Thoughts:

I’ve used quite a few private label rights products from this service and highly recommend it. This is very high quality content that can be uploaded and used as is. But one of my favorite things about PLR is that it can be rewritten to make it more suited to a specific target audience and more in my own voice. You can also add your own web site links, affiliate links, or even paid advertising to the reports. Best of all, PLR content saves time and money, by eliminating the need to research and write all of your own material or to look for, hire, and pay content writers.

One thing I would caution you about when joining a content membership service such as this. To get the most out of it you need to be prepared to spend some time each month downloading, reviewing, and implementing the content. Otherwise you may end up simply storing hundreds of unused articles and reports (Of course you can always use it later on, but for me personally, I find that if I don’t use it with a month or two, I tend to forget about it.) If you are planning on using the content on your blog, your membership includes a handy tool that allows you to instantly publish the content to your blog with just a few clicks of the mouse.

How to Find Out More:

Reader Appreciation – How to Get Backlinks

It’s always wise to research and question any business opportunity before signing up. And as explained in Adrian Jock’s article below, income claims that you see as part of a sales letter or opportunity promotion don’t tell the whole story. Read on for the question you need to ask.

(And I highly recommend Adrian’s newsletter, even though it is “the worst.”)

The Secret Behind the Earning Claims
by Adrian Jock

If you didn’t land yesterday on the wonder planet called Internet, it’s impossible not to have seen a lot of testimonials, headlines or calls to action that contain earning claims similar with this one: “Using this great marketing system I made $x,xxx last week”. Many salesletters even show you some proofs of earnings like screen captures taken from seller’s or members’ PayPal accounts. Did you know that there is a well guarded secret behind them?

Let’s put aside the fact that in many cases the testimonials are signed by a John Doe and you will never know whether they are true or not. Let’s pretend they are real.

Let’s put aside also the fact that the PayPal account that is shown may contain also earnings resulted from selling also many OTHER stuff. Let’s pretend that the earnings shown are resulted only from using that “great marketing system”, or that “great ebook”, or whatever it was advertised.

You know what the problem is? This is only HALF of the truth. The second half of the truth I noticed that no one tells you about includes many data, but the most important one is this: What were the MARKETING COSTS spent in order to get that figure?

This information is CRUCIAL. If you need to spend $5k in order to get $1k, what’s the deal?

So … always remember this: only half of the truth means really nothing.

When you see such figures, just pretend you didn’t see them and don’t let your buying/joining decision be influenced by such earning claims. Or ask upfront the customers support for the HIDDEN COSTS that are required and that include the MARKETING BUDGET that usually someone needs to spend in order to achieve that impressive figure.

To Your Success,
Adrian Jock

Get the Whole Truth About Earning Claims

Sometimes I think that if you’re asking the question, there must be something about the company or opportunity that makes you uncomfortable. If that’s the case, no matter what answer you get, it might be best to just move on and find something that doesn’t raise issues for you.

But in many cases, starting a new business or online job is just outside our comfort zone and asking the question can provide a bit of a reassurance.

Here are some things to keep in mind when looking for online opportunities:

• Legitimate companies sell a tangible product or service.
• Beware of promises of earning large sums of money in a short amount of time. Get rich schemes and scams abound.
• Similarly, be cautious about opportunities and jobs that promise that you don’t have to do a thing. You’ll have to work to make money.
• You should never pay to get a job. A business opportunity will likely have start up costs, but don’t send money or provide bank or credit card information before you’re sure the company is legitimate and that you want to move ahead with the opportunity. Legitimate opportunities will explain exactly what you get for your money and almost always have a product return policy.
• Legitimate companies provide full contact information including a physical address and a phone number. They will also name their management team.
• Use the Better Business Bureau and FTC’s websites as well as other online resources to search for information about the company and its leaders. But also be aware that on some websites it can be difficult to sort through accusations made by people who simply failed at a legitimate business vs. real concerns about schemes and scams. It’s best to use several sources for information and…
• … Don’t forget to use your common sense!

There are many real, legitimate opportunities to work from home and make money online. It’s good to be cautious and ask a lot of questions before signing up for anything, but don’t let fear paralyze you. Research completely, make sure you feel absolutely comfortable with the company and its products or services, and be prepared to put in the work necessary for success. Be careful out there!

Internet FAQ: Is It a Scam?

If you have not yet made the attempt to promote your business to your subscribers, or you feel in the wrong when you do, it’s time to overcome your fear of selling to your list so you can make more money. And here’s just the help you need to learn how to grow your list, reduce your workload, and boost your income.

Grab the brand new Email Marketing Sweetie guide

You’ll get access to:

• 4 Succinct and Easy-to-Follow Training Guides with Complimentary Audios that will help you start making big changes in your email marketing.
• 4 Practical Assignments: To help you immediately apply what you learn to your business.
• Bonus Checklists, Idea Sheets, and Yearly Email Planner: These easy-to-reference printables will keep you on task when it comes to building your list, and help you take that all important action step.
• Bonus Audio & Transcript on Confidently Selling to Your List: A 60-minute interview with Alice Seba where she gives you the scoop on the most frequently asked questions about starting and growing a profitable email list.
• Bonus Opt-in Template & Complete Instructions: A fully customizable opt-in page template to help you start building targeted lists.

A few email marketing tips:

If you have not yet made the attempt to promote your business to your subscribers, don’t act hastily by inundating them with an onslaught of email promotions. Start out slow and test the waters first. An initial email letting them know you will be sending them valuable offers will open the lines of communication and lessen the shock value of advertisements appearing in their inboxes. This is an opportunity to sell yourself and your business while gaining their trust before the “sales” even begin. Most of your list will respond favorably, but you will likely lose some subscribers. But that’s okay because those that opt-out weren’t likely to become customers anyway.

Once your list knows what to expect, you can begin the actual task of promoting. That does not mean to send them multiple offers on a daily basis until they exile your address to the world of SPAM. However, it does mean that you will have to stay on top of contacting your list and make a point of doing so frequently enough to stay current and fresh in their minds without filling their inboxes with clutter.

It is also important to maintain a balance between content-driven emails and those containing promotions. Selling to your list requires a delicate balance. Alternate between information and advertising. You want to remain to be a voice your subscribers can trust without becoming too sales-driven and you also want to make sure your advertisements are clear without getting lost in your content.

Internet FAQ: How Do I Get More Traffic?

The goal of Scentsy’s “Contribute 2009″ campaign is “to inspire 100,000 people to pledge to spend an extra $50 at locally owned small businesses on October 12, 2009.” And they expect a ripple effect that will multiply the benefit. According to the American Independent Business Alliance, when you purchase from a locally owned business rather than a national chain, more of that money goes back into your local community.

Participate and show your support for your local small businesses. Learn more and sign the “Contribute 2009″ pledge at http://www.scentsycontribute.org/. Spread the word and encourage others to join in.

Scentsy Helps Small Businesses and You Can Too

“Folks, recruiting is a one on one activity that is accomplished after LISTENING. Your status update is not the place to broadcast your opportunity to the world. If you really want to recruit people through social media, build relationships and find people that actually need what you have to offer. Then share your opportunity privately, in a way that meets the needs of the prospect.”

From Annoying Facebook-ers, Direct Sales Style

Being social and personable, and not all business, will help you build lasting relationships that can benefit your business in many ways.

Admittedly, I struggle a bit with mixing personal with business. I don’t share a whole lot of my personal life online. But I think it’s very possible to be sociable without being too personal, which is my goal. It’s a little like how I get to know people in real life. Perhaps we meet at a social function or our kids’ school and exchange small talk at first. Later when we see each other again we ask about the kids and work. We find we have some interests in common and we decide to meet for coffee. A relationship develops. When it’s just the two of us, we share more personal stories and information.

Whether you choose to be more or less personal in your interactions, social media can be a powerful tool for online direct sales recruiting. But as Jennifer points out, you don’t want to become the person that everyone tries to avoid. It’s extremely easy to un-follow, un-friend, and block spammers and other annoying people in Facebook, Twitter, and the like. Be careful not to push people away by doing nothing but blasting your business offers.
