Mastermind Promotion Groups - My Main NAMS Takeaway

Thanks to Bob 'The Teacher' Jenkins, my main NAMS takeaway this past time was how beneficial it is to have a mastermind group. Consisting of up to six people, you work together to promote one another. Things like re-tweeting on Twitter, commenting on their blogs, cross-promoting, guest blogging for one another, commenting and liking each of the group's Facebook pages, adding their videos to your site if applicable. Basically, anything that you would love someone to do to help promote you, your site, and your products.

The best group members should have similar target markets and be marketing at a similar level. As much as I might like to have an Internet marketing superstar in the group, I doubt that's going to happen. So I've hooked up with four other marketers to do this. None of us are absolute beginners, but none of us are making megabucks online either. We all have different products and services, but our markets would be interested in hearing about the others in the group. We've just started and plan to meet on Skype once a week to encourage one another and get feedback. All of us are looking forward to what we can accomplish together.

How do you feel about having a mastermind group like that? And are you already involved in one? If so, how has it affected your business?

Opt-in Forms

I spent today creating opt-in forms for each of my blogs. Mind you, other than this one on blogger, which is so easy to install, I have no idea what to do next. My other blogs are in Wordpress and have to be copied into the HTML code. For a non-techie like me, that is a big deal. Update: With the newer versions of Wordpress and the use of widgets with most themes, adding an opt-in form is now as easy as on a Blogger blog. I went to Aweber and created my form, copied the code that's produced and pasted it into my HTML widget. And I even sound like a techie, don't I? Until next time, Carol

Our Mastermind Progress

I mentioned in the last post that I was going to be involved in a mastermind group to help promote one another. So far we have met once on Skype and twice on a teleseminar. These are my observations so far: Our Skype meeting was a lot of fun, but didn't accomplish much. I don't use Skype often and the others did only for one on one text chats. When the first two members got on Skype, it was fine, we could see and hear one another well. As soon as someone else entered the call, the video capability was lost. Once four of us were on (member number five couldn't attend that day) it was hard to hear properly. There was a lot of phone interference and we kept getting dropped from having a group call. We finally gave up and called it a day. The next two sessions we've used a teleseminar service. I have a free trial for InstantTeleseminars so we used that. The advantage here over freeconferencecalling.com is that there were local phone numbers for the American members of our...

Youtube Videos - Are You Using Them?

Creating more Youtube videos is on my to-do list for this spring. But I think I need to take a lesson from my granddaughter's future husband and learn to use humor much more than I do. Here is a recent video he created to give you an idea of what I mean. Don't miss the surprise ending. Until next time, Carol
