How do you get started with social media and promoting your business?  What are the first steps?

In this video Alan Donegan co-founder of the Pop-up Business School talks about getting started using social media and specifically Twitter to promote your new business.  He gives you his three top tips to getting going:

1. who do you want to talk to?  Think about who might be your audience and what words they would be using to search for what you are doing online
2. Start conversation with people talking about your area by using twitter search to find people to talk to
3. Make sure you have a link back to your website on your bio and occasionally at the end of your tweets so people can find your website and check it out if they want to

Most important thing is to get going, start an account and use it every day for five minutes!
