610 WTVN POST: Introduction To Social Media, Blogging and 2.0 Stuff.

This is a special post for those people that are listening in to the radio deli on NewsTalk 610 WTVN.   Welcome to the blog, for those that are getting here from google or wherever.   Glad you’re here.

Web 2.0 is made up a combination of tools that helps you tell your story online, and to bring more of your personality online.   You can reconnect with people that you know, you can connect with your customers, and you can easily tell your story with words, pictures and video online.

The biggest opportunity there is for author originated content.   You are telling your own story.  You’re being real.  You’re being yourself, and real people love it that.  The biggest mistake people make is to try to be all things to all people, to not let their real personality come through online.  You won’t win if you’re not yourself.

I make my living on the web, doing everything from helping people get online and teaching the selling e-books to building websites.   All of the stuff I do is easy.  I’m not particularly technical.  You don’t have to be to do an amazing job online, to find all the opportunity that is there for you.  You just have to find a way to tell your story.  If you do the best job on video, great.  If you do the best job in writing?  Great.  If you do the best job just causally putting your observations out there on Twitter?  Great.

People are craving authentic, real voices right now.   And you’ve got a chance to be that voice for them, to connect, to hustle.  To find the people that need what you do, and to serve at the highest level possible.

I’ve created a ‘getting started,’ newsletter with a little bit of homework each week that will take you from a beginner to someone that’s profitable on the web.  I’m giving it away, free, if you give me your email, and name in the box below:
