How To Identify Activities That Get Results

Posted on January 12, 2012 by Monyelle| 51 Comments

In my post about the 80-20 Rule and social media my friend  Duke Romkey left a comment:

[quote]…The part that I think a lot of people get hung up on is not necessarily that they don’t know what it is, but how do they actually identify which activities are the ones bringing in 80% of the results. It’s the identification part that cross people up. (There’s your next blog topic)[/quote]

Duke is completely right, especially if you’re new to social media marketing,  it can be really confusing about what to do and where to start.

Why Aren’t You Following the 80/20 Rule?

Posted on January 9, 2012 by Monyelle| 28 Comments

I’m not going to point fingers, but I am still seeing such a high number of folks still not following the 80-20 Rule. I can only assume that it is because the concept may still be unclear (…and because I don’t want to accept that they just may be simply ignoring the principle ;) )

This post isn’t to serve as a lecture, warning, or chastisement to those who chose to flood timelines or even create more work for themselves. It really its to explain and get you to ask yourself (if this applies to you) why? Why do it and why continue as such?

Facebook Insights That Increase Page Enagement

Posted on November 27, 2011 by Monyelle| 37 Comments

The recent updates to Facebook have truly made Facebook the social and viral site it was meant and always claimed to be. When Fans like items on your page or decide to share something from your page (using the Share link) it now has a direct link back to your Page no matter how far down the line the share goes. Fan interactions on your Page are shown in the real-time Ticker. Facebook is really going viral.

It’s arguable that all Facebook insights should be watched/reviewed regularly. If you’re like me you don’t feel like you have time for that nor want to do that. I understand. With that said, this post is not to excuse you from monitoring your stats or to give you the excuse, “Well, Monyelle said I didn’t need to monitor that.” My objective is the opposite, to make reviewing your insights a bit easier and quicker. You’ll know what to look for and how to improve your page engagement.
