			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Traffic, Traffic and more Traffic!</p>
<p>To be successful in making money online you need to generate a lot of web site traffic.  There are a lot of free ways to do this but today I am going to share one way I tried this afternoon.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve always wanted to test using <a title="Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com">Facebook&#8217;s</a> ad system so I put up an add for <a title="Camtasia Video Income" href="http://www.camtasiavideoincome.com/">Camtasia Video Income</a>.  The first ad was not approved because I used too many capital letters and improper punctuation.</p>
<p>Well earlier this evening I re-did my ad and corrected my problems.  Within an hour it was approved.  My daily budget was set to $25.00.</p>
<p>Here is how the ad looks and reads&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-8"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://img.skitch.com/20080628-cjpgdek8u6bb3aw7qpaypd3btx.jpg" alt="Web Site Traffic" width="529" height="433" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">As you can see the stats aren&#8217;t good.  In fact, it cost be $25 to get 33 clicks and I only received two sign-ups to my autoresponder.  Either the landing page is not action oriented enough or this type of traffic is not good.  I&#8217;m not sure at this point.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;m going to give it one more day and then make the decision to see if i continue to this source or not.  I&#8217;ll keep you posted.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">But these go to <a title="Camtasia Video Income" href="http://www.camtasiavideoincome.com/">Camtasia Video Income</a> and let me know if you think I need to make changes to the landing page?  Leave a comment and let me know.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I am going to investigate additional resources such as <a title="Traffic 2.0" href="http://www.marketingsoftwaretools.com/Traffic2.0/">Traffic 2.0</a>.  I may find that I can get more traffic and not have to mess with paying for it.  With this tool I can Just harness the power of web 2.0</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px; float: left;" src="http://img.skitch.com/20080625-1dtrd5m1i8ybguf6n9d85r2sf7.jpg" alt="Camtasia Video Income" width="225" height="290" />Since my last post I got busy!</p>
<p>Here you&#8217;ll find out about Day Three of my Make Money Online goals.  I actually put up a site and prepared it for business.  I&#8217;ll share that with you shortly.</p>
<p>But first let me walk through the steps of getting it all started.</p>
<p><strong>Step One: </strong>My first order of business was to set-up my <a title="Website Hosting" href="http://automaticmoneytools.com/Hosting">hosting</a>.  I did that and my hosting account is awesome.  I can add multiple domains and have them operate independently.  This is handy since I don&#8217;t want to pay for new <a title="Quality Hosting" href="http://automaticmoneytools.com/Hosting">hosting</a> for each site I put up.</p>
<p><strong>Step Two: </strong>I set up a new site and set up the product.  As I mentioned in a earlier post I grabbed the resale rights to a product but if you don&#8217;t have one then you should check out the <a title="Information Product Dashboard" href="http://automaticmoneytools.com/InfoProducts">Info-Product Dashboard</a></p>
<p><span id="more-7"></span></p>
<p><strong>Step Three: </strong>I added a new landing page to capture prospects.  In addition, I whipped together a video explaining the product and trying to motivate the visitors to subscribe.  I used a program to deliver the video on the web page called <a title="Audio Acrobat" href="http://automaticmoneytools.com/AudioAcrobat">Audio Acrobat</a></p>
<p>Now I know I glossed over the information to get this site set-up and you probably have a lot of questions.  So what you should do is go through the cycle.  In other words, go to the landing page and sign-up to get the  autoresponder series I put together and take notice of the steps.</p>
<p><strong>So here is the product I set up&#8230;. <a title="Camtasia Video Income" href="http://www.camtasiavideoincome.com/">Camtasia Video Income</a></strong></p>
<p>Please leave me a comment with your thoughts, questions and feedback.  As I go, I&#8217;ll share some of the stats with you.</p>
<p>Have a good one!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" style="float: left; margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px;" src="http://img.skitch.com/20080618-gemdg26u3bpuj3qpn4d7p7hq6.jpg" alt="Make Money Online Journal" width="214" height="141" />Today I was able to get through 36 pages of the <a title="The Great Formula" href="http://www.simpleology.com/courses/tgf/" target="_self">Great Formula</a>.  Of course many of the first handful of pages was justification about why reading this PDF will help you <strong>make money online.</strong></p>
<p>The author, Mark Joyner went into great detail about why the Great Formula works but the meat came in chapter 7 on page 32.</p>
<p>Step One:  <strong>Create an Irresistible Offer</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-6"></span></p>
<blockquote><p><em>The Irresistible Offer is an identity-building offer central to a product, service, or company where the believable return on investment is communicated so clearly and ef?ciently that it’s immediately apparent you’d have to be a fool to pass it up.</em></p>
<p><em>Mark Joyner</em></p></blockquote>
<p>To improve sells using the irresistible offer you need to answer the following four questions.  If you can do this quickly and efficiently then you will sell more products, services or memberships that you thought possible.</p>
<ol>
<li>What Are You Trying To Sell Me?</li>
<li>What Is The Cost?</li>
<li>Why Should I believe You?</li>
<li>What&#8217;s In It For Me?</li>
</ol>
<p>This information is all very important but we haven&#8217;t even decided on a product or service to go after.</p>
<p>I bought some resell right products the other day that I planned on using for this make money online journal.  These products came with complete sales pages, graphics and a product (if you are interested I&#8217;ll show you where I got them.)</p>
<p>Over the next few days I&#8217;ll show you how I plan on setting them up, including the <a title="High Quality Affordable Hosting" href="http://www.bluehost.com/track/virtual/AMT" target="_self">hosting</a>, the squeeze page with video and how I plan on receiving money.  I will include video to help you understand what is possible and you can see my every step.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the rub and benefit for you and others.  You have the opportunity to leave comments and ask questions.  I haven&#8217;t added the comment Luv plugin yet but I&#8217;ll do that after I publish this post so when you do leave a comment, your latest link to your blog will be posted in your comment.  That way you get to exposure for your business as well.</p>
<p>My goal is to get a dialogue going and create a conversation for readers of what is working and what doesn&#8217;t or hasn&#8217;t for each of you.  We can leverage our collective experience to improve all of our results.</p>

<p>Welcome to <strong>“how to make money online with Automatic Money Tools.”</strong></p>
<p>This is not going to be a blog with short post loaded with some affiliate links here and there, in hopes of me making affiliate cash from you.</p>
<p>Instead, I’m going to show you how I am going to build a business online and, dare I say it…Live the American Dream.<br />
Is this possible?</p>
<p><span id="more-4"></span></p>
<p>I’m not completely sure, however, you’ll know what works for me and what didn’t.   I’ll share the good with the bad.</p>
<p>In an honest effort of full disclosure… I have to admit that I have a few successful online ventures online.  Trust me I do not live in a million dollar home, nor do I drive a BMW 750 IL (my dream car BTW.)</p>
<p>I do make several thousand a month from my online ventures.  But this blog will not be about them because they are already established.  Let’s be clear… as my tagline says….”Make Money Online by Working Smart Not Hard”, is going to be focused on building a business ethically and strategically.  No short cuts, although I do use software to give me a competitive advantage.</p>
<p>Understanding that tagline is more important than you may initially think because nothing worth anything, is easy.</p>
<p>Let me repeat…</p>
<p>Anything that is worthwhile in your eyes will not be completely easy.  You’ll have to work at it.  But to me that’s not working hard.  I love trying new things on the internet, testing using the process of self-discovery as my motivation.  Of course, making some money is nice too!  <img src='http://automaticmoneytools.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Make Money Online Baseline</strong></p>
<p>As I mentioned earlier, you’ll discover the methods, tools and ideas behind my quest for my BMW.</p>
<p><strong><em>Sidenote:</em></strong> You’ll notice I have a clearly defined “Why.”</p>
<p>Why am I trying to make money online?  Simply, I want a cool car.  But you may want money to get out of debt, or to stop working for the “man.”</p>
<p>Whatever your “why” you need to keep it in front of you and work your plan.  If you don’t have a plan, that’s ok.  As you follow along, you’ll begin to develop one.</p>
<p><strong>So let’s get started!</strong></p>
<p>I’m using a couple of items to help me form my starting point, as well as, to help me with long term execution.</p>
<p>First, I am building my business off of a manual called “<a title="The Great Formula" href="http://www.simpleology.com/courses/tgf/" target="_self">The Great Formula</a>.”  Don’t worry, I haven’t read the entire PDF myself, although I am following along and as I go, incorporating some of the ideas into my business model.  You should too.</p>
<p>The manual is free and you can get it by clicking here.</p>
<p>Secondly, I am using Jeff Walker’s <a title="Product Launch Formula" href="http://productlaunchformula.com/" target="_self">Product Launch Formula 2.0</a> (this is not free) but I bought it several months ago and it has helped me with a few other online sites that I’ve rolled out.  If you’re interested you can learn more about it here.</p>
<p>Finally, I am using a MAC, which is a first for me.  All of my online ventures have been accomplished with a PC.  This will be interesting, however, I don’t think it will be necessary for you to worry about what type of system you are using.</p>
<p>I actually use software programs that work off of both systems so I jump back and forth.  But again, it really doesn’t matter.</p>
<p><strong>Other Great Tools</strong></p>
<p>Since we are going to be building an online business, hosting is critical.  I’ve used a lot of different partners but my favorite is <a title="High Quality Hosting" href="http://www.bluehost.com/track/virtual/AMT" target="_self">Blue Host</a> and as we go I’ll share more, but the key is that, for a nominal price, you get great quality (uptime), an easy to use interface, and the ability to add-on multiple domain names.  This is key to holding down your cost and gaining more profitability from your business.</p>
<p>In addition, you may want to get involved in the <a title="30 Day Challenge" href="http://www.thirtydaychallenge.com/" target="_self">30 Day Challenge</a> with Ed Dale and Dan Rain.  The quality of their free content is amazing and you’ll learn how to do proper keyword research and learn all about easy ways to get noticed.</p>
<p>Ok that’s it for now. Oh, if you want to make it easier to follow along with my journey (and hopefully yours as well.) then simply <a title="Automatic Money Tools Feed" href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/AutomaticMoneyTools" target="_blank">subscribe to Automatic Money Tools feed</a>.  You can do so here:  <a title="Autmatic Money tools" href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/AutomaticMoneyTools" target="_blank">Subscribe</a><br />
In addition, I provide free online tools on occasion… but to get those you’ll need to subscribe to my mailing list.  You can so so below.</p>
<p><!-- OIFM:Free Software --></p>
<p>I look forward to a fun, yet profitable journey.</p>
<p>Talk to you later!</p>
