1. 3 Social Media Freebies for You
======================================
If you’ve got a little time this weekend, claim these three free
social media tools from Don Crowther, my mastermind coach and
social media teacher:
–A video that explains why the vast majority of people who use
social media to make money are doing it all wrong. If you use
social media because you like to meet and have conversations with
people, skip this. If you use social media to promote your
expertise, pull traffic to your website and make money, don’t
miss this.
–A video that explains the four ways social media brings you
traffic and paying customers. This is important because Don also
explains the one thing you must do to pull traffic all four ways.
–Free software that will make it drop dead simple for you to put
a special free report, video or download on any post or page on
your blog. To get that content, people have to Like your page on
Facebook. Once they click the “Like” button, they’ll get the
content right there on your page. Don actually demonstrates how
this works.
Go here now to claim the freebies:
