Today I want to tell you about an amazing course that I’ve recently enrolled in called Take Action Social Media. It is an online course that you can do at your own pace presented by Karen Clark.   If you are looking to learn anything about facebook, twitter, linked in, facebook fanpages, or even a blog, this course is one you should definitely take!

I have tried several other courses and listened to other speakers in Social Media before and they were informative but I felt like I didn’t have any action steps or that I had to pay even more to get help with the step by step processes. With Karen and her Take Action Social Media course she gets down to the steps you need to do to get yourself out there in social media. She has self evaluations where you will evaluate yourself and your progress so that you know where you need to start. She shows you how to find things like Insights for your fanpage so that you can actually SEE the difference that the course is making for you.

In addition to all the wonderful information that you will get through the course itself, Karen hosts a monthly webinar where you can come and ask any questions you have about social media. She walks you through the answers and helps you to understand the inner workings of Social Media.

The best part of the Take Action Social Media course is the cost. I have tried other courses that gave a lot less information and paid more to take them! The cost for the course is really, really low and you get SO much from it.

So take a look at the course and what it can offer you.  Harness the power of the internet to grow your business or get you more exposure.  You won’t be sorry that you did. Again, the link is http://www.TakeActionSocialMedia.com.

Today, I would like to tell you about the BEST person out there to help you with your online presence. Her name is Karen Clark of MyBusinessPresence.com. She is an amazing business person who has a tremendous knowledge of the internet and how it all works. Before I met Karen, I knew how to get online and that was about it. She taught me the basics of pretty much everything online and walked me through everything I needed to create my own online presence. Over the years, I have come to rely on her down to earth opinions and well researched knowledge. There are still times when some of my online friends will start to spread rumors about this or that and I know that all I need to do is go to her blog or website and she has already addressed it!

One of the things that I love the most about the many trainings that I have experienced with Karen is that the things you need to do are so easy! If you are an experienced web-person or a newbie there is always something that you can take away from her trainings to improve your online presence and to set yourself apart from the others out there.

I’m sure you are wondering what the cost of her trainings are if I recommend her so highly.  She is so CHEAP!  For the value of the trainings and classes she gives her prices are really reasonable!  I have been to trainings by some other “experts” in Internet presence and I felt like I took nothing away and paid a lot more to go.  You will get far more for your money than you expect and in comparison to others, her services are a great deal.

Because of the trainings I have received from Karen, I have created an online presence for myself and my business.  I highly recommend Karen to everyone I meet because I know that every thing that she teaches has tremendous value and that best of all, she won’t stear you wrong.

So check out what she has to offer you, your company and your friends.  You will be SO glad you did.

I am currently in San Diego California at the DSWA (Direct Selling Women’s Alliance) Leadership Retreat. It has only been 5 hours in classes and I have learned so much! I truly believe that attending the DSWA Celebration or Leadership is the single best thing that you can do for you Direct Sales business.

We have over 647 years of experience here at the leadership retreat! In addition to all the classes the PEOPLE that are here are absolutely amazing! I have made new friends and connections that will last a lifetime. Everyone is SO positive and caring. They know that when THEY succeed, you succeed.

I have attended so many other meetings where the intentions of the attendees are less than pure. In comparison, the DSWA meetings are centered around education and caring for each other.

If you haven’t checked it out, visit DSWA.org or get tips from the retreat in real time on Twitter with the hashtag #dswalr. There are several of us tweeting some gems. :o)

Twitter hashtags can be a lot of fun if you know how to use them. Basically you use the # symbol followed by whatever you would like to tag something in. Some hashtags are:

#followfriday
#ff (also follow friday, just shorter)
#quote (used if you are quoting someone)
#diy (do it yourself)
#latenightsnack
#golf
#nfl

etc. The benefit of using hashtags is that if someone else is wanting to get in on that conversation or find out information about something like #nflplayoffs then they can search all the twitter feeds by that hashtag and see what is going on.
It is a fun way to connect with new people and also to simply search by subject.

A few words of warning. Don’t overuse. If you are using a hashtag on every tweet, it gets a little boring. When using a hashtag, they only recognize the letters directly following the # symbol. Any spaces or dashes, etc. will end the hashtag. So rather than using #season-finale be sure to use #seasonfinale

To find more popular hashtags, login to twitter and look for the trending topics column. Those are the most commonly used hashtags at the time. Join in the conversation with something intelligent and meaningful to say and have fun.
