What is the value of my twitter followers

What is the value of my Twitter followers?

I have a number of different Twitter accounts all run in slightly different ways with a total of about 8,000 followers across all the accounts. Once a quarter I sit and review my return on investment (ROI) I use a number of different applications such as, Hootsuite, Tweetdeck and Twitters own analytics Which I have talked about before Twitter Analytics
