Grasping The Power of Web2.0 and Social Network Marketing

The marketing revolution we have come to know as Social Network Marketing is one of vast potential and opportunity to market your business exponentially.

To take advantage of what you have in your hands don’t be making the mistake of thinking online social networking as a toy or a hit-and-run marketing tool or effort.

It is real and it is here to stay even as it develops right before our eyes.

SM is about building relationships just like if you were there f2f. (I wonder at the people who gather in 1000’s on followers) Look for people and companies with common ground or your target prospects. Hobbies, interests, geography. Then start connecting with your “target” though forums, groups and (yes) blogs.

In SM you need to take advantage of opportunities to share your knowledge. Look for all the opportunities to offer your expertise and knowledge to everyone you can in a nonabrasive way. Hi-touch/Soft-sell. Once you have begun to build relationships and connections in this way your prominence in online networks and thus your business will grow.

Larson note: It is along slow process to stand out from the crowd. Make your territory (of knowledge) and hold on to it. Be the expert that people look for on a topic. You are the king or queen of your area of expertise. Push your MySpace, your nings, your MerchantCircle, your twitter relationships as you tip toe through the art of the soft sell.

Yet, if you don’t have the patience to devote months to the effort, back out now and don’t waste your time.
