Thanks to Jennifer Abernethy of The Sales Lounge Jennifer for being such a fun and informative guest on the free RLM Studio teleseminar this month! I’ve been fielding emails of “thanks” for days since the live call!

Here are a just a few take-aways from our fun informal chat:

• Don’t add your URL to someone’s Facebook wall when you “friend” each other. Too much of that and Facebook may shut you down!
• Key to social media marketing success is to participate. Be active. Call someone – interact.
• Do at least one status update a day – make it interesting.
• Don’t sell non-stop. That is not really “participation.”
• Balance your tips/information/resources/promotions. Don’t do too much of any one of those things.
• Keep in mind – everything you say will be seen by the general public. Only put things out there that want tied to your name … forever.
• Check your mindset – know why you’re on a particular social media outlet. Then focus on that reason.
• Be yourself.

Just for fun: Here’s a link to Jennifer’s promo video about her book, The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Social Media Marketing. Have you grabbed your copy yet? I pre-ordered mine from Amazon.com.
