Prosperity Tribe Opens It's Doors - Jump On Board!

I'm Actually Quite Impressed ...

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 01:44:00 +0000

I've been involved with a lot of supposed "plug and play turnkey systems" on the internet.

Some are good and some aren't worth the time to look at them.

So when I was told about Clickbank Pirate as the latest turnkey wonder to come out, naturally I was very skeptical.

But I was looking for something to give my subscribers that they could put into action right away and not have to fiddle around for ages with all the techy stuff.

But something that wasn't a complete "cookie cutter" thingy so that there would be a million and one sites exactly the same.

What Clickbank Pirate does is to give you a turnkey system that includes all the stuff you should do when promoting a product:

* Professionally designed Video Squeeze page with good converting copy and valuable free offer

* Thank you and Download pages already put together and monetized

* Professional well-written follow-up email series designed to convert prospects into buyers

* Built in hosting and autoresponder

* Extremely low cost entry point for a very effective "all-in-one-done-for-you" system

Basically, everything you need to do to set up a complete integration marketing system is in place for you and the best part is, you can be up and running and potentially making money in 15 minutes.

I don't know about you, but so often I've seen a product, get all excited about promoting it, and by the time I set up everything, my interest has worn off.

With Clickbank Pirate , I was abe to set it up in minutes and have been very impressed with the whole system.

Clickbank Pirat e is probably the best "plug and play" turnkey system I've seen to date, and definitely worth at least getting the free report to see how the whole thing works.

Even if you don't end up getting it, you'll get a ton of very valuable marketing training just by seeing what the creators of Clickbank Pirate (Soren Jordansen and Cindy Battye) have put together.

So check it out if you like - it's well worth the opt-in.

Here's a short vid for you -

Wow - what a couple of months this has been!

I've moved locations from the beauty of the open skies to the glory of the forest, mountains, and gorgeous (I mean GORGEOUS) lake -

It's been wild but we survived and now we're back in action.

I won't say that I've been totally out of touch even though you guys haven't heard much from me lately.

As a matter of fact, I've been quietly scouting out a couple of new systems that you all are going to LOVE. I mean systems that are so easy and so comprehensive that it's almost impossible NOT to make money with them.

In any case, I'll be letting you in on all the latest over the next few days, and I think you'll be as excited as I am right now.

Hope you have been enjoying an awesome summer - let me know what you're up to by leaving your comments below.

Take care

The Twitter Race

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 13:54:00 +0000

Last night was a historic event which truly underscored the power of social media.

Ashton Kutcher and CNN faced off in a light hearted but serious race to see who could be the first to get 1 million followers on Twitter.

Twitter has experienced massive growth in the past year, with 7 million people sharing their life in 140 characters. (Neilson said 7 million - Oprah says 20 million ... !)

And it's not only folks like you and I — it's big name brands and top dog celebrities as well.

Everyone from Barak Obama, Britney Spears, Ellen DeGeneres, John Mayer, Lance Armstrong, Ryan Seacrest, Jimmy Fallon, and Zappos have gotten the Twitter bug and have built up massive followings from the interested public who wants to see what they are up to at any given moment.

But last night, none other than Ashton Kutcher himself squared off against CNN's Breaking News Twitter site to see who could reach that magic 1 million followers mark the soonest.

Ashton had put out a video challenging CNN to a race a couple of days ago to overturn CNN's then #1 position on Twitter. It was responded to by Larry King, who jumped on the Twitter bandwagon in support of CNN. And the race was on.

Last night, the race came to a heady climax around 1:10 a.m. where after hours of live interaction with Ashton on Twitter and UStream was matched with Larry King and CNN promoting their follower invites on Twitter and mainstream television

You saw in real time people signing up to follow Ashton and CNN at about the same speed — 5, 10, 20, and more followers PER SECOND. The connectedness to the "event" was palpable. You were right there, along with thousands of others, in the new "living room of life" which Twitter and other social media sites have created.

Ashton finally broke the 1 million record shortly before CNN did, and the champaign and heartfelt victory speeches ran ramped. Ashton held up his $100,000 check already made out to the Malaria No More foundation that he had promised he would support if he won, and wife Demi Moore showed her true dancing style.

It was a moment of joy, of victory, of celebration for many reasons, not the least of which was to show in a big way how user generated sites like Twitter are becoming the new "news" portals, and that one lone man (albeit celebrity) can offer enough clout to surpass a massive corporate giant like CNN.

CNN's acknowledgement of Ashton's victory was instant and gracious, and today Ashton will be making the rounds on Oprah and Larry King.

Whoever would have thought that 140 characters of "what are you doing right now?" could have such an impact on this planet?

Mark my words, it's not going to stop here. The impact of social media on the world is only just beginning. It's an exciting time and guess what? You're a big part of it too. So let's stay connected and see how we can rock the world for good, shall we?

Carolyn Carey

(follow me on Twitter and I'll follow you too :)

PS Needless to say, there are many resources popping up to show you how to maximize the current power of Twitter to not only generate bonds between people, but to also use it as an awesome marketing tool.

Here is one of the best, which, if you aren't on Twitter, and especially if you aren't using Twitter to the fullest, will be quite an asset for you.

What Does Chicken Little Have With You Making Money?

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 13:12:00 +0000

I don't know about you, but I'm sick and tired of the media dishing out negative energy about the economy.

Personally, I think this economy is the biggest money making opportunity ever.

Yeah, I know — that's contrary to popular belief.

Well, you should know by now that we don't play by the "rules" :) — we like to create money out of thin air as it were, and we can do that because we see opportunity where others see adversity.

Take a look at this video to see what I mean:

So what's the message?

Pessimism is THEIR economy, not yours. "YOUR" economy is what matters and in "YOUR" economy, you can make as much money as you want. So what do you think?

Are You Making These 3 Fatal Mistakes?

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 13:49:00 +0000

It's been clear to us over these last few years that while everyone wants to succeed, very few actually do.

So many people are living lives of "quiet desperation", going about their day-to-day activities on autopilot, just getting by but not really having the happiness and fulfillment they truly want or deserve.

There are three main reasons for that:

1. Not Being Clear What You Want

You have to know where you want to go before you can make any trip.

You can't say "give me a ticket" without specifying a destination.

You have to define exactly what it is that you want (in general terms) starting with the end results in mind.

Write it down as if you had already achieved it, and visualize it in detail for 5-10 minutes
a day.

Don't underestimate the power of doing this. It's a very simple thing that can have massive
results.

2. Not Taking Action

Even if people know what they want, they often find themselves doing nothing about it.

You can't just sit around and expect your goals to magically be achieved. You have to get in the game if you want success to be able to find you.

You have to start the action process in motion which simply means doing something in the general direction of achieving your goal.

Even doing one little thing a day will create the momentum for the universe to kick in and help fulfill that goal for you.

3. Looking In The Rear View Mirror

We all know that "thoughts become things", and the situation you're in today is a result of what your consistent thoughts were about yesterday.

But don't let today's circumstances dictate what tomorrow's reality will be.

Choose your thoughts wisely - focus on what you want and not on what you don't want.

Always look ahead, not back. What's going on in your life today doesn't mean that it has to continue.

You have the power to create any situation you want if you just take advantage of it.

You're awesome. And we know you can do it.

Ciao,

Rich and Carolyn

What Does The World's #1 Greatest Marketing Wizard Have To Say About The Recession?

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 13:03:00 +0000

Over the last few days, we've been stepping back and taking stock of everything that's happening online and offline in the Internet Marketing arena and in general.

Our strategy team has been assessing what's been going on in the last 3 months and how that's has been affecting us, affecting you, and the industry in general.

What we've found is pretty mind-blowing.

The majority of the people are deep in a recession, experiencing everything that comes along with that.

Worries. Fears. Doubts. Anxiety. Cutting back. Spending less.

At the same time, there's a very clear sector of people who are unaffected by the recession, choosing not to participate in it, and are actually leveraging the recession to increase their assets and come out further ahead than ever.

How do they do it?

Jay Abraham, Internet Marketing extraordinaire and the world's #1 greatest marketing wizard, gave a mind-blowing call last week on how to generate massive income during a recession.

I got a "back door" link to it and want to share it with you.

Masters Of Recessionary Income Teleseminar with Jay Abraham

This is a time of complete opposites. People are anxious, worried, fearful, and stressed about the economy. At the same time, they're still spending money, buying things, and those who know how to tap into that are becoming millionaires.

Here's what Jay has to say about that:

Masters Of Recessionary Income Teleseminar with Jay Abraham

Rich Schefren gives a good summary of the call on his blog if you want to read that too:

Strategic Profits Blog

You can choose to participate in the recession or not. It's completely up to you.

More millionaires are made during a recession than at any other time. And if you know how to use that to your advantage, you'll be able to make money regardless of what the economy is doing.

Does The Position Of Keywords In The URL Affect Ranking?

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Fri, 20 Mar 2009 00:59:00 +0000

Last month, Google software engineer Matt Cutts answered some key questions on Google Moderator and answered many of them on video.

I'm going to post a couple of them here with access to the rest.

The first is about whether or not the position of keywords in the URL has a significant impact on your rankings.

Here's what he said about that:

Straight From The Horse's Mouth

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 12:24:00 +0000

I can't tell you how many times I've heard Internet Marketers, especially the so-called "experts" talk about Google in a mysterious, elusive way.

They talk about it as if it were some "force" guiding the search engines and changing rules left and right just for the fun of it.

The Google Dance, the Google Slap, the Google Sandbox, and on and on. It can make your head spin!

Now granted, there are many subtleties to any business, including Google, and yes, there have been many evolutionary steps that Google has taken to improve its service to the public, and they may not necessarily feel to ask their millions (billions?) of users about each step before they implement it.

But here is a video about Google, specifically Google Adwords, that somehow makes that giant all seem very tame and straightforward.

The Chief Executive Officer of Google, Hal Varian himself, explains the AdWords Ad Auction and how your maximum CPC (cost per click) bid and quality score determine how much you pay for a click on Google.com.

When you watch the video, you almost feel as if you were sitting in a Google board meeting listening to one of their top executives explain what his particular department does. Very clear, very simple, and quite surprisingly very complete.

Google will tell you what it wants if you just listen, and if you do listen, that will help your business immensely.

Interesting piece of trivia: Google was first nicknamed "BackRub" because the system checked backlinks to estimate the importance of a site.

(Hmmm ... Hal doesn't go too much into backlinks here ... maybe there is more to Google than meets the eye ...)

Tony Robbins in Your Living Room?

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 03:46:00 +0000

Wow - this is great.

If you've ever wanted to go to a Tony Robbins seminar but haven't, here's your chance.

The entire morning session of the Unlimited Seminar in Singapore from 2007 is available, and I wanted to post it here for you.

The entire session is over two hours, and I recommend that you watch the whole thing all at once. Pretend you spent thousands of dollars, flew to Singapore, and are sitting in a room with over 5,000 other people who are there for exactly the same purpose — to have their lives changed by one of the greatest personal development speakers of all time.

Participate in it fully. It will make a huge difference in your life.

But even if you can only spend 10 – 15 minutes, do that. It's worth it.

The first two videos are below (and the link to the others is after that)

Here's the link to #3 – once you go there you'll see the links to the others as well.

How To Fail Your Way To The Top

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 12:37:00 +0000

Failure is a funny thing. I don't know where any successful person in the world would be without it!

Here's a great story from top internet marketer Jonathan Budd that will give you a totally different perspective on failure, success, and what it takes to get where you want to be ...

Jonathan has also told a great story about his good friend and Success Coach Tom Hennessy recently sharing an amazing fact with him.

Tom asked Jonathan if he knew the percentage that an olympic gold athlete succeeded out of 100% of their efforts?

What's the percentage of success it takes to be the absolute best in the world at something? You won't believe ...

30%. That's right, 30%. All it takes is 30% to be an olympic gold athlete. The other 70% is failing! So imagine what it takes just to be another millionaire out of MILLIONS!

10% success maybe. Which means you can fail 90% of the time and still be massively successful! Do you SEE how with this information you are empowered to literally NEVER stop.

The only difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful peple NEVER EVER stop. They just don't give up. Period.

They fail their way to the top ...

You're an inspiration. You have the belief, faith, and courage to truly CREATE your dreams.

So don't EVER give up.

Tips For A Great Week

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 14:43:00 +0000

Hey Everyone,

Hope you're having a great week and creating tons of success!

Just a couple of tips to make your week even better:

1. Take Some Time Out For Yourself

Yes, you want to make money, but you also want to have a life.

Don't spend 12, 14, or 16 hours at the computer — it will be counter productive.

Take 2 hour blocks, focus without distractions (email, phone, text messages, etc.) then take a break.

Then another 2 hours and break.

You'll be amazed at what you can accomplish!

2. Take A Walk

At some point in the day, every day — get outside!

Take a 30 minute walk and really stretch, breathe deeply, and just enjoy the beautiful scenery around you.

You'll feel so much better when you do.

3. Take Time For Gratitude

Yes, I know it sound cheesy, but you have SO much to be grateful for, right here and right now.

Take a few minutes to think about and even write about, what it is in your life you are truly grateful for.

You'll find out there's a whole lot more than you thought, and appreciating what you have brings you more of it.

Do these simple things and your week will be awesome!

Here's to you —

Who Said Spillover Is Dead?

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 21:39:00 +0000

Hey Guys,

I just want to clear up a rumor that I've been hearing for the last months that spillover in network marketing is dead.

A lot of times when you join a program, one of the "benefits" you're told is that you'll get spillover from your upline.

Most of the time, it's completely unrealistic due to the structure of the program or the activity of the people in the program.

And frankly, it never happened for me in any of my network marketing programs.

That is ... until now.

Many of you may know that we joined an awesome little program called Infinity 800 a little while ago, that was (and still is) in pre-launch but attracting a lot of attention from big industry leaders.

It has a 2X2 matrix that allows you to cycle quickly and earn $540 over and over again for a one-time fee of $260.

Basically, it' s a no-brainer just for that reason alone.

The product is sweet too - Internet Marketing training from one of the top Internet Marketers around that can help you or your prospects be successful in anything you're promoting.

But that's not why I'm writing this post. I wanted to let you know what happened to me in terms of spillover.

When I first got in, it was right before I was going on vacation, so it was all I could do to set it up before I left.

When I got back from vacation, not having promoted it actively when I was gone, I saw that I had 3 people in my matrix from spillover from my upline. Nice.

I started marketing and got some active referrals, but in the meantime I got even more spillover from my upline and cycled before I really had much chance to do anything.

So $540 for basically doing almost nothing!

This is the first time I've ever seen spillover really work, and it's really exciting.

Plus the stories of people cycling multiple times per DAY are amazing.

My sponsor just cycled 5 times in 1 NIGHT last week - $2,700 while he was SLEEPING - literally.

All I can say about Infinity 800 is that it's one of the absolute best programs I've ever seen - period. And the only program that I've seen that debunks the spillover myth.

If you want to find out more about what I'm talking about, check it out here:

Infinity 800 and The 540 Plan For Massive Spillover

Global Success Blueprint - Day 8 - Building A Sales Funnel

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 04:54:00 +0000

Congratulations on getting this far!

You've chosen a market, chosen an affiliate product to test the market, and have started testing it out using Pay-Per-Click advertising.

If the product is converting well, meaning that people are clicking on your PPC ad and buying the product, now it's time to scale things up.

If it's not converting well, then you can either test out a different product in that same niche or else find a new market to promote.

Be sure you test it long enough to really determine whether the product is profitable or not, but don't stay in a market that's not converting well for too long.

Once you find a profitable market, the sky's the limit as far a ways to promote it.

Whether you continue to promote affiliate products or decide to create your own product, the way that you'll promote it is basically the same.

*************************************

SET UP A MARKETING FUNNEL

*************************************

The first thing you'll want to do is to set up a "marketing funnel".

A marketing funnel is simply a system that takes your prospect through the different steps of your sales process as they go from being a prospect to a buyer.

Generally it begins with a lead capture page to capture your prospect's name and email so that you can start to build a list of subscribers.

This lead capture page should introduce you, your story, and what you have to offer to the prospect.

When a prospect "opts in" to your lead capture page, meaning that he signs up with his name and email address to receive whatever you are offering, then he gets put on your subscriber list, where he is sent follow up email messages that you set up through your autoresponder.

Through these follow up email messages, you build a relationship with your subscribers, offering them value and having them get to know, like, and trust you, as well as recommending products and services to them.

Building a list is the first step in your sales funnel.

For the rest of the steps in building a sales marketing funnel, go ahead and watch this video:

Global Success Blueprint - Day 7 - Product Selection

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 02:33:00 +0000

Now that you've found your niche market and some "buying" keywords, you want to find a product to promote to test the market and see if it converts.

Let's look again at the golf market.

Let's say you decided to focus on people who were looking for golf tips, and one of your keywords was "how to improve your golf swing".

You want to choose a product that satisfies the need of this market.

The easiest way to do this is to choose an affiliate product - i.e. a product that has been created by someone else but you just promote that product and get paid a commission.

You want to test out the market on a small scale with an affiliate product to see if it converts well BEFORE you spend a ton of time and money heavily promoting your affiliate product, or even creating your own product.

One of the best places to find good affiliate products is Clickbank. the largest online marketplace of digital (downloadable) products.

Here's a video of how to choose good products on Clickbank.

In our golf example, if the keyword is "how to improve your golf swing", you're going to want to find a product on Clickbank that gives tips and training on how to improve your golf swing.

Look at the different products available, and choose the one you like best, and one that's converting well.

Once you've chosen a good affiliate product, you can begin to test it.

The best way to test out a market quickly is to promote the product using Google Adwords, or Pay-Per-Click advertising.

This is the fastest way to see if people are interested in your market or not.

You can also use free traffic generation methods to test it out, but it may take longer to get the results you want.

Here are some videos to get you started with PPC:

We'll get into more specifics tomorrow.

ACTION STEP for today: Choose an affiliate product you would like to promote to test your market and begin testing it with PPC.

Stay tuned,

Global Success Blueprint - Day 6 - Niche Market Selection

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 23:01:00 +0000

Now that you've chosen a general market that you're interested in and seen that it's profitable, now it's time to "drill down" into that market and find a very targeted "niche" within that market to focus on.

For example, let's say that you chose the golf market. Maybe you play golf, or are interested in it in some way, and you wanted to sell something related to golf.

You've seen that golf is a good market, with lots of enthusiastic buyers spending money for everything related to golf.

There's lots of forums, magazines, ads, buzz, and popularity about golf.

But you don't want to promote the term "golf", and here's why.

Golf is much too general a term.

if someone searches "golf", you don't know whether they're looking for golf videos, or golf shoes, or golf training, or golf clubs, or golf gifts, etc.

You want to find a more targeted term to focus on.

You also want to find what is called a "buying keyword" - i.e. a term, or keyword, that indicates the searcher is ready to buy whatever they are looking for, rather than just looking for information.

How do you do this?

1. Go to the Google Adwords Keyword Tool and type in the word "golf".

2. See what kind of keywords come up.

You'll see that terms such as:

golf clubs

golf lessons

golf equipment

golf putters

golf swing

golf balls

These are more targeted terms than "golf", but as you'll see in the keyword tool, they all have a lot of competition.

3. Take one of these terms and "drilll down" even further.

For example, let's take "golf balls".

Type "golf balls" into the Google Adwords Keyword Tool and see what keywords come up.

You'll see such terms as:

golf balls callaway

golf ball reviews

used golf balls for sale

wedding golf balls

trick golf balls

used titleist golf balls

titanium golf balls

personalized titleist golf balls

chocolate golf balls

callaway hx tour golf balls

These are more targeted terms, and people who type these terms into the search engines are more likely ready to buy. They will have done their research beforehand about what they want, and now are just looking to purchase.

Especially the terms using brand names (such as callaway or titleist) are good, because it means the searcher has already decided on what brand of golf balls they want and are most likely just looking for the best price on them before they purchase.

These keywords have a good amount of searches per month, but have much less competition than the more general terms of "golf" or just "golf balls".

These are the kind of keywords you want to focus on.

4. You can also use what is called "keyword modifiers" to find targeted keywords.

They include such things as:

alleviate

buy

course

cure

ebook

eliminate

fast

fix

get rid of

how to

learn

prevent

remedy

remove

repair

revealed

secret

solution

soothe

tips

training

training aid

videos

With our golf example, instead of typing in "golf" into the keyword tool, you can type in "golf tips" or "golf training aid" or "golf secrets".

The list of keywords that is generated will tell you more specifically what is being searched for, i.e. what KIND of golf tips they want or what golf training aid they are looking for.

So your ACTION STEP for today is to "drill down" into your general market keyword and find some "niches" that have good searches but less competition, and are "buying keywords" as well.

Start making a list of these keywords, and we'll tell you what to do with them tomorrow.

Global Success Blueprint - Day 5 - Market Research

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 06:01:00 +0000

Now that you've chosen a general market that you're interested in, the next step is to see if that market is profitable or not.

1. First of all, you should go to Google Trends and see what the popularity for that market is. Is it getting more popular over time or less popular? Is it a seasonal trend or is it all year around? What countries is this market most popular in?

Watch this video to get a quick lesson on how to use Google Trends:

2. Next you'll want to go to the Google Keyword Tool and see how many searches are done every month for your market. You'll want to see amount of competition on adwords, as well as how many people are actually searching for that term.

Here is a video explaining how to use the Google Keyword Tool:

3. You can also visit such sites as: eBay, Amazon, etc. and see what their "hot trends" are.

4, You can see if there are magazines and ezines published about your market. You can see if there are forums and blogs about your market. The more "buzz" about your market that's out there, the better.

5. Next, go to Google search and do a search for your market. Look at the results for the "organic" searches on the left hand side of the page to see what kind of websites are focusing on that market.

Also look at the results for the adwords ads on the right hand side of the page to see how many people are buying ads in that market.

If there is a good number of ads, then that means there's money to be made in that market.

Once you've done all that, you will have a good idea if that general market is profitable.

If there is a lot of "buzz" about it, if there is a lot of searches for it, and if there is a lot of adwords competition with it, then that means there is money to be made in that market.

Once you learn that, then you'll want to drill down into your market to find your "niche" that you can dominate in the search engines.

Do the steps outlined above and we'll get into that more tomorrow.

Stay tuned for Day 6 -

Especially if these markets are coupled with a transition (i.e. getting married, having a baby, losing a job, moving to a new home, going to college, getting an illness, etc. - this makes it an especially "hot" market as people want to find a solution to their problem NOW and are more likely to buy whatever will help them solve that problem.

Markets that are good even during a down economy:

1. Making Money

2. Saving Money

3. Debt Reduction

Global Success Blueprint - Day 3 - Market

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 00:04:00 +0000

Over the next few days, we're going to be going deep into how to choose the right market, the right product, and the right sales system for your online business.

If you've already got a proven market, a great product, and an effective sales system in place, then feel free to jump to the traffic generation portion of the Global Success Blueprint.

If you don't have a market or a product yet, then continue reading:

The first thing you need to do when starting a business online is to choose a MARKET that you want to serve.

Most people get this backwards.

They choose a PRODUCT that they want to sell FIRST and THEN try and find a market to sell it to.

We're going to do the opposite.

We're going to look at the MARKET FIRST and THEN decide what we want to sell BASED ON WHAT THE MARKET IS TELLING US IT WANTS.

So how do you choose a market?

A market is just a group of people who share the same interest in, fear of, or desire to obtain a certain outcome in their experience.

There are millions of markets out there, so how do you choose one?

You want to find a market that you like, that you're passionate about, that you have expertise in, that you want to know more about, or are at least somewhat interested in.

Sure, you can make money in any market, but if you can find a market that you like, it's much easier in the long run.

You also want to find a market that's hot, that's active, and that has a lot of buzz.

You want to find a market where people are ALREADY spending money and have proven to be lucrative.

You see, there are tons of things ALREADY being sold to tons of people who are ALREADY spending tons of money to get them.

So why reinvent the wheel? Why not just find a "starving crowd" of people who are spending money already in a market and just put what they want to buy right in front of them?

Makes sense, doesn't it?

So how do you go about finding a good market?

1. Choose a market that you like.

2. Research the market for profitability.

3. Test the market on a small scale.

5. If the market tests well, scale it up. If it doesn't test well, move on to a new market.

Simple.

We'll be going over each of these steps in detail in the next few days.

In the meantime, think about what areas you enjoy most.

We'll be giving you some specific ideas in the next post.

Stay tuned,

Success is waiting for you -

Global Success Blueprint - Day 2 - Mindset

noreply@blogger.com (Carolyn Carey) — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 23:50:00 +0000

Let's jump into the Global Success Blueprint.

The very first thing we want to do is take a reality check in the area of mindset.

You may have heard that success is 90 % mindset and 10 % method. Well, we know from experience that is SO true.

For true success in business or anything else, you need to have a PROSPERITY mindset.

A prosperity mindset focuses on the wealth and abundance there is out there - a poverty mindset focuses on the lack and limitations there are out there.

Remember that your thoughts become things. Your thoughts create your life. What you focus on expands. You become what you think about all day long.

Forget the lack, limitations, "can't dos" and all the other things that have been holding you back.

Focus on the positive and that's what will show up in your life.

You have the skill, the talent, the intelligence, the potential to achieve WHATEVER you want.

Just realize that, and don't EVER let anyone tell you otherwise - cause they'll be wrong.

Instead of saying "I can't" or I don't know how", say instead, "How can I?" and "Who can teach me?"

Instead of saying "I don't have any money" or "I'm broke", say instead, "I'm creating more wealth every day" or "I'm grateful for all the riches coming into my life right now".

It's all out there for you, and the only thing you have to do is decide to choose it and focus on it.

If you have a prosperity mindset, then others will be attracted to do business with you. You will be perceived as a leader and someone who is giving value to others, and that will bring you floods of customers.

Also, promise yourself you won't treat your business like a hobby. This is a common mistake among people starting out, and it always keeps them stuck.

You are the CEO of your business, and that starts from Day One.

If you treat your business casually, you'll get casual results.

If you treat your business like a business, you'll get the results you're looking for.

You have to be very focused and committed to do what it takes to run a business, and if you do this, you can't help but succeed.

To get started, there are two ACTION STEPS we want you to do:

1. Get a clear picture of what you want for your business and put it in writing. Think of why you started it and what you want to get out of it. Make a very detailed description of what you want to achieve and read it over several times a day.

2. Start watching this series of free videos. They give some great basic training in the field of business and show you how to position yourself as a leader right from the start.

Free video course for leaders

Do these two steps and we'll take it to the next level tomorrow.

How serious are you about starting a home business?

How serious are you about making money from home using your computer?

On a scale of 1 - 10, write down a number.

Is it a 5? a 7? a 10?

If you answered "yes", then great - read on.

Those who are willing to do what it takes to get their businesses up and running.

We're about to show you the exact blueprint for success, but we only want to give that kind of information to people who will actually USE it.

Otherwise, what's the point?

So, what was your number?
