Twitter Marketing: 15% one-day sales hike for pizza joint
Blogger Lisa Young Twittered about a recent Advertising Age article that gives a pretty compelling example of Twitter Marketing provided solid ROI.
“In a test run April 23, an exclusive-to-Twitter promotion brought in 15% of the day’s business.”
$0 for a Twitter account + Time to Manage (or outsource management) = 15% one-day growth
This is a hard ROI stat for print, radio and tv to combat. Of course, a lot depends on the message, culling a following and time to effectively manage a company’s tweeting. I know some businesses are still fighting the need for social media integration into their marketing plans; but it is time to join in or become obsolete.
