As I've done a lot of website reviews over the past weeks and months, I've started looking for research to back up my recommendations. I'm sharing some surprising data on the ideal position of your logo on your site.

#DailyGrowth 66 - How To Use Asana To Plan Your Week by Sales4U

It is quite challenging to grow a facebook group consistently, and one of the main growth engines is getting access to new audiences on an ongoing basis. One way to do that is to interview experts, and broadcasting your interview live on your facebook profile, and asking your interviewee to share it to their profile as well so that it gets broadcasted live there. Then, they can also share the edited version of the interview. If it is a live AMA (Ask Me Anything) focused on a topic, then you can break down that content into chunks (one video per question), and post a video once or twice a day.

My coaching session with my coach has given me clarity on my three next steps, the three things I should be focusing on now.

Very insightful!

A regular coaching session is incredibly valuable.

Everyone says it, I've heard this many times, and yet I was posting manually for the longest time. I recently started scheduling posts, and it's awesome.

Virgil Brewster​ shared these 3 steps to building your personal network to grow your business, in a recent interview I did with him. Since that is something I'll be implementing in my business, I figured I'd share it with you!

It took us almost 2 years to go from about 150 members to 200 members, 2 weeks to go from 200 to 250, and 2 days to go from 250 to 470+.

Here's how!

Facebook groups are a great way to build an audience for your business, so that you can then easily figure out what to build, build it, and offer it to them.

Beware the tall puppy syndrome in large facebook groups! I got kicked out of two ecommerce groups in 2 weeks :D

I recorded this video this morning after reading the message from the admin of the second group saying I overposted, and he was going to remove me unless I provided a good reason. The funny thing is there is moderation on both groups, and they approved all my posts.

All they had to do was:

1. reject some of my posts OR

2. give me a warning

3. make it clear how often people should post

These bans are very subjective - they "felt" I was overposting (even if my focus was on providing value and help people in the group).

Remember that these groups are serving the purpose of the owner... to drive more sales to their business. That's it, sadly.
