YEAR-ROUND TAX TWEETS

Overview

Tweeting is a great tool for social media engagement to increase your visibility in the tax services arena and also build or reinforce relationships outside the busy season. Twitter also enables you to share timely news about the profession, your industry or organization and stay informed regarding news and events important to the profession.

The tweets below are divided into individual and business tax sections and cover topics that would be of interest to clients or potential clients such as:

·  compliance

·  retirement

·  investment and financial planning

·  identity theft

·  deductions

·  business entity choice

·  business planning

The hashtag #CPA360Tax added to the tweets is optional. It helps the AICPA determine which tweets are most often used; that way, we ensure that we provide you with helpful content. We also added hashtags for keywords that will make the tweets easier to find for Twitter users searching on those topics - free to add your own.

To be effective in Twitter, we recommend approaching it somewhat like a conference where you focus on presenting yourself and your skill set in a professional manner. Being overly pushy, pitchy or sales-oriented in your Twitter conversations will not endear you to the community at large. Investing time in establishing relationships with your fellow Twitter users will pay dividends in the long run.

Do you have questions about Twitter? Read the AICPA Twitter User Guide, which gives a concise, easy-to-read walk-through of Twitter features. We have several other social media user guides as well, including ones on Facebook and LinkedIn (member log-in required).
