What is a Tweet? Many term tweets as talking on the web in short blasts to a wide variety of tweeters.
So. what is different about Reverse Talk? Reverse Talk tweets are sent to a specific community, specifically senior professionals who are interested in connecting with like mindedness professionals and service providers, and not to a wide spectrum audience. like twitter. The advantage is simple; you are able to communicate, sound off, ask questions, get resources, and make friends all across the country.
The question is, do I want to friend my competitor down the street? The answer is yes and no. You see, your neighbor down the street is trying to make a living in this business just like you. Getting to know your neighbor puts you in a position to know both some of the good and not so good things. That old saying, “keep your friends close and your enemies closer,” is very wise advice.
ABOUT ME:
I noticed that many RT members sign up, but never go back to complete their profiles. This is your option and is not a requirement, however, if I am going to ‘friend you’ on RT, then I want to know something about you, ie. where you do business, your interests in the reverse mortgage business, etc. So, if you haven’t completed your profile, then take about 2 minutes to do it.
Here is where you go to complete the “About Me”:
1. Login to your member account
2. Click on “Settings” on the top tab
3. Click on “About Me” under the My Account menu
4. Next just fill in the About Me information (you can add as little or no info here)
5. Next on the blue tab “save changes”
6. You can go back and change your “About Me” at any time
Tweet: Did you know every time you do a public post in RT, it can get posted to your twitter account?
Make sure your Twitter account is updated in your Settings.: Did you know google threads through your tweets and it can increase your SEO?
While you at it why not “invite friends”? Do you have a colleague or other professional who would like to be part of our community. If so, simply go to your “invite friends” tab and send them an email. We have it all done for you.
