A
bout once a week, I take a look at my upcoming calendar… Especially where I know I’m going to be meeting a lot of people… And think about the interesting folks attending, speaking, or near to the venue.
I’ve read about networking experts doing this, and even talk to people who make a practice of it, but rarely do I find someone this committed to excellence in everything he does.
You may have heard of Jon Acuff. He is a New York Times Best-selling author and someone I’m certainly going to look for at Infusioncon next week in Phoenix
Here is one of the posts I liked very much today.
Social Media Secret Rhythm
In a few weeks I’m headed to Phoenix, AZ to speak at ICON14. I’m doing a breakout and when I’m done I hope to take some notes from folks like Seth Godin and Simon Sinek on the main stage.
After working with Infusionsoft for the last few months it will be my first time to meet the team that’s been such a huge help to me as I figure out how to be an entrepreneur.
The title of my talk is “the secret rhythm of social media.”
The whole talk would be too long for a blog post, but I will share one of the ideas that I think drives social media.
It’s a simple word really, but I swear it took me a long time to learn.
The word is “empathy.”
In the context of social media, I define empathy as “Understanding what someone needs and acting on it.”
There’s two parts to that idea. The first is “understanding what someone needs.”
Do you know how you do that? You spend time with them.
That’s it. That’s the bottom line. I lost touch with that when I got busy and stopped connecting as much as I used to on Twitter. You can track my ability to understand how to help people with social media based in part on how often I respond to tweets. In the last 7 months I’ve tried to increase that and I feel more connected than I have at other times. There are a lot of ways to respond with social media: twitter, facebook, blog comments, instagram, linkedin, etc. For me, it’s Twitter.
The second part of social media empathy is “acting on it.” If you know what someone needs and don’t act on it, you’re using “media,” not social media. You can take and take online only so long until people figure out you don’t care about them. You’re not here for them. You’re here for you. Eventually that catches up with you.
Empathy isn’t easy.
Good things never are.
They take time and hustle.
Want to serve people with social media?
Understand what they need and act on it.

Shel Horowitz is an author, international speaker, columnist, and marketing consultant. He believes that businesses can succeed by embracing principles of honesty, integrity, and environmental responsibility.
The first of his books on marketing was published in 1985, and since then he has written several other award-winning books and hundreds of articles on marketing. His focus has been primarily on ethical, green, and frugal marketing. Stressing values-based, big-picture marketing that tends to be less expensive than traditional approaches, he develops marketing methods and materials based in such guerrilla marketing techniques as forming partnerships, attracting media publicity, and using social media effectively.
Shel was still a teenager when he started doing publicity and marketing for grassroots environmental and community organizations with zero promotional budget. There wasn’t even money available for stamps, so he hand-delivered press releases on a three-speed bicycle. Trained as a journalist, he first became aware of the power of the news media when a local paper refused to print meeting notices he wrote for a controversial group—but gave extensive news coverage to its refusal. Now, for over thirty years, he’s helped businesses, nonprofits, and community groups identify their key message and get it out to the public with little or no expenditure.
He has been quoted or cited in over 70 books, and blogs at GreenAndProfitable.com. His eighth book, Guerrilla Marketing Goes Green: Winning Strategies to Improve Your Profits and Your Planet, was #1 Environmental category bestseller on Amazon, and has made the category bestseller list at least 30 times.
Heather Vale Goss interviews filmmaker Brad Weinman and pioneer podcaster Cali Lewis in the NMX Lounge at NAB, Las Vegas, for Profitable Social Media and Performance Marketing Insider. Cali was working on her GeekBeat.TV show, and Brad was talking about his expertise, crowdfunding.
With over 30 feature films to his credit, Wyman has worked with an impressive roster of A-list talent, from Reese Witherspoon and Charlize Theron to Matthew McConaughey and Cristina Ricci. His impressive 25 year career boasts the Oscar winning MONSTER. He is now Chief Crowdfunding Officer at FundAnything.
Cali Lewis has become a household name in the tech industry and her podcasts have been viewed hundreds of millions of times over the last eight years. She’s also a noted industry commentator with regular appearances on BBC, CNN, FOX, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, Sirius, and as both a keynote speaker and panel participant at industry events.
In this fun interview, find out about some of the cool new technology that excites Cali and Brad, what got Cali into podcasting in the first place, why it’s cool to be a geek, how Brad “gets the money,” and more.

A good mood really is contagious, even on social media. According to a new study, the mood of your Facebook updates is directly influenced by the moods of those in your newsfeed. The study, which was conducted by researchers at the University of California, Yale, and Facebook, examined statuses on the popular social network with a particularly positive or negative emotional bent, as identified by algorithm.
The study, which was conducted by researchers at the University of California, Yale, and Facebook, examined statuses on the popular social network with a particularly positive or negative emotional bent, as identified by algorithm. The researchers first proved that rainy days caused fewer positive statuses and more negative ones—even when the program eliminated statuses explicitly about the weather. During a rainy day, they found, a city’s number of negative posts will increase by 1.16%, and positive ones will decrease by %1.19.
The researchers then looked at friends of the rained-in parties—but ones who lived in other cities, where the weather was fine. This group was affected by their wetter friends: For every negative post from the rainy group, dry friends posted 1.29 more negative posts than would normally be expected. Positive posts had a slightly stronger effect, inspiring 1.75 more positive posts. “Effectively this means that 1-2 people were indirectly affected,” researcher Massimo Franceschettitold Quartz.Not exactly an epidemic of goodwill, but a notable increase. “We showed,” says Franceschetti, “that social networks can actually magnify and promote social synchrony. This could mean that social networks actually make the world more volatile, because people are more prone to synchronize emotionally with peers around the world.”
Contagious emotion isn’t a new idea: “We know that emotions are contagious in a sense,” saysFranceschetti. “When you go to a restaurant and you’re greeted with a smile, this makes you feel better. It improves your experience. But isolating this network effect on such a massive scale—with the help of a huge online social network—allows us to measure the contagion more effectively.” The authors hope that knowledge of this effect will inform everything from marketing tactics to acts of good will. “The benefit of a good action can spread,” says Franceschetti. “Providing better care for the suffering could effect numerous others’ happiness as well.”
We all expect to have our opinions influenced by peers on social media, and it seems that their moods may sway us as well. If your newsfeed is full of grousers, perhaps it’s time to find new (Facebook) friends.
