Twitter on the Go

Making the most of Twitter is greatly facilitated with mobile phones. Whether you want to Tweet, or simply encourage your customers to read your Tweets, here are some features that can help.

Fast Follow

This is a simple way for people to get information they care about in real-time, a way to follow an account from a phone without signing up. For example: users can text 'follow twitter' to 40404 and receive Tweets from @twitter sent to their phone. Promoting this feature in a storefront window or a website is a great way to stay engaged with your customers, regardless if they're on Twitter or not.

Notifications

From a computer, or from a phone, Twitter users can elect to receive text message updates when your account Tweets. Mobile notifications can be a great way to promote exclusive content or coupons, among other promotions. If someone has signed up to be notified of your Tweets, whenever you tweet, they'll get it as an SMS message on their phone.

Pro Tip: Tell your customers to click the phone icon next to the Following button on your profile on Twitter.com to receive your company's tweets on their phone.
