Tweetlater.com is another useful tool for managing your Twitter account. Tweetlater.com which has been purchased by socialoomph.com is a great tool for boosting your productivity. I use it for three functions.
Keyword Alerts Search. I put into this function the key words I want to watch on Twitter. For example, I put in “website development”. Tweetlater will send me an email each week with the Tweets that have “website development” in the Tweets. I look at these Tweets and the bio’s and decide about my follow up. I have made some wonderful connections using this function. Just like Google Alerts, it works while I sleep!
Automatically sending direct messages to new followers. Did you ever call someone on the phone and it just rings and rings? You find it rude that someone doesn’t have a voice answering machine. Use Tweetlater to create an automatic message for new followers. To me this is like a voice answering machine. It says I got your message and here is my message. I use a simple “Thanks for the follow. I look forward to your Tweets and insights”. You can put controls on who you want to atomically follow and who you would like to ignore. Again it works while I sleep!
Schedule my Tweets. There are times and days when I know that I will not be active on my computer. I still want to keep my Twitter presence. I can do this by scheduling my Tweets for when I am away from my computer. I use 5-10 of my favorite Tweets and pre-schedule them for specific times. Tweetlater will automatically publish the Tweets at the schedule times. This is not spaming. At any point in time, there are new people on the Twitter stream. Why shouldn’t them see my quality Tweets?
Tweetlater has a number of other functions. It’s a free tool so go ahead and give it a try and see how it can give you better management over your Twitter marketing. www.tweetlater.com
