Social Media Tips For 2014


Well 2 years ago if I had to choose an industry to get involved with social media was it! 
American Dream Corvette





Last year over 500 million tweets were sent every day,   350 million photos uploaded by Facebook users every month, it’s a FACT social media will continue to fly. 

If you are a company and don't have a social media firm looking out for you better get that GOING OUT OF BUSINESS SIGN handy.
These are the best lessons I learned in 2013
Invest In Your Personal Brand Online 


Twitter exposure over 22 million in 3 days









One thing I have never been afraid to do from the second I turned on a computer.


Social media is one of the most important tools for building a personal and professional brand online. 

97% of all recruiters use LinkedIn as a part of their recruiting efforts and a few companies have even started using online data to determine credit-worthiness. 
In fact I was approached 4 times last year for a 80k salary up to 135k but personally I would rather make more than that on my own.
These are the top 4 I came up with based on my massive success
Made over 100,000 on fiverr.com
Become A Content Sharing Pro 
Top influencers have a common trait: we create and share a in your face content strategy that helps us build awareness,  credibility, improve site traffic, and even boost SEO.  

To build an engaged audience, try incorporating these three tips into your content strategy.
Multiple blog articles ranking 1 on google and getting 50,000 or more views


Showcase Your Influence Offline 
After you've created a plan for your online brand, time to showcase your expertise and influence offline. 
Public speaking is one of the most vital skills to take your offline influence to the next level.
KRED INFLUENCER OF THE MONTH
Not even just that but become a champion off the computer perhaps tennis or target shooting show that you are multidimensional  I wont the Orlando tennis championship 5 times..Like I said not a shy guy.




Take Your Social Presence To The Next Level 

Twitter is one of the best platforms for real-time conversations. Twitter set a new record in 2013 for tweets-per-second with 143,199 tweets sent per second by users.
Average month of 20,000
Every second thousands of conversations are happening if you've ever wondered how certain influencers stand out more than others and have thousands of engaged followers, it comes down to consistency and finding balance.

So 2014 for me personally will be another record year financially  on the courts and has a father. I love life.
If you would like to learn more I will be putting on a class to do just that. MY CLASS 200 pre-booked

Now one thing I can tell you is I have seen so many talented people come and go and come and go over and over talent isn't enough it takes work ethic a lot of it 16 to 18 hr days if need be. So if you think you are to good for that safe your time.

You see because someone like me who does have the talent will also put in the 120 hr week.
Good Luck!

Two Words That Will Change the Way You Advertise


Two Words That Will Change the Way You Advertise

Not all advertising strategies are created equal, with some being more effective than others. A true understanding of your niche means a true understanding of what advertising methods work best and knowing precisely where to place your ads to get the most out of them. 



The truth is this: skilled marketers are more familiar with their target audience than they are with their neighbors. You won’t see a good marketer place a banner ad for pizza on a site that promotes weight loss, right? Not unless they like losing money!


Now what if I told you that one of the most effective forms of advertising is not only free, but can also have great SEO benefits? Think outside the box. I’m not talking about banner ads or expensive radio commercials, so put your wallet away for a second. 

What do you see on a daily basis? What do you see each time you log onto Facebook or Pinterest? What are the most shared items on the Internet? You may want to sit down for this because the answer has been right under your nose the entire time! Two magic words:


Memes / eCards!
Wow, really? Memes and eCards are EXTREMELY effective in creating backlinks to your site through a natural sharing process. They’re simple. They’re free. They’re fast. And they work. 

Let’s look at a few tips on how to bring it all together:
1)      Follow the familiar template of the meme or eCard.
2)      Include your site name if appropriate. Brand recognition is key! You can even include the URL or company logo.
3)      Keep your message classy. Some memes and eCards push the limits of political correctness. They can hurt your image just as easily as they can help it.
4)      Keep your message consistent. Make it about what you do as a company or how you can help the individual. Be creative and relevant.
5)      Put the pictures on your site and make them easy to share. That’s a big one!
6)      Create a humor board(s) on Pinterest or albums on other networks. Pin your images with your link and your description (more on good description etiquette in a later article).
7)      Name your picture appropriately so that it’s keyword searchable. Ex) Futurama-Fry-Monopolize-Social-Media.jpg
8)      Don’t forget about placing them on Facebook, Google +, Twitter, Flicker, Instagram etc.


It’s that easy! Keep in mind that some websites don’t allow this type of use with their eCards unless first paying for a campaign, so make sure you read the terms and conditions. 

Making your own eCard is a good alternative since anyone can freely use a small colored rectangle with a picture and a caption. Below are some example memes we put together to give you a better idea. 

Don’t forget to share them!

10 ways to make Instagram profitable.

10 ways to make Instagram profitable

10 ways to make Instagram profitable .

10 ways to make Instagram profitable

.

As Instagramers we have to be aware of Instagram reliability and necessity of a healthy business case figures.

If we want to go on enjoying, as users, our favorite entertainment App we have to know the potential profitability behind the tool…

If not, no business, no updated version, no service, no future, no fun…

But there is many ways to use the platform for your own interest too!

.

Instagram Founders, Mikey Krieger and Kevin Systrom recently answered our question at Instagramers.com but they also answered TechCrunch Tv! You can see the whole interview here.

.

In this video Interview,the TechCrunch journalist asked the usual questions that every single journalist asks when meeting a new “social media hype”. Where will the business be? The profitability, in one word.

.


Where is Instagram business profitability today?

.

In my opinion, Kevin answered clearly and concisely leaving no doubt that they are already conscious of the big challenge they have to face. They have ideas about what they could do to make the whole business sustainable and why not largely profitable?

.


“Instagram is a new Entertainment Platform” and “Advertising is visual, photography too”…

.

They are right! And they must have something in mind. At instagramers.com we tried to think about all the possibilities the platform offers.

.

As an Instagram “Heavy User” I may suffer a sight distortion or an IG Optimism Addiction but there, it clearly matters where Instagram could play a big role in the near future.

The more the platform will improve communication feeds and data internal processes, the more the users will get comfortable in using it and will understand the importance of using hashtags, geolocation etc… The result will be a platform with strong assets to face the next steps.

..

.

10 ways to Make Instagram profitable!

..



1) Instagram Photography, Apps, Art, Frames, Fun and Merchandising.

.

The most obvious of all of them. Instagram is a question of Photography and the App Is already a way to develop businesses simply around Photo Edition Apps! The Platform is the perfect place for promoting different apps!

Plus all tools existing yet like sharing, printing using different supports that Instagramers works with.

Many companies have already launched Webtools and services around IG. Check them here like Printing Postcard, posters, stickers…

.

..

..

2) Instagram and Information.

.

That’s really Obvious too… Benchmark Capital recently invested many (7) millions dollars in Instagram with Jack Dorsey among the group of investors. It’s not a coincidence.

.

One day, Information met the most important e-volution in the recent history when the main Media and communication gurus understood people with their mobile were located almost everywhere and ready to inform permanently (with no cost!). Recent disaster in Japan was the proof of the Massive effect of a recent born Instagram.

.

As Guntenbergh started printing newspapers with black ink, he then incorporated drawings and then after printing introduced massive color printings… Twitter started with short 140 character Texts and will probably complement it with graphic content information in the near future…

.

.


3) Instagram and Advertising.

.

Who says Communication Medias means Audience

Who says audience means advertising interest for announcers and media planners… And Instagram showed yet in several contests the huge feedback from users to promotions and integrated offers.

.

Instagram will definitely be a targeted way to show advertising to users depending on where, what their interests are. Simply with sponsor links powered by Google, Yahoo, Msn or their own system why not?

Instagram can help promoting a restaurant, an hotel but a massive sales brand too and curiously very few of them are already on this network. The nick “Nike” belongs to a guy called Nicolas!

They are probably working on it already on it, in San Francisco.

See here 10 Early adopters brands in TheNextweb.com

.S

.

4) Instagram, friendship, relationships and work.

.

All users agree that Instagram is a much more powerful tool in terms of sensitivity and first approach by other users than Twitter, Linkedin and even Facebook sometimes.

.

All my IG friends share with me much more than links and info.

They share part of their lives, their creativity, their feelings,their intimacy …

And sometimes I hardly know their name behind a nick.

.

And without a doubt it is a perfect way to find people with the same Interests and passions and make good friends (just have a look to our first Instameets good atmosphere!)

That´s why our Instagramers Networks grew so fastly with more than 50 groups all over the world! Cause People want to meet! Not only virtually!!

And some of them,  why not find the One. A boyfriend, a girlfriend… Big business today!

It may also be a way to search and discover people with talent. A tool for recruiting and a way for people to promote their professional side in an original way.

.

..

5) Instagram, Tips about Trips and Travel.

.

How many of you dreamt of going to Switzerland seeing pics of @crisss or discover the beauty of New York streets with @richnyc, Paris with @nathparis, Costa Rica with @ticalinda and her husband @poppad or Tokyo with @sweetarts.

.

Instagram is a powerful tool to promote places you would never think about visiting. This year I just was thinking about visiting Cyprus or maybe Ireland!

.

Just because @suzyyf and @rockizta show it so beautifully ! Soon the Tourism Offices of many countries will take advantage of this opportunity and Airline companies and tour operators too…

.

For the first time you can find easily in your mobile, always at hand, a graphic information about places without any commercial distortion and leaflets!

.

When you look for Pics in Instagram you know you will see the places has there really are. The places just as Instagramers lived them, loved them and photographed them.

..

.


6) Instagram, ecommerce and Geolocation.

.

E-commerce has been the big focus of Internet sustainability these last few years.

In 2001 nobody would have bet on it but today companies are earning money on the Net. Amazon, EBay but new concepts of resellers like Groupon, venteprivee.com are synonymous of incontestable success and highly profitable gains.

Not only companies but people too will soon find ways to promote their sales. Offering second hand cars, furniture, antiques, stamps for collectors through the platform… Mobility is the future of e-commerce.

.

I’m in the airport right now writing this post and I don’t need a PC anymore!

.

Needless to say, Geolocation will be part of it too.

In my opinion once again, the impact will be more powerful in IG than in Foursquare because the first meaning is not making a report around a place. It’s just making a nice pic and showing it to the community. Reporters everywhere once again. Pics, pics, pics… @Starbucks have been almost as brilliant as in Foursquare and are very dynamic in Instagram posting offers, happy hours and sales!

I want to see a place close to me or the nice restaurant where I will take my fiancé to have dinner!

.

.

7) Instagram and Movies, Actors, Music, Singers…


There are very few “Show Bizz” people at the moment but the power of the platform is huge.

Not only Brands, People like SnoopDog or some politician like @PatxiLopez in Spain already have Instagram profiles and use it as a friendliest Twitter but there are still only a few at the moment. And Jack Dorsey knows it as well.

A Few months ago I helped a friend, @pabloalmansa, great professional “fine art” photographer to launch his IG profile. Today he has over close to 6.000 followers. Thousands of people who would never have known him without IG!

Not Only Art Fair like Photography Art Fair but also Paintings, Architecture and every kind of Art can be promote through Instagram.

Hollywood, Music and entertainment industries will soon understand too the strong capability to promote their businesses, publish new launches or show live events like the Grammys already did.

.

.

8 ) Instagram, Art, Learning and training.

.

There is no doubt that Instagram could soon be a way to house millions of tutorials of simple things. You could tell me…

What about YouTube? Yes it’s true but the user experience is different.

.

Here, You can ask a question in each pic of a Step by Step Tutorial to the stream owner like #howto etc… Like the one here beside explaining how to edit a pic but could be how to make a pizza!

.

Could there be tutorials around Iphoneography and learning how to take pics, which new tools exists in new editing and pic apps, and with graphic examples! Tomorrows Tutorials for simple things.

Why not teach your children their first vocabulary with drawings and images!

.

.

9) Instagram as a factor of social stability, countries decisions and choices.

.

I’m probably an idealist and positive guy but I’m convinced that one day not only Instagram but all social networks will be important.

.

Not only in Obama’s and Hillary’s Campaigns but in all the voting processes.

Through kind of “secured” social media and “single sign in system” and the decision will be shared and taken by groups. The information around parties and candidates will be clearer and in general Internet will bring transparency.

.

In the image besides you can observe this week demonstration in the center of Madrid, largely covered in Instagram with more than 600 pictures at the moment on tag related too social Movement called #SpanishRevolution or #acampada (campsite)

.

And let´s not forget that Social Networks will bring cultures and people closer together and will be a real factor of social stability, solidarity and sense of humanity. Instagram is not only a window to other users’ private lives but also for friendship breaking frontiers, languages and extremism.

..

.

10) And the last one, the Tenth, I will keep it SECRET!

.

… Because it’s an idea I have had for many years now and it may be a very nice project to lead and launch!!! Sorry.

.

As you see there are many, many other options for someone to take advantage of Instagram.

For people to have fun, enjoy sharing their lives… And for companies too!

.

Many more came to my mind while I was writing this article but I think the most able to succeed in a first phase are those mentioned above. Probably the instagram team is considering many of these monetization options already.

.

Now the hard work will be to earn money for being the connector in the crossway between people, companies and new businesses opportunities. And not only to attend the show as a mere spectator.

The Secret To My Success




The Secret To My Success

OK SO as many of you know I have spent the last 7 months learning, studying and mastering fiverr
the best I could.

Well my personal system worked out...NOW for the bombshell I kept ALL of my research data and when you find out what it is any of you sellers will foam at the mouth.....

I have spent 2-3 hrs per day writing up spread sheets on the Fiverr categories, off the top of my head, Writing, Music and Video Business. Graphics, Advertising etc up to 15 topics or so.

Now this information has been invaluable to me and is how I stay on stop but I believe in giving back in this world and I have decided to help my friend Dan Tulloh

When I want to see what people look up on google I look at a keyword tool and see that. But when I want to know what people  want to buy or sell on Fiverr, our hands are tied...

Well I am a hungry mother and I want to make money on Fiverr and I wanted to see the numbers..I decided to get all data needed for analysis of my genre

I have the numbers and can say for sure                                                                                
What the bestsellers are on Fiverr in my genre (look at positive count)

What gigs are in  demand and people stay in line to buy them (look at queue count)

What gigs are of interest but need some twist (look at collected/positive ratio)

What gigs need better service (look at negative count)

What gigs I can outperform simply by offering better delivery time (look at popular gigs with high delivery time numbers)

This has been my secret sort and filter gigs to find gold. Add your own twist: from finding keyword density to monitoring gigs’ dynamics!

When I mastered my genre on Fiverr, I HAVE FINALLY decided to help others people do the same for theirs

I have all the main Fiverr categories now who do I help first become rich..... THIS IS THE KEY TO MY 150k a year Fiverr Biz... J
