How To Be Successful Marketing To The New Web 2.0 Or The Social Media Market

admin    Social Media     Market, Marketing, Media, Social, Successful

According to The Free Dictionary online the definition of success is as follows:1. the achievement of something attempted. 2. the attainment of wealth, fame, or position. 3. a person or thing that is successful.In order to achieve any of the above criteria marketing to the new Web 2.0 or in the social media arena as we know it today you, first of all, have to know your target audience and what makes them tick.

What drives them to spend so much time in the social media environment? What are they hoping to gain from these activities? What are their needs and wants? And most importantly; how do they feel about being targeted as a potential consumer in this situation? To achieve any level of success with the social media market each of these areas must be addressed in detail.

First of all, why do people spend so much of their free time on MySpace or Facebook? What is the lure or attraction of these social media sites? On some of the forums, such as MySun, people go so far as to say it’s an addiction. One female contributor is quoted as saying, “I was addicted to MySpace. I wanted to sit there 24/7. I’ve deleted it now, can’t be doing with it anymore, as for face book well I’m on there now but I think I’m gonna delete that too. It’s nuts.”

Another 26 year old female said, “I love Facebook, my sister got me hooked on it. Before then I didn’t see the fuss, but now I do. The more you do on it, the more you love it.” And yet another participant, a 34 year old male stated, “I use MySpace to keep in touch with everyone, not addicted though. Pop in once and awhile, and it’s helpful. Found friends from years ago.”

From each of those comments you see a common thread emerging. Two of the respondents mentioned “addiction” and one used the phrase “hooked on it”. All of these people constitute a potential target market, for Internet Marketers, no matter what their reasons for spending so much time socializing online. So it follows that in order to be successful marketing to this audience, the marketer too, must spend time online socializing with and gaining the trust of these potential clients.

In order to accomplish this you have to be transparent with these individuals. Whatever you do don’t try to deceive them by pretending to be someone you’re not just to gain favor with them. These people are there to make friends and establish relationships and that has to be the goal of the Internet Marketer as well. You have to respect their environment and their reasons for being there. If not you’re doomed to failure even before you begin.

Secondly what are their needs and wants? In order to determine this, the Internet Marketer must again establish relationships with these people in order to find out what their situation is and what they are looking for at the present time and in the future. If they aren’t looking for what you’re selling then at least you’ve made a friend online and maybe the next person will be in the market for your product or service.

Finally how do they feel about being targeted by Internet Marketers in their environment? Again in this situation the Internet Marketer must always keep in mind that these people are in what they consider to be their space, pardon the pun. You must respect their feelings and approach them as if you’re in their home. The Internet Marketer can be viewed as an outsider or an intruder if they’re too aggressive and lose sight of the fact that they are on their turf, so to speak.

Finally, along with being genuine in your approach, have fun with it. That’s what these sites are meant to be for the most part and if you’re having fun and being honest about your intentions then you can be very successful marketing to the social media audience online.

How To Market With Twitter The Right Way

admin    Twitter     Market, Right, Twitter

First here is a list of terms you will need to understand.

Tweet= a message posted on twitter.

Follower= someone who will see your tweet.

Following=someone whose tweet you will see.

ReTweet=when you resend somebody else’s post to your followers.

Twitter has exploded on the net and if used correctly can be a powerful tool in your marketing arsenal.

Day One

It all starts with your picture. A Photo of your face works great as long as it’s clear and well done. You want a quality picture that when enlarged looks good. A picture of your logo works too if you have one. Use your brand name whether it’s your name or your company name. This is how people will begin to recognize you.

You will want a customized background so when people go to your page to check you out it makes a good impression on them. You can do this yourself or outsource it. Just do a google search for “how to customize a twitter background”, or something like that.

Next step is to create your bio. Be classy and fun. Represent your self the way you want to be perceived but be honest. Put in your interests both personal and professional. Also add the name of the school you attended and any organizations you’re a part of.

This will create interest in people who have a similar background. If you’re into sports put that in your bio. Also add the industry of the company you are marketing i.e. Direct Sales or Network Marketing.

There is a twitter app you will want to use. It’s called http://socialoomph.com . This is an auto responder that will direct message people who follow you. Use it to send a greeting to your new followers. It will also automatically follow everyone who follows you.

Make your greeting something friendly and positive. Don’t add a link to your site in your greeting as that leaves a poor first impression. People will be more attracted to you if you are a real person and not just a marketer trying to get in their wallet.

Now you’re ready to start following people. In order to get targeted followers it is important to choose whom you follow wisely. Pick three people in your industry that are well known. For instance in the MLM and network marketing industry Mike Dillard is very well known.

What you want to do is follow the first five pages of people who are following them. Go to the twitter homepage of the person you chose and click on followers. This will bring up a list of their followers. Just go down the list and follow everyone. When you get to the bottom of the page click next.

Do only three people and five pages from each of them. The reason you don’t want to do more than that is if twitter thinks you are being too aggressive in following people they will shut down your account. Follow the three people and five pages rule and you will be fine.

That is the end of tasks for day one. You will find that some of the people you followed will follow you back. Some won’t. Also some people you didn’t follow will follow you. At this point you will need to start doing daily maintenance on your account.

Day Two

Twitter is about building relationships through conversation. When you make a tweet only people following you will see your tweet. You will only see the tweets of people you are following. Therefore you want to be both followed by and following everyone on your list.

Twitter has a new policy that disallows mass un-following. So you will need to do this operation manually. There is a website called http://friendorfollow.com/ Go to that website and enter your twitter user name on the front page. Click on the following link and a list of all of the people you follow that do not follow you back will come up. Click on the pictures individually and you will be brought to that users twitter page. Click on the “gear” icon and choose un-follow.

When you have gone through the entire list go back to your twitter homepage and click on the “followers” link. This will bring up a list of people following you. Go through and follow everybody you are not already following. There will be a follow button for people you haven’t followed yet. Click it.

After you have finished this your “following” and “follower” numbers should be pretty close. Don’t worry if they are not exactly the same.

There are a couple of reasons why you want to do this. First is because you want to have a two-way conversation with people not a one-way conversation. Second is because of the 2001 barrier.

The 2001 barrier is a twitter rule. Your following to follower numbers needs to be within 10% of each other or you can’t follow more than 2001 people.

If you are following 2001 people and you are not being followed by at least 1800 people you will not be allowed to follow any others. So un-follow anyone who isn’t following you.

Once you have finished with this start looking at the tweets of people you are following. When you see something interesting to you go check out the bio of that person. If they mention your industry or if they have some of the same interests as you in their bio they may be a good prospect.

Just like on day one you will pick three people this way and follow five pages of their followers.

Repeat this process daily.

Now that you have started building your following you will want to start building relationships. Read the tweets and respond to any that you find interesting. Also direct message people if you like something about what they are saying and tell them. People love to be complemented and included.

Retweet any posts you find interesting or valuable. People love the recognition and will reciprocate by Re-Tweeting your posts.

Here are some guidelines for your tweets. Be personal. Talk about what you are doing. Tweet things you find funny. Post inspirational or motivational quotes. Don’t spam! Nobody likes it. Refrain from posting your marketing links until you have started to develop some relationships.

You will generate more interest in what you have to offer if people perceive you as real and someone they can trust. Build relationships before you start hitting them with your opportunity. A good guideline is to post 80% personal/ valuable content and 20% marketing.

Another good trick is to send people to your blog, and to connect with them on Facebook. This will give them an opportunity to get to know you better. People join people not companies.

If done correctly twitter can bring a steady stream of high quality leads into your sales funnel.

How to market on Facebook instead of Selling?

admin    Facebook     Facebook, instead, Market, selling

Facebook is far by nunn the most phenomenal networking platform and according to Alexa it out ranked Youtube & Yahoo in September 2009 sitting right behind Google. People all over the universe are connecting on Facebook to meet and socialize with people. If you are among the smart marketers and you are not on Facebook or using it effectively you are missing out on a Goldmine rush.

In this article you will learn how you can really use facebook and build lasting relationships.If you did not know by now Facebook and other social websites are there to build relationships and not to pitch, or sell your business.

Facebook is a social networking site and you just that (socialize). People don’t want to be bothered with business offers, your . It can be annoying when people first connect with you and the first thing that they do is send their business opportunity. (if you pitching! selling! Stop Now!)

Your primary goal on Facebook is to really connect with people and to genuinely help them out. Its fine to send out marketing messages, just make sure what you are sharing is beneficial to your friends, and stop pitching your business. ADD VALUE! This way People will magnetically be drawn to you and wanting to look at your business offers on their own.

Facebook is one of my marketing strategies and I use it to share blog post, video, with my friends. As you know content is King and this is something that every Network Marketers should really examine and implement.

Another way I use Facebook is when requesting friends would I send them a personal message introducing myself which in my opinion, it eliminates the questions; Who are you? Where do I know you from? By doing this additional step I see an increase in friend acceptance rate and people will want to connect. This will make me stand out and they would know me on a personal note.

I really don’t know why people fail to understand this basic principle and start to implement them it can be very annoying when you meet someone and the first they do is to spam you with their business link.

Using Twitter.Com To Market Your Music And Attract More Sales & Fans

admin    Twitter     Attract, Fans, Market, more, Music, Sales, Twitter.Com, Using

In this article, I’m going to share with you a very popular
Social Networking site called Twitter.com that you can literally
spend just about 5-10 minute a day on and be able to attract a
very good amount of high quality traffic in the form of fans and
music buyers back to your website or myspace page. And its really fun.

Before we begin, I want to let you know that very few people are
using this method of attracting new fans and attention to their music, why?
Simply because they either A- Don’t know or B- Are to lazy

In fact, if you take the steps that I give you below and apply them
you’ll be way ahead of everyone else.

Are you ready? Great, then lets begin!

Things You’ll Need to successfully use twitter:

* Computer
* Internet / mobile
* Few seconds of time

Step 1 – SMM (social media marketing) is the latest online
marketing trend to hit the music industry because its an highly
profitable and easy way to build brand recognition for you the
artist.

It’s a also a great way to get new fans to your website, blog or
Myspace page through social media like facebook, myspace, flickr,
youtube, digg and the like.

Social media sites are web sites where news, photos, videos and pod
casts are hosted through user submission. If you’ve ever thought that
marketing your music through social media is time consuming,
Twitter is an exception

Step 2 – The reason why I really like Twitter is because it is
a lot easier and simpler social networking and
micro-blogging service. All you will need to do is answer the
question, ‘what are you doing?’ in less than 140 characters. These
short messages are called “tweets”. Your tweets are immediately
displayed on the your profile page and instantly delivered to other
users who are following you (i.e. your fans.)

So for instance, some of your tweets may look like
“I’m in the studio recording a new song for the next CD”
“I’m sitting at the park writing a new song”
“I’m at the SWSX music conference”

So do you see how this works? Pretty easy right?

So how do you start Tweeting?

Step 3 – Sign up for a free twitter account. The most important
thing that you want to remember is to use you Artist name, Business
Name
or Real Name rather than some abstract alphanumeric
combination. This will help build credibility.

The next step is to change a few things in your profile,
immediately. Include keywords about your music and genre, interests
and whatever you want to use twitter for. You can restrict your tweet
delivery to those in your circle, but I suggest leaving the
Default setting in place, which is “delivery to everyone”.

Step 4 – Click ‘find and follow’ to follow people from your aol,
yahoo gmail and other email contacts who are already tweeting. You can
also find people with similar interests by searching for a keyword
according to your Genre or interest (i.e. Jaxx Music, Hip Hop,
Country). Click follow, if you find any interesting.

By the way, My twitter name is TyCohen

Step 5 – Now you are all set to send your first tweet. Type a small
message (max 140 characters including spaces) telling people what
you are doing. You can send tweets through twitter website or
instant messenger or SMS from your cell-phone. You need to confirm
your cell phone number first. Do this by clicking devices.

If you think it doesn’t make any sense and is sheer waste of time,
then you are under estimating twitter potential.

Step 6 – Twitter allows you to add links in the tweets which is a
huge marketing benefit to you. You can use
this to display your own links. For ex: one of my tweets today was
“Using MySpace to Make Your CD Sales Soar!

Step 7 – By tweeting frequently, following and being followed, you
can grow a small community of people with similar interests and who
recognize your name and your brand!

Step 8 – I downloaded a great time saver Twhirl. It is a third
party application for twitter. If tweeting takes around 60 seconds,
Twhirl cuts down that time to below 10 seconds.

Twhirl stays on the desktop (logged in). I don’t need to visit the
twitter website during my hectic workday. All I do is, click the twhirl
icon from the system tray and type a short “whatever I’m doing”
tweet and send. Twhirl also notifies when I receive messages from
my followers or anyone that I’m following. So I don’t miss a thing and
all without wasting my time.

You can also use twhirl to upload pictures to twitpic.com, a site
to share photos.

There are many applications for twitter like twitterfeed (similar
to twhirl), twittervision, which shows the geo position of the your
twitter friends and so on.

So there you go! A quick and easy way to expand your marketing to
millions of people all for free.

Happy Tweeting.

Your Music Business Coach!

Using Facebook And Twitter To Market Your Ebook And Online Business

admin    Facebook     business, Ebook, Facebook, Market, Online, Twitter, Using

Social networking has made the process of marketing your eBook much easier. By having a presence on Facebook and Twitter you can position yourself as an expert in your field in a very short time. Even while you are still writing your eBook, get started on these two social media sites and become the go-to person in your niche.

Facebook now has more than one hundred million members, so the best way to let people know about you and your eBook is to start your own group. You can use the title of your eBook as the title of the group you create, provided it is filled with your keywords.

You can invite your Facebook friends to join your group, but people will also be able to find your group by typing your keywords into Google or any other search engine. For example, if you type ebook writing and technology into Google, my Facebook group is number one. How cool is that?

You will also want to create a page on Facebook with the name of the eBook as the title. A page is separate from your profile in that it is specifically about your business or your product, which in this case is your eBook.

This page will also rank high in the search engines, but that is not the only way it will help people to find you and your eBook. When you create a page you can also import your blog’s RSS feed into the page. This means that every time you make a post to your blog it will automatically be syndicated into Facebook. Even though you can do this in other areas of Facebook, being able to import your blog, where you are writing about your niche topic, will give your eBook even more exposure.

My strong recommendation is that you purchase a domain name that is the same as the name of your eBook, and then forward that domain to your page on Facebook. Your blog’s domain name can be something very similar, or it can be exactly the same with a different extension. For example, your blog may end with dot come, whereas your Facebook page may end with dot net. This is a great way to take full advantage of your keywords, while branding your name and your niche at the same time.

Twitter is the other major player in the social networking arena. You can set up your account to automatically tweet your blog posts at certain times each day. When you write about your eBook in one of your blog posts, anyone who is following you on Twitter will see what you have written.

Even though you are limited to 140 characters with each tweet, you can shorten your links by using a site such as tinyurl or bitly. This enables you to provide great information about your eBook in the space you are allowed. You may also want to give out a sample chapter to your Twitter followers so that they can see if this is something they will be interested in purchasing. I recommend doing this while you are still writing, so that you will already have prospects when you are ready to make sales.

The combination of Facebook, Twitter, and your blog will give you the online presence you need in order to sell your eBook and become known to your target audience. By seeing your name in so many places, you will be able to attract new prospects and clients on a regular basis.

By getting involved in social networking right now, you will be able to position yourself as the expert in your niche. People will know who you are and associate you with your topic. There has never been a better time to be online than right now, and social networking speeds up the process of building your list and gaining the credibility and visibility necessary to sell your eBook and building your online empire.
