How To Profit From Twitter Without Really Trying

Do you want to know how to obtain joint ventures, meet people you can produce products with, get people to promote your products and jump start your business for low to no cost to you? Well how about Twitter? And you can do all of this now, even if you don't know anyone to start, even if you don't have any sort of list to begin with, even if you're a newbie, even if you're a Mac or Linux user, even if you can't attend seminars, even if ...., well you get the drift, anyone can do this.

 You're hearing about it everywhere these days, but do you really know how to get started using it? If you use twitter properly, you can:

 * Meet people who have lists and can promote your product.
 * Meet people who have the know how to move your business forward.
 * Connect with people like you, so you don't have that feeling you're in this all alone.
 * Avoid the bickering, arguing junk that goes on in forums.

 One thing I hate about forums is a few people post all the time and become power brokers, even if they're obnoxious, don't have any clue what they're doing and so forth. Forums also attract a lot of negativity. Twitter is a totally different and refreshing experience.

 So what are some the best tips on getting the most out of Twitter?
 1. Sign up at Twitter.com
 2. Keep the negative junk off Twitter - Don't use Twitter to try to get that refund or resolve disputes. The purpose is marketing. Use it to bring positive energy and meet people.
 3. Follow people who are in your niche.- Go to Twitter.com. Click on "find people." Type in names of people who write blogs in your niche, who have affiliate products and who are influencers.
 4. Make friends - Do NOT go onto Twitter pitching people. Make friends. Be a sociable person.
 5. Learn the art of the RT - RT stands for "retweet". There's a little icon that says RT. When you retweet someone's message, you're passing it on so the people on your list can see it. This is the ultimate form of sharing.
6. Observe for a week - Spend a week or so just watching others and learning what happens on Twitter before you jump in head over heels.
7. Share your positive energy -I said this before. But I'm going to repeat. Positive energy attracts other positive people.
8. Give first - Do NOT ask people to promote you or your product. GIVE first. Offer to promote THEM!
9. If someone really annoys you, you can go to twitter.com, find their name and on the right side is link where you can block them.
10. Offer viral ebooks and reports on Twitter. - Instead of blatantly promoting your product, it's better to offer a little report or ebook with a decent chance of others retweeting it.
11. When you run across a cool web site or resource tweet it to your list.
12. Go out of your way to promote others to your Twitter list. They'll reciprocate some time in some way.
13. When you find a good blog post on someone's blog, pass it along to your Twitter list.
14. Learn to Twitter on your iPhone or cell. Yes, you can do that too.
15. Understand that in the big picture your goal is to find people who have lists and can promote your products then make friends with 'em.
16. Inspire others to go for it and pursue what they know they should pursue but don't have the courage to do it. Be a cheerleader for people's highest and best interests.
17. Use Twitter strategically to meet and network with list owners.

 Do NOT end up twittering away time you really should be using to create products or do other promotions. No one really cares what you eat, when you have to go to the bathroom, etc.

 Use Twitter. Don't let it use you.
