Getting Your Name Out There
What do Paul Kinder, Tony Tezak, Soren Jordansen, Robert Puddy, William Brant, Sunny Suggs, Gudio Nussbaum and dozens of other success traffic exchange users have in common? Quite a few things actually, but what I want to point out is that chances are, you’ve heard of them…
Now if I was to say startabiz, ttiger, signeuhausen, hotbobs, wbrant, sunnys123 and geedo, I’m sure you could figure it out if you did some digging, but chances are, the username is not as known as the real name.
And this is the message behind what we talked about today at the Affiliate Funnel seminar. Getting your name out there and how important it is to your business.
Let’s face it, you are much more likely to do business with Paul Kinder instead of startabiz. It may seem like not much of a big deal but it is. For example, would you purchase advertising from some guy named ‘realincome’ or Jon Olson? ‘Realincome’ almost sounds like you should run away from it, and one day I will choose different usernames I promise, it’s a force of habit but nowadays I try to throw ‘Jon Olson’ everywhere I can.
Where can you get your name out?
The first example was already mentioned. Let’s say you are ready to join us in Affiliate Funnel or the Wednesday night SWAT Traffic seminar. The absolutely best thing you could do, is to come in using your real name. Do not come in as ‘greatbiz4u’, come in as yourself. Why? Not only does it help build trust with fellow surfers and community members, it’s part of your personal branding in business.
Another great place to get your name out there, forums! Again, same example but you should never join a business forum under an alias. Use your real name at all the business forums you visit. It will pay huge dividends down the road.
And finally, this is a traffic exchange blog, so you should be using your real name on squeeze pages, splash pages and everywhere in between. Remember your ‘traffic exchange brand awareness’ and get in front of people. Use your real name in 6 months, just as much as you are today.
Simple steps, completely free, it doesn’t cost you a thing and a great business habit to get into right now.
