Video Case study on how to find targeted Twitter followers using ski as a key tweet word

(If you're not a ski product or a ski destination, read on. This article, and its accompanying video, can still apply to your product or service no matter what you sell.)

Ski destinations, snowboard shops, ski manufacturers, or ski magazines will be really intrigued by this video on how to use a program called Tweet Adder to find new people to follow on Twitter. Why? Because the more new people you follow, the more they might follow you back.

Following others doesn't guarantee they will follow you back, but at least when you do begin following someone, it sends up a smoke signal to them that says, "Hey, look at me".

In this video, I perform a search to find people who tweeted about the word "ski" in the last 5 days to demonstrate the ability of the Tweet Adder software to quickly and easily pull up the user id's of Twitter followers who tweeted about "ski". The same search principal can be applied with any word, depending on the topic, service or product you are interested in. See how it's done using the word "ski" and then try it for yourself by downloading Tweet Adder's free trial. Enter in the key tweet word you want to search and see how many people you can begin following.



Thank you for reading and watching!

Sovereign Lake Nordic Centre near #Vernon is an early ski season skier's heaven

by June Hawkins, special to VernonGirl.com

Heaven, I’m in Heaven...

And it’s all because of snow!!

For those who live in the Okanagan Valley, each season brings its own reason why we live here.  Cross country skiers know just why this is the best place on earth: early snow.

Sovereign Lake Nordic Centre, on Silver Star Mountain, boasts of the earliest openings of any cross country ski area in North America.  Sitting at 1664 metres (5500 feet) above sea level, rain in the valley translates into snow at these higher elevations.  The Sovereign Lake Nordic Club is one of the largest in Canada, with 1400 members and a season that is six months long, a skier’s heaven.

This season, Nordic enthusiasts have been skiing since the 5th of November and with the large amount of snow that has fallen, the conditions of the trails is comparable to mid season.

News of the early season open explodes out into the Nordic community and skiers come from as far away as Vancouver and Washington to get on the snow sooner than their compatriots. 

Downhill skiers in the Okanagan also have reason to love to live here: two great areas, Silver Star Mountain and Big White. Plus they also have ski areas within about a 2 hour drive time of Vernon: Revelstoke Mountain Resort and Sun Peaks Resort.  Many have taken up cross country skiing so they don’t have to wait for the lifts to open to enjoy winter’s playground a little sooner.

Nordic skiers are gliding away the hours on some stellar snow, don’t you just want to get out and join them?
