Why Do You Do What You Do?

2008-05-03T20:15:00.003+12:00

This topic is a favorite of mine. I'm about to share with you a very, very vital (yet overlooked) technique that never fails. That’s right. NEVER fails. I always stress this technique when I’m coaching new Home Business Owners and Entrepreneurs. Works like a charm.

So let’s dive in…

In today's society we often put a lot of emphasis on HOW things are done. Present a plan with all kinds of goals to the board of directors of any company and surely they will ask you how you suppose those goals will be met. Apply for a mortgage and you will be asked to show how you plan to pay it off. Give a professor the correct answer to a complex question and chances are you'll be asked how you arrived at your conclusion.

The HOW is often so predominant that the WHY is sometimes completely forgotten, as if the WHY is of less importance. Nothing could be further from the truth. WHY you want something is infinitely more important than HOW you think you're going to achieve it.

Did you get all that?

If you’re reading this post today, chances are you’re a Home Business Owner and Entrepreneur and there is a reason WHY? But do you know the reason WHY??

I hope you do…

But if you don’t (and most don’t), then it’s time you found out. If you’re not achieving the results you would like to be achieving in your Home Business enterprise, chances are very good that this is why (no pun intended).

Stay with me now. It’s gut check time…

To find out what you’re WHY is may just be as simple as identifying what it is that you want, right? Everybody knows what they want, right?

Wrong…

It's a bit more challenging than one would think. Ask an adult to write down everything they want on a list with a minimum of 10 items and you will find that for most it turns out to be quite difficult.

Stating that you want a certain amount of money, want to quit working or just want a bigger car than your neighbor can cause people to experience discomfort. After all, it may make them appear greedy or lazy and that's not generally considered positive. So they try to come up with something that's socially acceptable and in doing so, make what they want subject to the opinions of others. Not good.

And, here comes the interesting part…

Kids on the other hand have no problem here. They'll come up with 10 items and more in no time, listing things you didn't even know exist. They don't worry about what others may think of it, whether it makes them look greedy, lazy or whatever. All they know is that they want it. Fascinating when you think about.

You see, kids have not yet been brainwashed or conditioned into thinking that they can’t have certain things. They just assume they can have anything they want, right?

And so can you. You just may not realize it yet.

Here’s a very effective exercise for you that will really bring to light exactly what it is that you want in life so you can pin point your WHY.

Chances are you've never done this...

Figure out what it is that you DON’T want first and what you do want will become crystal clear. This is a technique called “clarity through contrast” and it basically states that when you observe what it is that you don’t want in life it then it delivers clarity which makes it clear what you do want.

Easy enough right? Now, the hard part…

Write it down now. Make a list of the things you DON’T want in life. It will only take you a few minutes and it’s actually a pretty fun exercise because when you actually come to terms with what you DON’T want it becomes clear what you DO want. The peace of mind you will experience by being clear is just, well…you’ll see.

After you’ve identified what it is you want, then you get to your all important WHY.

So why would you want all those things? Again, kids have the upper hand here. They'll be quick to point out why they want it all: mostly the fun they will have and the popularity it will give them. Ask an adult why they want something and you'll enjoy watching the expression on their face. You'll see them searching for an answer.

Why would you want to be rich? Why would you want to quit working to have your own business? What would you do if you no longer had to go to a job every day? You may decide you want a bigger house than anyone in your family before you ever had.

But what does that do for you? Would you sleep better? Would it make your life better? Would it make you happier? Whatever it is, it's critical that you know.

Exactly HOW you plan to achieve your success is far less important, especially early on. Too much focus on the HOW early in the process can have a devastating effect. It could paralyze you. I call it "analysis paralysis."

If your financial situation is so bad that you're actually below broke then achieving financial independence can seem so far fetched that reaching it appears impossible. You might sell yourself on the idea that it's so far out of reach that you couldn't possibly make it happen in this lifetime. As much as that may seem true at the time, it doesn't have to become your reality. Don’t be sold.

However, in order to get there you will probably have to overcome some serious hurdles. And for that to happen, you need a reason to get up and take the necessary action. That reason needs to be strong enough to pull you through the tough times that inevitably will come. That reason is your WHY.

History is packed with unbelievable stories of accomplishment. People facing seemingly insurmountable odds who overcame obstacles you wouldn't believe. Individuals with relentless determination who decided to push on in situations where most people would give up.

Why is that so many people throw in the towel when things don't go their way and only a small number of people seem to persevere?

It's not because they are genetically stronger and it's not because they have been dealt a better hand in life. What sets them apart is their WHY. That's what keeps them in the game. Their WHY is so strong that whatever gets in their way, they will find a way to deal with it. They don't have all the answers, but what they do have is an inner conviction that they can and will find the answers.

...And they are crystal clear about what they want.

Nailing down your WHY is one of the most powerful ways to improve your chances of success with your home business. So make sure that you know what your WHY is. Find it and refine it over and over again. Make it so strong that achieving it becomes an absolute must for you and the HOW will absolutely reveal itself to you over time. Trust me.

Take action.

P.S. Don’t forget your homework assignment. Make a list of the things you DON'T want and you will instantly see what you DO want. Your WHY will appear right before your eyes. Don’t take this assignment lightly. I’ve done this many times and it is quite dramatic what your new found clarity will bring you.

Thank you for visiting again. Have a Profitable Day. :D

How To Monetize Your Traffic So You Get The Most Out Of It

2008-04-16T21:13:00.000+12:00

Establishing your own E-commerce site is not like what it used to be. There are thousands of competition that is all too willing to get a bigger share of the pie. Every scheme and method you can find to augment your sales would be very beneficial.

We have got to admit to ourselves. Most of us are into it for the money. We are not going to waste our time and effort just for the fun of it. Many sites would not wait until hell freezes over just to see their profits. While there are some who takes things lightly there are always those who would rather see profit any given day.

It is common knowledge that without traffic we have no business. Like any business, without any customers you don't get sales. Traffic represents all the people that gets a chance to see what you have to offer. The more people who see your products the more people there would be to buy them.

Nobody puts up an E-commerce site that doesn't expect profit. We have a startup capital that needs to be regained. With a consistent traffic, we at least have a fighting chance to achieve that probability. Monetizing your traffic would optimize your chances of making the best out of it.
Making Money out of your Traffic.

The best and most proven method of making a profit out of your traffic is using advertising. The internet generates hundreds of thousands upon hundred of thousands of traffic everyday. Most of them are searching for something. While some are just looking for information there is also a good percentage that is looking for something that they need.

The internet has proven to be a very reliable source in finding what was deemed to be a very unsearchable product. The internet has made the world a smaller place; you can advertise a product from the depths of Istanbul and still find a buyer from the center of Philadelphia.
Generating traffic is not an easy task. You have to contend with a great number of sites to generate a good number of traffic flow. But if done successfully this could open up a Pandora抯 Box of possibilities. One of the benefits is monetizing your traffic flow.

So, to get to the core of it the more traffic you generate the more likely you are considered as a desirable, desirable, in a sense that a good traffic flowing site is easily convertible to profit. Basically traffic equals profit. Advertising is the name of the game; with the good advertising scheme you can use your traffic flow to your advantage.

When you have good traffic you have a good number of potential customers, customers that are willing to pour money into your coffers. Other than that these are also traffic that can be redirected to sponsored links that are willing to pay you for a sizeable portion of the traffic that you have generated.

This scheme is called Pay-per-click? With every click a visitor of your site makes on an advertised link you will be paid. The more traffic you generate and the more clicks that happens would spell to more profits.

Here's Why Paying For Your Traffic Is A Smart Move

2008-04-16T18:06:00.002+12:00

Here are so many success stories you will hear about businesses making it good in the internet. The troubling thing is, there are maybe a tenfold or even a hundredfold of stories contradictory to theirs. Many have unsuccessfully launched a business enterprise that is internet based but only a handful shall succeed.

Is this through luck? That is even more remote. It takes good business sense and a lot of help and team effort. Most importantly, it is the eagerness to succeed and the determination to learn and the willingness to invest in a lot of hard work and some money.

The Very Basic
Like Neo, traffic is the One? Without traffic, all your effort would just go to waste. Every business needs customers, without them you wouldn't have anyone to sell your products to. In the internet world traffic is the walk in customer. The more traffic you have the more people would be able to sell your products to.

But like any business that's in every corner building or in the mall, not everyone that goes in will buy, but the greater of number that do come in to browse your merchandise, the greater number of people that will buy your products. It is a simple and known fact.

But, how do you get traffic, traffic large enough that could make a small percentage of eventual buyers enough to make a good profit. Many big companies generate traffic of tens of thousands a day and a measly ten to fifteen percent actually buys, but that small percentage is enough to provide them with good business.

Many of these success stories get their traffic from paying others. Yes that's right; you have to spend money to make money. Advertising is the key. The more people that knows that your site exists; the more people would of course go to your site, that's common sense.

While there are many ways that can get you advertising for free, this do not generate the same high volume as those methods that are getting paid. These paid advertisements include advertising schemes by Google and Yahoo.

The Value of Searches
The search and will be the easiest and fastest medium in finding what a person needs in the internet. Search engines have been very popular because they provide a vital service to many people. They are free and easy to use. With this popularity, they get many visitors and clicks that they are the most common sites that people go to. It is easy to understand why so many companies would pay to advertise with these search engines.

Search engines provide information to the millions of users that they have each day. They provide links to many sites that a user may be looking for. If your sites link pop up in the high ranks of the search results page, you get a great chance that they will go to your site. While search engine optimization is a cheaper and low cost way to get your site a high rank, paying for advertisements will ensure that you will be on the top ranks.

When you pay for your advertisements, it is like paying for your traffic. This may sound like not such a good idea, but the payoffs would tell a different story. When you pay for your traffic, you are guaranteed of a consistent traffic flow to your site. You will never go with an empty sales day.

Paying for your Traffic
Usually, you will be charged with the number of hits a link gets when your ads is clicked, this is called pay per click. For some search engines, you will be charged with the number of times your ad shows up when a certain keyword or keyword phrase is searched. It is imperative that you have good keyword content in your ad. There are many tools that aid you in using the right keyword for the right moment.

All the money you spend in paying for your traffic will not be for naught. You will get an impressive boost in traffic which will also result to a great boost in your sales figures. Paying for your traffic would be a really good idea and you will get all the benefits it has to offer.

Treat of the Week - How to Get "More" Out of your Ad Copy!!

2008-02-08T20:10:00.000+13:00

You could bullet or indent your benefits in your
ad copy. Most people won't read the whole ad
copy, so make your product’s benefits stand out
and you won't lose the sales from all the skimmers.
You can also indent other things like your guarantee,
postscripts, testimonials, closing, etc.

You could change the size of your text in your
ad copy. You want to make your text large enough
so it's not hard to read. You also want your headline
and major points to be larger so they will stand out.
You could also use more space in between important
parts of your ad copy to make them stand out.

You could raise or lower the price in your ad
copy. A higher price could increase the perceived
value of your product and a lower price could
lessen your product's value. Either way, you need to
test which price will pull the most orders. Another
idea would be to use an odd number like $19.46
instead of $19.99, $19.95 or $19.97. It makes it
look like there is a specific reason you priced it like
that.

You could add proof of results in your ad copy.
You should include testimonials, endorsements and
factual statistics to prove your product's claims. You
should only publish statements that are believable
and have specific results. For example, here is a
good line from a testimonial, “I increased my sales
by 678%!"

You could add special offers in your ad copy.
It's usually easier to sell the offer than the product.
You could use discounts, free bonuses, volume
sales, etc. For example, you could say, "You'll get
5 bonuses when you order by Aug 24, 2002!"
Another example, "Buy one, get the second one
half price off.”

You should eliminate the hard-to-understand
jargon on your ad copy. Unless your product calls
for technical words, you want your ad to be read
without people pulling out a dictionary. If you need
to use a word your target audience might not under-
stand, define it or use an example to help them
understand it.

When you ask someone to sign up to receive a
freebie, don't ask for really personal information.
This is a fast way to lose a potential prospect. For
example, if you ask them for information they want
to keep personal, they might not want sign up.
Another example, if you ask for too much inform-
ation, they may not have the time or patience to fill
it all out.

What are you waiting for, Apply those techniques above
and start generate more money out of your Ad now!!

Have a Profitable day guys :)

9. Remind your visitors that you're human not just
a web site. You could publish information on your
family life, a picture of yourself , a profile, etc.

10. Provide a "Contact Page" on your web site.

Increase Your ROI....

2008-01-22T00:48:00.000+13:00

Last week, i posted an article about ROI (Return On Investment, newbies:)]. This post i will go abit further and talk about how to Increase your ROI. Hope this will help you abit:)

********************************************************************************
Disclaimer: The Following Article doesn't guarantee you to profit in any fashion even though you follow the actions stated in the article. It's just Another Complete 3rd Party Opinion, You are responsible for making your choice in life :)
*********************************************************************************

Are You Really Measuring for Return on Investment (ROI) with Search Engine Optimization?

Puzzling studies and reports suggest that businesses are missing out when it comes to ROI, including a whole host of metrics that should confirm or shape search engine marketing strategies.

You can’t accomplish much if you’re not even implementing SEO the right way. We’ve seen web site after web site that includes scores of individual keywords in the META keyword set (that many search engines ignore anyway). The SEO team not only used the wrong individual keywords (search phrases are better), but they didn’t bother to include keywords in the page title or description. And, of course, they didn’t think it was worth their time to focus on multiple pages– not just the homepage.

Hint: If you’re selling dinnerware, “laundry” probably shouldn’t be one of your keywords.

A WebTrends report cited in an eMarketer in 2004 showed the following ROI:

Using Complete ROI analysis35.4%
Click-through rates only24.2%
Conversion metrics18.7%
Don't measure21.7%

Barely one third figured a thorough ROI analysis was worth the effort.

More than 80% of companies surveyed are dissatisfied with their “ability to benchmark their marketing programs,” according to “Measures + Metrics: Assessing Marketing Value + Impact,” a stunning report based on a 2004 survey by the CMO Council, a Palo Alto, California-based organization. The CMO Council represents senior marketing and brand decision-makers in the global technology industry.

“Less than 20% have developed any meaningful and comprehensive measures and metrics for their marketing organizations,” the report said.

It’s possible, Fathom SEO believes, that companies just settle for what’s easiest. If getting high rankings offers enough satisfaction, that’s where the measurement ends. Or, maybe a business will look at total traffic (maybe even unique visitor trends). With PPC, they’re apt to take up Google’s offer and post an ad within 15 minutes, cranking out the common reports Google offers.

Businesses have a whole host of metrics that can serve them as long as the data doesn’t fly over their heads.

Aligning SEM with Corporate Marketing Strategies
You should start by knowing how your SEM goals relate to your corporate marketing strategy. Which of the following (or more) do you want to accomplish?
•Generate leads
•Sell online
•Build brands
•Grab more market share

Conversions
You absolutely must track pages that allow visitors to take some kind of action, including:

•Requesting a quote
•Filling out a contact form
•Placing an order
•Registering for a newsletter
•Ordering a catalog

Establishing Your Metrics
Determine which of the following will be the metrics that will mean the most to you:
•Online sales (broken down by category)
•Repeat visits
•Profits on sales
•Customer satisfaction
•Length of visits
•Cost per click (CPC)
•Click-through rate (CTR)
•Cost per conversion (CPC).

Get plugged into online consumers’ behavior patterns.

For example, studies show that consumers start researching products online several weeks (12 weeks in some business-to business scenarios) before they make a purchase – often offline. Enquiro, based in Kelowna, BC, Canada, in 2004 found that 68.3% of those surveyed used search engines for “consideration or research.” The results are detailed in Enquiro’s “Inside the Mind of a Searcher” research report that looks at issues including four distinct types of searchers and the frequency with which people search during the buying process.

ROI should be an integral part of any search engine optimization strategy, not something that sounds foreign. Make it work for your business.

How to Calculate ROI (Return on Investment)

2008-01-17T16:13:00.000+13:00

ROI (Return on Investment) is probably the most important
calculation one needs to make to ensure the long-term viability
of their business. It is not enough to build in a profit margin
on the product or service being offered. One must track with
proficiency the amount of dollars being invested into attracting
sales and how much ROI those dollars put back into the business.
If the investment meets too little return, a product line is
doomed to fail in the long-term.

THE BASIC ROI PERCENTAGE CALCULATION

Many experts seem to agree, “calculating an accurate return on
investment (ROI) is not an easy thing to do.”

I do not intend to give you a thorough analysis of the ROI
calculation process. Calculating an accurate ROI is hard to do,
but explaining the full scope of ROI calculations in less than
1000 words is far more difficult.

As such, this article is only intended to introduce you to the
basic concepts behind ROI calculations. Here is a very basic
equation for calculating the ROI:

ROI = [(Payback - Investment)/Investment)]*100

Your payback is actually the total amount of money earned from
your investment in your company. Investment relates to the
amount of resources put into generating the given payback.

You should run ROI calculations on both monthly and yearly
timelines.

IMPROPER CALCULATIONS BY MANY SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS

The actual amount of investment into a business is often
misunderstood by the business owner. As a result, true ROI
calculations for most small businesses are skewed.

Most small business owners make their mistake in this most
necessary calculation, because they do not properly value their
own time. Please note that when I previously defined
“investment”, I stated that it relates to the “amount of
resources put into generating the payback.”

Indeed, “resources” includes cash money. But, it also includes
“human resources” or “time”.

If most small business owners would value their hours at the
minimum wage, and calculate their time into the investment
equation, they would soon realize that their small business is
running in the red!

Some small business owners will finally run ROI calculations
including the human resources, and suddenly realize that they
could make more money working a job. If the small business owner
has been running their business for a really long time,
struggling to make ends meet, they might see this calculation
and close their doors once and for all.

PLEASE DON’T LET ME DISCOURAGE YOU

I do not share this revelation with you so that you will close
your business down. Quite to the contrary. I share this with you
so that you can see the big picture and start running your
business in a way that will actually generate a real profit for
you and your business.

If you are within the first two years or five years of the start
of your business, then running in the red should not be thought
of as a bad thing. However, if you are ten years into your
business and earning less than minimum wage from your business,
there is a serious problem afoot that needs to be addressed
immediately.

STARTING OUT

When you are just beginning your own business, you have plenty
of time on your hands. This is the reason why most small
business owners do not properly count their time in the ROI
equation. They just look at cash expenditures and incoming
monies, and they are satisfied with that calculation.

It is often said that people generate the kind of results that
they believe they can achieve or the kind that they want to
achieve. Seeing the goal is the first step to achieving the
goal. Expectations will always bring results equal to the
expectation.

Having been down the business startup path before myself, I too
understand the desire to calculate ROI without consideration to
the time invested in the enterprise.

However, I also understand the importance of placing a value on
my time and working that into my final numbers.

In the beginning, I ran two types of ROI calculations: all
resources exempting my time, AND all resources including my time.

Of course, I actually set a higher expectation for my own income
level. First, I had decided on ten dollars an hour for my time.
Later, I adjusted that amount upward.

Starting out, even though I ran two versions of my ROI
calculations, I relied first on my resource excluding my own
time. Once I had achieved this goal, then I refocused my
attention to reaching the ROI which took into account my own
time.

Now, that time has passed, I can go back and look at my yearly
ROI and see that I have earned enough cash to pay for those
early days of famine.

THE SECRET OF TURNING ROI CALCULATIONS INTO SUCCESS

Every step in your business startup is a calculated guess as to
what you believe you can achieve.

Measuring your results is essential to making your business
profitable. ROI measurements are imperative to measuring and
understanding the results you are achieving with your new or
existing business.

Take into account all factors relating to the profitability of
your business and don’t smudge on the facts to make it seem more
profitable than it really is. It is important to approach your
business and your business results with absolute honesty. Be
honest with yourself and face the facts of your task.

An honest examination of your business at regular intervals will
help you get on and stay on track to keep the doors of your
business open. You will thank yourself later.

Good Luck in 08 guys!

any responsibility for any liabilities resulting from
the actions of any parties involved.

1 Turn your ad into an article. It could be a story,
or how-to article. This will lead readers into your ad
without them knowing it's an ad. They'll already be
interested when they get to your sales pitch. For
example, you could start your ad, “Once upon a time…”
or “Free Report! How to....”.

2 You could upsell to your customers. When they're
at your order page, tell them about a few extra related
products you have for sale. They could just add it to
their original order. For example, you could say, "Our
new e-book would make a nice edition to the report.
Just click here to add it to your order. It's only $15
more."

3 Tell your customers if they refer four customers to
your web site, they will receive a full rebate of their
purchase price. This will turn one sale into three sales.
You could also offer them other things in return for
referrals like free e-books, free software, coupons,
discounts, etc.

4 When you sell a product, give your customers the
option of joining an affiliate program so they can make
commissions selling your product. This will multiply
the sale you just made. For example, just imagine how
many sales you could have with 1000 affiliates selling
for you. It could eliminate ever buying any paid
advertising again!

5 Use the phrase "invest in our product" instead of
the words “buy” or “purchase”. This makes prospects
feel they're investing in their future if they buy. You
could also tell people how much others have got
back from your product by publishing testimonials
of people who have made money or reaped the
benefits.

6 Use logos and slogans for your business. They
make it easier for people to remember and identify
your business. For example, how many times have
you had a problem and the first thing that popped into
your mind is some business’ logo or slogan. It's
almost like an automatic reaction.

7 When you ship out or deliver your product, include
a coupon for other related products you sell in the
package. This will attract them to buy more products
from you. For example, haven't you ever bought a
product and saw an ad or flyer inside the package
that made you want to buy another product?

8 Send your customers a catalog of add-on products
for the original product they purchased. This could be
upgrades, special services, attachments, etc. If they
like your product, they will buy the extra add-ons.
For example, if you were selling computers, you could
offer software, extended warranties, printer paper, etc.

9 Use the word "fast" in your ad. People want fast
results, fast delivery, fast ordering, etc. Nowadays,
we usually value our time more than our money.
For example, you could say, "Our product works
fast!" Another example, "Our product comes with
fast shipping options."

10 Send your customers free products with their
product package. The freebies should have your ad
printed on them. They could be bumper stickers, ball
caps, T-shirts, etc. This will allow other people to see
your ad and order. The freebies could also be trials
and samples of other products and services you
sell.

11 Use the word "guaranteed" in your ad. People
want to be assured they are not risking their hard-
earned money buying your product. For example, you
could say, "Our product comes with a 90-day money-
back guarantee!" Another example would be, "Don't
forget our product comes with a lifetime guarantee!"

12 Use the word "limited" in your ad. People want
to own or receive things that are exclusive or rare
because they are considered to be more valuable.
For example, you could say, "This special edition
will be limited to the first 500 who order!" Another
example would be, "Order before (date) to get
this limited version of our e-book!"

13 Use the word "easy/simple" in your ad. People
want easy ordering, easy instructions, easy to use,
easy payments, etc. For example, you could say,
"It's the easiest way to lose weight!" Another example
would be, "It's easy to order - just click here and fill
out your information!"

14 Use the word "testimonial" in your ad. People
want to see believable proof before they buy your
product. It should be reputable and specific proof.
For example, you could say, "Check the hundreds
of testimonials we have received!" Another example
would be, "All these testimonials below were given
voluntarily without payment!"

15 Use the words "discount/sale" in your ad. People
want to find bargains. They could be rebates, one
time sales, percentage offers, get-one-free offers, etc.
For example, you could say, "Get a 50% rebate if you
order before (date)!" Another example would be,
"Order before our buy-one-get-one-free sale ends!"

16 Use the word "free" in your ad. People want free
incentives before they do business with you. They
could be free books, accessories, services, etc. For
example, you could say. " Free shipping with every
order over $50!" Another example would be,
"Order within the next 5 minutes to get 3 extra
bonuses free!"

17 Include emotional words in your advertisements.
Use ones like love, security, relief, freedom, happy,
satisfaction, fun, etc. For example, you could say in
your ad, "Imagine meeting the love of your life and
feeling the pleasure of happiness. You'll have the
security of knowing you won't be alone any more."

18 Use the word "important" in your ad. People do
not want to miss important information that could
affect their lives. People will stop and take notice.
For example, your headline could read, "Important
Warning!...” Another example could be, "Important!
Stop And Take Notice!..."

19 Use the word "new" in your ad. People want
new products or services that will improve their lives
like new information, tastes, technology, results, etc.
For example, you could say, "Learn a new revolution-
ary way to lose weight!” Another example would be,
“New! Just Released!..."

20 Show your prospects how much enthusiasm
you have for your product and business. If you're
convincing enough, they will be enthusiastic too.
For example, you could say, "I'm so EXCITED
about our new product!” Another example would
be, "I can't wait for you to experience these benefits!"

21 Make copies of your web site in many different
languages. This'll allow foreign speaking people to
read your web site and advertisements. For example,
if one of your visitors couldn't read English, would
they buy from you? It would be very unlikely. You
could just have all the languages of your web site listed
on your home page so they could click on the one
they could read.

22 Use a lot of headlines on your web site and e-zine.
Some types of headlines are free offers, questions,
problem solvers, sales, and statistics. For example,
"Free E-book", "Want To Get Out Of Debt?", "Free
Article", etc. You could also turn the headlines into
graphics to make them look more professional.

23 You could end your ad copy with a discounted
price. Just list your regular price and then offer a
discounted price off the order ‘right now’. You could
also offer a rebate that takes effect instantly. For
example, you could say, "Instead of paying $99, you
could order now and get an instant rebate of $20 -
you only pay $79!"

24 You could end your ad copy with a free sample
or trial of your product. If your ad didn't attract them
to buy, maybe a free sample or trial would. If
you were selling an e-book, you could give them a
free sample at the end of your ad copy. For example,
you could say, "If you're still not sure about ordering,
download a FREE sample chapter!"

25 Sell a few back-end products that are not related
to your main product but are needed by all humans.
Every customer that buys from you is human. Think
about it - everyone eats, right? For example, you
could say, "Free Bonus 1# A Free $30 Dollar Coupon
To The Restaurant Of Your Choice!"

26 Use the words "you/your" in your ad. People want
to know that you are talking to them. This'll make them
feel important and attract them to read the whole ad.
For example, you could say, "You could be the winner
in our next contest!" Another example would be, "You
are experiencing the benefits already, aren't you?"

27 Offer daily or weekly visitor bonuses. This will
increase your repeat traffic and sales because your
visitors will visit regularly to get the visitor bonuses.
For example, you could say, "Every week I will be
giving away a new e-book to my web site visitors.
Sign up to be reminded when it's ready each week."

28 Make your visitors curious about your product
by telling them they need to sign up to get into a
password protected site to read the rest of the ad.
This will give your product extra perceived value
because it is so well guarded. Just like a diamond in
a bank vault.

29 Remember the little things about your web pages
really count. Include the title of your site at the top
right corner, a description about your site, etc. For
example, if I visited your web site and didn’t know
or understand what it was all about, I would probably
leave right away.

30 Turn your banner ad into a trivia question. Post
the question on the banner and tell readers they can
win a prize if they answer the question at your site.
People love trivia because it makes them feel smart
when they get the right answer. The prize is just an
extra incentive for them to click on your banner.

31 Motivate people to buy your product. Tell them
positive things. For example, you could say, "You can
now reach your goals and change your life if you buy
our product.” If you come across positive in your ad
copy, they will become positive about reaching their
goals using your product.

32 Increase your ratio of visitors who purchase your
product(s). You could change your headline, offer a
stronger guarantee, add testimonials, etc. For
example, one week you could have your headline say,
"How To Lose 5 Pounds In Two Days!" and the
next week use, "Lose 5 Pounds In Only 48 Hours!"
Just see which one pulls more orders per visitors.

33 Get your sales letters and web site evaluated for
free. Visit business discussion boards and ask other
participants to evaluate them. Don't get discouraged
if someone gives you a lot of negative feedback
about your web site. Most people are only trying to
help you. Take the criticism constructively.

34 Personalize all your e-mail messages so they get
read. Include the recipient's name in the subject line.
This will grab people's attention quickly. For example,
wouldn't "(your name), Learn How To..." get your
attention more than just "Learn How To..."? I figured
you would say that.

35 Test different web site color themes to see which
combination will sell your product better. You can
also test the size and style of your web site text. For
example, red usually signals: stop, anger, excitement,
love, sex, fun, etc. Another example, blue usually
signals: relaxation, authority, coolness, etc.

36 Promise your readers an end result or outcome
in your ad. You must give them a solid guarantee
that your product will solve their problem. For
example, you could say, "I personally guarantee you
will get over your shyness in 10 days or less or your
money back."

37 Attract people to link to your web site. You could
offer them a discount on the products you sell or
give them free items for linking. For example, you
could say, "Get A Huge 30% Discount On Our
E-book If You Agree To Link To Our Web Site For
At Least One Month!”

38 Develop your own opt-in email list by giving your
visitors a reason to give you their e-mail address.
Allow them to sign up to free items and contests. Just
get their permission to e-mail them again in the
future for other things. For example, you could
say, "Sign Up For Your Chance To Win A Color
TV!"

39 Create a "PR" web page for your business. List
information that could be considered newsworthy
for e-zines, newspapers, magazines, etc. There are
many ways to get into the media, like launching a
unusual product, donating a large amount to charity,
holding big events, etc.

40 Give your business and products credibility by
linking to web sites that have written positive stories
about your business. You could link to them right
in your product ad. For example, you could say,
"Just See What (name) Magazine Is Saying About
Our Newest E-book!"

41 Allow your visitors to decided how much they
want to pay for your product. I only recommend it
for products that don't sell or ones that hardly sell.
Tell them you'll accept offers via e-mail or your
web form. You could even accept fair barter deals
for other products and services.

42 Never assume people believe the information in
your ad copy. You need to back-up all your claims
with indisputable evidence. For example, you could
include testimonials, expert endorsements, third
party tests or studies, strong guarantees, a list of
customers, pictures of customers, etc.

43 Give your customers free shipping. If you can't
afford that, you can give free shipping to customers
who buy over a certain dollar amount to raise profits.
You could also charge other businesses for inserting
ads in your product package. This will make up for
your free shipping losses.

44 Test your web site regularly for ordering glitches,
bad links, broken graphics, etc. Those types of
errors will make your business look unprofessional.
If your visitors can't order, navigate to where they
want to go or see pictures of your product, they likely
won't revisit or order.

45 Build a professional looking web site even if you
have a small budget. You could use free graphics,
designs, list servers and other tools offered online.
Just go to your search engine or web directory of
choice and type in "free (what you want)" and you
will usually find it.

46 Use a lot of sub-headlines on your web site. This
will hold people’s attention and keep them at your
web site longer. Sometimes people don't have time
to read a whole sales letter. This will allow you to sell
to people who are skimmers. Plus it will get the
reader’s full attention at the same time.

47 Allow your prospects to choose between a retail
or wholesale price. Of course you need to make a
profit on the wholesale price. Just charge people a
monthly or yearly membership fee to always get your
products at wholesale cost. Your business would be
like the offline wholesale shopping clubs.

48 You could reward your potential customers if they
spend over a specific dollar amount. Tell them if they
spend over $100, they get a 10% discount. You
could also extend the offer over a certain period of
time and attract them to revisit your web site. For
example, you could say, "Buy Over $50 Worth Of
Merchandise Within The Next Month And Get A
20% Discount!"

49 Make your visitors feel comfortable at your web
site. Give them your main business address. Your
visitors may not trust you if you're using a P.O. Box.
If you want to make them feel really comfortable, give
them your business, home and cell phone number.
Then they will know they can get hold of you if they
need help.

50 Give your visitors a free membership to your
online club. People want to belong to something,
why not your online club? You could also give
away a free e-zine for club members only. You
could make money by offering a deluxe membership
for a monthly fee.

51 Tell your audience what kind of support they'll
get after they buy. It could be free consulting, tech
support, free servicing, etc. This may also answer
some of their buying questions ahead of time. People
don't want to buy products without knowing you
will be there to help if they have problems.

52 Make your classified ads stand out in a crowd.
Use all capital letters in the headline, divide letters
with extra spaces, add in text symbols, etc. For
example, you could write, "WIN a VACATION to
Las Vegas!" Another example would be, "Win A ($)
Trip To Las Vegas!"

53 Spice up your web site's wording by using plenty
of adjectives. It gives your visitors a clearer vision of
what you're explaining or describing to them. For
example, if you were describing a software program
you could say, "This easy-to-use software gently
guides you through the whole set up process."

54 Don't make your banner ads look like ads. Most
people ignore banner ads. Design them to look like
content and have people click to read the rest. For
example, you could say, "How To Increase Your
Sales By 200% by Larry Dotson. To Read Click
Here!"

55 Ask people at the end of your copy why they
decided not to buy. This will give you new ideas on
how to produce ad copy that’s more profitable. Have
a web form or e-mail link in place so they can answer
you. You may find out they don't like your guarantee
or graphics. It could be anything.

56 Market your web site as a free club instead of
a web site. This'll increase your repeat visitors and
sales because people enjoy belonging to groups.
You could have a members’ message board, give
visitors' membership IDs, give them membership
graphics to place on their web sites, etc.

57 Tell your potential customers that your ordering
system is highly secure. Also reassure them that
you take every effort to protect them. People want
to feel they are safe online. They want to know that
you care about their well-being. Tell them all about
what you currently do for them to make them feel
more secure.

58 Check your web site links regularly. If people
click on a link and it doesn't work, they usually
won't risk wasting their time clicking on another one.
For example, would you revisit a web site after two
of the links you really wanted to click on didn’t
work? You probably wouldn't even bookmark the site.

59 Give visitors a positive experience when they're
at your web site. Provide them with original content
and free things. They'll tell all of their friends about it.
You could also persuade them to tell their friends
about it by starting an affiliate program. It could pay
per sale, per click or per lead.

60 Use pictures or graphics on your web site that
support the product you're selling. They could give
your visitors a clearer vision of your product, the
benefits of the product, people's emotion when they
own the product, etc. You could also use ‘before’ and
‘after’ pictures.

61 Use a handwritten letter on your ad copy instead
of text. Write the ad on a piece of paper, scan it and
publish the ad on your web page. Adding a personal
touch will always increase your sales. If you don't
want to write the whole letter by hand, you could just
put your signature at the end.

62 Publish a list of famous and respected customers
who have bought from you on your ad copy. People
will think that if these people bought from you, they
should also trust your business and purchase your
products. Make sure to get their permission first.
For example, you could say, “Here is a list of some
of our most valued customers:…”

63 Show ‘before’ and ‘after’ photos for your products
on your web page copy. Show the problem picture
and then beside it, show the picture of how the
problem was resolved when they used your product.
This will give your prospects a clearer mental image
of the possible benefits of using your product.

64 Include an article or review which has been written
about you or your business with your ad copy. This
will show people that your business is respected and
will increase your credibility. You could include the
full review or an excerpt of it.

65 When you offer free bonuses in your ad copy, also
list the dollar value beside each bonus. People will
feel they're getting a good deal and it will increase the
value of your product. For example, you could say
"Bonus 1# Free Internet Advertising E-book Valued at
$47!"

66 Hire a famous person to endorse your product or
service. Make sure the person is well-known to your
target audience. Include their picture and statements
in your ad copy. Using a picture endorsement is
more powerful because it shows the endorser
likes your product enough to show his or her face.

67 Include your own picture in your ad copy. This
will show people that you're not hiding behind your
ad copy and will increase their trust. Also, include
your contact information below the picture and a
brief statement or quote. If you feel adventurous, you
could include an online audio sound bite or video
clip of yourself.

68 Provide a privacy statement and all your contact
information on every page of your web site. This'll
persuade your visitors and prospects to trust you.
For example, if your contact information was only
on your home page and they had a question about
ordering one of your products on another page, they
might just get frustrated and leave your web site.

69 Ask your potential customers plenty of ‘yes’ and
‘no’ questions in your ad copy. The questions should
remind them of their problem and make them think
about what will happen if they don't purchase your
product. For example, you could say, "Do you want
to get out of debt?” “Do you want to have financial
security?"

70 Tell your potential customers they will receive a
free prize if they find the five words in your ad copy
that are misspelled or spelled backwards. The longer
you can keep someone reading your copy, the greater
chance of them purchasing. You could also have them
find hidden links, hidden graphics, etc.

71 Give your prospects extra incentives so they will
order quicker. It could be free shipping, a faster
shipping option, free gift-wrapping, etc. For example,
you could say, "Free gift-wrapping to the first 1000
people who order." Another example, "Free shipping
to anyone who orders before (date)."

72 Make your small business look big on the world
wide web. Design your web site using professional
graphics, ordering systems, organized layouts, etc.
For example, on the web no one really knows if you’re
a one-man business or huge corporation, unless you
tell them. Just design your web site to look
professional.

73 Attract a lot more customers by giving them clear
ordering instructions. Give them all the information
they need so they can complete their order easily.
For example, you could say, "Please fill out all of the
order form below. We accept all major credit cards
and online checks. Please click the "Order" button
only once. You don't want to get double charged."

74 Give your customers buying incentives so they'll
make repeat purchases. Offer them discounts, free
gifts, bonus points, etc. For example, if you give your
customers points every time they buy something,
they will start collecting them and buy more things.
They will want to save up enough points to get a free
product.

75 Tell people about your site whenever you get a
chance. Those people will tell other people and so
on. It's a cheap way to multiply your advertising.
For example, if you’re at a grocery store, mention it
to people you talk to; the check clerk, the bag boy,
etc. Every little bit helps.

76 Write and send press releases for your web site.
Use strong headlines, make it newsworthy, and
tell the journalist why their readers would like it. You
could increase your chances of getting your release
read or published by communicating with editors
regularly and creating a professional friendship with
them.

77 Make your long ad copy interesting enough so
people click through to the next web page. If it's not,
they won't take the time to click and read more.
For example, you could say, "Click here to read more
and to get a top secret tip!" Another example, "Click
here to read about the 10 free bonuses!"

78 Design graphics, templates, buttons and banner
ads for other sites. Allow people to use them in
exchange for your web link on their home page. For
example, you could require the users to say on their
web site, "These graphics were made possible by
(your business name and web site address)."

79 You could hold a special $1 sale for your potential
customers. They'll come to your web site to buy your
product for only a dollar, but may buy other products.
For example, you could sell an e-book for one dollar and
have ads near it for other e-books you sell for, say, $27.

80 Start an e-zine for your web site. When people
read each issue they'll be reminded to revisit your
web site. They'll see your product ad more than
just once, which will increase your orders. You’ll need
to have at least 50% original content in it so people
don't unsubscribe because they read your information
in other e-zines.

81 Form an online community. It could be an online
message board, e-mail discussion list or chat room.
When people get involved in your community, they
will regularly return to communicate with others.
You could also invite your online community to free
"how to" classes hosted in your chat room or by
teleconference.

82 Write articles and submit them to e-zines, web
sites and magazines that accept article submissions.
Include your business information and web address
at the end of the article. You could also give the
editors extra incentives to publish your article, like
freebies, affiliate commissions, offers to publish
their article, etc.

83 Give away an electronic freebie with your ad on
it. Allow your visitors to give the freebie away as well.
This'll increase your ad exposure and attract people
to your web site at the same time. You could also
use it as a bonus for another product you sell or
as a free surprise gift for your most loyal customers.

84 Combine your products or services into one big
package deal with offerings from other businesses.
You could share a web site and advertise the pack-
age deal which would mean double the traffic. It could
be one or more business. If the business is your
competition, you would want to use a neutral product.

85 Submit your freebie to the online directories that
list your particular item or service for free. If you're
offering a free e-zine, submit it to all the free e-zine
directories on the Internet. There are free e-book
directories, web site directories, general freebie
directories, free article directories, etc.

86 Participate on message boards. Post answers to
other people's questions, ask questions and post
appropriate information. Include your signature file
at the end of all your postings. Some message boards
let you include a text link at the end of your message.
Plus you can learn great tips reading all the postings.

87 Exchange classified or sponsor ads with other
free e-zine publishers. If there is a huge subscriber
difference between e-zines, one can run more ads
to make up for it. You could also offer free items
or affiliate commissions. Another idea would be to
offer them an ad on your web site too.

88 Post your ad on free advertising areas on the
Internet. You can post it on free classified ad sites,
free for all links sites, newsgroups that allow ads,
free yellow page directories, etc. Of course all
of those areas have different rules for submissions
so you may have to structure your offer differently
each time.

89 Maximize the effectiveness of your banner ads.
Don't just use the same ad on every banner, use a
variety to attract the greatest number of clicks.
If you are hosting banner ads on your web site for
affiliate programs you have joined, you could use
a banner rotator to give each one equal exposure.

90 Make your web site load much faster by cutting
down on banner ads and using more buttons.
Button ads are also smaller and take up less space.
Also there is nothing wrong with text links. They
usually pull in more response than banner ads
because people nowadays often ignore banners.

91 Offer free advertising space to well-known and
respected companies on your web site. Sometimes
people link their business credibility to yours. If
you sell advertising this might help too. People will
see high profile ads on your web site and want
to advertise there too.

92 People have been taught all their lives to respect
people in authority. Tell your visitors that you are
the president or CEO of your business. For example,
you could sign your ad or web site, "(your name) Vice-
President of (the business)." Another example, "(your
name) Author Of The Book (title)."

93 Offer people a free telephone consultation before
they order your product. When they get to know
you personally, it could convert to more sales. You
could also use a chat room or message system on
your web site to communicate with them.

94 Test the "bill me later option" on your web site.
Most people are honest and will pay you. It is a
powerful little technique and could increase your sales.
You would just have to e-mail them a bill or charge
their credit card a few weeks later. You could offer
Cash On Delivery (COD) too.

95 Find a charity your target audience would likely
support. Tell people in your ad copy that you will
give a percentage of the profits to that charity. You
could give them a few choices of which charity their
percentage of the profits should go. Just let them
check the one they want when they order.

96 Hold a "Buy the Most Wins” contest on your web
site. Tell people each monthly winner will get their
entire purchase refunded. This will get some of your
customers to compete to get all their purchases for
free.

97 Attract visitors to your web site by offering them
a free course. You could package the course on
a follow-up autoresponder and send lessons daily.
You could offer other autoresponder courses in
your first autoresponder course to allow them to
see your message even more times. Just include
your ad in each lesson.

98 Interview people related to your industry and
get their legal permission to convert it to an article.
Promote your web site by submitting it to e-zines.
You could make it a column and interview someone
new every week. If an e-zine elects to run your
column regularly that would be free ongoing exposure.

99 Make your readers visualize they have already
bought your product in your ad. Tell them what
results they have got from it and how it makes them
feel. They'll already become emotionally attached
before they buy. For example, you could say,
"Imagine using our product to increase your sales by
600%!"

100 When you make your first sale, follow-up with the
customer. You could follow-up with a "thank you"
e-mail and include an advertisement for other products
you sell. You could follow-up every few months.
For example, you could attach or link to an e-book
catalog on all the product you sell or resell.

Finally, Blogger unlock this shit due to spam block check -_-

10 Benefits Of Submitting Articles To E-zines

2007-11-03T01:07:00.000+13:00

Alot of people was asking, put up ads on E-zines does it really work? Some company charge alot for only a few categories, and of course, results are not guaranteed. Now let me break it down for you in 10 points, you will be the judge and see if it worth your money.....

1. You'll brand your web site, business and yourself
by submitting articles to e-zines. You could include
your name, business name, your credentials, web site
address and e-mail address in your resource box.

2. You will become known as an expert on the topics
you write about. This will give you and your business
extra credibility which will help you compete against
your competition.

3. Your article might also be placed on the publisher's
home page. If they publish each issue on their home
page this will give you some extra exposure.

4. You might get extra exposure if the e-zine publisher
archives their e-zine on their site. People might want
to read the back issues before they make the decision
to subscribe.

5. You will get free advertising. This will allow you to
spend your profits on other forms of advertising. You
could buy advertisements in other e-zines that don't
publish your articles.

6. You might get extra income from people wanting to
hire you to write other articles, books, or even ask to
speak at seminars. This is a great way to multiply your
income.

7. You could allow e-zine publishers to publish your
articles in their free e-books. Since people give them
away, your advertising could multiply all over the
internet.

8. You will get your article published all over the web
when you submit it to an e-zine publisher that has a
free content directory on their web site. They'll allow
their visitors to republish your article.

9. You'll gain people's trust. If they read your article
and like it, they won't be as hesitant to buy your
product or service. You will then be able to increase
your profits.

10. You could get your article guaranteed to run in
an e-zine. You could agree to run one of their articles
in your e-zine if, in exchange, they run yours in their
e-zine. It's a win/win situation.

Hope this will help you in some way, and wish your business goes well!

Have a profitable day :)

EDC Gold is the Top Rated Internet Company

2007-10-29T23:23:00.000+13:00

When I evaluate a company, I look for these key points. Keep in mind, when I join a company, my #1 goal is to make money and to do it legitimately. I do not want to hurt anyone or rip anyone off. This is what I’ve learned and these guidelines will help you determine what company is right for you.
1. If you are not making at least 75% of the upfront commission when you make a sale, forget it. This means that you are doing all the work and the company and/or the person above you is making all the money.
2. If you have to have 1000, 10,000 or 20,000 people in your organization before you make any real money. DO NOT Join. Most people will NEVER get there.
3. If they teach you to hold home parties and invite all your friends. Run away fast.
4. If they have a sales pitch 2-3 times a day and only 2-3 training classes per week.
This means that the company is more interested in selling you than training you how to make money long term
5. If you can’t break even or get into profit with 3 sales, forget it.
6. If you can’t speak with the owners or the corporate office via phone or webinar,
Forget it. I like to know who I am doing business with before I will do business with them.
7. If it is a start up or in pre launch, forget. The chances of these companies becoming the next Amway is about as good as winning the lottery. At least with the lottery, you have a chance to win once or twice a week. You might as well go to Vegas and blow your money on a good time. At least you’ll have some great memories, see a great show and have a great meal.

These are not all the rules for success on the internet, but this is a great guideline to follow when evaluating an internet company. Use these guidelines to help you narrow down your choices for choosing a company that best fits yours goals.

Multi Level Marketing?..... Does it work?

2007-10-17T00:14:00.000+13:00

For some people, this is the way to go. I have met a few people over the years that swear by it. I know a few people who make over $100k a year working their multi level marketing program. The unfortunate part about it is that they were the only one making money. No one on their team was duplicating the efforts they were doing. Weather they were selling vitamins, travel, a gas saver product, lotions, potions, pills, candles or juice beverage products, I have tried it all and it was a difficult task for me. Once I ran out of my friends and family to bug about my new business, once I had two or three home parties, I ran out of leads, so I started buying leads in hopes to try to convert some people into my business. That is so much harder than it sounds. Sure I made sales, but by the time I was getting to the next profit level, the people who I brought in 2-3 months ago were dropping like flies. This is why I could never make it to the next big payout level of the commission plan. For some reason, I would always fall short of the next bonus payout or car bonus. Usually, I would fall short of personal volume or group volume or I would have enough on my left side, but not enough on my right side, so I would miss out on the big payouts, month after month.

This got to be the same old stuff you hear about why MLM doesn’t work for most people and the only people making money were the people at the top of the pyramid. People with huge dowlines and people that have been in the business a long time and lists of hundreds of thousands of people to market to. For any newbie joining, good luck. I once watched a stay at home mom put $13,000 into a business to quit within a year. Most of us are smarter than that and would have quit after a few months and maybe only lost $1000 down the drain, but this person was persistent and did not want to fail. So she kept plugging away until they had no money left and when gas prices went to $3.50, the father of the family couldn’t afford to put gas in the car. So much for helping out.

The only thing we have found on the internet to work for most people is a direct sales company that pays you 100% of the sale. Companies that have a price point of less than $1000 to start. This is the only way you have a chance to succeed. Beware of the $1500 to $5000 programs, the start up company and program jumpers. The truth about start ups is that they have no track record. You have no idea if they will be in business two years later. Watch out for people who jump ship every time a new program comes out on the internet. Most importantly, be careful of the program that costs more than $1000.00. They are hard to sell, no matter how good it sounds.

I hope this helps your research in determining a company that you can be proud to represent.

Multiple Streams of Income or Multiple ways to rip you off?

2007-10-08T22:16:00.000+13:00

Multiple streams of income have been around for years. It is the technique that many successful internet marketers have used for years. The problem is that many internet marketers have twisted this around to favor them ripping you off and justifying it to themselves so they can sleep at night. Let me explain.

Many multiple income stream marketers market products. Weather it be a new software program, affiliate program or training tool. Meaning, if they knew how to produce incomes selling one product, why not duplicate those efforts and sell many products.

Now a days, we have so many fools running wild out there who are taking this concept of multiple income streams to multiple ways to rip you off. I call them program jumpers. On the surface, they seem like experts. They will tell you everything you want to hear. You might even want to work with these people as they are so smooth in their approach to rip you off. Heck, you might even end up liking them. They might even back up their story by holding training calls, giving away free marketing tools such as lead capture pages and auto responder messages. They may call themselves trainers or master affiliates or master distributors. Be Careful out there and use common sense.

Do you know who Jeff Foxworthly is? He is comedian famous for the joke…"You know you’re a redneck, if….." He also hosts the very popular TV show called "Are you smarter than a 5^th grader". Ok, I call this test the Jeff Foxworthy test and it goes like this. You know you’re a program jumper and rip off artist if…..

If they have joined and promoted 3, 4 or more internet programs in one year.

If they tell you things like, Get in early, It’s brand new or "My Favorite Rip off Line" It’s in pre launch and is going to be the biggest thing since sliced bread.

They tell you, I am so big on the internet, that companies look for me to help them launch their company.

If they have a portfolio of more than 3-4 programs for you to choose from.

If some of those programs are very similar.

If they tell you things like I am only passing on the information, because if it is hot and new, I am going to be the first to hear about and help get the word out.

These are classic lines these rip off artists use, so be careful out there and use common sense. There is a company out there that has multiple streams of income built into one company. They have a stable track record of solid growth and is run by two of the most respected internet marketers on the net, who mastered multiple streams of income. I am not here to try to sell you on something, but I do wish to let you know about EDC Gold and I invite you to use your common sense and check them out knowing what you know now.

Beware of the "Pre Launch" or "It’s Brand New"

2007-10-04T23:48:00.000+13:00

Pre launch or it’s brand new is one of the oldest tricks in the book. I know because I have fallen for it so many times. My very first program was a program that promoted multiple income streams. After trying about 4 different programs my first year on the internet and having some success, but never the huge numbers I read about. I started looking for the big score, so I joined every program that was in pre launch or that just started. I thought to myself, if I could just get in early, then maybe I would be one of the people that you read about. All I learned is that most people jump into a program with no intent of staying for any length of time. They ride the wave for 2-3 months and move on to the next pre launch program.

If you are a loyal person and your sponsor gives you a good reason or excuse, "I call it a sales pitch" on why they are leaving and going to this new and improved company, you probably will feel bad if you do not follow your sponsor and you will feel like you let your sponsor down. They make you feel obligated to jump ship with your sponsor AND THEY MIGHT EVEN MAKE YOU FEEL STUPID IF YOU DON’T. So you follow them. I have done this too, but after doing this 2-3 times, you realize that your sponsor will continue to do this to you every 2-3 months, leaving broke and broken hearted.

The best sponsors are loyal sponsors. They stay in a program and work the program. This is the only way to make real money long term. If you are trying to make a name for yourself on the internet, you must have long term success. The only way to have long term success is to commit to a company and work that company long term. Just ask internet trainer "Dani Johnson" She’ll warn you of these people too. This is not a plug for her, but in my opinion, Dani Johnson is the best internet marketing trainer on the planet.

Think about it….If you are an employer, would you ever hire a person that has had 3-4 jobs in a 12 month period. Unless it was seasonal work, their resume’ would be thrown away and laughed at. So, if your sponsors resume’ looks like a high school seasonal employee, run as fast as you can.

Multiple Streams of Income Vs. Program Jumping

2007-10-03T19:36:00.000+13:00

This is a huge topic and is one that you must completely understand. Otherwise, you will get ripped off and lose a lot of money. Let me explain what multiple streams of income are and what they are not. Multiple streams of Income are a concept that many millionaires use to have many revenue avenues. Michael Corcoran, who was the founder of the first multiple income stream marketing system on the internet in 2001, would agree with this concept.

When Mike Corcoran created the first Multiple income stream marketing system, he never imagined how so many people would take advantage of this concept and use it against you to rip you off. Before I get into detail about the ways that these so called "internet Guru’s" are taking advantage of you, I’ll get into the way it was intended to be used.

Multiple income streams was intended for a person to start a business with one company, affiliate program, MLM or direct sales company. It was intended for a person to master one program, have success with it for a minimum of one to two years and then add another business to the portfolio when, and only when, the first business was running on autopilot. While still running the first business, putting little time into it because it was running so well, focus a little more time and money into the second business to get that one up to speed where it was duplicating the results of the first business. This is how you can double your results. Like, I said, it usually would take a year or two to get a business and multiple incomes up to the level where they were running on autopilot.

If you have spent many years developing the above strategy, it is alright to add a third or a fourth business to the portfolio as long as you maintained the original businesses. Adding more than one business to your portfolio in less than a year just proves that person is not focused and says a lot about their character. Having a total of more than 3-4 businesses in a portfolio just means that a person is simply a program jumper and is out to take your money.

Program jumping is becoming more and more popular these days from these so called "internet guru’s". This is a typical case in which someone is a program jumper. Watch out for these people. If someone has joined three programs in 6 months time, they are a program jumper. Program jumping makes sense for the leader of jump. They usually say things like "Bran New" or "Get in Early" or "This one is so much better". The truth is, they take all the followers from program to program to program. They make excuses of why they left to old program to find another one. The truth is, they have suckered all the people they can sucker into the first program and their income is suffering, so they say they’ve found a better mouse trap over here, so come and join me over here and you’ll make a ton of money with me over here….I know people who have joined 5 programs in 7 months. Anytime a new program came on the market, they were in it, suckered all the people they could into it until the next new program came about.

I know several people, who on the outside look great, but jump ship every two months. They put together training packages, marketing tools such as capture pages and auto responders, professionally written letters, etc. They look like a leader until you pay them $1000 for program A, then another $1000 for program B, the $1500 for program C and so on. Pretty soon, they are rich, you broke and left to fend for yourself.

Use your common sense out there. Do your homework before you join anything with anybody. The first question should be, What else do you promote? What have you tried. How many have you tried this year? Last year? If they do NOT have a stable track record, run for the hills. Think about it. If you were an employer and wanted to hire an employee and you get an applicant that has had four jobs this year alone, would you hire them? NO Way! You know that by the time you trained them, they would leave looking for more money! Isn’t that right?

My suggestion, use your common sense and beware of the so called "Internet Guru". They disguise themselves as an expert, but they are really just program jumpers.

Beware of the Scam Artist?

What is a scam artist? I thought long and hard before writing this article as not to offend anyone. Nobody would ever be complimented by being called a scam artist. A scam artist is one who takes your money for product or service and never delivers anything to you. They run off with your money to never be heard of or found again. I have found very few people in the world who are scam artists like that.

It has been my experience that there are similar traits in a lot people on the internet and I’ll let you be the judge weather or not you call these people scam artists. I usually find that program jumpers have similar traits and characteristics to the scam artists or maybe more resembling a swarm of Locusts. These people are usually people who jump ship to every new program out there on the internet. If a new program comes out, they jump in it, take all you suckers out there with them until they have sucked you dry and then move on to the next program.

Here is an article I found at http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761574486/Locust_(insect).html Let’s see if this resembles any of the so called "Internet Guru’s". Locust (insect), common name applied to a number of jumping insects and especially to the true locusts, which are migratory grasshoppers (see Grasshopper). The true locusts cause great damage to crops wherever they swarm. Control measures include the spreading of poison bait and the plowing under of locust eggs. Infestations threatening large regions of the United States are combated with insecticides sprayed by planes and truck-mounted mist blowers provided by joint federal-state programs.

Aside from the true locusts, the periodical cicada (see Cicada) is another important insect to which the name locust is applied. Grouse, or pygmy, locusts are small, jumping insects that are of little economic importance. Most species are dark brown and are less than 2.5 cm (less than 1 in) in length.

Now, does this sound familiar out there on the internet? I would love to warn you about these people by name, but would never do that. I will however, give you things to watch out for and let you be the judge.

If a person has joined 3 or more programs in one year, they are probably program jumpers, which as we see above, have similar traits to the locusts and do more harm than good. These people are simply out to take your money. No wonder they are making so much money. They have perfected the locust style of business.

So many companies....What is right for me?

2007-09-28T20:22:00.000+12:00

Beware of the Fluff. They seem like great companies, they have a good sales pitch and their comp plan looks good too. They have big corporate offices and have been around for years. Isn’t that good? Any company out there that sells products like lotions, potions, pills, miracle juices or miracle gas saving products usually doesn’t work for the average person for many reasons.

Those companies usually make most of their money from you, the distributor, not from selling the products. They have you on auto ship, so you are their income.

They only pay about 2% to 15% so many levels deep. They will tell you that when you fill the matrix, you won’t have to do anything and you’ll be making 20 to 40k a month. The truth is, there are so many loop holes to their comp plans that no body ever reaches those levels. You either will have too many people on your left, but not enough on your right side to make the higher level payouts. They tell you that you need more personal volume and your group volume is fine or vice versa, or my favorite, you had fallout this month, so you no longer qualify for that car bonus we promised you about.

They make you hold home parties to push your crap on your friends. Listen to me…..If I wanted weight loss, I’d go to GNC. If I wanted Lotions, I’d go to CVS, Save on, Nordstrom or Bullocks. If I wanted to put additives in my gas tank, I’d go to Kragen, Chief or Pep Boys and buy a product from STP or Penzoil. You get what I mean….?

They are a copy cat company of the original company. How many companies out there are selling a juice that is based from the Acai Berry, Goji berry or the Mangosteen fruit? How many of those promise to cure cancer? What a joke? Is our society that ignorant that if something actually cured cancer, wouldn’t we want to check it out? How many travel companies are there now? How many fuel additives are there now? How many of those have been shut down? How many make up, skin lotions and vitamin companies are there out there?

It just seems like there is so many junk companies on the internet, how do you what is good and what is not? Some of these companies above actually have a good product, but I would never go in business with them.

So, how do I choose a business that I can profit from and that I can be proud to represent?

If you are not making at least 75% of the upfront commission when you make a sale, forget it. This means that you are doing all the work and the company and/or the person above you is making all the money.

If you have to have 1000, 10,000 or 20,000 people in your organization before you make any real money. DO NOT Join. Most people will NEVER get there.

If they teach you to hold home parties and invite all your friends. Run away fast.

If they have a sales pitch 2-3 times a day and only 2-3 training classes per week. This means that the company is more interested in selling you than training you how to make money long term

If you can’t break even or get into profit with 3 sales, forget it.

If you can’t speak with the owners or the corporate office via phone or webinar, Forget it. I like to know who I am doing business with before I will do business with them.

If it is a start up or in pre launch, forget. The chances of these companies becoming the next Amway is about as good as winning the lottery. At least with the lottery, you have a chance to win once or twice a week. You might as well go to Vegas and blow your money on a good time. At least you’ll have some great memories, see a great show and have a great meal.

These are not all the rules for success on the internet, but this is a great guideline to follow when evaluating an internet company.
