To Follow or not to Follow.. Twitter, IMFaceplate

I want to thank all of you that read and

comment on my blog.


This post is to inform everyone of my

intentions.


As well as to teach others how to properly

use sites that have “Following” capabilities.


I was recently approached on IMFaceplate

from an undisclosed person with a Spam

comment.


I call it spam because I had never met

this person but they took it upon

themselves to follow me, then send

me an ad for a social network that they

may or may not get paid for.


When I asked that person not to spam

my Faceplate I was bombarded with a

snide comment.


This post is dedicated to anyone that

doesn’t know how to market using

tools like Twitter, and ImFaceplate.

Help Me Help You!


Thanks for reading entire post and

commenting.


I will start by saying the first person

to a million “followers” is not the

winner!

I network with some of the top names

in the internet marketing world.

Now, I’m not trying to toot my own horn

here, all I am getting at is I generally will

find out about what’s new in the internet

marketing world before most people

would.

I make it my job to know what programs

are out there, and I help hundreds of

people make decisions based off of my

knowledge. So, it would stand to reason

I would be somebody you would want

to follow and see what I was doing next.


Especially with a blog named

TheBlakestersMadness. Wink!

Now let’s talk about Sally Spammer for

a minute.. Stay with me.

Sally Spammer just came out of No

where with some idea of joining a social

network that she believes will pay her if

she goes and spams enough people to

get involved to spam other people.


Now, looking at Sally’s Spamming’s

profile we find she is involved in at

least 10 different things that she

frequently sends out messages to her

so called friends and or “followers” list,

and rarely sends out anything of true

value to those she has in her contact

list she calls friends.

When we dig deeper we find that

more than half of herfollowers” don’t

cheap clomid style=”font-size: 18pt;”>have a clue to what’s going on or how

to capitalize by being on Sally’s list. So

Sally may be happy with her little

commission checks she gets here and

there but in the end her followers

bleed their pockets to follow Sally and

have nothing to show for it.


Well, personally I’m not going to follow

what Sally is doing!

I am however, out to change the world

and make it a better place.

So if you

have great input that is changing

peoples lives then I want to know about it,

and I would most definitely follow you,

if you build a good relationship!

To put things short if your selling

something online.. Stop It! Sell yourself..

Meaning, people have to

know like and trust you before they

will buy from you.

I follow people in different networks

that I belong to because, I like what

they are doing for others. So now you

know who

“To Follow or not to Follow.. Twitter,

IMFaceplate


If you are making a conscious

decision to help others get
what they want, you will eventually

succeed. You will also have all the

followers” you can handle without

letting anyone fall by the wayside and

failing.
(Unless they are just shy, and never

contact you)

Remember the tortuous and the hare?

Slow and steady wins the race!

Now the choice is up to you, If you

would like to capitalize from natural

health and wellness remedies, as well

as staying informed on what’s really

going on online then feel free to be
a follower of mine. Don’t expect me

to reciprocate right away and don’t

think I’m not watching what your

doing. LOL


Stay positive always!


If you can agree with this personal

message that I took time to personally

write, then give me a heck Yeah and

a great comment and share.


If not, I wish you the best, and ask

that you kindly remove yourself from

the information I share, because weight control medication I

never want to be looked at as a

spammer!

Last but not least, If I have offended

anyone by this post or any others I

have written, know that it isn’t and

never will be my my intention to hurt

anyone in

any way.


I am a compassionate man on a mission.

Let me help you in yours.


Thanks for reading, commenting, and

sharing. **I have added a share link

on my blog for FaceBook in case you

would like to share with your contacts

that may not know me that can benefit

from the information I share.


Thanks for reading and thanks for

“following”.

    Hey Robert, great info as always! Hopefully the new marketers will figure out soon enough that spamming is not the way to the light. Anyone else will soon figure out they are getting nowhere and eventually stop marketing online.

    Great Stuff, info and wisdom…U see youre passionate about what you believe

  • http://toyourcellularhealth.com Staci

    I totally agree with you.
    I on the other hand am getting spammed in a different way. I keep getting msg’s on IM Faceplate regarding needing some one in the USA to send an inheritance to and they keep a percentage and send the rest back to them. I am sure you know the story, I thought getting them in emails was bad enough but now I am getting them on Skype, faceplate and a couple of other social networks I am on. I block them where I can. Any advice on how to stop those kinds of spammers would be greatly appreciated.

    There isn’t much to do about that Staci, other then be aware of the types of profiles these scam artists use. They generally will have no picture on their profile. Most of the time you will see an ad posted on the day they joined the particular network they are scamming in. You never see any extra pictures and if you do they look fake. And most will be coming from overseas, particularly Nigeria. Be aware and don’t get scammed. http://snopes.com/ is also another resource for checking on fraudulent activity around the internet. I hope this information helps you.

    Amen amen amen! You know, I get tons of followers, and many of those followers send me a default copy/paste message raving about some site or product that has paid them tons and will most definitely pay me millions.

    Nothing irks me more. I used to ignore these SPAM messages. Now I have my own default copy/paste response. Feel free to use it as your own :)

    Oh hey *FIRSTNAME*!
    Thanks so much for your inspiring message. It’s great to meet you too, and I’m so glad you took the time to get to know me personally.

    I’m really great today thanks for asking. Not many people would take time out of their busy day to just say “Hello, I’m *FIRSTNAME*. I just wanted to stop by and let you know you have a lot of useful information. Looking forward to getting to know you.”

    Have a great day *FIRSTNAME* and please join the program below. It’s made me millions of dollars and I spend all my time now drinking on the beach and riding horses into the sunset!

    I leave everything as is. I don’t change the name at all. It is kind of condescending I suppose… but so is spamming someone you’ve never even spoken to all your links.

    I’m so glad you posted about this topic! I think we can all learn something from it :)

    Hi Robert,

    I appreciate the effort you’re making to point out a mistake people make that is easily correctable. My cynical side doesn’t think it will make much difference in people’s overall behavior, but if you can save one or two from harming themselves it was worth the time it took you to write this.

    I mention my cynical side only because I have fought the same windmills myself time and time again and it appears to me that the windmills are winning.

    I’ve had people leave spam comments on my blog posts that were about this same subject so I don’t think they are reading anything, they are just copy & pasting their graffiti, but like I said if it helps save one it is worth it.

    Thanks!
    Stan

    Thanks so much! One person actually even sent me a message back on FB apologizing and we got off to a better start. It felt good to see someone actually reads the responses they get from their copy/paste tactics. He’s actually a pretty nice guy! And I think he’ll consider the consequences of that type of “marketing”.

    Such great feedback on this post! :)
