Using Social Media Tools Is A Win Win Baby!

The beauty of using social media tools for attraction marketing is everyone wins. The content creator wins because you have given her content a vote of confidence by leaving a comment. You win because you get exposed to all the other visitors to the site. The site visitors win because they get exposed to many different views on the subject they came there to learn about.

Using these social media tools is a “win win win” situation.

Sites like Squidoo, Better Networker and Hubpages, are some of the best and easiest social sites to use because they not only give you the opportunity to leave a comment you can vote for the content as well. Voting is a HUGE benefit. When your content is voted on it’s yet another sign to the SEO powers that be that this is valuable content and it helps the host site know what content to feature.

Let’s take a closer look at some of the built in social media tools to help you brand yourself at one of our sites… Squidoo.

First off there is the "Favorite It" button.

You'll find this button in the right hand column of each "Lens" (page). In the "Bookmark & Share" section you'll see a link called "Favorite It". All you have to do is click on that link while logged into your Squidoo account and Squidoo will take care of the rest. It places your bio picture along with a link to a list of YOUR lenses right there on the page you are reading.

Your vote of confidence adds value to the person presenting the content you are favoriting and you get a link to YOUR content placed in front of all the folks who visit that page.

The universial social media tool... Comments anyone?

The second easy way Squidoo makes scattering your links around easy is with the guest book/comments sections. When you leave a comment Squidoo automatically adds a link to a list of YOUR lenses attached to the comment you've made. Remember, to use favorite it or to leave comments you'll need a Squidoo account and be logged into it.

No matter what social media tool you are using, remember adding VALUE is the key. Whether it's Squidoo, Facebook, Better Networker or a Blog be sure you ADD VALUE when you leave a comment. These web 2.0 tools are powerful but only if you use them properly. No one will pay any attention to worthless drivel or spam.

So get out there and learn to make use of these social media tools. Done properly, you will surf along the internet leaving a trail of content and back links behind you. This builds your brand by bringing you to the attention of others interested in the same topics you are. By definition, if people are reading and commenting on the same articles you are, this is a crowd of people interested in what you are doing. In the process you add value to the sites you visit by leaving a thoughtful comment.

Do You, The Network Marketer, Understand the Power That Social Media Tools Can Have Upon Your Network Marketing Business?

First of all, let me began asking you the network marketer, "Are you using social media tools, to engage your audience?" I mean are you really engaging them to a pivotal point , where they are in "AWE". If you are that's great . But if your not, take a moment sit back and learn how powerful social media tools can be for you and your network marketing business.

You know it was just the other day, I was listening to Nightline. And they were talking with Tony Hawk, the famous skateboarder.

"The Famous Skateboarder, Tony Hawk."

And as normal Nightline was talking about his career, his family and his age. You know the norm.
And then all of a sudden,

Guess what?

Nightline began talking about social media tools and how Tony Hawk uses the communication tool. Did you hear me "Social Media Tools?" The most phenomenon piece of communication tool available to us besides the telephone. I hope you heard me when I said that "The Most Phenomenon tool available."

Now, watch this video clip. And pay close attention to how Tony Hawk engages his audience.

Now after watching video, "Did you see how he alerted his audience with just a few keystrokes from his finger?" And all of a sudden people start coming in droves just to see what he was giving a away or offering.

I know you may say, your not famous like him. But I want you, the network marketer to remember Tony Hawk did not start out as a famous skateboarder. He started out as a individualy just like every else.. He basically built and branded his name by providing his market with value. He learned a skill that many of his followers are longing to conquer.

I hope you heard, "He Learned A Skill"

And that's what I want you to see, You learn a "skill" that your audience is craving for... And then all of sudden, you use the social media tool as your platform to AH-HA the audience.

Now if you see and understand how powerful the social media tools can be for you and your network marketing business, I encourage to get the in depth training on how to use the social media tool from Renegade University.

First of all, let me ask you again, "Are you using social media tools such as YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, or Myspace for your network marketing business?"

If you are, that's great. But if your aren't, that's a bummer because social media tools can really catapult your network marketing business to a level that you could never imagine.

Did you here me, "A level that you could never imagine?"

I know that may seem unimaginable to you, but I'm here to tell you, it’s real. Because I've seen it first hand as a network marketer, myself.

Let me tell you, when I began plugging myself and my network marketing business into these social media tools, something happen. Something that I can't really put into words. All I know is the scope of my network marketing business changed forever.

The business had taken on a new form because of the viewership. Something that had never happen in my offline world. You know actually in my offline world my viewership couldn't compare because...

And i believe you can answer that question, but if not...

Let me tell you, it was because I engaged into the social media tools. Tools that allowed me to communicate with people from far and wide. I mean literally communicate with people completely around the globe.

Can you say the same?

If not, continue reading as I share more...

Let me ask you,

"Did you know that YouTube had over 14.3 billions viewers in the month of December (2008) alone?"

Over 14.3 billions viewers!"

You know that's a lot of viewers. Now, "Could you imagine just having a small portion of those viewers looking at your network marketing business?

I mean can you really imagine it? Seamlessly having viewers for life because their interested in you..

Now, imagine having a couple more social media tools in your arsenal,

such as Facebook, and Twitter.

Facebook having over 200 million active users daily and twitter growing exponentially daily.

Can you actually see where your network marketing business can go? I surly hope so...

As I said before my viewership changed. My Facebooks friends and my Twitter followers were once upon time limited, but now they’re completely off the charts. All because I began using the power of social media tools properly.

So, could your network marketing business take on a few more viewers and potentially new partners, if so come visit us at Renegade University to learn how you can use social media tools and grow your business exponentially, too.
