Are you on Twitter yet?

CFANPC members and followers:

Let me demonstrate the power of "tweeting"...

After our meeting last Thursday, I "tweeted" that CFANPC had 2 member meetings in one night and were 230 members strong in 2015 and engaged in the conversation. I also included the trending phrase #npslead. My "tweet" went to my 117 followers. Because I used the #npslead, a trending phrase being monitored by AANP, the message was picked up by AANP and "retweeted" to their 11, 000 followers! This is the power of twitter in increasing our circle of influence!

As members and followers of CFANPC, I again request you to download twitter and start following people (to include legislators!) and organizations that can assist us in the conversation this legislative season!

I am providing refined directions (thanks Joey!):

Step 1: Download the app "twitter" to your electronic device

Step 2: Choose your @ (this is your "twitter" handle, example mine is @AngieRitten, our CFANPC group is @CFL_arnps)

Step 3: Include in your fist message: @AngieRitten @ARNPJoey @CFL_arnps #NPslead (When you do this you will send message to me, Joey, our group and you will trend the #phrase)

(@ is used to "tag people"or "tag groups" AND # is used for titles, trends and phrases)

Let's expand our "circle of influence" by learning to "tweet" and get the job done in 2016!

In your service,

Angie Ritten, CFANPC President, 2015
