Unless youve been living under a rock for the past couple of years youve probably heard of a little website called Myspace. Myspace is an extremely popular website that allows you to connect with the people around you by setting up a profile, adding friends and blogging among other things.



While almost everyone on the planet knows what a Myspace is not everyone knows the power it can have in helping you grow your business!





If youve heard about Myspace and youre over the age of say 25 youve probably had someone tell you that Myspace is a young person thing. That theres no real opportunity for adults because the only people on Myspace are a bunch of 14 or 15 year oldsWRONG!



The truth is Myspace is for EVERYONE, and if you own your own business its something you should defiantly be taking advantage of!



I talk to people about Myspace a lot and Ive heard just about every excuse in the book, however the fact of the matter is there really isnt any GOOD reason not to be involved in the Myspace craze especially if you have a website to promote.



Myspace excuse #1

I wouldnt know how to work it



Myspace is extremely user friendly, its fast and easy to set up and no HTML is required for anything! There are 80 year old grandmothers on Myspace with great looking pages so trust me you can do it too!



Myspace excuse #2

I dont have enough time to commit to it



Once youve gotten your page set up the way you like it you can spend as little as 5 minutes a day updating your page, responding to messages and adding new friends. Of course you CAN spend more time than that. In fact a lot of people enjoy Myspace so much that they become addicted to it and want to be on it all the time! (That of course is not the best idea because there are lots of other things you could be doing to market your business online!)



If you cant make a commitment of 30 40 minutes per week to help your business grow then maybe owning your own business isnt right for you. just a thought.



Myspace excuse #3

I dont think the type of people Im looking for will be on Myspace



There are people of every age, race, gender, occupation and location on Myspace so no matter what kind of people youre looking for you can be sure there are plenty of them on Myspace and a lot of them could be looking for exactly what you have to offer!



Myspace excuse #4

I wont know what to say



Myspace is centered around YOU. You do know how to talk about yourself I assume? The worst thing you can do on Myspace is try to sell, sell, sell, SELL! So if youre not great at writing a bunch of sales copy youll do just fine on Myspace. Your ultimate goal is to get people to go check out your website so you dont WANT to give all the information away anyway.



Your Myspace isnt going to take the place of your regular website it simply leads people to your website. Bottom line, if you know how to talk about yourself, your struggles and your victories you can have a GREAT Myspace page.



Myspace excuse #5

I already have lots of people visiting my website everyday



If you are in MLM or own your own small business you know that the only thing better than having lots of prospects is having lots and LOTS of prospects. Even if youre a great internet marketer and youre website gets lots of hits per day you can always use more right? Of course you can, and Myspace is a great way to get more!



I hope after reading some of these common excuses youll understand that Myspace really is for anyone and everyone and you should absolutely become its newest member as soon as possible!
