<p>You have used the same straightforward, textbook strategies for marketing ever since you can remember. They have worked for you and product sales show it.</p>
<p>While you enjoy steady growth and profitable returns, none of your campaigns have ever paid off in a huge way. There are no household names to your credit even though some of your products are more than worthy.</p>
<p><strong><br />
What’s the problem?</strong><br />
<span id="more-347"></span><br />
<a href="http://ibmm.com/delaverianmarketing" target="_blank"><img title="Visit this site to download the free 88-pages report." src="http://ibmm.com/images/delaverianization-free-report.jpg" alt="Free report from John Delavera" align="right" /></a><br />
<em><strong>Chances are your marketing strategies are sound, but not spectacular. </strong></em>If you’re doing what you learned in school or are just following tried and tested practices you learned in the field, you are likely only appealing to consumers from a single angle. Rather than really reaching them and compelling them to act, you’re just nudging them in the right direction. This can be effective, but it will fall short of helping drive products or services to the very top.</p>
<p>Some of the best-known and biggest products on the market are not necessarily the highest in quality or the best in value. Still, they manage to sell at an incredible pace even when bettercompetition is out there.</p>
<p><strong>The marketers behind these products are likely employing strategies that are very different than yours. </strong>They are influencing and guiding people to purchase by targeting them at different levels.</p>
<p><strong>There are secrets out that can turn your marketing efforts upside down in a very good way.</strong> When you think beyond the textbook and learn to reach people on multiple levels, your marketing efforts will not fall short.</p>

What if you could use this list to pump up your campaigns? What if you could use this list to boost your sales? What if ...?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera"><img title="John Delavera" src="http://ibmm.com/images/John-Delavera.jpg" alt="JohnDelavera" width="157" height="198" align="right" /></a>by <a title="John Delavera" href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera" target="_blank">John Delavera</a></p>
<p>On the surface, most marketing campaigns appear alike. They mainly rely on the same advertising vehicles, involve the same types of agencies and tend to cost a fair amount of money no matter what.</p>
<p><strong>Why is it then that some campaigns turn companies into near overnight successes and others just fail to make the grade?</strong> How is it that some companies with fairly average products can become household names, but companies with better products and even pricing might not even register as a blip on consumers’ radars?</p>
<p>In most cases, it all comes down to the techniques that were employed in the campaign. Common techniques can and do make sales. This is why they have become common. They do not, however, break records or catapult products to the top of sales charts. These techniques are simply missing the edge that others can provide. <span id="more-343"></span></p>
<p><strong>If you want to see your business grow, the techniques used in your marketing will matter. </strong>Go with standard, straightforward tactics and your business will likely see results. Think on a deeper, more creative level and the impact will likely blow away expectations.</p>
<p>Consider some of the world’s most successful companies and the products they have to offer. The biggest burger chains do not necessarily have the best burgers in the world. The greatest selling sneakers might not be the most comfortable. The hottest rock bands might hurt people’s ears. Despite these things, the products they offer sell and they sell well.</p>
<p>So, how do they do it? The companies that are found at the pinnacle of their own industries tend to use marketing techniques that are slightly different. While their advertisements might only seem slightly slicker than others, there is more to their strategy than that.</p>
<p><strong>Companies that succeed in their marketing efforts tend to appeal to people through:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Symbols</strong> – Their logos and advertising designs might appeal to people through symbolism. Whether it is a blatant effort or simply by chance, the right logos can reach out to people on the subconscious level. When the right message is received, people will respond.</li>
<li><strong>Inborn responses</strong> – People, just like all other animals, are born with certain things that they respond to. When marketing triggers innate programming, people take notice. They will sometimes do so whether they want to or not.</li>
<li><strong>Emotions</strong> – Appeal to people on an emotional level and they will be sold. When natural emotions are triggered through marketing efforts, people will tend to gravitate toward a product. If marketing makes people believe a product will make their family happy, provide them personal satisfaction, deliver fun, smiles, sex appeal or what have you, sales will follow.</li>
</ul>

Tried and true marketing techniques can build up your company and its product sales in a modest way. If it is time to take efforts to the next level, appealing to customers in a different way is a must.</p>
<p><strong>When campaigns reach out to people’s emotions, their inborn wiring or even their trust of certain symbols, the sky is often the limit.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera"><img title="John Delavera" src="http://ibmm.com/images/John-Delavera.jpg" alt="JohnDelavera" width="157" height="198" align="right" /></a>by <a title="John Delavera" href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera" target="_blank">John Delavera</a></p>
<p>There are marketing companies across the globe that do a very good job and help their clients see real results.</p>
<p>There are not many, however, that can claim powerhouse, household-name campaigns and products to their credit.</p>
<p>The reason for this is generally found in the approach the best of the best take to marketing.  Experts that cultivate marketing for some of the world’s best-known companies and products tend to know a few secrets that others do not. They approach marketing in a wholly different way and reach out to consumers on a different level.  <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>So, why is it that some marketing efforts produce good results, but others catapult products into the public eye and hold them there? </strong> <span id="more-338"></span> The answer is often found in what typical marketing campaigns might lack. While they can and do make sales and have a positive impact on a company, they often lack in the features that can really make them shine. The reality is that for serious, runaway successes to occur, marketing must go beyond the safe, standard and tried-and-tested.  <strong>Even the best of standard marketing campaigns might fail to attract the attention desired because they often do not:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Take a holistic approach</strong> – Marketing a single product is often not enough to really sell it. Even if the campaign is solid, it can fall short if the company is not included in the mix. Some of the best-known marketing efforts nationally and even internationally are far reaching in nature. They promote not only a particular product, but also a company and even a way of life. Image and people’s perception of that image are everything in successful marketing. Successful products and their makers are synonymous by design, not chance.</li>
<li><strong>Take chances</strong> – Many marketing campaigns are designed to play it safe. The goal is to sell a product; not catapult it into every household possible. Risk-taking is a way of life for some of the most successful companies. Their campaigns go beyond the tested and the results show. If cards have been played right on the holistic approach to advertising, even a bad campaign can produce positive results.</li>
<li><strong>Reach out on multiple levels</strong> – Safe marketing campaigns will often sell a product solely on its merits. Advertisements and commercials speak to the features and appeal to consumers’ logic. These campaigns can and do sell, but they are not likely to produce huge results. To really enjoy success, marketing efforts must reach out to people on levels that go beyond logic and reason. Appealing to people’s emotions, the things that influence them and even the symbols they trust and recognize can make all the difference in the world. Highly successful marketers know these things and plan accordingly.</li>
</ul>

Average campaigns, however, are not likely to take a product and make it an incredible success. Standard marketing fails on this front because it lacks the ability to sell on multiple levels.  <strong>The world’s best marketers know how to sell not only products, but also emotions and even lifestyles.</strong> You don&#8217;t need to be frustrated about meager results from your &#8216;tradtitional&#8217; marketing anymore, <a title="Delaverian Marketing" href="http://ibmm.com/delaverianmarketing" target="_blank">click here to get your free 88 pages blueprint</a> for scientifically proven marketing strategies.</p>

<p><strong>Successfully marketing a product on a grand scale involves more than just selling that particular item.</strong> To enjoy real returns, image matters. From the product packaging all the way up to the “persona” of the company that created it, skillful marketing campaigns will sell more than the item in question.</p>
<p>They will sell consumers on <strong>an image, a lifestyle or even a dream.</strong></p>
<p>Mastering the ability to build, boost and sell image takes time, effort and an understanding of human nature. There are secrets about people that have been long known and used successfully by the best marketers out there. Many of these secrets are obvious once they are revealed, but they are not necessarily easy to hone in on with a campaign.<!--more<br />

<p>Still, there are some who have mastered the art to their advantage. From Madison Avenue to Hollywood, the real pros in advertising do not necessarily sell products; they sell an image. They do this by appealing to people on a very different level than traditional marketing campaigns are able to reach. The effort can involve great risk, but with it can come great rewards.</p>
<p>When it’s time to take marketing beyond the norm, learning how to sell an image can make a real difference.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Today John introduces a marketing technique that's completely unheard of in our internet marketing niche. It taps into your customers deepest un-conscious patterns and conditioning, without them ever realizing it. Wouldn't you want to use such a powerful tool for yourself?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera"><img title="John Delavera" src="http://ibmm.com/images/John-Delavera.jpg" alt="JohnDelavera" width="157" height="198" align="right" /></a>by <a title="John Delavera" href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera" target="_blank">John Delavera</a><br />
Marketing is a very tricky game that most people tend to prefer to play safe.</p>
<p>While tried and tested efforts can gain results, they generally will not turn companies into household names on a national or international level. When something more is desired, <strong>companies can learn a thing or two from the ancient and not-so-ancient past</strong>.</p>
<p>Consider some of <strong>the most successful companies</strong> in the marketplace today. No matter the type or types of products these companies offer, they all <strong>tend to have something beyond their powerhouse status in common</strong>.</p>
<p><span id="more-328"></span><br />
<strong>So, what is that thing?</strong></p>
<p>It happens to be the use of signs and symbols in their marketing campaigns. Think of any company that is at the top of its field and chances are strong that it will be readily identifiable by its symbols alone.</p>
<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/delaverianmarketing" target="_blank"><img title="Visit this site to download the free 88-pages report." src="http://ibmm.com/images/delaverianization-free-report.jpg" alt="Free report from John Delavera" align="left" /></a>Companies that enjoy success on a major level do not necessarily have to have their names stated in commercials and other marketing efforts, their signs and symbols speak for themselves. Anyone who doubts this need only consider the companies that are recognizable to toddlers. Toy companies, cereal brands and even sandwich and French fry joints will all make youngsters who cannot even read jump up and down for joy when their symbols are seen. The products might not even be a child’s favorites, but a response will be elicited nonetheless.</p>
<p><strong>Why is this?</strong></p>
<p>Long before there was written language, there were symbols. Humans have moved in a world where certain symbols stand for specific things. In many cases, symbols are also tied to strong emotions or subconscious responses. When companies capitalize on the use of the right symbols in their own marketing people tend to take notice without even noticing they are doing so.</p>
<p><strong>Consider the many symbols out there that elicit positive responses in people. </strong>A checkmark, for example, is a sign for a job well done or completed. It makes people happy and gives them a sense of accomplishment. Olive branches and doves are signs of peace. An image of a lion stands for strength and loyalty. The examples go on and on.</p>
<p>When companies take familiar symbols that have positive meanings in the eyes of clients, alter them and make them their own, they can reach out to consumers on an emotional level. Some companies have also managed to create their own unique symbols and give positive meaning to them through tactical marketing campaigns. Regardless, the symbols, just like a checkmark on a homework assignment, have come to represent certain emotions and elicit specific reactions from consumers.</p>
<p>While not all highly successful companies have learned to tap into the power of symbols and their ability to say more without actual words, many have. When logos, product packaging designs and advertising efforts use the right symbols and manage to attach the right meanings to those symbols, household name status can follow.</p>
<p>Standard marketing efforts can go a long way in helping companies enjoy modest success. When going beyond is the goal, marketing needs to take on a different strategy. Reaching out to customers through symbols and speaking to them on the subconscious level can provide the impetus needed to turn a good company into a great one.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Why do business owners with great products fail, while others have a huge success selling the worst products you can think of? What do you need to do to boost YOUR product sales? Find out all about this important aspect as John Delavera explores 'Why Marketing Is Imperative For Your Business Success.' ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera"><img title="John Delavera" src="http://ibmm.com/images/John-Delavera.jpg" alt="JohnDelavera" width="157" height="198" align="right" /></a>by <a title="John Delavera" href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera" target="_blank">John Delavera</a><br />
<strong>Is this you? </strong>Your company makes the best product of its kind in the world. You know this and are sure of it. Considering that fact, you see no real reason to put a lot of money into marketing. You are convinced the product will speak for itself.</p>
<p><strong>Do not fool yourself.</strong> You could, in fact, have the best, most affordable, highest performing product of its type on the entire planet and still not make a single sale. If you do not take the time to talk up your product and market it to people, they simply will not buy. People have to be sold on an item to actually make the purchase. It is that simple.</p>
<p>Marketing is an imperative expense for any successful business. While there are many types of marketing that can pay off, some efforts will show bigger results than others. Even if your product does speak for itself to an extent and you gain word of mouth and referral advertising from customers as a result, it is still vital to back this up with constant reminders.</p>
<p>Stop for a moment to think about companies that have become known and trusted on an international level with their products and services. People instantly recognize their logos, their products and even their packaging schemes without the need for further marketing. Still, these companies continue to run television and radio commercials, they buy newspaper and magazine advertisements and they might even sponsor very public events. They know they have to remain in the public eye to stay on top of their game. Even if they have reached the level of being the best of the best in regard to sales, they will not ease up on marketing.</p>
<p>The biggest companies in the country or even across the planet may not even offer the highest quality products for the price, but they get the business nonetheless thanks to the advertising efforts they employ.</p>
<p><strong>Why is this so?</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/delaverianmarketing" target="_blank"><img title="Visit this site to download the free 88-pages report." src="http://ibmm.com/images/delaverianization-free-report.jpg" alt="Free report from John Delavera" align="left" /></a>It often boils down to the fact that the world’s biggest companies have learned a few marketing secrets that you may not know about. While standard marketing efforts will produce good results, they generally will not propel a product to the pinnacle of its industry. Extremely successful companies run marketing campaigns that go well beyond the standard and they use techniques you and your marketers might not be aware of.</p>
<p><strong>What is it that successful companies and their marketers know that you might not?</strong></p>
<p>It all comes down to how marketing efforts reach out to consumers. Great campaigns not only sell products, they also sell emotions, speak to people on a subconscious level and even compel them to buy using the techniques of influence. While the television commercials and magazine advertisements used by the business elite might look reasonably similar to the ones you have considered, their efforts tend to reach people on a different level and they continue to do so through reinforcing campaigns.</p>
<p>It is possible to make sales without employing marketing campaigns. If you want to see your business really succeed, however, advertising will be a must. To enjoy even greater success, it pays to delve into the secrets that the big boys know and you might have overlooked.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[How come that some marketing strategies work effectively in promoting common products while the conventional and logical approach lags behind? The answer lies in the kind of marketing method that creates an appeal to the subconscious or emotion of people. Read John Delavera's article about how emotions can make sales and get his free 88 page blueprint, jam packed with internet marketing wisdom.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera"><img title="John Delavera" src="http://ibmm.com/images/John-Delavera.jpg" alt="JohnDelavera" width="157" height="198" align="right" /></a>by <a title="John Delavera" href="http://ibmm.com/johndelavera" target="_blank">John Delavera</a><br />
Purchase a particular brand of cereal and your children will think you’re the best parent ever. Use a specific shaving product and you’ll exude sex appeal. Shop at a certain store and you’ll enjoy the lifestyle of your dreams.</p>
<p><strong>Logic dictates that these things simply are not so, but marketing campaigns that work are built around these concepts.<br />
<span id="more-313"></span></strong></p>
<p>People buy into them and prove it with their expenditures of choice all the time.</p>
<p>Why is it that these marketing campaigns work even for average products when more reasonable, straightforward and traditional methods might fall short?</p>
<p><strong>The simple fact of the matter is that marketing campaigns that appeal to people on an emotional, or subconscious, level can have a huge impact. </strong>When they are successful, logic may tell consumers one thing, but their emotions will drive them forward to act any way.</p>
<p>People are simply wired to respond to certain cues. When the triggers for these cues are tripped through marketing campaigns or other efforts, people will act.</p>
<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/delaverianmarketing" target="_blank"><img title="Visit this site to download the free 88-pages report." src="http://ibmm.com/images/delaverianization-free-report.jpg" alt="Free report from John Delavera" align="left" /></a>The secrets of marketing successfully in this manner are not necessarily easy to learn. If they were, every product out there would be a top seller. When the right lessons are studied, however, marketing campaigns can bowl over the competition thanks to the power of emotional appeals.</p>

This article gives you ready to use list of fast action items you can do TODAY to break into the inner circle of the highly successful internet marketers.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://ibmm.com/turbomembership" target="_blank"><img title="Join the inner circle of highly successful internet marketers at John Delavera's Turbomembership." src="http://ibmm.com/images/innercircle.jpg" alt="" width="280" height="280" align="right" /></a>Probably 95% of all internet businesses are &#8216;1 man shows&#8217;, but very few people realize that a one-person internet business on its own isn&#8217;t going to make  you a  fortune.</strong></p>
<p>To achieve the number of subscribers and customers that will finance your freedom, you need to build a network of peers and you need to get the help of people who already are on higher levels of success.</p>
<p>Now, obviously every marketer would like to get the support of the big guys - but how do you pull it off?</p>
<p>After all, a highly successful online entrepreneur will rarely have the time to pay attention to any individual on his list of hundreds of thousands of subscribers.</p>
<p>The good news is: you have to work on it a bit, but it isn&#8217;t really hard to make contact to the super successful people in your industry. <span id="more-291"></span></p>
<p><strong>As with all laws of success, the </strong><strong>underlying principle is pretty simple and easy to understand:</strong></p>
<p>===&gt; <strong>You need to build a relationship, a friendship at best.</strong></p>
<p>This article shares a range of action-tips you can implement today to get noticed by the top guys.</p>
<h2>Who should you target for networking?</h2>
<h3>1. Target marketers you like.</h3>
<p>Chose those that are successful and a match to you in regards of how they conduct their business. If you target someone who uses questionable strategies just because he&#8217;s successful, you will not be happy with the &#8216;friendship&#8217; in the long run. And, following that guru&#8217;s advice, you&#8217;re very likely to steer your business in the wrong direction.</p>
<h3>2. Target marketers whose business model is close to what you want to do.</h3>
<p>That&#8217;s pretty self-explanatory, isn&#8217;t it? If you want to make money in the  &#8216;make money online&#8217; niche, you&#8217;re not really going to need good relations to the top dogs in the porn industry.</p>
<h3>3. Target marketers on different scales of success.</h3>
<p>You may not get the fastest results only targeting those on the top of the food chain. Start building relationships on many levels at the same time.</p>
<h3>4. Join small scale communities and target the OWNER.</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s easier to get noticed in a small community.</p>
<p><strong>Here are 3 examples from the internet marketing niche:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li> The <a title="The largest internet marketing forum." href="http://ibmm.com/warriorforum" target="_blank">warrior forum</a>, owned by Allen Says, has 133,000 members.</li>
<li><a title="Turbocommunity is not only a forum, it's part of Turbomembership." href="http://ibmm.com/turbomembership/" target="_blank">Turbocommunity</a>, owned by John Delavera, has 3,000 members.</li>
<li><a title="Willie Crawford's Inner Circle" href="http://ibmm.com/williecrawfordinnercircle" target="_blank">TheInternetMarketingInnerCircle</a> , owned by Willie Crawford, has 450 members.</li>
</ul>
<p>Who&#8217;s attention is easier to get?</p>
<p>Allen Says&#8217;s, who has a six figure member base?</p>
<p>Or Wilie Crawford&#8217;s, and John Delavera&#8217;s, who have smaller, intimate communities?</p>
<p>Are all of them super successful entrepreneurs?</p>
<p>You bet!</p>
<p>Check them out and participate in their communities:</p>
<ul>
<li> <a title="The largest internet marketing forum." href="http://ibmm.com/warriorforum" target="_blank">Warrior forum</a></li>
<li><a title="Turbocommunity is not only a forum, it's part of Turbomembership." href="http://ibmm.com/turbomembership/" target="_blank">Turbocommunity</a></li>
<li><a title="Willie Crawford's Inner Circle" href="http://ibmm.com/williecrawfordinnercircle" target="_blank">TheInternetMarketingInnerCircle</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>How To Build The Relationship?</h2>
<h3>1. Seven ways to put yourself on the guru&#8217;s radar.</h3>
<p>Your first goal is to get noticed. Your name needs to show up where these people are naturally looking for new, valuable contacts.</p>
<p>(1) Become a subscriber.<br />
(2) Become a customer.<br />
(3) Become a guest at his Blog.<br />
(4) Become a forum member.<br />
(5) Become a participant at seminars.<br />
(6) Become a member of mastermind groups.<br />
(7) Become a paying mentoree.</p>
<h3>2. Be active, contribute to the marketers efforts.</h3>
<p>Everyone who helps him to make his own projects more successful will get his attention.</p>
<h4>(a)Send testimonials.</h4>
<p>If the marketer has forms for submission of testimonials this is only the second best choice because they may be managed by assistants. Try to find a way to get your testimonial directly to the right person, email preferably.</p>
<h4>(b)Post useful Blog comments.</h4>
<p>If a marketer has his own Blog he&#8217;s usually happy about everyone posting meaningful comments. In many cases the marketer will publicly answer your comment on the Blog to get the discussion going.</p>
<h4>(c) Participate in forum discussions.</h4>
<p><strong>Typical forum problems:</strong><br />
- Too little activity from members.<br />
- Not enough &#8216;active&#8217; moderators.<br />
Any forum owner appreciates people who help to keep momentum in the forum. Answer to a lot of posts and start your own threads. A forum might be the place where you get the first &#8216;personal, 1:1 contact&#8217; to the owner through PMs.</p>
<h3>3. Be proactive and offer help</h3>
<p>(a) Be alert if any help is needed. The marketer might ask for help in a specific area through the forum, through Blog posts or through emails that go to his list.<br />
(b) Offer to moderate in the forum.<br />
(c) Try to find aspects in his business where you can offer help actively. Offer what you&#8217;re good at.</p>
<h2>How To Be Worthy Of Getting Professional Feedback?</h2>
<p>Remember that any successful entrepreneur has a lot of things to take care of, be respectful of their time.</p>
<h3>1. Be a doer, clearly act on the feedback.</h3>
<p>Nothing puts successful entrepreneurs more off than a newbie who demands lots of help, lots of time, and lots of attention without ever putting anything to use. Unfortunately these passive, time stealers are the majority of people entering the internet marketing industry.</p>
<p>Be different. You&#8217;ll quickly earn the respect of any professional if you walk your talk.</p>
<h3>2. Don&#8217;t ask questions that you can easily research yourself.</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s true that there are no dumb questions. It&#8217;s also true that there are beginner&#8217;s questions you can easily figure out yourself without stressing other people&#8217;s time.</p>
<p><strong>Act on that list and you&#8217;ll find yourself in the inner circle of successful marketers within a few weeks.</strong></p>
<p>So what&#8217;s next?</p>
<p>Be a doer.</p>
<p>Start participating right now &#8230; post your comments, questions and ideas below.</p>

<p>Textbook marketing approaches can go a long way toward building product sales and images. They can be just good enough to get noticed, but they might not produce the results you’re after. If you’re ready to go beyond what you learned in school or even by trial and error, there is an area of study worth paying attention to.</p>
<p><strong>What is that area of study? </strong><br />
<span id="more-272"></span></p>
<p>The real secret to marketing success lies in understanding <strong>human beings</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://ibmm.com/delaverianmarketing" target="_blank"><img title="Visit this site to download the free 88-pages report." src="http://ibmm.com/images/delaverianization-free-report.jpg" alt="Free report from John Delavera" align="left" /></a>People are complex creatures that are often compelled to believe they are ruled by their minds, logic and reason. To an extent, this is true.</p>
<p>People, however, are also highly motivated by influences that are much less black and white in nature. They will purchase products and take particular actions if they are appealed to on an emotional or want-based level. Tap into both areas with a marketing campaign and the results can stagger.</p>
<p>Learning how to successfully market in a manner that falls outside the traditional box is not necessarily easy. There are ways to learn the ropes and gain insight from those who have mastered the art of making a decent product one that people will not pass by.</p>
<p>If you are ready to change your marketing approach and take campaigns beyond expectations, human nature and the forces that influence it should be your focus of study.</p>
