WHO WINS THE POPULARITY CONTEST?
![Page 7: How to Develop a Community and Foster Social Relationships](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042815/55672a67d8b42a986b8b46c5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SO WHAT IS AN INFLUENCER?
It’s NOT a popularity contest Content and Influence must inspire ACTION
What value can we create for ourselves and our audience?
Influencers eat, sleep and breath the topics they write about They are super connected and always on They make the boring and dry topics fascinating The create a TON of awesome content They know who YOU are and what YOU want They’re hip, happening and current They’re trustworthy

ARE WE LISTENING?
“They stand out in a sea of noise because time and again, they've proven their voice is worth listening to and their advice worth taking.”

KEY INFLUENCER TAKEAWAYS
Create networks based on topics you want to grow; you’re content is creating an experience
It’s about being the BEST answer for your audience: what is your brand/company the BEST answer for?
Influencer content always tells a story, helps answer a question and evokes a reaction
How do you find them? “Find people who say something and people respond
and do something as a reaction to it” –Lee Oden Listen on social media Follow, follow, follow!
It takes time: work on these relationships long before you need to use them

GOOGLE+: DEVELOPING COMMUNITY
Most of us want the result right away without doing much preparation work BUT…you have to do a lot of things before getting
the one thing you really want Meaning:
Create FIRST, then think about distribution Communities are a great place to start sharing
your unique content Don’t directly ask people to share your content;
create a relationship with them and they will share it on their own
It takes TIME to build communities and a good following but if you put the time in, you’ll come out with quality followers and audience members

HOW DO I MEASURE SUCCESSFUL POSTS?
Most Important Metrics: +1’s and comments Shares and follower count not as important to Google Use bit.ly to track click through rates
Key Mistakes Not organizing your circles “What’s the best xxx?”
Instead: Tell me the best xxx Can’t share content out of a public community Use content AND #hashtags together…not alone Content dumping
Think about your audience when content planning Updates G+ bios when people leave or are added to
a practice/firm

TOP EXPERT TAKEAWAYS
What makes Google+ better than Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn? Content is King and it lives on…and on…and on You can get engagement on posts months after
your original post Adding a community into a circle automatically
makes their content more relevant in your search results
Google authorship allows your image to show up next to your posted content; easy to identify
Eyes go to images first; Google+ is heavily influenced by visual content

TOP EXPERT TAKEAWAYS
How do you get engagement on your content? Think outside the box; create entertaining posts Take risks Humanize your audience; talk to them as if they
were right in front of you Use interesting, non-branded images Link back to your site at the bottom of a post Create and join communities you’re interested in Are you looking for increased traffic or more
engagement?

COMMUNITIES 101
Communities: “They aren’t interested in you, they are interested in a common topic” – panel
The first question is usually “what is this going to do for us?” when we SHOULD be asking “what can it do for our client?” Ex. Join us when we talk to so-and-so who is a
thought leader in xyz Can be great for SEO but…
Talk to your SEO team to craft keywords around the clients goals
Highlight the highest converting pages
