My friend Maria Reyes McDavis recently interviewed me to ask how I get people to respond to my Tweets. (You can get the audio and downloadable action guide HERE)

In that interview, I covered a few of my strategies such as asking a great question and watching how people respond.The interview and action guide go into greater detail with steps how you can do this yourself, but I wanted to point out a few tips as I get asked about this strategy frequently.

Here are 3 tips (and 1 bonus video!) to show you how to effectively ask questions on Twitter and get great responses.

There’s nothing like the right kind of motivation to kick start a day… or is there?


Motivational tweets are an easy way for Twitter users to show value to their followers… but that plan can backfire if you’re not careful.

The problem motivational Tweeters face is coming off as fake, preachy, saccharin, syrupy, or just plain one-dimensional.

If you like to share feel good thoughts in the Twitterverse, or perhaps you’re thinking of rounding out your edgy crabbiness with a positive note every now and then, check out these tips culled from the Viva Visibility observation deck.

One reason why so many entrepreneurs are feeling frustrated with social networking and marketing in general is because of an unclear idea of who their ideal client is.

“Everyone”, “women”, “people”… those aren’t really great answers. And if you follow my blog, you know I’ve touched on this subject before…  and it bears repeating.

The other day on Twitter, @MuseCrossing shared that American Idol host Ryan Seacrest had 250,000 followers on Twitter.


Hey Ryan Seacrest has over 250,000 followers. Do I want to be just another? Don’t think so.


So it got me to thinking…

What would I do if I had 250,000 followers on Twitter?

What would I say?

What light could I shine on the lives of so many people?

The Expert Series: Part 2

“The Expertise Gap”

Last week I started my “Expert Series” to discuss the topic of what it takes to claim the title “Expert”. You can click here to read the first post “Just ‘Cuz You Can Swing a Hammer”

My business helps experts position themselves in the spotlight. I get so many questions around the topic of claiming the title “expert” that I felt inspired to open a discussion on it and share some tips in this blog series.

Note: If you really want to go into the topic of claiming your expertise and using it to attract free publicity and new clients, then be part of my exclusive Mastermind Program that starts soon…

Today’s Topic:

expertise-gap

In the first post, I explained that expertise was a combination of knowledge and experience.

There’s an old saying I learned from my Dad: “Just ‘cuz you can swing a hammer, doesn’t make you a carpenter.”

Claiming the title “expert” can feel a little daunting. For some, it can even feel arrogant. Yet for others, it’s an open invitation to overstate one’s qualifications.

  • So how do you know when to call yourself an expert?
  • How do you know when you’re stretching things too far and claiming a title you don’t yet deserve?
  • What if the Expert Police come pounding on your door at 2am demanding answers?

I’m covering these questions in the next few blog posts as part of my Expert Series.

Let’s look at social media experts as an example.

FameIf you think that getting 1000 friends on Facebook (or the new Holy Grail, 10,000 followers on Twitter) will somehow make your life better, your teeth shinier, and your wallet fatter….

…then think again.

I love social networking too much to stand by and be silent any longer.

For some reason, a myth is circulating that you’ll make tons of money if you have whopper numbers of followers. But has anyone actually gone into their follower list and studied who their connections are? I mean REALLY gone in there?

Very few people have a solid grasp on the quality of their followers because the obsession is on numbers.
