I am still talking with a couple of investors who think Twitter, myspace, facebook, youtube ect are for kids! They have no idea how much money it could be costing them by not even looking into it.
Common questions to me: "Why in the hell would anyone care or have the time to see what you are doing at the moment"?
First, voyeurism is human nature. Many people have enough curiosity that they would like a glimpse into people's lives to see the real them. What do they do when alone? Knowing what one does throughout the day can paint a more realistic picture of who a person is.
For example, I did a "Tweet " that I was eating at W.G Grinders, and linked a GPS map. One investor happened to be driving by that place and thought it would be interesting to come in and meet me in person. I was surprised! It right away gave us something to talk about!
I "tweet" when I am studying REI, which could prompt a reply of, "What aspect are you studying"? "Like some help"?
I "Tweet" when I am at a RE Auction and provide a GPS map to the location. That may help an investor in the area by alerting them of the auction they didn't know about before.
I got a "Tweet" from a Columbus Ohio investor about the government meddling into the economy. I showed my support for his "Tweet" and told him that is why I bought the domain name, "www.wearetheeconomy.com".
He replied in a seemingly passionate manner, "That is a GREAT domain name. Talk about forward thinking and claiming that the power to change is only ours and ours alone."(Actual reply copied and pasted). BOOM! Instant connection!
We BOTH are passionate about the the government staying the hell out of the way and allowing US, capitalism, the private businesses fix the economy! WE ARE THE ECONOMY!
Now, he and I have plans to get together and mastermind how we can use that domain name. We want to define the purpose of the website and it's use. (Looking for more people to input their ideas), so if the sound of it stirs you, it is a sign. Mastermind with us.
Yes, we are just scratching the surface of what we can do with this social networking.
