We’ve learned that social media is not just a new medium to push messages through.. and that “buy now” links are not just ignored, but hated by users… so how do you make money? What is a profit when you are engaging in social media?

Our guest tonight is @TreyPennington Trey is not only one of the smartest, well connected social media speakers I know, he’s also a master at marketing.  If you want to be more successful in everything you do, listen to Trey tell his story and the methods he uses to get messages like yours out to millions

Do You Want MEGA Success?

Also on this week’s show, we’ll talk about how our network of givers is demonstrating social media results later this month.

On July 21st, millions of readers will get an email about a book that can change their life forever.

We’ll ask them to order a copy from Amazon.com.. and maybe send another as a gift to a friend.

Ordering a book is easy, inexpensive and can bring a tremendous value on its own, but we know how busy people get.. so we want to make sure they have a reason to buy the book on this day and have assembled more life changing audio downloads, eBooks, courses and SUCCESS information we can from dozens of partners who have their own great content.

The result will be a best seller rank, allow author Barbara Hofmeister to publicize here work at a new level.. and thousands will get the opportunity to connect with new ideas from Barbara and our many partners.

The book is called To Be or Not To Be – The Choice is YOURS! .. More than a motivational book, it can be an action plan that will help you roadmap your life.

Mark your calendar for July 21st. It’s MEGA SUCCESS DAY.. better yet. Go to the MegaSuccessDay Facebook Page now and click the LIKE button to see more exclusive content there.

We just finished the first full day of the
#PUBCON event here in Vegas.

After speaking at
Twitter
Landscape – Hot Topics and Trends this morning, meeting with
dozens of my tweeps and sitting through 4 sessions by Twitter experts, I was
invited to a special session where @pubcon attempted to get a large room of
people to tweet their way into trending topics (we did a lot of
networking instead). I barely made it out in time to do a final proofread on the
Smart Networking social
networking giveaway (74 free gifts here)

But we are just getting started.

#pubcon or just hanging out, tweet me at

Expo. I’ll be meeting with webmasters, bloggers and any of my Twitter friends
inside the expo or in the lobby of the
Las Vegas Convention Center. We’ll be
taking photos and shooting video too. Events like this are great ways to get
interviews and give interviews.. creating great content for your blog.. or just
a cool pic to tweet about.

Someone once said: Change is inevitable. Any savvy online entrepreneur who wants to remain at the forefront understands that change requires surfing the bleeding edge of technology.

So the question in our minds must always be: “What’s on the horizon and how can I use that to get ahead of my competitors today?”

Thirty years ago, there was no internet. Five years ago YouTube was still just a dream. If you watched Biz Stone and Evan Williams on The View this morning, you’ll know that three years ago, Twitter didn’t tweet.

Today, we literally don’t have to leave our computers to book a flight, pay a bill, shop or even connect with a tribe of like minded individuals.

The Internet, YouTube and Twitter are part of our daily lives.

No one could predict the impact each development would have. In fact Bill Gates famously admitted:

“Sometimes we do get taken by surprise. For example, when the Internet came along, we had it as a fifth or sixth priority. It wasn’t like somebody told me about it and I said, ‘I don’t know how to spell that.’ I said, ‘Yeah, I’ve got that on my list, so I’m okay.’ But there came a point when we realized it was happening faster and was a much deeper phenomenon than had been recognized in our strategy.”

Don’t get taken by surprise!

I don’t remember what life was like before Twitter but I’m starting to think about what life could be like after Twitter is gone. (Gasp! Did I just say that?! Twitter = Gone? Really?)

Now that Twitter has entered the mainstream, does it change the Twittersphere?  Is it possible to engage when you have a million PLUS followers?

You betcha!  As long as you focus on reaching people and engaging them with RELEVANT information, ENGAGING content or ENTERTAINING broadcasts.

JOIN COACH DEB & Chat LIVE!

Now that so many tweeters are using auto-follow robots to increase their followers on Twitter  by 1,000 – 2,000 a day, is anyone really listening anymore? Has Twitter reached the tipping point of being irrelevant?

Should Twitter remove the follower count from profiles? These are the debates raging in the Twittersphere these days – ever since Ashton Kutcher and Evan Williams introduced Oprah to Twitter on her show.

One of the questions I’m asked most often is how to increase followers?  But if you focus only on building your followers… your tweeps… you’re ignoring one of the key questions you should be asking yourself: where will I be if Twitter shuts down tomorrow?

Join me this Thursday for a special Ustream LIVE broadcast where I’ll my secrets for growing your list and attracting powerful influencers so you’ll know what to do when the Death of Twitter comes.
