Can Twitter Help a Real Estate Investor?
When I first heard about Twitter, I groaned....another site for tweens and teens. My second thought was, "sounds like stalking to me." Well...I was wrong. Although there may be the young ones on there, you can choose categories to connect with. The category for real estate investing is in business. So the ones I am connected with so far are in that category. But, you can be connected with anyone you want.
On Twitter, it's called following when you choose those you want to follow. You can choose them according to their bio of interests. Then others can choose to follow you.
The question given to you is: "What are you doing now?" You answer with 147 characters or less. Such as the answer now would be: I am writing a new post for my blog: http://www.RealEstateInvestorGirl.com. This is called a Tweet. When they read this, it is possible that the ones reading this will click over to see the latest post.
How can you use this in real estate investing? Let's say that over time you have 1,000 people that are following you. If you have a property to rent or sell all you have to do is write something like this: "Just finished posting an ad for a 3bd. 2ba. rental $900mo.Marietta,Ga.then list the URL." First, the 1,000 people will see it. Then others on Twitter that just happen across it. Some of the 1,000 will be in areas away from your locale. Some will not need the rental. But some could need it. Others that don't need it will tell someone else that may need it. How much did this cost you? Nothing. Could you rent or sell property this way? Yes.
You might have noticed the section to the left that says Twitter update. In that section are my latest updates. Right above that is this link: http://www.twitter.com/kathcouch That is how you can find me on Twitter, and follow me. Go ahead, sign up at http://www.twitter.com then find me and start following. You might find out that I do more than writing Real Estate Investor Girl posts.
