Social network pros prosper wildly in the making money online niche. Attractive individuals stick out from the crowd of selfish, inward thinking entrepreneurs.
Most care about ME. Few care about others. Most WANT MONEY NOW. Few delay the urge for instant gratification, focusing instead of serving others. Be one of the few.
Social networking requires you to talk to people. *Social* networking. But not about your opportunity.
Talk about your friends. Add value to profiles, by writing insightful, helpful comments. Ask questions. Provide answers. Get what you want by helping other people prosper. As you see most people use social networking incorrectly. Move the focus from Me to helping other people.
Pros focus on serving. Helping others. Branching out. Building massive, powerful networks of leaders who boost pro’s presence on a daily basis. Plug into Oneness. Stop trying to do everything on your own. Plenty of people want to help you prosper online.
How do you meet this crowd?
By helping as many people as possible each day on social networks. Twitter. Facebook. LinkedIn. Google Plus. Anywhere.
Making Money Online Mastery
1 – Hang Out in the Right Places
Facebook Groups, LinkedIn Groups, Twitter streams. Hang out where prospects hang out. Waste no time hanging where prospects do not hang out. Spend all of your time connecting with targeted prospects. Chat. Connect. Write helpful comments. Answer questions. Share your insight. Attract prospects.
Run a twitter search for your niche keyword. Build a list around tweeters from your niche who provide value. Retweet your list members. Engage. Connect. Target your hang out spots to prevent weeks, months or years of social network wheel spinning.
Develop authority. Prosper. Focus on social spots where your message is popular. Speak to the right audience. No need to hang out on inspirational groups all day long if you are a home business coach.
2 – Share Content Like a Friend
Like a post? Share the post on your wall. Sharing; caring people make money online with ease because the crowd builds an army of people who are happy to promote sharing, caring people. Want traffic? Help people generate traffic by sharing people’s content with your audience. Whatever you want, give it away.
The foolproof way for a home business newbie to become a pro quickly is sharing content aggressively. Promote other people tenaciously. Become a free giver. Give freely receive easily. Everybody digs a giver. Everybody wants to see a free giver succeed. Keep giving, keep helping and it all comes back to you. Whatever you reap you once sowed.
3 – Improve Your Social Skills
Send personalized emails to new friends, thanking people for connecting with you. Pen 3 paragraph long comments. The 1 line comment drive by is all well and good, but you seek mastery. Masters are freakishly adept at building home business connections, by developing intensive mindfulness. Penning a 3 paragraph comment makes you stand out. Big Time.
Think about it: imagine how popular you become by making an IMPACT wherever you pop up?
Popular people grow networks of individuals who promote popular people aggressively. Sounds pretty beneficial, doesn’t it?
10, 20, or 50 people, or more, promoting you aggressively to tens to hundreds of thousands of people? Whammo! Reach out with style. Personalize experiences. What is the favorite sound in your native language? Your first name. Everybody likes being addressed by name. Adds a neat personal touch which makes you remember the person who took the time to address you by name. Especially in the cyber world.
Summary
Hang out in the right places. Save yourself time and energy. Share content like a friend. Expand your presence with lightning speed. Improve your social skills to make powerful connections.

Great Article Ryan.
People think that they can start to sell right away. I say first worry about that another time.
First develop an audience and get a good connection with them.
Ryan, I think if you look at the people who are massively successful with social marketing, they are doing exactly what you are talking about in this post. Most, if not all, interact with their visitors on a one-to-one basis. They treat everyone they come in contact with as the most important person they’ve met all day.
You said, “Focus on social spots where your message is popular.”
This all comes down to properly identifying your target market, and while your post doesn’t clearly state this, it is what you’re driving at in several parts of it. Targeting the people you want to market to is crucial in having any type of success in business. Especially in the social arena where attention spans are short. Your message has resonate, but even more so, you have to resonate with the people you associate with.
Your comment about “making an IMPACT” is especially important in our drive-by social media society. You need to get people’s attention now, and hold it, for however long it takes to get your message across. Being attentive to them and becoming their friend is only the first step to a long and profitable relationship.
Good article Ryan. I enjoyed it.
Samuel and Darryl, thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your insight!

I don’t get any visitor from social networks maybe because I just share everything as crap, I will have to be actually social.
Cool tips Ryan. What you just posted is obviously not indept, or should I say far from being successful social marketer. But if you want to be a very successful one, I highly recommend people to read this post first.
Really like your idea about everybody digging a giver, can definitely see the benefit, not just in making people happy but also gaining more visibility by doing so. Overall a pretty good list that you’ve put together, keep up the good work.
There are now several ways on how to make money using web such as blogging, Facebook, Affiliate marketing, Paid online trading and Google adsense and these strategy can also help you increase presence of your website and business.
‘Share content like a friend’. This is a good quote. The internet is used most effectively when it is used as a tool for genuine community interaction. By sharing content you are passing on information and because of this, your readers are more likely to engage with you.
Very nice post Ryan. It’s the secret of building an online business to think about your customers first before thinking about the sales you can make. Put yourself in your customers’ shoes and judge if your site somehow gives them valuable reasons to buy your product or not.
Your point about “sharing content like a friend” really hit home for me. Sometimes it feels a bit hard for me to put myself out there and express my opinion. But when I look at it from the point of view of “helping out a friend” it really makes it a lot easier. Thank you for sharing this.
