This Week's Guest: Brandon Mendelson (@BJMendelson on Twitter)

I am brimming with excitement over my next guest on TVPG Radio's Get More Business Show!  Please Join me at 11:30am Eastern on Wednesday June 10, 2009 at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/get-more-business/2009/06/10/Get-More-Business-Featuring-Brandon-Mendelson-Charitable-Crusader.  I'm going to be interviewing Brandon Mendelson.  Brandon is a Charitable Crusader, recently completing a nationwide tour promoting breast health through his Check Early, Check Often campaign.  Currently he's very busy with his A Million High Five's initiative. 

If you don't know who Brandon Mendelson (@BJMendelson) is, let me tell you.  He's a part of the Twitter Top 100, with over 600,000 followers.  He's achieved this status mostly in the last 6 months.  600k followers sounds like a lot, but let me give you a little perspective.

If Twitter is a popularity contest, Brandon Mendelson is more popular than:

• The one-time world's largest computer manufacturer @DellOutlet
• The one-time world's most popular twit @stephenfry
• The 90's most successful recording artist @MariahCarey
• An iconic magazine @peoplemag
• The voice of bi-sexuality @KatyPerry
• Network News @CBSNews
• The best Comedy Central has to offer @StephenAtHome & @StephenColbert
• The Terminator @Schwarzenegger
• Wolverine @RealHughJackman
• Cronic, Gin and Juice @snoopdog
• Coffee @Starbucks

Yes, I know I'm being a little controversial, but hopefully you'll tune in!  There's been a lot of back and forth about the validity of Twitter as a platform to grow and improve your business.  Someone with hundred's of thousands and soon to be millions of followers has a unique perspective on that question.

Want to know how @BJMendelson got so many followers? I'll ask him! Want to know what hundreds of thousands or even millions of Twitter followers could do for your business or your charitable cause? Don't miss our show to get Brandon's answers to these and other questions!
