Do they matter? Is it important to focus on them?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">If your answer is yes, let me ask you a simple question.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">How do you measure branding? How can you measure how much your “brand” has increased as a result of your marketing campaigns?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">The answer is that there isn’t a exact way to measure. Branding is intangible. It’s hard to quantify.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">And for that reason, I prefer the direct response marketing approach. Because ultimately, a success business is judged upon sales and profit.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I much prefer going into campaigns that let me track my ROI. So I know what to improve to get better results. As well as what to discard. </font><font size="2" face="Verdana">Now, I’m sure this topic will no doubt be a controversial one. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Thurs I’ll leave you with John Forde’s views on this particular subject. It’s a very good read.</font></p>
<h4><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></strong></h4>
<h4><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">Do &quot;Brands&quot; Really Matter?</font></strong></h4>
<p><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">By </font><a href="http://clicks.earlytorise.com/t/AQ/Qd4/RfA/F7o/Ag/Ab-23w/6L1q" class="liexternal" target="_blank"><font size="2" face="Verdana">John Forde</font></a></strong><b>     <br /></b>    <br /><font size="2" face="Verdana">Ad agency guys love brands. They love brand-driven advertising too.     <br />On the website for Ogilvy &amp; Mather, the agency founded by legendary ad man David Ogilvy, I once saw the phrase &quot;We&#8217;re all about brands.&quot; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Poor old Ogilvy probably did a double-tumble tailspin in his grave.     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">As readers of <em>Early to Rise</em> know, I love to trash the whole idea of brand marketing. And I&#8217;m not alone. The entire direct-response industry leans away from it.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">It&#8217;s just not in our blood. And not for no reason.     <br />Brand-based marketing logic, after all, is the planning you see behind all those Super Bowl commercials that make you laugh but sell nothing.      <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">It&#8217;s the thinking behind sleek, wordless billboards and print ads that leave you scratching your head. (&quot;Hmm,&quot; you say to yourself, &quot;I feel vaguely sexy&#8230; and crave salted pork products&#8230; but I have no idea why.&quot;)     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">But the main reason we in the measurable, quantifiable world of direct response reject the strategy of introducing a product based on brand is because it is usually a long, laborious, and not measurably effective process. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">And, far too often, an exercise in self-adulation. But not much more.     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">However &#8211; and you&#8217;d better sit down for this &#8211; it turns out there&#8217;s at least one area in the world of direct response where&#8230; yes&#8230; even yours truly can spot some value in pumping up the profile of a product&#8217;s brand.     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Not just a small area. A huge one. Very big.     <br />How so?      <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Ho</strong><strong>w E-Mail Relationships Change Everything</strong>        <br /></font><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Used to be, every marketing piece that went to your target customers was in an envelope, sent cold to a rented list. Your prospect didn&#8217;t know you from Adam.</font></p>
<p> <font size="2" face="Verdana">
<p>Brand mattered little, because you had little footing with the prospect in the first place. Benefits and features, instead, told the story.      <br />Then we started marketing online.</p>
<p>You can&#8217;t do cold e-mailing online, because that&#8217;s what we call sp*m. So the best and brightest e-mail-driven businesses went about it another way.</p>
<p>First, they built relationships with their prospects. With e-zines. With product fulfillment and digital extras delivered to inboxes. With membership sites that brought visitors in free, then kept them coming back for more.</p>
<p>And what&#8217;s more important in e-mail marketing than getting a recipient to open your steady stream of e-mail missives? Nothing. Without that, your efforts are sand on a sea turtle&#8217;s back. </p>
<p>Going nowhere in a hurry.     </p>
<p>The relationship is what gets the e-mail opened. The relationship is what gets the e-mail read. The relationship is what makes way for the sale. And that relationship is based on&#8230; yep&#8230; a kind of &quot;brand&quot; trust that surrounds you or your organization as the source of that e-mail.     <br /><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>The</strong><strong> Power of the T-Factor</strong>      </p>
<p>In short, you&#8217;re counting on your name&#8230; which IS your &quot;brand&quot;&#8230; to carry enough &quot;T&quot; factor (Trust) to keep the reader from clicking &quot;delete.&quot;</p>
<p>The best way to earn any kind of noble brand status, in e-mail or anywhere else, is via the quality of the product itself. Online, that means quality content. Content that informs. That entertains. That gets results. </p>
<p>Or at least shows the reader how to get results.     <br />Occasionally, that can happen in a single flash of brilliance. More often, it happens as a trickle. Over time.</p>
<p>First, there&#8217;s the e-zine or the valuable online report. There also might be a website, full of content and trustworthy testimonials.      <br />Then there&#8217;s the respectful treatment. The lack of sp*m. The html that doesn&#8217;t take forever to download. The ideas never heard or seen elsewhere.</p>
<p>A thank you note for sign-ups. Delivery that actually sticks to the promised mailing schedule. And so on.</p>
<p>Until the reader can&#8217;t wait to hear what you have to say next. You&#8217;ve become part of his online &quot;family.&quot; A member of his inner circle of trust. And that&#8217;s where you reap the rewards.      </p>
<p> </font>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">You can now endorse products you&#8217;re pretty sure your readers will want. And if you&#8217;re right, they&#8217;ll even buy.     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Continuing to offer them good products deepens that trust cycle. And your brand takes on an even brighter shine. Every subsequent sale, even for higher-priced stuff, gets that much easier.     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Of course, bungle it and you&#8217;ll lose your brand power pretty darn fast. But there&#8217;s no denying it &#8211; the deeper this cycle goes, the more valuable that idea of a brand becomes.     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">The new customer becomes the loyal customer. Ready to spend more, too. Not just a little, but often by multiples. And you&#8217;re soon selling lots of specialty items to your serious fans.      <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">This is where fortune building begins.     <br /></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Yet again, a lot of this depends on how well you lay the groundwork&#8230; on having quality information to offer your prospects, right up front.     <br />And that has to happen long before the marketers and copywriters come along.      <br /></font></p>

<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Why should they engage your service? Or buy your product?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">The biggest obstacle to getting the sale is displaying adequate proof. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Proof that you are able to do what you say you can do.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Proof that it is safe to do business with you. Proof that there will little to no risk.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I’ve lost sales before. I’ve made unconvincing presentation too. Because I failed to show enough proof. So don’t repeat the same mistakes I made.</font></p>
<p><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></strong></p>
<p><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Here are a few good ways to ramp</strong> up your “proofs”:</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Display successful case studies</strong> – how, who what, when, why – explain in specific terms how your service/product has helped…</font></li>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Testimonials</strong> – better to let a 3rd party brag for you…</font></li>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Show videos/images/pictures (optical proof)</strong> of results/products – People are visual creature. They tend to believe more when they see…</font></li>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Show relevant certifications</strong> – I’m talking about security certifications… educational certifications…industry accredited certifications and so on…</font></li>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Show facts and figures</strong> – people are more taken in by numbers. The more specific the better. If they can see that you can go down to that detailed a data, then it must be true…</font></li>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Money back guarantee</strong> – To show proof that you are supremely confident of what you can deliver. If not, your money back. Not suitable for all though.</font></li>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Display client logos</strong> – rub their credibility to you. It’s the power of association.</font></li>
<li><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>Quote relevant quotes by authority figures</strong> that will help your cause. Again it’s about the power of association.</font></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Do you have anymore you can think of? Are you showing adequate proof today?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Let me know what you think?</font></p>

<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Are you feeling the recession blues yet?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Many are. And if you look around you, companies every week is short of cash.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Everything is being cut back. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Competition is greater than ever. But customers are getting lesser. How?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Michael Masterson teaches that a good strategy – an evergreen one at that – is to under-price your competition.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">For the cost conscious clients, cash is king. If you can fulfill the same service but at a lower price than your competitors, you are bound to seen as attractive.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Personally, I found that to be true. But price shouldn’t be the only focus.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">It’s also about delivering well on your service. And to stress the value of your service is much more higher than the price you charge. So your customer will feel that they gotten a great deal.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I say don’t shortchange yourself. Go ahead to <strong>under-charge</strong> if you need to. But <strong>over-deliver</strong>. And let the client know that.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">If you charge $1, let them know you are delivering $10 in value. Your clients are happy. And that can be a good start to a long term relationship. Everyone profits.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I leave you to enjoy the article by Paul Lawrence below. It’s a good read for businessmen everywhere.</font></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><em><b><font size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;However valuable your product is&#8230; however clever your marketing&#8230; nothing will grow your customer base faster than under-pricing the competition.&quot;</font></b></em></p>
<p><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana">- <strong>Michael Masterson</strong></font></p>
<h4><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">A Tried-and-True Recession-Busting Strategy for Winning Customers</font></strong></h4>
<p><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">By </font><a href="http://clicks.earlytorise.com/t/AQ/KYE/LTo/Cwk/Ag/Ab-23w/7Xif" class="liexternal" target="_blank"><font size="2" face="Verdana">Paul Lawrence</font></a><font size="2" face="Verdana"> </font></strong></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">No matter what kind of business you run, I have a secret that can help you make money even while the recession has your clients&#8217; wallets shut tight. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">To tell you the truth, this secret is a good way to make money any time.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Andrew Carnegie, Marshall Field, Sam Walton, and Henry Ford are among the mega-wealthy who put this strategy to work.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">As Michael Masterson has pointed out, it is &quot;behind many &#8211; if not most &#8211; of America&#8217;s greatest fortunes.&quot; In fact, says Michael, &quot;It may be the most important secret a businessman can know, for it is the most powerful and most reliable way to make a small business grow.&quot; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">But many businessmen are afraid of this strategy&#8230; and many others simply overlook it.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I&#8217;m talking about <em>undercutting the competition</em>.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Andrew Carnegie was able to produce steel cheaply. Marshall Field cut the price of retail shopping. Sam Walton&#8217;s Wal-Mart started offering food, clothing, and other goods at rock-bottom prices. Henry Ford made automobiles that the average Joe could afford. All of these men went on to make massive fortunes.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Under-pricing your competition is an exceptionally effective way to rake in profits during lean times.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">An interesting article in the <em>Orlando Sentinel</em> recently reported on a number of businesses that have been booming during the recession. Now when you think of &quot;recession-proof&quot; businesses, credit repair services and pawnshops are likely to come to mind. But the <em>Sentinel</em> mentioned several &quot;atypical&quot; businesses that are doing well, including a bank, a restaurant, and an advertising agency. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">They are all very different kinds of businesses, but they have something in common: Their focus is on saving their customers money. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Even during a recession, there are some goods and services that people must buy. And if you can save your customers money while giving them what they need, you can make a bundle. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Here&#8217;s how to use this undercutting strategy for your business:</font></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">Survey the competition and determine if you can offer the same value for less.</font></strong></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Many small businesses do not even consider charging less for their products and services, no matter what their competition is doing. They settle on a certain price, because they figure that is what it &quot;should&quot; be. And if the economy changes and times get tough, they don&#8217;t consider lowering their price, because that&#8217;s what they&#8217;ve always charged. (Mom-and-pop operations are often guilty of this.) </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">One of the first successful small businesses I began was a swimming pool maintenance company. When I surveyed what my competitors were charging and calculated my costs, I saw ample room for charging less. Back then, monthly pool service was going for around $45-$50. But I figured out that if I used part-time workers and kept my overhead very low I could charge only $35 and still make a decent profit. When I began promoting my service at that price, I immediately signed up quite a few customers.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I&#8217;ve used the same strategy to start other businesses. When, for example, I went into ballroom dance instruction, most studios were charging $60 per hour. But I realized that I didn&#8217;t need a studio of my own. By renting space by the hour and also giving private lessons in my clients&#8217; homes, I could charge just $30 an hour. That made dance lessons very affordable for many people who really wanted them, but couldn&#8217;t (or didn&#8217;t want to) pay $60. </font></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">Make sure your customers know that the quality will still be there.</font></strong></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Many small businesses have extra &quot;fat&quot; they can trim in order to cut their prices. But before you try to use this strategy to steal market share from your competitors, you have to make sure you can deliver the same quality for the lower price. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">The first thing people will worry about when they see your bargain price is that they&#8217;ll be getting less in terms of quality and/or service. And if you can&#8217;t deliver, your customers will quickly leave you. One way to reassure them is to itemize everything they&#8217;ll be getting for the price so they can compare it to what your competitors are offering. (That&#8217;s what I did with the swimming pool business.) You should also offer a money-back guarantee. That is a good way to make your customers feel confident that you will offer high-quality products and services.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Undercutting your competitor&#8217;s prices is an admittedly aggressive strategy. But the business world is a harsh one&#8230; especially in this economy. If you want to prosper, you&#8217;ve got to be &quot;Street Smart.&quot; </font></p>

With the Internet, we are exposed to a lot more information than ever before. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">While this can be a good thing – it also means we are susceptible to information overload. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Information overload inspires “inaction”. It kills creativity and leads to procrastination.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">There’s got to be a way to deal with information overload</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">And in this article – Michael Masterson shows you how. </font></p>
<p><em><b><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></b></em></p>
<p><em><b><font color="#000080" size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;One of the effects of living with electric information is that we live habitually in a state of information overload. There&#8217;s always more than you can cope with.&quot;&quot;</font></b></em></p>
<p><strong><font color="#000080" size="2" face="Verdana">Marshall McLuhan</font></strong></p>
<h4><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">Information Overload: How to Escape the Crush</font></strong></h4>
<p><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>By</strong><b> </b><strong><a href="http://clicks.earlytorise.com/t/AQ/F5M/Gxg/DQQ/Ag/Ab-23w/Pd1D" class="liexternal" target="_blank">Michael Masterson</a><a href="http://clicks.earlytorise.com/t/AQ/F5M/Gxg/DQQ/Aw/Ab-23w/dnxD" class="liexternal" target="_blank"></a></strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Stanley Bergen has a problem. As a regular reader of ETR and a new member of the Oxford Club, he&#8217;s getting so much good stuff from us (he&#8217;s especially interested in learning how to &quot;eliminate some debt&quot; and retire one day) that he &quot;can&#8217;t figure out what to read.&quot;</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;Don&#8217;t get me wrong,&quot; he says. &quot;I love ETR and the Oxford Club publications, and I look forward to reading them. But it&#8217;s too much information all at once.&quot;</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;What should I do?&quot; he asks.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">What should any of us do?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">We live in a world that is absolutely flooded with information. Consider these facts:</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· The average person receives 32 e-mail messages per day.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· There is enough scientific information written every day to fill seven complete sets of the <em>Encyclopedia Britannica</em>.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· The world&#8217;s production of print, film, optical, and magnetic content in just one year would require roughly 5 exabytes (5 trillion megabytes) of storage, about 800 megabytes per person.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">So if you &#8211; like Stan Bergen &#8211; are feeling overwhelmed by information, you&#8217;re not alone. Information overload is a serious problem for just about everyone.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;One of the most anxiety-inducing side effects of the information era,&quot; Richard Saul Wurman says in <em><b><a href="http://clicks.earlytorise.com/t/AQ/F5M/Gxg/K2o/AQ/Ab-23w/yxot" class="liexternal" target="_blank">Information Anxiety</a></b></em>&quot; is the feeling that you have to know it all.&quot; That is especially true for smart, ambitious people &#8211; people who want to improve their lives and realize that getting the right information is a big part of success.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">As an ETR reader, that probably means you.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">When you begin a new project or become interested in a new idea, do you have an insatiable desire to learn more about it? Do you find yourself buying &#8211; and reading &#8211; every book, report, newsletter, and magazine you can find on the subject? (That&#8217;s what I do.)</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">In the beginning, it feels great. You are riding high. Then, all of a sudden, you realize that you&#8217;ve become an information junkie. You&#8217;ve been spending so much time reading about whatever it is you want to do that you don&#8217;t have any time left to actually do it. You feel like crying for help.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Bob Bly calls this &quot;analysis paralysis.&quot;</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;All the information you are taking in has overloaded your circuits,&quot; he says. &quot;You can&#8217;t process it all, sort through it, and figure out what to do first. So, instead, you do nothing. You take no action &#8211; other than to order yet another course or report to read.&quot;</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Does any of this sound familiar?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Bob has a formula for preventing analysis paralysis. He calls it the 25-50-25 rule. It is based on the fact that there are only three ways to learn a process (e.g., how to start an Internet business) or a skill (e.g., copywriting): studying, observing, and doing.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">The 25-50-25 rule says that you must divide your time as follows:</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· No more than 25 percent of your time studying &#8211; i.e., reading books, attending workshops, listening to instructional CDs in your car.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· No more than 25 percent of your time observing &#8211; watching what successful people are already doing.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· At least 50 percent of your time actually DOING the thing you are studying and observing.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">For example, if you want to sell information products on the Internet, you would spend 25 percent of your time studying material on the way it&#8217;s done, 25 percent of your time observing the way other people are doing it, and 50 percent of your time creating your first product&#8230; designing your website&#8230; and building your list.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I like Bob&#8217;s rule because it emphasizes action. And when I found out about it, I wondered if it could be applied to my daily working life. In thinking about it, I concluded that it depended greatly on what sort of work I was doing. If I was learning a new skill, Bob&#8217;s rule seemed to apply. But when I was going about my normal workday activities &#8211; creating new products and growing businesses &#8211; my time was spent very differently.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">My daily working life, I realized, has three common components:</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· Gathering information</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· Analyzing that information and using it to make plans</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">· Taking action</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I tend to do my information gathering at specific times. I read newspapers in the early morning, magazines during breaks, and e-mail at the end of the day. I read to encounter useful ideas. I analyze those ideas both as I&#8217;m reading them and later on, at odd moments throughout the day. I spend most of my workday &#8211; about 80 percent of it &#8211; taking action. The rest of my time &#8211; 20 percent &#8211; is devoted to gathering information, analyzing it, and making plans.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I like that 80 percent number. It corresponds with Pareto&#8217;s Law &#8211; the 80/20 rule that you can apply to just about everything.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I decided to ask some of the most successful people I know (from many different industries and countries) the following questions:</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">1. How much time each day do you work?     <br />2. How much of that time do you spend gathering and analyzing information?      <br />3. How much of that time do you spend planning?      <br />4. How much of your day do you spend taking action?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Only half a dozen have responded so far, but their answers are interesting. In terms of hours worked, it ranges from 4.5 to 12, with an average of 9. In terms of planning, the range extends from 15 minutes to 90 minutes, with an average of 45. Time devoted to information gathering ranges from 90 minutes to 3 hours, with an average of 145 minutes.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Those numbers correspond to mine. A typical workday for me is 10 hours long, with an hour and a half devoted to gathering information and 45 minutes devoted to some form of planning.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">That&#8217;s not a ton of time for inputs. And that means the minutes I spend each day taking in information must be absolutely golden.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">What I didn&#8217;t expect to get from my brief survey were the comments and insights my colleagues have been sharing. They&#8217;ve not only told me how they spend their time, but have offered tricks and techniques for getting more done, faster.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Responses are still coming in. When I get all of them, I&#8217;ll be sure to make them available to you. So keep reading ETR for more details.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Next week, I&#8217;ll give you a clear and useful strategy for reading all that information you&#8217;re being bombarded with, to help you sort through the clutter. While you&#8217;re waiting for solutions, compare the way you allocate your time to the numbers above that I&#8217;ve already collected.</font></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Let me ask you a question. Out of the 24 hours a day all of us have, how many hours of the day are we actually engaged in work?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">And I mean full-on, no-holds-barred, productive work?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">After we minus off the sleep hours…breaks we take…distractions we face…what we may essentially have left over for work could only be about 7 hours…or less!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">In some of my previous posts, I talked about how to boost our productivity through managing our energy and working habits.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">If we want to take a step further…we have to learn to replace ourselves.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Meaning getting others to do the work for us. And I don’t just mean outsource…</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I mean to <strong>automate</strong> as much as we can. I’m huge huge believer of automation. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Think about traffic lights…and how it has replaced policeman directing traffic on the road. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Think about ATMs…and how it allow us to withdraw/deposit cash without the need to go through a bank employee.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">It’s faster…more efficient..and effective!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Here’s a tool I use&#8230;</span><a href="http://www.WinAutomation.com" class="liexternal" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">WinAutomation</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">…and a short video on how it works:</span></p>
<p><object width="480" height="385" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/Pc-Rh3yMVzM&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Pc-Rh3yMVzM&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">The <strong>TIME…and MONEY</strong> you will save will make the whole experience worthwhile.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I’m not done yet. But I’ll leave it here for now. More to come on how you can benefit from automation!</span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I only came to be aware of this tool recently.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">      </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">And to think this tool is a free one – from MSN AdCenter Labs. The name is “Audience Intelligence”. It’s seems like a lot of us are pre-occupied with the power tools at Google, that we forget that MSN AdCenter do also have potent “weapons” of their own.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><strong>Okay…here’s what this tool does</strong> – it helps you predict whether there is a commercial intent of an online visitor. Are they looking to buy something? Or just looking for information?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">This is huge. Because if you are doing business online, and want the greatest return on your investment – your immediate target will be the crowd that are <strong><em>ALREADY</em></strong> set to buy.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">This video shows how it works. Watch it now…</span></p>

<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">So much so that many marketers, especially newbies, are immobilized by the sheer volume of information that is shoved forcefully into their already pitiful brain. Choke filled with information that they can’t absorb.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Then what happens? </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Because of this “<strong>analysis paralysis</strong>”, they don’t take action. They don’t implement. All they care is finding out more information to feed their “need-to-know-more” desire.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">But the “knowledge” they have gained amounts to nothing. </font><font size="2" face="Verdana">When there is no execution. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Worse yet – instead of clarity &#8211; sometimes it leads to more confusion. And more clutter.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">You find that familiar? </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">So today – I’m going to break down the process of marketing into simplified terms. However make no mistakes about it. </font></p>
<p><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>When I say “simple”,</strong> it doesn’t mean online marketing is simple. And it easy to get rich quick (which I think full of B.S!). </font></p>
<p><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana">Far from it. Plenty of smart…<em><strong>AND</strong></em>…hard work are required. Especially at the start.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">So if anyone tells you it is easy and you hardly need to lift a finger – do him and yourself a favor…give him a smack to wake him up!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Alright. Enough of the talk. Without further ado, let me present to you my…</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p align="center"><font color="#800000" size="4" face="Verdana"><strong>4 Step Marketing Workflow</strong></font></p>
<p align="center"><strong><font color="#800000" size="2" face="Verdana"></font></strong></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="4 Step Marketing Workflow" border="0" alt="4 Step Marketing Workflow" src="http://emoneymarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/4stepmarketingworkflow4.png" width="437" height="311" /> </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">So you may look at the chart and think what the heck does this mean?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Let me explain…</font></p>
<p><font size="2"></font><font face="Verdana"><strong>First off, move your attention to the right side</strong> of the chart.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="sales = traffic x conversion" border="0" alt="sales = traffic x conversion" src="http://emoneymarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/image.png" width="162" height="240" /> </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Selling online can be equated to the following formula:</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p align="center"><font color="#800000" size="4" face="Verdana"><strong>Sales = Traffic x Conversions.</strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>If you have 100 visitors</strong>, and 1% conversion, you have 1 sales.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">If you have 100 visitors, and 10% conversion, you have 10 sales.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>If you have 200 visitors</strong> and 10% conversion, you got 20 sales.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">If you have 200 visitors and 20% conversion, you have <strong><u>40 sales</u></strong>!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Make sense?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I’ve explained this concept before in my one of my previous entries, so you may already be familiar with it. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">If not, this example should make it crystal clear.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Now from this example, it’s pretty easy to see one thing.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>To increase your sales</strong>, you either increase your traffic…or your conversion…or both!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">So do both!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Let’s now move on to the left side of the chart, as we go drill down deeper.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="targeted traffic, copywriting, email marketing, testing, tracking and optimization" border="0" alt="targeted traffic, copywriting, email marketing, testing, tracking and optimization" src="http://emoneymarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/image2.png" width="233" height="301" />&#160;</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">I will explain this left portion in 4 parts:</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>1. Targeted Traffic</strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Not every traffic is created equal.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Traffic from different sources will give you different results.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">What you want to be looking for is quality traffic. Targeted traffic. Prospects that are looking to buy. Prospects that are relevant to your offer.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">There are many sources of traffic you could use. Like articles, videos, social networks, social bookmarking and so on…</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">For me…I always prefer traffic that can come in <strong>fast</strong>…that are <strong>targeted</strong>…and I can have <strong>full control</strong> over. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">You usually have to pay for such traffic. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">When it comes to that…no paid traffic comes better than those from <strong>Google Adwords</strong>.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">With Google Adwords, you have control…power…flexibility. It’s accountable…trackable…and measurable. I love Google Adwords.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>2. Copywriting</strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Let me saying 1 thing…</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Targeted Traffic Is Not Everything! </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Why?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Because the traffic won’t convert if your sales page sucks!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">That’s why I tell my clients. I help them to bring targeted traffic to their web page with Google Adwords.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">But if the sales page is poorly crafted…doesn’t bring out the benefits well…doesn’t adequately trigger the buying emotion of the prospects…then you will just be throwing money down the drain.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">So you need a good sales copy. You want higher conversions? Then constantly seek to improve your sales copy.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">And it doesn’t end there.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><strong><font size="2" face="Verdana">3. Email Marketing</font></strong></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">You want to be capturing leads. Most people won’t buy. If you got a 5% conversion…you are doing EXTREMELY well.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">What about the rest of the 95% traffic that don’t buy? Are you going to let them go? Without even knowing who they are? </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">They may not buy now…but does that mean they won’t buy in future? </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Capturing your prospects details and following up with them is absolutely crucial to your business.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Email marketing is the best way to build up your list. The list is your most valuable business asset.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">As the proverbial saying goes &#8211; “The money is in the goddammmmm LIST!”</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Very true. Indeed.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>4. Testing, Tracking &amp; Optimization</strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Jay Abraham, the marketing grand-daddy of grand-daddies, wisely says, “The only risk you can take is an inexpensive test”.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Test what you may ask?</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">All your sales variables!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">You can be testing…</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Traffic sources</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Headlines (sales copy)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Offer (sales copy)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Benefits (sales copy)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Guarantee (sales copy)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Postscript (sales copy)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Bonuses (sales copy)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Keywords (Google Adwords)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Ad Copy (Google Adwords)</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Verdana">Site placement (Google Adwords)…</font></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Tons of things you can test!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">We test because we do not know for sure what works until we validate it.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">And only with testing, can you know what is working well. And that allows you to work on that winning (control) element to give you better results.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Optimization helps put more money into your account.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">When you know what doesn’t works for you…you take it out. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">That saves you money. You don’t waste money on ads that don’t work.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Testing is crucial. And you need to be tracking the results. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">When you get the results, you start optimizing based on it.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><strong>It’s the constant pursuit of perfection</strong>. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">While you will NEVER be perfect…you can still strive to reach perfection. It’s the process of constant improvement that will take your business to a higher level.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Alright. I hope these make sense to you. Concentrate on these areas and you will do well. Guaranteed!</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">As usual, let me know your thoughts.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana">All success,</font></p>
