Lead The Stampede

October 10, 2013 by Marc Guberti 2 Comments

When there’s a new idea, everyone heads for it. Each person tries to use that idea better than everyone else. Others try to use this idea in a unique way. Social media resulted in a stampede. There are hundreds of millions of people on various social networks while Facebook has over a billion users. Those users are in a tight competition.

3D printing resulted in a stampede. More people are learning as much as they can about this technology and using it. With a stampede comes chaos. Everyone is fighting for the top spot.

3D printing and social media are powerful, but they created stampedes. Too many people are competing for a small number of spots. The only way to become a leader of the stampede is to do something different. This doesn’t necessarily mean creating a new product. Doing something different can mean addressing a need and finding a solution for it. Instead of using social media to talk about as much as you can, specialize in a specific area.

The Ideal Steps To Learn From Mistakes

October 10, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

When people make mistakes, they often look at the big picture. Time and time again, I have said that it’s better to look at the big painting instead of that small scratch that is a micrometer long. However, when there’s a lot of misplaced paint on the canvas that everyone can see, it’s more important to learn from the mistakes than to primarily look at the big picture.

The first way to learn from your mistakes is to identify them all. If you’re honest with yourself, you are going to learn a lot. If you aren’t going to be honest with yourself, who do you have to trust?

The second way to learn from mistakes is to find the solution right away. Whether this means 5 minutes on Google, a few hours on Google, or even going to the library, you need to learn from that mistake.

The third way to learn from mistakes is to make sure you don’t perform the same mistake twice.

That’s all you have to do in order to learn from your mistakes. The next time you make a mistake, use these steps. The more you learn, the less mistakes you will make.

The World Of Abundance

October 9, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

Isn’t far from you. In fact, you’re living in that world right now. Books used to get sold out, and it took a long time before more shipped. Now, electronic books can’t sell out. There’s an unlimited quantity. Pens run out of ink and pencils get smaller and smaller. One keyboard allows you to type more than thousands of pens and pencils will help you write.

There used to be few options for a business. Now you can create a business on anything you want. If you’re a dog lover, you can create a business involving dogs.

All of the limitations have been removed from the playing field. The only limitations left are the ones you impose on yourself. There are abundant resources and opportunities for you to become successful.

We are living in a world of abundance, and there are an abundant amount of possibilities.

Why You Need Group Boards In Your Pinterest Strategy

October 9, 2013 by Marc Guberti 4 Comments

There are plenty of ways to schedule pins, but finding a free one is like enduring the Odyssey. On other social networks, there are multiple ways to schedule posts for free. I tweet every hour, but that doesn’t mean I’m on Twitter every hour.

You won’t be on Pinterest every hour, and when you aren’t on Pinterest, your boards aren’t getting updated. Group boards solves this problem. With a group board, you can have other people updating your boards for you. If you have 100 contributors for your group board, and each of those people pins on your board once a day, that’s 100 extra pins a day for that board. A board with a lot of pins is going to look better than a board that doesn’t have a lot of pins.

In addition, when another contributor joins your group board, your board gets put on someone else’s list of boards. This gives that particular board more exposure. If someone clicks “Follow All” on one of your contributor’s Pinterest account, your board also gets a follow which means you’ll get more followers as well.

Some group boards have millions of Pinterest followers because they are promoted on many Pinterest accounts, and they’re always getting updated since there are so many contributors. Since these boards are easily getting updated multiple times a day, the SEO value increases.

Not only will you gain an advantage, but your contributors will be able to share their content to a larger audience. Your contributors will be able to use your group board to get a bigger following and let more people know about something faster.

I am really excited to start my own group boards. If you are interested in becoming a contributor for one of my group boards, please go here and fill out the form.

5 Great Ways To Use Pinterest For The Holidays

October 8, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

The holidays are coming up, and marketers are scrambling to find ways to get more followers from the outburst of online traffic and sales. Pinterest is a social network that’s all about organizing pictures into boards. The unique way Pinterest is set up allows it to stand out from the crowd of other social networks. The average consumer on Pinterest spends $180 which is mammoth sized compared to all of the other social networks. It’s important to utilize the powers of Pinterest during the holidays, and I’m going to show you 5 ways to do that.

  1. Christmas lists are better told than hidden. You won’t get everything you want on your Christmas list if no one knows what to buy you. Friends don’t want to play the guessing game, and we want what we put on our individual Christmas lists. Imagine a way that you could tell all of your friends what you wanted for Christmas or other holidays while getting more sales. On Pinterest, there’s a way for that to happen. You can find pictures of the products that you want and pin them on a special board containing everything you want for the holidays. If you can, stick in some affiliate links. LinkShare has good options since Amazon Affiliate Links don’t effectively work on Pinterest.
  2. Use Pinstamatic. Pinstamatic allows you to turn text into pictures. If you want to turn the words of a motivational quotes into a picture, you can use Pinstamatic to get that done. Pinstamatic also allows you to write lists. If you want to write a list of your favorite authors or favorite books, then Pinstamatic is the right place for you.
  3. Host a giveaway on Pinterest. People are looking for any kind of deals they can find. Hosting a giveaway on Pinterest is a great way to get exposure. Better yet, you can giveaway one of your products. Even better yet, you can charge $5 to be eligible for the giveaway and give that money to a charity of your choice.
  4. Tell people about great deals. People want to know about the discounts. Some people will buy something just because of the discount. If you create a Pinterest board that displays the biggest discounts for a narrowed down selection of products, you will be able to get more sales.
  5. Create an Advent board. Create the board on the first day of December, and pin one thing on that board every day until Christmas day. Make sure all of the pins are connected to a main idea that flows as you add pins to that board. You can have an Advent board for some of the best books, the most inspirational quotes, tidbits of information, and so on.

Shoot For The Milky Way

October 8, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

Stars seem difficult to reach. It seems as if it takes a very long time before we can actually reach stardom. Some people see landing on the stars as difficult as taking a full court shot in a game of basketball.

Reaching stardom is only as difficult as you make it out to be. Some people need to take the full court shot to achieve stardom. Others think of it as making free throw. Most people think of it as the full court shot though.

I’m not saying that achieving stardom is as easy as taking the free throw. However, it’s not as difficult as taking a full court shot, or even a half court shot.

People are shooting for the stars because whether they think achieving stardom is easy or difficult, people recognize it as achievable. The star is reachable. Once you reach that star, you’re work is going to pay off in abundance.

What I don’t get is that many people stop at the star. How can you stop at shooting for the stars when it’s possible to shoot for the Milky Way? Why not shoot for the Milky Way from the very start? Are you settling for the stars, or are you going beyond?
