Targeted Twitter Marketing!
We send tweets on your behalf to people that match your specific search criteria to help promote and market you and your brand... so you don't have to!
To do this, you simply need to enter in the words you want to search for on twitter, and up to 5 different responses you want to send them then let us do the rest.
Every hour we'll find new matches for you, and send your pre-defined replies to the latest returned search results. we'll send the reply for you as soon as a match is found, it's really that easy!
With our manual campaigns you can refine your search to get relevant matches every time.
The system will spread out your auto replies or confirmed matches so as not to overwhelm your followers, and rotate through your different responses so it doesn't appear repetitive when people view your account.
We can even automatically follow the found users on twitter for you to give a more friendly approach.
OK... heres the process in a quick step by step...
1. sign up @ Tweetdock - Targeted Twitter Marketing
2. verify your email address to activate your account
3. goto the Twitter Accounts Tab to associate your twitter account with Tweetdock (dont worry all passwords are encrypted)
4. Now you are ready to start a campaign, head over to the campaigns tab and click "Add a new campaign"
5. Campaign name is simply what you would like to call the campaign.
6. Twitter account - you can associate as many twitter accounts as you like to Tweetdock, so this is where you choose which account is the correct one for this campaign.
7. Campaign Reply Messages - this is where some people are getting stuck... basically whatever you type here will be the @ reply that will be sent to the users that meet your criteria. So for example if you are promoting a biscuits website, you may want to say something along the lines of "I see you mentioned biscuits, take a gander at our website www.ilovebiscuits.com" (pretty bad example but you get the drift lol). Now, you can add as many replies as you like per campaign, and honestly, the more the better. Tweetdock sends messages hourly (1-5 messages, you define how many you'd like to be sent). If you are sending the same message 5 times an hour it wont look very good on your twitter profile page, so I'd suggest putting maybe 7-10 messages for Tweetdock to choose from at random.
8. Number of Messages per hour - self explanatory
9. Message Sending - OK if you opt to send messages automatically, the messages will send every hour, without you having to do anything. If you set it to manual, the messages wont be sent until you have decided which ones you'd like to be sent
10. Automatically Follow - If "Yes" is selected, Tweetdock will make your Twitter account automatically follow everyone that you send a message to (or if you are using manual mode, everyone who meets the criteria!)
11. Your Criteria - Fill out your criteria for the search. so for biscuits, simply put the word biscuits in the "All of these words" field. It will then send messages to anyone who uses the word biscuits.
12. Geo-Targeting - To send worldwide you simply leave this bit blank. We are working on how to send just to the UK. At the moment twitter only allows you to search for tweets from people within a certain distance from a location. So you could put within 200 miles of Manchester for example. However you cannot simply put "UK". We will work on this and get back to you
13. Submit the campaign. Once you have submitted, the campaign is not live (yet). Just click on the red button under "Status" and this will activate your campaign.
Once your campaign has been activated, sit back and watch the magic happen
Messages are sent once an hour, so wait and hour then check your twitter account and you will see you have sent some @ replies
You've lost me! Give me an example...
OK so let's say you just opened a new Sandwich Shop in Aberdeen and wanted to let people know about it. You could setup TweetDock (via the Campaign Tab) to search for things like:
| All of these words: | |
| This exact phrase: | |
| Any of these words: | |
| None of these words: | |
| Near this place: | |
| Within this distance: | Miles Kilometers |
(of course you could simply search world wide if you are marketing globally).
We would then hourly find twitter posts that mentioned coffee by users that are actually located within 2 miles of Aberdeen such as
'@effingcards What i would give for a plate of sandwiches right now' or
'@hairycornflakes There's only one thing better than sex... Sandwiches :)'
Depending on how you set your search up, the system will then either send the response automatically right then, or it will add it to your matches list for you to check over and confirm.
If in a manual campaign you find something like '@cheesenpickle I hate Sandwiches!!!' you can simply remove this from your matches list and they will not receive your message!
So, what's coming next?
We are still in closed beta at the moment, we will be opening for public testing soon. We are constantly improving TweetDock on a daily basis and welcome all feedback.
The best way to keep up with us is by following us on twitter
Currently un funded and fully developed privately, in Aberdeen UK, TweetDock is just another platform we have built for ourselves!! The reason this got built before others is because we needed a system that would do some really efficient Twitter Marketing for our own businesses! And of course now it could help improve endless peoples twitter experience. OK so we are not the only twitter marketing platform out there but we like to think we can offer a very trustworthy and efficient campaign manager for you, that offers very little limitations.
