are you twittering yet? here’s what can happen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

andrew rose, director of marketing and business development at naden\/lean cpas<\/a> in timonium, md., reports on the association for accounting marketing<\/a> listserv that he went from twitter<\/a> newbie to twitter success story. (the listserv alone, by the way, is worth the price of aam membership.)<\/p>\n

here’s his tale:<\/p>\n

i was a little leery of jumping on the bandwagon, but after the talk, i began to formulate a strategy. i put up four accounts, one personal, one for the firm, one for a niche practice area that is hot, and one for a project i’m working on related to the niche practice area.<\/em><\/p>\n

once i set them up, i started twitter searching to see what people were saying, er, tweeting, about us. you can imagine my surprise when i found a post related to an industry niche blog we run describing how valuable our advice was. it was from someone i didn’t know. so i began following him and thanked him for recognizing us in this public fashion, unsolicited.<\/em><\/p>\n

and, the kicker? his tweet, reposting a link to our industry blog now ranks in the top 20 for a keyword in an organic google search<\/a>….<\/em><\/p>\n

not bad eh?<\/em><\/p>\n

not bad at all, indeed.<\/p>\n

rose and like-minded cpa firm marketers will be swapping more stories at aam’s annual conference in austin, june 2-5<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 see you there.<\/p>\n

and don’t forget to follow the firm at www.twitter.com\/nadenlean<\/a>.<\/p>\n
