Friday: Big Money Small Change

 

Quote: “Success is about spending your life in your own, unique way.”

 

Welcome to the day after Thanksgiving – also known as Black Friday… well, I want to jump back one day and talk about being fearlessly authentic – which by the way we have an entrepreneur motivational line in our store with that motto!

So what does it mean to be fearlessly authentic?  It means to be true to yourself… and one amazing way to do this is in your posts.

The goal is to give your tribe the ability to understand the personality of your business and the best way to really understand this concept is to focus on holiday posts.

Here are the first 4 that popped up on my Instagram feed… they ALL are simply a “Happy Thanksgiving” Message… but look at how unique each one is to their business.

Whether it’s gift items, doggy day care – or my favorite the dog groomer… each takes the time to add their own flair to their message.

This is a very simple way to increase the loyalty of your tribe… and as we know, loyalty does bring money to you.  Not an instant connection but you need to build the tribe and the way to build them is to share your personality – so as the holidays approach – think of how you can share your unique business personality with your customers!

If you love the “Be Fearlessly Authentic” idea – it’s Black Friday so here’s a reward for reading this far….

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode #836 – How to Keep Posts Simple.

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.

Tuesday: Content and Consistency

 

Quote: Don’t turn off your audience with too much information, keep it simple!

 

BARGAIN:  If you act today you will get three free kittens with the purchase of one puppy if the puppy has three black spots on his tail but only if the third spot is in direct line with the other two, if however it forms a triangle you get two kittens.  If it’s three spots all over his back then you only get one kitten.

Whaaaat?

As we approach this upcoming BFCM celebration – (Black Friday Cyber Monday) – let’s take a moment to pause and discuss too much information.

When crafting an offer, keep it simple.  Your goal is to make it as easy as possible for the customer to say “yes”.

Buy one puppy and get three kittens

Now, I’m not sure who would want three kittens AND a puppy — but someone out there will say yes.

Same goes for theinformation in your posts… it’s hard to hold back information – sometimes it’s easier for your followers.

A “top 10” list might be better as a top three… or top five…

Why?

Well, you want the information consumed.

It’s like this post… do you really want to read a large chunk of text?  I know I don’t!

That’s why I often leave my “paragraphs” at two sentences… max!  And the reason for that is… you’re probably reading on your phone.  It’s easier to scroll versus read read read and ultimately quit.

Therefore, if you have “lots” of information to share, break it up… over a couple days, posts, or even paragraphs.  The goal is to consume the information and the best way to do that is…

Keep it simple!

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode #805 – Here’s How You Have Hard Work AND Cheating

Quote: “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard!” – Tim Notke

Tuesday: Content and Consistency

 

Do you hate that person who just seems to have everything come to them so easy?

OH I do!

A favorite example is when you’re in school and you study, and study, AND study for the test, while some “smarty pants” says, “OH I didn’t even crack a book” and they get an “A” and you get a “C”.

SO so SO frustrating!

But here’s the deal… your ability to work hard will overcome someone’s talent if they don’t apply it!

This is never more true than when you create content.  Your ability to keep creating new content, and do it consistently will overcome a competitor’s voice.  Even if they have more degrees, experience, etc…

Your ability to flood the market and get people to discover “your stuff” is huge!  And the reason is, when you take the time and effort to share “the stuff between your ears” you become the expert.

Here couple great ideas to get you rolling on the content machine

1- Faq list – take 10 minutes to write down every question you’ve ever been asked by customers… write them in a massive list online – AND answer them.  Just do this – it’s super duper helpful.

2- Answer the questions in your FAQ with a series.  Again, do this online for your website, for example if someone asks, “What are the top 10 motivational gifts for Entrepreneurs” – answer the FAQ with your ideas.  BUT then… develop 10 pages of content, each page features one gift idea!  THEN, post a 10 day series on Facebook and link back to each page you created — it’s a great idea!

(I just thought of this one because I rebranded my online store and added a section called “The Entrepreneur In Me Says…” – full of motivational gift ideas.

3- Create a FREE download — remember that top 10 list… OMG – why not trade it for an email address and build your list.  (Note to self… do this!)

This may seem redundant… to create a FAQ, then to create an individual page for each item, then to create a download… but they all serve different purposes.  They are also all searched differently with the Google Machine…

It’s also nice to have these pages ready to go so when you’re a little burned out you can “instantly” have content to link to… Is that cheating?  Kinda… but we all need a little break! Right?!

Today – create your FAQ Page!

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode 794 – Feel Dumb Asking Questions?

Quote: “Content is the reason search began in the first place”

Tuesday: Content and Consistency

 

What the heck are we doing?  You sit down to write a post… it could be your Facebook post, a blog – maybe you’re not writing – but you’re counting down 3…2…1!

You have this nagging feeling to “make content” because you “HAVE TO” — and there you are “making” content.

It’s not fun. It’s annoying. And it’s a chore.

Sound familiar?

OH, I’ve been there.

But now look at today’s quote: “Content is the reason search began in the first place” — how silly is this?  It’s easy to comprehend.  And easy to think back to when you first used the internet.

I’m going to say I used Netscape as my very first exposure to the internet.  OK, my VERY first exposure was Gopher…  wait… no I think my actual first exposure was in 5th grade.  Our elementary school had this old thing that looked like a typewriter that was hooked up to some computer at the University – I don’t know… but it makes Netscape look pretty awesome.

Actually… Netscape was pretty awesome!

I remember asking the gal that showed me how to use the internet, “what do you do with this?”

She said, “Search for something!”  I’m like “what do I search for?”

She said, rather annoyed… “Anything”

Ugh.  The very first website I visited was the University of Minnesota’s — I happened to be working at the U at the time…

I was hooked!

This was the coolest thing I ever saw… it was full of… um… CONTENT.

I searched and then I found answers.  Answers to things I didn’t even know I needed answers to.

This is what we all need to strive for as we “force” ourselves to write content.

Share things that seem super mundane to you because to someone brand new to you or your site they might not be so ordinary.  After all, aren’t there questions you love to have answered but sometimes you’re afraid of feeling “dumb” by asking?  Right???? So answer them for your tribe.

Get out there today – make a list of 10 of the most basic questions you feel like you’re asked and answer them on your website — post the question and the answer — now… the fun part will be – create a series of 10 posts on Facebook or Instagram where you introduce the question and answer as your topic… go one step further and link back to the answers on your website.

It’s a great way to prompt your followers to ask even more questions!

TribeologyBlog.com – Episode 791 – Use the Blank Space!

Quote:  “Being wise and being clever are two different things”

Friday:  Big Money Small Change

 

Sometimes I love when being wise and being clever are the same things.  This idea is perfect for both being wise and clever.

I was searching through homes for sale and came across this idea… as I was flipping through the photos the picture of the living room came across.

LOOK at the TV!

Instead of a black screen it’s a visual of the company’s logo that’s listing the home for sale!

How cool is this!?!?

Think about this as you create your brochures, etc… if there is empty space, add your advertising information!

Tribeology.com – Episode 790 – Get Email Results by Lifting Weights? Yes!

Quote: “What you repeat you strengthen”

Thursday: Infinity Customer

 

Hummmmmmmmmmm……

Today’s quote totally makes sense, right?

If you took one year and did arm curls with weights on your left arm, but never with your right arm… what happens?

Your left arm gets totally buff while your right arm stays the same.

In other words, what you repeat you strengthen.

SOOOOOOOOOOO

What happens if you have a list of email addresses and you send regular specials, notifications, articles, quizzes… you communicate with your email list?  You strengthen your relationship!

What happens of you have a list of email addresses and you do nothing?  If you’re thinking that you don’t develop a relationship, that’s partially true– but it’s worse.  Your effort from collecting email addresses is wasted!  The list dies.  NO communication, just causes the list to wither, shirvle and die.

Don’t let your list go to waste after all your efforts to collect it!

You need to flex your email muscle and repeat your efforts consistently.

The good news is you get to decide when this happens. If you want to write weekly, a couple times a week, or every day — but you need to repeat, repeat, repeat.  Get into the pattern and provide the content your tribe needs!

This repeated action will get you results just like lifting weights!  Annnnd just like lifting weights does not show results instantly… neither does sending one email one time.  BUT, your consistent efforts are rewarded.

So start lifting weights!  Send an email today.
