Day 8 — Social Networks & More

It was a hodge podge of items today, fitting in what I could between client work. I got another new project from a client yesterday–sort of a spin off from the one I mentioned on Monday. Both are projects for a mutual fund company.

Marketing-wise, I spent some time on Linked In. I keep hearing buzz about it lately so I spent some time writing recommendations for people in my network and also posting a question to their Answers section. I was also excited to see I’d gotten a Best Answer designation from an answer I gave the previous week about teleseminars. Linked In, more than other social networks, is about building credibility with people who don’t know you well. And all these moves will help you do so. They also have a feature to allow your profile to come up in Google searches, which is another nice perk.

Also spent a few minutes in a forum for solopreneurs and on Facebook. Facebook is good for getting on people’s radar screens, but to me Twitter is much more effective (and fun!).

Also started discussions with a buddy about yet another teleseminar. Hopefully, we’ll set a time this week to finalize that.

And I spent a few minutes formalizing my local press list. It’s always better if you can send a press release directly to the person who would be interested in the topic–instead of just relying on the distribution services. Once my new website it launched, I have two press releases I need to send out.

Again, 0% of my daily income total–and I’m realizing now I should have probably tracked dollars earned instead of dollars paid since I tend to have fewer, large projects rather than daily sales. Oh well, live and learn.
