Twitter Chats for Creativepreneurs
July 27, 2015
I love a good Twitter chat.
Twitter has by far been the most instrumental social platform in my blog and career success. This led me to not only participate in Twitter chats but also host my own.
So what’s all the fuss about?
To start, Twitter chats are a great way to connect with other professionals who share the same passions as you while establishing yourself as an industry expert.
These chats are usually started by a host (or group of co-hosts) and are carried out on a weekly basis, meeting at the same time and day of the week for consistency.
I’ve created this master list of Twitter chats I’ve participated in (and fallen in love with) to make things a little easier.
Because let’s face it: being creative is tough.
Building a community on Twitter is crucial to your success as a creativepreneur. Twitter chats are a great place to start meeting others like you so let me introduce you to some of my favorites.
