Branding yourself or your company is not easy, it take efforts to make your mark in the industry by serving good quality products or services. When you want to create a brand in front of your users you are actually trying to engrain a certain image in their minds so that they will recollect it when they are out shopping in similar lines we are going to discuss few of such things to create your online brand. I have seen many users often changing their nick names or company names or creating 4 to 5 accounts in one single networking site, this is completely wrong, how can you expect people to remember you with different names and images every time they log in so make sure to start using the same user name and the profile picture in whatever social networks you register to.

Consistency is one thing you have to maintain if you are really keen on creating your brand image in front of your readers. If you are planning to use different services then stick by the same user name you did for the last site and also remember to use the same for your messengers too. This will help people remember you as some company they talked with last time and having the same email addresses as your user name gives an added benefit as it becomes easier to recollect it while mailing.

If you have selected to write name in particular style then stick by it, for example, if you write “ThriLLer” then make sure every time you type in your user name you type it in similar lines. By this I want to tell you that you have to maintain the alphabet consistency. Post the

same profile picture for the all the networking sites, if you have put some company logo then match it the same way in all of the profile networks. It is best advised to have your company logo as other users will remember the logo better than the face. Some networking site allows you to have your custom made template that will help to build your brand, so if you are creating some attractive template with company design logo at the back and also including some elements of your company this will give you an extra personality. The same template can be used for other networks that permit custom designs.

If you are the one always sending in emails it is best to format a good email signature so every time you send mails the signature is added automatically at the end of the mail. This will help you to be consistent in every email that steps out of your mailbox. Make your presence felt in all the networking platforms, the prime most important is having a proper website designed with a professional mail address. If you have just started off, then you need to learn a lots of things about networking, you can select your niche by deciding on the topic which you like the most and then proceed ahead with joining the similar networks that will help you develop your skills.

The very first one is reciprocity – we know that business involves give and take relation, whether its money giving or a barter exchange you have to gain something in return. Internet business involves assurance you cannot sell anyone to anyone, you have to have good reason to sell it and provide a real value for the product to your customers. In business you cant afford to have loyal friends or loyal customers, they will switch to other brands if they are not satisfied with your product, so use the best of all the resource you have to persuade them in buying the product.

You can add value to your product, by putting your product profile in ads, newspapers, hoardings, writing a blog providing vital information on the product, etc. this way people will appreciate your efforts and try your product against other products of similar category.

Scarcity is one another thing which needs to be taken care of, when it comes to business remember one thing the more scarce the product it will fetch a real good value, remember the days when you used to go shopping for Christmas and people used to head for one unique product item, the mental psychology of people is such so even the fad of all products will yield a good price if marketed properly. Having a scarcity in your business some might say a bad sign, but it is a powerful weapon which will increase the product value and validity, it is similar to that of someone collecting old stamps, old coins, etc. remember if you have some scarce products, market them properly and give correct value of its use to the people. You can also build a rare scarcity in to your products, you can say to your clients about limited supply from company and that prices will increase in a short while. You can quote a special price for the product for a particular date that will assure your buyers to buy them quickly.

Liking is something that comes and should come naturally, a person is persuaded into buying a product only when he likes it otherwise no one is going to spend money on it. We know and we trust people you are close to, so building good relations is important in business, with proper transparency both the parties can trust each other and have good mutual bond with their audience. You can have or built up various affiliations in business world and try connecting to the people this way. You can send them links through various internet ads companies and also writing blogs can help for people would know more about the product and its uses. You can even state your own opinions regarding the subject matter.

Authority is a must for expanding your influence over people, you just cannot start selling products unless you have detailed knowledge about the product. You have to have good knowledge about the product and be an expert in the field. People should be benefited listening to you and their experience with you should be a pleasant and knowledgeable one, the benefit should be in the form of knowledge which will persuade them into buying your product after knowing its benefits.

May whatever you do be on the top list of achiever, whether its in marketing or doing business with your clients, when you give your 100% to them then shall you get true returns in terms of profits, you can share your ideas or views or comment on your thoughts and those written by others.

Social – proof is something you cannot ignore, we all know that its human tendency to follow people, follow up comes when you have trust on the person you are following, it is but obvious for the people to look at what others are doing and try doing the same thing because its popular. Take for example the case of a restaurant, you are new to the area and you want to eat, there are number of restaurants in line in the area but you tend to go and eat where there are more people because of the social proof that the food is good in the restaurant.

The same thing you can apply for marketing of your business and your product, try providing social proof to your clients or customers or buyers this would be the best example for them to understand and see for themselves about the validity of the product and its usage.

Consistency is what people ask for in any transaction, people get obsessed with your products only when they get used to it, and they will get used to it only when they are comfortable in using them. Success doesn’t come in just one day, it’s a gradual process which assures your buyers of all the experiences with you and while using your product too. You have to commit yourself entirely to business for the well being of your clients and customers, their happiness should be the top priority.

If you are very sure of your success rate then you can well go ahead with your plans and achieve your success. Choose yourself one thing which you can master in and see the results, you should be real passionate about the work you are doing if its marketing then give all your efforts the best of skills you have. We have seen lots of books about marketing and the prices are also sky-rocketing so the best way to cut cost is to follow robert’s guidelines given in his book and also what is stated here. This is just a short and brief idea about his book and the people who have understood this well would not require a book at first place.

You can share your views freely with me, regarding whatever written on influence or psychology, you can also comment and advice on things you strongly feel about.

Powerful Persuasion – Using 6 Key Principles

One – Reciprocity

It is necessary to give value to prospective clients if you want positive results in return. This is a principle that is used in most all relationships, whether it is a friendship, or a business relationship. You are spinning your wheels if you try to keep the relationships alive, without adding a little of your own value to them. It is effective to offer free products like videos, reports, or ebooks through blog posts, newsletters, or email campaigns. In return, you can benefit from the reward of selling more of your products.

Two – Scarcity

The scarcity of any type of product is a known factor that often results with individuals paying much higher prices than what would normally be spent on even similar items that are not benefiting from the scarce factor. When there is not an over abundance of a specific product, the more individuals will want to purchase the product. Learn to build scarcity into your marketing and in the products that you offer. You just might be surprised at the results when you emphasize the fact that the supply is limited. When there are only a specific number of items available, this is a factor that adds to the power you have for selling your products. Adding the bonus of a consultation with a limited amount of informational products you are offering will place additional value on the packages you offer, and make the opportunity something that prospective buyers will not want to miss out on.

Three – Liking

Rarely will an individual be jumping in line to do business with someone they have no connection to, or they simply do not like. It is extremely important to always build a likeable character that prospective buyers are easily able to connect to. Introducing your personality and character through blog posts that contain your ideas and opinions can be very beneficial to you. Videos of you that explain these ideas can also be very helpful. Getting involved in areas such as Subscribing to places like MySpace or Facebook is a great way to get your name in the loop and in front of prospects.

Four – Authority

Aside from simply becoming a well-known name that people are familiar with, you will also need to obtain expert knowledge about the services or products that you offer. Continuously gaining added knowledge about the products that you sell or the specific services that you provide are an advantage that can pay of immensely in the long run. Show your prospects that you have a high level of knowledge and experience that would be hard to top with any other company. Showing the knowledge you have on blogs by using case studies and examples with show authority and expertise that you have gained in your niche.

Five – Social Proof

It can be very effective to highlight any social proof events that have occurred within your business. Although it can be frustrating when a server has crashed, if this is a problem that you have experienced because of the tremendous amount of traffic visiting your site, you will want to use it as social proof. Write posts in your blog or email marketing apologizing for the down time. Others will often think there must be something they are missing out on, and they will follow the lead and visit your site as well. Letting prospects know about accomplishments can be a great way to get a hook into their interest.

Six – Commitment and Consistency

It takes a large amount of effort and hard work to become successful on the Internet. If you know your ideas are outstanding, keep striving and don’t let the idea of giving up enter your mind. There are an endless amount of fly-by-night money grabbers that are here one day and are gone the next. Let the prospects that may be following your efforts, know that you are here to stay and committed. Whatever the niche you choose, build it into something of value.
