The Secret Of Buzz Marketing

 

On November 14th, I wrote:

 

"This free report is very good except the JV part. My advice to you is take this whole idea of "The Death Of..." presentation with a pinch of salt ((in the short term)). Honestly, the author is just playing a game of influence. Why do I say this?

Because it is not beneficial for those who are willing to change their way of thinking to give up halfway in their current projects and restart again. Whatever your current projects are, they should be stepping stones towards the ideas this author is presenting. That's natural progress. Whatever your goals are, if they are MORE urgent and important than what the report says, complete them, and leverage on the results to step up to the next level.

The author, the same guy who said that one of the biggest JV mistake is to "insult the marketer by telling him how he is going to get rich by making this amount of $ with this % of conversion" in the report "The World's Most Shocking JV Mistakes", has stepped up, so don't disturb him with JVs. Why? Because he feels spoilt for choices and has no positive vocabulary to express himself than to thump those who needs to eat rice.

Perhaps he's in Barclays Premier League, but we are still stuck at Division 2. So what? There will always be dime sales, firesales and Frugal Fridays. The flea market will always have its own flea audience, and we will continue to "sleep around with one another's sisters" (page 8). The author has not addressed "The Resurrection Of The Flea Market" because he has not realized flea markets also have their own evolving dynamics to make themselves relevant. Marketers continue to choose the way they make money by catering to a market they feel comfortable with, one that is compatible to their level of thought.

True, trends will evolve, and the report is definitely prophetic, with great elements of Rich Schefren's IBM ideas in it, but the moment the author promotes for another marketer, the JV part can be forgettable.

MONEY HAS NO EYES. IF ANYONE CAN MAKE IT, SO CAN...I.

My words, my responsibility. - Nelson"

Thomas enquired:

 

"That's pretty low using a sexual subject line to get people to open your e-mails. I thought you were classy marketers. There must be some mistake, suggesting incest sexual relations with sisters. You just lost my respect as a fellow marketer. Explain."

Dear Thomas,

I reckon there will be a few replies but I am glad to discuss with fellow subscribers, knowing that they are human beings too.

First, it has nothing to do with Justin. I am sorry that you would feel offended by the headline, despite the fact that I wrote it 1) as a reaction to what the author has written, 2) in context of what the author has written, 3) based on assumption (wrong!) that my subscribers have already read what the author has written.

In the ultimate case that the author is much successful than me, I admit I could not hold a candle in argument and achievement. However, if anyone should think I'm "taking issue personally", actually no. A free report like this is a 'great' moment of buzz marketing; you can take advantage to approve or disprove of the content if you are given a legitimate space to air your views, in which case I even published word for word in the author's blog. It was printed as a comment, with my name and link on it *gasp*. Does anyone think I did this recklessly?

Thomas, you are right: it may be quite a low blow, but a publicity stunt nonetheless, if you dare execute such a flip. Buzz marketing does not always work, less so in niche marketing. The creator of buzz runs the risk of having it backfire on himself, unless he has something strong and certain to say.

Years ago, I was taught and trained to "think opposite" whenever possible: resist against herd mentality. If most people go left, you go right. My last mail is an example of such an application, and I don't think it is the first one. I also learned that a matter at hand need not always be judged as right or wrong, but empowering or limiting. A moment of buzz is surely influence successfully applied. The author started a game which other marketers played right into it, and perhaps even built subscriber base for him. Whether he reads my comment or not does not matter. If he takes issue with me...he played into my game.

Just last week, a friend said to me Internet Marketing is all "a game of fast ideas moving round and round". I could not agree more, not only because leaders move fast, but also slow movers get agitated, Oil is added onto fire when not only new methods of online marketing are pushed as new flavours, but old methods are promptly declared dead just when everyone else is still working on them. Whether the new methods are ultimately effective or not is entirely another matter.

I also understand that by opting in, my subscribers give me a vote of confidence. That gives me the responsibility to look after you :) At the same time, my wish is that through my contribution, you can tune yourself up to become highly aware of Internet Marketing trends and changes, to discern and think critically, to sift through pointless information and extract the useful ones. The author wrote something pessimistic about the state of joint ventures (the sister part), I simply disagree in a way.

Women? Dear me, women account for as much as 80% of Internet purchases any time of the year. Without Eve, Adam will shrink! In "Chapter 10: Power Of The Mastermind: The Driving Force" of Napoleon Hill's Think And Grow Rich, it is written: "Money is as shy and elusive as the 'old time maiden'. It must be wooed and won by methods not unlike those used by a determined lover, in pursuit of the girl of his choice." Now I don't know what Napoleon was thinking about women as he wrote the statement, but it seems like the prophecy is true and has always been.

To all ladies who took offence, I am sorry. You may not purchase from me this Christmas season :) I apologize for the mishandling of my personal power and tongue on this occasion. For better or worse, notoriety or prestige, to a better 2007!

Essential Notes:

1) In most cases, think of how you can incorporate and apply helpful ideas gleaned from the information presented in "The Human Inter-dependency Dynamics" section within your immediate surroundings, particularly how you conduct your online business with others and your masterminding groups.

2) All 'self-development' techniques and strategies should be exercised under 100% of your own responsibility and within your best discretion. Although Internet Mastery Center aims to push the frontier by presenting interesting reports on attaining peak performance of the mind, it should not be held liable for undesirable results and neither should you personally recommend all presented techniques and strategies in Internet Mastery Center's name. If you know certain techniques and strategies go against your personal values, belief system and/or conscience, DO NOT CONTINUE to practice them.
