I like the Timeline and am using both..as you said, the Subscriber option works wonders instead of the redirecting people/fans you don't actually know to the fan page. #cheers! Aprille Great job!

I think the subscriber button is really the right tool for key influencers, journalists etc. to share a glimpse of their personality but also keep their most important events as private as they want. I thought about the subscribe button for myself for quite a while: I have close to 500 friends and I do have a business page where I share news and information about Social Media but also some personal (but work-related) things. For me and many, there's no need to add the subscription button right now- I have to work a bit longer to become Cindy Morrison. But for people who reached their friend limit already, it's a fantastic third way! Great blog post, Cindy!

If you don't relate as I just mentioned, initial return on investment will be poor- especially if you are starting out with 100 or less followers. People often make the assumption that you are not interesting based on your Twitter following number. It gets worse now because now you need a Klout score to make headway into some social media circles. Two plus years ago, I went from 0 to 1000 followers in three months. Recently, I've seen people struggle to honestly engage 500 followers in twelve months. What if you just bought your first 1000 followers and took it from there? 1000 followers is respectable. It's not wow but it is a nice place to start from. It's a tough call for me in terms of making a professional recommendation. I don't want to contribute to the dwindling value of Twitter. But it is a catch 22. What about buying 10,000 followers? I've seen it done. I've seen it done for 25k, 50k, and 100k followers in less than a month. But some of these high growth accounts are government operations experimenting with influence and misinformation. If your government is doing it, does that make it ok? Your blog post inspires interesting questions!

My fav was that customers determine the direction of your company (we just have to listen!). LOVE your story about the airline 15 years ago vs a tweet earlier this year. I swear it's one way I determine if a company is "listening" and paying attention to it's customers. If I tweet something and get a response... I'm constantly impressed by some of the smaller companies' attention to service vs. the big ones. I agree Cynthia, Peter’s message really resonated!
