Dell, the third-largest maker of PCs, ranks behind Hewlett-Packard Co. and Acer Inc. in worldwide sales of PCs. However, the company attributes its success to Twitter to a great extent in terms of sales. As per Dell Inc. its promotions on Twitter have helped generate more than $6.5 million in orders for PCs, accessories and software. The company anyway relies on social-networking sites to drum up sales of personal computers.

Dell’s journey on twitter

111 Dell started using Twitter two years ago to reach new customers. The $6.5 million represents the total amount generated through direct customer interactions on Twitter over that time. While those sales are a fraction of Dell’s $61.1 billion in annual revenue last year, the company sees Twitter as one of its most significant ways of interacting with customers.

Manish Mehta, vice president of Dell’s online unit said on this -“It’s a very vibrant channel for us and it’s growing aggressively. It’s not just our reach and growth that has progressed; it’s that it’s happening globally.”
