How to Build "Quality" Communities on Your Fan Page

The biggest challenge and most often asked question I receive from my clients is how to build "quality" communities on their fan page.

Here's the secret:

Your fan page must be attached to your personal page/friend network.No stand alone fan pages please. As you build your friend network with your target market (key strategy), make a habit of 1-2x a week going into your fan page and "Suggest to friends." See, your main account at FB is your core strategy for building quality communities for your personal and fan pages.

Your True Purpose in Showing Up on Social Media in a Bigger Way

Can we talk? I want you to imagine I am sitting right next you.
I’m sitting at my computer right now reaching out to you via this medium online.  I am here 100%.

So let's get real, ok?

As a business owner, how do you WIN in our "Social Reward" economy?


Is there really a method to the madness of Social Media mania?

You bet. And, it begins with a SAVVY personal brand and strategy.  

Why?  

Because we live in a "social reward" economy.  Engagement is paramount on Social Media to build relationships for business on these virtual platforms.

Powerful story of a personal brand:

Your personal brand works offline, too in magical ways.

Hello everyone!

I may be recommending a training to a select few of you, but my intention in these posts is to educate and expand your mindset about the possibilities of how a personal brand can change the entire experience you have, not only online, but offline. 
 
I've got a good short story about a client who initially had no idea how to define her brand and was very unclear how she served her market. Plus she was confused who exactly was her niche market.
 
She had a positive validation and result at a networking event soon after our personal branding session turning her into a believer about the power of a brand.

What does your brand say about you?

Have you been guessing who you truly are to your market? It all begins with your personal brand and how you show up in your marketing, especially on Social Media.

"If you want to stay relevant and competitive in the coming years – it does not matter if you are in coaching, fitness, speaking, writing, sales, tech, medicine, finance, publishing, event planning – you name it –
you need to develop and grow your brand."

Everyone, EVERYONE needs to start thinking of themselves as a brand.

It is no longer an option; it’s a necessity”

From Plainsville to Hollywood

I'm using my Hollywood Red Carpet days to help you brand YOU. A personal brand can be powerful even outside of Hollywood! So let's take you from Plainsville to Hollywood to illuminate your voice, image and message.

And it all starts from the inside out.

If you are not doing these strategies consistently and some daily, (and I know 100s are not), I've got some not so good news...you are wasting plenty of your precious time, missing tons of opportunities, and leaving boat loads of money on the table.

A Secret to Success in Social Media is "Be Resourceful!"

Does this scenario sound familiar?

You are looking for a specific niche or industry to connect to. You search for that name in the search box on Facebook. Let's say your target market is women interior designers who cater to upscale-high end homeowners who are seeking custom made closets and cabinetry.

You enter the name "Interior Designers" and maybe add a specific location or specialty. What comes up much like Google is fan & group pages and people that match that name. You find several Interior Designers and go "like" their page.
