Think about how and why you search, many of us will be on Facebook or other social media sites, leave for a few minutes to do a Google search for a local restaurant, cafe or other information then head straight back to check on the latest Facebook update from our friends and family. Well imagine you no longer have to do that, you can do all your searches without the need to leave Facebook, sounds good right? This is the reality of the new launch of Facebook Graph search will allow you to do targeted search on friends or non friends and get &#8220;real&#8221; reviews on your favourite products and services or do research on upcoming purchases. See example below of &#8220;Mexican Restaurants my friends go to&#8221;<br /><br /><a href="http://www.publicitymonster.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Screenshot-180213-1010-AM.jpeg"><img src="http://www.publicitymonster.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Screenshot-180213-1010-AM-300x200.jpeg" alt="best mexican restaurant using Facebook Graph Search" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4260" height="200" width="300" /></a> <br /><br />So is this the end for Google search? We don&#8217;t think so, but being where your customers are is about making sure you get the best return on your marketing dollar. <br /><br /><a href="http://facebook.com">Facebook</a> Graph Search is not yet available to everyone but we&#8217;ve had the opportunity to use it and it&#8217;s great, it&#8217;s user friendly and the results are fantastic.

How It Can Supercharge Your Network Marketing Business.</p><p>The post <a href="http://www.publicitymonster.com.au/2012/09/17/review-about-netmlmprofits-ebook-for-your-network-marketing-business-opportunities/">Review About NetMLMProfits eBook For Your Network Marketing Business Opportunities</a> appeared first on <a href="http://www.publicitymonster.com.au">PublicityMonster</a>.</p>]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[This review about NetMLMProfits eBook for your network marketing business opportunities that I am going to do has an objective. And that is to share with you what I have learn from this new found resource that was recommended by my mentor who generated $10,000 over in sales within 24 hours.

Before I dwell on to what I have found useful in this guide, I think that there is a need and with all due respect to introduce to you the author of NetMLMProfits ebook.

He is non other then <strong>&#8220;The King Of Never Calling A Single Lead&#8221; Daegan Smith.</strong>

<strong>From EzinesArticles.com, the resource box that Daegan uses, this is how he is being described:</strong>

&#8220;Daegan Smith is an expert Internet Network Marketer and the &#8220;King Of Never Calling A Single Lead&#8221;. If you want to grow your network marketing business at an explosive rate. He&#8217;s your man!&#8221;

Personally I have met him during one of our training session when he was flown in from USA to Singapore to conduct a training workshop for our local team. I believe he is only in his late twenties, a young man.

Now you know abit about him, let us find out what I have found useful in his NetMLMProfits ebook that I have invested a few days back.

<strong>7 Tips or should I say learnings that I got from NetMLMProfits by Daegan Smith</strong>

<strong>1. Focus all your efforts on ONE target if you really want to succeed.</strong>

This really ring a bell for me. Focus is key and if you are doing online marketing for awhile, you know that it can be a challenge.

<strong>2. Using the Internet to recruit people into my Network Marketing Business</strong>

This couldn&#8217;t be more true in this information age and the increasing power of the internet.

I was told by another mentor that, billions are using the internet and with the internet, you have an international market.

This is vital if you are looking to expand your business.

<strong>3. The 7 Myths about the MLM industry that will KILL your business if you fall victim to them</strong>

These 7 myths opened my eyes to the network marketing industry a little wider.

One of them is this: (Myth #5) Buying and calling leads is the only way to really grow a network marketing organization

I was nodding my head furiously when I read this.

You may laugh about it.

But really, when you first start your network marketing business, one of the first advice that you get is along this line:

&#8220;Come up with a list of 100 names and start calling them. Start with your warm market, your friends and family&#8230;.&#8221;

This was the exact advice I had previously!

<strong>*4. By focusing on only recruiting people I was missing out on a lot of income.</strong>

The reason why I included a * at this point is that this is new to me and I believe it may be new to you too.

Read again&#8230;

By focusing on only recruiting people I was missing out on a lot of income?

This is contradicting to me.

Until I was enlightened by Daegan in this guide that recruiting people is just 1 way and the recruitment of people gives you the passive side of income.

In the step-by-step system that he shared.

Offering a one-time ebook or teaching material that can solve your prospects agony and problems. (Front-end product)

People are more open to one-time deals because many are afraid of committing to your business.

WOW! This concept is new to me.

<strong>5. Chapter 1: The Truth About Network Marketing</strong>

Network marketing is not a get rich quick business.

And he added that:

Truthfully, it&#8217;s not your fault you probably think you can create a long term passive income quickly and easily with Network Marketing. Network marketing is built on financial hopes and dreams.

<strong>*6. How do you create a front-end profit while at the same time growing your network marketing downline?</strong>

YES! Another * point. This point is in line with Tip No. 4

The answer to the above question:

You create a front-end online profit generator that is completely in line with your business building efforts.

And Daegan in his ebook guides you step-by-step on what needs to be done.

<strong>7. since this is the last point, I like to share with you the topics of the remaining chapters so you will have a better idea what NetMLMProfits is before you decide if you want to invest in it.</strong>

<strong>Chapter 2:</strong> Essentials To Your Success

<strong>Chapter 3:</strong> Search Engine Optimizaonti: The Ultimate Secret To Internet Network Marketing Front End Profits And Free Passive Lead Generation

<strong>Chapter 4:</strong> &#8220;How To Start A Profitable Passive Lead Generating Long Term Internet Network Marketing Business.The Right Way!&#8221;

<strong>Chapter 5:</strong> The Little Known Secret to Absolutely Guarantee Your Internet Network Marketing Success.You&#8217;ve been Reading it all Along?

<strong>Chapter 6:</strong> The MOST Important Step to Gaining Internet Network Marketing Success, Using a Perfect Internet Network Marketing System!

<strong>Chapter 7:</strong> My REAL Secret to Success. Exposed!

<strong>Chapter 8:</strong> The Little Known Email MLM Success Formula That&#8217;s So Simple You&#8217;ll Kick Yourself

<strong>Chapter 9: </strong>The Simple Mechanics Of Successful Email MLM Marketing

With more extra teachings. From this it really tells me that Daegan over delivers and we will be glad that he did.

Big changes for Google Places this week with the integration into Google&#8217;s social media platform Google+ to create the all new <a href="http://plus.google.com/local">Google+ Local</a>. We find it be a lot similar to how you can check into a business via Places on Facebook, leave comments, share with friends but you can now do this by logging into your Gmail account and using Google+. This is obviously a big push from Google to get more people to use their platform and get businesses more involved with Google+, we also understand by Google making this integration, Google Places will see a lot more features introduced in the near future.

We really like the new layout, it&#8217;s simple and gives you all the information you need at a glance. We also like that there&#8217;s a lot more information about the users who&#8217;s leaving the feedback and this gives you a clearer indication of where else this person has visited and what else they&#8217;ve commented on.

<a href="http://plus.google.com/local">Google+ Local</a> drops the old star rating system for the Zagat review system , better known in the US for decades for their restaurant reviews.

The rating system is now <strong>based on</strong> a 0 to 3 point scale.<em><strong> (see image)</strong></em>
<ul>
	<li>3 = Excellent</li>
	<li>2 = Very Good</li>
	<li>1 = Good</li>
	<li>0 Poor to Fair</li>
</ul>
These scores are then averaged by Google and the business is given a total score:
<ul>
	<li>26-30 Extraordinary to perfection</li>
	<li>21-25 Very good to excellent</li>
	<li>16-20 Good to very good</li>
	<li>10-15 Fair to good</li>
	<li>0-9 Poor to fair</li>
</ul>
<strong>Main Changes:</strong>
<ul>
	<li>No more stars, a score out of 3</li>
	<li>Businesses get a total score that is average by Google</li>
	<li>Clearer and more substantiated reviews from friends and visitors</li>
	<li>More features coming</li>
</ul>
