JoelComm.com - How to Fail at Social Media

The Latest from Joel Comm

The are numerous articles, blogs and courses designed to demonstrate proper usage of social media. But I find the most instructive lessons are those derived from social media failures… those instances where someone's use of Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter or G+ are so egregious that it's impossible to not walk away with a better understanding of how to use the social space. 

Are you ready for a sterling example of what NOT to do when using social media?

JoelComm.com - Google vs Bing: Which to Choose?

The Latest from Joel Comm

A long time ago, Yahoo! was the search engine of choice. Well, more of a directory than a search engine, there was a time when they were king of the hill.

Along came InfoSeek, Lycos, Altavista, Excite and a number of other search engines, including Microsoft's MSN. By building the browser into the operating system, Microsoft hoped to dominate the web. It didn't work out that way.

Google launched and seized the majority of search traffic with their superior algorithmic formulas. My, how quickly things can change.

Here we are in 2013. Google is still dominating the search space, but Microsoft's Bing.com has come on the scene with some fairly impressive features.

I've tested both and the results are fairly similar. However, I have made a choice as to which search engine will be my default going forward.

JoelComm.com - So, What Do YOU Do My?

The Latest from Joel Comm

So What Do YOU Do?
2013-09-25 00:10:32-04
What's the most popular question asked when you meet someone for the first time? After the handshake and pleasantries of the name exchange are complete, it is most common for one person to ask this of the other... So, what do YOU do?

The question is common, yet the answers that proceed forth can be as unique as snowflakes. You see, I believe that every single person on the face of the earth is uniquely gifted with passions, talents, skills, abilities and personality. Like snowflakes, there are no two alike. And if that's true, it means that each person is designed to bring unique value to the world around them.

Here's your opportunity to share what YOU do with the world via my blog. To find out how, click here to read more...

The Most Powerful Tool for Engaging Your Customers

Hey My,


Social media is powerful stuff. Video is a great way to communicate and
share your message.


But Email is still the MOST powerful tool for connecting and engaging with
your customers.

It's been quite some time since I have shared something like this with
you. That's because I haven't seen anything quite like this in quite
some time!

http://tinyurl.com/respond1


If you think double-digit sales conversion rates are a thing of myth,
they're not.

Not by a long shot.

There are a relatively small handful of entrepreneurs that have tapped
into a psychological "loop-hole" that almost FORCES their prospects to
become their customers and clients for life.

Here's a hint. It happens via email.

Understanding how to use email ethically and properly, these entrepreneurs
are converting as much as 12.98%, 15.89%, and even up to 46.8% of their
online visitors into raving fans.

Now I am using the methods that have been discovered and I lose absolutely
nothing by sharing these same strategies with you.

It's actually pretty incredible stuff, so I feel very comfortable sharing
this link with you today.

Check out these real-life results from others using this legitimate system:


88 sales from 317 visitors = 27.76% conv ($19.99/mo product)

250 sales from 600 visitors = 41.46% conv ($77 product)

600 sales from 2431 visitors? (That's 24.68% conv.
on a $77 product)

125 sales from 787 people = 15.89% conv ($397 product)

126 sales from 971 people = 12.98% conv ($1,000 product)


That could be YOU!

This is serious business. And if you are serious about converting more
of your traffic to buying customers, then you must check this out right
away!

http://tinyurl.com/respond1

Do good stuff,

Joel

P.S. - I have this system and USE this system. It works. Period. As a
result, I am pleased to be an affiliate and share the system with you.
I may generate a commission from products purchased through my link.
The key to affiliate marketing is finding a great product and sharing it
with others.

JoelComm.com - I Hate My Latest Podcast

The Latest from Joel Comm

Sometimes things fall in place. Sometimes they don't.

I have been out of town for a few days, so tonight I sat down to record my podcast for this week. As I usually do, I decided what I wanted to talk about, created a basic show outline and sat down at my microphone to record it. One hour later I listened to the 35-minute episode I had just created...

I hated it.

Here's why --> Read more...

JoelComm.com - How I Farted and Came Out Smelling Like a Rose

The Joel Comm Show - Episode #7

Once upon there was a boy with an iPhone. Being an adolescent in an adult body, the man-child thought it would be amusing, and perhaps profitable, to create an iPhone application simulation bodily functions. The rest, as they say, is history.

In the new episode of The Joel Comm Show, I go behind-the-scenes of the one of the world's most successful novelty iPhone apps to share how iFarted… and came out smelling like a rose. In the life segment of this episode, I get transparent by sharing one of my greatest fears, and how I overcame it.

JoelComm.com - The Joy of Painting (with Joel?)

The Latest from Joel Comm

A long time ago in a galaxy far away (1989, to be specific), I was a young man who was learning how to do sales. While I won't go into specifics of what I was selling, I found myself busy many evenings meeting with people in their homes. That meant I had time to kill during the day.

One day I was flipping through the television channels and I came across a kind-spirited, smiling man wielding a paint brush on PBS. His name was Bob Ross, and his show was called "The Joy of Painting".

I was fascinated by the way Bob would take a blank canvas, a palette of ten colors, and in one 30-minute episode transform the canvas and colors into a beautiful landscape with fluffy little clouds. I was so fascinated that I went to Hobby Lobby to buy canvas, oil paints (who knew Alizarin Crimson and Phthalo Green were legit colors?) an easel and a how-to book.

And now, for the first time ever... I am putting my "art" on display for the world to see. (shudder...)

Hey My,

If you listened to my podcast from this week, you will have discovered the single most important thing I have done that has dramatically impacted my business... and my life.

That thing is that I wrote a book.  If you haven't listened to my podcast yet, I encourage you to do so because what I share with you can profoundly change your life as well.

http://joelcomm.com/?p=3976

(Incidentally, this was the most-listened to episode of my podcast so far... I hope you will listen in.)

However that's not why I am writing you today.  But there is definitely a tie-in!

If you are an author of a book or if you WANT to be an author, this is what you need to do on October 24-27 in Las Vegas...

Click this link ===> http://bit.ly/authoru

Author 101 University is THE annual event for marketing and publishing success!

I have 17 books under my belt (including foreign translations), and even I am going to this event as an attendee!  (I am NOT speaking.  That ought to tell you how important I believe this is!)

No more excuses. If you are ready to get serious about expanding your reach and grow your business, I want you to MEET ME at Author 101 University.

In fact, I have made it easy for you to do so.  I am friends with Rick Frishman (of Chicken Soup for the Soul fame), and I have negotiated a special discount for you.

Enter code "Earlybird13" when you sign up and you will get $150 off the price of your entry fee!

Click this link ===> http://bit.ly/authoru

Look, I don't need to beg you to join me there.  Your future is up to you.  But I can tell you this... what you will learn and the contacts you will make at Author 101 University will cause you to thank me for inviting you.  I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever.

So get signed up, and make it a point to connect with me in Las Vegas.  I'd be happy to spend some time with you discussing your book or your book idea.

See you in Vegas!

Do good stuff,

Joel

P.S. - The speakers lined up for this event are going to blow you away.  Be ready to take notes and then apply what you learn.

P.P.S. - I am an affiliate of Author 101 U and may generate a small commission from tickets purchased.  But since you are getting a discount, more money stays in your own pocket!  I'm just fine with that because you really need to be at this event.

What was YOUR first job, My?

The Latest from Joel Comm

It feels like I've been making websites since the beginning of time. But I know that isn't the case because I actually did have a life before the world wide web was ever invented. In fact, I had a number of jobs before I became an Internet entrepreneur. And with each experience, I learned something that has helped me to get to where I am today. 

I thought it would be fun to attempt to document what I did before I became an Internet entrepreneur, author and speaker.
