Great question Doug.  Here are a couple of suggestions.  If
you are following interesting people for a while (like the two I mentioned in
the post) you will find your own mind searching for how to find prospective
business.  I know you have a mind that loves to probe.  Meanwhile:

1.       Go right here and read Michael Stelzner’s white paper," How to Use Twitter to grow Your Business" for starters.

2.       Do a Google Search on "Using Twitter to grow Your Business" – Read Tons

3.       Discover all the tools that have evolved with Twitter’s open API.  Such
as:

4.       Think of a key phrase or buzzword that would only be used within a circle
of the groups of people you want to find and follow for a while.  e.g. if you
were looking for nail related people you might use http://www.search.twitter.com for the keyword "nail tech" (don’t forget the double
quotes).

The list goes on and on.

Here’s a final suggestion – a piece of research from a very
smart guy on the ‘bleeding edge’ of New Media, Brian Solis.  http://www.briansolis.com/2009/01/is-twitter-viable-conversation-platform.html

Enjoy.  You’ll either love me or hate me when you get going

So I did, it was easy, I watched the video, Twitter looks great. But I am wondering how I can use it for business? For example, how could I use it to find new clients? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Doug Hi Alex,
I took you’re advice and joined Twitter, partly because of Sharon’s warning that someone else could “register” my name before me and I might lose it. So I did, it was easy, I watched the video, Twitter looks great.
But I am wondering how I can use it for business? For example, how could I use it to find new clients? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
