This video really emphasizes and explains the importance of your keywords used. I found it interesting that you would want to use the most popular keywords, seems like your drowning yourself out in a crowd but I realized with the SEO techniques learned in Events Listed you are capable of obtaining the highest rankings with the popular keywords. Incredible marketing strategy!!

Re: Protected: 3. Channels

Your Channel is the equivalent of a virtual profile you can customize to fit your own personality. It is just like having your own personal television channel that advertises for you 24/7. This is a incredible tool to use in marketing, it can save time and money while attracting business to you. What an important part of the new social media marketing.

I'm absolutely amazed by some of the statistics and the accomplishments of youtube over traditional media. This just reiterates where the future of social media is headed and why it is so important to stay ahead of the game. The videos contain very detailed, step-by-step descriptions on how to set up and manage your account. Very easy to follow for anyone whether your a beginner or an expert online.

Thank you

Setting up your profile in the back office of Eventslisted is a simple process. The information to get your friendfeed set up is there when you click on the link.
I have liked the friendfeed set up in my back office, because I can be more efficient in my daily work. The friendfeed gives me all the information I need with the people and businesses I am following.

Incredible video full of information on how to be a successful Social Marketer. Utilizing FriendFeed to pull all of your content from several different sites and put it in front of a huge audience. A huge timesaver!

Re: 10 - Payment Processing

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 14:17:34 -0000

A fast and secure way to get paid using Paypal, with a backoffice management platform like no other. All the accounting being handled, including invoicing for your own records helps make this the most simplified business to have. Having everything fully automated frees up time and saves money! This is awsome!!!

Re: 09 - Disputes And Forums

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 13:50:21 -0000

Proper channels for communication are key in handling disputes efficiently and effectively. This an excellent way for promoters to communicate with each other and be able to resolve any issues in the most professional manner.
I love having a place to go to directly meet like minded people. A key to be utilized when searching for events you want to promote.

Re: 08 - Tasks And Budgets

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 13:33:31 -0000

Wow, a complete system to help you organize and budget for your events. This is the most advanced site I've seen for planning, promoting and managing any event. This is a must have for any party or event planner.

Re: 07 - Promoting Events

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 02:03:05 -0000

An accounting system with the bells and whistles. I am not sure how this can get anymore automated and I said that about technology not to long ago. This makes viral marketing so simple!

Re: 06 - Publishing Events

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 01:30:31 -0000

This is so SIMPLE!!! Step by step process to publish an event. The more I get through this information, the more I realize this can be used for almost anything. Now I can see becoming a Super Promoter through Social Marketing Wizards is just not that hard.

Thanks for the marketing ideas.

Re: 05 - Messaging

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 01:16:58 -0000

This is a sophisticated system compared to some of the ones I have seen in the past. The hardest part of using an autoresponder system is getting the messages written.
I like that I dont have to write an email to everyone who becomes a fan on my site. It is all automated. This really takes efficiency to another level in my business.

Re: 05 - Messaging

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 01:10:20 -0000

The double optin feature is excellent for those who are list building. While building a list in high volume marketing, it is nice to be able to accept those in you fan club before they actually get in.

Re: 04 - Whos Who In The Zoo

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 00:42:22 -0000

The functionality of the site is amazing. Not only that, this is an extremely inexpensive way to market any service or product.
Also being able to market to a group of fans within you fan base only. Then in addition, being able to cross market to the whole fan base. This is power marketing...
This will become the number one tool used by Social Marketing Wizards.

Re: 03 - Adding Fans

KatyPeterson — Tue, 12 May 2009 00:36:14 -0000

Talk about quality of friends! Facebook doesnt have this quality control tool. I love that we can choose who our friends are, thus creating quality relationships.
Being selective about who your friends are here at EventsListed is a game changer as you would say Simon. That is what business owners like. Real relationships that provide a better quality of life. If you dont have great friendships, then what do you have anyway?

Re: 01 - Why Events Listed

KatyPeterson — Mon, 11 May 2009 23:29:41 -0000

Great information Simon -
Does this really surprise anyone? Look at where we were at when the internet started in the 90's. Now we are starting to integrate Web 3.0 widgets like Google Friend Connect. Probably be fully integrated with Web 3.0 in the next couple of years.
Marketing has taken on a new meaning. Main stream television is no longer the giant for marketing. It is the internet! You mentioned it Simon - YouTube... This is the medium for advertising. Now we can target our demographic audience for marketing. One can do it on their own and not have to hire corporate America (or the world now days).
You have painted a great picture into the near future of marketing. Marketing through campaigns is ideal, because you are marketing virally. Friends trust friends more than any ad ever could. This is powerful information

If you want a back door pass to get all this great information, become a fan and I will give you a VIP Pass.

Re: The Value Of Promoting On Social Networks

KatyPeterson — Wed, 06 May 2009 02:15:39 -0000

Thanks for the golden nuggets and the power of social marketing. I did not realize the power of social networking and the reach you can get from this form of marketing.
If done right in the early stages, getting your first group of people that will market for you is crucial. Then how many degrees will it go through the network with the word of mouth marketing. Very powerful strategies...

Re: The quality of what you do…

KatyPeterson — Wed, 06 May 2009 01:16:30 -0000

There is nothing more I love than talking to a wall. It takes me back to when I was a child and had to stand in front of the wall and stare at it. Cause I had behaved inappropriately. This is exactly what we are doing to each other in this digital world. Who wants to talk to a wall? This is not what the social sites are about. Although it seems this is what FB is promoting. Say your two cents and leave it at that with your comment. The weird thing is people love it. Isn't this interaction with out the interaction. hummm - oxymoron I guess.

Re: Selling yourself short? The business owners paradox

KatyPeterson — Wed, 06 May 2009 00:55:47 -0000

It is extremely important to find a happy medium in the marketing tactics you use. You might want to attract more customers by offering something for Free, just use caution when doing this because the real goal is to attract quality people you want to have as long time customers at your club. Most quality people going to a club are looking for something more than Free drinks. They are looking for like-minded quality people to meet and develop relationships with.

Re: Collective Wisdom Psychology

KatyPeterson — Tue, 05 May 2009 23:55:17 -0000

In the past, I have never really spent the time looking for and researching information. I was just the casual internet surfer, getting recipes, reading tabloid information, etc.
Now that I have become an internet entreprenuer, I have searched for some information and I cant figure out the good information from the bad. Sites like digg and technorati really make the difference in reputable information. I am thankful I did not start doing this before the social bookmarking sites came along.

Re: What practical experiences can teach you - which no school ever can

KatyPeterson — Tue, 05 May 2009 23:24:07 -0000

That is what I have loved about the way we have been taught by you Simon. It is the same method. We get enough instruction to know what to do and we have to implement our lessons for the week.
There is no way I could have read this information from a book. Then at some later date be expected to implement what we have learned. Yeah maybe some of it, but most of it would be lost in between the pages. These lessons are not easy, but with two of us as partners we have been able to figure it out. What great team work! Learning through experiences is the only way to get the best education.

Re: Scarcity, exclusivity & our word is our word

KatyPeterson — Tue, 05 May 2009 22:39:33 -0000

These are all great strategies. I have taken a lot of notes and know that I have a lot of homework to get done.
I really like the strategy of your personal network doing the work. Don't publicly try to get everyone in at once. Keep it to only those in your extended networks. Make sure they need a private pass or code to get in. If they slip into the party with out the invitation, make a big deal about it. They are special they got in and since they are contributing to the group they get to stay. It is a privilege.

Re: If you were a corporation, what’s your stock worth?

KatyPeterson — Tue, 05 May 2009 22:03:27 -0000

Are you the type of person that has the conversation at the party with everyone? or are you the person who can listen to the conversation and still hear the ones around you. Most people have no idea if they are one or the other. They have never consciously stood outside of themselves and watched to see how they interact with people and how people accept them.

I am now living in a conscious state of being, watching my every move. How I interact with people. Do I provide something of value? Or when I get done talking with people do they ask, what was that whole conversation about? There was nothing said and we talked for half an hour. This does really happen. We all know those kind of people. It has become important to me, because this is what I do. I have conversations with people. Through our conversations, people are able to make decisions if they want to work with our company. Sure we give them examples of what we do, but the meat and potatoes is in our conversations. Conversations of confidence and testimonies for reputation.

Re: Ranking number 1 on Youtube for a super competitive phrase

KatyPeterson — Tue, 05 May 2009 20:06:27 -0000

I get the chills thinking and knowing, that I was apart of something so much greater than I could have ever done on my own. Yes it is true, we beat the 800 pound gorilla. It only took a small army of people who were dedicated to completing an assignment. Most of us had no idea what we were doing and yet we followed orders (if you will). The tasks that we had to do were not that hard at all either. I wondered if I was doing it right at first (sheep following the shepard), then it all came together and the results were outstanding. I was going on blind faith.

After all I have learned and continue to learn, I will put Simon at the top of this industry as the #1 authority. He knows his stuff! This is why my partner and I have created our own business and will become super promoters for EventsListed. Not only will be super promoters, but we have set up our own company as well to teach the basics of social marketing and apply those skills in business. We also provide the businesses too. This will be a turn key system for anyone. If you are going to learn these skills, you might as well apply them in a business that will fetch you a nice ROI for your investment.
Why do I tell all of this to you? Not more than four months ago, I was just an average internet surfer. Site to site and not much more. Just having fun as a consumer. Well now, with our education, we were able to put together a company that is a win/win system for anyone. I owe it all to Simon, EventsListed and Social Traffic.
Thanks for giving me the tools to be able to reinvent myself and take another path. That will give me more freedom to be with the people I choose and not corporate America. To be self sufficient and provide for society and not take from society. Again - Thank you Simon.
