I didn't mean to imply that business accounts should simply be an announcement system - plenty of companies can benefit from interacting with their audience and injecting a little personality into their tweets. What I meant was that people shouldn't use their business account to start telling people every detail of their personal lives. I don't want to know what the 'company' is having for dinner and I don't need to know that their girlfriend just picked them up from the train station. People follow business accounts because they have an interest in the business. This doesn't discount the person behind the business - it just means I'd rather hear about stuff the company is doing rather than the minutae of the individual's life. I know what you mean Rosie!

I worry that if my tweets are all work work work then they become tedious and akin to just shouting at followers with a fog horn ABOUT MY BUSINESS! Maybe best to tweak your tweets with a non-business tweet every now and then and show the personality behind the tweet? Hmmm, this one’s left me a little bit confused.
