According to an August 2009 study conducted by Pear Analytics, 40% of the tweets on Twitter are nothing but pointless babble.

What does RT mean on Twitter ?
RT means ReTweet - Give credit to The Tweeter
When you see RT on Twitter it is always followed by @stacykinney (Example). This means that someone is re stating what someone else said. You are giving credit to the person who made the statement much like you would do with a quote.
You want to make sure that you always give credit. Do not ever cut and paste a tweet and make it your own. That is a big NO NO on Twitter.

Promoting your brand with a social media marketing campaign focused on addressing the needs of your target audience is an almost guaranteed way of driving customers to your business.
Before the internet came around, the only way to reach potential customers was to either advertise on the media outlets available at the time - i.e. newspapers, television and radio - or to directly connect with them by interrupting their day with a telemarketing call or approaching them on the street.
These days, however, social media has turned the sales process upside down and inside out. Customers hate being sold to and thus are resistant to the outdated sales tactics, such as cold calling, still being used today. Customers know what they need and use social media to seek out people they can trust to help them. Therefore running a social media marketing campaign has become a necessity for successfully attracting these customers to you.
