Ever wondered what a Klout Score is, that's related to your Twitter account?
Well, it's suppose to give you some sort of meaningful ranking. And indeed, everyone gets a number. Let's take a quick look at what a Klout Score is and, more importantly, what it gives you and what it fails to do.

A very high percentage of people who start decide to give up.Some say this is as many as 98%. I have seen hundreds give up in the past 18 months. So it is fair to say that it is not that easy. However many people succeed at it and get fantastic results.
It’s amazing isn’t it? We’ve all had to ensure a sales assistant telling you ‘Sorry, it’s company policy’ or ‘I just work here unfortunately’.
