1. Use Sniply To Get Leads From Every Post, Even If The Content Shared Is Not Yours!

Wouldn't it be brilliant if every piece of content you shared could bring a lead to your site, and that includes content you share on Facebook, LinkedIN, and Twitter. Well, you can achieve this using Sniply.

Sniply is a tool that literally lets you add a link to content on the content itself. Here is how it works. Once I have a Sniply account I add the extension to my Chrome browser and whenever I find a piece of content I like I click the Sniply icon:

Once there I can create a call to action button and alter its colour and location as you can see below I have changed it completely.

After I have decided on it's location and style, I will then press the snip it button and a range of sharing options pop up as well as the finished call to action. 

If I am happy with it I literally just click the icon of the social media network I want to share it on and off the snip goes. This is what the Tweet looks like in my feed:

When one of my audience sees the post and clicks on it, they will go to the original content and see my pop up as it has been designed and if they click the link they go to my home site.

This technique is amazing, and I can use it to get leads from the amazing content that others have created. So it is a win, win situation for everyone. In this example I used the amazing post on list building by Brian Dean at Backlinko, I can literally share the best content and get the potential of leads from every share.
