30 Young Entrepreneurs You Should Be Following on Twitter
 

Hello Everyone,

Recently I have been using Twitter a lot and I have noticed the effects of it on my business, it helps:

- Keeps me up to date with my industry instantly! If you want to know anything before anyone else, even the news then the only place you can get that is Twitter!

- Networking with other Young Entrepreneurs, I have run a success young entrepreneurs website for over 2 years now and have met a lot of young entrepreneurs but since joining twitter I have met over 50 new really remarkable young entrepreneurs that I may of not met if it wasn’t for Twitter. Don’t ever think you know everyone in your niche, because there is always someone out there.

- Research, It is great for finding out more about people and also finding new people. If it wasn’t for Twitter then I wouldn’t know that John Reese was into Cars and Haris’s mum liked Mc Donalds over KFC.

- Questions Answered, If I want to know anything then I can ask my followers!

There is no place else out there that I know I can do all of these things in one place and for FREE! I would love to connect with you all, you can follow myself (MichaelDunlop) by clicking here and you can follow Retierat21 by click here.

I would also like to thank Joel Drapper and Shonika Proctor for their help with creating the list.

I decided to ask a few of my followers why they love using Twitter:

tjmapes @Retireat21 I use it for networking, and staying current in certain communities. Even current events. Beats watching the news

mikhailjon @Retireat21 Twitter allows you to connect with your market in a more intimate level. It brings you much closer to them, closer to their needs.

meethere @Retireat21 I use twitter to learn and get updated to my niche world. It also helps to market my site. Also helps to make lots of friends !

vincenttobiaz @Retireat21 I use Twitter to network with others in my area of interests, marketing, web design, seo, etc. Also if i find or learn anything cool

drnickyoung @Retireat21 Why do I use Twitter? Well “a little bird told me to!!! Seriously though, easy and fast to use, high profile site, accessible.

fast180 @Retireat21 to build a value platform for networking to greater business opportunities online.

To our sucess in 2009,

Michael Dunlop

    Thank you for the link. This is a very good post. One idea might be to make a dynamic list for this similar to the young bloggers?

  2. Hami says: 28th, January

    Great list and a nice blog. Saad hamid and Haris Nadeem are really good in persons and quite worthy to talk with.

  3. Farrhad A says: 28th, January

    Thanks for including me in the list!!!!!

  4. Sophie Marston says: 28th, January

    Twitter really is a great tool for networking that Young Entrepreneurs should be utilising…I know I am working on it!

    Nice post and a good list.

    Sophie

  5. Joel Drapper says: 28th, January

    Nice list Michael! Thanks for including me :D

    @Shane Top young Tweeple? Good idea! :P

  6. Marco says: 28th, January

    Nice list, I’ll be following a couple of them ! Too bad that I wasn’t included, but better luck next time :) .

  7. Alex Fraiser says: 28th, January

    Thanks a ton for including me in this list. Really surprised I got in! :D

  8. Farrhad A on Twitter! says: 28th, January

    In addition to my previous comment:

    Although I am very happy of being on the list and I understand this only involves Twitter, I really do not think Twitter followers can measure a persons success.

    You must count the blog/website.

    But then if you do that whats the difference between YoungestBlogger.com and this….hmm…..quite debatable…lol!…

  9. Michael says: 28th, January

    Hello Farrhad,

    The point of the list was just to show of some Twitter users who are good to follow. If you want successful young bloggers then you should visit – http://www.retireat21.com/top_young_bloggers/

  10. Farrhad A on Twitter! says: 28th, January

    @Michael Got the point ;)
    Am already on that list :D

    PS> Just sent you a mail.

  11. Shane Hudson says: 28th, January

    One thing a lot of us are starting to do is have two twitter accounts. Eg. I have @ShaneHudson for general twittering and @SuccessCircuit for things related to my website. Do you think this is a good idea?

  12. Farrhad A on Twitter! says: 28th, January

    @Shane
    I tried doing the same thing….but I have many projects….i prefer keeping stuff in one place.

  13. Michael says: 28th, January

    @Shane @Farrhad,

    I recommend it because, on my main account, I only follow 100 people but have over 500 followers, I use this account to follow people I really am interested in knowing what they are doing right now. If it was anymore than that then I would struggle to keep up with them.

    My Retireat21 account is to follow everyone and to keep everyone upto date with Retireat21, I found creating the account sent me quite a bit of traffic as well.

    Michael

  14. Robby G says: 28th, January

    I’m gonna be on that list one day. I just know it. @Robby_G13

  15. Evan says: 28th, January

    Ditto @ Shane Hudson. Retireat21 follows our startup @isocket, but our 23 year old CEO is on a separate name at @jpramey.

  16. Tom - StandOutBlogger.com says: 28th, January

    Great list Michael! I added most of these to my account!

  17. Andy says: 28th, January

    Ha, great list. Wish i could be on it. :)

  18. Tom Ross says: 28th, January

    Great list, I can’t believe I just missed out! :P

  19. Gennaro says: 28th, January

    I just jumped on the twitter ship and can see the benefits. Especially within a niche. Lots of things are uncovered (stories, ideas) in real-time.

  20. The Blogger Source says: 28th, January

    Wow I actually have follow quite a few of them. Good to see such youthful enthusiasm.

  21. Jason O'Neill says: 29th, January

    I’m so honored!! Being on this list means I’m doing something right. :) Sometimes it can be pretty tough. Thank you very much.

  22. Tim says: 29th, January

    Wait you almost forgot Tim Norton of MindMorsel.

    Wait a second that’s just me!

  23. Matt Pippen says: 29th, January

    You said share your Twitter account, so if you want to follow, it’s http://www.twitter.com/mattpippen.

  24. Aravind Jose T. says: 29th, January

    This is sweet. Congrats for coming up with this and I’m honoured to be in the list. :)

  25. Meghna says: 29th, January

    Thank you for compiling this awesome list. I’m honored to be amongst these great people :)

  26. Xscape says: 29th, January

    It’s amazing to think that some of these entrepreneurs are 14 and 15 years old. I really started late lol. Still, thanks for the list, I’m going to have to add a few.

  27. Lucky says: 29th, January

    Twitter is great but you must mention that it is only as good as you make it for yourself. You get what you give. The more active and helpful you are to your community, the better they will be to you and the more willing they will be to help you out when you need it.
    An active twitter user can travel across the world and tweet that he needs a couch to crash on, and then find one within minutes. A non active user, even with thousands of followers won’t get any replies.

  28. lift says: 29th, January

    Great list! The twitter wave that people are catching is only getting bigger and bigger.

    No doubt that twitter is a great broadcasting tool. It’s actually quite similar to Myspace’s concept of the bulletin. This broadcasting tool is great for advertising.
