I am finally joining the 21st century and experimenting with Web 2.0.
I’m on the following sites so far… and I’d consider it a privilege if you took a minute to link up, “face up” and “twitter” up with me on the sites below:
FaceBook: http://profile.to/bensettle
Twitter: http://twitter.com/bensettle
LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/bensettle
I’m not exactly sure how to monetize these kinds of sites yet… but I am getting some ideas and am experimenting with one thing now.
I’ll share them on this blog as I learn more.
I just put an interview clip with Brian Clark about social media marketing in my FaceBook profile.
This is a small clip from Appendix 6 of The Copywriting Grab Bag, and is extremely valuable information if you’re dabbling in “Web 2.0″.











Hello Ben,
Internet marking is aways changing.
I was wondering if you’ve done any off-line marketing to promote your stuff.
We do emailing and snail mailing (off-line) to our current customers, snail mail works much better then email for us.
We get most of our new customers online, then do emails and snail mails to them.
We’ve advertised in some mags in the past too. That seemed to work OK.
In the future, we’d like to try more off-line methods to being people to our site
thanks.
Hey Phil,
I once heard Dan Kennedy say “one” is the most dangerous number in business — he was talking about relying on: One customer, one product, one way of advertising… etc. Because then you’re always vulnerable.
I’ve relied waaay too much on the Internet, but am slowly starting to change that.
I think you got the right idea of mixing and matching them up.
Ben
I remember reading an issue of the Gary Halbert newsletter, about a technique Gary used to get snail mail addresses, instead of just email addresses.
I think it went something like “If you send me your smail mail address, I’ll send you a metal object that will make you a lot of money”.
You probably seen this issue too, so I won’t give away (here) what metal object is.
thanks.
