Hi my name is Jan Hill, and I am a Social Media and Marketing Consultant and I wanted to share my experience and how I became involved with the Tribe Mastery Group. I was extremely fortunate to be able to work with Ken, Kary and Michael in another learning venue on the internet in the fall of 2009. I was very impressed with how they were so giving of their time and information in this group, they are incredible people. I knew they were working on a project with Nick and Jon, so when Tribe Mastery was released I knew that I definitely wanted to be a part of it. Continue Reading

This Video Gave Me Chills. The Go Giver in action. Through giving back these young men are having the time of their lives!
I’ve never felt an obligation to send a video response to a video through youtube. This time I did. That video is exactly what can be accomplished through our video screens, with our keyboard and mouse, through “Tribe Syndication.” All Thing are possible to The Go Giver.
This just expanded my vision of what is possible in my own life. It all starts right here. I have held fast on my vision for the last two years. I’m getting closer and closer everyday. My vision revolved around more time with family. I remind myself of this vision everyday.
The vision was to retire from my job flying helicopters and live on a lake house in Michigan during the summer. I envision our house being the place where all of our family and friends visit and enjoy what the lake has to offer. There is no better place to be than Michigan in the winter.
But the winters are cruel, gray and miserable. I’m not a winter person. So my vision includes traveling around in an RV to warm climates in the winter. I need to add to that vision after watching the video. I truly believe that all things are possible, now that I’ve seen the light with blogging alliances, and tribe syndication. Thanks for the inspiration…The Buried Life!!!

Meet Theresa Moss
I have been a network marketer for a couple of years. Before that I was just lost in the vast openess that is the internet, knowing there was tons of money being made, but having NO idea how to cash in.

I saw quickly the power of video and “branding” to be a major factor in me actually having an online business, as opposed to “having a downline” or some generic place in someone’s pyramid. This game wasn’t about gathering numbers of people, but building relationships, You Tube and My Space were the first places I saw People advertising their personalities instead of their products.
You Tube and My Space were very one sided, though, and while it made superstars of a few, it left anyone else who wasn’t “Star Quality” behind, and feeling alone with no one to talk to. Enter Facebook, twitter, linked in…
These were sites where communication was not just a one sided conversation. It seemed now, more people had a chance to network and get to know each other. Still, getting your message out there and having an optimal number of people see it was a challenge. The tribe concept has been a game equalizer. It is no longer necessary to be the one with the biggest advertising budget who gets to be seen. With the concept of small groups encouraging each other to be their best, and shining the spotlight on each other instead of ourselves, we have made it possible for even the most un-polished personality become a valued member of what can be a very competitive place.
I am here for the simple fact that, after 20 years of marraige and motherhood, I finally found something I can do not only for me, but for every other person who longs to be part of something bigger than themselves, and who wants to make a positive impact on other lives, whether it be on a very small scale, or something much, much, larger. The opportunities on the internet are endless, and we are really at the beginning of this phenomenon.
My journey has been slow, like so many others, but what’s crazy is that I keep picking up speed over time, and I am now “Comfortably Cruising” not only towards my goal of a 7 figure income, but also towards a lifestyle designthat I am proud of, knowing that I am in charge of my own future.
Not a boss or a government, but me. I get to decide what I am worth and what kind of life I want to live. In 2010, as my youngest goes to college, Those goals include traveling at will, spending time with friends and family that I always put off before because I was “too busy”, and continuing to grow my wealth and build new long-lasting relationships with people from all over the world. It is truly an exciting time to be alive!
Are you already blogging? If not, when would NOW be a good time to start? Setting up your blog can be a headache at best if you do not know what you are doing? Don’t worry, it’s not hopeless. You just need someone to show you how to do it. So what does it take to set up a thriving professional blog that attracts thousands of raving fans?
The # 1 Secret To Explode Your Business, and Monetize Your Pa$$ion With a Blogging Alliance
What about Don?
Don Enck
Last year in November I began to explore all the avenues of social media marketing. I had a Facebook account and we had set up a Fan page for our business but that was about it. I got stated on Twitter and began to Blog. As I was getting used to Twitter I started following different people and a couple of the ones I followed were putting out some very useful and helpful tips that help me to learn and grow a little quicker. So, I paid closer attention to them and started to follow some of their followers and I noticed this common theme of Tribes kept coming up between them. In December I saw a Blog post for an upcoming webinar on Tribe Syndication and an opportunity to learn more. It was a free webinar so I checked it out.
What I found was a group of people (Tribe) that had a common interest in sharing valuable information to help each other grow and then they went out and promoted each other to all the friends and followers in order to spread the word. It was a group that was all about teaching you to be better at online social media marketing.
They were giving others the skills they acquired and passed it on. I jumped at the chance to get involved and learn from them. In a short few weeks I found myself in a Tribe. I was learning the ins and outs of Blogging, Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, Content Development and then Syndication. This one concept, Tribe Syndication has shortened my learning curve and sky rocketed my presence on social media. This is a concept that is beginning to catch on and is going to be Huge for me and my business in the next few months. I can only imagine what it will look like at the end of the year.
A few months ago I finally came to the realization that I was going to start a blog. I had put off this concept for over 3 years. Many people would tell me to “Just start one.” “You need a blog to get your message out there.” “There’s a lot of money to be made by blogging.” All good points but I had my doubts.
Could I create a blog and provide enough content to keep readers coming back? How often do I need to keep feeding this blog thing? Do I need a technical degree to set it up? And the biggest question we all face is… How do I get traffic? So many questions… but I finally took the plunge and got a blog started with the help of a few friends.
As I was looking around at many different blogs I realized that some were just empty. There was no life, no energy… no community. I knew that I would face the same issues. How to get traffic? So I figured that if I had these questions, others did as well.
So I reached out to several people and purposed a blogging alliance. I was looking to create a mastermind group of a few people who would comment on each others blog and “buzz” each others content. Social Tribes for content syndication was born.
It was not hard to find a few people who caught the vision and wanted to play ball. They are all over the social media sites. Most of them are busy promoting their own content. However there are a few who seem to be climbing the social sites faster than others.
These are the people I resonated with. For some reason winners attract winners. And that’s the people I wanted to hang around with… winners!
Since the initial conception of the blogging alliance I have seen several benefits come from this team dynamic. Benefits like; Real relationships, lots of exposure to your blog and website, content syndication, rapid learning curve and potential joint ventures. My vision and future is 1000′s of syndication circles all over the world at all times of the day and night.
We have all grown in our knowledge of social media and blogging and the best part… is it’s all free!
As I’m listening to Pandora Internet radio on my Iphone, I see an advertisement pop up under the song for “Gilbert Homes For Sale”. Gilbert is a local community near me. Big business is finally getting the hint that print media is dead. What does that mean for the work from home entrepreneur or even the local brick and mortar business owner?
(Bold headline)The Entrepreneur has more of a Mega-phone than ever before!
In my last blog post, (LINK What the hell is blogging?) I revealed that even though big business is struggling in this economy, the small brick and mortar business, as well as the stay at home entrepreneur, have more of a profitable megaphone than ever. We have more power at out fingertips than you can imagine. There are hundreds of ways to get any information we want at the click of a mouse, or push of a button. We have Iphones, Smart phones…We even have video game players that are hooked up to the internet.
Big Business has gotten the hint. They are now shifting their advertising budgets front failing print media to Social Media and Web 2.0 technologies. The problem is they still have the “put it in your face” mentality. The trick is to create RAVING FANS for your product or service. Customer service and the Go-Giver attitude are essential to a successful business. You have to go where people are searching.
The work from home mom and local chiropractor have more opportunities to let their voice be heard than ever before. BUT do they know it? Very few people are even taking advantage of Social Media Marketing, and if they are, they are doing it all wrong. The only way to get the attention of your viewer is one to be in the exact place they are searching, and two get their attention by providing high value content. Valuable training, valuable resources that they can actually use in their daily lives.

I woke up today really pissed off. It took me a little bit to figure out WHY. The best way to describe it, is to use a bath as an analogy. Would you rather have a cold bath, a lukewarm bath, or a nice hot steamy relaxing bath?
Seems like an easy question but if you dig a little deeper it really relates to self motivation and your life. I’m sure at first glance everyone would say they would rather have the nice hot steamy relaxing bath. I would.
That’s the goal. In terms of the lifestyle, we all strive for the nice hot steamy relaxing bath. We all have a different vision of what that lifestyle would look like.
Why would I rather have a cold bath, or a hot both over the lukewarm bath? The definition of lukewarm is “moderately warm”, but another definition is“lacking conviction”
A lukewarm bath is not too cold to motivate you to get out, but not hot enough to stay in and enjoy the experience. Eventually the water gets too cold and you get out, or you decide to crank up the heat and make it warm and cozy.
The cold bath makes us want to get out. Some people are experiencing the cold bath with a loss of a job or other life situations. Maybe your spouse is working 80 hours a week in three jobs and it’s affecting your family in a negative way. These types of situations seem devastating, but are they really? Depends on how you REACT to them.
The cold bath is a good thing. It makes you search for solutions. The solutions are out there. We have more power to thrive and succeed than ever before in history. The problem lies in a feeling of helplessness. When times are rough we have a hard time seeing the forest through the trees.
What if you were in a helicopter and could see the view above the trees? In other words it only takes the proper mentality to find the knowledge and the skills to turn your computer into an ATM machine.
If you don’t believe me, I can prove it. I would be happy to show you, exactly what it takes to jump out of that cold bath. It takes knowledge and skill of a few online marketing strategies, a few online marketing tools, and oh ya…you have to WORK YOUR ASS OFF!
Ok, I’m sure I just lost a few of you. But if you have the proper mentality to succeed online, you are probably still here. The good news is, if you are in it for the marathon and not the sprint, all that work pays off. And it pays off in a big way.
If you truly are in the cold bath right now, you don’t need the motivation to work your ass off. It comes naturally. It beats the alternative. It just takes faith that you are truly learning the exact right strategies to succeed online.
I can tell you that I’ve struggled for over 15 years learning the right skills. Along that path I’ve made thousands of mistakes and learned from every one of them.
If you are in a lukewarm bath right now, you have a choice to make. You can embrace the lifestyle you have and save a ton of time and money. Or you can decide to get pissed off with your current situation, get the proper online marketing tools, and learn the most effective online marketing strategies.
You see, you can’t just tip your toe and hope you will get rich. Only you can decide where you are at in life? If you have enough motivation, all you need is some skill and some knowledge. And oh ya…you need to take ACTION on that knowledge.
I recently joined forces with with what I call “My Tribe”. In addition to the knowledge, the skill, and the proper mentality for success, you need a network. That is formula for success.
