Yeah, One of the DCM candidates had the idea of attempting to convince Twitter to let us very cheaply ($1) or freely use the "sponsored tweet" targeting on Twitter if we did it only for our followers. I have absolutely no idea if that's a possibility in the Twitter system (when I chatted about it with a colleague there they were unsure but didn't know enough about the backend of the system. They mostly weren't sure how easy it would be to build in as a follower only option.) but it's certainly an interesting idea (and even if it does nothing other then encourage them to have regular targeting as an option like facebook does for some accounts it's unlikely to hurt us to ask :) ).
