Only 1 in 10 Earns $10,000 or More from Social Media

Are you earning money from Social Media?

If you are raise your hand then give yourself a hug, because you represent 1 out of 10 people who are sucessfully marketing themselves or their business with social media.

I find these numbers truly amazing.

My first thought when I read something like this is it's obviously A LOT harder than I thought to really learn all the secrets to social media and make it profit.

Then something happened.

I read an email in my inbox and decided to act. My good friend Leesa Barnes, author of Podcasting for Profit, recently conducted a survey asking business leaders and business owners about their use of social media. She wanted to know how I was using social media. I participated in her survey and then waited to hear the overall results.

When they came in, I was not as surprised so much as horrified. Here's some startling news from the Social Media IQ survey:

- 5 in 10 business leaders spend 2 to 5 hours per week using social media
- 9 in 10 believe social media is somewhat or very important to their business strategy
- Despite their awareness of social media,4 in 10 haven't made any money using social media
- Only 1 in 10 have earned $10,000 or more using social media

I don't know about you, but I'd like to earn an extra $10,000 in my business!

The question is how to do it. There's always more than one way to accomplish something: an easy way and a hard way. Translation....you can do it on your own, make costly mistakes and end 2009 wondering where you went wrong.

Or....

You can spend 8 days with 18 amazing experts who are earning a six or seven figure income from social media and can teach you everything they know.

Sound like fun?

If you just cringed at the thought of some time on the phone then this isn't for you. BUT if you felt excited at the chance to work with some of the most successful individuals who are using social media AND can teach you how to do it, then READ ON.

If you're anything like me then you know social media is important for your business but you might not know what to do or where to start. Whether you're an entrepreneur who puts on the "sales hat" from time to time or if you lead a team of sales people, you know that you must evolve your marketing strategies with the Internet to survive.

So back to those experts I mentioned just a moment ago.
