Sharing Content for Free Traffic – Post Planner Review

Sharing Content For Free Traffic

Post Planner Review

It’s all very well having great content that you have written but what if no-one gets to see it?  No eyeballs means no visitors to your content (blog post) or your website and that’s not good news!   You’ve got to share your stuff!  No question!

More Traffic = More Sales

We all of us know that social media is a great place to share your content but you want to do this in a time and cost effective fashion.

You can share your content on Twitter, Facebook, Google + then there are the bookmarking sites such as Stumbleupon, Delicious, Digg and of course the latest – Pinterest ……   and the list just goes on and on.

In our opinion it is best to concentrate on one or two to begin with and for us the main one is definitely Facebook.   In fact, we love sharing our content on Facebook – sharing value content  – that will help people in our niche (building an online business).  But as we all know, this kind of activity can be very time consuming especially when you want to share it on lots of groups – we were regularly sharing our blog posts in about 20 plus groups manually!  Now that’s not a good use of time that could be spent elsewhere doing profit generating tasks ….

Facebook Status Update Tips

But you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do so at least make your posts interesting and appealing

  • find an image that attracts attention to your post update and makes someone want to read more
  • Use an attention grabbing headline (can be different to your blog headline)
  • Make sure you say something about your blog post/link that will encourage them to open it

Here’s how a recent blog post we wrote got shared on Facebook (it pulled an image from our blog post – one that we designated to be the leading image)

That obviously got a few comments and interaction and drew attention because of the headline and the photo.

Now going back to how long all this takes ….. it occurred to us that there had to be an easier way and fortunately for us our good friend and pro blogger shared a fantastic post with us just recently and we got to find out her secret to posting her content on 55 groups on Facebook in less than 10 minutes.  What’s more we discovered that she was branding her posts every single time – now that is very powerful.

Here’s the secret – it’s called Post Planner and with it you can share your content in all those groups in your niche in minutes instead of hours.   Better than that, you can even schedule your posts so you don’t have to be on Facebook for your content to be distributed.  How cool is that!

Here’s what you can do with Post Planner

  • Send you post to multiple groups & pages (only pages you are admin on though)
  • schedule dates/times for your posts
  • schedule updates/posts to repeat
  • get an email notifying you when your posts go out
  • use some pre-written updates

Here’s a video explaining how it works – because video just says it better – now this video does not show the “branded app” at work but gives you a better idea of how it works.  There are also a couple of other videos there which show you some of the other great features

Here’s a blog post we shared earlier which shows just what we mean

Post Planner on Facebook

We think this is a great value tool for you to share your content, create a buzz around your brand and give people more opportunity to build a trusting relationship with you ….. there is a small investment involved but one we think is definitely well worth it for the time you save.

And …. by the way their customer support is awesome (thank you Josh for doing a great job)

So all that remains is to wish you lots of luck with sharing your content – the more you get it out there the more free traffic you can generate…. and that’s we all want!

Frank Kern The State of The Internet 2012 – Second Quarter

Frank Kern The State of The Internet           2012 – Second Quarter

Frank Kern Spring Flowers

We have just listened to Frank Kern’s State of The Internet 2012 Address for the second quarter which he appropriately calls the “Spring Quarter” and we wanted to get this information to you as quickly as possible in case you had missed it.  WHY?

Because in it he shares with you how you can grow your business 500% in the coming months – that’s both in terms of revenue and in value.

Here’s the video so you can listen and take note – we’ve just summarised the key points.

The 4 Pillars (According to Frank Kern)

Frank Kern The 4 Pillars

Pillar # 1 – Shed All Encumbrances Towards Growth

This is the ‘big one’ – the encumbrances that rob you of FOCUS towards PRODUCTIVE WORK.   Let’s look at what that means …. it’s a favourite hobby horse of ours too and we are just as prone to it as anyone else – more so even!   We’re all faced with the same levels of distraction and working online to be honest  makes us even more susceptible to distraction.  We loved the phrase that Frank Kern  used “the internet is the biggest attention defecit disorder vortex in the history of mankind” – we could not have put it better ourselves!

Just think about social media as an example – he uses this too – but we’ll let him explain the the video we are going to share with you here.

We are all bombarded by emails and the offer of ‘opportunities’ constantly and endlessly …. and the thing is that they are probably all great but if we focus on them they will rob us of our real focus.

Key Point Stop Chasing Opportunities and focus on the fundamentals of wealth attraction.  Attracting money into your business and the way to do that is add value              “money is attracted to that which brings most value to the market place”

Think about how you can double your productivity and deliver the most value to the market place.

Key Point – DON’T focus on this stuff – you will lose money!  Focus on REAL productive work which is defined ast ‘stuff that gets customers and money’

Pillar # 2 – Embrace The 3 Master Strategies

These 3 master strategies according to Frank Kern in The State of The Internet 2012 address are:

  • Increase the average transaction size
  • Increase overall customer value
  • Increase the amount of customers

All of these things will  help you to massively increase your profitability and your income.  He uses the example of just 100 customers and you will be amazed at the figures revealed – imagine being able to use these strategies to increase an income of $10,000 to $20,000 – he uses the example of an average internet marketer working 6-7 hours a day and whose income is $10K per month.

3 Master StrategiesHe suggests you complete a chart and makes sure that each of your tasks (he uses his own tasks as an example) = 30 points!

Key point Think strategically because if you always do what you’ve always done you are just going to keep getting the same old results.

Pillar #3  Deploy Proven Strategies

This is all about taking action and implementing the proven strategies (Pillar # 2)  That means that you need to pay attention to your ‘upsells’ and have a smart and effective ‘back end” marketing system

With The Six Figure Mentors that is all taken care of for you which is what we love about the program and why the members speak so highly of it.

Frank is the master of back end sales and at the end of the video you will see just how good he is at it – he has tested these strategies and he knows they work.

In fact you have to fill out an application form to join his 5X Group.  Guess what?  In The Six Figure Mentors we do just the same.  You can see just what we mean by going to our Application (and get some fantastic training included)

Pillar # 4 Grow Towards The Sun

Frank Kern talks about pillar # 4 being the most important.  We’re not surprised actually.  Let’s explain …… we should all see ourselves as being propelled towards the sun and growing like plants in the sunlight.  How do we do that?  We do it by associating with like minded people, belonging to peer groups and mastermind groups where we all have the same aspirations.  Aligning ourseelves with these people will help us to grow way beyond our expectations.

At The Six Figure Mentors we have a fantastic peer group community where everyone helps one another no matter what level of success they have achieved and their mastermind groups which meet around the country (the UK) physically, and around the world (virtually) allow us all to raise our standards and learn from one another.

If you struggle to be productive and want to improve your focus in the way that Frank Kern suggests then check out our Improve Your Productivity Tips and download our consise handbook to help you get the best our of your productive hours.
