[...] Numerous social media experts have already written countless blog posts and print articles dispensing advice, good and bad, about Twitter. Conscientious Twitter citizen Amy Derby, who writes about blogging for lawyers at Law Firm Blogger, recently rounded up the best with a trio of posts with tips and how-to’s on Twitter. While ostensibly for lawyers, the advice in these posts apply equally to ADR professionals. I particularly recommend “Lawyer Twitter Practices: 29 Do’s and Don’ts” and “Figuring out Twitter“. [...]

I meandered my way over to this discussion from a similar thread on Slaw.ca and still see very few people taking the time to customize their twitter background into a unique page that is an extension of their brand. Although I only hit the twitter bandwagon a month ago, my view was that if I was going to commit to using twitter as a communications tool, it was worth making a small investment in having that tool reflect and grow my brand.

I spoke with the company that handles my website design and worked with them to create a twitter page that had its origins firmly rooted in the existing ’style’ of my firm’s website but that had a slightly more ‘casual’ or ‘personal’ feel to it which I felt was more appropriate for my twitter audience.

See the results for yourself by comparing my firm website at http://www.CrimLawCanada.com with my twitter page at http://www.twitter.com/prutschi.

While I can’t say with certainty how much of an effect this has had, my twitter followers began to grow considerably since I made the change to the new background only a week ago. The experiment continues.
