Top 10 Twitter Tools for MLM Professionals

By Dan Mitchell, MLM Blog Correspondent

Guy Kawasaki says that Twitter is the most important marketing tool since the television. You can read more from Guy at How to Use Twitter as a Twool.

Over the last 2 weeks I've gone a bit Twitter crazy - 18 hours a day trying all the tips, tricks and tools related to this new Web 2.0 phenomenon. Here's my report on the Top 10 Twitter Tools for MLM Professionals.

1. Power Twitter
The name says it all...this is Twitter on steroids...perfect for network marketers. Their goal is to make Twitter better. Unfortunately it only works with Firefox so far but they're working on versions for Safari and Chrome. Power Twitter allows you to share photos, videos and music. Follow @powertwitter for the latest news.

2. TweetDeck
TweetDeck is one of the most popular Twitter clients. TweetDeck makes the mountains of tweets manageable. An alternative to TweetDeck is DestroyTwitter. Or Tweetie. Or...the list goes on.

3. TwitterFeed
TwitterFeed allows you to feed all new Blog posts directly to Twitter. Syndicate yourself. This is a great tool for anyone who has an MLM Blog or a blog about a specific Network Marketing company.

4. Twitter Karma
Find out what your Twitter Karma. Be careful not to bulk unfollow everyone.

4. Twitter Counter
Twitter Counter allows you to compare yourself with other Twitter users.

5. Twitter Grader
Once you've begun tweeting get your Twitter Grade from Twitter Grader.

6. Tweet Later
Tweet Later is a productivity tool for "busy tweeple". Tweet Later gives you the ability to schedule tweets, track keywords on Twitter, Send welcome direct messages to new followers, automatically follow those who follow you, unfollow those who unfollow you and manage multiple Twitter accounts with TweetCockpit.

7. Twist
Twist allows you to track trends on Twitter. There's also TwitScoop.

8. Qwitter
Qwitter monitors who quits following you...so you can quit following them! Jerks!

9. TweetAdder
Tweet Adder is for you if you're looking for more followers. Try the Free Trial.

10. bit.ly
bit.ly is a simple url shortener. Many Twitter tools have bit.ly support built-in but you can go direct to the source.

Enjoy the Twitterverse.

MLM Traffic Formula 2 By Mike Dillard, Reviewed

By Ty Tribble, MLM Blog Founder

I know.  The headline might be a little misleading because I can't very well review something that has not launched yet.  So let me say that the day that this product becomes available, I will buy it and I don't care how much it costs.  

One tip from Mike Dillard's MLM Traffic School original version made me over $50,000 last year.

So stay tuned and I will keep you posted about MLM Traffic Formula 2.

More Randy Gage Nonsense

Randy Gage is scared.  Scared of web 2.0 and new media.

In his latest BLOG POST, he says the following:

"If you think you need a blog, your duplication will suffer…"

Seriously?  Did Randy just tell me that duplication will suffer as a result of blogging....from his blog?

Can he get any more hypocritical? 

Here is the problem with Randy Gage. He is working very hard to keep a duplicatable model in place that frankly doesn't work for the majority of people. 

Rather than appease all of the old school croonies who are proud at the fact that they can't check their email, wouldn't it be wise to embrace the good things about the web?

I will be the very first to tell you that no one has ever built a long term residual income in Network Marketing strictly online without creating relationships.  It's all about relationships.  Randy Gage knows it's all about relationships and that is why he is blogging and using an auto-responder.

Why is he telling you not to use these tools?

Business Tip: Google The Person Before You Spam Them

I won't mention the spammers persons name that sent me an email with the following headline:

"Are you getting the results you want from your internet activities?"

The headline was large and red...and screamed spam. 

So let's look closely here at what this person did...

1. Farmed my name and email from somewhere on the net.
2. Composed a spammy email meant to spark my interest in his "solutions"

Here is the problem:

The dude has no idea who I am (or who his target market is). For the love of Pete, Mr. Spammy is asking me, a guy who has created over 5,000 opt in leads in the last six months (all free) on the Internet if I need help with my "internet activities".

UGH! If you are going to spam me...at least "Google" my name first so that you don't look like an idiot. The guy would have better luck selling ice-cubes to Eskimos.

And another thing: Shouldn't a guy who is pitching "internet solutions", have an Internet presence? The first thing I did (after emailing the guy and asking if he was joking) was "Google",  Mr. Spammy.  I couldn't find anything listed in the Google top ten under his name.

For the record, if I am looking for "solutions" for my "internet activities", I call Mike Dillard or Tim Erway.  I might email Perry Marshall or Ken Evoy or I might seek out Eben Pagan, Tom Bell, Seth Godin or Yanik Silver for some coaching.  Mr. Spammy need not apply to help me with my "activities".

SiteBuildIt For Network Marketing Web Sites

I have been looking at SiteBuildIt, a product from SiteSell as an all in one web site building, hosting and marketing solution that seems to (just now) be catching on with the Network Marketing crowd.  I found SiteBuildIt through my Renegade Network Marketing back office affiliates and thought I would let you in on my research...

Here are some different links to research:

Site Build It Network Marketing Page -

The Internet should be the best thing since sliced bread for Network Marketers. But it's being done all wrong, by all the wrong people. It starts at the top. If your company is still stuck in the "analog, old-world model" and if your upline fails to grasp the lessons in this site, what chance do you have?

SiteBuildIt for eBusiness -

It is the only, all-in-one, site-brainstorming-and-building-and-
hosting-and-marketing, step-by-step system of software tools that delivers thriving, profitable business... and more.

Ty Tribble Google Adwords MLM Coaching

I did a coaching session this afternoon for a couple of young ladies involved with a newer Network Marketing company called Zrii and they sent me a really cool note that I can't help but share.

I was pretty hesitant to offer coaching a couple of months ago, but with testimonies like this, I think I am going to have to continue...

We are high as a kite after our coaching session with Ty!  He turned us on to secrets to hone our Google Adwords campaign that would have cost us $1000s in trial and error had we tried to go it alone.  There are lots of teachers who can guide you on finding effective keywords, but network marketing is another animal completely.  Ty was incredible!  He was careful to understand our desired take-away at the end of the coaching, and it was obvious from the first minute that he wanted to exceed our expectations... let me tell you, he blew them out of the water!!  Thank you, Ty, for the invaluable direction!  We, your lifelong groupies now, will go forth and prosper!
