In this section, we will take you through the stages of making money from twitter
The first thing you need is obviously a twitter account. But, you cant just use any twitter account. You need a twitter account that is targeted. Lets say, you want to promote a weight loss product. You have to build your twitter accuont by following and getting followers who are interested in losing weight. There are a few great
free tools like twellow.com that can help you speed up the process of finding twitter users with specific interests.



Find a product on Clickbank
Sign up with Clickbank if you don’t already have an account with them (for those of you who don’t know, CB is an affiliate marketing network where you can find products to promote as an affiliate marketer). Use CB to find a related product. If you based your twitter account on “weight loss”, then you need to choose a product that can help people lose weight. Products like, diets programs, work out plans and etc.


Promote
When you reached at least 1500 or so followers, you can start promoting your product. It is important to build a relationship with your twitter followers. While you are waiting to gain x amount of followers, make meaningful tweets. If you find a cool site, a video, free product or a great article that is related to your niche (in this case, weight loss), be sure to tweet about it. These kinds of activities will help you establish yourself as an authority and a trusted person on the subject, which will be extremely helpful when it comes to promoting your chosen product and actually making a sale.


Tips for succeeding in making money promoting products on twitter:

Provide value
People are more likely to take your recommendation and buy a product, if you have been really helpful in the past and have provided them with useful stuff. That’s the only way you can make money on twitter promoting products.

Be creative
A lot of people use twitter to promote their stuff, but most of them use traditional methods to do that. When promoting your product, try to make your tweets sound as if you are communicating with a friend and not just selling. Be creative when it comes to promoting. For example, instead of tweeting, “Lose weight with x product” tweet “wow, x(product) is really good, Jim has lost 2 pounds last week using it…”. This method is used by many successful twitter marketers and it is very effective.

Keep ad tweets to a minimum
Don’t bombard your followers with sales tweets. It’s a big turn off. Most of your followers will unfollow you if they sense that you are only there to sell. Keep your “advertising tweets’ to a minimum. It’s usually a good idea to keep advertising tweets at 1 after every 6 or 7 normal tweets or so. Use your normal tweets to provide useful information about your niche to your followers.
Twitter is really a great tool if you can harness the power of it. A lot of people are making money on twitter by simply using it to promote and attract potential costumers. Of course, you don’t have to limit yourself to Clickbank products, you can promote any kind of product. But, whether its an amazon.com product, eBay or your own products, what’s important is that you truly believe in that product and its usefulness.
Help your twitter followers by genuinely tweeting about truly useful stuff that they can use, build a relationship with them, and most importantly, don’t promote any crappy product you come across. Promote only products that you know and believe are good and can help your followers. That is basically it! Now, you know how to make money with Twitter!
