When I mention to clients about how useful Twitter is for marketing and brand-building, they usually are surprised, or think I’m just a Twitter addict (guilty as charged!) trying to justify using the latest distraction.

There’s a lot of great case studies I could point to, but one very famous personality stands out as a fantastic example of how best to use Twitter: physician and best-selling author Deepak Chopra ( @Deepak_Chopra ).

I know that every solopreneur struggles with this, whether it’s viewed as a fun aspect of being in business for yourself… or an uncomfortable marketing necessity.
