I came across Kyle Lacy’s Twitter Marketing for Dummies whilst on an assignment protecting clients throughout India. I had until then dismissed twitter as anything more than another fad that people with too much time on their hands would take notice of. However as I was contemplating purchasing the book my clients were sitting in the Airport lounge letting their thousands of followers know how their trip was so far. Kyle’s writing style is relaxed and on the money making the book not only easy to read but enjoyable and extremely informative. He used his ability to link traditional marketing techniques to effective social media marketing using twitter as the driving force. This book is full of tools to utilize and maximize your Twitter experience and communicate your message to potential customers worldwide.

I would consider myself knowledgeable on the subject of Twitter and new media in general, but this book offered me a really nice big picture view of how I might better use it. If you’re just starting out in the world of Twitter and marketing in general, this is going to get you started in a really thorough way. Of course, some basic Twitter knowledge will be useful as a starting point. And if you’re a Twitter pro, you’ll appreciate the insight of another power user.
Twitter Marketing for Dummies isn’t just a how-to, in many ways it’s also a why-to as well. Lacy really gets at the various reasons businesses might want to get started with some kind of Twitter marketing and electronic marketing in general. The book definitely comes at the topic from a business standpoint, but I think its principles will be useful to anyone who is looking to invest in Twitter as a marketing medium.
Perhaps the most useful element of the book is the substantial collection of online tools that Lacy has amassed. You will learn of Twitter-based sites that you’ve never heard of before. The “Top Tens” section of the book is great, and the appendix “Great Twitter Marketing Ideas in 140 Characters or less” is, of course, apropos.
Whether you’re a beginner looking for a solid introduction to harnessing the power of Twitter or a seasoned veteran searching for new ideas, this book will offer something useful for you.

Don’t be fooled by the title, this book is for every level of Twitter user, from someone who doesn’t even know what Twitter is, to someone who has maybe used Twitter for years. Kyle will take you from the very basics of twitter, to the more advanced methods of how to market on this highly popular social media tool.
The greatest facet of this book is that Kyle writes not only from his own experience as a business owner who uses Twitter as a marketing tool, but he has taken the time to gather the experiences of others from a wide variety of situations so that his book wouldn’t too one-sided and could apply to anyone who is interested in using Twitter as a marketing tool.
You will get as much as out of this book as you want to, all the information you need to know is in the text. If you are at all interested in finding out how Twitter can help you, then this should be your first source for information. Thank you Kyle, for showing me that social media is changing the way we do business and build relationships, and that it is not an impossible, but rather enjoyable task to keep up with this new media.
