Social Media Tips: The 7 Universal Laws of Social Marketing Success and Profits
Do you know how to use social media and social marketing to succeed in your business? You will when you read and use these 7 Universal Laws.
There are many different opinions on how to be successful with social media and social marketing, and whether it’s worth it. To that end, here are the 7 Universal Laws for Success and Profits from Social Marketing.
The law of relationship – All this social media is based on relationship. Gone are the days when she could simply launch a website, get some traffic, and make sales, all while hiding behind her computer. If those days were really here… Social marketing is all about the relationship you have with your followers, prospects, and customers.
The law of connection – People are hungry for connection in all its forms. They are equally hungry to feel part of something bigger than themselves. This is a very strong part of human nature.
The 80/20 Law – I see people blow this all the time and they don’t even know how much it hurts. On any social marketing site, you want to be 80% social and 20% marketing. Remember, it’s about relationship and connection. Do the relationship and connection part, and you can market on social media. Don’t and you will be ignored.
The law of belief – There are still a lot of people out there, some of them big name marketers who should know better, who say they don’t believe in social marketing. This is a case where it’s kind of like gravity, it doesn’t matter if you believe in it or not for it to affect you.
The law of scope – If you want to expand your reach on the Internet, social networks are the right place. By strategically using Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and other social networking sites, you can greatly expand your reach far beyond traditional Internet marketing.
The Law of Success – This arena is still very much the “Wild West” and there is still time and space for you to be very successful in your niche. You can become a thought leader in your niche when you take proper advantage of social marketing.
The law of profit – There are those who still claim that you cannot profit in any way with Social Marketing or Social Media, much profit directly. I hope those people continue to be my competition. And yours.
