How Twitter Can Help Your Business Today

in digital •  8 years ago  (edited)

  With the advent of personal computers and increased access to  the Internet, companies all of a sudden have a new way to reach out to  customers. By creating a website, people in search of those particular  goods or services could do a web search based on keywords and find what  they were looking for. However, that was pretty much the extent of the  relationship.


 Sure there are places on any given company website linked  but in using those, a customer often has to wait a minimum of 24  business hours before they even get a response from whomever is the  dedicated customer service agent at the time. Not to mention that  response is all too often lacking, and very rarely actually addresses  the issue at hand, leading to frustration and dissatisfaction by the  customer and a company who will continue to run things however they feel  like it — especially if they are one of very few competitors in the  market.

 Enter technology and the incredible advancements it brings with  it. Such advancements include the creation of social, real time websites  like Twitter. Twitter is remarkable in and of itself not only because it is face  paced in real time, but you can find just about anything you are looking  for in no time at all and it is all in short, easily read bursts of  information that is easily scanned for valuable content. Not only can you follow the happenings of your friends, favorite  celebrities and find information about anything from product reviews to  the best place to hang out with your friends and everything in between,  but now you, as a consumer have the platform with which to speak  directly to a representative from any given company in the country who  subscribes to Twitter. Too, as Twitter gains in popularity, it becomes  quite evident that if you are not using it, you will be left behind in  the technology that is the digital age. For companies, the benefits of using Twitter to reach consumers is  enormous. Think about this: if a consumer is having a hard time getting  through to a company spokesperson due to a problem or complaint with  their products, they are going to tell their friends, they are likely  going to tell their friends on Twitter and in an instant, thousands of  people will know about the problem and will often abruptly cease  interaction with that company as a result. However, if the company has a  Twitter account, they now have the ability to field questions and  concerns in real time which gives the consumer confidence in their  products and increase their value as it relates to customer service. 

Too, thousands of people will see the positive interaction and may  even begin shopping at that company. By engaging the Twitter technology,  companies are taking control of their own destiny by reaching out to  their customers in unprecedented ways. Additionally, Twitter also allows companies to promote sales and any  updated information like status or policy changes. Thanks to the  technology that brought us such great, instant websites like Twitter,  consumers and companies now have a voice that someone listens to in real  time.
