Hello again, my friends! We’re so happy to have you on this journey we’re calling Advertising for Success. We’ve been spending this year in a 60-day challenge to boost your network, and we’re positive that when you consistently implement these tools into your life, you will find the life you deserve!
The return on investment is slow and steady until it’s not. Don’t force it. How you show up matters. How you come off when you show up, that matters too. I invite you to watch this week’s video, and continue to challenge yourself along with us.
So, how are you showing up? Where are you going and why, and what are your primary values in being there? We have to keep asking questions, and be consistent in showing up full blast.
Focus on contribution and consistency, and you’ll find yourself in that flow. Posting about whatever is happening in your community is what you want to do, and you want to be non-stop. You want to set up your day in a habitual way so that your values are easy to live in.
You’ll need to have a routine to successfully be a part of these virtual communities. You can post as often as you like, as long as you can keep up with the habit. Your processes and rituals should work for you so feel free to start small. Posting even just a few times a week will keep your audience engaged, as long as you find some routine in it.
So, this week we’re posing a question of consistency. What qualities, characteristics, and values shine through when you are continually showing up? As your best self, you are organized, motivated, and clever. And that’s all you need to make this work! Fill in the blanks below, and just like you’ve done for the last few weeks, put this list next to your computer. That way, the reminder is always there for you to see yourself as a champion for your community.

Your challenge this week? Post something to your own page. It might feel a little awkward, but guess what… everyone else is doing it too. So put yourself in that mix. You have to put yourself out there to be seen. And you’re awesome… so let them see you.
Three posts this week. It’ll be a cakewalk! People like videos so make sure at least one of the posts is a video that your face is in. If you’re feeling uncomfortable about this, don’t worry. The posts don’t have to be about you at all. Talk about your family, or what you’re grateful for, or promote local businesses. Ernie puts on a monthly contest for everyone who tags him after they buy a car from him. Carlos brought his facebook friends into a local food truck to promote THEM. The options are endless, really. Just get in there!
There is no better way to expand your tribe than to be yourself, and do it in a way that serves the community. Do that, and show up full blast!
