Top 20 Women For Entrepreneurs To Follow On Twitter

Guest Post by Natalie Sisson (from Forbes.com)

I’m a big believer in using Social Media as an integrated part of your business marketing approach. I also love coaching people in how to use it effectively for their unique business situation.

Twitter has blown my mind with the ability it has given me to connect with a diverse range of terrific people from all around the world.

I’ve been able to reach people I may never have even discovered or had the chance to contact. In return people have found me completely by random and become fans of my blog thanks to links I’ve shared or retweets I’ve received from others in my community.

For all those people who don’t understand Twitter or badmouth it – you’re missing out! If you want to know my key tips for using it for business and beyond then get your free copy of my eBook `The Entrepreneur’s Social Media Workout.’
