Social Media Can Be Simple? Right?

If you are in a business, which I am assuming you are, otherwise you would not be reading this. You know without a shadow of doubt that you need to be on Social Media. You all have read the articles that you need to be on the at least the following : G+plus, Facebook, Youtube, Linked-In, Twitter, and the fairly new one called Pinterest.

What you might not realize is that even if you have a profile filled out and you started interacting with people that it could still take months before you develop relationships that will create a potential client for you or a potential income for you for all your effort in talking to people.

Talking to people is one, thing that is the start. What you have to do is engage. Engage in meaningful conversations, engage in deep discussions, engage at helping people find resources if they ask. Engage so that people know you care. No one cares about your product until they know you care about the first and foremost. You as a business person need to build that trust in such a way that when they are in the market for your product and services that first person that comes to mind is you.

What if you could have a short cut to this, would you take advantage of it? What if you had a way to learn all of this without going to a FREE -Webinar to learn some tid-bits about how to work social media and find out afterwards you have to pay a lot more to really get the training?

What if you could get University Level Training for Social Media for no price at all? Would you take advantage of it or would you ignore it?

A group of my business associates and friends are doing just that. The classes will be online for anyone who is serious about their business and want to survive and thrive in the next 5 years for no cost. What if I promised you that they would not only help you and anyone you know to do social media the "right way" but could also not sell you anything! Would you go and attend?

If I have "peaked your interest" please go to register for the  Free Social Media and Goal setting Webinar. make sure you use the special code 317 so you can get into these classes. This is invite only. I am inviting you since you took the time to read this blog post. Simple, right.

Ps, let's connect after and let me know what you think, I have seen a preview and I have been blown away. check out this video and let me know what you think in the comments. Please pass this on to someone you care about- your team, your employees, your family.

Yes , you can now be part of this awesome way to help people who need the help the most. With the issues of being unemployed and businesses not getting in the business like they did, this is a great way to reward and help people. It was just recently released and It is just a start of how a company can make a difference !

Imagine giving a person that you know $10.00 worth of advertising for their business. $10.00 that will give 1,000 unique visitors to your websites ( up to 3 websites allowed)! All these unique visitors will create more awareness to your business from search engines. 

I started this a while back, and to tell you the truth, I was very skeptical. The old site was just basic and I was not impressed but I kept checking back. Now today the site is very easy to navigate and many great features. I have been able to advertise for FREE. I have gotten some leads from this process and I am continually repurchasing from the commissions I earn.  With views to my site, people are interested in what I do. I earn by viewing 3 per day or view more up to 135 and each day that I can't login it gets subtracted daily-- so it counts that I am getting 3 / day.. I get to see new businesses that are out there and really enjoy learning more. 

The training is phenomenal. The training for the Elite Marketing is top notch and you will not get this for free from anyone except here. I enjoy being part of this movement- Check out their huge growth in just the last few months. This company is going through some growing pains, but once this is over, it will be the best thing I ever did for my business.

Is your name important to you?

+Preston Odenbrett

How many of you like your name, how many of you love your name? I am almost sure that most of you love your name because it is a name that has been with you all your life. Right? So then the next question is what about your business name?

If you love your business name and you want to bring your business to the "next level" please read on.

I just witnessed a demonstration by a good mentor to me J.J. Ulrich that talked about something that he has been creating in his mind for years. I am not sure if you are like him and me, but if you have been self-employed back in the 1990's you will follow this story. If you are not, I will get you caught up.

Back in the 90's when I was in the advertising business producing a coupon-advertising paper that went to the local community, I would have never dreamed that I would be a position today that can not only revolutionize my business but my clients as well.

I just witnessed a new way of doing business that "blew my mind" that I can't even go to sleep. Back to my story:

I started out with a notepad, pens and walked the street. I talked to every single business owner I could from dawn to dusk. I created relationships that I still have today because of my hard-work and my tenacity to never give up.

I have been through many industries and seen many tools that can help create efficiencies in my business. Now I know this will date me, but like I said for the younger crowd, I will catch up in a hurry.

Here is what I used to create my contacts, create business and to create a living for my family.

• Notepads/Pencils/pens
• Sticky pads
• Note cards
• Daily planner- ( Day-Timer, Franklin Planner)
• Spreadsheets- Excel, Word, Powerpoint
• Database- (Act and some others I can't even remember)
• Telephone - Dial
• Cell phone ( Huge)
• Smart-Phone
• Desk-top computer
• Laptop
• Database integrated software for Blackberry, Nokia, Android
•  Online systems like Sales Force/ Act Online  

Just to name a few tools - does this list look familiar? Why did I need all of these tools, because anytime you have job you need the right tools for the job. You have to invest in something and spend time teaching yourself or going to classes to learn all of it.

Well what if you could have all of this in one easy to use portal, What if you could create time for your self so you can spend time with your family- How about spending time with your wife instead of your computer or your kids instead of the smart phone.

Want your name to stand out amongst the crowd? If you do, watch this video and then pre-register by clicking on the graphic below before your competitor finds out about this. Oh, did I mention it is available for any budget.

Team Work and a great Feature with G+ and Blogger

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and New Years with your family and friends. My motto for 2013 is going to be "Be free in '13".

I was very busy in December and I did not have a chance to even do a post for this blog. What can I say, I was traveling a lot and the internet was a bit slow to be able to do this, I was with family most of the time and that was worth it. I know being in business- balance is key- but that is for another blog down the road.

However, with that said my goal is to do one of these blogs a week. I will talk about more tools that you can use using our new system from my team that is going to be released soon, I am creating new videos right now that I will share with you here on the blog.

Back to team work. I wanted to let you know my brother in law a few weeks back did a very fun exercise. He told all of us to go back to the room and each person stand on a tile. Note the tile is a regular size tile and each person would stand on it. He then said , everyone that is on a square, invite another person to your square and make sure you feet are within the square no part of people can touch or be outside of that square.

With 2 people in a square it is very tough, but then he went one step further. Everyone that is in a square with  2 invite another person in to your square. We now have 3 people in this square. Then he did this until we had 5 people in the little square. What does this have to do with team work? Well, try it, you have to rely on everyone in that square, you need to be close to each other, you need to hold each other accountable to make you don't fall off that square. You need to be creative in understanding how each of you works to hold everything together. You have to keep holding each other physically in order for all of you not to topple over.

Many people have asked me, how did some people get 5 people in the square, well what I didn't tell you is that some people had kids and guess where the kids went? The men put them on top of their shoulders, thus gaining more space in the square. So even the little ones can help your team more then you think. Don't ever eliminate people from your team because you don't think they will ever do anything, those are the ones that more then likely will help you in the future.

If you enjoyed this, please pass on to your colleagues, they will be very happy that you thought of them, especially if they want the perfect team in their business or organization.

What is the best source for your leads?

LEADS

Is that not what every business needs? In order to survive you need to constantly have prospects in a lead bucket. Where do you find the most leads right now? I just did an analysis of my social media postings and because I do spend my time on G+, Facebook, Linked in and some other forums. I tried to measure what is the most effective form of leads. Now that I am blogging or attempting to do weekly, I wonder if that will create more then my top social media sites?  I am also going to be creating a video series ( my new video camera arrives next week- Can't wait ) that will address ideas for business owners and tools that are free to use that you may not be aware of.

What I found in my analysis is that most of my leads are coming from a site called Empire Avenue. It is a game of sorts, where people invest in you, you invest in them and get to meet people from all over the world. You follow the top leaders and invest as much as you can in hopes that they will invest in you. When they do, WOW do they invest a lot. Probably cause they have extra virtual cash or E's to do so. Here is my latest mission I posted 1/2 hour ago, and only have 8 left out of 20 available. http://www.empireavenue.com/missions/view?id=113451

I have found that spending time here, gives me the best return on my time spent. According to what I have heard is that there is over 2,000 social media sites out there. I don't belong to that many but I do have my favorites. I also discovered a tool that I am totally excited about and I hope you are too. It will help me keep organized and keep all these tools into one location instead of in multiple windows and multiple programs that are running simutaneously.

Would like to know, what do you use, what have you found to be most effective and why, and look at this tool that will be released soon. It is free, no cost and it already has over 21 million people that have viewed it along with another site they own in just less then 10 weeks when they announced it in a webinar with 60 people attending. I don't know about you, but that is some fast growth in such as short time.

Check it out and let me know what you think- http://www.smashsolutions101.com - comments are most appreciated. Have a great Weekend.
