"When creating a social media strategy and content for Twitter, there are certain things to keep in mind to achieve established organization goals.

To help guide your tweets for your organization, here are several marketing tips and tricks that will help you maximize the impact of each tweet.

1. Hashtags

Hashtags are a great way for users to find tweets on specific topics. Tweets with hashtags get twice the amount of engagement than tweets without. It's important to not overuse hashtags. Only hashtag common searches, trends and/or topics that are applicable to your industry or to the content you are posting about..."

"One aspect of marketing you may be neglecting is your mobile strategy. Over 3.5 billion people own mobile devices globally, which means you're leaving a lot of money on the table if you're not doing everything possible to reach smartphone users.

If you need more context, consider this; the average person spends 3.3 hours on their smartphone every single day. You can maximize sales and conversions by looking for opportunities to put your business front and center while your target audience uses their phones. The thing is, mobile users have slightly different behaviors and interests when compared to their desktop counterparts.

Our goal today is to reveal four effective mobile marketing strategies you can use to help your brand thrive following the new year.."

"1. Optimize for voice search. The popularity of products like Google Home and Alexa have created a HUGE boom in the usage of voice search. Almost half the world's population currently uses it, and that will only grow in 2021. Just because you are optimizing for text/typing search doesn't mean you are optimized for voice search.

The optimization for voice search is different from text. (think about how you type in google vs. what you say to Alexa) For instance, when you on your mobile phone and typing in Google looking for a good Indian restaurant, you might type in 'Indian restaurant near me'.

But to Alexa you say, 'Alexa, what is the closest Indian restaurant to me right now'. See the difference? Voice search is more conversational as you normally speak vs. just typing in a few words on google. Making sure your Google My Business profile is updated and detailed is the best way to ensure you are updated for voice search..."

"They believe they just need to write a message that's so interesting and so compelling that recipients have no choice but to click through or respond.

And yes, if you nail your initial email, that's great, but this is leaving you with a very small margin for error. If anything is off - the timing, the subject line, the messaging - your email will get you nothing but crickets.

That's why follow-ups are the most important part of any cold email campaign..."

"Much of their discussion has to do with the current mechanization of selling that's become popular in the SDR/AE approach to selling. This assembly line process starts with a widget (let's call them customers), being passed from person to person down the line until they come out closed or on the reject (loss) pile. The while point of this process has little to do with the customer, and more to do with maximizing the volume and velocity of moving customers through the assembly line..."

"For recruitment agencies, the challenge extends to cover anxious clients and wary candidates, a combination of uncertain elements that can make day-to-day work difficult. To that end, we've opted to discuss how recruitment CRM streamline operations for companies shifting to a remote work model.

Centralizing data & easy software integration

As a recruitment agency shifts its operations to a remote model, the need for multiple software solutions might become overwhelming. Prior to the remote craze that seems to be here to stay, recruitment agencies were, and still are, able to increase their productivity levels, centralize recruitment data, and put innovative tools to use in order to maximize efficiency and minimize repetitive, menial tasks..."
