12 - Freemium Is The Way To Go When You Have No Funds (BONUS Ep 12)

In this episode Keith Keller talks about his favorite resource to stay focused 

www.FocusatWill.com

Laura: Hey Keith, do you have a productivity hack that you can share with us that helps keep you on track every day?

Keith: I tell you, this is an amazing site. This is an amazing site. It works on the freemium model. The freemium model gives you a little bit of a taste for free each time either separately or for 30 days. Then you can buy if you want.

This site is called www.FocusAtWill.com. This is one of the coolest sites on the internet. What it does is it simply has a series of really, really cool music styles that help you focus. Just there’s a whole channel of chill music. There’s a whole channel of classical music. There’s a whole channel of jazz, whatever you prefer.

It’s unbelievable, www.FocusAtWill.com. Now the way it works is you can get an hour every day for free forever, just so you can test it. That’s the freemium part. Then if you really dig it, it’s only $4.95 a month and you can listen to it all day every day.

Laura: That is awesome. It’s interesting that you bring that up because I just read a study that had been conducted about the effects of focused music on productivity and that one of the best things that you can do is create playlists that are, as an example, like 25 minutes long, which goes in line with the Pomodoro Technique, so that that way you have concentrated music.

You’ve got 25-minute blocks that coincide with your playlist and you can keep yourself on target and on task without being distracted.

When the music stops, you know that you can make phone calls or do whatever the case may be. But it helps you stay focused and on target during that time.

Keith: Well, the thing I love about – it’s so true. I hadn’t heard the idea of the 25 minutes, but what this does – and you’ve got to try it. It’s really the coolest site on the internet. What it does is it starts with a little bell to let you know that the music has started and that you’re on.

Then after an hour, it gives you a little bell. Hello, you’ve been on an hour. Time for a break. Go and have a glass of water or walk around the house or again, get your latte at the beach. You’ve done an hour. Good on you. Time for a rest.

So it almost – it’s like it’s teasing you to say, “I’m your buddy. I’m here to help you focus. You need to rest. Get up and massage your neck or walk around the house or just check the litter box, something. Get out of that seat.”

It’s a great site and it is quite literally a productivity hack because what it does is it helps my mind which is furious. That’s the right word. It actually centers it and goes, “OK. For one hour, I’m just going to do this.”

There’s a little music in the background and the bell goes and I get up and I make a cup of tea. Then I’m off again. Bloody brilliant. Don’t you think that’s brilliant?

Laura: Yeah, it’s perfect. So that was www.FocusAtWill.com, correct?

Keith: Yeah.

How to Make Twitter Work For Your Business. 

Part 1 of an interview with Paperli With Liz Wilson in Switzerland.


"HOW TO" Make Twitter Work For Your Business

CRACK THE TWITTER CODE & “GO GLOBAL”  Part 2 of the interview with Paperli With Liz Wilson in Switzerland. 

(1) Sharing Is Better Than Chocolate 


In the social media space and in Twitter in particular, you really need to get your head around this idea of sharing first and being a resource for others. This is very, very important if you want to gain the trust of your tribe, your followers. So you really need to understand that social media, that Twitter in particular, is about sharing. Sharing first then building trust then moving it forward.

(2) The 80-20 Rule


It’s not all about you. In part 1, we talked about the importance of sharing and now I’d like to share with you a bit of a formula for that, the 80-20 rule. So if you tweet five times a day or once a day, five days a week, I’d like you to explore the idea of tweeting four out of five times for your tribe, for others and only one time out of five about you. No one really cares what you’re doing today and no one wants to get your spamming messages all the time. So remember, the 80-20 rule. It’s not all about you.

(3) Connecting With People That You Don’t YET Know


This is a very, very important paradigm to get because if you think that Twitter and Facebook and these types of things are for meeting people that you know already that you went to school with 20 years ago, then don’t use it for business, use it for fun. I teach you to tweet for business. If you want to get traction in the Twitter-verse, I really want you to open up to the idea that there are seven billion beings in the world and 500 million of them are on Twitter. So social media is for meeting people that you don’t yet know.

(4) Be Authentic – Find Your Niche


This is especially important in Twitter. In Twitter, you can use power words, we call them hash tags to magnify, to magnetize, to gravitate towards your followers. People will gravitate towards certain keywords and the best way to start really honing in on those words is to focus. Focus on your target market, be authentic to who you are, and really speak to the people that you want to follow you. Be authentic and find your niche.

(5) Automation Tools Can Save You Time


Now, this is a very contentious issue, but I do believe the most beneficial part of using Twitter. You can schedule your tweets ahead of time. Now, that might sound counterintuitive and if it does, just remember that if you don’t do this, you are doomed to tweet in real time as long as you use Twitter. Now if you can cope with that, that’s fine, that’s beautiful, and that’s probably preferable, but it’s not possible in a busy life.

So there are several really great scheduling tools that allow you to schedule your tweets throughout the day so that you can go and work and pick up the kids and cook the meal and do all the things that we do as human beings. You can use your tweets to maximize your reach and maximize your potential.
