Building a Community to Market Yourself as a Leader

It’s so important to be seen as a leader in your niche if you want to market your business better. This helps your sales because people want to buy from leaders. They want to buy from those they know are influential and experienced. It’s also helpful for your branding. If people know you’re a leader, they’re going to look up to you. They’re going to come to you first for new ideas.

So, the question is, how do you become seen as a leader? There are many different avenues you can take to make this happen. But the way I did it is perhaps the easiest route. I became the leader of a community.

It all started with my 5 Bucks a Day book. This book changed my life and the lives of many others. It was all about my method of focusing on a project that would earn me five dollars a day recurring income at a time and stacking that project with subsequent “five buck a day” projects, essentially achieving a full time income in bite-sized pieces.

Joining Google+ Communities

Hopefully, from part 1 of this discussion, you’re starting to get a feel for how Google+ works. You can join other communities so you can get a real feel for them before you create your own. It’s best if you join one or more in the niche you are considering creating your community about.

I’ll assume you’ve already created your own Google+ profile, but if you have not, go ahead and do that now. Then, go to the upper left-hand corner of your Google+ profile. Find the communities box and click on it. A search box should appear where you can search for keywords related to your niche. Click through the one or ones you want to join.

You can go ahead and start to interact to get a feel for how it works. You never know – you might meet lifelong friends and business partners in these communities. It’s always important to network and meet others.

All About Google+ and Google Hangouts

Why Google+?

Google+ is excellent for social marketing these days. When most marketers think of Google, they think of SEO. Well, those days are gone—these days, Google is all about community and interaction. Google is a company you want to cozy up to if you want a huge market reach and a surefire social marketing campaign.

There’s definitely more than one benefit to paying attention to Google+. You’re not just forming a community on one platform. You’re also taking advantage of Google+ as a social network, Google+ as a community platform, your YouTube channel, and Hangouts. You’re really killing FOUR birds with one stone when you sign up for Google+. Google’s made it so that all of these things are integrated—you really can’t help but go for them all if you so much as sign up for something like a Gmail account these days.

Not only that, but Google+ communities are easy, free, and fun. There are many opportunities to tie your Google+ interactions with your other business ventures. You can even make it so that your Google+ community is free or paid. In this case, and for maximum growth and maximum exposure, I’m going to assume that your focus is on free for now. Though, I have seen some successful paid Google+ communities and events as well. People happily pay for them and get a lot of value out of them as well.
