New twitter account, help needed!?

Well, it's still possible even if they are not following you. Just use the @ sign(in twitter it is called 'mention') followed by their twitter username. That way they will surely see your message. For example,if it is Lucy you want to talk to, you can type something like; hi @Lucy. Make sure there is no space between the @ sign and Lucy. This will make Lucy blue in colour to draw her attention.Unfortunately, it is impossible to send them a direct message if they are not following you. Hope this helps.
