2008

Briefly describe this feed's objectives and how it has met those objectives (up to 100 words).

VerticalResponse maintains two active Twitter accounts that provide two distinctive functions. One, @VR4SmallBiz, provides up-to-the-minute business and marketing-related information and tips – both our own content and content from other authoritative sources – to our busy small business customers, so they don’t have to waste time searching. Our other Twitter feed, @SupportVR, is a customer service channel to give our customers another way to reach us directly for one-on-one support and help with our products.

Overall engagement on our Twitter feeds has increased steadily as more customers adopt the platform. Month over month, clicks grew an average of 17 percent, retweets grew 17 percent, mentions grew 8 percent, and followers grew 5 percent.
