Make more by giving more away

I’ve learned that when you give something, you are likely to also receive… something…. at some point.

Giveaway Boost is a wordpress plugin that allows you to run giveaways for your business and boost exposure.

You create an amazing giveaway, create an offer that you share with a few people that allows them to enter the contest to win the giveaway.  When they share your offer they increase their chances of winning the contest.  This leads to more people learning about the giveaway and also wanting to increase their chances of winning the contest, thus sharing with more people.  This viral manipulation creates exposure that is hard to achieve with other marketing tactics and can be done at the expense of only the giveaway.

Another software that does this is Sociamonials.com

 

Twitter in the Napa Valley

I’ve been playing with twitter recently. @wcrllc for winecountryresources.comLLC.  I’m in the build and observe mode right now.  Slowly learning the ropes of how everything works.

Luckily the Napa Valley has a pretty substantial twitter network, mostly made up of local businesses.  But staying connected to businesses is good for winecountryresources, these are the people I want to connect with and show that I can write articles about them and help them.  I’ve read more than once, that being apart of a conversation and helping others will lead to your own success.

I need to start being apart of the conversation and not just observing though.  It doesn’t have to be a profound statement, but it should be useful to my followers.
