I just signed up for an awesome application called MarketMeTweet! Prior to MMT, I had been using Hootsuite to keep my three Twitter accounts running and to have everything in one place for easy access and use. But I just heard about MarketMeTweet last week, and this is the greatest Twitter app since sliced bread, in my opinion! I quickly became an affiliate of MMT, and just today I signed up as a user too!
What’s so great about MarketMeTweet? For me, it’s the ability to “brand my tweets”. Look at my tweet below, and you will notice at the bottom of the tweets it says “via American History Fun Facts” and “via Julia Hutchins Designs”. Those are my branded, clickable links to my websites, American History Fun Facts and Julia Hutchins Designs!
Isn’t that cool? Instead of advertising for Hootsuite, or Twitter, or Tweetdeck, I’m now able to advertise for my own websites! Not just one, but all of my websites! I set up a “brand” for all three of my Twitter accounts, with clickable links to my different sites. You can set up as many brands as you want, and use on as many Twitter accounts as you have.
Now this feature would be more than enough to sell me on MarketMeTweet, but they also offer lots of other great features. I can schedule tweets, either individually or bulk (by uploading a text file with multiple tweets). I can schedule them through Google calendar, which allows me to schedule my tweets through a mobile device that supports Google calendar. I can also look at all of my scheduled tweets by week, month or even year.
I can also look at my Facebook personal and business pages through MMT (and update them!), follow and unfollow people, send one tweet to all three of my Twitter accounts, import my RSS feeds to my Twitter accounts, set up reply campaigns, and so much more. This really is the perfect tool for my businesses, and I am so glad I found out about it!
If you are interested in trying them out, they offer a 3 day trial. That’s how I started out with them, and it’s only been one day and I already know I’m keeping it. I LOVE MarketMeTweet! Now I’m off to play with it some more!

Today, April 22nd, has been declared “National Thank Anne Day”. Who is Anne, you might ask?
The Anne that we are thanking is Anne from Made for me by Oaklie. Not only does Anne make gorgeous crocheted scarves and accessories, she also works tirelessly to help promote other artisans, like me. She started the “Share the Love… Blogger’s Unite” program that I participate in to promote fellow artisans on the On Fire For Handmade Ning network that I belong to.
Anne deserves her own day, and I am happy to participate in the “Thank Anne Day”! Thank you, Anne! You are very much appreciated!
Kathy is the owner and designer of KP Designs. She has wonderful pieces, each crafted with love! Stop by and see all KP Designs beautiful creations!

Social Networking & Marketing… I’ve been doing it all since moving back to my small home town this summer! I’m now a “Tweeter”, a “friend” to many, and “fanned” by some…thanks to social networking sites Facebook, Twitter, Ning and various other sites I’ve started using! The last month, I’ve really been concentrating on getting my website and jewelry “out there” – it takes a lot of time, but I’m learning so much and gaining new friends along the way!
My Twitter profile, juliahutchins, is a place where I regularly post my jewelry and interesting sites I find in my travels on the web. I also pass on interesting posts and sites that come through my Powertwitter dashboard. If you are a “tweeter”, I’d love to have you follow me! I’ll follow you back and look forward to exchanging tweets!
I’ve also added four new jewelry pages on Facebook – Julia Hutchins Designs, Custom Baby Jewelry, Handmade Custom Jewelry and Free Jewelry or Cash! I enjoy interacting with fans of my pages, and hope you’ll become a fan of any or all of my pages!
I’m also working on my 2nd newsletter for my business. I know that it is sooo important to publish a regular newsletter, and I’m resolving to start sending one out at least monthly! Please subscribe if you would like to receive these e-mails. I will not spam you with unwanted junk – you will just occasionally receive a newsletter to update you with news about my jewelry. I’ll also include special coupons or sale information that can save you some money! To sign up, click here.
Here’s one of my newest pieces…
