Creates you a bio that attracts
Your brand’s Twitter bio is very important as it is the first thing a profile visitor will read about your company.

Using the right hashtags
As hashtags help you get more engagement, your Twitter virtual assistant ensures that you only use relevant and memorable hashtags in your tweets and campaigns that you’re running. Also, your Twitter virtual assistant sees to it that you don’t overuse hashtags for your content, not to look spammy, and to not drop the engagement rate.
Creating targeted lists
Your Twitter virtual assistant can create a list of your target people and categorize them into different groups which include your competitors for you to see their posts and what they are up to, your existing clients who you would like to engage with, and potential clients whom you want to build relationships with. By creating these lists, you will be able to keep track of their accounts without the need of following them.
Engage and build relationships
Engaging can help you build a strong bond between your company and your audiences. Your Twitter virtual assistant can help you make your followers and audience that they are being heard and important through replying to comments, liking, and retweeting your audience’s posts about your brand. Interacting with them is one of the best ways to foster brand loyalty.
