jvAlert Live Orlando February 6-8, 2009 Top 30 Most Requested Speakers Canada Marketing Summit, March 26-29, 2009 Vancouver, BC, Can You Afford Not To Attend?
Jan 13

My 1000th Twitter Follower Milestone was reached at 1:44 AM January, 12, 2009 and I immediately jumped up and did a Happy Dance!

My Twitter post read: “John_Cussons: @PLRContent Joel Osborne YOU ARE MY 1000TH FOLLOWER! 1:44am the email arrived I just did a Happy Dance Now I can go to bed Thx to ALL”

I began a countdown on http://Twitter.com when I was at 988 and I felt sure I would make it to 1000 before the end of the day…so I campaigned and almost went to bed before the magic number was reached. I am so glad I stayed up to witness it happening and have so much fun!

Just for the fun of it all, here are the peeps who brought me to the 1000th mark:

    Not everyone can get to 1,000 Twitter followers, so it’s a great achievement, congratulations again!

    Are you counting down 2,000 yet? What about 10,000? :)

    Joel Osborne

    p.s. Thanks for the mention. I was just wanting you to get some sleep :)

    Hi John,

    Congrats on achieving such an admirable Twitter milestone! I am impressed and will use my current internal dissatisfaction (thanks for giving my current frustration a name, Duane!) and the Law of Attraction to see if I can’t get my followers up to 900 this week. THAT will be a big step toward achieving your mark.

    Will you consider posting a vidoe of you doing the Happy Dance? I would find that inspirational.

    All for now!

  9. "Mr Emotions" [John Cussons] Says:

    Anne

    That is a great suggestion! I tell people all the time that at least once a day something extraordinary happens in my life and I get up from my desk and actually do a HAPPY DANCE!

    I invite them to do the same and I am usually laughed at. No one yet has told me that they have done it, [they may have secretly - I hope] and I feel they are missing an absolutely positive mood changing experience – it is awesome.

    For several years now the The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation [ http://www.olg.ca ] has been running TV ad campaigns where lottery winners ’show off’ their Happy Dances. I’ve adopted the fun and joy of doing this when anything positive comes my winning way :)

    So I WILL make a video of me doing a Happy Dance and post it very soon and thanks for the great suggestions Anne!

    I wonder if people know that you and Steve can create professional Revolution blogs for others like your own blog site http://boomerlifestyle.com ?

    Hey John! What fun to see you reach your goals. The cool thing is knowing what your goals are — and reaching 2,000 sounds like a great next target! Looking forward to working with you more in 2009!

    Thanks for the kind words. We have to get you set up with a Twitter account eh!?

    I have signed up and look forward to your Affiliate Program launch coming soon at http://canadaofficesupplies.net/affiliate.

    An amazing opportunity as you are the only online ‘Big Box’ office supplies retailer in Canada offering an Affiliate Program AND affiliates don’t have to be Canadian. Me thinks you have a ground floor opportunity here.

    Speaking of reaching goals I checked out the site linked to your name and I am impressed with what the http://www.rach-fund.com is doing!

    “Since 2004, RACH Fund has raised over $260,000 for Brain Tumour Research, in support of the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation!” [Read the Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada http://www.pmhf-uhn.ca ]

    I also see you are having your 6th Annual 3 Pitch Tournament June 19-21, 2009 in Parry Sound, Ontario [Home to Bobby Orr!]

    So thanks for praising my goals but Kudos go to you and the RACH Fund for the awesome job you are doing in raising funds and awareness for Brain Tumour Research!!

    Much continued success!

    Thanks for leaving your comment.

    When you get the hang of Twitter you will see a significant change in others’ awareness of your Not-For-Profit business http://www.coare.com catering to persons with disabilities of all kinds, seniors and those with diabetes.

    I enjoy helping you and Rex with increasing your customer base. With your ‘very’ personal approach to customer service, your empathy and kindness I am confident that 2009 will be a banner year for you, Rex and COARE.

    With your new full line of incontinence products I am excited for the growth this will bring you – so here’s to 2009 and beyond!

    John great post. Great idea to thank those that helped you get there. Congrats and good work on the campaign. I am well on my way to 1000 myself. The other day I spent 8 hours straight interacting on Twitter and I shared my results in a guest blog post.

    Let me know what you think if you haven’t read it yet.

    Cory

    Just finished reading your post @ http://www.danmartell.com/twitter-growth-an-8-hour-experiment/ and commented [In Moderation hope it gets approved :) ]

    The results of you experiment were very interesting and I appreciate the new resources I picked up from your post namely http://crazybob.org/twubble/ http://justtweetit.com/ and http://www.twittercounter.com

    I am familiar and use http://search.twitter.com/ extensively to follow others and topics.

    Let me add a another search tool in http://www.twellow.com/

    You might find these metrics interesting:
    99.1% Twitter Grade from http://twitter.grader.com/john_cussons
    #10 Rank by Location, Ontario, Canada as seen within the above report

    I am not a prolific ‘tweeter’ but do try to add value and engage with others.

    So Cory keep me posted as you get close to your 1000th mark and I’ll do what I can to help you attain that milestone as well OK?

    Thanks so much for stopping by to comment I appreciate it.

    You have a great looking site with a healthy PR4.

    May I suggest that if you aren’t on http://twitter.com that you jump in with both feet and also adding Social Bookmarking tags to you site would help to increase your visibility.

    Thanks for the well wishes. And if I have spurred you on – great!

    I took a moment to visit your site and I am very impressed with your beautiful song “Spirit of America” and accompanying video at http://www.selfhealingmadeeasy.com/soa/video.html

    Although this is a 9/11 message which will forever be remembered, it got me thinking of the up coming Inauguration Day 2009 for your new president Barack Obama. Incidentally this official site uses Twitter! http://www.inauguration.dc.gov/index.asp

    I just read this post and this is quite the achivement, so I now understand how hard it must have been to get to 1 million. I have a couple hundred and don’t know most, so I really don’t understand why you would need 1 million, but to each their own.

So I’ll be back and see whether you’ll be answering :o ).
