Tribe Internet Organization 101

images

Organizing is what you do before you do something,
so that when you do it, it’s not all mixed up.
(A.A. Milne, English author and creator of Winnie-the-Pooh)

Are you a Tribe Internet Marketer?

Do you find yourself going to bed at night thinking to yourself “Did I leave someone out, did I get all my retweets in today?”

As your tribe grows, you may find it increasingly more difficult to keep up with who is done and who isn’t. I spent a lot of time looking for a system, trying to put together something myself, but it just wasn’t coming together.

Then I thought about a great program that I was already using called Social Oomph The whole concept started off slowly, but as I started getting in the grove every morning, it got easier and easier to stay organized. I know there’s a lot more that can be done with this program, and I’m looking into that right now, but for now, this is a start.

As I learn more stuff I’ll add more videos to this page, but for right now, watch this video and start to get yourself organized. If you enjoy it, please retweet it and comment below.

Enjoy!

    On my list of things to by this weekend is to get social oomph set up, so this is just what I needed to see right now!

    I can see from your tutorial how powerful this tool is, and I really appreciate all the tips! Thanks so much, Debbie!

    Debbie,

    This is a great tip. We all know that organization can be one of our biggest challenges.

    What I’m wondering about this strategy is…when you’re retweeting someone’s blog post through SocialOomph, does the retweet button on their blog update? If not, do you recommend retweeting through each person’s blog first, so their tweetmeme numbers will increase?

    Thanks…

    No it doesn’t Kathy, and that’s a good point. I ALWAYS visit the blogs too and either retweet or comment so something is left there also. It’s just more of an easy way to get them all done at one time if you’re in a hurry, rather than going to each individual blog, when you can do it later when you have more time.

    Great point! Thanks for mentioning that!

    Hey Debbie
    This is a great training that you put together. I know that for me, Social Oomph has been a great tool to use and has really helped me to keep things organized. I also like the fact that once you set it up, you know that it’s good and you do not have to worry about the Tweets or whatever you are doing.
    Talk later.

    Hi Debbie,

    I like your relaxed tone in the video because it helps us to learn too! Your post reminded me that I have not used Social Oomph since they changed the name so a return visit from me is well overdue. Thank you.

    Debbie –

    I have used socialoomph on occasion, but never really connected it with “tribing”. You have got my mind running.

    I also like Onlywire for simplifying things for our tribe. They have a plug-in for firefox that makes things easy. We can go to our tribemates’ pages and click on an Onlywire Icon in the upper right corner and distribute their content to FB, twitter and a couple of dozen other social and bookmarking sites – all with a single click!

    It is a big timesaver…

    Take care. I look forward to your next post!

  12. Hi Debbie!

    This is such a helpful post! I have been using SocialOomph, but not in this way. Great idea! I know exactly what you mean! I always worry that I left someone out. Now I can double check with having to hunt down the post.

    Clever girl!

  13. Hi Debbie,
    I love your site, I have been meaning to drop by for quite awhile now..your video post is quite timely.

    I find that like many I could use 48 hours in a day and your tip about Social Oomph makes perfect sense. I am part of your tribe from Facebook and didn’t even realize it until I took a look a Dave Cook’s spreadsheet…hopefully I can now get more organized and spend the time to get to know this great group of people.

    Glad to have finally stopped in…cheers

  24. Hey Debbie,
    Thanks for sharing about Social Oomph. I have many friends who use this tool as well. Personally, I use HootSuite…it’s kind of a cross between Social Oomph and Tweet Deck. I find it very helpful in organizing my tribe activities.

  25. Awesome. As an artist whose mission is helping artists get online to get noticed, I really, really reccomend Social Oomph. I’ll keep your video in mind when giving suggestions. I just taught a Twitter workshop on how valuable it can be, so I’m pleased to see you offering this great information online where it can really help a lot of people.

  31. Great idea. There are a couple of site that you can use to set up your syndications and tweets but it always helps to see a video on them. I currently just I-Google to keep up with the blogs I like, but it does not give me the option to post my syndications. Thanks for sharing this.
