All these two-screen sponsorships and promoted Tweets are designed to offer a win-win experience for all parties involved:
"Broadcasters reach new audiences and open up new business lines. Brand advertisers get, for the first time, an integrated cross-platform tool for reaching the social conversation wherever it happens."And users get relevant content from brands and broadcasters they love. Earlier this week, Twitter announced its new ad format, the Lead Generation Card.
