This year I have decided to embrace Twitter. And I’ve become a bit of a fan for business and personal use. But it can take some time to compose and curate valuable tweets to share with your audience.
If you use Twitter to share relevant, interesting, and funny tidbits with your followers – specifically on the topic of #marketing – here are some unbeatable tweetables you can steal and use, today.
Follow these simple steps below:
- Step 1: Copy a tweet
- Step 2: Paste tweet into your twitter
- Step 3: Hit “Tweet” button
OR
- Step 1: Click the “Tweet this!” link next to each tweetable. Voilà!
Done and done!

If you tag me @lsp_s, I’ll retweet and like your post! [But not required for use. ;)]

Tweet-Writing Done for the Day!
Hopefully this list of tweetables gets you moving on your social media goals. If nothing else, schedule one to go out per day for a whole month!
As a suggestion, Hootsuite is a great free option for managing the scheduling of posts. Compose or curate your tweetable content in batches to best leverage your time and mental focus. Then, when you check back into Twitter throughout the day you can concentrate on engaging with others and use Twitter to the fullest.
See you in the Twittersphere.
