I see where you're coming from, but it's hard not to still consider the title mostly a joke when, for every legitimate expert, there are a dozen people who don't have the slightest clue what they're doing yet still call themselves experts.
This is right up my alley for sure, as you know. Going to try to get it on my iPod for a car ride later this evening.
A few minutes in and really enjoying this! Thanks Michele...
Great suggestions! I would place a lot of emphasis on the use of images (and video) as that content definitely gets more interaction than a typical link/text update.
We do make choices about who we interact with. We also choose which groups we join or decline. If a person chooses to opt in to a group where the singular expectation/obligation is one of reciprocal sharing of content, then that person should hold to that expectation...or openly release themselves from the agreement as I said.
Absolutely great post, Annie. Your posts are always a) Motivating b) Increasing productivity or c) Both. Keep it up!
@AngelaJordan1 That's true in most cases, but if someone agrees to share and reciprocate, they should hold to that agreement or formally, openly release themselves from the agreement.
Great show this week! Can't wait for the next one :)
Adding it to my calendar as we speak :) The topics are right up my alley...I can definitely see value in this!
Really enjoyed the show today! I think I'll make this a regular listen from now on :)
That sounds like a great idea and it takes a good person to set out an initiative like this. I hope everything goes well...happy to help any way I can!
@prosperitygal @jonathanfields Always enjoy a mention of Jonathan Fields! Read his book right before starting my business and it really opened my eyes on how to deal with the stresses of uncertainty...helped me make that leap even though I had no clue what I was really doing.
That was a REALLY interesting listen! Business has definitely changed and we're in the midst of a marketing revolution in my opinion, which is going to cause even more giant changes over the next few years. Love what you've got going on here!
Great points, Michele. If you're on social media enough, you're guaranteed to see some crude comments from trolls. Typically ignoring them is all it takes, and framing their behavior in such a way as you encourage is a good way to control your own emotions and refrain from responding.
@Ari Herzog You saw the tweet. But something else besides simply seeing it made you click the link. Something else besides simply seeing this blog made you an RSS subscriber. You are a "converted visitor," not just a visitor...which was the main point of this post.
Great discussion guys. Always enlightening and nice to see a hometown name in Jason...
Meanwhile employees went hungry! agh I'll try not to be too hard on Walmart, they make an effort. Cool post though...always nice to see social media put to great social causes.
Great content as always. The ego-capital subject is particularly interesting...I need to look more into that. Seems like a cool concept that could be helpful in the future.
Great post! Knowing how to talk to top management is a daunting task at times, especially if you don't have any strategy in doing so. I agree that measuring actual consumer behavior that bring in money is the most crucial aspect of convincing management they need to think seriously about social media. Telling your boss you're "creating buzz" doesn't exactly cut it these days...maybe a couple years ago, but the scenery is changing insanely quickly right now.
Nice suggestions. Haven't heard of these other than Pinterest, so I'll definitely be checking them out.
