Found a very helpful article, from Small Biz Survival, entitled, "Filtering Twitter: Going from mostly noise to all conversation." Yes please!

It can get hard to find the good things from all the weight of STUFF that pours out every day.
Check it out! Small Biz Survival

Are You a Business Owner? 4 Steps to a Social Media Plan
1) Figure out exactly who your market is
If you are “shot-gunning” to everyone, you could be reaching no one. Think about it- who is your niche? It is much easier to reach specific people than to reach a mass audience.
2) Figure out where your niche audience is when they are online.
Are they young, so on Twitter? Are they professional and better reached through ezine newsletters, emails, and LinkedIn? What forums do they belong to? What membership groups? Find competitors of yours on Facebook fan pages and see who their followers Read more [...]

Do you have accounts on Facebook and twitter, and wonder what all the fuss is about? It seems a big time waster to you, but since everyone is talking about Social Media, how can they all be wrong?

Facebook added 100n million users in less than 9 months. Even more shocking, if Facebook were a country, Read more [...]

Ryan Holmes, the CEO of Vancouver-based HootSuite, a popular social media dashboard for groups, who offered five tips for tweeting entrepreneurs.
* Take off your selling hat. “You should think of Twitter as nine parts fun, interesting, engaging information and one part soft marketing,” says Holmes. “People tune out to self-promotional messaging.” If you establish yourself as a source of news, tips, and useful information on your industry, then your followers will be more receptive when you move (subtly) into promotion mode.
