So getting retweets definitely helps build your community of followers and friends. It's why Twitter works as a viral machine.

I suppose it works because your long list of followers are not likely to see them. Kind of like casting a fishing line. Just because you tweeted once, doesn't mean every fish is seeing your hook. Hmmm. Thanks for sharing that Rhonda. Retweeting? I suppose it works because your long list of followers are not likely to see them. Kind of like casting a fishing line.

I appreciate your belief and it sounds like you are speaking from personal experience. I have met many coaches who had a big passion for something (a topic or a market) that never paid off after a half dozen years of really going for it. Some markets just aren't motivated to invest in their own personal and professional growth. Moms for example isn't a viable niche market for coaches. If a coach targets moms, and wants to help them with motherhood or balance -- those folks don't consistently invest because their focus is their kids and that's where they invest. It's been proven over and over. And I know it's a sad realization to many coaches. Now there are moms within other markets that do invest in coaching, but they are motivated by other topics than being a mom. There are other markets coaches feel passionate about that don't go the distance. So I show coaches how to choose one that will and I fully believe they will feel passion about. Sometimes we have to let the passion arise and not expect to be there from the get-go. Hi Jofi, Thanks so much. I appreciate your belief and it sounds like you are speaking from personal experience.

I really believe if you are passionate about a specific market/niche you will be successful, but you need to be consistent with it. You can not feel let down if at the beginning it does not work or is going slower than you thought, if that is really your passion, the road you are going, things will turn out for the better.
