Recently I posted a video called You Can’t Buy Home Business Success in which I discussed all the ways that over the years I have seen people try to purchase something that they felt would bring them the success they desired.
I made a big long list of the fads I have seen come and go over the last ten years and during my list I mentioned a term that I had no idea meant so much to so many people….
The term was TRIBE.
Now not being a true “blogger” (I just use this site to communicate with folks)and not being of the blogging community per se…I had no idea that people felt so strongly about their TRIBES and I really had no idea that there were so many types and what these various groups offered.
I was just speaking out about what seemed to be another thing that people were trying to sell as THE ANSWER to little guys and also groups that exist solely for the purpose of passing content that is designed for financial gain where members promote ONLY for the sake of getting their own pieces promoted…and if you watch the video you will understand my intention…
I certainly would never speak against alliances between responsible marketers and content providers that help great pieces get read by more people.
So I’d like to pass along to all of you a great piece written by a wonderful new acquaintance Kimberly Castleberry of Just-Ask-Kim.com where she runs down all the types of content syndication tribes out there.
Hopefully this will explain all of the types of groups out there so you can make an educated decision if you should be looking to join one.
My main message that I have had forever and that I will keep preaching as long as I am in business is that you MUST build your core skills if you want to have a long lasting business.
Becoming an excellent communicator is one of the most important skills you can have and being a part of a network full of people who are bent on sharing excellent content HAS to be a good thing.
Thanks Kim for helping me to understand a whole world that is out there for us to all check out.
