Selling Pizza via Twitter (VIDEO)

This works great for communicating with people who are already fans of your pizza shop and using them to 'viralize' your marketing message via Retweets. The OBVIOUS problem of course, is that beyond this initial pool of locally recruited people who are GEOGRAPHICALLY LOCALIZED, you have no control re who follows. This is solved by SELF-SELECTION but twitter ads spread like viruses quickly specially if one of your followers is a social media octopus (many influence tentacles) like Guy Kawasaki.

So, for geographically localized products and services like Pizza--twitter and social media may be useful (within limits). For non-localized DIGITAL products, it's amazing!

I didnt think I would be into twitter but after a few days I can already see the huge $ potential it is awesome :thumbsup

Probably a great way to market college area cafes.
