Congratulations to these Twitter rock stars:
Re-tweeting what your happy customers told you is the easiest and best way to market yourself.
Mentioning conversations that feature competing businesses is always a good way to communicate how open, and confident you are.
Notifications, notifications and more notifications fills the twitter page of this legendary Bar! Obviously it works - they have 2155 followers.
Another local business using Constant Contact, clearly shows that integrating your Email Marketing campaign and your Social Media needs is a smart way to go forward.
Tweeting personally to your customers on their B'day is an awesome way to show customer loyalty.
Uncle Fattys certainly knows their customers' sweet spot - with offers like this, who can resist!
Quirky nuggets about your business gives your business a personality and helps customers relate to it.
This bar keeps reminding people about all its specials at regular intervals. Surely, at some time, you'll give in to the temptation!
Putting interesting pictures on your planned event instead of stating it in text is a good way to get your followers to engage with your tweets. Eg: http://twitpic.com/58uag7
Telling your customers about tonight's events is one thing...but tweeting about it with @mention of who is coming conveys "red carpet".
