Engage

The best way is to think of your own experiences. How often do companies reach out to you directly to take your feedback, solve a problem, or address your query? Won’t you love it if they do that more often?

 

So, get out there are do it more often. Don’t stick to the clichéd thanks to a new follower. Try to be personal and promote a positive and professional customer experience.

Target Your Email Lists with Twitter Ads

 

Your email lists include people who you have chosen to have more engagement. Therefore, the best strategy would be to target this relevant audience with your ads. Since they have already shown you that they are interested, they will be willing to see your ads. Make use of tailored audiences and upload all your email lists. When you have something that you want to use for promotion, Twitter will use those email addresses including all the registered users to target them.

 

Make Use of the Right Hashtags
