Description: How to use Google+ communities to connect with influencers
If you need to connect with influential people as part of your marketing strategy, no other social media property will give you better traction than Google+ and its Communities. As business people abandon Facebook for Google+, they’re often confused about where to start, where to spend most of their time and how to make the best contacts.

I’m CEO of Maximum-Plus.com and I teach Google+ strategy to brands, educators, associations and entrepreneurs. In this one-hour webinar, I’ll show you step-by-step how to make Communities one your most powerful networking tools.

You will learn:
• How Google+ communities can be your marketing and PR ace in the hole
• The difference between Communities and Circles
• How to find Communities that are perfect for you
• How to avoid newbie mistakes and create a killer profile so you put your best foot forward
• How to properly introduce yourself to the Community instead of squandering this opportunity like most people do
• Why you must NOT pitch…because you’ll be banned, and what to do instead
• The crucial 12 to 1 rule
• The etiquette of sharing and resharing content
• How to determine fairly quickly if a Community you’ve joined is worth the time and effort
• Why Google+ is no substitute for an integrated marketing plan
• How to use Google+ and its Communities in tandem with your blog
• Tips for starting your own Community and how to know when the time is right
