Example: How To Turn 1 Ebook Into 80+ Tweets
1 Ebook (i.e. “How to Leverage Twitter for Business”) turns into
20 Blog Posts (i.e. “The 8 Metrics You Should Be Tracking on Twitter?”) turn into
60+ Twitter Posts (i.e. “#QOTD “What get’s measured get’s managed.” Peter Drucker Are you measuring the right metrics on Twitter? [link])
