Wendy's Week                                                                                                                  
Wendy_and_DaleA busy couple of weeks meeting some amazing people.

First off, I spoke at the home of Dale Bourke for her Red Tent Woman Event which was a lot of fun.  I always enjoy meeting inspiring women.  One lucky lady won a very useful door prize - a ticket our upcoming event!

Then off to the sunny Gold Coast for the VIVA Conference where I shared how to use Social Media as part of your business strategy to connect with clients and customers.  

What's your favourite way to connect with clients? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

So, what is your success rate when it comes to getting in front of an audience that wants to buy what you are selling? Could you do with a few more clients? Would you love to get in front of the right people without spending all your waking hours trying to do it?

If you answered yes, make sure you take a look at our upcoming event here.

"What I love is that Wendy is super passionate. Not only does she tell you what to do, she gives you the tools so you can implement it into your business so you don't walk away going "well that's great, I know what to do but how am I going to do it?" She gives you the how and the tools to implement it which I love."

Wendy onstageWhat if I could show you how to be the "go to" guy or gal no matter what you do? So when someone needed a product or service, no matter what you do, they would think of you.

Would being "top of mind" help get you in front of an audience that are looking to buy?

Would being seen "everywhere" without spending huge sums of money on marketing and advertising help you to get exposure for your business?

Attend my intensive How To workshop and I'll show you How To Do All That and more!

Why You Need a Facebook Business Page 

Nobody can deny that, right now, Facebook is the top social media site being used by people across the globe. Statistics as of January 2010 reveal that Facebook has over 350 million active users and half of them log on to their accounts in any given day.  In fact, most people spend, on average, 55 minutes a day using Facebook.

In terms of active pages, more than 700,000 businesses are currently on Facebook and across these pages, there are more than 5 billion fans.  Mind boggling isn't it?

For those who have not yet jumped on the bandwagon, particularly people in business, now is the time for you to jump in.  If you don't, quite simple, you and your business are missing out.

Being on Facebook, particularly if you're running a business, is an amazingly effective way of attracting more people who can become your potential clients - if you do it right.  Not only that, you're expanding your horizons because you're reaching a global market should you choose to do so.

A good start is to set up a business page separate from your personal Facebook profile account. Why? Facebook business pages are indexed by the big search engines such as Google.  It's one more way to get your business more traffic and increase your potential for profit moving forward.

When picking a name for your page, you can use your business name or choose a specific one that will easily catch attention. Avoid using generic words that are likely to cause spam. But be warned - once you've chosen your page name you can't change it so take your time and choose wisely.

Once you have a few people that like your business page, you are able to choose a "vanity" URL for your page.  For example, our Facebook page is http://www.Facebook.com/savvywebwomen.  That's far easier to remember than http://www.facebook.com/pages/Wendy-Moore-Inc/365773404831?ref=ts 
Once again, choose wisely as you cannot change your mind once you've chosen a name.

Remember to link your Facebook page with your other social media accounts. This will help you save time when updating your other pages because with only one post, the other social media accounts automatically get updated such as Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube.

Promoting your Facebook page on your websites is a great way to build a following.  In fact, each time a Facebook user "likes" your page, Facebook puts a link back to your business page on the profile of the visitor's profile page. This means even more exposure for your business page. 

Need help setting up your Facebook Business Page? Speak to Wendy about getting it sorted here.

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

I think it was that I was so keen to start my business that I tried to do everything at once in such a short period of time, which isn't a good idea. I quickly learnt that I wasn't superwomen and there were only so many hours in the day so I had to start planning and prioritizing tasks.

I have to do lists and created what I call an "ideas" book where I write down every idea in my head onto paper. This allowed me to focus on the tasks in hand. I still use this today as I am continuously coming up with new ideas.

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

I definitely wouldn't produce a product from scratch or be the first to introduce a concept to Australia which was what happened with my first business (Tinytalk - Baby Sign Language). It was great in principle but extremely hard work educating the market. Also the capital outlay to produce books, DVD etc was huge. I think if I had to start again I would definitely start off with a digital product.

Question 3
Who do you admire and why?

I think I would have to say it's all those women out there that absolutely no limiting beliefs of what he is capable of achieving and has the ability to create marketing campaigns are working so hard juggling everything so that they can make their lives better for their families.

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

Seeing that I am making a difference and I get to help other women succeed in business. Also the fact that I am creating a business that gives me a good lifestyle with my family.

Question 5
What are your 3 biggest success tips? 

  1. Have a support network and a "buddy" who I can bounce ideas off.
  2. Invest in myself and my business - It is so important to learn new things to be able to grow. It is also critical to invest money in your business for things such as marketing, which without you wouldn't have a business.
  3. Change to market needs - If something isn't working, change it. Change your business to what your market wants, not what you think it wants.
