One of the first things to remember when it comes to Social Media Marketing and selling is that people hate to feel like they are being sold to. People can get very irate at constantly being sold to, so when it comes to selling via Social media platforms you have to get creative!

However, just because people don't like to feel like they are being sold to doesn't mean that they don't want to buy. You just have to be very clever about how you go about selling to them.

Product placement is a great way of indirectly selling your products. Have a “how to” board or an “information” board that teaches someone how to do something and have your product or brand name in there somewhere.

Use images to show your product or service positively, make people want it without realising they are being sold to by creating a desire for what you have to offer. Make it easer for your Pinterest followers to buy. On your images let people know where they can get it and for how much by adding a price tag (explained later on in the guide) just make sure it is done very subtly.

Make your content shareable. Viral reach is huge when it comes to social media marketing and selling via your social media platforms. Make sure your pins are enticing enough to be shared by others, use engaging words when you are being descriptive, again just make sure its not all that apparent that they are being sold to!

You want to create a desire and a need for the product you are selling, but you need the end user to feel like wanting it is their idea not that you have been giving them the hard sell. If you are lucky enough to have someone influential or even famous use your product then post an image of it, that will create that desire demand again.

The great thing about selling on Pinterest is that it gives you the opportunity to communicate using images and not words, that’s an incredibly powerful tool if you use it correctly.

Pinterest is unique from other Social Media Platforms, as it gives you the opportunity to display your products and prices via a price tag, you could create a board that essentially becomes a catalogue or gift guide for the products or services that you provide.

What about neutral ads that don’t mention you or I? These are generally read by users as I advertisements, which means they are still considered more educational than convincing. Consider the sentence: "The one simple rule to get out of debt.” Now, let’s focus it on the user by changing it to "your one simple rule to get out of debt.” What makes it unique to me? Why is this so important that I need it in particular? This is what your customers will pick up on and what will make them want to click.

Eighth, track your metrics. Linkedln provides a great tracking tool that tells you the frequency of your clicks and what markets seem to be interested, so pay attention and focus your energies where your clicks are the strongest. These metrics also reflect time, so pay attention to what days are getting the most clicks and steer your finances towards advertising on these days.

Consider that Linkedln is meant for professionals. As a result, the primary email address most people use is their work address. Now consider that whenever there is a change to someone’s Linkedln account, the notice is sent to their linked email, and most professionals are more likely to pay attention to what is in their work email during the day while they are actually at work. They will already be in the proper mindset, so focus your energies on businesses during their working hours.

Now, consider your Return On Investment (ROI). It’s nice to think that all advertising works great, but the truth of it is that only certain advertising will work with certain groups. You will need to be extremely focused in your efforts to see results, and most people just do not click on an ad unless that ad proves to be relevant to their jobs or interests.

In looking at ROI, you need to consider several factors. One is your immediate return through Linkedln. Unfortunately, this is not seen by many as an instant money maker, so your immediate return might not be too strong. Instead, you need to focus on your long term ROI and ask yourself with each posting, "how will this ad benefit my goals?”

If your goal is to market and network to build up a larger customer pool, then make your ads for services or articles that will be hosted on your landing page. In this technique, you’re selling the page more than the product, but that will in turn lend towards brand recognition which will make people consider your product before your competition.

If your goal is to drive recognition of a product, then you need to make that product clear and upfront in your ads. Most people do not appreciate being tricked by thinking they are clicking on an ad for one service when it is really another. Tell people right up front what it is and what their benefit is so that they will be more comfortable with clicking.

In advertising, you should have a multi-layered goal that ties to each of your ads. What ads are there to drive customer recognition of your brand? What ads are there solely to drive traffic? What ads help to promote your actual services? Also, even if all of these go to their own individual landing pages, that doesn’t mean that they can’t all reference the same overall company page. Make sure you have a solid message and direction for all of your clicks to follow.

The dread most individuals have about disease (and passing away) drives them to make decisions based on that dread. Among the principles of the law of attraction is that if we act out of dread we draw in more of what we dread, in Native American healing traditions the medicine man, or shaman, is supposed to defeat his fear of disease and death and only then may he fearlessly approach the ill and dying and help them.

If the law of attraction is true, and we draw in more of what we dread, resist and attack, it’s no wonder that modern medicine is so full of side effects! The total system is rooted in dread and founded on a “war” model-attacking disease, battling infection, obliterating cancer etc..

Regrettably, when most individuals first get involved in natural healing, they bring this mentality with them. I find it intriguing to see how much of what individuals do, even in natural wellness care, is motivated by dread. For example, I see individuals who are frightened of environmental toxins and are forever concerned about their exposure to them.

I likewise see individuals who are frightened of assorted foods, saying things like, “meat is bad” and “milk is bad.” This dread and fight mindset in addition to carries over into their ceaseless blasts on modern medicine, the FDA and all the other people out to smash our health. Regrettably, this places them into the same attraction pattern that their “foes” have and produces more conflict, disharmony and finally ill health.

Battling disease will never produce wellness. As well, attacking physicians and the FDA won't better the wellness of the world. If you see The Secret you’ll learn that declaring war on something produces more of it. If you wish to produce something positive, you have to center your energy on what you wish, not what you don’t wish.

The only difference between positive and damaging thinking is this-damaging thinking is centering your attention on what you don’t wish and positive thinking is centering your attention on what you do wish. Either way, the law of attraction states you'll get more of what you center on in your life.

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking.

They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” -Steve Jobs

Many of us were never schooled how to receive. The ironic thing is that receiving is really an inborn “skill” that we all have, however it’s been disciplined out of us. Woefully, we simply haven’t had adequate role models to show us how to open up and receive.

But! It's never to late to learn - or, I ought to say, to unlearn the disciplining that veils our power to cease striving, to open up and experience the love, joyfulness, and abundant aliveness that's our birthright.

To discover how to receive, self-investigation is crucial initially, to get to be more aware of your personal dynamic for getting (or not getting). This is a crucial initial step in getting to be aware of your special relationship with abundance. A few of us are open and free with getting cash but block love and connection. For other people it might be the opposite.

Or you might have dreams to be a musician but can’t really seem to get there. Other stuff seems to get in the way. So where are you stuck? Is it in the area of relationships, cash, self-empowerment, or discovering and exercising the career that arouses and inspires you?

Remember, we’re not simply discussing getting objects here. This is about our power to open up and be cognizant of the flow of love, light, joyfulness, and well-being that’s constantly flowing and available to us. From there, things we want could appear, but that’s a spin-off.

The abundance we’re talking about here is the experience of getting tapped into what decides the quality of our lives. Out of that, all great things flow to us, both objects and experiences that nurture and affirm our hearts.

There’s an amazing “Catch 22” that I should mention. As we relinquish resistance and accept the flow of love and abundance, while initially we might feel relief and even blissfulness, that procedure will expose thicker levels of resistance, which we might experience negatively as the resistance arises for release. Then if we open up more and bring out the resistance, we feel relief, then the following layer opens for release. On and on...

The amazing thing about that is that as we go forward with this procedure and continue opening our connection with abundance, then abundance happens faster. Then there’s a bigger collective channel for love, grace, and prosperity in this world. This has an enormously favorable affect on all of us!

““The most exquisite paradox... as soon as you give it all up, you can have it all. As long as you want power, you can't have it. The minute you don't want power, you'll have more than you ever dreamed possible.”

The world is full of abundance and opportunity, but far too many people come to the fountain of life with a sieve instead of a tank car... a teaspoon instead of a steam shovel. They expect little and as a result they get little.

We have almost succeeded in leveling all human activities to the common denominator of securing the necessities of life and providing for their abundance.

I noted that people are happy here in India. When I went back home, people had everything in the materialistic sense and were surrounded with abundance, but they were not happy.

Sarah Palin lacked the preparation or temperament to be one heartbeat away from the presidency, but what she possessed in abundance was the ability to inflame political passions and energize the John McCain campaign with star quality.

I wish I had coined the phrase ’tyranny of choice,’ but someone beat me to it. The counterintuitive truth is that have an abundance of options does not make you feel privileged and indulged; too many options make you feel like all of them are wrong, and that you are wrong if you choose any of them.

If God has given you the world's goods in abundance, it is to help you gain those of Heaven and to be a good example of sound teaching to your sons, servants, and relatives.

Thank God my parents had an abundance of patience.

The older generation had greater respect for land than science. But we live in an age when science, more than soil, has become the provider of growth and abundance. Living just on the land creates loneliness in an age of globality.
