Social Media

Like all buzz words, Social Media, is really nothing new. It merely is the new word encompassing blogs, podcast, video/youtube, forums, and java chats. That said, it is one of the most powerful weapons a woman owns.

Face it ladies. We are beautiful. With a little poise and artistic creativity, we can use all of these tools to our benefit. Even if we do not like the camera, the Internet is faceless. A person can become an international star without ever revealing their true self.

Thousands of bloggers with major blogs (1 million hits a year is a good foundation) are work at home, freelancers, or just stumbled on the blogsphere by accident.

Most do not know how to get started. All women have MS movie maker on their computers. It is a great tool for creating a promotional slide show. Have nothing to sell? That is wrong. You do have something to sell.

Your Image

You are an image. That image has nothing to do with your face or figure. It is not defined by the clothing you wear, or how big the rock on your finger is. That image is born inside you. Everyone has a story to tell. Everyone has a message.

At one time in history women were allowed to tell their stories. Now, the cubicle, the title secretary, housewife, or mother has silenced that voice.

Your Voice

Social media is your voice. It doesn't matter if you have something profound to say, or simple. It is something valuable. You may not realize how valuable your voice is. One of the biggest mistakes of this century is telling people that their voice is not worth hearing unless they have a university degree.

It is time to take the media back. It is time to stop letting society/media tell us what is right, what works, and who we should be. A real woman has hips. A real woman has wrinkles. And, real women are surfing the web looking for someone who 'speaks their language.'

Your Message

The message is simple. It took you decades to learn, but it is simple. A message born in your heart.

Unfortunately, many women start their journey by spouting dogma learned from politics, business, schools, or religions. What a waste. While you waste time repeating this rhetoric, the collective knowledge that women shared for centuries is fading into extinction.

Share your message. Don't worry if you get it right the first time. Don't worry if it stands up against other messages.

Social Media

Want to know how to get started? It is easy. Evolution taught humanity how to learn in a single word - play. Play with a blog, MS movie maker, youtube, and podcasts. Do not worry about quality or quantity. Take time to play.

Too many voices are silenced by fear: The fear of not sounding good enough, Not being famous, or not having something of vital importance to say.

Take the word Social out of Social Media. Social - for all society.

The world reclaimed the Internet from big corporations and changed the way the WWW operates, one voice at a time. It is time to make your voice be heard.
