Hi I'm very new to twitter - only complaint I have is not being able to see a conversation thread when two users tweet each other repeatedly - is there a way to see this?

Facebook timeline is useful as it brings back content that was posted months even years ago and means it doen't just get lost in the ether...

It should be a complete combination of all three that you mentioned - any business which focuses purely on profits does not have longevity - consumers are very canny and with so much competition in almost every sector space, the product or services that you offer must 'stand out' in some way either for their quality, unique selling point (USP) or value for money otherwise consumers will soon turn elsewhere!

You could start to think about possible trade sales to other businesses looking to expand/ remove local competition in the area that might be interested in buying your business - perhaps start to build up a list of companies that are in a similar space and when the right time comes approach them for a sale. Timing is key - you want to sell your business at the height of its value.

To return to the original question posted in the thread, it would be great if anyone could contribute tips as to how to increase twitter or facebook followings.

There is a different psychology related to Twitter and Facebook where users are in a more explorative 'relaxed' frame of mind and more likely to follow links to new websites etc. This makes it a good medium to promote services that people didn't even know they wanted or 'needed' before stumbling across it.
