Before we dive into today, let’s get a quick recap!

Beware of this – you’ll have no excuses then

Today in 1874: 1st cartoon depicting elephant as Republican Party symbol, by Thomas Nast

and
Where was I?
Ah yes, Tuesday!
Saw the doc yesterday (yay!). Doing steady-state – the epidural seems to have helped. And when I got home, there was the opportunity to go lunch with the husband… but as one of his friends was along, I decided that letting them manize during lunch made ‘way more sense.
And about viralness….
Do you remember the 100 million analyzed headlines article?
Its this thingee.
buzzsumo.com/blog/most-shared-headlines-study/
They decided to make that article go viral and showed how over at
buzzsumo.com/blog/went-viral-lessons-promoting-content-influencers-ads-pr/
Whats cool is their strategy.
They targeted 2 types of folk in FB:
publishers/their employees (paid users)
Buzzsumo users (freemium users)
They even share with you their targeted audiences!
But the journalists? Look at this:
“We sent around 20 of these short emails to various journalists, and got a lot of useful feedback and ideas, which we incorporated into our research. We shared the early findings with our influencers and sought their comments and insights. The content influencers we engaged with included Ann Handley, Michael Brenner, Andy Crestodina, Larry Kim, Robert Rose and Heidi Cohen. We included many of their comments in the final post which enriched the post and our research.
A good percentage of our engagement resulted in high-profile placements, and links. For example, we were subsequently written about in Nieman Labs, Inc. Magazine, MarketingProfs, and Forbes. These were the result of influencer/journalist outreach prior to publishing the post.”
Boom!
There’s other superb takeaways as well.
Btw, did you *know* about the free buzzsumo tool? It’s awesome and I use it bunches myself:
app.buzzsumo.com/research/most-shared
For example, here’s the most shared articles about yesterdays Amazon Prime:
app.buzzsumo.com/research/most-shared?q=Amazon%20Prime&num_days=7&page=1
Hugely useful said tool is.
Anywhos!
Your main takeaway here – if you want stuff to go viral… the more effort you put into the channel distribution, the bigger than chance it has.
Oh, and don’t forget some best headline goodies:

Enjoy!

Elsewhere in Lingland, I did get to the movies yesterday and saw the latest Thor.
It was 100% pure overTheTop silliness… loved it!
Plus….
Yesterday I goofed.
Remember that “Hate the title” email I sent?
Well, I ended up buying the product myself….
AND OMG its tremendous.
Here’s what I wrote:
“I owe an apology to Kam Fatz. When I first heard of the title of his latest product (White Trash Wealth), I immediately dismissed it from my mind.
Well, Andy Brocklehurst mentioned it on his site… so I decided to buy it and check it out. I am *so* glad I did.
In a nutshell, perhaps a cashew shell, it’s *really* good.
I mean, beyond your general “utterly grand”. We’re talking Marlon Sanders level of “grand” (in other words, astounding).
I *highly* recommend you checking out it.
Andy’s link is in the comments. Methinks you’ll have the same reaction as did I.
Your takeaway? NEVER judge a product by its cover. Never ever. I’ve already privately apologized to Kam… but if I goof, I prefer to teach others from my mistakes.
I was 140% wrong in my initial reaction. Learn from me… and always be willing to check out anything that bears the seeds of greatness.
Let me know what you think!…”
Good stuff!
Here’s the vid:

Don’t forget yesterdays:
Where was I?
Ah yes, Sunday!
Daylight Savings time!
Yesterday was rather productive in getting up my Bitcoin buy buttons for the future (read: Yay!).
And I’m tempted by the iPhone X – my husband said, I really should do a product sweep on that.
I’m not an iPhone enthusiast but…..
Why not?
And whats this about stats? You know how 98% of marketers fail to consider them….
What is *them*, I hear you ask?
Make up stats, of course. 
Well, actually, probably bunches of marketers make up stats.
But what about sites that actually research what’s important to your business metrics?
www.hubspot.com/marketing-statistics
covers a big huge bleepload of stats just waiting for you, including:
SEO
Mobile Search
Voice Search
Content Strategy
Podcasts
and the like.
What I found interesting was the Marketing Technology stats like:
82% of smartphone users say they consult their phones on purchases they’re about to make in a store.
I myself NEVER do that.
Which brings me to the biggest takeaway from this all….
While stats are fascinating indeed…
… make sure they are applicable to YOUR targeted audience!
For example, if your audience is comprised of mainly baby boomers, mobile phone usage is probably ‘way less than, say, millennial.
And if your audience is hugely political, politician controversy will probably affect them ‘way more than, say, the latest Marvel movie.
So your takeaway?
Don’t panic regarding stats.
Apply them instead to your targeted niche audience… and take the best that works from it for your future promotions and beyond.
Enjoy!
Elsewhere in Lingland, ’tis a quiet day. Hopefully will get to the movies!

🙂
And lets talk discipline instead of *motivation*.
I wrote a bit about that over at:
“=-=-= F*ck Motivation. Instead, Challenge Yourself with THIS =-=-=
Ever wish you could find the motivation to accomplish something…
… but the truth is, you’d rather rather hand-paint dainty puppy toenails with smiley faces than actually *get things done*?
If so, you’re not alone (and think of that brand new niche of small-pet beauty styles!)
See… the thing is, motivation isn’t something you *find*.
It’s something you *create*.
It has to come from within *you*.
Because the sad fact is, if you don’t eat/live/breathe/drink coffee from it, it can brutally disappear at a moment’s notice.
So instead of espousing ‘motivation’, instead, you should sing to the heavens about ‘Heartbeats’.
Heartbeats, I hear you wonder?
Yep, heartbeats, you hear me reply (in my best Morgan Freeman voice).
Because, without a heartbeat, you know…”
