Social Media Program - Don’t Miss Out

June 22, 2008

Join us Starting Monday June 23rd

*** What Exactly Will You Learn? ***

This is a huge topic. But after giving it a lot of thought I realized there are several most important things you need to know.

1) You need to have a central place to connect all your social networking activities too. The best way to do it is to have a blog. So the first call will be all about BUSINESS blogging. 

2) You need to master at least a couple of social networking sites and harness their power to build profitable relationships.  I chose Facebook and Twitter (but we’ll mention other websites as well)  So calls #2 and #3 will be about strategies for using those two sites to attract more clients and build your business.

3) Doing it all effectively. If you aren’t careful,   Social Media Networking can overwhelm you very quickly! Let’s not let it happen to you!

And the call #4 will give you the exact strategies and the tools you need to manage all your daily social network activities with only a few keyboard strokes in a few minutes per day.

These calls are free to listen to. And if want to get the  MP3 recordings, and complete transcripts of each call, you can request them (for a small fee) once you register.

*** Social Networking Sites Facts that Will Shock You **

I actually suggest you print out this article for future reference

(facts and stats provided by Adam Urbanski, The Marketing Mentors) 

You are about to discover shocking stats about the world’s sixth most popular website and how you can use it to attract new clients and grow your business…  With only a few minutes of attention each day,  you can use this new media to…

 => grow your list of newsletter subscribers,

=> find and connect with new strategic partners,

=> generate direct sales of your products and services! .

And there is more…

 *** Look WHO Is Already “Playing” Here ***

 Here are some of them: 

==> Seth Godin (yes, the guy who wrote “Purple Cow”, ”Permission Marketing”, “Unleashing the Ideavirus”  and too many other books to list here) 

==> Dr. Joe Vitale (yes, the start of the movie “Secret” and author of dozens of books!) 

==> Joe Sugarman (the guy behind the multi-million dollar success of BlueBlocker sunglasses) 

==> Malcolm Gladwell (author of “Blink” and “The Tipping Point”)

 ==> Mark Victor Hansen (creator of the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” book series)

 ==> Jack Canfield (co-creator of “Chicken Soup…”, “The Success Principles” and many others!)

I could go on and on… But I think you get the point!

*** You Can “Tweet” Your Way to More Clients. Really! ***

 If multi-millionaires, world-class consultants and coaches, and even huge companies, like Southwest Airlines, Comcast Communication, and Box.net “stoop” to the level of having a Twitter account - well, I thought I better get one too!

 *** Just Look at These Numbers ***

 Adam did a lot of homework and he found shocking data about LinkedIn, Myspace, Facebook, and other such sites.

It would take too long to list it all here, so I’ll just share a few details about Facebook for now. 

–> It’s the 6th most popular website in the world! 

–> It has over 60 million active users!

 –> 250,000 new people join Facebook EVERY day! 

–> It gets more than 65 BILLION page views per month!

 –> 56% are 25 years old and older 

–> Over 55% of members are WOMEN!

 –> 35% of members earn more than $60,000 per year 

–> 23% make over $100,000 per year

Again, do I need to continue? Still think this is just a fad. Still think you can afford to ignore this media? 

Think again!

 *** What Are The Reasons You Should Get Involved? ***

For one, whether you are participating or not, your current (and potential) customers are talking about you online right now!

If you’re not a part of this conversation, you have no idea if what they say is good or bad! 

You also miss out on important data about exactly what your customers are shopping for and how they make buying decisions. Don’t you think it’s invaluable to find out those things?

 Also, if you’re not involved, you’re missing out on an amazingly easy opportunity to increase your search engine rankings and grab a ton of targeted, free traffic coming to your site when you grow your “social footprint.”

But, if you go about it the wrong way, you will likely end up wasting a lot of your time at best.  It might even cost you your reputation if you make mistakes that - unfortunately - can’t be erased!

 *** So How Do You Take Advantage of This? ***

 I admit once again - only a few weeks ago I was totally ignorant about all of this. 

But once I realized how powerful social media sites and online networking are, and how quickly you can leverage them to grow your business, I want to tell you all I’ve learned. And even things I don’t know yet!

That’s why I invited four world’s leading Social Media and Networking experts to be my guests on a series of four calls I’m hosting next week.

 These are no lightweights! They are frequently mentioned in prominent business media - like Wall Street Journal, Entrepreneur Magazine, Fast Company, and too many TV and radio stations to even start listing.

They preach what they practice - not practice what they preach (big difference!) And they all agreed to answer as many questions as we can fit in a 70-minute call - and without wasting your time on sales pitches!

These calls are free to listen to. And if want to get the MP3 recordings, and complete transcripts of each call, you can request them (for a small fee) once you register.
