Confucius Say, "To understand Social Media you must do."

Denver,Co- On my recent trip to Denver, CO I lost my precious notebook. While I still away. it's return I got this new notebook at a huge Barnes and Noble.

This quote...

I hear and I forget.
I see and I remember.
I do and I understand.
- Confucius

was exactly what I was looking for in reference to "Social Media Marketing" as it pertains to blogs, twitter, Myspace, Facebook, etc.

We hold this conference call for my associates regarding, "Social Media" and it was amazing to me how much I have learned but at the same time how difficult it is to explain how to do the things we are doing.

In fact this style of communication is really still coming into it's own. We are all still trying to figure it out but every once in a while you get a glimmer of hope...

• A web tv show that spotlights yours clients website, AirGorilla.com
• A happy customer that remembers who you are.
• Calls for gigs because of all the updates your doing. You are creating a Top of Mind Awareness.

Tip: Stop trying to intellectualize or justify the need to be on social media. Just jump into it. Learn by doing. Read blogs like this one, get a coach, follow the work of someone already successful online.

The greatest thing that you can do for yourself is just dedicate an hour or two a day to learning Social Media, email marketing and communicating.  Learn what works and what does not work by doing.

I hear and I forget.

We started the conference call with just a phone conference call. While we got some interest we still had people not doing anything out of frustration and not-understanding.

I see and I remember.

We then dropped the calls and our last two pitch sessions on DimDIm.com  and Gotomeeting.com. The participants actually got to "see" what we were doing and that helped immensely.

I do and I understand.

Finally a few of the participants on the call really got into it. Writing consistently, promoting onStumbleupon, twittering. In doing we saw new blogs and post get views upwards of 500+ on a brand new blog.


We would like to have some of our blogs hit 1,000+ views a day and we know how to get there to do it.

Conversion

Our next goal in tandem with increased traffic is to show financial results in the way of "conversion." We have had some success with this but not at the scale we would like.

I intend to keep you informed of the progress.It is absolutely working and invite any readers to share their experience and wisdom in these matters.
