Organize a successful Tweetup

March 7th, 2009

Thinking of throwing a Tweetup? Before you start asking your friends to start retweeting an impromptu invite, remember some work goes into each event. I’ve found this is especially true with every Tweetup I’ve helped organize with the Tribune. If you want to establish real, valuable relationships with your Twitter friends, you have to show them that you care about the details.

That’s why I love the post: How To: Organize a Successful Tweetup. Before even thinking about inviting every person in your Twitter network out, check over these 17 suggestions. I can’t stress this enough as I’ve seen too many people try to host Tweetups without communicating basic information like addresses and start and end times.

So give it a look, grab some name tags and have a great time.

Welcome!

Hi, thanks for stopping by.

The past year has brought about many changes -- one, I'm no longer at the Chicago Tribune. After a great two years there, I've moved on to Creative Director at Consumer Media Network. I'm also no longer "acmaurer" technically, since I married my best friend in June '11. I'm now Amanda Woodhead, but between you, me and the Internet, I'll always be acmaurer. So thanks again for stopping by, and here's to some great conversations.

Want to find me on the Web? I'm acmaurer on most social news and networking sites.
PS, I doubt I have to say this, but this is my personal blog and doesn't reflect the opinion of my employer.
