Beth Williams Studio Lobster Bead

Beth Williams of Beth Williams Studio created this lobster bead after I read her tweet that she had just made a fish bead and I had suggested she make a lobster one.

The power of Twitter I tell ya!

So now I plan to head over to her studio and talk to her about the lobster bead.  Why?  Because I learned about it by casually following her on Twitter.   Funny how that works, huh?

Twitter for Artists

I have some time on my Hands or should I say hand? At the moment and I’ve been checking out twitter lately and I’ve changed my mind on it.

I didn’t like it at first. Couldn’t figure out what the big deal was about. But, it gets addictive. It gives you up to date info on what’s happening on what your interested in.

I follow “TWITS” on Cape Ann, Artists and News.

Here’s a list I found on Artists and photographers. Cape Ann Arts Map is listed here among  thousands of others from around the World.

Twitter Folk You Should Follow- Bean and Leaf Coffee Co

Yes I’m not going to stop banging the drum about how important it is to use social media for your business or organization.

Here is an example of a company who just started up their twitter thang and how they just plain get it already-.  The Bean and Leaf Coffee House is in Rockport and they tweeted this-

Scones, muffins, bagels baked fresh today – on sale for $1….now until 5pm!about 15 hours ago via HootSuite

Now I wouldn’t have known this otherwise.  It took the owner or employee responsible for their twitter feed all of 5 seconds to write out this little special deal but it got my attention and I’m sure a whole bunch of either folks attention.   Building a business and brand one customer at a time.
