Using Twitter for Freelance Business Research

Media_httpfreelancesw_rdlcf

Twitter is a is a treasure trove of knowledge with jewels spilling out at the seams. Even universities and colleges are getting in on the act.

The only problem is, mixed amid the genuine pearls are plenty of fakes. On top of that, one person’s rock is another’s diamond. What’s useful to me may be useless for you.

As a freelancer, you can use Twitter to discover the needs of potential clients, spark up new ideas for a dusty old project, see what others are saying about you and your work, and train yourself in new skills. (You can also use it to find clients and job opportunities. I explain how here).

But unless you know where to find what’s relevant to you, Twitter can seem like a big waste of time.

In this article, I show you how to use Twitter as a powerful research tool to give you the edge you need as a freelancer.
