You can use both Skype and YouTube for marketing as well as training.

Marketing:

To use Skype for marketing, you must include your SFI gateway link in your profile name and in the “About Me” section of your profile as well as saying something about your business in same section. This will be the first message someone will see when entering your profile when added. Hopefully it will trigger their interest and they will click on your link. Search for prospects and add them as friends.

To use YouTube for marketing, produce presentation videos of SFI and/or TripleClicks and post them on YouTube with your SFI gateway embedded in the description of your videos. Descriptions can be something like “How to earn money online”, “How to bid in Penny Auctions”, etc. Start promoting your videos on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. as well as in your blog and your own Website or domain and embed the video link in your Email signature. The videos can be in the form of a Vlog (Video Blog), with new content every week, or if time permit, every day. That way it will reach higher rankings in the search engines and attract more traffic.

You can use Skype and YouTube together for better effect by using Skype as your preferred mode of communication with prospects that show interest by posting your Skype ID in your video.

Training:

You can use Skype for training your team as a whole or individually because it’s essentially a communication tool. It’s a form of video conferencing. You can present training webinars via Skype and you can even share your screen with the other party so that you can walk him/her through the whole process.

You can use YouTube for training by producing training videos. Send the links to all your team members. You can also promote it on your website, blog, etc. If you treat it as a Vlog, it can also attract search engine attention if you post on it regularly. That way even a training video can attract new business.

First I want to talk about Skype. I find that face-to-face conversation is definetely more effective than writing e-mails to communicate about your business. It's difficult to express your enthusiasm about the business only by writing - it can be done, but a lot "gets lost". It' also possible for people communicating to missunderstand each other , or if the text is too long, the reader might just fly over it and miss some important details. That's why Skype is a great tool, because you create a bond talking to a person and you're giving him or her the possibility to ask questions and give them answers, without risking missinterpretations. Talk about your business with passion and you will awake greater interest, not everybody is such a great writer to be able to create that atmosphere with written word.

Personally, I use YouTube to film tutorials in different languages for those team members that don't speak such good english. Plus they appreciate me taking time to help them and that earns me trust as a Sponsor. You can do the same by filming yourself talking about different aspects of SFI and TripleClicks. Again, you can transmit your passion and belief in this opportunity. Ad the right tags and your Gateway and it can turn up to be a great advertising tool. More and more people use YouTube to search different topics. If prospects find you and you mannage to communicate the right message, you have great chances to get some active PSAs, because they saw the persone behind the ad and probably will want to connect with you.

Good luck.

You can utilize YouTube by branding yourself or a unique SFI marketing video made by you, outlining all of the key aspects of the business. Maybe award a $12 gift card to tripleclicks for opting into your list after the video.

I would try and rank high for a well searched keyword with high demand but not being used much in order to create a flood of free traffic to your video. This keyword should be related to affiliate marketing, making money on the internet, etc. These termas are too broad and being used by the most successful internet marketers but a much narrower keyword related to those words should do the trick. Maybe a localized keyword like bronx ny internet marketing will work. Then, utilize SEO methods that bring results in order to rank high.

Also, a PPC campaign on Facebook, Google, etc will work as well. Even though PPC campaigns will work, they can get pricey if you don't know what your doing in this regards.

Utilize skype by instantly being available for questions to prospective affiliates and tripleclick members. Since skype is mobile, you can even be reached by phone as well while away from home. This type of availability will set you apart from many folks who tend to shy away from being readily available.

Once they are your team members you can use skype to keep your PSA's afloat with any new techniques and tips you might have learned in order to help maximize your business.

Since skype is free, it is a great point of contact for people all over the world where many of your team, and potential team, members will reside.

This is a very good question.

Skype is an excellent platform for internet communication, but would be a very poor choice to be used for marketing, unless you are promoting solely to the limited number of family and friends that you likely have already as Skype contacts.

As with any form of advertising, it is important to be yourself. Let them see and hear your passion for your SFI business. Demonstrate that you are dedicated to SFI and that you have a genuine interest in helping them succeed as you have with SFI.

Now, Youtube, on the other hand, can be a very powerful platform for marketing. Its reach is global and if your published video is well-made with highly useful content, then your video will go viral, meaning that your initial viewers will tell their friends, who will then tell their friends, and so on.

It is often a good idea to write yourself a script of what you want to say in your video. However, if you are personally on camera, it is important that you not appear to be reading from a script. Some of the most effective videos I have seen for business marketing are ones that use screenshots with the producer doing background voiceovers.

Once you have created your video and published it to Youtube, then you still need to get the word out about your new video. Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter are excellent for this.

Hope this helps.

Hello!

Good question.
It is very important to use internet wisely and all tools you got.
But, I don't know how should you use skype for promotion...
Using Skype for communication with your PSA is important - group calls are even more effective!

Now, when talk about YouTube, there's a lot to say because it is the greatest tool you can get.
With YouTube you can express yourself much better. Make some good video with few Text messages, background photos with online job theme and You! Don't just put a bunch of text and pictures that jump around the screen - people need to see you standing there and talking truth! Otherwise it might look like fake add. Be original! Make something good out of this!

Wish you a lot success!

Great question!

First Skype - what a great tool for communication! To promote SFI and TripleClicks to people who aren't yet joined up may be a bit limited, but it's a good way of talking to all your existing contacts instead of just emailing them! It will take a bit longer to get all their Skype addresses, or to persuade them to sign up to Skype if they aren't already using it, but once you have it set up you can call or message so easily!

The big benefit I think is with your downline, especially those who are struggling at some point or not really getting going. It's so much easier to chat to people so they can ask questions. Sometimes we don't even know what our question is, but when we talk it through with someone it comes out and our questions are answered! You can be that person to your downline! Even if some of your team don't speak the same language as you very easily, it's still nice to be able to establish a good friendly relationship between you so that they know you really care about them and their business!

Also, you can choose to setup a Skype account in another country, so for example, if you have a lot of PSAs or contacts in India, but you live in Canada, why not setup an India based Skype account so that if you have to call a phone rather than online Skype to Skype, then all your calls will be at the local rate, not a really expensive international rate! This works well for anyone who doesn't have reliable Internet or who doesn't get much time online!

And you can put something about SFI and TripleClicks on your Skype ID so that people will see it as soon as they see your ID. Be careful not to SPAM contacts that you don't know yet though!

YouTube - if you search on YouTube there are so many videos already about SFI & TripleClicks! And not all in English! There are videos in so many languages! Take some time to look through them, and favourite any that you think will be really useful to you, then you can use those to promote SFI.& TripleClicks! You can use them one to one with friends, family, local businesses or other people that you meet, or send the link to your contacts in an email, or social media link, or use the link in your blogs or websites if you have them setup already!

Of course, if you have the skills and knowledge about SFI and TripleClicks you can make your own videos and post them to YouTube, but why not start with what's already there?

With both of these tools, you need good access to the Internet. YouTube in particular needs good Internet speed and reliability to make it useful, but don't be put off if internet isn't good where you live, maybe just o for shorter videos and do Skype by message or just voice call without video!

Have fun and all the best with your business!

Skype is a great way to communicate with every individual, and even with a few of your associates. But, as is often alone word, without the pictures, misses the point, I suggest that for such a mode of communication, you should be well prepared.

Personally, I use materials from support groups, but very often I do some guide on my way. I prefer Power Point, because slides allow longer retention on certain issues.

When it comes to YouTube, I think of these things, you need a bit more technical background. But certainly, tutorials helps a lot and you do not need any further communication. They all explained. Although, I must admit, when the new stuff comes, I prefer the written word incomplete picture, than video where someone is explaining something.

Hello Ash,

Very good question. Even though I have not had much experience with either I can see the benefit these two powerful mediums can have in promoting SFI and TripleClicks.

YouTube Videos can be made to promote your ECA TConnect Page and Product Line if an ECA. If I want I can buy already made Videos that promote my particular product line. This service is provided for a price and they will edit for my part in it. You can learn how to put together your own SFI Promo Videos or buy one from one of our ECAs where offered.

With Skype I have seen how one can allow another to see your computers monitor/screen in real time. This could be used as a potential training tool not only for your new PSAs or CSAs but prospects just the same. You can set it up for viewing SFI and TripleClicks Pages and use your cursor as a pointer while you explain the various steps and how to's.

I hope you find this information helpful.
