Top 5 Reasons why Twitter should keep the 280 limit and Trump is not one of them.

San Diego,CA-(blog) Twitter is experimenting with expanding the 140 character limit to 280. I am excited to say that I was lucky enough to be included in that beta group, and I dig it.

Back in the day when Twitter launched, I remember trying to explain what Twitter was. We used to say it’s mini blogging... which then led to the question...what is blogging? Well it's writing on a blog. OK what is a blog, etc. etc. etc. The explanation I like to give now is that it’s more like texting to the public. A normal tweet has 140 character limit, a text has 160 the new beta Twitter is 280.

TOP 5-10 Reasons why Twitter should keep the expanded 280 character limit.

1. Express Yourself : With the 280 character limit, I find it easier to craft a more natural complete thought. I also find myself actually being able to use adjectives rather than sacrificing them for brevity. This according to Twitter’s blog post is exactly the reason for the expansion, “9% of all Tweet in English hit the 140 character limit.”.

2. Quicker learning curve for beginners : For those new to Twitter or who never got quite started on Twitter, the 280 character limit will help attract a new or renewed audience.

3. Better Grammar: Speaking of using adjectives, you also get to write in multiple, more correct sentences. I find myself being able to express a complete thought and then add #hashtags. Yes, I am still including some of the text within a sentence structure #hashtagged, but it’s a lot more forgiving and interesting.

4. More characters means more #Hashtags: If your goal is to be read or seen and grow your Twitter following and increase your brand, then the consistent use of #hashtags helps.For example, #actorslife #setlife #entrepreneur these are hashtags I use often, and because of it I get new followers and traffic from those consistent and expanded hashtags.

"Twitter's new 280 limit means more characters which means more #hashtags which means more traffic." -DavidKamatoy.guru

5. Twitter is relevant again: Social media has a tendency to be quickly generational. (Those damn kids on MySpace. Back in my day we used Compuserve and we liked it.) This current generation has a tendency to move towards Instagram and Snapchat vs. Twitter and Facebook. I tell people of all generations that we must communicate with people on whatever platform that they are on. So while your friends are on Instagram, the people hiring you might be on LinkedIn and the people you need to impress may be on Facebook. That and posting a resume on Snapchat doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Twitter has a tendency to be more in the middle and have the best of both worlds. Which is why I focus my efforts here and I try get my clients both in entertainment and business to do the same. Even if you have a dominant presence on other platforms, I still have people focus on Twitter.

Many of the early adopters have a strong presence on Twitter: popular entertainers, business people, platforms, and yes even President Trump is part of the reason that Twitter is relevant. You can be as light or as heavy as you would like, but the fact that the platform allows that lean towards the intellectual makes a lot of sense. Also, Twitter algorithms are a lot less restrictive than Facebook. In Facebook your posts are extremely limited and you often need to pay to play for more exposure. In Twitter your tweets and interactions have a better chance of being seen, and vice versa. Especially now with the character expansion..

Also Twitter has been the most open towards API integration, it seems. The ability to use programs like Hootsuite, Socialoomph, Klout and Manageflitter to manage the data and build a following is exciting.

Random points: As a reference point you can read the blog post about their reasoning for expanding the character limit here.

https://blog.Twitter.com/official/en_us/topics/product/2017/Giving-you-more-characters-to-express-yourself.html

Not everyone has the 280 limit (including President Trump), and so popular programs that allow you to post from their sites are still using a 140 character default. So I am actually copying and pasting into Twitter natively so I can expand my message.

Financially: Let’s face it Twitter is still trying to figure that one out. But they continue to hold their insane evaluation. So hopefully this experiment will be fruitful to them. If Twitter ever wants to fly my team in to brainstorm on how this thing can make money, I would love to do that.

Conclusion: I hope it sticks. I think it helps the English language. I think it helps us express ourselves, and finally I think that we as users get more out of it with the ability to add #hashtags and be seen by more relevant viewers.

Twitter’s Algorithm Update & What It Means for Brands

Tri-Tip Tuesday 1.31.2016 Control The Flow of Information via Google News / Scholar

Welcome to Tri-Tip Tuesday where we share important thoughts about social media, marketing, and anything else that comes to mind. We are always looking for good ideas that we can develop for future TTT posts.

Tip #1 Control what you read.

Back in my day we had these books called encyclopedias; now we have Wikipedia and the power of the internet search engines literally at our fingertips 24/7. So now more than ever we need to control the feed of information. It’s so easy via Facebook and social media to spend a lot of time reading what is trending, and some some of that may be fake news.  But is what is really trending specific to your business or specific to your topics of interest? What is at your top of mind awareness?

If the quality of your life is what you focus on then choose to feed your brain with topical information that matters. Some of the greatest minds in the world are avid readers. Start by reading or focusing on material that matters for 20 min. a day.

What to read?

Tip #2 Google News and others...

You may already know about Google News, but just in case you didn’t, here’s the point. You can use Google news to “Personalize Your News Settings” as you can on other news search engines like Yahoo.

You can also set up news alerts to email you updates based on topics or keywords on a daily, weekly, or per mention email alert. You can even “narcissistically” enter your own name or brand.

The good news and bad news is that Google's algorithm takes you to information that you trend. So if you're in the process of changing your focus, your search engine relevance may take a bit to follow. So what  I do is I often scan my other browsers for what’s trending. It’s also a media trick to see who has the bigger PR budget sometimes.

#3 Google Scholar

Google Scholar takes it to a whole new nerdy level: “Google Scholar broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research.”

Imagine knowing the most recent relevant published references to your interests and business. We have this set up for Email Marketing, Neutropic, etc. Oddly I typed in our last name and learned something I did not know about a distant family member.

Final thoughts...

I teach this acting class and at the top of the class I ask , “What did you watch or read that inspired you this week?” The idea here is that we consume so much data as just popcorn or fluff. We are talking hours of Netflix, Fake News and Video Games. So why not take some of that time back under your control and get smarter by controlling what you read on a daily basis to start for 20 min. a day?

Tri-Tip Tuesday 1.24.2017 - Biz com on Social Media, Business Cards, Proper Apostrophes

Welcome to Tri-Tip Tuesday (#TriTipTues) where we share important thoughts about social media, marketing, and anything else that comes to mind. We are always looking for good ideas that we can develop for future TTT posts.

Social Media and Messages - Just Say No

Social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. have become more popular as methods of communication. However, these are not the best formats if you have important business to conduct. We have had the problem of a contact sending a message via one of these platforms, and then wondering why they never heard back from us. Here is the problem - volume.

If you have a large number of contacts, it is not unusual for several of them to send you messages on social media platforms. This will cause earlier messages to be pushed down, sometimes to the point that the disappear from the short list that you see when you open the message list. Then as new messages come in, you lose track of how many you still need to look for. Eventually your contact becomes upset, even though it was their mistake that led to the situation. And yes, it is a mistake.

How do you avoid this situation? Simple - use email. Even though some people think email is out of date, it is still the best electronic method for contacting people with important messages - especially business messages. Email has many advantages over social media messaging. First, and possibly most important, it is easily searchable. If your contact sends you some important information on a social media platform, you may have to scroll back through possibly dozens of unimportant conversations before you find what you are looking for. With email you can simply put the topic into the search and pull up a limited number of choices to check. Email also is superior for including files that your contact may need. Finally, it is simply more professional than social media.

Our new internal policy at KMG is email, text, phone call as a priority for business communications. Additionally, we now ask recipients for confirmation of receipt as opposed to a passive-aggressive, “Hey, I sent you a message.”

All-in-all, email should be your go-to method for all business and other important electronic communication. Social media can be the start of the conversation, but once it gets serious then move to email and save social media for your cat pictures and sarcastic memes.

Business Card Tip

Have you ever found a business card in your wallet or on your desk and wondered, “What was this all about?” Admit it, you have. Probably multiple times. If you are in business, you meet people nearly every day, and you likely receive dozens of business cards each week. So how can you prevent that hot prospect you met from having one of those “Who was this?” moments when they look at your card? Simple - write a note.

This sounds so simple, but it does take some planning. First, you need to make sure that your business card has space, either on the front or the back, where you can write a short, targeted note. You also need to have a card that can be written on. Many people carry fancy slick-paper cards that won’t take any kind of pen, defeating this handy tip. By using  a simple card stock, you give yourself the opportunity to be different in a way that your contacts will remember.

This is one of the reasons why you can actually order cards with a coating on one side and not on the other or none at all. We are leaving space on our current card design specifically for this reason.

The message doesn’t have to be long - in fact think of it as your handwritten Tweet. It can be something to the effect of, “Great talking about marketing your product. Call me,” or “Would like to discuss how our projects might fit together.” The idea here is to leave them with just enough information that they remember why they got your card in the first place, but not so much that they don’t feel the need to contact you. Also, remember to sign your name, even just your first name, to make it more personal.

The Writer’s Corner - Proper Apostrophes

Remember to use an apostrophe only for a possessive (John’s car) or for a contraction (don’t). Using an apostrophe in a plural is confusing and shows that you might not understand basic grammar.

For example:

“I took my dog’s for a walk” would lead a grammar-knowledgeable person to ask, “Your dog’s what?” You might say, “I took my dog’s puppies for a walk,” or “I took my dogs (multiple) for a walk.”

What if you have multiple dogs that have a single house, for example? Then you put the apostrophe after the plural as in “I cleaned out the dogs’ house.”

One of the more confusing uses or non-uses of the apostrophe is “its/it’s.” Remember that “it’s” is a contraction of “it is” and so it requires the apostrophe. On the other hand “its” is a possessive pronoun similar to “hers” and “his” and does not require an apostrophe (yes, a possessive does not always need the apostrophe).

Good writing takes concentration, commitment and attention to detail.

Blogging Again..."The more I have to write about the less time I have to write."

 

This is me with Kickboxing Champion Lisa King. (Yes! I should be blogging about this.)

"The more I have to write about the less time I have to write." - David Kamatoy, juggler aka blogger

In the age of social media blogging continues to be extremely important. A blog should be the central HUB for all content you create because you own it. In then should be shared via social media leading the public back to your site / brand. 

CONTENT IS KING AGAIN

Content will always be king and in the age of social media it becomes even more and more important. Often we are so busy creating projects and media that we do not optimize them for the web via blogging, press releases, articles, pictures, etc. In many ways that's our continuing goal as a media company. To adequately optimize our media. 

For example the business that goes to the trouble of spending $5000 on a trade show booth but spends no money telling people outside and inside the trade show that they will be at the trade show via press releases, video, pictures, blogging and social media. Just like spending the additional money to staff the booth so should the company optimize it's investment buy budgeting for MEDIA & PR.

A VIRAL HIT + BODY OF WORK = OVERNIGHT SUCCESS (That took 10+ years to build.)

Everytime someone finds something that we or our cliets have done, we want them to see and easily find something else that we have done. This creates multiple impressions, branding, credibility, an increase in database and ideally an increase in revenue.

For example if you have only one video on YOUTUBE and someone sees that video and even loves it. What's the next video that come up on youtube? A: NOT YOURS. Epsecially if that is your only video.

 Verily I say unto thee, the more media the merrier...

"In the age of social media, you can't ignore PR because by definition social media is PR. Take control of it and master it, your doing it anyway, just be mindful of it and improve."

This week alone we are producing 11 hours of national & regional radio, 6-10 hours of broadcast television. Additional Videos for the web.

BUYER BEWARE: There are firms out there taking advantage of people and businesses that NEED SOCIAL MEDIA and then charging hundreds of dollars or more a month. However, if you don't have anything to promote via social media (i.e. blogging) then there is really nothing to build your social media around.

SHAMELESS CTA: We would love to help with creating something to blog about. Give us a call at 619-573-9456 or email us via the contact page, http://KamatoyMediaGroup.com

On the first part of the show David features Blogs.com, a top ten blog site run by Six Apart, "A great resource for successful blogs." WrongButFunny.com is highlighted as blogger Brad French's Peep Photography was chosen for the Top Ten in the Chicago Tribune's annual "Peeps Diorama Contest." Twitter sites to explore include splitweet.com, tweetdeck, and mashable. David also talks about comically being denied access to a twitter group promoting blogs and a somewhat annoying example of email marketing. Ricky Martin's unsurprising revelation of his personal preferences also pops up in this section of the show.

The second part of the show is a promotional interview between TV Personality Terry Burhans and Mick Moore, The Internet Entrepreneur.

Blog Updates Are Upon Us...WIDGETBOX in the HIZZY

We are in the process of cleaning up the state of the blogs and sites right now. Which is always something that you think would take less time. It's like editing a "God is in the Details" Moment.

I just added the Google Voice Widget, a new Viddler Widget and WIDGETBOX...

I just started playing with Widgetbox and am figuring out the best way to customize the widget. But this application is the what I've been looking for to get more dynamic content into a small space and more importantly "Above the fold".

What it has allowed us to do is to replace several of the feeds on the blog into one space. That and now this widget is distributable to other like minded blogs, websites and social sites.

We will be customizing several widgets over the next week or so. Here is the first one and I will be able to update it once its posted design wise as well. So here it is and if you would like to embed it PLEASE DO =).You can resize these widgets to your specifications.

Successful Social Media: Ten Twitter Tips Part I

Here are Ten Twitter Tips, social media and it's best and worst. Hopefully this will inspire a few ideas on how to build and monetize your database using twitter. This post will be discussed on the David Kamatoy Radio Show.

Ten Twitter Tips, Successful and Unsuccessful Examples with David Kamatoy and Morgan Westerman. Morgan Westerman created one of the most successful viral videos of the internet and has recently focused his energy on social media. In just a few short months he has gathered about 25,000 followers on twitter. He is currently working with entrepreneurs on best practices in sales conversion. He can be followed @morganwesterman.

TEN TWITTER TIPS Part I

1. 

Dell Computers $2 million and counting: Dell was the first company to come out with a press release that actually stated that they made a profit via twitter. http://twitter.com/DellOutlet started tweeting for the U.S. Dell Outlet in June 2007 based on a suggestion from someone attending the   SXSW Interactive.

They rewarded dell followers by promoting refurbished gear specifically and have noted sales to prove it.

THE LESSON: They created a specific type of reward and message that was different from their other marketing. In tandem with the reality that most twitter followers will be a bit tech savvy purchasing online this was a good match.

The result would have been different if they didn't do the discounted and refurbished sales.

2. Steve Agee, The Sarah Silverman Project: Steve Agee comedian started off his twitter following by pulling off a stunt on Ustream.tv about reading all first 5,000 names live on air when he hit 5,000. He is currently at  863,420.

Really good example of someone in the public spotlight using that publicity to gather a following in a new genre. Dane Cook did it on myspace and now Steve Agee is doing it on twitter.

ENTERTAINER TIP: Remember that when your on a hit show or in the limelight. Use it to build your database. Anyone in this side of the business knows that you never know when your going to get your show canceled. In radio they often sell the station out from under you with very little rumbling. If they told you the advertisers would go away.

OWN YOUR OWN DATABASE AND GET THEM TO AM EMAIL LIST

3. Burger Lounge: http://twitter.com/burger_lounge Our friends at burger lounge did a great promotion that got some solid coverage. They gave away a burger to their twitter followers for an evening.Twitter fans, get a FREE burger in Little Italy today!

The Lesson: REWARD your followers at some point with a free gift, special discount or content.

Unsuccessful Social Media:3 Examples

4. Straight to Sales: Straight to SPAM! http://twitter.com/Wealth_Formula No Humanity This is perfect example of what does not work and will most likely be deleted as spam. Straight to a landing page with only one message. REALLY!!!

5. Good Porn Bad Porn: http://twitter.com/A_Dempsey While this may go straight to a porn link the good thing is the quotes and a varying message. Sneaky Porn Spam generally bad. 

6. Don't Get Bitchy: It's a Public Forum... Personal Conversation Gone Wrong: http://valleywag.gawker.com/5152016/canuck-rag-regrets-tech-reporters-twitter-tirade Wow! read this exchange just awful. Thanks Joe Long.

The Lessons: 1. Use a landing page as seen below. 2. Quotes can be quite useful if used correctly. Choosing quotes that are related to your subject matter and then either blogging about them or just reference them back to you is a good idea in creating an ideal emotion. 3. It's public people remember that journalists are now quoting "tweets".

THREE TWITTER TIPS

7. Customize your twitter page. I use Google's picassa to create a collage using pictures and logos. You have to play with the output settings to get it right but it's a great free application.

8. Use Social Media Landing Pages ala Darren Rouse and facebook. 

http://www.problogger.net/about-darren-rowse-problogger/

http://yotamak.blogs.com/davidkamatoy/about-david-at-davidkamatoycom.html

9. Content, Content, Content...

If you truly want to convert to sales or interactivity then you have to earn the respect of your followers through credibility. Therefore push content...

Blog postings- Like this one.

Press Releases- 

Email Marketing: Jugglemail emails create unique URL's that can be easily posted onto twitter. We do it all the time with our press release emails. 

Videos

Facebook

Other peoples content: rt someone elses tweet usually garners attention and is often reciprocated. 

10. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery: Pay attention to who you and others pay attention to and then customize that style to your own.

BONUS Final Advice: Remember that ultimately you don't own your twitter,facebook or myspace profiles. They can be deleted at anytime for complaints, overuse, spam. To top it all off the parameters are constantly changing.

TIP: Covert to a real email and contact information as quickly as possible for real contacts.

"Hey that's me wait that's not me." Twitter to verify accounts to eliminate celebrity impostors

As the popularity of twitter grows so does the reality of the celebrity impostors. I find this only amusing because I saw this happening with website. I am amazed at how many celebrities don't own there own name as a url. It's like the whole publicity, agent circle was completely asleep when they built the internet.

 Twitter to verify accounts to eliminate celebrity impostors- by Verne Kopytoff

GRAB YOUR BRAND ON TWITTER WHILE YOU STILL CAN.

I mean come on $10 bucks to secure your name as a URL. Hello! $5,000 a month for my publicist back in the day so that they could ignore the web.

Case in point: I remember asking my agent if she wanted me to build her a website and she basically said, "No" because she didnt see a benefit. Comically a few years later she actually said to me, "Hey have you seen the website, I'm so excited." Really you can't make this stuff up.

Finally I am reminded of my buddy Dat Phan because part of his impetus to start building his myspace profile was that someone was pretending to be him on myspace. This guy was thanking people for congratulating him on winning last comic standing.

FINAL TIPS: Get the url with your name even if it's the .name. especially if you are branding yourself. Get the twitter.com/yourname if you can as well again branding yourself before someone else grabs it. If you have common name then try adding the activity or category that people will most likely search for you under. Also you always add the word BLOG behind your name and start a simple blog site.
