“Take 5 With The Tribe” Face To Face With Val Wilcox

Published September 7, 2010 by Kary Rogney

Continuing my “Take 5 With The Tribe” interview series today with Val Wilcox.

Val has been a member of the Tribe Mastermind Community since February. She shares her views on why discovering your passion is so important, connecting with people authentically and why becoming a member of the Tribe is so impactful to your business.

The first question I asked Val is regarding what she is most passionate about. What fires her up every morning as her feet hit the floor. Val is most passionate about supporting others in realizing their potential. Whether through coaching or blogging, she shares the opportunities that life has to offer to learn, grow and create. Val choose this path is because she feels that people can move through life letting the winds of fate bounce them here, there and everywhere, or they can take action and move towards their dreams. She believes that discovering your passion is the first step in creating a better life. Through personal development and self improvement steps, Val enjoys supporting others as they find their passion.

Since Val uses online social media and her blog to connect with people, I asked her to share one tip that you could use today to enhance your online presence. Her main focus is on being authentic, open and transparent in all your interactions with others.

Val shares these important tips:

  • Be yourself, allow people to get to know you.
  • Engage your followers in conversations and interact with them.
  • Maintain a high degree of integrity in all your interactions online.
  • Be positive and supportive.

To wrap this up, I asked Val what is the most important reason for being part of the Tribe.

Creating lasting connections with positive-minded people has enriched Val’s life. The sense of community within the Tribe is why she enjoys this so much. Opportunities like Mastermind groups and business ventures are key components that have enhanced her online experience.

To connect with Val, visit her at www.valwilcox.com. You can also find her on Facebook or Twitter.

“Take 5 With The Tribe…” Face To Face With Nick Logan

Published August 30, 2010 by Kary Rogney

This afternoon I had the opportunity to interview Nick Logan in my latest “Take 5 with the Tribe” interview series. Nick Logan is one of the co-founders of the Empowered Tribe and gives some great pointers on finding your passion, video marketing, and the new changes in Google that make it more important than ever to take advantage of what http://empoweredtribe.com has to offer.

The first question I asked Nick is regarding what he is most passionate about.  In other words what gets him fired up about his online business.

Nick is most passionate about coaching.  Whether that be with youth sports, the proper mindset, or coaching and sharing the knowledge and skills he has gained over the last few years with his online endeavors.  Nick decided a few years back to integrate his passions into his business.  I would say
that is working out pretty well for him.

Nick is extremely passionate about teaching people video editing and creating viral videos, product creation and of course the tribe concept.  Since Nick has had some great success with video marketing, I asked him to share one tip that you could use today to ramp up your success with video.  He shared way more than one tip.

Nick shared his formula for constructing videos.  This also works for formulating your blog posts as well.

The formula is:
Tell them what you are GOING to tell them… (Intro)
Tell them… (body of your message)
Tell them what you just told them… (conclusion and call to action)

Remember people have short attention spans.  If you do not get their attention in the first 7 seconds they are onto another video. At first keep your videos short.  If you have a hard time coming up with content, just grab one of your favorite quotes and tell your audience what that means to you.  Be sure to have a call to action at the end of your video.

What is a call to action?  Tell your audience what you would like them to do.  Direct them.  Whether you want them to comment, Retweet, Share on Facebook, or maybe you want to send them to your blog, or capture page.

It is important put a link or watermark right on your video.  If you do not know how to do this, Nick  shares some valuable and simple video editing techniques at http://meetnicklogan.com/vids/

Nick also recommends getting into a ritual of doing a video everyday. The best way to do this is with a 30 day video challenge.  Our students in the http://empoweredtribe.com community have shown remarkable results within a few days of dedicating themselves to a 30 day video challenge.

The last thing I asked Nick, was to describe what about the TRIBE model that most excites him.  Nick shares some amazing insights on some lesser known changes that fall right into the hands of those that have a blog and most importantly are taking advantage of the Tribe model.  Be sure to watch the video all the way through.  You don’t want to miss this tip.

Blogging For Beginners: “How Do I Create Social Proof Quickly When I’m A New Blogger?”

Published August 28, 2010 by Kary Rogney

Social proof is powerful and not something to overlook as a new blogger. When people land on a website with hundreds of people in a Google Friend Connect Box or in a Facebook Fan Page Box for you, it immediately gives you more credibility.

It’s kind of like a guest book at a bed and breakfast. If you take a look at it and it’s full with lots of messages then you feel confident that you’re making the right decision to be there. The same holds true for these side bar widgets that you can install in your blog.

Like me you’ve probably visited blogs that look and ‘feel’ like a ghost town, right? There are only 3-4 people in their Google Friend Connect box and you’re thinking that it’s probably that blogger’s spouse, mom, and brother helping them out… The one sure way to get yours rockin’ and rollin’ is to get out there and join other people’s on their blogs, make friends with other bloggers, and learn how to drive traffic to your site through strategic syndication alliances (your tribe).

Here’s how you add the Google Friend Connect… essentially you just set up a free account, click on ‘members gadgets’ and copy and paste the html code into a ‘Text’ widget on your blog… (Go to ‘widgets’, drag and drop the word ‘text’ over the right sidebar, copy and paste html code with any title you wish).

It’s that simple. There are many features with these that are extremely powerful, but for now get them up on your blog and start meeting the people that are taking the time to say, “Hi, I was here.”

Today’s very short video:

Coming up we will look at how to create a comment friendly environment… It’s about growing a community right on your blog.

Yours in support and mastery,

PS Some of these people that are on my Google Friend Connect and Facebook Fan Pages have quickly become some of my very best friends in my entire life. Hard to believe, I know… but true! I speak with many of them daily or several times per week. If it weren’t for having a blog, that definitely would not be the case. This is where we hang out too…  http://empoweredtribe.com

Blogging For Beginners: “How Can Tribe Syndication Bring Traffic And Social Credibility To My Blog?”

Published August 6, 2010 by Kary Rogney

One of the most creative and most effective marketing strategies I ever did was to create a graphic ‘blog roll’ page on my blog called ‘My Tribe.’

This page alone has had thousands and thousands of views and has helped bridge new blogging alliances for content/tribe syndication right from the beginning. Because I went out there and made the first move to promote others, many of these bloggers were willing to return the favor and also gladly promote my content all over the social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube.

This in turn has brought me over +59,796 page views in the first twelve months of my blog. I never could have done that without my tribe syndication network. I highly recommend doing this right away even if you don’t intimately know that blogger. It sure is a great foot in the door to open up that relationship for further joint ventures as well.

Don’t forget to get out on their blogs and comment, retweet, and interact with them, too. It’s natural for many of them to feel compelled to reciprocate those actions. It’s so simple and yet VERY wise to put this plan into action.

The idea of forming tribes around social media and blogs is catching on and for good reason. I’m sure you’ve heard about forming tribes for content syndication. If you have not… the idea is you network with a few people to promote each others content. There are many benefits around tribes and rapid exposure is just the start. But before we get into that I want to share a story of how this tribe was founded.

Earlier this last summer I finally came to the realization that I was going to start a blog. I had put off this concept for over 3 years. Many people would tell me to “Just start one.” “You need a blog to get your message out there.” “There’s a lot of money to be made by blogging.” All good points but I had my doubts.

Could I create a blog and provide enough content to keep readers coming back? How often do I need to keep feeding this blog thing? Do I need a technical degree to set it up? And the biggest question we all face is… How do I get traffic? So many questions… but I finally took the plunge and got a blog started with the help of a few friends.

As I was looking around at many different blogs I realized that some were just empty. There was no life, no energy… no community. I knew that I would face the same issues. How to get traffic? So I figured that if I had these questions, others did as well.

So I reached out to several people and proposed a blogging alliance. I was looking to create a mastermind group of a few people who would comment on each others blog and “buzz” each others content. Social Tribes for content syndication was born.

It was not hard to find a few people who caught the vision and wanted to play ball. They are all over the social media sites. Most of them are busy promoting their own content. However there are a few who seem to be climbing the social sites faster than others.

As I mentioned earlier this concept was the main goal at the time. Since then we have realized that there are many benefits to having a mastermind group that is focused on helping each other. And many incredible opportunities and joint ventures have sprung from our alliance.

There are 5 of us now in our blogging alliance. We all have different skills and talents. By pulling these resources together we have a long term vision to support and teach people the power behind content/tribe syndication and social media.

Results…

Within 12 months I had over 807 subscribers, had two dozen new business partners (savvy Internet marketers, too), earned a Black BMW Car Bonus with my company,  have made thousands in bonuses and commissions, have had people calling and paying me for personal mentoring, was asked by the president of a network marketing company to lead all social media training for the entire company, and much more!

This has all happened… not because I’m anything special… because I took MASSIVE ACTION on the activities that my coaches told me to do!

I can’t imagine marketing online without a TRIBE by my side and without them watching my back.

Today’s very short video:

Next time we will get into ways to boost you’re social credibility and proof online.

Yours in support and mastery,

PS The online Tribe Syndication community is a treasure trove of knowledge and friendships waiting to be made. Once I had my blog up and running, I easily found other bloggers to create a mastermind alliance with… This is a great place to start… http://empoweredtribe.com

Top 10 Reasons Why I Use Katie Freiling’s Unified Tribe Syndication Platform

Published June 15, 2010 by Kary Rogney

So it’s been over a month now since Katie Freiling launched her much anticipated Unified Tribe Syndication Platform. I had been eagerly waiting for it for over 6 months and when it became available I was eager to jump in and give it some action. And I’m so glad I did!

Below is a Top 10 List of why I use the Unified Feed for syndicating my content across the social media sites like Facebook and Twitter… The following video is where I pull back the curtain and give you a behind the scenes view of what it looks like and how easy it is to use.

  1. Autosyndication: I submit my content and links and people go to work sharing my posts and videos for me!
  2. Traffic: I’ve seen a MASSIVE increase in traffic to my blog since joining the Unified Tribe.
  3. More Business Partners: Weekly and sometimes daily I’m approached by new people who want to partner with me in one of my business opportunities.
  4. Social Credibility: Since I get so many ReTweets, Comments and people joining my Google Friend Connect and Facebook “Like” page, my benefit is increased social credibility.
  5. Personal Branding: Along with the increase in traffic and exposure comes and increase in my brand recognition. I have people telling me all the time that they see my content everywhere on the social media sites.
  6. More Comments: Increased traffic brings more people commenting on my content. When that happens I’m able to interact with visitors and create a community feeling and hub spot for learning.
  7. Community: In the Unified Tribe there is a massive community of like-minded entrepreneurs that I can network and mastermind with to reach my business goals. (Invaluable and usually overlooked.)
  8. Subscribers: I’ve seen a large increase of people subscribing to my blog for updates and for my free give away. This is one of my most valuable assets.
  9. Mentoring & Training: Within the community there is a ton of training and mentoring to learning key tips and strategies to be a better blogger, marketer, and entrepreneur.
  10. New Friendships: I’ve made some incredible new friendships with the community as well.

A New Trend In Micro-Content Blogging?

Published May 4, 2010 by Kary Rogney

Today is the first in what I’d like to say is going to be a very exciting transition for my blog’s purpose… In the past I’ve strictly posted my own original writing and content approximately once per week.

I’ve recently been inspired and handed a powerful and fun technique of sharing short reviews and recommendations of other top blogger content that I run across.

I’ll post my thoughts and insights about their content and also encourage you to follow the link I provide to go get “the rest of the story” for yourself.

By doing this I will have steady, new and short posts to pass on to you. I’ll still be creating my own original content regularly, too. And I’ll be drawing from the incredible minds of people I call friends, colleagues, tribe members, and mentors.

So head over the ScottScales.com and check out his post that started me on this new journey of blogging. His post is called “Does Size Really Matter? Discover The Real Story So You Don’t Come Up Short.” If that does have you curious, I don’t know what will. LOL

Til Next Time My Friends,

Her Unified Tribe concept turned out to be the ‘secret sauce’ for what I had been desperately searching for…

In this unique and creative model, Katie taught us to form a blogging alliance or syndication partnership to drive Internet traffic together through the social media networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube.

Guess what happened? Something amazing! As I promoted my Tribe’s content they reciprocated the promoting back to me, and I suddenly saw droves of visitors piling onto my blog almost over night! So much so, that I’ve had 40,547+ page views since launching my blog in August of 2009.
