I have been working in some twitter communication campaigns and I can tell you 2% that you are talking about is real, but as a Ctr not as conversion rate. As you can see on Google, not everybody thats clicks on an ad , buys or is counted as conversation. Any marketer that could be considered a good marketer should not mesure clicks, you have to measure actions. On twitter, actions are a medium- long turn effort, and well at least for me twitter should be used as a conversation tool not an old media marketing channel. I guess there will be a lot of people and brands who will profit from having a massive amount of followers, but the key is not how many people you can get to follow you but how many people you can get to interact with you, and interacting with 200,000 is like trying to have sex with all of them... insane. :D Cheers! Again great post! Nice post, but I do not agree.
