Rob's 'Selling Yourself' Blog

I've been so busy on my social media marketing that I haven't had time to blog about it! Makes me think that if you're talking about what you're doing more than you're actually doing it, you've either got money and time to burn, or you're stupid!

What I am enjoying is learning and sharing at the same time. That's why I'm continuing my interviews with experts, gurus and top practitioners who are making their mark in the world of social media. When you learn this stuff and apply it, you sell yourself and your messages in the most impactful, irresistible way!

Have a listen to this next interview as we talk with Ian Hendry, MD of WeCanDo.BIZ. This is a phenomenal website aimed at small businesses in the UK. It uses social networking methods to help you collect and use referrals from customers to win new customers.

Ian is a powerful networker, a top entrepreneur and incredibly insightful on what it takes to market yourself and your messages online.

In these two 9 minute interviews, you'll discover how to properly distinguish yourself using social media and leverage the great contacts you make online!
