With Twitter applying more functionality to their platform in regard to buying and selling, it might be good to take a look at some tools and options to help you or your business sell.  SocialMediaExaminer.com shares eight Twitter tools that will help analyze data, gain insights, and boost sales.

#1: Create Twitter Coupons

You can use social platforms like TwtQpon to create coupons and launch exclusive deals via Twitter, similar to Groupon or Living Social.  This is a great tool to help online retailers close sales while enabling social media marketing reach.

#2: Target Local Customers

SocialBro is a community management and analysis tool that aims to save their users money with geo-targeted ads.  Users can reach out to specific groups and locations where they sell (or hope to sell) their products.
