25 Best Twitter Chats for Marketers

Twitter chats are great engagement tools on social media. With your participation in each Twitter chat, you have an opportunity to learn new things, showcase thought leadership, get noticed by top business influencers, and grow your followers.

But keeping a track of all the Twitter chats out there is a difficult task.

In this article, I’ve listed 25 of the best Twitter chats for marketers.

If you’ve never participated in a Twitter chat before, don’t worry! Read the quick tips below to understand the basics of Twitter chats.

What is a Twitter Chat?

A Twitter chat is where a group of users meet at a pre-determined time on Twitter to discuss a certain topic, using a designated hashtag for each tweet contributed.

A host or moderator will pose questions to prompt responses from participants and encourage interaction among the group. Twitter chats usually last for an hour and most of them take place at the same time each week.

Why Should Marketers Participate in Twitter Chats?

Twitter chats provide a unique opportunity to network and grow your professional circle through shared interests. Through Twitter chats, you hear about useful tools and tips and meet like-minded people whom you might not have otherwise connected with.

Twitter chats can:

  • Provide marketers with an opportunity to network and share ideas with fellow marketers
  • Increase brand awareness and improve your influencer score
  • Showcase thought leadership
  • Gain new followers
  • Get an understanding of how to host your own Twitter chat

10 Quick Tips for Twitter Chat Participants

10 Quick Tips for Twitter Chats
  1. Follow Chat Salad on Twitter for updates on all Twitter chats and reminders before they start.
  2. Give your Twitter followers a heads-up before you join a Twitter chat at least 30 minutes before it starts so that they can be prepared for more tweets from your account aka “High Tweet Volume Warning”.
  3. Include a “.” in front of an @ if you want your tweet to show up in all feeds.
  4. Be polite and positive.
  5. Try to answer about 75% of the questions being asked.
  6. Don’t indulge in promotion of yourself or your brand. Twitter chats are all about learning and networking, not selling your product.
  7. Always include the chat hashtag in your responses.
  8. Don’t be afraid to engage in conversation with others. You should also quote, like, retweet, and follow others as appropriate, which will encourage them to do the same for you.
  9. When answering a specific question or comment from another participant, use Twitter handles to identify who you’re speaking to in order to avoid confusion.
  10. Follow up with people after the chat! Keep the conversation going or get to know fellow participants on a more personal level. You never know what new connections you can make!
