6. Prepare to simulcast. Free services like HelloTXT.com let you use your tweets for the status messages on your other social network profiles on Facebook or LinkedIn. This is a good way to get more return on your Twitter investment but make sure you’ll be able to reply when people also respond outside of Twitter. Not all tweets will make sense off-Twitter, so only simulcast when your tweet can stand on its own e.g. shared links, tips or answers to Twitter’s famous “What are you doing?”
