Money Making Secrets!
Money Making Secrets!
Find out how I made it to the top ten worldwide leader board!
I have been trying to figure out for months how to earn on FanBox and I want to share all the
things I have learned. I did not earn that much money right away. This has been a slow climb and
not always upward. There were many times where I barely made anything....just pennies for weeks. I
never gave up. Persistence is important. These are all things I have done and continue to do. I
want to share, so everyone can learn to make money on here because it is very possible. So here
are my tips for success, so you make $$$$$.......
1. Make posts, read and comment on others posts!
If you are new to FanBox or are wondering what to do this is where you should start. Just start
posting. Create blogs that interest you and that you think might interest others. We all have
different taste, so more than likely your post will be interesting to someone. Make the
post...keep an eye on it and check to see if others comment. If you get comments always respond to
the comments. This helps because you will make friends and your post will go through the feed
again, so it has another opportunity to be seen. If you don't receive a comment make one, so your
post will be seen in the feed again.
2. You need fans!
You need fans because they are the ones who will see your posts, read them and make comments. The
more fans you have the better the chance someone will see your post and want to read it. Fan
people!!! Fan everyone!!! Fan someone when you read their post and whenever you see you are not a
fan of someone. If they comment on a post you have made see if you are their fan. As you look at
the news feed and read blogs fan those people too. It's only a matter of time before you have
hundreds of fans. Fanbox also gives you fans which is a great bonus!
3. Experiment with Ads!
I have made many ads so far and most of them didn't work so well for me in the beginning as far as
bringing me a lot of money. Make an ad for every post as you now have the opportunity for a
knowledge investor to fund it. As of now we can't track our ads performance, but we will have that
ability in the future, so it's a bit of a guessing game. My advice if you don't know what to fund
is fund one ad at a time to see which one you earn from and that will give you an idea of what ads
to fund. You You can also gain exposure to new fans. You can also run ads for other peoples posts
and set them for a knowledge investor to fund!
Make sure you have relevant tags for your ad. When you create an ad for the first time the system
doesn't know if that post is popular or not, so it will show your ad a lot. Once it learns if your
ad gets clicks or not it will determine if it should continue to show impressions or serve your
ad. So, if you aren't earning from your ads it's because they aren't getting clicks and then they
don't get shown...the more popular ads get shown first and the unpopular ones get buried. So you
have a chance in the beggining to make a good impression if you create good work!
4. Tags are important!
Always fill in all of your 6 tags/search terms. If you don't it's a MISSED opportunity. Tags are
important because they match your post to users with those interests. If you don't it's a missed
opportunity as your post will reach fewer users within the site. Make sure your tags relate to the
content of your post because now people can rate your post. If your tags do not relate to your
post you can be rated poorly and your post will be pushed down in a search.
5. Place the dollar sign correctly!
Place the dollar sign after the first few sentences of your post. The dollar sign is where the
Read More goes and you only make money after people click the read more to get to your post.
6. Be patient and consistent!
I have been on here for months and have only just started to gain some momentum. It does not
always happen overnight. I have also put time into this every day. I am on here every day either
making a post or reading and commenting. Be respectful of others and create a presence. You may
have days or weeks when you feel like you have not been earning, but don't give up!
7. Read everything FanBox!
Read every post you see about how people are making money on FanBox. Most people are very willing
to share what they have learned with you. Many of the people on the leader board have very
informative blogs about what they have done to make money.There are no tricks or secrets. It takes
hard work and some creativity.
8. Ad links to your posts!
Another way to earn money is by making sure you have a link in your post. You can link your post
to another post and continue to earn money while the reader is looking at the other post.
9. Rate & Categorize:
You can also rate and categorize other peoples posts to earn ad credits! This is a great way to
accumulate some funds to promote your own ads. You can also ad tags if the post has less than 6
tags. This activity increases your 'CAR' score the most. The system remembers you and how you
rate, so be objective to gradually increase your score. If you have no money this is a great way
to gain some then you can fund your own ads and make more money! Got it!! ;)
10. Investing
The investing feature has only been available to us for a couple of weeks. I have been investing
and diversifying my investments and seem to make a nice return. Sometimes I let Fanbox decide the
return and investment and sometimes I select a minimum return usually within the parameters they
give me and I select a variety of people, interests and charities to invest in. This is how I got
in the top 10 on the leader board worldwide! This has helped me make largest earnings I have ever
made on the site! If you are unsure what to do you can set FanBox to control your return and your
investment.
11. Comments
Always respond to people when they comment on your post. First, you want to respond to any
question they may have or just show them you appreciate them spending time on your post. After you
initially make a post it will go through the feed right away if you have no pictures, and it will
take longer if you do have photos. After you are sure it has gone through the feed once make a
comment on your post and it will go through the feed again. Check your posts and respond or make
your own comment because this will help your post be seen. Each time you comment or someone else
does it goes through the news feed again for everyone to see. Especially if you are just starting
out and you don't have much money to promote your posts through ads.
12. Building Community
The more you read and comment on other posts you will start to make friends. Fanbox is a community
of people that support each other and we want everyone to succeed. People are very helpful on this
site and are always willing to answer questions, so just ask!
13. Teacher
If you are new to the site you have two weeks to select a 'teacher' to help you navigate the site.
If someone invited you to the site go to their home page and on the bottom left side you can
select them as your teacher. You only have two weeks to after you create an account to do this.
Don't worry if you missed that opportunity.....
14. Success Coaching
Fanbox is so interested in seeing people succeed that they have created a program called 'Success
Coach.' When you create an ad you have a chance at getting a success coach. A coach can help you
navigate your way through the site and provide support and encouragement for. Your coach will
answer any questions you have about the site and give you suggestions to improve. Your coach is
there to help you be successful, so take advantage as this is a great opportunity! Interested in
becoming a coach? If you are in the top 25 on the leaderboard in any of the various areas for
earning you have the chance to be nominated to be a coach! Take a look at the full leader board
and on the right side above the board you can use the drop down menus to view the top 25 earners
in the various areas.
Important Tip:
The system remembers you, so the better you get at rating and categoring, earning from others
reading your posts, earning with ads etc you will actually notice your earnings will go up! This
is because of the algorithms. :)
These are all the things I have done and still do to maximize my profits from my posts. If you are
new on FanBox I hope you find this guide helpful and if you are not so new I hope you are doing
all of these things or will start to!
8 Content Marketing Mistakes to Avoid
8 Content Marketing Mistakes to Avoid
Executive Summary
Only a handful of marketers can hit a home run every time they step
up to bat. Let’s face it, we’ve all had our share of flops. But failures
can be learning experiences; a mistake or misstep can provide
insight into what to avoid in the future. Heinz Marketing’s Matt Heinz
suggests that you not “overthink your content marketing strategy. It’s
more important to have a bias for action and get rolling.” In this online
discussion, Matt gets things rolling by sharing some content marketing
“gotchas” to avoid, and he’s in good company, with input from
Marketing Interactions’ Ardath Albee, Babcock & Jenkins’ Carmen
Hill, The Funnelholic’s Craig Rosenberg, and The Sales Lion’s Marcus
Sheridan. This list of “don’ts” can help you avoid some of the more
common content marketing mistakes these experts have seen (and
perhaps even made themselves!).
Checklist
1. Don’t neglect to do the groundwork.
2. Don’t focus on yourself—focus on the buyer instead.
3. Don’t pitch your product at every stage.
4. Don’t overlook calls to action.
5. Don’t forget that effective content marketing is a two-way
street.
6. Don’t produce content that lacks substance.
7. Don’t treat content marketing as an afterthought.
8. Don’t underestimate the power of various formats.
8 Content Marketing Mistakes to Avoid
1. Don’t neglect to do the groundwork. Before you start any
marketing activity (no matter how strategic or tactical), you
have to know why you’re doing it. What does success look
like? How does this activity translate to immediate or eventual
sales and revenue? (Heinz)
I think the biggest mistake is not doing the foundational, big-
picture work. You have to know whom you’re talking to, what
they need and want to know, and where their interests intersect
with yours. All the other mistakes we make emanate from that
void. (Hill)
2. Don’t focus on yourself—focus on the buyer instead.
I’d argue that marketers who do not build buyer insights
or develop personas will forever revert to content oriented
that’s around products, because that’s what they know best.
Focusing on buyers is a shift to skill sets that takes applied
effort. (Albee)
Think like the end user, not like a business owner. Too many
business owners and marketers are writing more for “their”
way of seeing the world. They talk too much about themselves;
I always like to say it’s a blog, not a brag. Great content
marketing is about education. It’s about teaching. And it’s
about good old-fashioned communication. To be great at
content marketing, the focus has to be about the reader, and
not the company/writer. (Sheridan)
Try as we might, we tend to see things through the lens of our
company, our product, our need to get a bunch of leads in the
pipeline by the end of the quarter, etc. Nobody else cares that
much about us. Our content needs a lot less “we” and a lot
more “you.” (Hill).
3. Don’t pitch your product at every stage. Content
marketers can be overly sales-y at inappropriate times.
Whitepapers and datasheets have their place at the right
point in the sales cycle. In the meantime, give the people
what they want: interesting content that makes their life
better. (Rosenberg)
Too many content programs focus on new features, chestbeating
on company milestones, and otherwise weaving
strong product tie-ins into every new piece of content
created. That content has its place, but your readers
(customers and prospects) will gravitate toward content that
independently provides value. What are your customer’s
issues? What do they need help with, right now? That’s the
content that will spread like wildfire for you. (Heinz)
4. Don’t overlook calls to action. Every content asset should
have a call to action. This does not mean “have a sales rep
call me” (unless this is late stage). It means providing access
to the next step. What would your prospect be interested in
given the content they have just viewed? Build pathways and
tell connected stories that help to build momentum through
the pipe. (Albee)
5. Don’t forget that effective content marketing is a twoway
street. Creating content isn’t enough. To really
accelerate your audience and impact, you must devote time
to responding, commenting, engaging questions and so
on. If you’re just a one-way communication channel, even
with good content, your prospects will go elsewhere for the
interaction they crave. (Heinz)
6. Don’t produce content that lacks substance. Too often,
we focus on platforms, channels and formats, rather than the
substance of the information and the story it supports. At this
year’s SXSW, Audrey Gray of American Express advised that we
put our energy into what we’re making rather than the platform:
“Create content that makes you feel smarter, celebrates human
artistry, or that has with real-world value.” (Hill)
They are afraid to produce gutsy content that actually gives an
opinion. We have too many boring blogs living in the world of
gray, with not enough black-and-white. (Sheridan)
7. Don’t treat content marketing as an afterthought. Content
marketing is not a bolt-on to other marketing efforts. Content
marketing is a practice that integrates all of your content-driven
initiative into a consistent and holistic experience for your
target markets. Or it should be. I see it implemented as an
also-ran with webinars, white paper efforts and social media
run separately. This creates a fragmented experience for your
audience. Content marketing is at its best when it’s used to
pull everything together so that an experience in one channel
makes sense or adds value when the audience switches to
another channel. This is one reason why editorial calendars are
so important. (Albee)
They aren’t relentless in their pursuit of producing great content.
In other words, it’s not a culture of the company, it’s a “If we have
time to write a blog post, let’s try to get it done...” (Sheridan)
8. Don’t underestimate the power of various formats.
Written content may be the core of your content strategy, but
don’t forget video. Or podcasts. Or short, embedded slide
presentations. Or whatever other formats your audience
naturally gravitates toward. (Heinz)
Content is an asset. Using it once and then relegating it to
a resource list page on the corporate website is a shame.
Marketers will benefit tremendously by embracing the Rule of
5. This means that for every piece of content developed, there
should be 5 uses, applications or reinvention options for a
content asset. Turn a webinar into a white paper. Then break
the white paper into a series of articles and blog posts and
connect them via hyperlinks. Take one topic and develop 5
different angles to approach it, creating 5 different formats of
content. (Albee)
In Closing
Good content marketing is an on-going
commitment, not a one-time investment. If
you focus on eliminating these “don’ts” from
your work, you can hit a home run with every
campaign. You will find that quality content
builds upon itself, delivering consistent longterm
engagement and creating brand loyalty
within your customer base.

20 Weird Superstitions
20 Weird Superstitions:
1. Number 13 :
It’s just a number. Yet, people tweak on Friday the 13th. Many airports don’t have a gate #13. (Instead they have 12-A) Many hotels don’t have a floor #13.
I was always told that the superstition is based on the idea that Judas, the bad disciple, was the 13th man to sit down to the table at The Last Supper. I think a more rational superstition would be to fear bad disciples.
2. An acorn at the window will keep lightning out.
3.Spit on a new bat before using it for the first time to make it lucky.
Gross. Gross. Gross. In the spring of 2009, in fear of the Swine Flu, high schools all over the country forbade their athletes from shaking hands after the game. Pretty sure “not spitting on the bat” was implied.
And speaking in terms of basic physics, having a lubricated bat makes for less friction, and therefore, slippery balls … okay, now I’m just out of control.
4.In order to write this article, I had to get a Ph.D. in butterflies
The early appearance of butterflies indicates fair weather.
If the first butterfly is yellow, it will be sunny weather.
If the first butterfly is white, it will be rainy summer.
If the first butterfly is white, someone will die.
If the first butterfly is red, you will be healthy.
If the first butterfly is dark, it means thunderstorms.
If the first butterfly is yellow, someone is going to give birth.
If you capture a butterfly, you will be struck dead.
If you see a butterfly at night, you will die.
There! Simple, right?
5. A cat onboard a ship is considered to bring luck.
I used to live on a ship. A cat would have been a real drag. All of those spaces to hide in, poop in, pee in? All of that machinery to get torn to pieces in? And who exactly would have been in charge of cleaning the litter boxes? Litter boxes are never lucky.
6. If three people are photographed together, the one in the middle will die first.
I can’t rationalize it, but this one just gives me the shivers.
7. If you stick your hands in your pocket while walking past a graveyard, it will protect your parents.
Makes me wonder what happens if I turn my pockets inside out. Or, take off my pants and wave my arms around
8. Never take a broom along when you move. It is bad luck. Throw it out and buy a new one.
Isn’t that common sense? A used broom is kind of a nasty thing to box up with the linens. Like packing up used trash cans. A new broom costs like two dollars.
9. If a candle blows out, evil spirits are nearby.
Or, there’s a draft.
10. It is bad luck to light three cigarettes with the same match.
Yeah it is. And that bad luck is called cancer.
11. Evil spirits can’t harm you when you stand inside a circle.
Oh, that explains all those people walking up and down the street wearing hula hoops.
12. It’s bad luck to pick up a coin if it’s tails side up. Good luck comes if it’s heads up.
In this economy, a little bad luck is worth the nickel.
13. - Oops or should i have called this one 12-A A cricket in the house brings good luck. It will also bring cricket poop.
14. If the palm of your right hand itches, it means you will soon be getting money.
If the palm of your left hand itches, it means you will soon be paying out money.
the palm of either of your hands is itching, you might want to get that checked.
15. A knife as a gift from a lover means that the love will soon end.
Who gives their lover a knife for a gift? What happened to roses or chocolate? Creepy!
and
A knife placed under the bed during childbirth will ease the pain of labor.
If I were the impregnator, I would be very nervous.
16. Salty soup is a sign that the cook is in love.
Check the sodium content on any can in any grocery store and feel good about how much love there is in the world
17. Three seagulls flying together, directly overhead, are a warning of death soon to come.
Or poop on your head.
18. Place a hand in front of your mouth when sneezing so that your soul cannot escape.
Now they tell us to sneeze into our armpits. I’ve got to feel sorry for any soul that gets sneezed into an armpit.
19. The number of Xs in the palm of your right hand is the number of children you will have.
I counted. I will have 47 children.
20. A new bride must be carried over the threshold because it’s bad luck if she falls.
I always thought it was because she was hammered from the reception.

I’m excited about helping you succeed! I’ve already been helping others succeed and I’m 100% sure that you can succeed too.
I’d also like to get to know you; what you’re all about; and what level of success you’re looking to achieve.
Please tell me a little bit about yourself and, if you become very successful, what you would do with your earnings. For example, would you help other people? Are there things that you want, personally? Would you invest it? Would you give it away?

HERE'S A STEP TO TAKE NEXT:
5 Step Never-Fail FanBox Earning Plan
Print this out or write it down and keep it handy.
As a Success Coach, when I meet someone for the first time, they already have a blog and have run at least one ad.
But often they don't realize what they need to do to earn.
I have a very simple 5-step plan that if you follow it for 7 days, you will earn money - guaranteed.
Try to do the steps in 7 days, but if you need 10, 20 or a whole month - that's fine too.
Just understand your results will be slower, but you will earn.
Just don't stop once you start.
By the first time you have completed the steps, you will have made a profit on FanBox.
You can do this.
1. Categorize and rate at least 10 posts a day to earn ad credits.
The more you rate, the more you will earn as the system learns how accurate you are.
Remember you aren't saying how much you liked the post, you are rating how well the post presents the information. On a scale of 1-10 how much would you rely on this post for information about [tag].
Feel free to add tags if you can think of a better tag to describe the post.
2. Write 1 good blog post and put up one good ad a day.
If you feel motivated to do more, do it. Just keep it enjoyable for yourself.
You get paid for the time people spend enjoying your posts, give them a reason to stay and read them.
If you aren't entirely sure what a good blog post or good ad is please just write me, I'm here to help you.
3. Put up an ad with every single post you do.
Use Knowledge Investor to fund those ads until you start accumulating ad credits to fund your own ads.
I recommend building up to at least $20 in ad credits.
4. Use Investor anywhere from $1-$10 at least once during those 7 days.
Investor works by spending the portfolios of people who ask for the least % returns FIRST.
Remember whatever the ending portfolio is will be the return % you get too.
So, if you asked for a 5% return but the Investor Module ended the day at a portfolio asking 25% - you get 25%.
If you live outside the United States, ask for a minimum of 25% return to cover exchange rates and any money transfer fees.
Remember, you're not buying stocks, you're funding ads here on FanBox.
It's a win=win because you're buying advertising and others are benefiting as well.
The idea here is to get your money working for you as quickly as possible if you want to invest more, by all means do so.
5. Become a Teacher and get at least one student.
If you have friends that want to be a part of FanBox, they can join and they have two weeks to choose a Teacher.
They can choose anyone they want - including YOU.
You will earn 10% of what they earn the first 6 months they are on FanBox.
Your earnings do NOT come out of their earnings. It costs them nothing.
Then, for the next 6 months (months 7-12 of their FanBox usership) you will earn 6% of what they earn.
After a year (months 13 and onwards), you earn 3% FOREVER!
When you become a teacher, give your students this 5 point plan and kick start their earnings on FanBox!
Once you've done the steps and seen your profit, do the steps again and repeat the increase in your earnings on FanBox.

Weight and Depression: 9 Must-Know Facts

The Food-Mood Connection
Changes in mood can have unpredictable effects onyour diet. When feeling down, you might lose your appetite -- or become ravenous and overeat. The same is true for bouts of happiness: Not thinking about food or “happy eating” both can occur. Why? Brain biology and behavioral cues control both mood regulation and hunger signals. And because the same brain signaling that moderates mood also regulates hunger and fullness signals, people often notice that changes in mood also result in changes in food intake -- either eating more or less.
Depression and Weight Gain
Daily life is filled with ups and downs that can trigger short-term bouts of the blues. But sustained feelings of sadness, hopelessness or anxiety that do not go away and interfere with daily activities are a red flag to seek help. Depression can lead to changes in appetite, sleep patterns and sexual interest, and many people find they’re overeating and sleeping more -- leading to significant weight gain. However, many other depressed people lose their appetite and can’t sleep, leading to significant weight loss.
Loss of Appetite and Insomnia
Significant changes in eating and sleep patterns are symptoms of major depression, and are often linked. This is not surprising, since a common brain circuitry regulates both. The most commonly seen symptom of clinical depression is loss of appetite, resulting in weight loss. Depressed people often report a loss of appetite and interest in food, along with diminished enjoyment in eating. This is paired with insomnia, the inability to fall asleep. Some people can fall asleep but can’t remain asleep, awakening throughout the night with fitful sleep, or rising after only a few hours.
Eaters and Sleepers
Although most people who are depressed report loss of appetite and insomnia, an increasing number suffer from overeating (and weight gain), accompanied by excessive amounts of sleep. During depression, hunger signals can also be enhanced, and people often choose unhealthy “comfort foods,” like cookies, chips and pizza, to feel better. These high-calorie foods usually replace fruits and vegetables, and can pack on the pounds. Depressed people can also experience overwhelming fatigue, leading to extra hours of sleep at night, but without a sense of feeling rested, refreshed and alert.
Getting Help: Biology and Behavior Treatments
Depression is a medical illness with a two-pronged approach to treatment: talk therapy, medications or a combination of the two. This approach can bring about changes in brain chemistry, which lead to changes in mood. Getting your depression in check can help you focus on making lifestyle changes in eating, activity and stress management that will allow you to control your weight.
Medications That Promote Weight Gain
One of the major barriers to successful treatment of depression with medication is the well-known side effect of weight gain -- in fact, it’s the main reason people stop taking their meds. Many of the older medications that effectively resolve depression promote significant weight gain by both stimulating appetite and reducing metabolic rate, but newer generations of medications have a more focused effect on the brain and can stabilize mood without causing notable changes in appetite and metabolism for the vast majority of people. Being a mindful eater and staying physically active can help you offset any potential weight-related side effects. It’s important to discuss this aspect of treatment with your doctor -- before your medication trial begins.
Weight Loss During Medication Treatment
There is good news about weight loss during medication treatment: It’s not any harder to drop those pounds while on antidepressants. And if you’ve gained weight during your depressive episode, those pounds aren’t any more resistant to removal than those gained before. If feeling better during treatment restores your appetite, remember the foundation of weight control: Focus on lean protein and fruits and vegetables, and be active for at least 30 minutes daily. As with all weight-loss plans, it’s important to set realistic short- and long-term goals. The bonus is that the boost in mood supports your mental focus and determination, helping to keep you on track.
When to Switch Meds
Individual responses to different antidepressants can vary greatly. When starting a new antidepressant, it’s important to pay attention to both your change in mood and any effects on appetite. Even a medicine that’s not routinely associated with weight gain might stimulate your hunger. If you do notice a change, don’t stop the medication, but call your doctor to make a change. There are many categories of medication that resolve depression without unwanted weight gain. Medication that’s going to cause a change in weight will do so when it’s new to your body, so if you start gaining weight months (or years) after starting an antidepressant, it’s likely not that drug. Start with an honest talk with your doctor to discuss the best medical and lifestyle plan.
