Social Media Marketing with Facebook.

In this interview with Facebook Marketing stud, Deontee Gordon, we cover a few strategies that you can start implementing today.

The thing I loved most about this interview was the tip about Facebook “Events.”  I don’t hear a lot of people talking about Events within Facebook so I’m glad Deontee shed some light on this for us.

Enjoy this 60 minute interview that I did on my weekly show, SuccessfoolTV.

Comment & let us know what you liked best!

10 Commandments of Passion

9 Comments Posted by Alejandro Reyes on August 25th, 2008 at 6:21 am

Last Tuesday on my Live Internet Show “SuccessfoolTV,” I interviewed my mentor & passion expert Gary Zelesky on the 10 Commandments of Passion. The response was great so I wanted to post this video on my blog & will continue to post my shows on this blog.

Here’s the 10 Commandements:

1. Wealth: If your Passion is not part of what you do you will never be rich!

2: Career/Business: You must build a career/life around Passion to live without regret.

3: Attitude: Your Passion for life will affect your position in life.

4: Significance: If you do not define your Passion someone else will!

5: Responsibility: Do what you must while you focus on your Passion.

6: Balance: Core values are the difference between Passion and Obsession.

7: Time: Manage your Passion not simply your time.

8: Resiliency: Passion never dies it only gets buried through negativity.

9: Goals: Your goals without passion are fantasy!

10: Enthusiasm: Passion is the fuel of the soul that moves your goals forward to completion.

Enjoy!

Hey what’s going on folks!

I miss ALL of you!  I’ve been extremely busy working on something that’s going to BLOW YOUR MIND!  No joke.  Be on the look out for an IMPORTANT announcement from me next week.

Here’s a video that my friend Simon Leung & I did at LAX airport a couple months ago about Social Media Marketing.

It’s a 22 Minute video that Simon entitled: “Social Media Marketing Secrets.”  Look forward to your feedback.

Enjoy folks!

To wrap up this weeks Twinterviews, I interviewed Book Marketing Genius, Warren Whitlock. Warren has been a very successful marketer for a very long time, so the value you he provides in this interview did not shock me.

Warren really hit it on the nail when he said that Twitter is all about “listening” to the conversations and seeing how you can provide value, an answer or a solution to someone. He was referring to a great post on the “Secret to Twitter” by Robert Scoble found here.

Warren has over 1,200 people following him on Twitter and in this interview he share’s how you can use Twitter to your advantage as well! Him and @CoachDeb are coming up with a Twitter Handbook at the end of May so make sure to check it out!

Follow him here: @WarrenWhitelock

Thanks so much for the great insights to Twitter Warren!

There’s a lot of marketers out there that “try” to be someone they’re not, try and cause controversy for no apparent reason, but Tony Blake is authentic as they come. He might curse, he might make you mad, call you out, or even make a video about you, but the guy when it comes to marketing, knows what he’s talking about.

In this interview, Tony shares what he’s been using Twitter for and why you need to start paying attention to the “tech” world folks! There’s a lot of good tips in there on marketing as well.

This is a great interview with blog consultant, Remarkablogger Michael Martine.

I love this interview because I learned the importance of being “remarkable” on Twitter, provide value to the conversation, it’s going to pay huge dividends.

There’s too many on Twitter that are trying to take, take take, but not give.  If you are willing to give and set yourself up as someone that is remarkable, then Twitter is for you.  If not, good luck.

Make sure to download Michael’s ‘82′ page ebook on “How to Start a Business Blog” and follow him on Twitter at http://twitter.com/remarkablogger.

Thanks so much Michael for some awesome information!

I hope you’re enjoying these Twitter Interviews as much as I am.  There’s a lot of great ideas from folks that have been using it to network, to grow their business, market research etc, but the Internet Marketing Sweetie’s, Alice Seba’s laid back approach is definitely something that you need to hear about.

I think that if more people go on Twitter with a much more casual approach then trying to be the person that wants to get followed by everyone, you’re going to see better results.

Alice Seba has been marketig full time on the internet since 2002 and her “sweet” or nice approach to Internet Marketing has definitely paid of.  Make sure to check out the Internet Marketing Sweetie today with tons of great information and insights of how to do marketing the right way.

Thanks Alice!

One Comment Posted by Alejandro Reyes on April 16th, 2008 at 1:23 am

Hey folks, I told you in the What is Twitter? post that I was going to be interviewing some folks that are using Twitter to chime in and talk about why they’re using Twitter, what are some of the benefits they’re seeing so far, and how they’re using it.

Fortunately I had some Twitterer’s (or whatever they’re called) that were interested in discussing they’re experience with Twitter thus far.

The first interview is with Kevin Riley of Product Creation Labs. Kevin has a very cool story on Twitter about how he went an idea to creating a product in ONE week just by utilizing Twitter. Kevin shares the communication and networking benefits of Twitter and how it’s going to be around for a VERY long time.
