Tribeologyblog.com – Episode 841 – Are You Busy? Read a Book!

Tribeology: Learn It. Do It. Profit. Decide who you want to work with, attract them, and sell them things they want to buy! It really is that simple.

Monday: Subject Matter Expert

Quote: “Never become so much of an expert that you stop gaining expertise.”

Are you busy?  The common answer is YES!

Now with busy comes a very important responsibility… yes, a responsibility of being busy is…  You need to keep learning.

OMG, seriously?

YES!

One pillar of the 5c’s of Tribeology is to be credible.  Credibility allows people (your tribe) to know, like, and trust you. And this is accomplished externally by providing content that your tribe wants and needs…

But it also comes from you, as a leader, being an expert in your field.

You can exhibit this leadership with third party endorsements such as awards and degrees… but this is great, a moment frozen in time.

For example,  I have a degree in Marketing…. but it predates the Internet… dang, that makes me feel really old, and it’s not entirely true.  We had Gopher (email) I think there may have been a world wide web, but my first use of Netscape was when at my first job 4 months after I graduated!

I don’t think that made me sound any younger.

But here’s my point.  Although I acquired my formal marketing knowledge before the internet… doesn’t mean I can stop learning.  Now I enjoy marketing so reading books and magazines, watching videos, attending conferences and testing new skills is fun.  But it’s also super valuable in being able to teach others.

This is what you need to do, too.  You are ultra busy in your normal day to day activities, but keep learning.  Grab a book and start reading… OR my hint is to start listening to an audio book!

What ever it takes, keep learning and keep sharing what you learn.  This will build confidence as the leader of your tribe.

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode 812 – Don’t Forget the Batteries!

Quote: Ideas can be life-changing. Sometimes all you need to open the door is just one more good idea. ~Jim Rohn

Tuesday: Content and Consistency

 

Much of my energy in writing this blog is to help you find your reason “why” to share content.

The reason I focus on this is because when you’re sitting at your desk, alone, with orders, bills, and other things… it’s hard to carve out time to write a post.  You know you should, but it’s also easier to not do it.

Right?!

So one good reason to provide content your customers like… and make it rewarding for you is to understand that sometimes, the information you provide can help the reader make a decision that changes their path in life.  I’m not going to say “change their life” that’s a little far reaching, although it can happen…

But your business is in operation to serve.  Even if you think “it’s just a gift store – this is a little dramatic” – hear me out.

Let’s use the gift store example.  Someone walks into your gift store and buys a baby gift – you are serving them.  They are buying the gift as a memento of their personality to share their thoughts.  You are serving them, especially if you make it convenient by gift wrapping OR suggesting other items (like batteries) – as small as this may be… it’s a big deal that you care.  Have you ever bought a gift or received one and not had the proper batteries. OH so Frustrating!

Back to content.

It can do the same thing as remembering the batteries.

My fall back example is typically potty training.  You have a tired parent at 3am searching for the best (or any) idea to get their kid to stop wetting the bed… they come across your article and info product… you are serving them.  Your ONE good idea can change their journey!

Kind words in a post… a reminder of events this weekend… even your sale.  This all serves your customer!  It’s important to share your knowledge, even when you’re tired, or think the info is not important…

Have you ever been flipping through your social media feed only to get distracted by one post that makes you cry, laugh, or think?

YES!

This is the reason you are providing content.

You are not here to go through a check list… your here to serve!

Today try keeping this mindset as you make the most amazing content filled post you can… imagine the reader and their reaction.

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode #788 – How to Create Magic With Your Tribe…

Quote: “Two key qualities in life: Discipline & Consistency.”

Tuesday: Content & Consistency

 

It’s one thing to understand the concept… it’s another to do the work.   For example, I understand the concept of doing a back flip on the balance beam.  I can watch YouTube videos for a step-by-step instruction on how to successfully complete a back flip on the beam.

But Guess What?

That does NOT mean I can do a back flip on the beam.

It does mean that I have a better appreciation when I watch gymnastic competitions.

SOOOOOO how about you?

Do you understand the concept of the Infinity Marketing Machine?  You build a tribe of people that “know, like, and trust you”.  You create great content they want and you deliver it to them consistently.

It’s that simple!

OR is it… yes it’s simple… but it’s not easy.

You need to put in the work!  It takes time and effort to crank up the machine and even more time and dedication to keep the machine running.

I love today’s quote – discipline and consistency are the two basic principles of making your Infinity Marketing Machine work!

Today – focus on your discipline.  Make a commitment to yourself to provide that content regularly and it will pay off!  You will create a tribe that wants to hang around with you and that’s when the real magic happens.

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode 776 – Make Your Content Last

Quote: “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.”

Tuesday: Content and Consistency

 

Are you working hard?  We all like to think we work hard… but here’s a scoop. You’ve got to work harder.

I’m not talking about your physical output today.

I’m talking about your planning for tomorrow.  And this is a biggie… if you spend your time creating posts and throwing them on Facebook will people find them next week.

Nope.

People don’t look on Facebook or Twitter or Instagram for information they seek.

Start spending time on your website!

Yes… I’m a strong supporter of email for your social side.  However, think about this.

Create a webpage about your product — then send an email that links to it.  You get the benefit of the email to your list AND you get the benefit of adding content to your website.

This is a fantastic way to work harder.  You put your efforts into the never ending content storage facility that is your website.

For example, let’s say you have a jewelry store.  This weekend is the local festival and you will be having a sale.  You’ll easily create a post to welcome people to your store for the sale…

BUT

What if you create a page on your site that talks about the festival.  People that shop at your store also like the festival and they like that YOU like the festival. Now when you write the post about your sale – you link to the page you created about the festival.  It’s a win-win.

Now here’s the fun part — this page about the festival becomes a searchable part of your website and it’s always there – anytime you mention the festival – you have a “ready to go” page about it!

Sure it’s “harder” to make the page about the festival – but it’s a FANTASTIC use of your time.

So today, make a list of 20 topics to create pages for – anything from safety or gift ideas, to festivals and your business history – just create the list and write!

Have fun with this content booster.

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode 771 – Why It’s OK to Learn as You Go

Quote: “We learn the way on the way.”

Thursday: Infinity Customers

 

Are you afraid?  Does it make you nervous to jump into email marketing?

Fear not!  Just start!

The crazy thing about this quote is that it’s true!  We learn our way as we go along.  Sure we need some sort of plan and training.  I mean there are some technical skills to acquire and laws to understand…

BUT

Much of what we are all doing is an art.  It’s trial and error.  However, with email you own your list. That’s what makes the “trial and error” acceptable.

Rallying and entertaining a tribe is fun because you’re attracting people you want to be around.  But more important is the opportunity you have to work with them tomorrow, the next day and so on…

You control the message you’ll send them AND you control vehicle.  When you create a list for email you’re in control, this is so much different from Facebook… you don’t control Facebook.  If they change a rule, dude, you can be out of business.

When you create an email list you send to everyone… now that doesn’t mean 100% will open, some messages will land in junk boxes… but you “own” the list.  I selected to say “own” in quotations because, while the name is on your list, if you’re hanging out with me we adopt a working philosophy that it’s a privilege to communicate with our list.

Anyway…

My point is this… start to view your list as an ATM.  When you respect your followers and then spoil them by providing great information they desire… dang, you get to offer them products over and over and over.  If you want to raise a little money, offer a product… this really works.

So while you might feel like you’re learning as you go… guess what… you are!

(and that’s OK)

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode 769 – What Does Your Tribe Need?

Quote: “If you’re waiting around to make the perfect content, you’ll be waiting around forever”

Tuesday: Content & Consistency

 

Are you stuck?  Have you convinced yourself that you’ve “got nothing to write” or “I’m burned out”

HA

Today’s quote spoke to me… I’m sure it’s tough to be a perfectionist, I’m far from one… but I do know this.

How do I know this?

Just read any post I’ve ever written. There are spelling errors, grammatical errors… the list goes on and on (no need to point them out, I know they’re there!)  But, the thing is… if I waited until it was perfect I would never press “publish”.

If I waited until it was perfect I would be scared to death to ever press “publish” and you know the problem with that…?  The problem is YOU would never get to read what I have to say… and that’s wrong.

The content you provide is a gift.  It’s an amazing gift for your tribe.  The moment you convince yourself “I’ve got nothing to write” that’s the moment you need to stop, sit, and reevaluate your leadership.  You are the leader and your tribe needs you…so what information do they need right now?

When you answer that question you’ll have plenty to write about!

Stop worrying about perfection, and start focusing on the needs of your tribe.

Today – create a post that your tribe needs!
