Network Marketing with Magnetic Sponsoring and The Renegade

The other day I wrote about Tweeter Getter, a Twitter list building tool that uses a viral concept to grow your list significantly faster than you ordinarily could. In the last article, I suggested if you move forward and use it, proceed with caution.

*For those who don't know, Twitter is the best networking tool you can use today to attract prospects and build relationships for business.  Once Marketing Merge "Renegade" Professional stops allowing new members to join later this month, we will be focusing our membership on how to build your entire 'attraction marketing' and list building process with Twitter. I'm going to get into it in detail. You'll love it. More on that later.

Back to Tweeter Getter: I'm Liking What I See So Far...

I'm liking what I see from Tweeter Getter. I'm still cautious but far less than I was when I wrote about it last week. I'm still waiting to hear back from Twitter about how they feel about this viral tool, but judging by the fact the creator of the viral tool has grown his Twitter list from zero to 11,000+ in days and he still has his account up, I can only guess Twitter doesn't mind the extra exposure. I studied their terms and can't see anywhere where it violates their terms. I've talked with the creator of the viral tool... he seems very "transparent" and sincere in his intentions to add value to the online community. It'll be interesting how this all shakes down, that's for sure.

I've spent 15+ hours studying the debate and don't believe there is merit in the common stance that Tweeter Getter is a harmful tool to social media 'networking' and value-based sharing. I think a misconception has evolved from past tools that were harmful and that sometimes people have a difficult time deciphering the subtle distinctions between new things and old experiences. For example, if you were bit by a dog the first time, a similar dog in the future may frighten you... but if the first dog was a rottweiler and the new dog is a beagle, well, your perception is understandable but not accurate. I think that's what has happened here.

I explain more in the Tweeter Getter updated article why using Tweeter Getter to build your list actually helps you provide more value to more people AFTER they get on your list. And since the nature of Twitter is that many people follow you without you ever knowing why, my perspective is why not get more to follow you through Tweeter Getter. As long as you're proving value (discussion, etc) after they're on your list you are using Twitter as it should be used. I've been promoting Tweeter Getter at Google Adwords and traffic exchanges like Traffic Swarm (changed all my ads over to Tweeter Getter since Traffic Swarm won't get results for affiliate e-books any more, that time has passed).

Genius or Stupidity...

I just have a feeling that this is either one of the stupidest or smartest things I've jumped on and only time will tell which it is. As a business person, I'm a risk taker. But I do so after research and consideration. I am usually right in my hunches but it would be misleading (and hard to sell you on that statement) if I didn't mention I've been wrong before :-)

Still, I would bet the bank on Twitter. I think everyone should stop what they are doing and put a significant effort into understanding and learning how to use Twitter to build your business, whether you use Tweeter Getter to do it or not. Again, we'll focus tremendously on this soon, tying in together the lessons we are covering now in "How I Built My First List" with the emphases of providing your own value, along with using a blog, your own lead capture pages and each of the 5 components I've recently discussed to duplicate the success I've had time and time again. That's going to be the next big training focus coming up for Professionals.

As a side note, I got over 200 visitors to my blog in the last 48 hours from Twitter. All free, highly targeted. It is the most powerful list and relationship tool I have used or seen, period.

More About Using Tweeter Getter to Build Your Twitter List Faster...

To hear why I believe this is a great way to build your Twitter list and attract quality relationships, as well as why I feel Tweeter Getter is 100% in line with how Twitter should be used (discussions with prospects, providing value, etc), view the Tweeter Getter follow up article here, along with an update on how I'm promoting it and what my results have been so far.

Remember, I recently asked a question. We asked for you to share the difference between providing value to your audience, vs. pitching and selling. We've gotten some incredibly insightful replies. If you haven't done so already view all the replies and compare them by going to search.twitter.com and search for @mikeklingler (no spaces). You'll see all the replies I've gotten on Twitter recently including dozens (maybe it's hundreds now) of responses to the value vs. picthing question. Connect with the community! Stay informed. Be engaged! Build relationships and alliances with leaders and newbies alike.

See you again soon,
