What are the Biggest Social Networking Mistakes that People Make?
Too Eager
One of the first things to try and realize is, especially for those with a new business, is to get in the right frame of mind. Being in the “right frame of mind” will keep you from “walking through the mud” as you start your new endeavor. Allow your business to be seen by the ones on the receiving end by first establishing a relationship. Meet them as a person and not as a business object. They will connect with you better once they get to know you.

Shadow Profile
Always make sure you have a nice picture of yourself on your profile. People want to know who they are talking too. A “blank” profile with nothing on it about who you are as a person will lead to “blank” business connections. If you would like to know who I am please visit my profile at http://sta.rtup.biz/profile/TroyWalls and read the blog that says “Who is Buddy Walls”. And do not be afraid to add me as your friend.

Respect the Rules
Any new network that you may enter please take the time to read the rules before posting. They may have a certain agenda or forum they are discussing, in other words a central topic they are trying to focus on. Do not enter in and start blasting your way through with large campaign ads. That will cause them to “click” you out quicker than anything, because they have seen ten thousand of those already. People are smarter than you might think.

Have a great week and please be sure and visit my profile page and add me as your friend!

I think the biggest mistake is not taking the time to consider the person you are contacting. I would like to try to find out something about people before deciding to I want to buy their products or services.
