As an artist, finding the right followers on Twitter can sometimes feel as though you’re searching for the proverbial needle in a haystack and if you’re using Twitter as a way to market your art it can be a lonely place if you’re surrounded by culture vultures. Building the right Twitter network is not as easy as it first appears.
Follow too many people too soon and you will lose track of what’s going on around you and fail to take note of your new network, follow the wrong types and you’ll end up in the wrong neighbourhood with no way out and follow nobody and you’ll be talking tweets to your good self for a long time to come. Fun for a few days but after a while it might send you just a little bit crazy!
So, what’s the alternative?
For me the answer comes in a neat little application called Who Should I Follow? which allows you to find followers who have something in common with you and follow them. Simple to understand and very easy to use.
Take a look at the video below.
So, how can this help you in marketing and selling your art?
In a lot of ways in fact. First, it allows you to find the right people to follow from day one, so no wasted time following the wrong people. It also has a few great little in-built tools to modify your search results so that they become more targeted to your needs.
- Target location
- Target other tweeters similar to those already suggested
- Target Twitter users who are more popular and have more followers
- Target tweeters with smaller lists to develop a more intimate relationship
All in all, this is a pretty cool art marketing tool in our opinion and one which we’ll be using to build our Twitter network in the right neighbourhood. Why not follow SellMyArt..
