Social Media Madness

Social Media Madness – What is currently going on in the Social Media Networks?

OK Folks, Its been a while since I have brought up the topic but I just couldnt hold my tongue any more.  I look on twitter and all I see is a sea of Spam.  People have no idea how to use social media to build their online empire.

I look at some of the tweets and think to myself, “Are these people fricking for real?” People spamming their money making opportunity or stating that they have the best system to gather the most followers on twitter, etc.  I then go look at their following and they have like 500 followers.  GET REAL FOLKS!!!

The bottom line is that social media sites like myspace and facebook are places to meet people you already know.  Sure you may drive some untargeted, curious traffic to your squeeze pages.  You may tweet about your opportunity and get some curious eyes to your page, but I have to ask.  Are any of your leads converting at a high level?  The answer is NOPE!!  How do I know?  Cause I talk with people daily and find out what they are doing to build their businesses online.

The Endless Summer of an Internet Marketing Rockstar

Well Gang, its been a super long, super fun summer.  After a month on Maui, I slid over to NY to meet back up with my awesome wife Pamela and my two daughters Kaylee and Hannah in Upstate NY.

What a roller coaster summer.  I got to hang with friends I have not seen in 20 years and spend quality time with myself.

Internet Marketing and the rich’s that come along with making money online have truly created a lifestyle in which I can go where ever I want, when I want and stay as long as I want.

Most people only dream of being able to live such a life.

Government Bowlshit!!!

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled It with seed. What a beauty of
bird feeder it is, as I filled it lovingly with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds
taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.

But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue.

Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the chairs, the table … everywhere!

Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket.

And others birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at
all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.

After a while, I couldn’t even sit on my own back porch anymore. So I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio.

Soon, the back yard was like it used to be…. quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.

Now let’s see. Our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care, and

free education and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.

Then the illegal came by the tens of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5 families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor; your child’s 2nd grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn’t speak english.

Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have to ‘press one’ to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other than ‘Old Glory’ are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.

Just my opinion, but maybe it’s time for the government to take down the bird feeder
