How do you know unless you try?

I’m a restaurant expert, specifically, restaurant systems expert, so I don’t profess to be an expert on social media (all that online socializing taking place on sites such as MySpace, Facebook, FOHBOH, etc.).

However, the newest and “greatest” (according to some) is Twitter. And I really think there is some merrit to this for you – most specifically because it goes beyond the Web and can reach your customers on their cell phones. Wouldn’t it be great to send your dinner specials to your most loyal customers on a daily basis? You can do that now through email, but if you can get it to their phones, you could catch them during a key decision-making timeframe.

So, read this article and consider whether you have any opportunities for using Twitter to grow (or maintain) your business.
