Tips for picking a username
• Your username or “handle” is the name your followers use when sending @replies, mentions, and direct messages.– @aliciakanderson– @suzspear– @gregt12– @Sage_Summit
• It will also form the URL of your Twitter profile page.
• Fewer than 15 characters in length.

• MOST IMPORTANT: follow @Sage_Summit and @blythecollc!
• After signing up, follow a handful of accounts to create a customized stream of information on your homepage. – Following means you'll get that user's Tweets on your Twitter
homepage– You can unfollow anyone later on.
• Read the Twitter 101 article here, which offers details into how to begin getting the most out of Twitter.
• Take the Twitter Tour to find out where things are on the website.

140 Characters
• It’s best to use only 120 so people can retweet your message easily
• Here’s a great example of a 120 character tweet: – I'm headed to the Sage City Accounting Village at #SageSummit!
Who's joining me? Can't wait to meet with my peers!

Hashtags (#)
• Used to organize posts & index content– Events - #SageSummit, #wimbledon– Topics - #blyDea, #nascar, #leadership, #allthesocialladies
• Here’s an example: – #SageSummit is about to kick-off, I’m excited to share some best
practices with my peers!
