1. Join Varolo.
Things to look for when joining Varolo. Make sure it is an active village with members who will give you support and help you succeed.
You can find these members here on my site, check out the Varolo Villages page to find active Varolo members who want to help you grow your village.
2. Establish positive contact.
Ensure your profile setting are set to receive email from your village.
Every time I get a "Your Village is Growing" email from Varolo, I log in and attempt to establish positive contact with my new village members. This positive contact is how I get their village links for my page, and later their Varolo reviews for the Member Spotlight.
Without positive contact I can't help you grow your village.
3. Take a few days to explore Varolo before you start working to build your village.
The best way to build your village is to know everything you can about Varolo. By taking a few days to explore after you join, you will be able to develop talking points. Talking points are all the reasons you feel people should join Varolo. You will also be equipped to answer any questions people have.
4. Stay active with Varolo.
Staying active is key to growing your village. By staying active with Varolo and watching all the ads you can, you increase your points, sweepstakes entries and ensure you collect all your village earnings.
Staying active with your website or blog will keep you on top and your village growing from the Internet. Staying active with your off line promotions will ensure a steady stream of new members to your village. Staying active will also keep you in contact with other village members and help with positive motivation.
5. Be honest when you talk about Varolo.
Being honest is something we should all do already. But it is important when talking about Varolo. There are plenty of scams on the Internet, Varolo isn't one of them. When you promote Varolo honestly you will grow and develop an active village. Remember having an active growing village is one of two ways to make money with Varolo.
6. Establish your web presence.
The Internet is a great resource. Best of all there are literally hundreds of free sites your can use. By picking just a handful of these sites you can establish a web presence and begin growing your village. Whether you have an hour a week or two hours a day, with a bit of time and some work you can develop a constant stream of new villagers.
Join my village or one of my members villages, establish positive contact through Varolo and let me help you start building your web presence. I have spent the time identifying ways to build and link your site to get traffic flowing to you. Use my research and guides to develop you own site or blog. The best part is that everything I do is repeatable by you.
Remember the Internet is at work for you 24/7. So when your sleeping, working or spending time with your family, your village is growing.
7. Take time to grow your village offline.
Just because Varolo is an online site doesn't mean you can't grow it offline. Lots of people I have talked to are growing their villages through offline promotion. I put it last because this is one promotion method that takes a little money.
Talk to People
Talk to people about Varolo and I don't just mean your friends and family. Once you have your talking points you need to talk to people about Varolo. Make sure it is appropriate and then plug your village. I talk about Netflix when people start talking about T.V. (I only watch Netflix anymore), talk about Varolo when they ask if you saw that new funny commercial.
Business Cards
These should have your village link, and your website on them. Always keep a few on you to hand out. Every time you talk to someone new about Varolo give them a card.
Fliers
This is classic promotion. You can print up a full page flier and post them around town. You can do half and quarter page fliers to pass out around neighbor hoods.
Bumper Sticker or Other Car Decal
People spend hours every day in their cars. If you have a bumper sticker or some other form of car decal you will literally be promoting your village to thousands of people every day.
Shirts
Get a shirt made and wear it once a week. This works for hundreds of other business's and rock bands, so become your own walking village billboard. Do this when your going someplace with high traffic, like the mall. Make sure you have your business cards with you for anyone who asks.
Remember:
"I have said it many times before. Varolo is not a sprint, it is a marathon. This often falls on deaf ears because people see the concept and think they will be rich overnight or that it will be easy. And while true for some, most people have to work to grow a village. But if you work at it, your village will grow. As you continue to work at it…it will begin to grow on its own…and that is when things get exciting." - Kevin Prince, CEO Varolo
Varolo is not a sprint, it is a marathon. Run the race with people who know and understand this. Join a village with others who are here to run the marathon with you.
