In addition: What are top social sharing sites you are using?

StumbleUpon - is this the best site?

    Best and fastest are two different things. In social media you must brace yourself for the long term. Like any business you need a goal, plan, who are you marketing for, what do you bring to the table that they will be repeat customers. In social media, usually fastest is short term and does not translate into steady income.

    Agreed. Unfortunately many people (including me initially) see paid advertising as a cost - but it doesn't have to be.

    If you're investing, say, $100 for paid advertising and it produces $150 in sales/commissions or whatever, it's a profit maker.

    That's what my team all do - we buy advertising, have a high converting offer and funnel and the profit rolls in.

    The great thing is after a while you get to know your percentage conversions to sale and that gives you the confidence to scale it up.

    For me the easiest way is Social Media for local business.

    Most businesses/companies know they need some kind of online presence but either do not know how to do it or just do not have the time.

    I look at each business individually and put together a package for them. The main thing is you have to actually go and ask people and take action.

    Some just want to get on Facebook and Twitter which most of us are already doing.

    Simples!

    I think many people are still doing well with Facebook, however I think Twitter and Google+ will be the ones to concentrate on in 2014.

    Twiter is a goldmine if you know what your doing. So many people give up or try and try and build up as many followers quickly thinking this will automatically convert to traffic. This leaves the gates wide open to those who know how to generate converting traffic which can then be sent to your money site or sales funnel.

    I did a lot of work on SEO and backlinking but nothing worked for me
    Then i turned to social media, learned it for couple of months and then implemented it, it worked great for me,
    In fact it is the only thing that worked for me
    You just need to learn and then develop your own strategy, just don't go like sheep herd

    Social media is good for "Casting" your net further afield. I have found that with twitter its not always about how many people who follow you. With twitter to get your message in front of more than just your followers you need to start using Hash Tags properly and have the cheek to ask for RT's or Retweets. Use Hash Tags the big boys in your industry use and this will allow your message to appear in the search results as well.
