Social Media Comes of Age
Filed Under (Facebook, Relationship Marketing, Social Marketing, Viral Traffic) by Traffic Guru on 03-09-2009
There is a giant project going down and you probably don’t even know about it. If you’ve been on Facebook at all you’ve probably heard about it but if not you undoubtedly are hearing about it here for the first time.
It’s called social traffic and I’m fortunate to be one of the roughly 30 experts involved in this social media campaign shaping and implementing company.
You have a chance to be a part of it. You get access to FREE training AND the experience of participating in the campaign which is how we learn as humans…by doing.
Remember the ancient Chinese proverb “Tell me and I’ll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I’ll understand.”
So you get to be involved so you can understand.
Also, it’s very cool because it’s a completely virtual company. You don’t have to travel anywhere other than to your computer chair and type in the web address.
It’s a collection of heavy and expert social media users building a massive social media tribe all moving in unison toward 1 common goal.
You have to have a small active tribe to get the ball rolling. The greatest movements in history started with less than 1% of the population deciding to band together and make positive improvements.
With today’s technology and the popular social media sites it’s possible to meet highly quality, dedicated and expertly knowledgeable people willing to all work toward a common goal.
I can tell you I’ve not met even 1 of my collaborators in person. It’s all been through the connecting power of the internet.
The way I know most of them is through Facebook, some of them through Skype, and a few others through our Twitter connections.
Where most of the business training in Internet marketing training products fall through is the law of numbers. It’s been proven time and again that 90% of people never break off the proverbial “shrink wrap” off the product.
This also applies to digital products because only about 10% of the buyers take the time to open, read through, and implement what it says.
You’ve probably been disappointed by trainings before due to lack of implementation. I know I have.
Without implementation absolutely nothing happens and that’s why you see so many people whining and complaining on the forums that “this system or that system didn’t work for me.”
That’s what’s so cool about the social traffic community we’re building.
Each of these roughly 30 experts is creating a training module based on their specific area or site of expertise which will be housed in a members section of the website.
You’ll have access to the top 30 experts operating on the bleeding edge of social media.
The coolest thing is you’ll be able to get this training for free.
So you’re probably asking “what’s the catch?”
This is training you can’t buy anywhere else and is of extremely high quality so why are we giving it away?
The simple answer is we’re not. We’re just not charging any money for it.
The way you qualify to receive this training is by you pledging your commitment of roughly 7 hours per week to be a participant in our initial campaign launch which will revolve around the Earth Day Birthday Charity event.
Social media success is all about networking and getting collaborative participation. Nothing happens without it.
This is where lots of the so-called “social media gurus” trainings miss the boat. They don’t tell you their success is due to their 1,000+ Twitter followers. Or their 1,000+ YouTube channel subscribers.
And the fact that the most active and loyal members of their Twitter or YouTube tribe votes up and talks about their content virally pushing it out to their friends. That’s the real power and to big this size tribe takes time, effort and persistence.
You’ve probably seen or heard about the Earth Day Birthday event before because it’s been going on for longer than 14 years and is fairly well-established.
But we’re going to bring a new spin on it using the power of social media and getting people virally talking about the event.
You’ll be a participant each step of the way seeing how we use the specific sites and what steps we take to garner massive attention in the marketplace.
You get active participation and real-time training.
And of course, after the initial campaign is over you’ll be participating with us in future campaigns but in the meantime you’ll be able to apply the knowledge you gain from the experience of actually doing it to your own business so you can make money right out of the gate.
And that’s the biggest benefit you’ll get from being a part of this and dedicating your seven hours per week. The campaign is scheduled to complete in April. So you’re looking at a roughly 4 to 8 week commitment and clear cut experiental training.
You’ll be given a mentor and you’ll have a weekly call with him and about 10 other members of your team. You get a mentor and will be part of a weekly training call for planning and question answering.
Of course, if you fail to do your activity for that week your access to the members training area will be shut off. However, we do have to keep you honest so if you don’t meet your activity level for the week your account credentials will be turned off and you won’t have access to anymore free training.
Definitely, want to have full disclosure here and give you the potential downside.
That’s the trade-off.
Because this training has tremendous value we’re asking for some human capital in return instead of money and to my knowledge this has never been done before so you had the opportunity to get in on this groundbreaking and potentially once-in-a-lifetime chance at the very start.
Usually, to get this level of training content you have to pay $5,000 - $10,000. But here you’re getting the content AND the real-time real world experience which makes the content powerful and useful. And you get it for zero dollars out of your pocket.
I don’t want to hype you up because that’s not what this is about.
I don’t want to put any pressure on you but we can only accept a limited number of members because of the hand holding and weekly time commitment with your mentor. And it’s not about pressuring you to do something your heart isn’t into.
So now it’s up to you. I’ve laid out the opportunity and we can only accept a limited number of students into the mentoring spots.
Decide whether this opportunity is right for you and then get into contact with me.
I’ll look forward to seeing you on the other side…the insider side of social media winners.
