Social Media Marketing - How to Build a Strong Relationship With Your Followers
Is the key to success in social media marketing to build a huge following? No. The key is to build a strong following of people who actually care about you and who you are. People that share the same interest in life and professionals that is in the same niche as you. There is a hole bunch of people on social media that acts like robots. They act like a machine that is programmed to do one thing and that is to sell their product or their business opportunity to everyone. We all know how annoying this is. It don't work! You don't sell your product that way and you create enemies instead of friends. People will unfollow you and in many cases report you as a spammer. You don't want that to happen.
Act in social media as you act in life in general
Be a human being. A human being has real feelings, meanings and emotions. There is a lot off people out there that has the same interests and struggles as you do. By writing this I don't mean that you should post all your struggles and be a sympathy seeker. If you can provide a solution to peoples struggles you are king. Share what you found out to be the solution for you when you dealt with the same problem as they deal with.
Provide value
What do people found valuable? I bet that you just like me isn't a writer of novel or a person that comes up with quotes or good jokes all the time. The good thing is that there is so many great writers out there. The best ones lived in the past. Find a good quote and post it. Share your meanings on a news story, a book you read, a video you just saw or a hillarious joke you just heard.
Communicate
ReTweet posts that you found interesting. Reply to all DM's that doesn't contain spammy links. A link to connect on facebook is accepted and a good way to build a stronger relationship. Be grateful and thank people for RT and @replies. Respond to your at replies as quickly as possible. Even if it is a disagreeing comment, just write “I appreciate your ideas and comments even if we do not agree.”
Happy Tweeting :)

Re: Kevin needs "social glue" ideas
- Hi,
I like the idea of "10 items that could act as "social glue" because I am an internet marketer. But I agree with the rest that the 10 recent post is nice. Maybe we should open up a new section in the forums on Social Media...or Social Media Marketing.
I will tell you that the world is about 1 1/2 behind when it comes to understanding social media. Building a section now will put EvanCarmichael.com is a great position a year down the road when people realize Social Media can produce more traffic than SEO.

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for the suggestion. Why don't you start a new post (with a poll) to see if there's enough interest in your idea for a social media section?
Re: Should Evan add a "Social Media Marketing" category to the f
- Hi,
Online Marketing would be a great title, and having sub categories would make it even better, there would plenty of categories to choose from, Social Media, SEO, Article Marketing and yes even Affiliate Marketing to name just a few,
great looking site btw Jeff,
take care,
Carol
Re: Should Evan add a "Social Media Marketing" category to the f
- Just as an update, Evan has extended the poll's expiration date and says he'd like to see at least 25 "yes" votes before implementing the new category. Moreover, it would probably be called "Online Marketing" instead of Social Media Marketing".
Kevin's Case Study #11 - A New Forum Category?
- Hi Everyone,
2009 is a new year and I'd like to create a new forum category to jazz things up! In the past, there's been some interest voiced about adding a "Social Media Marketing", "Online Marketing", "Internet Marketing" or "Online Promotion" category.
I'll implement [u:1g2tv6tf]ONE[/u:1g2tv6tf] of those new categories, but can someone first tell me what the difference would be between the existing "Marketing" section and one of those new options mentioned above?
Thanks
