5 Twitter Marketing Ideas

If you have used Twitter enough you probably realize that people are using it quite regularly as a marketing tool. Either completely blatant, and horribly wrong, or you may see some have very unique ideas. WE all know that social networking is a free marketing goldmine. Twitter is no different.

People link to stuff all the time, or make tweets about things that may, or may not be marketing. Celebrities telling you how to get rid of pimples fast is surely a good strategy. What are some unique ones you may not have heard about? Check these out and see if they make a difference.

Entrepreneur's 100 Most Brilliant Companies

There are all kinds of lists for companies. Usually it has to do with income statements and revenues. Like the Forbes lists that show us who is rolling in gold cars and swimming in epiduo pools. This one is a little different. Let's look at their criteria of a "What Makes a Company Brilliant":

"Good ideas are common," the aptly named British humorist Ashleigh Brilliant once said. "What's uncommon are people who'll work hard enough to bring them about."

Thank goodness, then, for the entrepreneurs on our annual list of 100 Brilliant Companies, who have coupled genius and execution to fantastic -- and, in many cases, fantastically lucrative -- ends. We picked 10 areas, some that have been booming for years (mobile tech, seniors) and some that are just now hitting their stride (social shopping, startup-to-startup), and spotlighted some of the most innovative and inspiring companies in each. The brilliance runs the gamut, from a deal site aggregator recognizing a void in a crowded sector to a service that simplifies the notoriously difficult process of creating an app.

Here's hoping that reading about all this brilliance will spark some in you.

Ok...fair enough. Interesting concept, and something different. To see the full list of companies and the brilliant ideas click here.
