TSA Mastery Newbie Jitters
Last night I was introduced to a new blogging concept called TSA Mastery. On one hand I’m very excited and anxious to get involved, and on the other it looks a bit overwhelming at first glance.
The overall theme is to join what they call “tribes” to help each other generate traffic for our blogs. It is a true people helping people environment. I wanted to get started last night, but was completely overwhelmed and I was a bit tired as my daughter and I marched in a 4 mile Mardi Gras parade.
I went back in today to see what I can figure out, and based on the “activity spreadsheet” I think I am waiting to officially get an invitation. Last night, I missed that message and started commenting on blogs. No harm, no foul as I enjoyed the information I read.
The video I just watch was of Gavin Mountford explaining the 3 step process of:
Connecting, Commenting, and Sharing.
Each week you will be assigned a tribe and are encouraged to connect with your tribe members, comment on their blogs, and syndicate their content through social media. In turn, they will do the same for you. It is truly a give and you will receive system.
At this point (2nd day reading about it), I’m still a little nervous as I am the type of person who doesn’t want to join a tribe and let my team down, so I want to make sure I’m properly informed of what I need to do.
I’ll keep reading and watching videos until I get an actual notice. I am REALLY looking forward to taking advantage of this system.
Hope to meet you in TSA Mastery one day!

Well, this is a bit late, but welcome to TSA. It is a great community. In fact the engagement and encouragement to syndicate is great... far better than some of the comment exchange communities I was a part of a little over half a decade ago.
I originally found out about it when I met Kimberly Castleberry and it took a few months until I warmed up and joined. I have met many people and learned a lot. The best thing is the engagement. :D

Likeblondishnet Thanks Nile. This is my first comment exchange community and thoroughly enjoy it so I'll probably never experience another. As was impressed with Kimberly Castleberry's blog, as I was yours, and I wish I could have heard her Facebook webinar last weekend but was busy.
Thanks again for your welcome.

LikeHello Nathan
Welcome, great decision on becoming a member of TSAmastery. TSA is the place to build traffic and comments to your blog and that is important. Your personal growth as a blogger will multiply from the training and the information that you find on the members blogs.

Likeincomestream Thank you, Perry. I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. By the way, are you in Nashville? Or (I want to say) Hendersonville? At one time I was thinking of buying a banjo from a company in Hendersonville. I think it was called Huber.

LikeHi Nathan,
Getting traffic and comments on your blog when it is new can be a challenge. If you stick with writing quality content, SEO your posts and comment on other blogs you will get what you want.
Having ComLuv enabled is a great way to get people to come to your site and leave a comment.

LikeThanks Justin. I will do my level best to contribute to other folks' blogs and try to keep up. My buddy Pete Chapman recommended ComLuv and TSA so I have to give him props for that :)

LikeHi Nathan. I understand the concept of TSA is a bit confusing at first, but you will get the hang of it. I've been here for about 2 years and love it. What I am passionate about when syndicating is that I always learn something from a blog. Also I have made such good friends doing so.
Give yourself time and I'm sure you will resonate with people and they are the best gang around!
Looking forward to getting to know you,
Donna

LikeHi Donna, thank you for your insight. I just read one of your posts about self-discipline and found it quite useful. When I feel those negative thoughts creeping in, I'll refer back to your blog.

LikeHey Nathan - just a quick note to say you won't be sorry about your decision to give TSA a try. You'll find a great group of supportive people. It's like anything in life - you get out of it what you put in. Look forward to getting to know you.
