Warrior Forum Mastermind Groups Project

by Tyler Perroux on December 12, 2009

Now not to say that I don’t currently love the forum style way of searching for groups, and trying to plan meetings, but I don’t.

Now I posted a thread over at the Warrior Forum a few weeks back entitled “Building Relationships with IM’s“.

Now out of the response from JMPruitt:

ยทยทยท That would be a great idea I think. No offense intended to the WF but the one here seems a bit disorganized.

I have decided to spawn from the dead, the WF Project. This will be a more or less better system for organizing the event’s and meetings that currently end up in the forum list style.

There will be three categories of events

  • Mastermind Groups: These are more or less massive gatherings, usually involving something bigger than a coffee shop, or your living room.
  • Local Events: These can be either a mastermind group, or a recurring meeting. The difference is that these are on a smaller scale, and usually are a spur of the moment meeting about a new regulation or just to talk.
  • Recurring Meetings: Group of people in a city or county that meet every week at Starbucks© to discuss things.

Now this isn’t set in stone, and will be fixed based on user surveys and questioner.

Now the entire thing is not where near set in stone, but if anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to post a comment, or drop me a line at webmaster [at] tylerperroux.com.

To Our Success,

How to lose all your Twitter followers from ONE Post?

by Tyler Perroux on November 28, 2009

Now Twitter is a wonerful tool for Internet Marketers, and advertisers, but there is one thing that most people seem to forget, that Twitter is a Social Network, not an advertising billboard.

Now there is a wonderful thing about Twitter which can increase your conversion rates, and your relationships on Twitter called Direct Messaging(Private Messages).

Now this is a wonderful way to build relationships with your Followers, but most people frown upon this as most marketers use it wrong, and instead of it turning out to high conversion rates, it ends up being spam. People hate you, People block you, and your followers unfollow you, and you are flagged by Twitter as a spammer which can lead to suspension or account termination(BAD).

Now if you use this the proper way you can recieve:

  1. High conversation rates between you and your followers
  2. An increase in click-through rates, and traffic
  3. An Increase in conversions.

Now Twitter limits you to 140 characters, so you must use every letter very wisely.

Don’t try to sell a user something at first, instead build the relationship.

VERY BAD DIRECT MESSAGES:

  1. Hey there! Come and check out my blog at http://dumb.url/dosl
  2. Hey get more traffic [affiliate.clickbank.link]
  3. OMG GET THIS BRAND NEW SYSTEM WHERE EVERYTHING IS IN CAPS(bad bad bad)
  4. (real DM) Hey Thanks for following me – I’m looking forward to reading your tweets! Check out a new system in prelaunch: http://shortURL

The latter was a horrible thing. Perfect affiliate link disguided by an iframe on another site. This Twitter user was immediatly blocked and unfollowed. If you avalanche a user with DM’s or tweets, they don’t like this either(especially if they have phone updates for DM’s)

Now let’s look at some good examples of DM’s

  1. Hey, thanks for following me! Are you currently apart of any projects?
  2. Hello there, How are you doing today?
  3. Hi, by any chance do you have a blog that I can check out?
  4. Thanks for following me, Your awesome :]

Now giving your followers attension will make them take action to get to know you better, which can lead to a good relationship, which can lead to you making some extra money or friends online.

Basically, the more attention and value you give to other people, the more attention and value is returned. Social karma anyone? If you are currently doing any of the bad things above, try to tweak your DM’s or tweets to reflect the good ones, and you can get better results immediatly.

To your success
–Tyler Perroux

P.S. Don’t use scheduled tweets that post every so many minutes or hours, as this can still be seen as spam. Change up your tweet, and repost with a new URL, so it looks unique :]
