Good question! Glad you asked. Just be you. Be real. Be accessible. Write like you talk. Make your language simple and clear.
People like to work (and follow) people they like, respect, and admire. It isn't work to motivate someone who likes, respects, and admires you. You ask or suggest to them that they should do something that will improve their business. They will do it, if they possibly can.
For example, I think most of us would do anything Erich asked us to do. And most of us don't know him personally. However, he is accessible - we see him all over the Affiliate Center. We comment to his streams. He writes clearly, simply, and his caring shines through. He suggests actions that will help us. There is probably more than one Erich in SFI, but you know of whom I speak: Erich Winnecke.
