Twitter Power: How to Dominate Your Market One Tweet at a Time Review
“Arguably, one of the best tomes…Twitter Power is jam-packed with clever ways to start and dominate a marketplace.” (Brandopia.typepad.com, March 23rd 2009)
Review
“For months I saw and heard the buzz about Twitter, but it wasn’t until Joel told me details about it that I fully understood its marketing implications. Now I can clearly see how this free site can help me further build relationships with my customers, and I am going to be ‘tweeting’ frequently! In fact, I have already started, thanks to Joel. So thanks for writing this book, Joel. It’s going to help a lot of people grow their business!”
Stephen Pierce (www.MakeRealMoneyOnTheInternet.com)
“In the short amount of time I have had with Joel Comm, I can clearly see that this is a man who understands how to build profitable Internet businesses. Twitter Power is sure to set a new standard for those seeking to broaden their entrepreneurial vision to include the latest Internet technologies. I recommend you read it and begin applying it to your business right away!”
Bill Bartmann, Billionaire Business Coach (www.billioanireu.com)
“I was lucky. Joel Comm sat down with me and explained what Twitter is, how it works, and how I could and should be using it for my business. Joel knows more about using Twitter than any other human, and the proof is in his own massive success with “tweeting.” You’re even luckier; in this book, Joel will teach YOU everything you need to know about Twitter—and you don’t even need to buy him lunch.”
Dan O’Day, radio advertising guru (www.twitter/dan_oday)
“I’m amazed how many people are not yet using Twitter to connect with customers and associates. Once again, Joel Comm leads the way into the future by showing people how they can have increased success by taking some very simple actions. This book has inspired me to take my social media presence to the next level!”
Christopher Howard, wealth and personal achievement expert
“Social media has given online business the fuel to ride the next wave of the Internet for many years to come. If you want to be on the cutting edge of strategies that are being implemented by the most successful businesses, Twitter Power is a must-read. Joel has done a great job of demonstrating how a minor investment of time and energy can result in long-term payoffs. No wonder they call him the Social Media Expert!”
Kristopher Jones, CEO of Pepperjam and author of Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for Effective Internet Marketing
“Joel Comm’s understanding of social media and its applications for entrepreneurs and the growth of their businesses is remarkable. Beyond his knowledge, it is his ability to communicate it effectively that makes him stand apart, while his humor in delivery keeps you coming back for more. “
Jen Groover, a “One Woman Brand” and founder of Butler Bag LLC
“I’ve been a big fan of Joel’s ability and track record to keep up and explain the importance of new web-based communication tools and trends. I consider him to be at the front edge of the Internet and a sage guide to help you grasp and understand changes in the fast-paced online world.”
Tony Rubleski, Amazon #1 bestselling author (www.MindCaptureBook.com)
“Thanks, Joel, for this intriguing look at Twitter. You’ve proven that Twitter Power isn’t just about making new connections to generate sales. It’s about brand-building, focus groups, the exchange of ideas and the emotion of debate. All conducted in real time via computer, cell phone, PDAs, and perhaps even TV by the time you read this. When you add in the incredibly viral nature of Twitter, the possibilities are virtually endless.”
Dan Nickerson (www.YouMetDan.com)
“I’ve been following Joel on Twitter for a while now and I’ll be frank—he annoys me . But in a good way. He always manages to grab my attention in Twitter, despite the limited words availablle within the
microblogging platform. This clearly demonstrates that Joel understands how this new and powerful social media tool should be used. If you want to unleash the power of Twitter for your business, Joel is someone you should pay attention to.”
Yaro Starak (www.entrepreneurs-journey.com)
“I’m a twittering fool. Twitter is one of the most addicting things on the net. Besides the fact you get to update everyone and talk to people you’d rarely talk to, it’s a great tool for building an online buzz. Make sure you follow Joel Comm on this subject, because he’s on the cutting edge of this.”
Matt Bacak, Internet multi-millionaire, Atlanta, GA

Very disappointed in Twitter Power
I found the book too basic in some ways, very redundant, and not particularly helpful. An example- lots of stuff on how to gain new followers (none of it particularly original)…
I’ve just gotten into WOM marketing and so I assumed that my knowledge on the subject is limited. After reading this book, however, I came to think that I could be a marketing guru as well. The ideas described in this book could be summarized on three pages and still those pages would not be worth reading! Rules such as: make your message interesting or make it short or make it easy to remember are obvious for all those who are capable to think logically. Others (e.g. Chinese banquet example) are simply ridiculous!
I expected to learn a lot from this book. I learned nothing new. Plus, the book appear to contradict all the rules he lists: it could definitely be shorter and more interesting!

This is the third Twitter book I have read and this one was the best by far. In my reading and marking pages, I found at least 50 specific marketing strategies I can use right now. Being an author of 20 books myself, I am a tough critic of these kinds of books. I would give this one my highest recommendation for anyone wanting to learn about Twitter or online marketing in general.

Modern update to an old classic
Gives a good perspective on what is word of mouth and the challenge to measure it financially (what is the cost if it is free?).
This comment was originally posted on http://imarketingwatch.com/)”>iMarketingWatch.com
This is an excellent book that should appeal to those without a large advertising budget yet desire to improve awareness of their company or themselves. I was particularly intrigued by the concept that word of mouth marketing is measurable yet cannot be bought. Another takeaway: the honesty of the message fuels the growth of it and improves a company’s potential word of mouth success.
I’d highly recommend this book especially to small businesses in need of getting discovered by the desired audience.

Good Book on getting started with Twitter
If you are looking to get tweeting this is the book. Covers the basics in the first few chapters and gets you started.
I was disappointed with Twitter Power, especially after reading the many reviews that claimed this book would reveal many techniques for both beginners and pros alike. For anyone that has been using Twitter for more than a couple weeks, this book is really 101. It seems to be geared towards people that have never heard of Twitter or are just getting started. If that’s the case, this book will help you get your feet wet, but it doesn’t shed light on anything you can’t pick up on your own simply by using Twitter for a few days.
Twitter is real time with instant response in most cases, and you’ll find out what works for you and what doesn’t almost immediately. You can also pay attention to the power players and note their approach. The book just points you to the top users on Twitter anyways. Save your money and do a little homework.
I’ve given an extra star because 10% of author proceeds go towards sustainable long term water solutions in developing areas of the globe.

Essential tools and case studies
I received an advance proof to review and participate in a WOM experiment, and I am very excited. This revision of an already amazing book comes at the perfect time.

What my mom told me about Twitter!
Well to tell you the truth – my mom did not have anything to tell me about Twitter.
But what she could not tell me, was totally compensated by Joel Comm in his new…
I’ve been following Joel on Twitter for over a year as of writing this. Over that time I’ve seen his Twitter following grow by thousands of followers! Watching this amazing growth and following Joel’s tweets I’ve realized he definitely knows Twitter inside and out. I’m glad he’s finally released all his knowledge and tips into book format.
Just in the the first few chapters Twitter Power covers the basics and potential mistakes I see SO MANY people making with Twitter. It then goes on to cover many other helpful aspects such as how to use Twitter to build your brand, getting help, building a team, applications you can use with Twitter, and more.
I highly recommend reading Twitter power for anyone that uses Twitter and wants to get the most out of it.

For a beginner, great. For someone familiar with social media, not so much.
Thanks to the likes of Oprah and all the celebs who are now on Twitter, social media novices are coming to the site in droves. Even my own mother set up an account.

Another winner from Joel Comm
This is the 4th book I’ve read by Joel Comm (including one ebook). I have subscribed to Joel’s blog, his TopOne Report and followed him for quite a while.
I was very satisfied with the nuts and bolts details in this book.The action steps led to measurable results for me and I could see them just as described in the promo for the book. It was everything I expected and had bonus resiurces and historical background as well. This book is a must for any web professional or if you just want to learn about social networking.

Straight forward and actionable – what more could you ask for?
So important for leaders to have good “actionable” tools to point people towards. This is exactly that.

Excellent, useful, hands-on social media book (but not the best for nonprofit marketing professionals)
Out of all the books on Social Media Marketing, I purchased this one because its title seemed the most practical. I was not disappointed.

Highly Recommended
This book does a great job at explaining Social Media and how it differs from traditional advertising. It’s a must-have for anyone who is new at this.

I had been on the waiting list of Amazon.com for over 3 months waiting for this book to be released and it is exactly what I hoped for. I’m actually only 108 pages through it now as I “peeked” at all the self help guides that the author has in the appendix. I want to jump right in and get it going but Dave’s advice to take your time and learn the hows and whys is so important.
I was not looking for a social commentary on social media but wanted to know the ins and out, nuts and bolts, on how to implement a successful marketable strategy and this book does it.
Only this morning I actually went to the blog and sent an email to the author, Dave, and was surprised that within a few minutes he had responded . Talk about getting more than a book!!
What is so engaging is the author is energetic, evangelistic in his zeal to help others, and willing to share to make this journey easier for others to follow. It’s a step by step guide for an emerging dynamic field which is affecting us now and will do so far into the future.
I’m glad this book exists and is so affordable and even happier the author is willing and able to help us along.
