Wow! Talk about the power of Social Networking! I feel compelled to comment about the GoogleFiber Poll since everyone else is...
Social Media Power created an exciting challenge that had cities engaged in competition against each other: Google is looking to find a “home” for “Google Fiber." The participation of competitive cities and their enthusiasm brought a lot of fun into the mix of things.
See below link to discover what all the buzz was about:
According to the Google website, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook have been the driving platforms that supporters have engaged in for spreading the word. I actually found out about the contest through a LinkedIn Asheville Meeting. Talk about the power of social events and social media!
The following cities are the top running voters: Greenville, SC, Asheville, NC, Duluth, MN, Hilton Head Island, SC, Memphis, TN, Humboldt County, CA, Durham, NC, Petaluma, CA, Greensboro, NC, Kansas City, MO, Topeka, KS, New Orleans, LA, Baton Rouge, LA, Madison, WI, Cincinnati, OH, Tempe, AZ, Grand Rapids, MI, Austin, TX, Lakeland, FL, Atlanta, GA, Oklahoma City, OK, Columbia, MO, Fresno, CA.
Tonight is a comprehensive training on Blogging. If you are a small business or internet marketer and want special tips on blogging, you will find this training of value to your business!
Hope your week has been good. Meant to blog this past week, and found myself learning how to set up landing pages, going to webinars and planting veggies and flowers in the garden.
What a mix! The thing they all have in common? Leverage. I'm leveraging my time for things that will run on auto-pilot. :)
I had the privilege of interviewing Lena Bjorna at the CarbonCopyPro Master Marketing Event, in Boca Raton, FL on March 31, 2010. This is an Article on what Lena shared in the video.
Lena Bjorna shared these valuable tips to successful online marketing regarding “How to Become Successful.”
“In a nutshell, it really all starts with a Decision—a decision that you are going to be successful,” Lena stated.
l. You see yourself as successful.
It’s a vision where you are successful.
2. You attend events held by your company.
You begin to surround yourself with successful people, who have that same mindset of success.
3. You commit to daily activities.
You make the necessary sacrifices in your life on a daily basis to achieve the success you envision for yourself. How? You invest in yourself, and you invest in your business. As you invest in personal development and educate yourself, these daily activities have a compounding effect.
4. You commit to “Doing.”
Take action to achieve the “Be-Do-Have” philosophy. Engage in income-producing action activities, day in and day out. Keep going, keep pressing on, and never give up!
5. You have a big WHY.
If your “Why” or reason for success is big enough, and if your desire is big enough…you will get there.
6. You will receive monetary profit.
These steps result in financial success.
Lena Bjorna graciously shared with me at the Master Marketing Conference her personal steps on “How to Become Successful”. These are the actual activities of top producers. May these successful online marketing tips help you to take your business to the next level!
