CONTENT STRATEGY

Tone: “news-y”

Frequency: depends on how you use it; match your purpose with the frequency; more acceptable to be “on” or “off”; can lay ground rules for what people can expect

Responsiveness: monitor for mentions of your club and relevant news articles; “favorite” and “rewteet” to engage

Tips:

• The more active you are, the more followers you’ll have

• What do people follow you for?

• Include short links

• Include photos

• Be responsive

• Recycle tweets
