    I'm at the early stage of setting up my twitter / facebook pages

    I was wondering if anyone else was in a similar situation I was thinking we could refer each others pages / retweet etc if they are relevant

    Looking for maybe 10 people. I'm based in Dublin

    Yea exactly. I'm spending some cash on getting views & exposure on twitter. I was thinking we could promote each others online presence and get more views/likes/subscribers

    Theres already a facebook thread for this purpose, use the search function. What happens in most cases is people post their link and expect a like and a follow but fail to return the favour.

    I would suggest just putting the time into reading up how best to use twitter and facebook for your business and coming up with good content not just looking for followers. Followers on their own do nothing, content is king and without you just are setting up social media accounts for the sake of having them.

    You do need to tailor your marketing depending on your customers. Pm me your link. I am currently only learning the ropes on twitter but am ok on facebook.

    Completely agree. We are creating our own content. We create videos. But just starting so not many people viewing our work.

    Will look for the fb thread

    With good content the numbers will grow and at least that way they are customers you want to engage with. Just getting people to randomly like or follow gets the numbers up but theres no guarantee those people are interested in your product or looking to engage with you. Its better to work on it and slowly build up genuine potential customers than just have numbers there for the sake of it. Keep at it and you will get there..

    The previous thread is here - as you can see it died off mainly due to what i said previously. People posting but not returning the likes.

    I have started a new one here so feel free to post in it and will see how it goes this time, please follow the rules outlined.
