Its the power of social media. Oprah Winfrey somehow managed to make $12.5 million from a single tweet about bread. Damn!


Eat bread. Lose weight. Whaaatttt? #ComeJoinMe https:///jUgpk9ToXY https:///xtnB53EwSf

— Oprah Winfrey (@Oprah) January 26, 2016

Apparently she tweeted the above to her over 31 million followers in which she claims to have lost 26lbs (almost 12kg) by following a Weight Watchers (she own 6.4 million shares in the company, approximately 10 percent of the stock) healthy eating programme by eating bread every day. This single tweet has seen the diet company’s US share prices skyrocket by 20 per cent.

The recent spike in share prices equates to a $12.5 million (approximately £8,742,000) earning for Winfrey on a single tweet, or more than $3 million an hour.

Wow! thats some leverage and the power of social media at work. If you are not already an active user, you are missing out.

Totally agree with you! There is a move from mainstream media to social media these days. A good example is the use of blogs like Linda Ikeji's for reaching people during the last general election in Nigeria.
