What do you need to do to market yourself on the web so people want to engage with you?

Believe it or not, we are pack animals, we need to follow a leader in everything we do!

When someone takes on the responsibility to be a leader they are seen differently, they are seen as someone to look up to.
It doesn’t matter how hard you try, you will still see some people as larger than life. It all depends on the way they portray themselves.
You can’t help but be attracted to leaders. These people portray themselves as confident, successful and even rich.
But what you must remember is that this is only how you perceive them, it may not be how they really are.
They could look confident but could be shaking inside, they may not be successful but they act like they are, they may not be rich but perhaps they have borrowed their designer suit from a friend!

So the moral to this story is….even though you may have to beg steal or borrow to portray the right impression…the fact that you are aware of what is required means that you are on the right track.
I am not saying you should be a fraud, I am saying that you should give the right impression. How many of you have dressed up for an interview, I am sure you don’t always walk around in a suit and tie!

Remember:

It is not the amount of money you have or just the amount of knowledge you have gained it is how you portray yourself.

So here are my 6 tips that will get you on to the path of attaining “Internet Celebrity Status”.

1. Take responsibility for your well being. Do things to give yourself that personal boost. It could be losing weight, getting fit or changing your wardrobe. If you don’t love yourself, no one else will!
2. Build a website around a great profile, it could be a separate site from your business website or you could just dedicate a page to yourself but please do make sure you have a great profile and the website shows you off well. We’ve all got something we are good at or proud of…learn how to tell everyone about it using all the social media platforms!
3. Make sure that your website is optimised and marketed to drive traffic to it. You can learn how to do this in my “The Image Attraction System” e-mail course.
4. Join all the important business networking websites like LinkedIn, Facebook, Ecademy, Spoke, Twitter and learn how to interact with the people.
5. Offer value to others, don’t give just to receive. “You can have everything in life you want if you will help enough other people get what they want.” ~ Zig Ziglar
6. Choose a role model and try to be like them…if possible get close to them!

People buy from people! You never get a second chance to make a first impression!

Do you think that your busines would benefit from you having an Internet Celebrity status?

I went from leaving a full time job in August last year to setting up my own blogging site and being Forbes listed as one of the top 30 women entrepreneurs to follow on Twitter.

I have been interviewed for “The Get Inspired Project”. 365 inspirational people – one interview a day for one year!
The Get Inspired Project showcases not only what people need to be inspired but what approaches they are taking to inspire others.

Do you think that, if you had a great status on the Internet that it would help your business?

Of-course it would – it would supercharge your business wouldn’t it! Read More

The ‘desire’ portion of your profile is where you present the facts of your expertise and success; create and justify your prospect’s conviction and cause him to demand a piece of the action’ for himself.
It’s vitally necessary that you present proven facts because survey results show that at least 80% of the people reading your profile – especially those reading it for the first time – will tend to question its truthfullness. So, the more facts you can present, the more credible you will be.
As you write your profile, always remember that the more facts about “you” you present, the more products you’ll sell. Read More

According to Wikipedia – The Internet actually started in 1969, (yes, only 1969!), as the ARPANET, a Defense Department system designed to let survivors share files after a nuclear attack. From being available on just a handful of top secret computers, it’s grown to millions and millions of users.

And it’s still growing. According to a recent survey, the volume of Internet traffic is expected to double annually over the next five years. Consumers are expected to account for 70 percent of all Internet traffic over that period with the rest of the market made up of business users.

What does that mean for you?

It means customers—millions of them.

No other business tool can put the products you sell in front of so many people so easily. Nothing even comes close. Read More

Don’t you love it when people ask you these questions!

I do try to answer as best I can but without knowing the person or their blog speciality it is difficult to give a helpful answer.

Unless you’re one of the blog gurus who have been blogging for many years then I suppose the answer has to be “no”.

But don’t let that put you off, you can make a tidy living from your blog but it comes with a price. You need to put a lot of time and effort in, the old saying, “write it and they will come” is a fallacy.

The magic word is traffic. You need to drive traffic to your blog. Sure, regular posts will attract the search engines over time but you need to grab your marketing with both hands and promote yourself in the right places. See my previous posts on marketing in places like LinkedIn and Twitter to drive traffic. Read More
