Check out their Twitter profile - Is their profile complete? Do they have a real photo? Do they have a real bio, and a real location, or is their profile incomplete in any way? You can see my profile at http://twitter.com/philgerb to see what I mean.

Look at their follower to following count - Good Twitter speakers will have slightly more followers than who they are following.

Review their stream of tweets – If you want a Twitter speaker who will engage your audience, look for one who has other people’s Twitter handles in their Twitter stream. If you’re looking for someone who will just talk to your audience, look for a lot of one line comments in their stream.

Extra credit – If you’re looking for a Twitter speaker who really has it all together, make sure they have a nifty Twitter background that lets their personality shine through.

If you want to hire a Twitter speaker who will connect with your audience and show them how to use Twitter to get more business and build a better reputation, contact me today.
