Most people who would like to use the Internet to promote their brand, book or business are very busy people. It is understandable that these people feel they don’t have time to read book after book or white paper after white paper of information on different aspects of Internet marketing — even though doing so could be very useful.
Therefore, here is a shortcut for learning a little more each day without being overwhelmed:
Do a search on Twitter for specific areas you’d like to learn more about, such as:
SEO (search engine optimization)
Facebook fan pages
Social media marketing
Then follow people who frequently tweet about these subjects and whose tweets contain links to good blog posts on these topics.
Once each day quickly scan your Twitter stream to find two or three tweets with links to SHORT articles on these topics. Click through on the link and scan the first paragraph of the article. If the article appears that it will add to your store of knowledge, print it out for reading later in the day or evening.
Just like you make time to brush your teeth each night, make time to read the two or three short articles you’ve printed out.
Voila! You can go to sleep having learned something new — and maybe something that you can use to promote your brand, book or business online.
P.S. If you’re thinking of starting an offline or online business, get Melinda F. Emerson’s new book “Become Your Own Boss in 12 Months or Less! A Month-By-Month Guide to a Business That Works.” You can read my review of the book at http://budurl.com/smallbizladyguide
