In this video I show you how to create a great welcome video on Facebook to welcome your new friends. I also do a similar video for birthday wishes. What I do recommend is that you leave these videos unscripted, it brings in a real feeling of genuineness in to the videos. This is a great strategy to connect better with people.
P.S. Remember to leave your Comments, questions & other tips you have on this subject.
I’ve been in social media, shorter then most of guru marketers, but I’m a quick study and I’ve learned what works and what doesn’t when it comes to marketing on social media sites.
What NOT to do:
Do not blatantly throw your products or business opportunities in the faces of your friends or followers. Lets face it, if that is your strategy you will be seen as more of an annoyance than someone of interest. I’m tolerant but I do have my limits and sometimes I will block or unfollow those that get really annoying.
The first message you send to a follower or friend should not be to “go check out my opportunity at will” or “This will make you money sign up now and I’ll build your downline” or my personal favorite “check out my new summer job” (I’m getting a lot of those from Facebook & Twitter)…guess what happens to those messages and any other message that person may send Your right ..DELETE
Don’t keep tweeting the same thing over and over, I notice a lot of people doing this. Its annoying. How would you react if you came up to someone at a party and they said the same two things to you every time you saw them.
Do not mention someone in a tweet on Twitter and just send them a link. That’s spamming, really annoying, and will get you unfollowed
Things that you SHOULD do:
Remember that social media is about building relationships! It is about building trust and making connections with people you would have never met before. You do that by talking about yourself what you are doing in your daily life, your interests , finding interesting information and sharing it with your friends, this is how you connect on a personal level and build trust.
Send out entertaining tweets, tweet about you and what you are doing. Twitter loves life style.For example: 4 excellent tips
With Twitter remember to keep your tweets to 120 characters so that people can re-tweet your tweet. Sometimes I find awesome tweets but I cant RT them even using TweetDeck because there just too long.
Send personal messages to the people you connect with, try to at least connect with most people who accept your friendship or follow you, chat a little with a new person each day, its not called “social” media for nothing.
Make personal connections and offer any help that you can to fellow marketers with NO catch. Even a little help work in your favor. If you think you don’t know enough about this business here’s a tip…go educate yourself. There are a lot of great resources out there, the best ones you have to pay for but are always worth more than you end up paying for them. If you don’t know who to trust. Ask me I will be glad to help.
Go out and brand yourself, social media is about you and who you are, At this point no one really cares about your company or your products. They care about what you have to offer and about who you are.
Social media should be fun, if you are not having fun you should stop and rethink what you are doing on these sites. You only have one chance to do this right so take your time, and learn a little before you jump in.
I will end this discussion here because I want to hear what you all think. I want your thoughts, opinions, experiences and advice.
