Trent Reznor small

This article draws 3 of my favourite pastimes – Social Media Marketing, Movies and Music, and not just any music band, Nine inch Nails ladies and gentlemen. Trent Reznor together with Atticus Ross (NIN Producer) have teamed up to to create the appropriate sound for this dynamic movie. But be warned though, don’t go into the movie cinema expecting only haunting and dark passages of music entirely, because this is a movie you have to allow space for emotional, visual and aural expressions.

As Reznor states on the site ( http://www.nullco.com/TSN/ ) “Musically, this all came out of our secret laboratory — electronic in basis, but mostly organic sounding, lots of experiments and emphasis on sound fraying around the edges while focusing on the proper emotional tone for the various scenes.”

View the Trailer for The Social Network here:

The question after the trailer most probably would be, is the movie really any good?

Well according to Reznor Speaking of the film… “it’s really fucking good. And dark! “

In another article MG Siegler from Techcrunch also writes: “As he announces  on the official Nine Inch Nails site, Trent Reznor will be doing the score for the film. It seems as if there’s entirely too much talent behind this movie now for it to fail — or at least, for it to be awful.” MG Siegler

Well if it’s any consideration I’m sold, even if it’s only to watch a decently produced movie with a great soundtrack, that’s enough for me.

For fans of the soundtrack Reznor and Atticus have made some of the files available for download at http://www.nullco.com/TSN/

Taken from the site: “You can check out the full track list and download some of them here. There are a plethora of options for owning the work too: Digital download, CD, 180-gram double vinyl LP, and somewhat excessively, lossless stereo and 5.1 surround HD Blu-ray disc. This movie is going to be so huge, there are more formats and options to purchase the score alone than there are for most entire movies.

- Trent Reznor, 9.16.10”

Facebook and Twitter are powerful tools for Social Marketing.

They allow you to connect with like-minded people all over the world and it’s fast, convenient, mainstream and free.

Here is a formula I’ve been using to leverage the power of Facebook and Twitter by using them together in my social networking.

Why both?

To keep it really simple, I use Twitter to build my list. It’s fast. Much faster to build a list of targeted people than Facebook.

I use Facebook to provide more depth and build better relationships.

From your Facebook page people get to read your notes, view videos, share pictures etc…

You can write longer messages which add more depth to your relationship building on Facebook than on Twitter where you only have 140 characters tot get your point across including any links to other information.

From Facebook, if people are interested in learning more about what you do and how your solutions can help them, they can click to get to your blog, your videos on Youtube or directly to your marketing funnel’s lead capture page to get on your personal newsletter.

The leverage is amazing!

Here’s what I’ve done to quickly get people from my Twitter list of followers, to my Facebook tribe:

1. You can use TweetLater (free tool) which allows you to create an automated “direct message” that ALL NEW FOLLOWERS receive to their Twitter page and their personal email. It’s on autopilot. Most people are losing it here… depserate for a sale of some sort, they use this powerful tool to spam some immediate offer. That can KILL YOUR SOCIAL NETWORKING fast.

My message simply says:

“Hey there thanks for the follow! Catch me on my Facebook page too here and don’t be a stranger! Cya…”

That’s it. I told you attraction marketing is simple.

So everyone that follows me on Twitter receives that message and it builds my Facebook list on autopilot. All I do is seek interesting people in my niche of choice and follow them. The culture in Twitter is to reciprocate the follow and that’s as simple as it gets.

2. I post update tweets and share quotes, information, news, tips and jokes on Twitter all the time and most times I provide the link to my Facebook page. People click and join me on Facebook.

3. I tweet SPECIFICALLY about joining me on Facebook. Why not?

“Hey, are you networking with me on Facebook> yet? C’mon over!”

PURE SIMPLICITY at work.

More Twitter tips.

By finding influential people and leaders in your niche and following them, you will be seen in their follower’s lists. This means you give yourself free exposure and as other people look to follow like minded people connected to the influential person (you) they see and follow you.

So by simply finding and following leaders in your niche, you’ll begin to grow your followers viraly, which is really cool. And remember it sets the whole cycle in motion.

How do I use Facebook?

It’s a powerful platform for a home based business owner. You can share YOU on Facebook. Profile. Pictures. Videos. Notes. Info on what you’re doing… etc.

I love using the “notes” application.

Attraction Marketing is all about sharing compelling information with others. Here’s how I do it.

1. Buy great information on personal growth and internet marketing. Now you have value to share.

2. I create blog posts of training info on my personal blog and also submit articles that get indexed by search engines.

3. I then create mini articles which link to the full articles on my blog and I publish those mini articles on Facebook’s “notes.”

4. I then invite my Facebook and Twitter friends to check out my notes, which leads them to my blogs or videos or articles… and then to my marketing funnel (lead capture page) and that is how I build my marketing list and get people exposed to my business, products, services etc.

So that’s it. A simple way to use Facebook and Twitter together to:

1. Build a tribe of followers

2. Build relationships with like minded people

3. Share valuable information and invite to your marketing funnel

4. Build your marketing list

5. Generate sales and build multiple income streams.

Did you know pretty much everything I’ve laid out here is free of any advertising costs as well?

The power and leverage your have at your fingertips is SHOCKING. All it takes to convert this free social networking leverage into multiple income streams is a little bit of creativity and your effort to share value with others. Nothing else stands in your way.
