“7 Ways To Leverage Your Unique Content”

Wisdom From Dr. Mani

Today’s guest post is from one of my favorite persons, Dr. Mani. I have referred to him on this site, and you can see his organization on my page entitle “Giving Back — People Making A Difference.”  Dr. Mani knows about living for a cause, “making it” online, and helping others to do the same: especially in the area of information marketing.

I received his email today with a title that read “How To Leverage Remarkable Content,” read it, quickly sent off a note to him saying…“This is a great article: can I use it a guest post on my blog?,” and he gave me the proverbial thumbs up.

Lots of good stuff here: enjoy!

“How To Leverage Remarkable Content”
by Dr. Mani

Once you’ve created fascinating content, it isn’t enough to just sit back and wait to be discovered!

Your top-class content may never be found… unless you spread word about it first.

There are many different ways to do this, and in my 115-page guide, “Think, Write & Retire!” I teach them to infopreneurs in great detail.

Tips And Tricks

Here are some tips and tricks to syndicating your content far and wide, so that you create that initial buzz which can then intensify and spread even wider.

1. Post it to article directories

If you’ve written a fantastic article, submit it to EZINE ARTICLES (www.EzineArticles.com), and a handful of others like:

* Buzzle.com

* IdeaMarketers.com

* GoArticles.com

* ArticlesBase.com

Want to get even wider exposure? Consider using a service like ‘Unique Article Wizard’ to get your article automatically sent to hundreds of directories, from where other web publishers can pick it up and use – thereby sending you traffic.

2. Publish it on blogs

You’ve got a blog, right? Publish your article on it, with a link to your opt-in page, or sales letter.

But don’t stop there. Send it to other top blogs in your niche, and give permission to the blog owner to use the content, if they want to. If they accept guest posts, send them your own article (re-written to fit the blog’s style) as one.

3. Reprint it on authority websites

No matter what niche you’re involved in, you’ll find popular websites you could send your articles to for publishing. As long as you’ve created a useful, content-rich piece, quite a few website owners will be happy to use your content, with a link back to your site.

4. Convert it to a PDF

Your article is typically in text format. Make a PDF (portable document format) file of it, using free online resources like www.YouConvertIt.com

You can then submit it to ebook directories like:

* eBookDirectory.com

* GetFreeEbooks.com

* Free-Ebooks.net

There are many more, including some niche directories that may be a better fit.

Also, submit the PDF version to other document directories like:

* Scribd.com

* DocStoc.com

* DocShare.com

Make sure the PDF has links back to your website (opt in page or sales page), so that these high traffic resources will funnel some of their visitors to your site.

Just this one simple tactic can bring you hundreds of visitors, and this grows with every new ebook/PDF you submit.

5. Make a Video

Any article can be converted into a video, without getting too fancy. Just film yourself reading your article aloud, or add a slideshow of some images relevant to your niche, which will run in the background while you quote from your article.

Some people even make slide shows of the article content!

The important part, however, is to then submit the videos you create to the various directories, each of which will give you a link back to your site, and send traffic your way.

A free tool that you can use is:

* Tube Moghul – tubemogul.com

A more robust paid version is Traffic Geyser

6. Create an Audio version

A simple audio recording of you reading out your article can give you extra exposure to a new stream of traffic.

Podcast directories will accept your submission of this audio version of your article. By having a series of such audios, you could have a channel set up on a niche topic.

7. Design PowerPoint Presentations

Many articles can be converted into a Power Point presentation, which again allows you to submit it to new resources like:

* SlideShare.net

* AuthorStream.com

* SlideBoom.com

Whew! Did you even know of these 7 ways to extend your reach after creating remarkable content?

Yes, it’s hard work and takes time. But think about it this way. You’ve spent time and invested energy (or cash) creating top class content. You profit in proportion to how many people consume your content.

So, why leave potential traffic on the table by doing only the bare minimum – after you’ve already done the hardest part of the job, by creating killer content?!

You could literally be getting 10 times as much traffic from every article you write, every piece of content you create, if you are diligent about milking the most value from it.

Try it and see.

Oh, and I almost forgot. With the potential to ‘go viral’ by word of mouth thanks to the power of social media networking, your efforts may potentially pay off ONE HUNDRED TIMES more!

Don’t back down so close to the tipping point.

Push harder, and get over the hump – when the ride downhill becomes easier, faster, and far more exciting!

Today I am sharing with you a guest post from Natasha Nassar.  Recently she engaged her readers regarding some personal thoughts on the topic of being a successful business person.  In her article entitled Climbing The Ladder Of Success, Natasha’s story woven in with her insights made for some great reading in my mind.

Before Your Read…

• Settle down.
• Relax.
• Take in the story involved.
• And see how you could help yourself or others who may find themselves somewhere on the playing fields of their own business adventures.

Here ya go…

Climbing The Ladder Of Success
by Natasha Nassar

Where are you situated on the ladder of success?

Are you jumping from the bottom rung of one ladder to the bottom rung of another ladder, or are you climbing up?

Mr. Glankler And The Success Ladder

A close friend of my family, and the co-founder of one of the oldest and largest law firms in Memphis passed away a few years ago. He was one of the most well-respected individuals in all of Memphis, and I would venture to say in Tennessee. He was a “great” man, a term I reserve for people who dedicate their lives to making a difference in the lives of others and living their lives in an honorable way.

I learned so much from Mr. Glankler over the years, and a lot of it came in the form of mottos. One in particular, on the topic of success, is so powerful that I just had to share it with you. He said:

“The ladder of success

is only crowded at the bottom, so keep climbing, but with honor”

When you think about it, everyone who joins a business does so with the intention of succeeding. When they do so, they are at the bottom of the success ladder.

The statistics don’t lie. The vast majority will stay at the bottom of the ladder, while only a small percentage will climb up to the top of the ladder and attain “success”.

For the most part, the difference in the person at the top and the person at the bottom isn’t that one is a “super recruiter” while the others are simply doomed to fail. Not all “successful” people are 100% extroverts blessed with the gift of selling.

So, what makes the difference in success and failure?

They Don’t Quit

As the old saying goes, “Successful people do what unsuccessful people are unwilling to do”.

The successful people don’t quit. No matter what is thrown their way, they continue to climb the ladder.

The “rest” crowding the bottom of the ladder CHOOSE to be there.

• They make the choice to remain at the bottom every time they choose to watch TV over attending a training seminar or reading a book to improve their business.
• They make a choice to remain at the bottom every time they read a great training book, and then choose to leave it at that: instead of taking the action steps recommended in the book.
• They make that choice when they decide to spend their valuable time researching whether or not their company is doomed for failure instead of spending their time building their business.
• They make the choice to stay at the bottom when they choose to quit at the first sign of adversity.

Sadly, those who hop from business to business THINK they are hopping “up” the ladder, when in fact, they are hopping from the bottom rung of one ladder to the bottom rung of another.

They Grow In Honor

Another important aspect of Mr. Glankler’s motto is moving up the ladder with honor.

Mr. Glankler was a true man of honor. He was wounded on the island of Peleliu fighting for our country at the age of 17. He was awarded the Purple Heart for his valor. He was a brilliant trial-lawyer who dedicated his life to helping those who couldn’t defend themselves. Even after he retired in 2004 at the age of 78, he kept a watchful eye on justice by parading the banner of injustice in regard to predatory lending. He helped to pass the Predatory Lending Bill in Tennessee.

In everything he did, Mr. Glankler conducted himself honorably. This is what made him a great man.

That’s why it’s of the utmost importance to me (and hopefully to you) to grow your business in an honorable way.

• Don’t hype the opportunity to prospects,
• Don’t fudge the time and effort it takes to succeed in this business,
• Don’t exaggerate income potential.
• Don’t value the power of the buck over the well-being of another individual.

If you know someone is in a desperate financial situation, I wouldn’t go for the sale if you know they don’t have the ability for whatever reason, to do what it takes to succeed…unless you let them know on the front end that it takes time and effort to get the money rolling in.  I would (and I have) told them to get a job first if possible.

Help steer them in the direction of an opportunity to perhaps start for free, and then purchase the “deluxe package” once they have generated enough money.

And most of all, if you know the business isn’t a right fit, don’t be afraid to say “no” to the prospect. At the end of the day, you’ll feel better for doing the honorable thing.

The Moral Of My Story

The moral of the story: continue to do the daily tasks necessary to build your business, and I’ll look forward to seeing you at the top of the ladder of success!

The Success In Life Process

Let’s talk very briefly about success in life.  I would like to lay before you one more of the many, many “definitions” (thoughts, ideas, insights, etc.) regarding success.  This definition would apply to any number of people in a variety of settings.  Whether or not you find yourself in the world of attraction marketing, online or offline business of some sort, coaching, writing, or for that matter dealing with such topics as parenting, marriage, relationships, etc. — I believe it can apply.

The Success In Life Process
© Lee Wise All rights reserved

See it.
Share it.
Live it.
Do It All Over again.

See It

We “capture” success by choosing to see how it is and how it “works” in the first place.

We select an area (writing, speaking, home building, creating a business plan, etc.) and…

• Note the process.
• Observe the “style”
• Pay close attention to the steps.
• Or whatever!

And we pay careful attention to these matters based on: (1) our needs; (2) values; and/or (3) purposes for the moment.

Live It

Following our close and careful observations, we put into practice…

• Whatever we can
• However we can
• Whenever we can

In other words, we may not be able to do it all, but all we can do for the moment may be just enough to keep up the success pattern of living.

We learn. We do.  And we grow.

Share It

The beauty of “the good life learned” is that any aspects of the good life taken in can be given out for others to enjoy.

We share.  And in doing so…

• We make an impact.
• We create reputations.
• And we leave legacies: good, positive life changing legacies.

Do It All Over Again

Thankfully, the process does not end.  The “success in life process” allows us to…

• Learn.
• Repeat
• Grow
• Influence

In common terms… “Ya gotta love it!”

Time For You To Share…

Ideas, thoughts or comments that could help others?

If you enjoyed the post, the buttons on the blog make it easy to share.

Question: if you had to share your success thoughts for others to remember in a short statement, what would you share?  How would you put it to help others?

Tips On Success: Have Fun!
© Lee Wise All rights reserved

You know this happens and you may have even “been there/done that” yourself:

• People dive into the process of being successful (personal growth or business)
• They may start by incorporating fun.
• But within a very short time, they realize it is hard work and the fun simply falls by the wayside.

Can you think of a “most successful person” in the world that seems to have fun?

I can: Oprah Winphrey.

Think seriously about this:

• She began with nothing.
• She became a multi-millionaire.
• She has fun and appears to love helping others enjoy life.

You may not be a millionaire… yet.

You may have more than you need… or less than you would like.

But one lesson you can take away from people you know who seem to have “made it and made it well” — whether rich or barely making it — they make enjoying life a priority.

They celebrate often.

They celebrate well.

Now What About You?

How could you enjoy and celebrate… today?

What would you need to do in order to create the “fun habit” in your life?

Digging Deeper

• What would you share with a family member — including a child — on your tips for “having fun while accomplishing your goals in life,” what would you share?
• In training a team for your business endavors, if what would you think of first if you had to complete this sentence: “A common mistake in our lives is that when it comes to having fun and enjoying life we…”

Be Sure To Share!

If you enjoyed these brief success thoughts on having fun in your life, please share them with others. Continue to be a positive force in your world of influence.

Desire To Be A Positive Influence?
(Thee Simple Steps To Begin The Journey)
© Lee Wise All rights reserved

There are many ways of growing in your “influence level” with people.  These three steps are by no means inclusive… as you will see.

But they can serve to get you mentally involved in several of the many, many facets involved with influencing other people for all the right reasons.

Are You Clear About What Your Desire?

If you are seeking to be a positive influence in the life of another person, the first point is relatively simple:

Be clear about what you desire.

If another person seems to be blocking your influence in their live — for whatever reason — asking a simple question may help.

Such as… “Do they clearly understand what I need, want or desire in this situation?”

True confession: sometimes I am not as clear as I should be.  A child may not truly understand what a parent wants or a worker not be clear on the roles or tasks you would like he or she to be involved in (if you are the boss).

So, clarity is one thing.

But also do a motive check.  Why do you want this done?  And how important is it to you at this time?

Can you influence someone by simply “letting it go” and building the relationship that way?

In other words: seek to understand first.  Self understanding.  It goes a long way when you are trying to move forward in the “influence level” of your life.

Take A Look On The Inside… But With Others In View

Here’s what I mean: are your expectations correct?  What you think others are expecting of you — or from you — are these expectations…

Correct?
Accurate?
Based on truth?

Or could they possibly be clouded by your own “inside matters” in some way or another?

Sometimes being an influence on other people can take place just a bit more as you  simply realize that you can’t expect to “have it all right, all the time.”

You want to influence others by giving a speech or training them in some activity.  Maybe you are beginning a new adventure…

And the “but I’m not prepared enough” or “polished enough” or “expert enough” mental games you are playing inside are hurting who you could be as you try to be a positive influence in the lives of others.

Strive For Consistency, But Don’t Get Too Disturbed Along The Way

Allow your determination to move you forward … even in the midst of mistakes, wrong turns, or what could be seen as roadblocks.

• Do it better the next time.
• Adjust, readjust, and move forward.

Learn, grow, develop and share with others along your journey.  I don’t know how many sales pages I’ve read on the internet that contain stories about long, hard, learning-as-they-go times… until they made the first encouraging result.

My point: to be involved in the art of influencing others we strive to be consistent and move forward but we are also aware that we will not be perfect in our path of doing so.

Taking It With You…

• Are you clear about what you desire?
• Are your expectations accurate?  Can you move forward with the current ones?
• Are the hardships may be facing hindering or helping you get better and move forward?
• What do you see your next steps to make in terms of becoming a better influencer of people?  Will you begin to take them?
