Guest Quest 2008 Update – Donny Deutsch Guest or Die Blogging

By Business Intuitive Terry Hall

May 29, 2008

Donny’s people haven’t called yet and it’s been 10 days – I’m soooooooo disappointed. I knew that this social networking and blogging stuff wouldn’t work. Maybe I should try something else?!?

Oooooops, I didn’t mean to let you peek inside my head! But this morning I did wake up thinking that The Big Idea Guest Quest is a Bad Idea… This little pitty party lasted about 5 minutes. Then I got back to my game to Guest Quest 2008.

Here is what I’ve learned so far:

  • Facebook is interesting but seems to be run by people selling “Hoe to make money on Facebook” seminars, cds, consulting and tons of mini-applications. I’ve been poked, super-poked, bought drinks, bought, sold, received offers to buy my friends list.
  • I’m being followed by 7 people on Twitter. I know one person. The other 6 are following 30,000+ people. I’ve been tweeting a bit. Jury is still out…
  • Through LinkedIn I’ve been able to locate several past “The Big Idea” guests, some past and present “The Big Idea” staff. I’m considering upagrading my account so I can connect more quickly. – I had a premium account before, but was too scattered to benefit from it – with my reinvention as a Business Intuitive and Ask Terry Hall branding, it feels right – 2.7 Intuitive Index…
  • I’ve been locked out of myspace for a couple of days… “too many attempts too log in” the box to verify that I am human doesn’t accept my response…
  • On Plaxo’s Pulse I’ve reconnected with several people. It’s fun – to reconnect.
  • I’ve tried to integrate twitter into pulse and facebook. Not sure that it’s working.
  • I promoted my radio program “Get The Intuitive Edge in Your Business and Life” on twitter, pulse, facebook and linkedin – I had 79 people download the first program and I’ll track this weeks downloads. You can listen to yesterday’s program at http://blogtalkradio.com/askterryhall

So far the learning curve is quite high and the results low with social networks. Like anything it seems to take a while to get established and build relationships.

The only thing that I’ve found out that is a concern is that it seems that Facebook tracks actively tracks your every move on the internet. Not just when your signed into Facebook, but also when you’re signed out. Also the developers of Facebook applications get your information when you take the application. Concerned or not? Again the jury is still out…

Stay tuned for my next Guest Quest 2008!

So far:

  • Myspace: Made Friend Request to Donny’s myspace page – not accepted yet
  • posted “updates” looking to be a guest on Facebook, twitter, LinkedIn, myspace, pulse plaxo
  • Posted blog article announcing the project… Blog Post
  • Spoke about Guest Quest 2008 on my radio program http://blogtalkradio.com/askterryhall
  • Found producers of The Big Idea on LinkedIn.com

That’s the update for this week. My feelings right now are that social networking is a good business for people that sell social networking tools, tips, seminars and programs. But creating business relationships on-line is possible, but not very probable.

That’s it. Until next time. th

Over the weekend and 3 things kept rattling around in my awareness.

  • Does Social Networking really work?
  • Being a Guest on The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch
  • Is The Blogosphere a business tool for the average business owner?

I didn’t make any connection between the three but I knew it was there. I quieted my mind and did my Business Intuition Thing for myself and there it was in plane sight. To be a guest on The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch use social networking and the blogosphere and see how long it takes.

And along the way, document my process on my blogs. I will document if Social Networking sites really work or if they are a phenomenal waste of time for the typical business professional.

I know that blogging works for SEO (Search Engine Optimization). If you Google “Terry Hall” and my website AskTerryHall.com shows up 5th position as of today. On Yahoo, my website TerrySHall.com is 22 from my blog articles. (FYI there is a British Rock Star named Terry Hall that gets a ton of press and has a dedicated fan following)

So this is a test to sort out the hype and how much work is involved to get a real result.

My Pitch to Donny’s Team:
The fastest way to a “Big Idea” is your Intuition. Once you have The Big Idea, using your intuition will guide you to the fastest most effective way to get the results that you want. The problem is that most people are too tired, too busy or too broke to listen to their intuition. I fill in as their Director of
Prophecy while the develop confidence in their own business intuition.

To see how this works have someone on your staff set up an intuitive consultation with me. My phone number is 888-481-3842 and my Yahoo IM is AskTerryHall. I’m waiting for your call. ;-)
