How do you determine who you follow back? Is it with an auto follow tool? Do you hand pick each and every one, and if you do, do you have a specific process for this?
I have been using Twitter since early 2007 and have tried many different ways to not only follow “real” accounts back, but to also cut down the actual time spent following back accounts.
Let me introduce you to the ”Three Strikes, You’re Out” tactic.
LinkedIn is a great way to connect with old co-workers and bosses, current and satisfied clients and other professionals that you know or want to reach out to, but because there is a lack of usage of your profile you may not be satisfied with the results you are getting. Maybe you get a request a week, maybe your profile is being looked at by a few people a day, but you know you should be drawing more eyeballs.
Here are some ideas to hopefully get you that traffic you are looking for and build your engagement and LinkedIn community both on your professional personal page and for your business.

We’ve always had a birthday tradition in my family where on our birthday we would buy something small for the other people in the family. It probably all started because one of us threw a fit or was upset that we didn’t have anything to open. Chances are good that it was me, nonetheless…… In keeping that tradition alive this blog post is the best present I could do considering there are so many of you that visit my blog daily. This is my way of saying thank you for encouraging me to share my tips, thoughts and journey this past year.
There are so many blog posts that talk about reasons why people wont follow or why they’ll unfollow an account onTwitter. These posts are very insightful, however simply show and point out the negatives of Twitter. I am personally guilty of focusing strictly on the negative rather than the positive which is why I want to share with you these tips/ reasons why people will follow you and your brand on Twitter.
