3. Want to build your brand reputation?
Here are some of the things I have learned that
have helped me make amazing connections,
grow my reach and business, and have a whole
lot of fun sharing ideas and learning from
others...

4. 1. Be Yourself

5. The social media world is one dimensional, but
you can make yourself multi-dimensional.
Take a more personal approach to writing.
Write how you converse. Practice and study
other successful bloggers and web writers.

6. 2. Be More Interested In Others

7. Let people know you care about them, their
issues, and their challenges.
“Here’s what I can do to help...” is a powerful
connector.

8. 3. Show People Your Personal World

9. Telling people what foods you like, favorite
places you’ve traveled to, and so on can give
people a well-rounded glimpse of your world.
WARNING: Careful about what and how much
you share, though. Remember, how viral the
Web is and that you can’t delete or erase
things!

10. 4. Get To Know Your Followers

11. OK, so you have 1,000s of friends and
followers! Do you know anything about them?
Survey them for their demographics and
psychographics. Get to know what they need
from you and let them know how they can help
you.

12. 5. Collaborate And Hook People Up

13. I connect and hook people up regularly. I
simply introduce people via e-mail introduction,
state the synergy I sense, and let them take it
from there!
Try it, it works!

14. 6. Temper Your Humor And Anger

15. Hey, I love a great joke and some edgy
language, but I don’t need anything really off
color or any profanity to get my attention.
Careful here.

16. 7. Be Consistent And Show Up

17. Be a kid in the playground.
Show up, get to know the other kids, let them
know what position you play best to help the
team, acknowledge when others make a great
play, and play your heart out when you get
picked to play!

18. 8. Give And Receive

19. When people ask me how they can help me,
and I know they are coming from a genuine
place, I accept their invitation and allow them
the pleasure of giving and me receiving.
Try it!

20. 9. Offer Solutions That Have Worked

21. The rule with social media (which is kind of
unspoken) is 4 to 1.
Four posts or tweets where you give and
provide information that provides solutions to
problems or challenges and one promoting
yourself.

22. 10. Spread Hope And Positivity

23. We all benefit from others sharing their
successes, silent heroes, triumphs and
lessons, especially now.
Share yours and others that you have found!
