Good Stuff Happens in 1:1 Meetings: Why you need them and how to do them well
I Am Falling In Love With Twitter Again
1. I am falling in love with Twitter again
As of last week, I was following over 3,000 people on Twitter. Seriously, like who can keep up. I wanted
to make a clean break with my Twitter account and start over. Not completely over, I had over 3,000
followers. I quickly created an account with Twit Cleaner. Twit Cleaner is amazing software that
analyzes your followers and places them in different categories, such as:
Trying To sell You Crap
Multiple @s
Nothing but links
Tweeting the Same Links All the time
Tweeting Identical tweets all the time
Not active (fewer than 10 tweets)
No activity in over a month
Don‟t interact with anyone
You can run a FREE report with Twit Cleaner and they will Direct Message (DM) you once the
completed report.

It‟s pretty cool to see your followers face to face and see what type of follower they are. The
Twit Cleaner will unfollow people for you, if you are following:
Up to 2,000 people (i.e. most users) – Free!
Up to 25,000 – $5 USD
Up to 50,000 – $10 USD
Otherwise – $20 USD
Ok.
Since I am absolutely cheap and not fond of paying for anything, I decided to unfollow everyone
and start over. First, I visited Twitter karma and now they are not allowed to do a “Bulk
Unfollow” anymore. Now that Twitter Karma was no good to me, I download Tweet Glide. I
use Tweet Glide because they do a bulk unfollow and I need to unfollow over 3,000 followers
now. I let go of everyone, I didn‟t know over 99% of my followers so there was no love lost. I
started to follow back people I knew and wanted to follow.
I went into my Social Oomph account and uncheck “Auto Follow” to stop from following
everyone who follows me. Contrary to what you‟ve heard, it is not “bedside manners” to follow
everyone who follow you back.

3. I also uncheck “Unfollow those who unfollow me” because that‟s just not playing nice. I will
follow any of interest to me; they don‟t have to follow me back. That‟s just life…on Twitter.
In the process I lost some followers because they still had their „Unfollow those who unfollow
me” checked. I am close to losing over half my followers. I am ok with that. I will rise again, but
this time with a more targeted twitter following.
I will search for people who are tweeting about the topics of my niche and reply back solutions
that will hopefully help. I will use TwitHawk.com service to find those conversations and to
reply back with my key solutions. TwitHawk.com search for keyword phrases requested by you,
and reply back with responses entered by you.
Maybe they will follow me, who knows, but I feel like I have more control over my Twitter
account.
