Facebook Engagement Tips – Conversation Starters To Increase Engagement on Facebook

January 20, 2012 1 comment


Engagement is the holy grail of Facebook. It’s the one thing newbie marketers covet and the one thing seasoned Facebook users work so hard to maintain. Engagement is the key to Facebook success. If your fans are not liking, sharing, commenting, posting and raving about your Page content, you might as well be the wall flower at the party. You’ll find yourself at the party but not really working the party.

You have to work Facebook to get anything out if it and success doesn’t happen by chance, it is strategically planned and orchestrated. At the core of every successful Facebook marketing strategy is Conversation, Communication and Consistency.

Here are a few tips that you can implement today, to help you get the conversation started on your Facebook Page so you’re hearing more than the crickets!

Make sure to take note of the examples I share with you. They’ll give you some hints and clues as to why they are some of the most popular Pages on Facebook.

 1. Know Your Audience: Knowing your audience is crucial.  You can have the best Chat-Ups and questions ever, but if they are not attracting your ideal audience, they will fall flat. Do your research and find out what “type” of people following a specific page respond to. What works great for engaging them on one page, may not engage them on another page.

2. Question of the Day: Asking questions on Facebook is a great way to spark up activity and drive traffic to your Page. Post a question or do a Q &A Session where your fans get to ask you questions! Social Media Examiner does a great job when it comes to Q&A with the experts.

When asking questions on Facebook make sure to KISS.

Who do you have to win the football game on Sunday? vs. What did you think of the quarterback ratings from Sundays game?

Which one do you think will get the best response? The first one right!

Questions that require only one word answers are WAY better than questions that require you to right a thesis. So keep it short and sweet!

3. Hot Tip of The Day: Start your conversation with “Hot Tip of The Day” or depending on the niche you are in you may want to be more specific. If you are a mom working from home you can put “Hot Mompreneur Tip of The Day:” or “Mompreneur Quick Tip:”. Say you’re a author, you can ask questions  or post tips that are featured or discussed in your latest book. Charles J. Orlando, Author of The Problem With Women…Is Men.

This helps fans become familiar with your style and it keeps you communicating in a consistent way where your fans come to expect and actually look forward to the days when you give your free tips.

4. Breaking News: Staying consistent and up to date with current events, trends and movements helps to establish yourself as an expert and authority. Keep your ear to the pulse of what’s moving and shaking in your industry. Those that are the first to break news can become valuable, trusted source the others in the marketplace. So Stay in The Know!

5. Fill in The Blank: This is a great way to get people talking and to get a short response that is easy for people and fun.

6. Toolbox Tuesday: If you are in an industry where there are specific tools, applications, or software programs that add value to your business…share them with people. You can also ask people what tools they are using to get things done, to become more productive or that helps them to be more profitable.

7. Fun Fact Friday: People love facts! Share a fun fact or post a  “Did you know” type of post.

8. Deal of The Day: If you have the type of business where you offer promotions or deals on a regular basis, dedicate one day a week to sharing the latest deals. You can also share deals from other sources, retail outlets, etc withing your niche. This is really good for affiliate marketers who make a living promoting a lot of different products.

9. Photo or Video Day: Are taking pictures or shooting videos a big part of your business platform. Put them to good use by having a Photo Friday or Video Monday where you share your latest vlog post or share pictures.  Here is a great example of Zappos doing a Photo Friday, which always has some really great conversation starters to increase engagement among their fans.

10. Quote of the Day: This is a classic, but one that works really well. Share your favorite quote or come up with you own witty or insightful sayings to encourage and entertain others.

When Is The Best Time To Engage

The hardest part of building a wildly successful Page is knowing when to get the party started. Post 3-5 times a day, every day to get the momentum you need to get people involved. But what are the best times of day to engage on Facebook?

A study done by Buddy Media found that daily Facebook engagement has three peaks: early morning (7 a.m. EST), after work (5 p.m. EST) and late at night (11 p.m. EST). Therefore, posting all of your updates during the workday means you’re missing key opportunities to engage fans at non-work hours.

It may take a while, but keep it up. Try keeping  specific conversations or topics on certain days of the week. This not only helps you to be more consistent  it also helps you to focus on the type of content you are going to be adding to your page.

Outsourcing with Fiverr.com : Using Fiverr For Your Small Business

November 25, 2011 4 comments

outsourcing for small businessHave you ever considered outsourcing for your small business? Well as an entrepreneur there will no doubt be times where you’ll need specific tasks done in order to build your brand and market your business. The problem is that most small business owners don’t have a lot of front-end money at their disposal and are building their business on a budget.

So how can you build a small business on a budget?

Got $5 Bucks?

You may be asking yourself well what can $5 get me these days? Well the answer may surprise you…If you are a small business owner or entrepreneur building a business from home, money can be tight and the thought of outsourcing for your small business may seem overwhelming. Most small business owners don’t even make a profit their first year in the game.

If you haven’t heard of Fiverr.com, then please let me enlighten you…because you are missing out on one of the best places to outsource for your growing small business.

Wouldn’t it be great to get business cards, banners, websites, social media exposure, backlinks, ebook covers and SEO services for under $5? Well this is the idea behind Fiverr.com, the website designed to connect you with people who will do just about anything for $5.

outsourcing for small business owners
Features of Fiverr.com

  • Everything is offered for $5.
  • Everyone can join for free.
  • Customers pay via PayPal.
  • Sellers will receive their Payout thru PayPal.
  • You have the ability to cancel or withdraw an order.
  • Customers can rate their sellers based on product quality, time of delivery and performance.
  • Sellers can rate their customers based on compliance and response.

How to Use Fiverr For Your Small Business

I stumbled upon Fiverr.com after attending a webinar hosted by fellow marketing rockstars, Toby and Layla Black, about building your brand online through blogging. I was in the midst of creating my first eBook and I decided to give a a whirl because I was in need of an eBook cover. Needless to say I fell in love! Within 24 hours I had a killer eBook cover in 7 different formats all for $5.

Fiverr in my opinion is a great place to start outsourcing random tasks at a low rate for your small business.

Here are a few tasks that I have outsourced from Fiverr.

  • eBooks
  • Website optimization/SEO
  • Promo Videos
  • DVD covers
  • Logo Design

You can also outsource small business projects such as your wordpress set up, website banners, blog posts, business cards,  social media backgrounds, and much more.

I suggest that you do your research first. Before you outsource anything for your small business project compare other outsourcing or work-for-hire websites such as oDesk.com, Elance.com, 99 Designs, and see how much they are charging for the project you want completed.

Pitfalls of Using Fiverr.com for your small business…

Yes with every good there’s a bad…The major pitfall is that it costs $5. There is something that can be said for the phrase “You get what you pay for?” and though in my experience I’ve been pretty satisfied with the end result, there are some limitations.

#1 There are a lot of gigs to choose from and though most Fiverr vendors have reviews and comments posted you just never know what you are going to end up with. Sometimes conveying your vision through an email is not the best way to get your point across and for 5 bucks there are only so many revisions people are willing to do.

#2 This has happened to me on more than one occasion. I commission a project, love the work, and when I want to go back and find the same vendor they are gone or no longer doing that specific gig. This sucks big time because it is hard to find vendors that can do a job exactly how you want it done and when you find them and then they leave you, it’s really like losing a boyfriend…yes Heartbroken!

#3 Sometimes you just gotta pay a little extra to get it done fast and get it done right. There will be times when you need a reliable source to complete your small business project. Efficiency is just as important as cost. If you have to pay multiple people on fiverr $5 because it wasn’t done right the first time you could find yourself wasting more time than if you just paid a little bit more to get it done exaclty how you wanted it from the get go.

The bottom line is this…I love fiverr!! There are a lot of people online who give it a hard time because they expect to get a $300 dollar job done for five bucks! I’ve lot’s of projects done on Fiverr and will continue to outsource using this site.  Though I’ve never posted a gig myself, it’s also a fantastic place to sell your services too…just another way for you to earn income promoting your expertise while you get your main business off the ground.

The primary message here is that outsourcing is here to stay and you shouldn’t be afraid to pay outside experts to do what you can’t do yourself or you don’t have time to do yourself. Rapid growth and success in your small business comes with knowing how to effectively and efficiently leverage your money and your resources. Fiverr is a great place for both!

Have any cool experiences with Fiverr?! Share them here…I’d love to know how you’ve used the $5 site.

500,000 Hungry MLM Prospects A Month and You Can’t Sponsor One?

November 1, 2011 4 comments

mlm leadsIt’s shocking when people tell me that the reason they don’t have the success they want in their mlm opportunity is because they don’t have any one to talk to. They don’t have any mlm leads or they can’t find any mlm prospects interested in their home business.

Are YOU Kidding ME!!!

I was researching some mlm online and came across this AWESOME statistic.  Did you know that almost half a MILLION people are looking for a home business on the web every single month. 500,000 people you guys!!

How INSANE is that. Now imagine if you could get just 3, 5, 10 of those 500,000 people in to YOUR business each month. What would your business look like? What your income look like? Better yet what would your life look like?

It would be pretty SWEET wouldn’t it!!

Half a million entrepreneurial minded people, actively seeking an opportunity to start their own business…and you as an MLM professional can’t sponsor ONE rep into your business.

Get out of here.

If you can’t sponsor one person into your business you are either not applying yourself (aka LAZY) or you are just not applying yourself…LAZY!

MLM and especially MLM online is not that hard. If you are able to get yourself in front of a few people, grab their attention, then expose them to what you have, you will inevitably find people that like what they see and will want to join you.

So why do people find it so hard to generate new mlm leads and sponsor new reps online?

Most people don’t have an effective system of exposing their business opportunity to the masses?

Yes your company may provide you with marketing materials and even give you a replicated website, but does it do the job of answering the questions that people want answered before they spend their hard earned money and invest in your home based business?

Most of the times it doesn’t…

MLM prospects want to know who is going to help them? How they are going to help them? Where they are going to find people to talk to about their business?

At the end of it all, people will not join your business or any other business for that matter if they do not feel like they CAN DO IT. If they don’t feel like they can succeed then they won’t do it and if you don’t answer the questions they need they will continue to look for someone else who can…and it is as simple as that.

So how do you actually overcome these obstacles so that you begin to sponsor more reps, leverage your mlm online, and have something that your new team members can come in and duplicate right away?

The answer is in a simple system that will turn prospects into business partners even while you sleep. It handles most of the dirty work for you by answering the questions your prospects want to know the most…and the best part is that it is completely generic and work any home based business. Yes YOURS too!

It shows your prospects step by step where to find people to talk to about their business, it puts the right words in their mouth so they know how to talk to their mlm leads and it makes them feel secure in quest to build a successful business from home.

It eliminates rejection, doesn’t require any special skills and it attracts the right people to you and your business opportunity. And what makes this system really cool is the fact that when your prospect is ready to get going, they’ll contact you and say “I’m ready to get started”.

Want to plug your business opportunity into my mlm system?

The #1 Secret To Becoming A MLM Recruiting Rockstar & Having People Join Your MLM

October 29, 2011 No comments yet

mlm recruitingPeople ask me all the time. Andrea, how to I get people to join me in my MLM. Well there is a short, simple answer that most of the times get’s people to that Ah Hah Moment where they go from mlm recruiting wanna be to mlm recruiting rockstar!

So what’s the secret?

What’s the #1 secret for making your prospects pay attention to you? What’s the secret to having them buy the products you recommend without question? And what’s the secret to having them join your MLM the moment you send out the invitation?

I’m going to let you in on the secret in just a moment but I warn you – it may be so simple of a concept that you just may not get it!

You know alot of times we think that becoming a mlm recruiting rockstar is COMPLICATED, INVOLVED and ROCKET SCIENCE!

It’s not. It’s about using what you have, who you are and all of the great things that make you YOU…and putting that KILLER MENTALITY behind everything you do.

The #1 Secret to Becoming A MLM Recruiting Rockstar is about  having “KILLER INSTINCT” when it comes to your business.

For any of my basketball fans out there I am going to ask you a simple question. What makes LeBron James different from Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson.

They all have phenomenal talent..right?

They’re all superstars…right?

They all have accolades and more money than most will make in 100 lifetimes…right?

Now this is no knock on LeBron, but what separates him from greatness, what separates him from being a being a world champion…is this…

Michael Jordan was  KILLER when he got on the court

Kobe Bryant was a KILLER when he got on the court

Magic Johnson was a KILLER when he got on the court

It was the mental toughness, the confidence, the belief that no one in the game is better than you. That no one can beat you, that no one can take away what you have already claimed to be yours.

The most important thing you can do with the information I’m giving you is to simply start being what you want to be.

NO FEAR!! NO FEAR!! NO FEAR!! Tell yourself a 1000 times a day (like I do) that “I am the best”. No one is going to out recruit me, out skill be, out work me, out play me, out earn me, out do me!

And when you get that KILLER INSTINCT in your spirit then the doors will bust wide open!

So what is this mysterious thing you can do to become a mlm recruiting rockstar?

Show them that you have a VISION and you are going somewhere.

Show them that you have passion.

Show them that you have a winning attitude.

Show them that you are going to take them where they want to go.

Show them that you SHOW UP TO WIN.

Show them that you EXPECT nothing but SUCCESS!

You have to let people now you are DEAD SERIOUS about the network marketing game…and that you are WINNING with or without them.

If you are always showing up, if you are always ready to win…people know they can trust you, they know they can depend on you to make the right move…they know you will be there to lead them to the finish line.

When you open up your doors to recruit, they’ll jump on board. Because they know there is SUCCESS written all over it and you are going for the GOLD.

If you work on that one thing, you will KILL IT in this industry. You’ll become a force to be reckoned with.  You can recruit more people and make more money with less than someone who has TONS of leads, all the talent in the world but lacks that KILLER SPIRIT.

It’s THAT powerful.

Expect Success

4 Tips To Find Free Quality Traffic For Your Online Business

July 25, 2011 No comments yet

Quality traffic for your online business always outweighs the quantity traffic your website sees. As you may know, quality traffic is buying traffic and traffic that buys means more product sales and more profits for you. Too many marketers focus on the number of leads they collect for their email mailing list versus targeting people who are more likely to be interested in your product, service or business opportunity.

When you have the right tools and resources you can hone in on the quality traffic for your online business and stop wasting time with traffic that is never going to buy from you. This means that for those of you in the home based business industry – perhaps internet marketers, network marketers, or affiliate marketers – focusing on the following free traffic tips will help you convert more traffic into sales. Finding a quality stream of traffic is extremely easy when you have the right resources. This way you don’t need as much traffic to get some awesome results.

Free Quality Traffic For Your Online Business – Tip #1

Capitalize On Facebook. Facebook is the king of content and targeted marketing. Their whole social networking platform is based on grouping people together that share similar interests. You have the ability to target quality traffic for your online business based on the books they read, their education level, down to where they live. Once you learn how to tap into this endless pool of prospects…all your traffic problems are over.

Free Quality Traffic For Your Online Business – Tip #2

Use Syndication Tribes. Syndication tribes are the ultimate bloggers paradise. A tribe is where you can share your content and have it syndicated or submitted to Facebook, Twitter, Delicious, Digg, etc. by others in the group in exchange for sharing a few posts of theirs. It’s the law of reciprocity. You share my content and I’ll share yours on all the social network and bookmarking sites on the internet. Pretty simple concept, but EXTREMELY POWERFUL!

In fact this tactic is SO powerful that if you are just getting started online it will help you get tons of quality backlinks AND your blog posts will get shared by thousands of others which will help you build up your daily traffic and leads fast. You can join a syndication tribe for free here to start getting your content shared. I HIGHLY recommend that you take advantage of the paid trial period so you can immediately being to use the auto-syndicate feature. This way you are running on autopilot and you don’t have to worry about manually sharing individual tribe member’s content. You can also have others automatically send out your content each time you publish a post too.  I get hundreds and hundreds of shares on the content I create using this tool.

Join a syndication tribe for more quality traffic for your online business

Free Quality Traffic For Your Online Business – Tip #3

Focus on Forums. With social media being all the rave, forums tend not to get as much credit as they deserve. Sites such as BettwerNetworker and Warrior Forum are great niche specific communities of network marketers, internet marketers and affiliate marketers. These sites get tons of quality traffic and you can find people who are involved in home based businesses, many of whom are just getting started. These sites are excellent for posting content, participating in discussions and connecting with people who are actually looking for some guidance. By posting quality content and posting it as an article you can attract massive traffic as these sites are high authority sites with high pageranks and are popular with google.

Free Quality Traffic For Your Online Business – Tip #4

Hypnotic Headlines. What good is it to implement all of these quality traffic building strategies if no one reads your content. Whether you are in a tribe, on BetterNetworker, or posting on Facebook. you must be able to attract targeted traffic and grab peoples attention. Too many people neglect the power of a good headline and even more neglect choosing a keyword that people are actually searching for. You must have a good, descriptive, engaging headline with a targeted keyword phrase that draws people in and makes them want to read more about what you have to say. Don’t you look at the TITLE of the blog post, video or article first before deciding if you want click through to continue viewing?

Think about what kind type of people you want to attract with your content. Do you want the kind of people who are serious about building a business from home and genuinely looking to invest money on quality products? I do! Be careful how you craft your headline and before your hit publish, ask yourself if your ideal prospect would click this link.

By implementing these free quality traffic tips you can begin to drive targeted traffic to your blog quickly. If you want to learn more about how to get more traffic, more leads and more sales online click the link below!

5 Minute Article Marketing Submission Tool For More Free Leads

July 22, 2011 No comments yet

5 minute article marketing submission toolIn today’s post I am going to share with you a simple, 5 minute article marketing submission tool for more free leads. Having a quick and easy article marketing tool that drives traffic to your site can mean the difference between a few leads and a lot of leads from your article marketing efforts.

Article Marketing is a good promotional tool to drive free and targeted traffic to your sites. In fact, many top internet network marketers still use article marketing to get more leads, make more sales and sign up more reps into their business opportunity. If article marketing in not a part of your daily marketing strategy it should be and I am going to show you how in just a few minutes a day you can use an article marketing submission tool for more free leads.

  • Quick Tip on Article Marketing – Re-purpose your content by creating a blog post with a minimum of 500 words. Submit that same blog post to high quality article directories. Next take your article save it as a PDF and upload it to top reading  and publishing sites such as Scribd. Take bullet points and summarize your article in a video tutorial. You can then use that same and make an information product out of it for more sales and profits online. Think webinars, ebooks and video eCourses. Now you have 5 different medias of content that can all magnify your lead generation efforts!

The main problem for internet network marketers looking to do article marketing is that it is a very time consuming traffic generation method. It takes time to brainstorm a topic, do keyword research and write your content. Then once your content has been created you must effectively promote it to maximize your traffic.

For these very reasons, many struggling internet network marketers I know have all put given up on article marketing.

Now all of the challenges I have just mentioned are true but it doesn’t have to be this way if you have the right tools. What if you could implement a daily routine where it took you less than 5 minutes to automatically submit your articles to high-ranking traffic sites such as EzineArticles.com, IdeaMarketers.com, GoArticles.com and a lot more other authority article sites.

Doesn’t it just make since to submit your content to a hand-full of high racking sites verses spinning your content into unreadable garbage that no one can read just to get low quality back links? Since I’ve started online, I have tried about 4 different article submission software programs and all but one have proven to be more of a headache than given the real results they claimed they could. No one has the time, money or energy to input hundreds  of captcha codes and deal with failed submissions.

The mark of a great article submission tool is one that is quick, easy and convenient!

Here is a short video tutorial of the 5 minute article marketing submission tool I use every day to drive quality back links to this site and generate more free leads.

Ever since I started using this tool I’ve been able to write more articles, submit them quickly and generate more leads.  It’s that simple.

Reveals How You Can Copy The Exact Traffic Strategies That Generate
3,000 + Leads Every Single Month..

Is That A $100 Dollar Bill I See?!

November 30, 2010 3 comments

How can a simple drop card explode your offline MLM marketing strategies?! Well the answer is pretty simple. Using $100 dollar drop cards is  actually a fun way to market your business and it gets rid of any awkward face-to-face pitching. What does a person usually do when they see money on the ground? They look side-to-side to see if anyone is looking and then they step on it and snatch it up before anyone notice. Well this premise behind the $100 dollar drop card and what makes it so effective.

Almost every single person I know who have ever seen a $100 dollar bill just lying on a table or on the ground will pick it up. Well a drop card is a replication of a $100 dollar bill that is half the size and has the middle half removed. You can write your website name and your tag line on the back. If you fold the note in half then it looks very similar to a real note when found on the floor.

These slick business cards are designed to attract  attention. They only look like bills on one side though because printing both sides like bills is illegal…and we don’t want to end up pitching our business to the inmates in the slammer now do we?!

Network marketer and entrepreneurs are using these left and right; it is something that you can leave at a restaurant, in a pair of jeans at the mall or inside a book. You can drop them on the sidewalk or in the credit card slot at the gas station. No matter where you decide to drop them you can be sure that someone out there will pick it up and read the info on the back.

What makes drop cards so effective is that even if someone is not interested in your business, they’ll keep the card just to show it off to their friends. Regular business cards are usually tossed in the trash, or end up at the bottom of a purse or shoved into a drawer in your desk never to be seen again…but a drop card is guaranteed to leave an impression in your mind because it is unique, it is bold, and it’s just flat out awesome!  Imagine giving exchanging cards with someone at a meeting, networking event or at a restaurant. What would be the impact be of you giving that person a nice, crisp $100 dollar bill drop card, while he’s passing off his plain-jane-run-of-the-mill business card. That person will be sure to remember you and your business!

And so what if someone picks up your card, gets mad because they were “faked out” and drops it back down on the floor. Someone else will be right behind them to scoop it up, and if they are interested they’ll put in their pocket and check out the website on the back! That’s the great thing about this strategy. This is also something that can be duplicated because it isn’t hard for anyone on your team to drop a card on the street. Just be careful not to go over board and leave a trail.  If you’re feeling bold stick around and get a video of someone picking it up…it’ll be great for marketing purposes. :)

Up to now this has been a success for those who have tried it.  So get your drop cards and start generating leads on auto-pilot. It is an excellent marketing tactic and a sure way to be remembered by potential prospects!

What Is A Funded Proposal – Can It Really Help You Succeed in Your MLM Business?

November 17, 2010 9 comments

A lot of people have been asking me lately to break down the concept behind having a funded proposal and if having a funded proposal can really help  you succeed in your MLM business. So let’s take a minute to dig deep and lay out what they are and how they work.

Funded proposals are found in a number of internet businesses and a funded proposal is essential if you plan to raise the much needed cash for your Internet Network Marketing Business. To keep it totally simple, a funded proposal allows you to set up an automated system which will generate upfront money for you very quickly which you can use to PAY FOR your marketing and the promotion of your business , while your MLM business is growing.

Now we all know that 95% of the people we introduce our business opportunity to are going to say NO WAY! What a funded proposal allows you to do is provide products or services to those that say NO to your business (i.e. a targeted market of internet marketers, network marketers, and business entrepreneurs) which creates sales and cashflow which you can use to continue to build and market your own MLM business.

MLMers know that it is not easy to build a down line and that it takes a lot of time, money and effort to build a substantial network marketing business.  Advertising, marketing materials hotel expenses for meetings and trainings, just to name a few, are necessary to grow your team and all cost money.

Here is a Video on Funded Proposals  and What They Can Do To Help You Succeed In Your Own MLM Biz…Enjoy!
