I see peers who struggle daily and are miserable as hell. Why do you think that is?\n\nIt is because they ignore the one part of social media that is vital to success. They ignore the word **SOCIAL**! \n\nYou see there are two words in social media and the one many marketers and online people push is the word media. It is because they do not want to bother building relationships. They just want to rake in profits without having to go the extra mile and build something lasting.\n\n### Social Media Offers the Chance of Success but You Have to Put in an Honest Effort. ###\n\nIt does not matter what social media channel you are on. You will find the people that can and the people that can't. The ones that can't are generally pretty negative or sit back and become envious voyeurs. While those who can build up a substantial following over time.\n\nThis is what Anabell and I did. We did not have success online overnight. When I first began I had a few clients that provided us the time and resources to build our presence. A few of these clients had access to hundreds of thousands of followers that they allowed me to leverage for our brand in an ethical manner.\n\nI began to see the power of collaboration. Here I was hammering out content,<br> making my clients look great online and they let me have access to their fans. So I began reaching beyond clients and started to blog for other sites with zero financial reward.\n\nAn amazing thing happened over time. Our followers and income grew exponentially. We are far from being what Westerners would consider wealthy but we are definitely rich compared to the people in our community. Many dream to be their own boss,<br> well this is how we did it.\n\n##11 Ways to Attract Collaboration Opportunities. ##\n\n1. Introduce Yourself minus a sales pitch. Be authentic,<br> people see right through BS.\n2. Share other peoples content without needing anything in return.\n3. Be a cheerleader for those who produce great content.\n4. Blog about people you admire.\n5. Use sites like [Klout (https:\/\/klout.com\/#\/explore\/bitcoin) to give High Fives to your peers on Twitter.\n6. Make lists of your favorite bloggers,<br> people,<br> artists and mention them with a link to their site or social media.\n7. Mention,<br> Retweet and like content from your favorite people or brands online. \n8. Make content like images that feature a quote from a person you admire and would like to collaborate with.\n9. Make videos talking about someone you admire with links to their content.\n10. Ask to collaborate!\n\n<center>http:\/\/www.azquotes.com\/picture-quotes\/quote-when-i-hear-people-debate-the-roi-of-social-media-it-makes-me-remember-why-so-many-business-gary-vaynerchuk-30-15-73.jpg<\/center>\n\n## Collaboration Opens Doors. ##\n\nNow you may be thinking that this is nothing other than kissing ass to get ahead. Well if you think about it human nature is the same offline and online. Believe me content producers are busy folks. Sometimes it takes a while to get noticed.\n\nIf someone decides not to collaborate with you don't get bent out of shape. Persevere until you find people that do.\n\n### The key question is,<br> \"do you want to be the lone wolf trying to survive alone,<br> or do you want to run with a pack of wolves?\" ###\n\nStart collaborating and build your pack. I know my pack is a bad ass group of content creating beasts. We genuinely care about each others success. Now get to work finding and bringing together your pack.\n\n[My Website (http:\/\/randyhilarski.com)\n[Anabell Hilarski (http:\/\/anahilarski.com)\n[Twitter (https:\/\/twitter.com\/RandyHilarski)\n[Facebook (https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RandyHilarski)\n[Google Plus (https:\/\/plus.google.com\/u\/0\/+RandyHilarskiMediapreneur\/posts)",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"social\",<br>\"media\",<br>\"teamwork\",<br>\"collaboration\",<br>\"steemit\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.randyhilarski.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Randy-Hilarski-Anabell-Hilarski-Team-Panama.jpg?w=900\",<br>\"http:\/\/www.azquotes.com\/picture-quotes\/quote-when-i-hear-people-debate-the-roi-of-social-media-it-makes-me-remember-why-so-many-business-gary-vaynerchuk-30-15-73.jpg\" ,<br>\"links\":[\"http:\/\/anahilarski.com\",<br>\"http:\/\/randyhilarski.com\" " | | vote | "voter":"hilarski",
