Chelsea Manalo‘s victory as Miss Universe Philippines has been monumental because she is the first Filipino woman of black heritage to represent the Philippines in the 73-year history of the Miss Universe pageant. And while many celebrated her victory, there were still those who raise the race card and asked if she is “Filipino” enough to carry the country’s flag in a global arena. But for “La Bulakenya,” being of mixed race is an advantage. “We are already representing multicultural aspects that we have, for diversity, for inclusivity in the Philippines. And to bring that to a universal stage, what […]...

Whenever we create digital content, we reference other web pages, either for further reading or to give a credit. In most cases, we link out in order to create better content and provide the reader with more information on the subject.

But did you know that links can provide further value for your business? If you approach it strategically, linking out can actually bring leads and business contacts.

How to Link From Your Content to Build Leads and Connections

Digital marketers often identify social media as one of the best forms of content marketing, but it can often feel like we’re just going through the motions. If the social media content isn’t attracting leads, what good is it? It’s likely you just need a quick boost in strategy to make sure your content is appealing to your target audience and getting inbound requests and messages.

In fact, 90 percent of social media users have used the platform to communicate directly with a business before. So if none of your customers or followers are reaching out to you, it’s a telltale sign that something should be changed. Ideally, you’ll post a picture or video with a robust caption that offers value and the floodgates will open: direct messages, likes, comments and queries should start coming (or even just trickling at first) in, proving that your content struck a chord and inspired action. Not there yet? Here are four ways to bolster your strategy to attract those leads.

1. Focus your content on interesting stories
2. Do a poll asking what type of content people want most
3. Host a Q & A on Facebook or Instagram Live
4. Make sure you have a call to action in every post

No he doesn't does he?

I'd laugh if I ever turned on the TV and stumbled
across a day time talk show where the host was
sitting there on the phone trying to coax people into
being a guest of their show using hard sell cold
call techniques.

But why?

Is Dr. Phil the best psychologist around?

I'm sure if you asked other psychologist they would
roll their eyes at you and go into 20-minute
discussion about why he's a hack.

Well if he's not the best then why do people line up
to be guests on his show?

The answer is simple. It's Marketing . . .

He has a show that allows him to access the entire
world each and every single weekday.

Massive exposure is his game.

All he has to do is at the end of one of his shows
flash a 20 second message about the type of person
he'd like to have on his show in the future along
with a number for those people to call in for more
details and the phone lines light up.

Getting people to call you is drop dead easy when you
have exposure and that's the secret. Get your
offer in front of as many people as you can and odds
are some of them are going to be interested in
it.

And you don't even have to be the best or have the
best product. If you can learn the game of massive
exposure you can be second best and still win way
more than the best.

So as a network marketer your first job is to get
your offer in front of as many people as you can and
you win.

Important to note though . . .

Although Dr. Phil is NOT the best psychologist going,
because of his exposure he DOES do more good for
the world overall than even the best psychologists.
His messages reach millions where a psychologist
with less exposure, his or her, message only reaches
as many people as he can see in a day.

You do more good in the world if you master the art
of marketing but you're only an ok network
marketer than you do if you're the best network
marketer out there working the phone lines or
approaching people one on one.

Be a master marketer if you want to make the most
positive change possible with your business.



Leverage the awesome power of the Internet and open
your business to a whole new world of massive
exposure. A world where with, one swift push of a
button, you can literally recruit as many people as
you want. A world where they call you. Here's how:

On February 27–28, 2017, Priest David Mezynski, associate dean for Student Affairs at St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary, presented four lenten reflections during the two days of intensive liturgical services that annually mark the beginning of Great Lent for the seminary community. Using a story-telling format and employing a variety of sayings from the desert monastics, Father David focused on the theme of gratitude as the fruit of repentance, and especially pinpointed two main obstacles to true repentance: 1) feeling no awareness of sin, with a consequent refusal to change; and 2) possessing a despairing attitude, with a consequent inability to receive forgiveness.
