10 Types Of People You Will Meet During A Tweetup

What is a Tweetup? It is an event whereby people on Twitter meet in real life. Finally, one can put a face to the name they know and talk to each other in more then 140 characters. So, one can say that it’s kind of like a networking event.

Such gatherings can provide ample opportunities for listening in on hot topics that can help to improve your business, gain advice from the people that have been there and done that and participate in discussions on subjects close to your heart. Here is the list of the 10 archetypes into which we have classified the people whom one may meet at a tweetup.

The Job Seeker

These are the people who fall into the category of ‘in between opportunities’, ‘self-employed’ etc. At such events these people are on a mission.

The Tick

If you have met this kind, then you have learned your lessons. If not, then you will learn it after the next couple of times. These are the kind of people who are not comfortable in a group.They are not really a people's person you can say. Hence they will search for an easy going personalities and if anyone shows some interest in them, they attach themselves to him/her for the rest of the night.

The Distraction

You might wonder why such a term? Here is the answer. These are the kind of people who will lure you into the most interesting conversations. They are funny and serve as good company. But you will realize that you have spent most of your evening in idle chit chat and nothing fruitful came out of it.  You guys may become great friends but remember you’re here to gain something.
