Learn How To Find Valuable Feedback On Twitter For Any Purpose
When it comes to searching for specific feedback across social media platforms the first thing that comes to my mind is Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn. However, not everyone is on LinkedIn and due to the secrecy of Facebook it’s hard to quickly get the valuable feedback you are looking for. That’s why I prefer to use Twitter for this purpose.
This note is to talk about how to use this social network to find interesting feedback from expert followers in your niche to learn, get ideas and inspiration to improve your business.
Some facts About experts on Twitter
They usually tweet a question to encourage followers to interact in their tweets.
Their followers provide interesting feedback that helps generate new and fresh content for your blog or website.
They attract other experts. It’s very common to see experts following each other.
They have a public account, and Twitter doesn’t require you to have an account to see their activity. You can search from here
Most of them utilize their audience feedback in their presentations, case studies, blogs, and proposals.
They are active. At a minimum, they send a tweet per day
They usually retweet other interesting tweets from other experts.
When you visit an expert account on Twitter take advantage of your visit by checking what they are tweeting, and I am not referring to news or content they share. I am talking about questions they ask their audience to start a conversation.
Tracking experts Activity
Make a list of experts in your niche or find their official account
Check how often people comment on their tweets
Don’t follow experts just because they have a huge follower base. Most followers are silent and inactive.
Follow them if you notice their tweets are useful and valuable for you.
feedback from Hashtags vs Expert accounts
Feedback from hashtags are a mix of comments from the entire Twitter community including spammers. Most tweets are off-topic. The result is not always targeted nor filtered by niches.
Feedback from expert followers is targeted and filtered for your niche and most are being monitored by the expert.
Below is a perfect example of valuable feedback you can get from Twitter expert accounts that you can embedding in your blog, presentations, proposals and website.

Don’t start producing huge amounts of content until you fully understand your audience, especially a regular show. Content is time and is money.

You don't have to be on every single platform. Discover what's best for your market---where they live online, and create your community there.
