Hi, We've been thinking about this recently, and one way we approached this is through Twitter ads. Twitter allows us to target ads to a list of users if we have their twitter handles. We promote a tweet containing a link to a survey in the ad. On the practical side, unfortunately we haven't had great success in getting the ads to run, but that might be me not being able to set it up right. If anyone has thought of this, and/or has tried it, I'd be happy to hear from them. Regards, Kiran Garimella MIT On Sun, May 10, 2020 at 12:35 AM Muira McCammon <muira.n.mccammon@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi, all,
I have always appreciated the rich methodological discussions on the this listserv. I was curious to talk with folks to hear about what kinds of strategies have worked for them in reaching out to followers of Twitter accounts. I am particularly interested in hearing from anyone, who has ever conducted research that relied on tweeting a survey at specific Twitter users whose other contact information might otherwise unavailable (i.e. DMs are closed and limited personally identifiable info is disclosed in their profiles).
Thank you for sharing any insights you might have on this matter in advance.
Wishing you all health and reasonably good spirits,
Muira
