Panelist at OMMA Social on Twitter business model
UPDATE: Here's Cathy Taylor's post at her Social Media Insider blog at Mediapost announcing the winners. Four of us made the cut and there are some interesting business models presented. I still think mine is the hands down winner tho. Heh.
Great news, for me at least. I've been chosen to be a panelist at OMMA Social on the topic of creating a Twitter business model.
I know, I know. You're asking how that came about. I mean, Chris Brogan I ain't. The fact is , a columnist for Mediapost and the person overseeing this event, held a contest asking those interested in doing so to submit an idea for a business model for Twitter. The prize, participation as a panelist.
Here was my entry...
Twitter should offer a premium version for biz use, similar to Yammer. Create private networks. Charge based on # of users. Def. winner!
{Note: It had to be 140 characters or less. It was for Twitter afterall.)
To be honest, I never thought I had a chance, but very happy to be chosen. It's an awesome opportunity and I'm grateful to Cathy and Mediapost for extending the offer.
