You tweeted back.

MaiAbaza @CommunicateME Be conversational in ur approach. One-way “announcements” get u nowhere.
 
Xische @CommunicateME Social Media Networks = Story telling & brand engagement rather than awareness.
 
arun4 @CommunicateME For brands, use social networks as a part of a marketing strategy. Not as a me-too tactic.
 
PKGulati @CommunicateME Use SM as interactive, inclusive part of the larger strategy to bring brand closer to people who matter.
 
dorksterdave @CommunicateME Simple tips on social networking: Be genuine and consistent in your engagements whether online or offline.
 
DubaiWriter @CommunicateME Think of the people first and the technology second.
 
DrBaher @CommunicateME forget about control, be everywhere, be authentic, personal, interesting and really listen to your community/customers.
 
abhamalpani @CommunicateME Top SM tip: Be relevant to your audience when they don't need you.
 
Flicksterdubai @CommunicateME Its about sharing interesting stuff not just focusing on your own activity - no1 likes some1 who only talks about themselves!
 
MissGoogle @CommunicateME Use the platform to engage with the audience and start individual conversations instead of sticking to 1-way communication.
 
samarowais @CommunicateME Form relationships with your targeted market at an individual level. There's no 'marketing' through SM if you don't connect.
 
nagham @CommunicateME just be you. Oh, and don't just post stuff that links to your site...that gets old real fast...
 
Shahbaa @CommunicateME dont over tweet, some organizations (publications!!) tweet every min w single news story- that kind of defeats the purpose.
