Thanks for the use of the premises.
Easier explained
than done…
Before they buy from you – two obstacles
need to be overcome:
Ego
Money
Name
Business and what your business is about
What you want to achieve at this
seminar
All you need to do, is sit on your
computer and it will happen…
Social Media will not:
1. Make you a millionaire overnight
2. Help you sell a poor product or service
3. Make up for a bad website
4. Get your story on the front page of a
big-name publication
5. Force people to buy your product if it
does not meet their needs.
You can not stop with your
traditional marketing
Quality is more important than
quantity
It is NOT about conversation – it is
about engagement

should be to reach your number 1 goal.
