Tweetdock - Targeted Twitter Marketing

Tweet

One problem I've found is that it doesn't check properly if it's sending a tweet to somebody it's already sent one to.

Having said that, it could be that it stops that at a campaign level, but there are times when you want to run a series of related campaigns. In that case, you want any one person to only ever receive a tweet if they've never had one from any of your campaigns.

E.g. if you were targeting widgets and had a campaign on blue widgets, green widgets and red widgets, then if it sent a tweet to somebody that mentioned blue widgets you may not want them to receive another about green or red widgets in the future.

Yep, im totally with you on that one. At the moment it is campaign specific. Ill attempt to get that sorted asap!

Thanks - that'd be great! I can see why you'd have done it at a campaign level, but having used it a bit I did find it could be a problem if you have related campaigns.

Having said that, people may have totally separate campaigns with different Twitter IDs and so not want it to do it across campaigns.

So what you would probably need is some way of grouping campaigns. Eg either by allowing the user to specify which are related, or just grouping campaigns with the same Twitter ID. The latter would probably be the simplest and does make sense I think.

I have spotted a slight flaw with the system. It worsk really well. However a funny thing happened earlier...

I am running a campaign about weight loss and am therefore using keywords to that effect. Without knowing it, I have recently sent a tweet to an unsuspecting woman. She was writing about how she had returned to her car to find a parking ticket and a brochure about weight loss.

She was not impressed by my message about how to buy cheap weight loss pills!!!

I am still receiving abusive mesages! lol

Any chance of the system not sending messages to women in bad moods?

haha, sorry to hear that!

feel free to attempt to find a coder that will implement a "no bad mood" messaging script and I'll pay for them ;-)

Used correctly I think this could be a fantastic marketing tool.
I agree that there needs to be an option to only send Tweets to people who don't already follow you though.

I'm just signing up now to have a play.

One small comment - why have a user name when an email address will do? I never remember my user names and always prefer to sign in with my email address. As it happens I just used my email address in the user name field but I don't see the point in having one.

Will let you know how I get on.

Keep up the good work ;-)
