You have to listen to other convesations first, exchange some small talk, establish relationships, know when, what, and how much to say, create relevant and appropriate business conversations and add value first. Then after you've established credibility and helped others you can occassionally talk about your business- even promote it. Just do it tactfully and mind your manners.

I would like to point to @starbucks. They offered a twitter coupon for a free cup of coffee and pastry a while back. The only proof to receive the products with the production of the tweet or (i think) you could go to their website and print out a coupon. However, I believe Starbucks notified the franchisee and they knew what to expect. So, offering coupons through twitter is most effective, particularly if you use a particular brand and I tend to follow companies whose products I use.

Some recruiting and outsourcing companies use their Twitter accounts only as a means of posting a stream of jobs and nothing else. This completely diminishes the idea of building relationships on Twitter. We don't post any jobs and instead offer our followers useful links, insights and company updates (when it's something we feel contributes to our audience and customers).
