Ideally then Twitter limits the maximum number of followers, because what good the company had many followers and not speak to them, my project for example needed to talk to each follower individually, not to be in the same time could divide this into three or four days, but with the limit of Dm 250 per day, how to do this with a client who has 10,000 followers?
