We all know Facebook is currently the reigning Social Media giant.

FACT: Facebook has over 1.71 billion monthly active users and more monthly active users than WhatsApp (500 million), Twitter (284 million) and Instagram (200 million)—COMBINED. (Source: CNBC)

Earlier this year Facebook introduced a new feature called Facebook Live.

What is Facebook Live?

Facebook Live is a live-streaming video capability. By tapping the live stream icon, a user can start broadcasting video live from their smartphone, and write an optional description for the event.

Understanding Facebook Live is key if you’re an affiliate, internet, network or social media marketer; even if you don’t plan on using it. 

Video marketing is become increasingly popular and will be vital to your success going forward as an entrepreneur.

Facebook Live

 According to Syndacast,

74 percent of all Internet traffic in 2017 will be video. Also studies show that using the word “Video” in the subject line of an email can increase open rates by 19 percent, click-through rates by 65 percent and reduce un-subscribers by 26 percent. According to Twitter, videos and photos get the most retweets.”

Now I know the #1 reason most people avoid video marketing is FEAR.

Not everyone is comfortable in front of a camera especially if they know it is broadcasting to a “LIVE” audience even if its just friends and family.

However you can not afford to procrastinate on this issue any longer if you want to stand out from your competition.


Here are 3 Reasons To Use Facebook Live

1. Attract More Followers.

Facebook Live will notify your followers when you go live with a broadcast. Users have to actually click on the “Subscribe” button in order to opt out of these notifications. If you want to attract more regular “followers” on the platform be consistent. Try broadcasting around the same time. Whether its daily or once a week having a predicable time that you broadcast will help maximize engagement and attract new followers. 

2. Gain More Exposure

If you have not been paying attention, organic reach on Facebook is way down (unless you pay to play—Paid Ads). Organic reach for Pages is generally in the single digits [anything close to 10% reach you are doing well].

However, video posts are getting 3x the organic free exposure to fans as any other post. Their algorithm loves Facebook Live video and live videos are positioned relatively high in fans’ newsfeed.

3. Make A Faster Connection

Facebook Live lets you create a stronger, more personal relationship with your audience. What better way to get a potential prospect to KLT (Know, Like & Trust) you than to connect with them through video.

Remember, video is the most powerful way to connect with your audience and evoke emotions online. By delivering value based content to your followers you can present a quality live stream experience that your viewers enjoy and will continue to come back for more.

So if you are looking for more quality prospects to recruit or just want to make more sales its time to pull out that phone and go Facebook Live.

Facebook Live – Are you ready?

Yep it’s true, Wake Up Now or WUN has officially announced their shut down (at least in the United States).

In an open letter by their CEO, Phil Polich, posted on their Facebook page February 17th, 2015, Polich blasts former CEO Kirby Cochran.

quoteAs we made progress, we continued to discover that Kirby Cochran’s deceptive actions had put the company in a position from which it could not recover. In the end, his decisions for a privileged few outweighed the incredible heart and dedication of the many. CEO Phil Polich

Wake Up Now Shut Down

Well all the signs that there was a problem have been there.

wake up nowWUN financials have been in question for awhile.

Wake Up Now generated almost $8 million dollars in losses over 2012 and 2013. Significant losses mean commission payments are in jeopardy.

In a Wake Up Now Business Opportunity review I wrote back in July 2014, I provided links to the company’s 2013 income disclosure statement. WUN admitted that a vast majority of their representatives do not make ANY money!

WUN’s former CEO Kirby Cochran also stepped down last year! Did you know he filed for individual bankruptcy this month?

It Gets A Lot Uglier

Wake Up Now has filed a 70 million dollar lawsuit against their former CEO!

If you really want to know what kind of soap opera was going on behind the scenes at Wake Up Now company headquarters then read or download this legal complaint document filed by the company just click here.

Despite their current state of affairs, Wake Up Now vows to right the ship over time.

quote“We will continue to sell our products, including Awaken Thunder and the WUN Fit line of products. We will diligently work to fulfill all financial obligations of the company. I will continue to work with the creditors and vendors in anticipation of getting all obligations resolved. CEO Phil Polich



Top Three Lessons We Can Learn From Wake Up Now

wake up now shut down

Despite what has happened there are at least three fundamental lessons we can learn from Wake Up Now’s demise:

1) Always research the company, especially the leadership. Read a lot of reviews and don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t just jump all in because of the initial hype!

2) Examine the company product, what makes it unique?

3) Make sure the company compensation plan is sound. Be suspicious if they pay commissions primarily on the recruitment of new affiliates.

NOTE: Wake Up Now’s revenue generation relied on constant recruitment effectively making their business model impractical, to add salt to the wound their 22-page compensation plan was really confusing.

ATTN: Former WUN reps and other Network Marketers

WakeUpNow’s closure is a great example of why it is important to brand YOURSELF and not the company you are affiliated with!

FINAL THOUGHTS

Network marketing companies come and go all the time, just like many brick and mortar small businesses do but what I find especially disturbing with this development is the amount of young people that will be adversely affected by WUN being their first network marketing experience.

Wawake up now shut downke Up Now attracted a wave of young entrepreneurs at several colleges and universities.

Many of which dug deep into their pockets in order to get involved in the Wake Up Now business…or the wunlife as they called it!

If you were a WUN rep please keep your head up and do not let this minor stumbling block quench your entrepreneurial spirit and keep you from pursing your dreams of financial freedom.

Are you looking for a way to make money on facebook? Did you know that you can make money with your facebook photos? Are you an attractive woman posting your facebook photos for the world to see?

If you have a profile on Facebook and you are posting your photos on facebook you might want to pay close attention!

I see beautiful ladies posting their bathroom snapshots, casual and even professional modeling photos on Facebook all the time.

Most of these attractive (even non-attractive) women have even built a rather large male following (and even some females) by posting a wide variety of photos of themselves.

But What if You Knew Of A Way To Make Money Using Your Facebook Photos?

Let me ask you a question, do you receive a bunch of likes from friends and followers every time you post your photos on Facebook???facebook photosI have personally witnessed some of my attractive female friends post a picture of themselves and receive up to 150 Facebook ”Likes” in a matter of minutes after posting their Facebook photos.

WOW!

This attractive female received over 35K likes and over 1k shares( even though she was sporting a Dallas cowboy jersey with Tony Romo’s number!) :)

fb-35k-likes

Question #2: Do you have a rather large friends or followers list?

Just the other day I noticed one of my facebook female friends had accumulated a large number of facebook “Friends”. She has almost 5,000 friends! I know others that have a huge twitter following too!

Note: The limit on any Facebook personal page is 5k for “friends”. I believe after you reach the limit you can only have followers.

Look at the results these attractive ladies received after posting their photos on facebook

fb-9kand14k-likes

Well, ladies and gents as an online marketer I believe you are missing a golden opportunity here with your facebook photos. Unfortunately many attractive females and males do not take advantage of their huge social media following.

Don’t Be Stupid!

You have a tremendous opportunity to capitalize financially and create a lucrative income stream and you probably don’t even know it. So put your business hat on and start thinking money while I tell you…

How To Make Money With Your Photos On Facebook

What if you could cash in every time you posted your Facebook photos. Heck you are going to do it anyway so why not get something out of it financially?

Let’s create a formula and say one Facebook like=one dollar or (1FB like=$1). Remember when I said earlier that I had a friend post her Facebook photos and in minutes  she had 150 hits or likes!! Using that example, posting a picture could potentially net her $150 in a few short minutes. Not bad right?

What if this happened to you 4 or 5 times a day? Now you are looking at ($600-$750) in a day of playing around on Facebook. Just think if you could deposit those earnings directly into your bank account daily! Would you be willing to change a little of what you do to explode your bank account and start generating a residual income now using your Facebook photos?

Well if you said YES, I can show you how to turn your Photos into Profit using Facebook and other social media outlets. Guess what there are already thousands of people utilizing the technique that I am about to reveal below.

OK, I am Interested So What Do You Have To Do?

STEP 1: You have to have a blog, but not just any blog. You need a blog that has authority and ranks high in the search engines.

STEP 2: Once you have your blog the next step is to start writing blog posts. Within your post you can insert the same pictures you would normally share on Facebook. Like I did in this post!

STEP 3: Publish your blog post with your photo or photos you want to share on facebook. Then share your blog post link on Facebook in a status update for all your friends or friends of friends to see. Now to see your photos they will have to click on the link which will take them to your blog (your website).

Why Send My Facebook Friends To My Blog?

Ah ha. In marketing we call this driving traffic to your business. Traffic =$$$$.

Instead of sharing your Facebook photos directly on Facebook so only Facebook cashes in on your traffic, now you will cash in! Why should Facebook profit off of your Facebook photos? I will teach you how turn your blog into a cash producing machine!!! You see once your visitors are on your blog,  4 out of every 10 visitors  (40%) will click on your side advertisements. At least one (1) or two (2) will purchase one of your affiliate products.

It’s That Simple!

Hey, maybe you are selling a calendar like the banner ad below.

CalendarOr perhaps you are selling a book, posters, etc.. Maybe you are a network marketer and looking to sell your wellness products or telecommunication services, the point is once a person is in the store chances are they will not leave empty handed.

Imagine receiving 1000 Facebook friends checking out your photos then 10 of them buying a reoccurring product at a cost of $100 a month. That’s a residual income of $1000!

NOW MAKE THAT MONEY WITH YOUR FACEBOOK PHOTOS

I have only shared part of the secret to learn more you have to CONTACT ME and I’ll show you how to turn your Facebook photos into cash.  This simple technique is earning me and my friends thousands of dollars a month. By the way, men can utilize this technique too. Hot attractive males receive lots of attention for their Facebook photos too!
