I had good intentions of keeping this blog up-to-date as I have so much information to share. So, why did I only post once in April? Because I have fallen for Twitter. After the first few weeks of Twitter (in January) I was ready to give up. Now, I have 200 followers and new people are following me each day. And it’s kind of fun. I’ve connected with several other virtual assistants and we share tips and tricks with each other and share them with the rest of the Twitter community.

Not sure what Twitter is? Here is a short definition according to Wikipedia:
“Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users’ updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length which are displayed on the user’s profile page and delivered to other users who have subscribed to them (known as followers). Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow anybody to access them. Users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website”

So, while I’m always telling my clients to keep up with their blog, I haven’t been. In other words, do what I say and not what I do .

I am now on a “Tweet” schedule, so hopefully, I’ll have more time to blog so if you’re not a Twitter fanatic, you can still follow me here. If you are on Twitter, my Twitter name is hollyanthony – feel free to follow. I’ll be posting more on Twitter in the future.

Twitter is an investment of time and it’s not a good tool for everyone. For instance, if your target market is local, it doesn’t make much sense to have a  Twitter account. However, if you’re a global company, it might make a lot of sense. It also depends on your industry.

Thoughts? I’d love to read ‘em.
