Man…I had fun with Part 1 of the “Things You’re Doing On Facebook That Are Killing Your Business.”

I got up on my soapbox a little bit, but I also think it was a productive soapbox to be on.

I really hope that people take these tips to heart and mind, because as the title states, you can really kill your business if you don’t pick up your game and follow some really stupid simple rules.


Looking Back

Looking back at the comments I got in Part 1, “Not Replying to Messages or Comments” seemed to be a common point that a lot of people felt the same about, and admittedly, many also said they were slacking on and letting slip in their own Facebook marketing strategies.

I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that we all get busy and we let answering messages and replying to comments slip to the back burner.

But as you know, this is the part of your FB profile that is absolutely necessary to build your brand and your relationship with potential leads.

I can’t emphasize that enough!


Onto The List for Part 2

(Click Here if you missed Part 1)


5. Facebook Games

LOL…I really don’t know what to say here other than these games are crap!

Farmville, Fishworld, Yoville, etc., etc.

If you want to be productive and build your business online, who in the world is going to take you serious if you’re asking someone to come and help you harvest your corn field?

Or those damn snowball fights that always show up in the winter time.

I swear, if I get “hit’ with a snowball this winter I’m deleting you from my account.

Seriously though…these are such suckers of your precious time.  Why are you focusing on how big your building your “virtual farm” instead of building your business to buy your own acreage out in the country to build your dream house?


6.  Tagging

Now, I wavered back and fourth on this one because I occasionally use tagging myself, but you need to use it wisely.

If you are tagging people in a video because you want to have them watch your business opportunity presentation video, well, good luck!

Or if you tag people in a note or update that they have NO part of and are in no way related to it, you might want to reconsider your game.

BUT…

If you create a post referring to a friend that wrote a blog post, or created an awesome video, that’s cool!  Way cool actually!  Tag away!

“Hey, check out this cool new post my friend, Yo Le,  just posted on his blog.  It’s about the 3 Reasons you should join a tribe.”  And then I would simply tag Yo in the note.

Or if you’re in a group pic from a live event, and you’re friends with others in the pic, feel free to tag them as well.  It shows a relationship and helps to brand you with them.

As a general rule, if you have friends in your Facebook network that are included in the video, picture, note, etc, feel free to tag them.

One more spot to use this is in a welcome video.

If you have a short 20 second welcome video where you welcome your new Facebook friends, feel free to tag them in that too.


7.  Facebook Groups

Facebook groups are a WISE marketing strategy to use within Facebook.

It’s a little like a Fanpage, but really not.

And in reality, a Facebook group is really another list to utilize like your auto-responder list.

With a Facebook group, you can blast one message out to your entire group with the press of a button.

You can also create “events” within your group and invite people to them from your group.

I personally use my group to provide blog and article marketing tips and strategies to my members, and help drive traffic to my blog my sending a message with a link to the blog post.

But, groups can easily be abused.

If you invite me to a group you created, it better live up to the purpose that you created if for and stated within the description of the group.

If you invite me to a group that talks about blog marketing, you better not use it to slam me with a business opportunity or product pitch.


I’ve Rambled Long Enough

There are plenty more issues to bring up that you may or may not be doing on Facebook that is killing your business.

But, I’m keeping these next two ideas for a later date because they are big enough that I’m going to create a specific post for each one.

But, I promise you that it will simplify your time on Facebook and help you to drive more traffic to your blog and websites.

Until then, I’m going to direct you back up to the top of the page and click the green Retweet and blue Facebook share button.  It’s a simple automated click that will take you about 5 seconds for each one.  Thank You ahead of time!


Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,

As I sit here writing this post about the things you’re doing on Facebook that are killing your business, I realized that I’d probably never really itemize a complete list.

It would be an unending task.

There are so many different things that a majority of people do on a daily or even hourly basis that are killing their image, brand, and therefore their business.

Some of them, they probably don’t even know you’re doing.

It’s just something that comes so natural to you, you just think it’s o.k. to do, so you keep doing it.

And no one’s taken the time to tell you it’s killing your image and brand.

That is…until now (wink, wink).

You know that Facebook is awesome!

And even though you can use it to market business opportunities, you have to do it very passively and rarely.

Facebook is about ongoing updates, recognition, networking, establishing trust, and most
importantly… BONDING.

Your #1 goal is for people to LIKE YOU.


1.  First Impressions

Think about it, when you first meet someone, what’s the first thing they see?

Your face right?

So if you’re on FACEbook, why are you hiding behind a company logo or cartoon character on your profile?

Do you really think someone is going to take you seriously with a picture of Tweetybird or Pac-man as a profile picture?

Might I suggest that you add an actual picture of you for your profile pic?

It doesn’t have to be a professional pic.  Just be natural and be you.


2.  Pitching People on Their Profile

This one really gets me – for a  few reasons.

There’s 2 parts to this:  1. When you first network with someone, and 2. After you’ve already networked with someone for an extended period of time.

It states “Amateur” and reeks of unprofessionalism.

If I get those messages on my profile, I warn the friend that I will not accept that activity on my profile, and if it happens again I will delete their profile from my list.  (fyi, I’ve only had to do this once so far…)

Perry Belcher put it best when he stated that people need to treat social networking like a dinner party.  When you go up to meet someone for the first time at a dinner party do you say, “Hi, My name’s Jeff, and I work for “MLM company X”, do you want to join me in my business?”

Hell no!

You simply build that relationship and get to know the person.  If you build that relationship with them, you gain their trust and respect.

So why aren’t you trying this in Facebook?

Instead try something witty or off the wall like, “Hey Cindy, glad to connect with ya here on Facebook.  Let me buy you a coffee!  Wait, no that only works in person.  Dang…let me check my notes on what to say here.”

I guarantee that will get you better responses than “Hi Cindy, glad to connect with you here on Facebook.  I’m looking forward to getting to know you.” blah blah blah…

Stand out from the crowd!


3.  Pitching Me on A Friend Invite

This is WORSE than #2.

If I get a friend request with a message in it pitching me on a business opp., I automatically decline that friendship.

If more people start doing that, I’m willing to bet that we start to see that activity cease.

Instead, leave a message saying, “Brian, simply wanted to connect with you here on FB ’cause you look awesome in your profile pic – meaning you seem like a real person.  Lets connect and see where this goes.”

Again, this will elicit a response.


4.  Not Replying to Messages or Comments

This is just dropping the ball and missing out on potential money.

And I’ll admit, I’m guilty of from time to time. But, I’m trying to do better.

See, when you look at Facebook, it’s all about networking.

So when you post a blog feed on your profile, and someone takes the time to comment on it, their network sees it.

When they go to see the full commentary, they’re expecting to see you involved in the commentary.

The more you’re involved and trusted for the content you’re producing, or replying to comments that people see on your profile, the more you’re trusted.

In a way, it’s like giving you a referral to their friend network, which means more eyes on you.

The same thing can be said of replying to messages.  Granted, their one on one.  But it’s still letting people know that you’re real.


My Brain Moved Too Fast

Apparently, I have  a  little to say on this topic, with some good ideas to help change the bad habits around.

So if you liked the “Things You’re Doing On Facebook That Are Killing Your Business – Part 1″, stay tuned for the next post on Part 2 where I break down some more ideas to help improve your Facebook strategies.

One thing you can do for me now is hit the little green “Retweet” and blue “Facebook Share” button at the top of this post.

Let your friends also know some things that might also be killing their business.  They’ll thank you for it in the long run!


Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,

Last week I added a pop-over form to my blog site that is getting great results right now (7% conversion in a little under a week).

Since I added it, I’ve had people asking me how I got it on my site and if I paid for it to be custom made.

It’s an easy answer and it’s free!

Here’s a quick training video on how I did it so that you can add it to your blog in about 10 minutes as well.

Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,






P.S. – Be sure to Click the Facebook Share and Retweet Buttons at the top of the post to help you spread some social networking, and me to get more eyes on this valuable training!

When I started blogging, after I wrote a blog post I started getting these things called “Pingbacks.”

I remember thinking to myself, “what are pingbacks and what am I supposed to do with them?

(No, it’s not Sean Connery in “The Hunt For The Red October” saying “One ping, and one ping only!”)

So I kind of blew them off for a while.

Then I started promoting my blog posts into articles using the Unique Article Writer, and within hours of articles being submitted, I started getting pingbacks like crazy.

So I took it as a sign to start digging deeper to define a pingback for myself and my team.


What’s A Pingback?

I’m going to use an example of my blog and article writing.

I post something on my blog and submit it to the article sites.

The article site accepts my article that links to my blog post.  This automatically sends a pingback to my blog when both have pingback enabled sites.

My blog receives the pingback, then automatically goes to the article site to confirm that the pingback did come from my site.


So What Do you Do With Them?

After starting to receive this massive flow of pingbacks, I had to take a look at what to do with them.

So I posted this question to the source I typically go to when I have these sorts of questions: Better Networker forums.

In fact, here is the direct link to the forum post that I created:  What Do You Do With Pingbacks?

I’ll let you read  the information that I found inside of the forum post itself, but I will high-lite the most important part here.


This Is Why I Go To Better Networker When I Have A Question

Thanks to Kurt Henninger I was able to find my answer.  So make sure to drop by his site and give him some love as well.  This guy knows his SEO strategies!

Because of Kurt, I have been implementing a New 5-step strategy for dealing with pingbacks and working to get them indexed in the search engines for the last few weeks.

When you receive a Pingback from an article site or any other blog, simply take the web address of that specific article site and run it through these following steps:

1. Pingomatic – It’s part of the WordPress family.  All you do is submit the web address of the specific article you submitted and put it in the site, and click “Submit to Sites.”  It will submit that URL to 21 different services notifying them of your new posted article.

2. Digg, Delicious, Reddit, Mister Wong – Social Bookmarking sites.  We all know the power of these sites.

3. Ice Rocket – This is a free RSS builder.  What it does is set up an RSS feed specific to your article.

4. Traffic Mania RSS Bot – Take the RSS feed from Ice Rocket and submit it to this program.  It will submit the RSS feed you just created in Ice Rocket to the many different RSS directories.  There is a $19.95 per month membership for this.  It is a powerful tool if your are going to use this strategy, so judge if you’re going to use the tool (and yes, this is my affiliate link),

5. Google Blog Search – Simply submit that same RSS feed from Ice Rocket to Google Blog Search.


Honestly, That’s It

Really, there is nothing more to it.

Now you simply let the webcrawlers do their work and start indexing your articles that contain backlinks to your blog posts!

Can you say SEO power?


Well, There Is One More Thing…

Since I know that you found something unique and useful in this post and will likely help out others in trying to figure out what to do with their pingbacks, there are two little boxes at the top of this post – the Facebook Share and TweetME button.  Make sure to take 7 seconds and click each one for me.  I thank you in advance!


Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,

“Bro - That’s Not How You Get More Blog Subscribers!”

Gotta Love a Loyal Following.

It was less than 24 hours since I posted Part 1 of the “10 Surefire Ways To Attract More Blog Subscribers” and you guys were clamoring for Part 2.

I apologize, but yesterday I posted our webinar link and registration for tonights Personal Mastermind webinar where you can come in, crack open our heads, and ask me or anyone of my 3 fellow Mastermind members any MLM Training question that you want.

I wanted to build the suspense for today post on Part 2 of the 10 Surefire Ways To Attract More Blog Subscribers.

So here you are, the remainder of the Top 10:


6. Become a Guest Blogger

Providing content to somebody else’s blog may sound a bit funny, but it is a creative plan to get exposure for your own blog and build your subscriber base.  Just make it clear to the blog owner that you require an brief section at the end of the post, with a backlink to your blog site.

Offer this back to the blog owner to guest post on your site as well.


7. Start A Podcast

Now this is a road I have never gone down, but it certainly a step in the future.

Start a related podcast on your material, and get it into iTunes and listed in the varied podcasting directories.

Mention your blog in each episode and the advantages of subscribing, and try and land some interviews with prominent players in your niche. Not merely will you be opening up a new promotional channel, you’re also making bonus content that may be reused as a part of your moral bribe campaign for new customers.

This would be an entirely new marketing strategy altogether.


8. Post in forums

A proven method since the first days of the web is to be a helpful and pro-active player in forums that are significant in your niche.  Folks will spot that you’re offering yourself up to others, and will likely be more inclined to see what else you’ve got to offer with your blog.


9. Networking

This is may be the most forgotten method for gaining traffic and customers. Don’t badger other blog owners for links, as it hardly ever works any more.  Discover a way to help them with something, and then eventually work that first graciousness into a business relationship and even fellowship.  There are real folk behind these blogs, and they reply to good will just like people do offline.


10. Cross-promotional deals

Here’s another cool way to use the Feedvertising plugin for WordPress.

Find a blogger that publishes related, but non-competitive content. Work out a deal where you both promote one another in your RSS feeds, using Feedvertising.

If one blog has more subscribers than the other, work out a deal that is fair for each blog. Since the Feedvertising plugin lets you create up to 6 revolving links, the smaller blog would push the larger blog steadily, while the bigger blog would reserve one slot for the smaller blog, and use the other slots for other cross-promotion deals.


So There You Have It…

Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,





P.S. – Are you thinking: “Linus I loved Part 1 of this post, and I know I said it is the COOLEST blog post EVER! But I’m retracting that statement.  THIS POST is the coolest ever.  I’m going to “Facebook Share” it for my Facebook friends by clicking the little Blue “Share” button on the top of this post right now.”

There’s A Question That Keeps Popping Up.

“How can I attract more blog subscribers?”

Personally, I look at subscribers on the same level as pages-views or traffic.  Subscribers are the life blood of a successful blog, and I really wish that I had more of them.

So I hunted for ideas on how to start attracting more blog subscribers right away.

Here Is What I Found:


1. Make It Easy & Plain

As I have mentioned before in more detail, make your subscription options noticable, provide an e-mail alternative to RSS, and ask for the subscriptions.


2. Be Focused

Make certain you are targeting a specific niche, and the more specialized your subject matter, the better you will do. It’s key to step back and take a look at if there are sufficient readers in your niche. Is it better to discover now or six months down the road?


3. Provide a Bribe

Here’s a fun an sneaky one that I found recently. Now relax, it’s nothing illegal.

Here is a cool way to do it with RSS : If you’ve got a WordPress blog, use the free Feedvertising plugin to link to the download page for your free present. Since Feedvertising links only show up in the feed (and not in the post), only feed customers will see the link and have accessibility to the bonus.


4. Use Viral Ebooks

This is a spin on the #3.  Simply partner with your friends to let others GIVE AWAY your PDF E-book or maybe bundle it for sale with other products on their site. The PDF in turn promotes your blog, and you get free traffic in the return.


5. Dedicated Subscription Landing-pages

Create a page that’s sole purpose is getting a subscription, and push traffic to it from your blog, articles, forums, or actually any other source you would like. You may also forward it to a dedicated URL, and add in the moral bribe methodology  from #3 above to extend subscriptions.


One Last Thing

All that I mentioned above assumes that you are writing great content and providing value to your readers.  If you truthfully can’t say you’re doing your best work content-wise, start with that first.  But after you get that down, using some or all the above will certainly raise your customer count!


Remember…

These are only the first part of my Top 10 Surefire Ways To Attract More Blog Subscribers to your Blog.

In the Coming days I want you to keep a look out for Part 2 which is going to be sure to add more value not only to you, but for your readers as well.

Blogging and content marketing is a “person” oriented strategy.  Meaning that if you aren’t writing for people and focusing SOLELY on SEO for the search engines, then you are missing the boat my friend.

Living, breathing humans are what helps to provide linking, viral spread of content, feedback, and of course networking.  To miss that part of the equation will do you harm in the long run.

The State of Article Marketing

Traditional article marketing has become much tougher and far less efficient than it used to be because of the Duplicate Content filtering employed by Google and other search websites.

Here we are going to look at how quality article spinning offers a way around this problem, explain how it’s done and take a look at a new article spinner that may scale back your spinning time from an hour or even more to only a few minutes!

Content spinners first came to my attention about a year ago thanks to David Wood and his article marketing campaigns. But when you start to look, there are many to actually use.

Content, or content spinning, involves taking an original article and using it to generate 10′s or masses of new unique versions of the text.

Each one of these new articles presents the same concepts and ideas as the first, but voiced in alternative ways. The idea is that they all make sense and are grammatically correct, and so unique.


Does that sound like a funny idea to you?  Pointless perhaps?

Sadly you’d be wrong on both counts. The reality is that these days article spinning is required.

The rationale is the duplicate content penalty. And you are decidedly mistaken if you think it’s a myth.


Article Spinning To The Rescue

Using a content spinner, it’s simple to create different versions of your articles for publishing on other sites, so it’s never the same as the version you have on yours.

And when you’re submitting to article directories, you may use different versions for each directory, which should increase the quantity of probabilities your article has of appearing in the search results.


A Time Saving Article Spinner

When I started, I forked out cash for my content spinner software when I needed to start spinning content. But the issue is that you had to manually go through and spin your complete article from start to finish.

Talk about laborious.

I’d spend 45 minutes to an hour or more spinning each article.

I really loathed having to spin each article, as it took so long, though it was a unavoidable evil to get the results I wanted.

Then I was introduced recently to a program that automatically spins the articles for you, with a bigger unique quality.

The articles I spun manually were typically a uniqueness of 20-30%, which was fine for Google, but when I used this auto-spinner, it essentially did a more satisfactory job at a 50-60% uniqueness on the 1st 2 articles I attempted.

To me, it was a no brainer.

Auto-spin the articles, and then submit the spun versions using the article submission program I use.

You will be creating hundreds of backlinks, but in the gradual and varied way that search engines reward you for.

The headstart you’ve got will make it very hard for others to catch up later . You’ll have more traffic generating articles and focused backlinks out there than the competition, which they can’t add overnight without being penalized by search engines like Google.


Want To See The Auto-spinner For Yourself?

If you are intimidated about getting into article marketing because you see that there is a lot of work, think again.

Watch the quick 7-minute training video above and you will never view article marketing and article spinning the same way again.

Are you tired of spending hours spinning your articles before you submit them through the different article submission programs?

I know that I was…until Jim Chao showed me this “Sick” little tool here

www.LinusRuzicka.com/contentboss/spinner

Instead of spending hours spinning my articles, I have now cut it down to 2 minutes or less.

In fact, it took me longer to film my tutorial video above than it did to spin the article.

Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,

When I got started in content marketing, I often struggled to look for ideas and content.

I needed a source to help find topics and ideas of what to write about and of course how to write.

While there are MANY different sources to find content out there, I’m specifically talking about one of my leading sources today.

This site is ALSO one of my secret sites that I use to drive a lot of traffic to my blog – and because of the quality of the site, it’s quality traffic.


Let Me Divulge…

For those of you that already know Better Networker, you know what I’m talking about.

Mike Dillard took his old social network and converted it into BetterNetworker.com in 2008.

And every since then, it has grown into a primary resource for true content for other network marketers because of other quality network marketers.

But it’s really much more than just that.


Have You Visited Lately?

Earlier this year Better Networker became a paid membership site – all with the focus of providing better quality for its readers and fellow members.

Now, don‘t freak out, you can still read and access the quality posted content within the site for no cost – that’s kind of a no brainer.

The depth of knowledge in the forums and articles is un-surpassed.

Further, you can always participate in the forums and interact by providing your own content – including back links to your blog posts in the forums.


Here is One of My Tricks

When I leave a piece of content to get some attention within the forums, all I do is leave a little snippet about your blog post and how it will benefit the excellent readers of the Better Networker forums.

Providing a backlink on Better Networker.com is smart because Google loves their site. They have a very high Google page ranking, and also a great ranking in Alexa.

(Pardon me for not having the direct number, I’m in the middle of a cross country flight, what do you want from me?)

But the idea is that if a high ranking site like Better Networker has you link on it, you get a much better ranking for that post on Better Networker.

Just do a Google search any of my blog posts over the last 3 months. You’ll see that many of them are still ranking on the first page of Google for that topic –for both the blog post, as well as the forum post on Better Networker.


Want to Turbo-burst Better Networker?

If you become a paying member at $10 per month, you have access to two unique aspects of the site.

1. You can to post your articles, videos, blog posts, etc. within the Better Networker community.

Why is this important?

Even MORE opportunities for getting your content to rank high on Google. Remember, Google loves Better Networker!

If you’re leaving an article, video, or blog post, leave a compelling offer at the end to get your readers to look at your site.

2. You will also get the Better Networker seal of approval.

When you become a paying member, not only will other readers of Better Networker.com see that you’re a certified member of this quality community, but you also get a “badge” that you can place on your blog or website.

This is a great way to garner some more branding of you being a certified and professional networker in this industry.

Go check out mine here on the right of this page.


Need To See More?

If you need to see for yourself what Better Networker is all about, and how you can start to utilize all of the tools there to help boost the rankings of your blog and your content, just click the little “Verified Member of Better Networker” badge over on the right of this page.

You’ll be taken to my profile page and you can navigate to any of the other pages within Better Networker from my profile to learn about the awesome content you can utilize to write your blog posts and articles, and then turn around and use the site to syndicate your own content as well.






P.S. – Since I know that you’re going to find Better Networker useful and you’ll want others to know about it so that they see you as someone who spreads useful content and is willing to help them out, up at the top of this post are a green and blue button.  Simply press each one and you will syndicate this post to your friends on Twitter and Facebook.  Your own network will thank you for it!

Remember back to being a kid for a moment:

The messy bedrooms…

Toys thrown all around…

Snack plates left around your room…

Yup – that was me!  Admit it – you were there too.

Admit it, your blog looks that way too!

(o.k. maybe not yours, but mine felt that way – especially the comments).


Which Area Is The Dirtiest?

You probably already have one area of your blog  that looks like a dirty bedroom.  For me, it was my comments section.

It was looking like a Twitter Feed.  Comments were just showing up in the order they came to my blog from oldest to most recent which was fine -BUT, when I posted a reply, all of my reply comments were thrown down at the very bottom and looked like they were just extra blog comments.

They just never matched up with the original comment I was replying to.

Well thanks to Jason Better,  I stumbled on a new widget that cleaned my comments section all up.


So Fresh and So Clean

It’s called ‘WordPress Thread Comment’.   To install it, you can simply click on that link, or have WordPress install it automatically.

To do this, go to your WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New > Search for “WordPress Thread Comment”.  Click “Install” and there you go.

So now, when you look at the comments section below here, you’ll notice that my reply comments are threaded under the original comment that I replied to.

So thank you Jason for an awesome tip that has cleaned up my comment section.


WordPress Thread Comment vs. Disqus

Now, you’re probably asking, why don’t you just install Disqus?

Believe me, I tried!

But is SCREWED up the look of my blog.  It actually ended up erasing all of the posts on my homepage.

Don’t ask me why.  I can only assume that it has something to do with my theme – “Monezine”

I got a hold of my programmers and we simply had to kill the idea of having Disqus on my blog because it was messing with too much stuff.

So needless to say I was ecstatic to find the “WordPress Thread Comment” plugin to clean things up.

Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,






P.S. – Save A Brain – every time you “Share” this post on Facebook, you’re saving another blog marketers brain.  It’s easy to do, just look for the little blue “Share” button on the top of this post and countless Neuro-surgeons across the country will thank you.

MLM Success Strategies are a long list in this industry.

Ask any top income earner, and they will each have individual theories to what is successful and what isn’t.

Some will swear by PPC, others will swear by offline marketing.

Some preach the gospel of internet marketing and generating leads from Facebook.

Yet others are completely consumed by blog and content marketing (hmmm…I have no clue who that could be -wink wink)

But really, the list is way too long to cover in one small post. So…


One Thing We Agree On…

The thing we all agree on is that one of the predominant overall MLM Success strategies is that it is MUCH easier to mastermind with a team of like minded individuals instead of trying to do this all solo.

It really is a matter of “Not what you know, but who you know.”

Those that have had some successful experience, are willing to teach you, build a relationship with you, and in a way take you under the wing – those are the ones that are sought after.

Think back to being a newbie in MLM.

You probably joined someone who had never built a downline, or at most a small one.

You’re were sunk from the beginning.

You started off with your upline wanting you to create a list of 100, giving away sample packs, flyers, CD’s, etc., and telling you to simply go out and build your business.

And that’s it, and then your upline disappears or they have no clue of how to help you out when you’re stuck.

Really you’re left to the mercy of the wolves.

No wonder so many people fail in their first year of network marketing.


The Flipside of All of This

Now simply think about how things could have started off differently.

You’ve just joined a new network marketing company, and from the beginning, you’re invited to a personal mastermind group of people within the team you just joined.

Any given day, you’re able to discuss marketing strategies, what’s working and what’s not, surround yourself with like-minded individuals (people with success helps to breed success), you’re more motivated, and you now have a group of people to bounce ideas off of.

I created a Skype group for my personal mastermind team to surround themselves with people that are always available 24/7 if any of them have a pressing question.

Weekly, my partners and I have a marketing strategy webinar where we introduce a new marketing concept, MLM success strategy, or concept.  We do this to shorten the learning curve for our own personal mastermind teams.

The quicker you get your team into money, the longer they are sure to stick around.

When you build a relationship with your team, what better way is there to show them that you’re invested in them and their success than by actually helping them out by over giving value to them?


True or False?

Live Events are a great way to build your success online?

Unequivocally true!

But it’s not about the products at the events, or necessarily even the training (don’t get me wrong the training is great) but there is something even more important.

The best thing about live events is the relationships you build with your team and fellow marketers.

I’m speaking not just from myself here, but from countless others that have found success online as well.

The insider scoop of what’s hot, who’s doing what, rubbing elbows with other successful marketers, awesome MLM success strategies, and getting to put faces to names is invaluable.

I can’t emphasize enough how important live events are to you in your team relationships and your online MLM success.

Leaving No Network Marketer Behind,

Notice anything different about this blog lately?

It’s not huge, so I’ll give you a hint.  It’s blue and starts with the “F” word.

NO – not THAT word – jeez…

It’s the Facebook Share Button!

Maybe I’m behind the times, or maybe I simply hadn’t noticed or paid close enough attention.

But somewhere along the way I had NOT added the “Facebook Share Button” to my blog until recently.

I actually laughed out loud when I was updating some of my plugins last week, and realized that I had overlooked actually adding it into my Top WordPress Plugins For Internet Marketers.

Since I don’t want this little plugin to feel all left out – I’m dedicating this post to the Facebook Share button – and specifically how you can use it to learn how to Generate MLM Leads from Facebook.



What It Does…

The Facebook share button is a nice little co-worker as it works nicely along side the Tweetmeme Button (which makes it easier for people to share your blog posts with their followers on Twitter).  But this time it’s for Facebook, so if you’re a part of Facebook (who isn’t nowadays?) it should be of interest to you.

That is, unless you’ve already got too many leads and too much web traffic.  You were probably rolling around in honey and then rolled in $100 bills last night just so you could see how many you could get to stick to you.

In that case, just pass this article on to your friends and get back to rolling in your money.



How To Install Your Facebook Share Button:

1.  Login to your WordPress dashboard.

2.  Click on the “Plugins” tab on the far left and then“Add New”.

3.  This will open a new section with a search bar that says “Search Plugins”.

4.  Type: “Facebook Share (New)”. This is the one I am currently using. You can click on the title name and it will send you to an information page about the plugin itself.

5.  You can actually click the “Download” button here which will download the zip file for the Facebook Share Button. Unzip the file on your desktop. Make sure you know where it is.  Then simply upload the file to your webhost. You’ll need your passwords for your webhost. And you’ll have to have a basic knowledge of how to upload files to your webhost to do this but it’s really easy if you’ve done that before.

OR

6.  Instead of clicking on the Download button and doing all of that work, stay on the Search page that lists the “Facebook Share (New)” plugins, and simply click the “Install” link on the far right after the rating stars.  This will download the plugin directly to your WordPress blog.

7.  Activate the Facebook Share plugin by going to the “plugins” link in your Worpress dashboard.  Just find the plugin in your list and click the “Activate” button.

8.  You’ll have to configure the plugin before it’s ready.  At the far left of your Worpress dashboard where you found the “plugins” link, there will now be a “Facebook Share” section at the bottom just above the “TweetMeMe” section if you have that plugin downloaded.

9.  This is where you will go in and play with the settings and configure what you want your button to look like, where you want the button to sit in your posts, etc.

10.  Analytics.  There’s a cool option below the settings link called “Analytics”.  This is where you will be able to track how people are using your Facebook Share Button.  As network marketers, we should always be testing and researching our marketing.  This analytics section will show you which posts of yours are getting shared, how many clicks you’re getting from the button, and other cool data.


Generating MLM Leads From Facebook:

So now you have a cool little tool to help you syndicate your blog posts with the “Facebook Share” button and start generating you even more blog traffic.

Pretty cool right??  It’s great getting more traffic!!

But you also want to learn how to convert that free traffic into warm and responsive leads.  Afterall, that is what this post is all about.

Well thankfully for you, I have a solution.  It is in a recent blog post I created called “Is Your Blog Killing Your Business?”

Inside this post I go into more detail of how to monetize your blog posts to convert your free traffic into responsive leads – all directly from your blog.

If you’re at the point of wanting to learn how to monetize your blog posts, I suggest you go read that post here right now.


One More Thing For You…

I have one more HUGE piece of training for you.

Its called the “Prospect Attraction Guide” and you’ll find the Registration Form for it on the right hand side of this page at the top.

This is not some re-hashed, hyped-up course that you see other people promoting on their sites.

This is my very own content, tactics, and strategies that I use on a continual daily basis, which means one thing – it works!

• How would you like to find a strategy that gets shows you how to dominate Google search?  I’ll show you how I rank and own the Top 10 results for particular search terms on Google.  That means that I am the only person ranking on the very first page of Google for that term – and I show you how you can dominate just as easily.
• I’ll show you my stupidly simple 15 Step Process that I go through every time I create a new blog post.  These are the same steps that allow me to dominate my key word search terms on Google.
• Most people have a monthly marketing budget of 100’s (if not 1000’s) of dollars with no return in their income to show for it.  How would you like to learn how to market your business on a monthly budget of only $75 and have positive return on your money?
• I am also including my 7-Day Attraction Marketing Blueprint as a Bonus to you.  This includes 4 Exclusive webinars that will show you how to generate free leads from your blog, Facebook, and article submissions, as well as more of my own training that I am including
• I’ll also show you how you can join my Personal “Invitation Only” Mastermind group of  entrepreneurs that I am training to master their blog, article, video, and other content marketing strategies.
• I’ll show you the exact System and Tools that I use to help train my Personal team, build a relationship with my leads, generate affiliate commissions from people that never join my Primary business, and have people seeking me out asking how they can join my business.
