Social Networking - The Art of Driving Online Traffic

Traffic is the life blood of Online business and social media marketing is a way to have your traffic find you. Today you will find millions of baby boomers out there today taking the skills they have developed over their career and applying them to new businesses. The traffic through Social networking is free and can be very beneficial for those new businesses.



When you get internet traffic to your business the following good things will happen..

People will see your message, find out who you are and what you have to offer. You will be watched on Social Media, it is up to you to be consistent in your message in order for people to know, like and trust you.

You can become an authority in your niche. Become well known in your niche. The more internet traffic you can direct to your site the more well known your site will become. The days of "build it and they will come" are long gone, you will have to work to get traffic to your site. The good news is that it gets easier as time goes by when you are consistent and provide value.

More internet traffic will result in more sales. As always the more eyes on your product or service the more sales you will make. We all like to believe that our product is good for everyone, but that is never the case. People are all at different times and places in their lives and business and will not all be ready for what you have to offer. I teach social marketing to clients or maintain their accounts for them and I know that people who do not even have a business yet will not be interested in my products and services. They are not ready.

More internet traffic will also result in you being able to make more money. When I started on the journey of building my business I had a coach who kept telling me "it's not about the money" and that I needed to do things for free. I now understand that is not true, without money coming in I was unable to continue because it was costing me money to provide the information he kept telling me to provide. As a business professional it is your responsibility to make money, you must do so in order to sustain in business.

Are You Ready to Rock The Interview..

Introduction in a corporate world holds a huge importance of an individual to introduce himself/herself efficiently before a stranger. Unfortunately, in majority of the Interviews, I have seen people with really good academic records stumbling badly and it all starts with inability to introduce yourself.

The job interview is made up of several parts, and each part is instrumental in telling the interviewer more about the candidate.

Needless to say that the first part, the introduction part, is one of the most important parts in any job interview – the initial impression, the first interview seconds/minutes, affect the entire application process for a prospective candidate.

The first question you will probably be asked in an interview is:

“Can you please introduce yourself?” or "Can you tell me about yourself”.

Here are some tips to help you make a strong first impression.

What to Say when Introducing Yourself?

The interviewer doesn’t want to know details about your personal life, but to know that you can do the job based on your qualification and what you’ve achieved in your previous jobs – that your professional abilities fit into the job and its requirements.

Think of these first words, the introduction words, as a preview of yourself, so that you focus your answer to address what really maters the interviewer – tell enough interesting information, main topics, about yoursel so that the interviewer can easily take the lead of the conversation and continue the interview.

How to introduce yourself professionally in an Interview?
Few key points about yourself

As it is the beginning of the interview, you will be able to provide only few key points about yourself that are interesting and yet useful for the continuity of the job interview:

In two or three sentences focus on what most interests the interviewer – start with your most recent job, explain why you are interested in this position and why you are well qualified for the position – your key qualification and professional qualities.
Highlight your greatest achievements – put forward short statements (or a short story) that draw attention to your accomplishments.

Answer the Questions Concisely:

While introducing yourself, try to be precise. A long and winding introduction may put off the interviewer right from the beginning – the best way to introduce oneself in an interview is to prepare a brief speech, an oral profile, which would be easy to remember, so that one can say it out flawlessly, confidently, subtly and yet has good impression on the interviewer.

Never make it too long – make it up to 1 minute top. You would want to interact with the interviewer as soon as possible, giving him a chance to lead the conversation rather than missing your way right at the beginning of the conversation.

Don’t repeat phrases from your resume:

Remember that your resume is already on the table – your resume is in front of the interviewer. Of course, you will be able to expend more about info that is written in the resume during the interview flow.

Asking this question, the interviewer wants an introduction speech, a briefer – he/she will wait to hear the main points about you.
