Twitter quick tip: Set profile image before following

If you are going to launch a new Twitter account for your congregation, make sure you set a profile image.  You should have something other than the default little twitter bird before you start following others.  When you click “follow” that user will get an email (depending on settings) notifying them you’ve chosen to follow them.  That’s when they will naturally start following you back.  Generic accounts without a custom profile image come across as either unprofessional or as potential spam.  Either way, you’ll get more people following back if you have a set profile image.  Log in to Twitter, go to Settings, then  edit your Profile. There you can upload any image you want, resize and crop it.
