Monetize social media the right way
Welcome back!
Learning how to monetize social media the right way is by far the cheapest way to make money online. But 99% of online marketers are doing it all wrong. Many just shove their affiliate links down people’s throats before really learning about the person. The biggest part of social media is to be SOCIAL and make new friends and there’s where mosts online marketers get it all wrong.
In a video by Perry Belcher he said think of social media as a party. When you are at a party you don’t go up to random people and directly shove your product down their throats do you? Of course not cause no one will talk to you at that party. People will lose interest to you quickly and run away from you. There’s a process with social media and you need to get to know them first and see if what you have (product) can meet their needs or the needs of their friends.

Facebook Fan or Group Pages which one??
With the explosion of facebook having more than 250 million active users and growing. More than half log on daily if you’re doing anything on the internet and are not on facebook my question to you is WHY ARE YOU NOT ON FACEBOOK??
Although a facebook profile is great is doesn’t give you much options as a marketer to market to your audience. That’s where facebook’s fan and group pages come in. But then the question lies in which one do I use?
Here’s a reference on the difference on Fan Pages and Group pages
Guest Blogger on johnchow.com talks about fan pages and group pages
Erin from zencartoptimization compares the two different pages.
Matthew Loop from shudogg gives you the 4 reasons to have a facebook fan page
In my opinion using both will work best to your advantage because there are things you can do to on a group page that you can’t do in a fan page and vice versa. At the end of the day it really is all about having a community/audience whether you use a facebook fan page or a facebook group page.
How to say optimistic in this pessimistic economy
How to say optimistic in this pessimistic economy!!
5 Things you can do right now to be more optimistic in this pessimistic economy
1. Stay away from news. All they talk about is all the negative things happening in our country. Especially CNN constanly negative news.
2. Continue reading personal development books every day. Read at least ten pages a day
3. Listen to a good personal development audio as well. Best time to listen is in your car. Brian Tracy calls your car a “university on wheels” so utilize that to the fullest. You’d be amazed at how much audio you can listen to because of the time spent in your car
4. Surround yourself with like minded individuals. Stay away from people who are constanly complaining about everything. Have a group of people who share the same passion and goals as yourself. Have a weekly mastermind group where you and your group just share thoughts ideas and goals with each other.
5. Always know that regard less of how bad the economy is you can always change your own personal economy. No person government or group can change your personal economy only you can.
These are the 5 that I can think of if you know of anymore feel free to add to this list.

Some of the benefits include:
