guest post by Brandana

So what is a Mastermind Group?

A Mastermind Group is a group of business professionals from various industries that meet up on a recurring basis to talk about their professional or personal life.

The concept of the Mastermind Group is simple – To be successful, you must surround yourself with successful people.

First off, you will need to promote or invite people to become a member of this Mastermind Group. Right off the bat, do you know of any like-minded professionals?  Go through your Facebook account and take a look at people’s profession and also create a Linkedin account if you don’t already have one.

How I Create Interesting Blog Posts

Let’s face it.  This is not going to be one of those articles where they say, “Put in quality articles“ or  “Put in pictures”.  I won’t waste your time with silly stuff like that.  Here’s the truth:  You’ve got to write about what you’re tribe is interested in.  That’s what makes a blog interesting.  It’s something I want to read.  You cannot be interesting to the whole world.  You can be fascinating to your whole tribe.  Just write what the tribe is looking for.  Keep it sweet.  Keep it simple.

Here’s your in-depth how-to:  Look at what your tribe is talking about on social media.  Look at what they’re talking about on their own blogs and specifically write posts that address that.  It’s called “eavesdropping”.  Yes, you eavesdrop on your tribe and you write about what they already want to know about.  The social media is like having a party line to everybody in town.  So, take a moment.  Look up your e-mail list.  Look up their domains.  Look at their social media.  Go to their websites.  See what they’re doing and address exactly what they want to know and what they’re talking about.  And you’ll be fascinating.  And you’ll get a lot of traffic.

How to put social media on remote control

Many people want to get involved in social media and are concerned that it will take up all of their time. I have a simple solution that allows you to appear online and engaged and yet, really only use a few hours a week to do this. Especially if you only have one brand you are pushing.

My three brands, Wright Place TV, Solve it Sisters and A Crowd Funded Life all have their own social media foot print. Then there is my personal footprint.  Because of the brands I am handling, I spend a little more time that what I talk about in this article but not much more. You simply can’t be online all day and get any revenue generating work done Read more
