Your Social Networking Coach
Using new media like Facebook – Twitter – Linked In, can be a daunting task. The reality is that these things are as easy as Email to use but maximizing your results and the learning curve required can take hours and cause these great tools to be an enormous drain on your time and energy.
That is where a good Social Networking Coach can come in and walk you through this process step by step.
I know what you are thinking: “why should I let people on twitter know that I’m eating Oatmeal” Or “Hey, I just learned how to use this stupid email…now I have to do this too?” And you are right. But our opinions of these technologies are irrelevant. What are our clients or potential clients doing. Are they using this technology?If the answer is yes then we must adopt them too.
I personally think Twitter is stupid. I resisted it because I’m not a big fan of narcissism. But when I realized that my competitors were using this to promote themselves and their ideas I was forced into adopting it. Much like you are being forced into it. What I found though, is that Twitter is very powerful. The search engines regularly index the site. Which means your message gets promoted by Google, Yahoo, Bing and others with the click of ONE button.
There is another benefit. You become the expert that you say you are just by virtue of the content you post. If your an insurance agent. Then your frequent postings build you as the expert and the beauty of that you can share stuff you didn’t even write from other websites, saving you time….and time is money.
Facebook is similar but so much more interactive. You can connect with friends and clients and build a network of hundreds of people who share your interests and passions.
The Pitfalls: Many people think that these mediums exist for them to market themselves. But, What they don’t understand is that Facebook and Twitter are the new front porch. How would you feel if you were having a good time chatting with family and friends on your front porch a guy walked up with a flip chart and started selling you on the finer points of his new MLM? Upset. Angry. Insulted. Yet that is exactly what people are doing everyday on Facebook and Twitter. I call it overloading your social media influence and you can read about it here
