Stop Lurking, Start Posting: How Forums Can Help You Market and Promote Yourself!

 

lurk

 

We know you’re online! We see you reading the forums, so why not post? 

Here are the top five excuses and why every one of them is just that… an excuse! You are missing out on one of the easiest and best ways to market and promote yourself, not to mention building new friendships, relationships and learning from others.  Sometimes in this world, it’s not what you know, but WHO you know that matters!

 

1.  Most people are afraid that others will bash their posts. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, so why not share yours? Share the news you see in other places. Share workouts, training tips, beauty tips and more!  The moderators are there to delete any out of hand posts or subjects, so that’s no excuse!

2.  It’s a waste oftopforums time! Really? The NPC/IFBB promoters and judges don’t think so! They read and post and so should you! You can meet SO many people who also compete and are interested in the lifestyle just like yourself, so why not?

3.  I don’t have time! Prioritize! You ALWAYS make time for the things that are important to you!

4.  I do enough social marketing with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.! You can NEVER do enough to promote yourself, so why not get your name out on websites that are directly linked to the industry!

5.  No one will care about what I have to say. Don’t believe it. If I had a nickel for every time someone has said how much a post or a comment orxgirlbgimager just one positive bit of encouragement has inspired or motivated them, why, I’d be more than rich! Post for that one person you just might inspire!

 

The websites and forums keep you up to date on the latest and greatest happenings in the bodybuilding world. I’ve heard stories of people meeting agents in companies and getting sponsored, developing relationships and getting married, and meeting the diet coach that worked with them to earn pro status all right here on the RX Muscle Forums. You are only hurting yourself by not participating! Stop making excuses and let’s start promoting you!
