How many Twitter followers do you need to start selling tweets?
Services that allow you to sell tweets have minimum requirements, on how many Twitter followers you have, before you can create an account. I've seen a BuySellAds.com tweeter selling tweets with only 1754 Twitter followers.
Most advertisers buy tweets in bulk ~20,000+. You'll sell more tweets the more followers you have.
