    Wendy's Week

    Rainbow.JPGI had an amazing week.  I didn't travel. I didn't network.  I just worked from home and it was total bliss.  I took this photo recently after a Melbourne rainstorm (at QV, looking south). Only one other person stopped to marvel with me at the magnificence of mother nature. Would you have stopped?

    I started the week with an information packed teleseminar for my Savvy Web Secrets mentorees.  Next, a call in day, where we really got some clarity around how to better monetize a website in business.  The Savvy Web Secrets women are a real inspiration and I feel privileged to have the opportunity to work with them.

    We also ran our bonus Social Media teleseminar which received great feedback. I then rounded the week with a bit of pampering via a hot stone massage.
    Magnificent! What have you done to pamper yourself lately?

    Until next week, happy surfing!

    Tips for LinkedIn Success

    Of the various internet marketing techniques available today, social networking enjoys ever increasing popularity.  Sites such as LinkedIn, which especially caters to business executives and professionals, facilitates the ability to link professionals in their specific fields in over 150 industries.

    With over 35 million members, how can you best utilise LinkedIn in your business to expand your network?

    Create an attractive profile. Provide actual details your company name and your real name. People want to get to know the person behind the company, so introduce yourself in an engaging, interesting way and include a photo.
     
    Make friends first. Once you're done with the profile stuff, it's time to start making friends to build your contact list. Perhaps you can start with your personal contacts and people in the same industry.  Then move on to connect with those who you think would be beneficial to your business.  Request friends over time - you don't want to be flagged as a spammer.

    Write valuable content. Sharing knowledge and tips for success is a great way to capture people's attention, create a loyal following and become known as an expert in your field.  Try to avoid selling your products and services to people upfront.  No one wants to be sold to.  Social networking is about building rapport and getting to know people. 

    Don't talk about yourself. Social networking sites are not about "me, myself and I".  It's about connecting with like-minded people and sharing experiences and views that can influence them in a positive way. When you are able to give them amazing value, you're on your way to gaining their trust and building more relationships going forward.

    Join discussion groups. Taking part in discussion groups gives people an insight into your background and expertise. Contribute and provide answers to questions that will help people achieve their goals. This is one effective way of increasing their interest in discovering more about the products and services that you offer. 

    Remember, understanding how to use social networking sites such as LinkedIn will enable you to grow your business and achieve success.

    Five Minutes with...

    Lorraine_PirihiLorraine Pirihi, the Productivity Queen

    Question 1             
    What has been your biggest challenge in business and how did you overcome it?

    Keeping myself motivated and staying focused working alone from a home office. Attending seminars, being around like-minded people, listening daily to relevant CD's etc. Investing in coaches who are further along the path to myself and who reinforce that I can do 'it'.

    Question 2
    If you had to start your business again from scratch, what would you do differently?

    Find a coach or mentor who had the type of business and lifestyle I was looking for and follow their lead.

    Question 3
    Who do you admire and why?

    Fabienne Frederickson. She is a 'straight to the point' entrepreneur (like me) who has the style of business and lifestyle that I want to attain. She also is honest and backs up what she does with true content and service.

    Question 4
    It takes a lot of determination and dedication to succeed in business.  What keeps you motivated?

    I live a healthy lifestyle... I look after myself and that makes me feel good which affects how confident I am in my life. The rest is answered in Question 1.

    Question 5
    What are your 3 biggest success tips? 

    1. You are the key to your own success. You are your most important asset. Invest in yourself both physically and mentally ...get the knowledge and help that you need . You cannot be successful on your own.
    2. Know what you want and stay focused. Be very careful who you listen too.
    3. Get organized and take consistent action.
