How to Twitter Use Can Boost Your Business in Slow Economy



Does your Business need a boost in this slow Economy? If so, you are not alone! Many small businesses are jumping on the Twitter train hoping to gain some momentum in their business.

Twitter use for business is growing rapidly, and, considering that Twitter has over 50 million users, its not difficult to see why!

Timing is Everything. Twitter has surprised everyone by surpassing all other social media networks in its amazing growth. If your business isnt already using Twitter, dont wait any longer. The Twitter train is leaving the station and you want to be on it...every stop it makes could be more exposure, sales and profits for your business!

Twitter use could be the answer to your problems in that it can actually inject some momentum into your marketing plan without adding a lot of expense to it. Its really as simple as this: take the marketing strategies you currently use, add a great Twitter account, and you will have a marketing plan on steroids.

From there, you may want to make adjustments to your marketing plan to either save money or maximize your budget. Twitter use can definitely boost your business and you can use that momentum to make some changes to keep the sales coming in!

The beauty of using Twitter for business is that you can magnify whatever marketing efforts are already in progress by building a community of interested followers and including them in your efforts. Going viral on Twitter is the most effective and affordable marketing available today! Your tweets being retweeted to even more people, over a longer period of time...thats marketing gold!

Twitter is free and simple enough to use. However, effective Twitter use for business can get more complicated in that you want to build a large community and tweet good, relevant content to them. You want to connect with your followers so that they see the value in your product or service with a 140 character message. Its well worth it, though, and it will pay off.

If you already use Twitter for your business, congratulations and keep building your Twitter following. If you havent joined the fun yet, its not too late...get your Twitter account up and running sooner than later. Get your business in front of this wave while you still have time!

LG Q2 profits climb thanks to cost cutting but mobile business flounders

The Verge



Korean manufacturer LG Electronics has reported Q2 net profits of 159 billion won ($138 million), up 46 percent from the second quarter of last year. Attributable largely to a program of cost reductions and a shift away from low-margin products such as tablets, the jump comes amid a 10.6 percent decline in overall takings. While LGs home entertainment, appliance, and air conditioning divisions performed strongly, revenues from the companys mobile business fell 28.5 percent year-on-year.

LG Mobile Communications Company made a 57 billion won ($49 million) operating loss in the second quarter, which the company attributes to marketing expenses for devices such as the Optimus 4X HD. Reuters notes that LG has been squeezed from both ends of the mobile market in recent months, with Chinese manufacturers ZTE and Huawei putting pressure on the low end and the premium segment proving difficult to crack. LGs mobile division reported a 22 percent increase in smartphone shipments as a proportion of overall sales, but much of this can be attributed to a decline in demand for its lower-end feature phones.

LG Home Entertainment Company has posted far more positive results — while overall sales declined 5.8 percent year-on-year, Q2 operating profit more than doubled to 216 billion won ($188 million). The companys Cinema 3D TVs performed particularly well, and LG stresses that it will continue to "aggressively promote" the technology to drive further sales. It expects general demand for TVs to increase into next year, due partly to growing sales in the developing world. Whether this will be enough to jumpstart overall revenue growth in the coming quarters remains to be seen.
