In what way is it tedious?

[The Deadly]

It is tedious when any celebrity does it not just Chris. You are the kind of person the tweets are aimed at though so it's no surprise you seem to enjoy those types of tweets.

[JayE]

No, I just don't see anything wrong with plugging something on Twitter.

[The Deadly]

Will you be saying the same thing when after he has plugged it several times a day for the next month ?

[JayE]

I don't care what Chris tweets about. I'm not going to get bothered over a celebrity tweeting about a new project they have coming up, really not my top priority.

Disingenuous self promotion of a product that a majority of your followers won't be interested in is an engagement strategy which will yield awful results. It's likely to incite your audience to unfollow, and as Chris doesn't have any content to draw new followers in - it would be very difficult for him to retain his current figures.

As Chris will need to rely on his Twitter following to launch or promote any future projects, he would do well to avoid doing such things. When people follow an account on Twitter, they will only unfollow if you give them a reason to - it would make a lot more sense to stay quiet if you have nothing interesting to say, but interject occasionally with generic tweets. Something which Chris has been doing.

Chris' twitter account is ultimately akin to a corporate account, and if he uses it to repeatedly plug an old product - he will lessen the impact which the account could potentially have in the future.

[The Deadly]

What's wrong with Chris flogging JCS tickets for a musical that he's involved in on his own Twitter account?

Seems you are pretty bothered about it as you were the one who questioned the slight criticism of Chris' use of Twitter.

[JayE]

Yeah moaning about what someone tweets about is pointless when you yourself hold the power to unfollow them.

[chrysostom]

Don't ignore my explanation Jay. It's rude.

Good points, but I highly doubt that Chris is going to stop plugging it.

[Boboff]

This does not bother me at all.

It seems a little sad that JayE getting a battering for saying something in support.

JayE Chrys is very intelligent and all, and is very learned on this particular subject, BUT this is only his opinion, marketing;nothing is other than supposition and using data to prove a theory, it's interesting and all, creative and fun, but it's not science.

Bieber gobbing on a fan... not good news, anyway, I am back over to Ask.FM, apparently there Mods are shite!

[chrysostom]

Given that he's only plugged it 9 times in the last 4 months - I'd guess that Yuds' comment was more a reflection of how little he has going on rather than a genuine concern!

Boboff is right, I may not be 100% correct on the matter, just offering an explanation why product promotion on Twitter needs to have a surrounding content strategy - and when it doesn't it comes across as lazy, tedious and encourages people to unfollow.

[Boboff]

I follow and enjoy reading the tweets of Piers Morgan, and I think he's a *.

It's your world Chrys, and it's all this here young uns.

Anyway I have ironing to be getting on with.

How iron-ic.

[Topher]

I, on the other hand, have blocked him so people who I follow who retweet him don't make him appear in my timeline.

[The Deadly]

Are we doing iron puns now? Not sure how long that'll last until someone gets board.

It's starch contrast to the knee puns we did the other day.

[Yudster]

Absolutely nothing Jay, I was just saying what he did. I don't mind him doing it at all, although I do find it a little bit sad that they are apparently struggling to sell them, presumably hence the BOGOF.

[The Deadly]

Chris is at it again with his 2 for 1 deal on Twitter. I can see this annoying me soon.

[chrysostom]

You're going to Liverpool?

[The Deadly]

Apparently Chris Brown has had a seizure. Excellent news.

[Boboff]

Drunk, wank, charls Loves You and you Yuds, Chrts Bluss Yu Babbbym Deadlt, XXX LOv eyou,
