Are You on Twitter?


I have mentioned it before, but it bears repeating; Check us out on Twitter! What the heck is Twitter you say? Twitter is a new social media tool that is being used in many widely varied ways. At first blush it kind of seems like a huge crowd of people all trying to get your attention. If you can work through that initial overload shock there are some ways where it begins to make sense.

The "ONE" method I will mention here is for using Twitter as a news or rumor search engine. Instead of reading the canned publications news reporting, sometimes it is very interesting to see what the vast Twitterherd of people think. By using some basic commands you can dive into this huge traffic jam of thoughts and pull out just the pieces you would like. This article does a great job of explaining how all of this works... and includes an enlarged version of this search cheat sheet chart.



As for Autopartstomorrow on Twitter, you will find us by searching @autopartstom and @aptomorrow. It is a great venue for our coupon codes and we list them there quite often. Please visit and follow us there, and we promise to keep you informed about our industry and throw in added savings ideas from time to time (Here is a hint- Check it out on the last few days of the month).

Car Maintenance



If you don't take care of your car it won't take long until it won't take care of you anymore. If you don't wash your car it could rust. Maybe not as badly as in the photo, but I wouldn't take a chance. These days people tend to put off expenses a little longer than in the past. The reality is however that saving a little money today on maintenance is not always the best idea long term. Let me make a suggestion. There are many items that you may have paid someone else to do for you in the past that you could probably do yourself.

With all of the resources on the internet today there are many ways to research how to do your own Car Maintenance. You might find how-to videos on YouTube. Articles or stories on Google or Wikipedia, and maybe even a helpful mechanic on Twitter.

Wherever you find the tips on how to do your repair, always remember that you will get the best parts at the best prices from Autopartstomorrow.com.

Follow Us on Twitter



I have heard Twitter described as standing in the middle of a huge traffic jam trying to hand out business cards! To the newbies out there, it does kind of seem like that. In order to increase your following numbers it becomes necessary to follow people that don't really fall into your exact category or niche. The cool thing about our company is that almost everyone has a car, so even the butterfly aficianado from New Mexico still might need an air filter for her Subaru.

One secret that I have found to fine tune our promotions is the LIST function. As your following grows it becomes neccessary to separate followers into sub-groups. I have begun the process, creating automotive, classic cars, etc., but I see that I will eventually need to refine it even more. I have even created three separate accounts, @bradcatron , @autopartstom and @carpartscoupon so that my communications make more sense.

Sometimes it is even helpful for things like this months discount coupon code. I can Tweet from all three that you can get an extra 5% on top of our volume discount on top of our already wholesale prices by using COUPON CODE 5472052c (and now it is on my blog and will also post to Facebook).

I really enjoy promoting Autopartstomorrow.com because I have been here for 15 years and really like the people you will be dealing with. I also have done enough research to know that we are KILLING the competition on price, before volume discounts, and before the coupon code 5472052c (see how I mentioned that again). Anyway, do yourself a favor... Like Us on Facebook and Follow all of our accounts on Twitter so that you always know as soon as we release any new Coupon Codes. Helping you save money is my job... Make me look good!
