Thousands of people are flocking to Ryze, but whats the fuss about? Ryze holds a world of opportunity for those in business, and even those not in busines.
What is Ryze? Ryze is a networking community, similar to communication
boards or Yahoo Groups. Although imagine for a minute that all those groups and boards we are
rolled up into one page
and you had a human
page all about you. This concept IS Ryze. The personal page eliminates the need for signatures in messages, due to a clickable link leading to your personal page.
Your first step when joining Ryze is making your personal page. Here are a few tips for creating your home page:
~ Pictures are a must, even if they are just your business logo. Personal pages with pictures get much more attention.
~ Information about your business - why it was started, what your goals behind the business are, specials, and a subscription box in you have a news letter
~ Personal data
- pictures of your family, what you like to do in your spare measure
, informaton on your hobbies and interests.
~ Set up your email, address, home phone, and any other understanding you would like to give people on an individual basis. This might
be done by clicking on "Edit personal info" (Link on the left hand side), then choosing "Contact Info for release to others".
After your home page is set up, its measure
to join a communication
board (called "networks" on Ryze. Start slow by only joining one or two, and be sure they are of interest to you. Read the rules of the board and read through a few posts to get a "feel" of the board before joining. There are two purposes of a network that are similar to regular groups and message boards:
1. Meet new all the people ~ This does not mean finding everybody to sell
to. A person you meet can do several different things:
- Become a customer
- Introduce you to another customer
- Open up other networking opportunities
- Become a partner
- Become a friend
You might
get to understand
those you meet on networks a step further by visiting their home pages (just like the one you set up) and signing their guest book. From their home page you might
view their page
and any other information they have, along with the other networks they are members of and their list of friend. If you should add them as a friend, their title
will show up on your home page as a friend of yours.
2. Share Ideas/Get Opinions ~ Key word here being SHARE. Asking for ideas and opinions is sizeably good, but giving them is more important. Be sure you are giving back to the community.
The opportunities are endless on Ryze. Aside from finding others on networks, you might
visit home pages of all the people your friends have added as a friend. Pay close attention to an individuals "Want" and "Have" located at the top of their page. Also be sure to visit their web sites for possible hyperlink exchanges.
