Someone has recommended the book “Crush It” by Gary Vaynerchuk – this talks in a very non-techie way about social media and branding yourself.

As a mini synopsis type thing……of Crush it

Gary has 3 simple rules:

• Love your family
• Work superhard
• Live your passion

Fairly easy non-hyped philosophies/mantras to live life to.

He then explains all of it (social media bits) and at the end provides a checklist as follows (not to the letter but a general gist) :-

1. Identify your passion – well that’s a nobrainer for us all

2. Make sure you can think of at least 50 things to say about your passion that is unique/interesting – again not hard

3. Name your brand and make sure you “own” it

4. Get yourself connected up via blogging, facebook, twitter etc. etc.

5. Get out there – and start contributing to the “Online community”

6. Keep doing it and doing it and doing it

I’ve shortened it massively, but he takes you through step by step what you need to do and how to do it. Brilliant

Ok, why not start popping onto this discussion and giving some of your tried and tested advertising tips and Ideas for leadership?

here are a few of mine:

1. Place an ad in the local paper to start with (small steps)

2. The ad needs to be simple and to the point

3. Linage is the cheapest and by far the best way to go

4. Always advertise in the same paper for a minimum of 4-6 wk, to get a true figure of leads generated

5. Dont be put off by others advertising in your local paper (it must be good if they do it!)

6. Always leave your name and number on the ad.
