Using Twitter for a product launch is not a topic you see very much information on so I decided to put this video article together to help you.

Enjoy and leave a comment below with ways you have used twitter to launch a new product or service.

The most useful comment will receive a Free copy of my “Google First Page Formula“ .

Ultimately do you have a contingency plan?

The fact of the matter is having a contingency plan is sometimes what makes and breaks a company. Let’s take a look at Toyota for example. They’re suffering some major PR bruising right now because they’ve failed to act timely and confidently in the face of their automotive problems.

Comparing that to Johnson & Johnson – the definitive contingency planning company When someone reported they’d found a needle in their shampoo – J&J went into action. They’d already brainstormed that problem and had a book with the fix already written. Within a week they had all the affected shampoo out of stores and new “Needle-Free” labeled shampoo on the shelves.

You know that Twitter has become part of your life because you can barely watch any news program that doesn’t cite Twitter or invite you to comment on Twitter. More and more people are joining Twitter following companies brands and people and “believing” what is being tweeted. That being said it’s also largely out of your control.

Everyday people are encountering twitter problems like:

    * Spammers
    * Lost Followers
    * Lost Profile Photo
    * Deleted Account
    * or the inability to log-in among others

The key is to get the solution in your hands BEFORE you have any Twitter problems. For example there are two things you have to do to stop a spammer should they get access to your account. Unless you do both you likely won’t stop them. And once you see spam with your name on it how long do you have to fix it before your customers’ notice? Before they complain? Before they unfollow you?

My friend Dan Morris wrote a report called TwitterGlitch that highlights these problems how to fix them who to talk to at Twitter to get them fixed and even which third party “help desks” are monitored by Twitter.

(( By the way… If you don’t know Dan you should. He’s a great guy really smart and a lot of fun. You can find Dan on Twitter. His username is  DanRMorris. Follow him and let him know I sent you.))

Dan told me the easiest and smartest thing you can do to protect your Twitter account is to click on “Profile” everyday and make sure all the tweets on your front page were left by you. And if you’re using Tweetdeck or Hootsuite make it a habit to log-in to Twitter.com once per week to check your account log-in.

Otherwise you may want to get a copy of TwitterGlitch and have the solutions to your Twitter problems in your hands. Don’t make finding the solutions your second problem.

November Namecheap Coupon Code

I just returned home on Monday from the Internet Success System Conference in Atlanta hosted by Mark Hendricks for the ISS members.

And I have to say I had a great time. I always do though.

Here is a quick run down on what happened.

First… everyday included networking at lunch dinner and into the late hours of the evening. I enjoy the networking. It’s perfect for catching up with old friends and getting to know new ones.

This time proved extremely good for myself and some others. I have another conference that I may get to present at in December. I am looking forward to that.

And… myself and my good friend Craig Sunney started a software project together.

Cant wait for the software to be completed. You’ll like it… All I’m going to say for now is that it is another way to get a boatload of traffic to your site.

So let’s go over the conference and what it included.

The conference started on Thursday with one of Mark’s famous Q&A sessions. These are always good. It is where you can ask any question you may have about the internet and internet marketing.

A lot of great questions were asked.

Then we ended the sessions with a presentation from Mark on how to strategically create and design the life you desire.

Very… Very… Good…

Friday we did part 2 of the strategic planning. Then I spoke about article creation. It turned out really good. Everyone created some articles for article marketing but we also used the articles for some other neat things.

You’ll hear about that in a minute.

Cindi Dawson talked about using audio for fun and profit.

And then we created an audio track from our article. The audio could be submitted to a podcast and used other ways…  Which we will cover here shortly.

Then I did another presentation on press releases. At the end of the presentation we created a quick press release in a little less than 10 minutes. We used a new PR template pack I created. If you would like to download 3 free press release templates you can do so here: http://joemarsh.com/freeprtemplates

Saturday… We did part 3 of designing your life. Then after lunch we created a video from the article and audio we did earlier. What is neat is that it was all done with free tools. Very cool…

Chris Lockwood did a presentation on membership sites. Chris is like the membership site king. They have been very good to him and he also just released a huge membership site product.

After Chris we had a surprise panel discussion with Jim Straw and Michael Penland. Both these guys are very classy and successful when it comes to marketing… both online and offline.

This discussion was great…

And then we ended the day with a special ISS dinner for all the ISS gold members. We always have one of these at every conference and it is kindly given to us by Mark at no cost to the gold members.

Then finally on Sunday… We finished with part 4 of the strategic planning session. The whole process we did was very eye opening. I really appreciate Mark doing this for us.

After that we had Joey Smith do a presentation on social media and social bookmarking. Joey has done some really fantastic things with Twitter. He is one person who knows what is going on there and how to use that platform.

Next we had Cindi again and this time she spoke about using Kunaki to create physical products. Very good information. She also released her new Instant Audio Magic product. You will be hearing about this product in some up coming emails and posts. Make sure to watch for it. It is for those who use audio on their web sites.

Then my friend Jackie Tulos did a presentation on Facebook and how to use the power of fan pages for yourself or the clients you may have. Jackie is really smart and talented in the area of social media. She is so good she even runs campaigns for some candidates running for political office.

Then we finished the day with another Q&A session.

WOW… What a ton of information. It was a really great conference.

We learned a lot and made fantastic connections.

Well my fingers are tired from pounding the keyboard. Even my wife asked what the heck I was typing.

I hope someday we see you at an ISS Conference. The next one is in April so as we get closer I’ll let you know. You’ll be really glad if you come.

Until next time.. My best to you.

First create a profile on Twitter.

You can create a profile here >> http://joe-marsh.com/twitter

Your profile will include your username. Your username is what people will associate you with and will brand you… So choose the appropriate name.

Enter your profile information… some information about yourself. Link back to your main site. Use a profile picture and make it a real picture of you. Not something fake. People want to know who you are.

Do a searches on Twitter for people using the terms that are appropriate to your field or niche. Start following these people. Follow 50-100 people each day to keep it simple… You can follow more if you want.

Post status updates… helpful information about your field or niche that others can use. Include links to your site and other sites that are helpful for people in your field or niche.

Continue everyday to follow people and post updates to your account on Twitter. Do this 3 times each day for 15 minute each time and build it from there. If you want… you can spend more time doing this but just be careful. It can become a big time suck and you could find yourself not getting other things done as far as traffic generation.

After you have registered follow me on Twitter. To follow me go here >> http://joe-marsh.com/twitterjoemarsh
