These #hashtags give you the opportunity to tweet about something near and dear to your follower’s hearts and connect with them on a personal level.

5. Twitter Helps You Reach New Audiences

One of the fastest ways to reach new audiences is to engage on Twitter. But you can’t just like or retweet.

Β 

Your engagement has to be meaningful. Meaning, you need to add something of value. For example, add your impressions or insights, tell your followers why you like it, why it’s funny, or why/how this information will benefit them.

Β 

Retweet the tweets of influencers, current or past customers, and business partners and associates. And make sure to @mention them in your original tweets. This invites them to do the same and gets you in front of their followers and their follower’s followers.
