If you want to learn marketing the hustler way P.Diddy is your teacher. On my old blog I wrote about Diddy’s marketing efforts with web 2.0 sites and anything else he can use. Here are some of Diddy’s effort to put his name out there.

Diddy had a MySpace account

YouTube still uses this has his own channel

Viral videos just put them out there

Now Twitter

As a business man Diddy has done very well for himself and we should learn from his marketing. Visit Diddys sites and you will see how much this man works and promotes his brands. We should all have his energy to promote our affiliate offers or other business.

So, now I follow Diddy on Twitter!

Barack Obama used social networking to create a vast online community that has changed politics forever. And that’s precisely what businesses need to do.

In Barack, Inc.: Winning Business Lessons of the Obama Campaign, Barry Libert and Rick Faulk present the three business leadership lessons from the Obama campaign that can help beat even the toughest competitors.

It’s amazing the technology that President Obama used to reach the people and win the election With Twitter Facebook and anything else his team could use history was made. The lesson for online marketers is that these tools have value and if you can tap into the technology you can use it to gain business advantages. The number of people using social media is growing and it is time to learn everything there is in the new method of communication.

The use of My Space for advertising has been around for awhile. The profile pages have been used for promoting all sorts of things. Many musicians use My Space for their new music and concerts. The site has also been used by small business owners for promoting all sorts of products and service, but I found a new way to advertise on My Space. They also offer a Adwords type program.

The cost for keywords will be a little less then Adwords, but response rates might not be as high as on Googles platform. There are a few sites I will be promoting by setting up ad’s on My Space. In order to measure the success rate I will try to limit the ad’s to one product that I am not promoting on any other ad network. There are mixed reviews about the My Space Ad network, so it will be interesting to see the results.
