Get Deals and Special Offers via Twitter
Fellow blogger, Peg Corwin, recently wrote a post on the benefits of Twitter for small business. Dell has also recognized the potential of Twitter and has created a special account, Twitter.com/DellSmBizOffers, to provide deals and promotions to small biz owners. If you’re in the market for new computer equipment, it’s worth following.
