If DELL is doing it then Twitter and Social Media work!

Everyone is talking about the monetization of Twitter. Socialize means monetize in the web 2.0 world.  The site boasts millions of unique visits a day and monumental growth from 2008 to 2009. But are they making any money?  The answer is who gives a shitttte if Twitter makes money. 

The question all of us should be asking is how can MY BUSINESS make money with Twitter?

Dell seems to be answering this question very well. It’s being reported that Dell is crediting Twitter for $6.5 million in sales. Dell had reported earlier in the year that Twitter was responsible for only $3 million in sales but in the last 6 months as popularity for the social networking site has grown even more, they have made an additional $3.5 million in sales.

DellOutlet provides a combination of services. Dell employees will Tweet daily deals, customer service responses, and tech support, you know the Twitter stuff:)

Although $6.5 million is less than one percent of Dell’s yearly profits, it’s still a strong indication of Twitter’s potential for sales. Dell has committed 100 employees to their Twitter efforts. It will be interesting to see how they step up their game in light of these profits, 2010 is around the corner and wondering what’s up their sleeve?!?!?

Pay attention to these Social media marketing platforms and micro-blogging sites.  is brilliant platform that offers way more than just catching up with friends.  On-line business and email-based promotions is increasing daily with plenty of benefits to companies and by featuring links to Twitter, Facebook, and others, your business depends on it!  WHY? people like to have a social connection, an emotional interaction, and a presence to being identified!  These sites are for relationship building as well as sales.

I  find Twitter, Facebook and email all serve very different purposes in my  marketing strategy.  I use multiple Twitter accounts for short messages, Facebook for networking, blog marketing, and email campaigns for in-depth information and updates.  

It has previously been suggested that could replace email marketing as an economical substitute for businesses.   A tip for SEO, search engine optimizition is ‘tweet’ the subject line of email marketing messages and provide your url links to the hosted versions, sites of your campaigns.  Incorporating social media tools like Twitter into email marketing campaigns can add “unique benefits” for your business.
