One of the keys to social media 'Attraction' marketing is drawing people in by establishing yourself as a real person and establishing trust right away through your profile.
I just saw this cool video full of great tips and decided to share it here.
Now, I am guilty of not having a very robust profile myself, but I am planning on implementing some of what I have learned here in the near future. For now, I will consider my profiles as 'works in progress'.

It is a People Business
I have been spending the last week or so trying to establish the best way to succeed in network marketing. It all started with all of the attention to social media and the correct way to inspire attraction. So many people think that the way to prosper through social media is by marketing the old way; this is completely wrong and will lead to people tuning you out. The old way involves blasting messages and really getting the thing that you are selling in the face of as many people as possible.
Through one of my Facebook connections, I was introduced to a book by Michael Dlouhy titled Success in 10 Steps. It is a great little primer on the things that really matter in this business. Those things are people. That book introduced me to the color principle of personalities. I automatically became very curious about this concept but did not want to spend money on an eBook to learn more about it.
So, through another site I came across an audio download of the color system. The price for this one was perfect because it was free. So, I wanted to share this with you all. I hope that you too are able to gain some value for your business and your relationships from this audio. Download it here This Audio is titled The Magic of Colors by Jerry Clark

Translating Reality TV to Social Media
Why are so many people (myself included) enthralled by Reality TV? The answer is really quite simple and it translates amazingly well to today's popularity of Social Media. I want to help you think about how you can empower your own social media mission by adapting some of the basic Reality TV truths and using these to bolster your own attraction.
The number one reason that people watch, is the fantasy of gaining personal status. On television, ordinary people can become so important that millions will watch them. Sometimes it is a genuine likability that certain people have and yes, sometimes it is their infuriating nature or stupidity. But whatever the case, millions of people tune in every episode to see what these ordinary people will do next. It is obvious that people fantasize about status on social media as well. Just think for a moment about the obsession some people have over the number of friends and followers they have.
Another reason people watch is for the allegiances that are built and the reality that allies will betray one another. If you want to use social media as a building block for your business, I would suggest not betraying your allies. Building allegiances though is really what it is all about. People will gravitate towards you when they feel as though they can relate to you on some level. Building allegiances on social media will lead to success regardless of what type of business you are in.
You may be wondering how you develop this attraction to create allies. That leads to my last reason that people watch reality TV. People want good water cooler conversation. Remember this when you post and try to provide interesting and beneficial content.

Quick Intro To My Network Marketing Company
I have recently joined Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing and couldn't be happier with that decision. The company is doing incredibly well and the support that I have received has been top notch.
What I liked about fortune is that it is a services company that is geared toward providing residual income for a lifetime.
