I just came across an eye-opening 4-minute 22-second YouTube video titled “Social Media Revolution” and thought you’d enjoy watching it, too.
We’re halfway through my network marketing company’s annual International Convention, and a lot of the presentations so far have mentioned (if not stressed) social media and how to use them for promoting yourself and building your business. Even more extraordinary is how much the Generation Y population of my fellow associates has grown in recent years. It seems as if a quarter of the people in attendance are in their twenties.
If you’re not using social media, you’re missing out on perhaps the largest paradigm shift (yes, I’ll use that term) since the establishment of the Internet, itself. This is what I teach the people I bring into this business, and it will be featured widely in my book on network marketing.
If you haven’t already connected with me, here are some links to follow, as appropriate:
- Facebook—http://www.facebook.com/carl.eric.johnson or http://profile.to/carleric—I use Facebook primarily to (re)connect with friends and family and to keep everyone apprised of what’s going on in my life.
- LinkedIn—http://www.linkedin.com/in/carleric—On LinkedIn I focus primarily on my DB2 experience and that I am in the market for full-time DB2 work (either contract or salaried).
- Twitter—http://twitter.com/carleric—I tweet maybe once a day (and have it set to update my Facebook profile), but I use Twitter primarily to subscribe to others’ tweets, especially if they have anything to do with network marketing, home-based businesses, training, and the like.
You may find me on other sites as well, but these three are the ones I use daily.
This discussion fits with a great acronym I learned a few years back:
TEAM—Together Everyone Achieves More
Social networking is a great way to expand your teams. So start building your own teams with social media.
