39 Twitter Quotes That Will Change Your Life or @ least change the way you think about Twitter!
@compete
we started tweeting back in 2007 to
spread the word about Compete &
now, here we are, thinking even
further about how Twitter can
amplify a single message
“There is no shortcut to building a […] community. You have to work hard and create your own movement one reader at a time.” @markwschaefer
“When you’ve got 5 minutes to fill, Twitter
is a great way to fill 35 minutes.”
@mattcutts
“You are not believable until someone else endorses you.” @pdmclean
“A creative idea plus a fresh network is the best way to go from zero to millions.” @peretti #ignition2011
“It's harder to create an original tweet than it is to retweet. It's harder to find metaphor than it is to work through a to do list. Hard work, true. But worth it.”@thisissethsblog
“There’s no short-cut. The only viable
and legitimate method to begin to
attract targeted followers is to find
them, follow them, and hope they
follow you back.”@markwschaefer“On Twitter, you can be
a musician or a radio
station - create the
music yourself or filter
the best for your
listeners.”
@iamerickeating“With Twitter, it’s power is in its simplicity.” @willfrancis
“You don't have to speak monosyllables to be simple. What we mean by simple is finding the core of the idea.” @heathbrothers
“While face-to-face is just as important as it ever
was, now that we’ve got all kinds of new tools let us
tighten bonds in between those in-person
moments.” @chrisbrogan“Social is a core human behavior,
not a destination.” @christianism
#adtech“On Twitter, you get 140
characters to be worth
paying attention to, no
matter who (or what) you
are.”
@graemem“There’s more value in messages shared publicly because more
opportunities arise. A kind of social alchemy takes place when a
seemingly valueless message finds its way to someone for whom it
strikes a chord.” @toomuchnick“Given a limit of 140 characters, people consistently reaffirm that creativity is a renewable resource.” @biz
“Platforms will change & shift. What goes in them are stories. Invest in great storytelling” @wnd
“The biggest mistake we see companies make when they first hit Twitter is to think about it as a channel to push out information.” @sarahm @timoreilly
“We live in a world
where engagement
with your consumer is
critical. The one-to-
many paradigm is
gone. Are you
prepared?”
@iProspect“The internet has
turned what used to
be a controlled, one-
way message into a
real-time dialogue
with millions”
@daniellesacks“Listen and observe what consumers are really doing, and challenge traditional thinking.” @readmark
“The key
development
with Twitter is
how we've jury-
rigged the
system to do
things that its
creators never
dreamed of.”
@stevenbjohnson“There are a few
core values for
social media at
Zappos:
transparency,
authenticity, and
value. The audience
wants to see them
with their guard
down - they want to
know who is behind
the computer
answering their
question or taking
their order.”
@nichole_kelly“Conversations aren’t artificial
or unnatural. They’re just good
business.” @pgillin“Today thanks to social media, happy customers and
unhappy customers can tell thousands of people their
feelings about a company’s service or products with
just a few clicks.” @davekerpen“We don't think it at all moronic to start a phone call with a friend by asking how her day is going. Twitter gives you the same information without your even having to ask. Breakfast-status updates turned out to be more interesting than we thought.” @stevenbjohnson
“It’s not just about consuming content,
but sharing it, passing it on, and
adding to it.” @ariannahuff“In order to improve the
conversation with
consumers, you need the
right tools which help you
understand consumers and
how data points drive
outcomes.”
@mkatz_iC“Our brand really stays engaged by learning and doing research. It means really understanding how fans connect with us, so we can then continue to connect with them.” @mdavis2
“If you want to
build a
presence in the
social media
platform, then
you need to be
present.”
@unmarketing“Companies
have a choice
on whether or
not they do
social media;
the choice is
how well they
do it”
@equalman“People embraced
social media because
communicating makes
people happy, it’s
what we do. It’s why
we carved pictures
into rocks. It’s why we
used smoke signals.
It’s why ink won. And
if someone ever
develops a tool that
allows us to
communicate
telepathically, we’ll be
all over that, too.”
@garyvee“I use Twitter to connect to things I care about. It's for
topics and ideas, and for connecting with people I know
and don't know. Twitter is for staying informed about
what's happening in the world, and in my world
specifically.” @adambain“Digital means that it is
really hard to pretend. If
you have a story and you
don’t believe in it or it
isn’t true, it gets found
out. Whereas if you do
believe it and live it and it
is genuine, then that
comes through.”
@jetsetdrew“If you do not have great
content it does not matter at all
how you deliver it.”
@unmarketing“Not only does everyone in social
media have a unique presence, but that
everyone can have a unique
experience.” @schneidermike“Twitter Culture is key
to winning in a
digitally enabled
world.”
@charliehiscocks“The nice thing about Twitter is the architecture of visibility. Email is invisible unless you reach out to someone directly. With Twitter, anyone can follow you.” @timoreilly
“Simply shouting instructions to visit another cocktail party/water
cooler/building/your-metaphor-of-choice-here will lead to you
ending up ignored, standing in a corner and telling yourself that this
new link is really, really worth reading—really.”@graemem“Even social media needs brand
management” @jbell99“Twitter is not a technology. It’s a
conversation. And it’s happening with
or without you.” @ charleneliWant to learn more
