Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) September 21, 2010

Business owners and solo entrepreneurs learn the quickest way to find new clients, make money and increase sales by using social media in the new book “30 Days to Social Media Success: The 30 Day Results Guide to Making the Most of Twitter, Blogging, LinkedIn and Facebook” (Career Press, Sept. 2010).

According to Gail Z. Martin, social media expert and internationally bestselling author, the question questioned most often is, “I’m on Facebook—now what?” Says Martin: “Business owners want to know that they’re investing time wisely, and that the time they spend on social media is going to help them meet new prospects and get results. If they’re not using social media effectively, or not using it at all, they’re missing a huge window of opportunity.”

Martin will host a five-week intensive group coaching program in October 2010 based on the book to help small business and home business, as well as solo professionals, customize and apply her 30 Day Results System to use Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook and other social media sites to achieve specific business goals.

“30 Days to Social Media Success” also has its own 30 Day Results Guide Facebook Fan Page and a Meetup.com group at The 30 Day Marketing Success Network.

In “30 Days to Social Media Success: The 30 Day Results Guide to Making the Most of Twitter, Blogging, LinkedIn and Facebook,” Martin shares the proven marketing system she made to successfully market nearly 300,000 of her own books, as well as her company and her clients’ products. Small chapters are designed to let busy entrepreneurs, small business owners and home business start-ups read and apply the information in less than an hour a day.

For example, one trick Martin shares to get more business from social media is to be choosy about your “friends.” Says Martin: “Many business owners are doing the online equivalent of offering 'free beer.' If you give people free beer, they’ll fill up your store, but they won’t necessarily buy your product. Avoid mass-friending and robot-friender programs, and focus on people who make excellent prospects.”

Topics include:
--Why most marketing fails, and how to avoid the most common mistakes
--How to connect social media marketing to key business plot goals
--How to use social media to get more impact from traditional marketing efforts
--How to find and connect with ideal customers on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and blogs
--Which social media sites are best for business—and what to avoid
--How to use social media for local business, start-ups, non-profits and professional services

Says Martin: “Business owners keep hearing that they need to be on Facebook, they need to use Twitter, but no one tells them how to use social media to really get results. They join Facebook, LinkedIn or other sites without a plot and then become frustrated because nothing seems to work. I show them how to make a strategic, results-oriented social media program and get it up and running in just 30 days, 30 minutes a day.”

“30 Days to Social Media Success: The 30 Day Results Guide to Making the Most of Twitter, Blogging, LinkedIn and Facebook” takes the mystery out of social media and helps readers save time and money while making more valuable connections. The book explores dozens of the most well loved social media sites (including YouTube, Flickr, Digg, WordPress, Squidoo, Ning, Meetup, Yahoo Answers and Yahoo Groups) along with fantastic sites that aren’t as well known—always focused on how to use the site to get more clients and do more business.

Business owners and solo professionals could hire a social media marketing firm for $ 7,000 a month, or save money and do their own strategic social media promotion with “30 Days to Social Media Success: The 30 Day Results Guide to Making the Most of Twitter, Blogging, LinkedIn and Facebook.” “30 Days to Social Media Success” is available on Amazon, BarnesandNoble.com, in bookstores and in FedEx Office stores nationwide for just $ 13.99.

Turbo Tweeting

This is the simplest way to schedule tweets to Twitter. If you want to seriously start building traffic to your web site then regular tweets are essential. First, make sure you have curl installed. cURL is often already present in Linux distros but Windows users will need to locate and install it. The command is very simple which can be placed in a shell script (Linux) or a batch file (Windows). This can then be scheduled as you wish - I suggest you don't over do it, the same message every minute will not be posted as it will be identical to your previous one and Twitter will reject it. Keep repeated messages a few minutes apart. Right, down to the nitty gritty. The command is fundamentally straight forward:

curl -u username:password -d status="Lets's have a excellent ancient tweet. http://goodoldtweet.twt" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml

The username:password is honestly obvious - just replace it with your own Twitter account login details. The text following -d status= is your tweet message (I included my blog url). See below Sponsored Links

Now, this produces output to the screen and is helpful when you want to know that the command has worked and what it did. But, this is no excellent if you want to automate the command. Screen output will cause an error in scheduled running of scripts and applications. Fortunately there is a way around this. I shall show you how to do this in Linux as I currently don't know the equivalent in Windows (it may be the same in Windows but don't count on it).

curl -u username:password -d status="Lets have a excellent ancient tweet. http://goodoldtweet.twt" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml > /dev/null 2>&1

This makes sure that all output is cleanly dealt with without causing errors. The shell script in which you place the command can now be scheduled as you wish.
