Look What Came In The Mail – Klout Perk

by R Smith

My Klout Perk

My Klout Perk

Love it when I get packages in the mail.  Especially when they contain something useful and FREE!

Today a package arrived and I couldn’t remember ordering anything.  I opened the box and then I remembered the email I had received from Klout about a free “perk” I was eligible for.    I remember saying yes I was interested in trying the product, but totally forgot about it till today.

WHAT IS KLOUT

Your probably wondering “What is Klout?”   Klout digs deep into social media to understand how people influence each other, so that everyone can discover and be recognized for how they influence the world.

WHAT IS INFLUENCE?

Influence is the ability to drive action. When you share something on social media or in real life and people respond, that’s influence. The more influential you are, the higher your Klout Score.

THE SCORE

The Klout Score measures a person’s overall online influence on a scale of 1 to 100, with 100 being the most influential. Klout’s system analyzes multiple social networks based on your engagement. It is the number in the orange box on your profile.  The Klout Score is updated daily. Check out your score history graph on your dashboard to track your score’s progress over the last 90 days.

The average Klout Score is 40. Users with a score of 63 or higher are in the top 5% of all users. My score is 63 so I am thrilled! The best way to increase your score is to create content that people want to share and respond to. For the most accurate score, be sure to connect all of your social networks. The more that others engage with your content such as through retweet, mention, like, comment, etc, the higher your Score will be. Learn more about the Klout Score here: http://klout.com/corp/kscore

KLOUT PERKS

When your score increases or they think you are influencing the right number of people in a certain category, they send you a “perk”.   This is the first “perk” I have received.   Must say it is nice to receive stuff like this for free and I don’t have to do anything.  The card just mentions that if I tell people about getting a “perk” I need to disclose that I was not paid for the advertising.

Perks are exclusive rewards you earn for your influence. Once you are a registered Klout user, you are eligible to receive future Perks depending on your Klout Score, topical influence, location, and other factors. Make sure your age, location, and email is up to date in the settings section to ensure your eligibility for future Perks. Keep an eye on your Perks inbox and email, one might be coming your way soon! 

Every day, influencers receive amazing products, discounts and VIP access that is only available to Klout users.

MY FIRST PERK

So what exactly did I receive   Three full-size products of Freeman’s VITA-K Professional Products.   You can see them in the picture below.

Freeman VITA-K Products

      • VITA-K Professional for Age Spots
      • VITA-K Professional for Crow’s Feet
      • VITA-K Professional for Deep Facial Lines

Plus there were two samples of VITA-K Professional for Dark Circles. (Missed them when taking the picture)

I have not tried them yet, but plan to use them this evening.

Coincidentally, yesterday, I received another email about another “perk”.   A $5.00 gift card from McDonald’s.   I’m not a huge fan of Mickey D’s but I’m sure my son will enjoy eating for free.

When I joined Klout, I never realized I would get free stuff.

GIVE +K

Are you on Klout?   You might want to consider joining. You can join at http://klout.com.  If you are already on Klout, lets give each other some Klout and help raise each other’s scores.  Have a friend that knows what they’re talking about? Give them a +K on their profile in Klout to endorse their influence.

DISLCOSURE

I was given a  free product or sample because I’m a Klout influencer.  I am under no obligation to receive the sample or talk about this company.  I get no additional benefits for talking about the product or company.

What Is Going On In My Life

by R Smith

Life is exciting!  I’ve been juggling quite a few projects lately.  Thought this might be a good time to let you know some of the things that have been happening and where I have been spending my time.

Tuesday Tech TipsTuesday Tech Tips

Many of you are aware of the joint venture I have with Debbie O’Grady doing the weekly podcast “Tuesday Tech Tips.”   This is a 20 – 30  minute weekly podcast about  technology and apps that are useful for anyone, especially those in business. We record the podcast on Tuesday at 7 and then the recording is placed on our website. The recording is also available on iTunes. It is sort of exciting to search on iTunes for a podcast and see my name come up.   Debbie and I are super excited to be there and look forward to many more podcasts.

Wonderful Women In Business

Last August I met a group of wonderful women at a live event (NAMS workshop) and five of us decided to create a joint venture titled, Wonderful Women In Business.  We met again in Atlanta in February and moved the project forward.   Our mission is to inspire other women to be successful business owners and to help them with the tips and tools to get there.   So far we have a facebook page, and a website. We are working on a series of books and plan to have some podcasts in the future.

Blogging Intern

About two months ago, I was checking email and noticed one from Kelly McCausey from Solo Smarts.   She is a veteran podcaster and I had purchased her Smart Podcasting Skills Course to learn the steps of podcasting.   The e-mail said she was hunting for some interns to write for her blogs and in return they would receive some free training and coaching.    Kelly has a reputation for being a “kick butt” coach and not putting up with excuses, etc.   I felt that would help me to move forward.   I have been learning stuff for over a year, but I needed to do more and I thought this might be a great opportunity.   So I applied for the internship and was accepted.  Interning with Kelly McCausey has been a great experience so far.  It is 15 weeks long and I just completed week three and let me tell you I am learning much!

I am considered a contributing writer for thehouseholdhelper.com blog.  It is a part of the Mom’s Talk Network.  Sort of exciting for me.  I have written three posts so far, each on a very different topic.

My first topic was Companion Gardening, then I wrote about Planning Family Reunions, and then this week I wrote about Laundry tips.

Stretch Yourself Challenge

Because I am interning with Kelly, I also get to participate in some of the courses she is running.  One of them is the “Stretch Yourself Challenge”   Just doing the blog internship has been a stretch for me with everything else.

For the past year I have been in constant learning mode.  I need to be doing more.   So this challenge is helping me to get out of my comfort zone and do a lot of new things. I needed a bit of a kick start.

Small Office/Home Office Coaching Program

I am also involved in the SOHO coaching program with Sandi Krakowski.   She teaches the ins and outs of operating a home business.  Eventually I want my business to replace my current income.  I hope to leave the full-time job early and want a business to retire to.   So this training will help make my dream come true.

So I have been in both learning and doing mode.  Learning new things and putting what I learn into action.   

On top of this, I have been recovering from surgery, going to rehab three times per week and still working that full time job.   Also doing the routine things like cleaning house, cooking meals, being a mom, etc.

Needless to say my life has been most busy….but a very, very good busy.  I’m having lots of fun and feel very passionate about life.   I invite you to come visit me at the other blogs, on iTunes, and on the various social networks.   Although I might not have been posting a lot recently I am here and not going anywhere.   You will be seeing me everywhere soon!

So tell me, what have you been up to?  I know some of you have exciting things happening.
