Why Klout?
- SOCIAL PROOF
- Yes all this Klout stuff is important.
- So much nonsense out there Klout is like a big popularity filter.
- You can then pay attention to people with high Klout scores.
- I.e. higher signal/noise ratio.
- You get noticed by being visible.
- I know have a high six figure annual career because of my Klout
- Take a look www.iboommedia.com
- Being noticed means better connections, more money etc.
- Markets are conversations.
- Knowing your audience well means that you’ll know what they will be interested in and therefore engage in.
- Even if that means content targeted to niche segments of your audience rather mass attacking.
- Do what you do and engage others, attract them to the possibility, not push them.
You see below last night I did some experimenting and saw a move from 69 to 81 overnight.

Seek out people who already have high Klout scores or large follower base and include these people in your conversation – your name is carried
Re-share your best content as the life of a message is short – followers don’t have time to scroll back over 24 hours worth of postings.
Use a scheduling tool to post at your off-hours.

Try this IFTTT Recipe: Instagram pics published natively on Twitter

Set up is the same as above – and prevents Instagram photos being shared to Twitter as links, but as native photos instead.
IFTTT with Twitter search
IFTTT with Twitter search
- Set IFTTT to tweet “Improving my Klout score everyday! @jmhhacker @iboommedia @matthewindustry every time someone tweets “#klout” it MIGHT make sense to delay this tweet with Buffer.
- BUT if I set IFTTT to respond “Let’s talk when you have a minute” every time someone tweets with #klouttips I want that effect to be immediate, not delayed otherwise I lose the possibility to “chat”.
Also one of my fav recipes is that every time I post to instagram it posts to twitter

Finally… The BIG tip…
Every time I post silly little things that are human and personal my engagement goes through the roof.
For example Several months ago while visiting a friend. I made the rookie mistake of thinking the house was empty. After all, I managed to walk downstairs, make myself some scrambled eggs for breakfast, take the dog out, and not hear a peep from anyone. I just naturally assumed I was home alone.
Boredom sets in and I whip out the laptop to view adult material (hey I am human)when I see my phone light up with a text from my friend.
I figure he is letting me know he in on the way home
Then it hit me. I heard the wheeling of the computer chair in the den downstairs. I take a big gulp. The text says we came up to the room but saw yo were busy 🙂 let us know when your done.
See that’s real yet embarrassing but was social media gold. I believe that post was liked a few hundred times and retweeted over 300 more.
Point is don’t be afraid to be real even if it is humiliating!
And finally post content that Klout think you are relevant in. I make posts all the time using #klout #branding #business etc and klout sees this which makes me a top expert in that niche.
