IMPACT OF A TWITTERSTORM

 The best Twitterstorm outcome is

a clear impact on changing narrative, raising awareness, or having a noticeable impact on a target. Use targeted #hashtag, links, and mentions of the targets. Helping sustain conversation on that issue over time can lead to the desired impact.
