That bonus tip is pretty nice. Just trying to keep up with the pros.

Oh, before I forget. Remember, I told you something happened when I reached out to all these sales experts on twitter.

My twitter account got suspended!! Both follower and following counts went to zero. Surprisingly, when I saw this, I (for the most part) kept my cool. But also had a mini freak out inside at the same time.

The problem was, I sent 50 tweets out in a matter of 10 minutes. One tweet to 50 different sales experts.

Well, the twitter machines thought my tweets were spammy, so they immediately suspended my account. Fortunately, once they realized my intentions were good, we were back online within two hours.

All that aside, take these lead generation ideas to heart. It’s easy to read them and just nod your head saying ‘yes, good idea’. It’s another to take action and actually test whether it works for you.

Be a part of the second group. Take action.
