It takes skillz to make money…

Posted August 16th, 2010. Filed under Internet Marketing

Mike Filsaime just released a video where he interviews Chris Farrell, about how Chris was able to make $50,000 per month and he has been doing it in…

…LESS THAN TWO YEARS.

Yes, $50K per month—and all in the last 18 months!

Sound hard to believe?

He confessed he knew nothing about the intricacies of Internet Marketing back in 2008. 6 months later, it all clicked together…

See the video and it will all make sense.

There is great content here so make sure to pay attention and watch the whole thing and “take notes” because what you will learn can be applied as soon as you get done.

This is one of the most informative free videos I’ve sent you all year.

Become A Welcomed Guest…Not A Pest by Clate Mask

Posted August 15th, 2010. Filed under Business

Whenever you come into someone’s life, you’ve got the choice: “welcomed guest” or “unwanted pest”. And we all know which one is most likely to make the sale, right?

But let’s face it—most people will not instantly welcome marketers with open arms. Your prospects are busy, and they don’t want to think about you and your products. So, business owners need to learn the tricks of becoming the most popular guest at the party.

First, you need to be consistent in your marketing. The majority of small businesses are inconsistent in their follow-up. They might send an e-mail or direct mail piece and then wait months before sending another one. Without consistency, your prospect has no idea who you are. Can you imagine how quickly e-mails from unknown senders get deleted? Furthermore, inconsistency can cause a perception of ineffectiveness. Nobody wants to buy from a company they don’t trust.

Second, establish your expertise. Too often entrepreneurs, struggling to survive, send e-mails and direct mail pieces simply to promote their products. Now, promoting your products is great. But you need to do a lot more than that with your marketing. Your marketing messages should be positioning you as a respected authority in your industry. Be sure to include testimonials, endorsements, and awards your company has won, along with your sales message. Of the thousands of small businesses I’ve worked with, there’s no doubt that the most successful ones have established themselves as experts.

Third, educate your prospects. Your follow-up must be informative. You need to provide valuable information. If you’re showing up with no value, you’ll wear out your welcome fast. You need to communicate that you are on their side and deserve to be trusted. You’ll accomplish this if you provide them with accurate, insightful information.

Just remember, when your marketing becomes consistent, promotes your expert status, and educates your prospects, you will soon have prospects knocking at your door, rather than you knocking at theirs.

Content is king. It gets to wear the crown. And sit on the throne. And rule the world. When it comes to establishing credibility, gaining trust and producing sales, content is royalty.

While I would never suggest abandoning the concept of delivering high quality content to your subscribers, there is another type of list composed of subscribers who couldn’t care less about content.

“What is this type of list?” you ask.

-> The “announcement list”.

I’ve been teaching about the “announcement” list since at least 2002 (on record at an event). And, yet, it’s a widely untapped asset in most email marketing circles.

The main reason is: nobody’s teaching it. And so, nobody knows anything about it, let alone how to effectively create one of these lists.

So, we’re going to revisit it.

————————————-
What Is An “Announcement” List?
————————————-

DEFINED: An announcement list is a list whose sole purpose is to “announce” (inform, notify) when something new is available for review, consumption or purchase.

In other words, it unapologetically says, “Hey, I just released XYZ. Come check it out!”

Now, at first glance you may be thinking, “Who would join a list that offers no content and only sales pitch?”

If you say it that way, it doesn’t sound too good to me either! That’s why you don’t say it that way. Let’s take a look at HOW to “say it”…

————————————-
How About An Example “Announcement” List?
————————————-

If you go to this site PLRSO Club you’ll find a textbook example of this concept. PLRSO stands for “Private Label Rights Special Offers” I established this list for the sole purpose of informing people anytime I have a new PLR offer available for them to buy.

That’s it.

I don’t send out e-zine articles to them. No newsletters. They don’t get blog posts. There aren’t any special reports. No content of any kind. What they get, in essence, are sales messages.

And there are already 2,822 subscribers, many of which have already purchased some of the PLR special offers that have been “announced” to the list.

Why does it work? Let me give you plenty of reasons…

1. I took something that was “in-demand” (PLR) and I allow people to get a head-start on the world by knowing about new releases FIRST by joining this list.

2. It’s not billed as an “announcement list”, but rather a “Free PLR Club”. Big, big difference in perception.

3. It has it’s own domain name, further adding to the perceived value and importance to those who join.

4. There is no requirement to buy once you join. Buy the offers that you want, pass on the ones you don’t want.

5. A cost example is provided to show what you can buy immediately, further illustrating the value of the complimentary “membership”.

And here’s the big twist that makes this idea of creating an “announcement” list a complete no-brainer…

I allow my affiliates to “give away” complimentary memberships to the PLRSO club!

When someone they refer buys one of the offers, they earn a commission. And I get other people to promote and build my list for me. We all win.

So, you may be thinking…

————————————-
What Kind Of “Announcement” List can I Build?
————————————-

There are a wide variety of “announcement” lists that you can build. Let’s briefly look at ten of them…

* PLR List. You can swipe my idea and create a list of private label rights buyers.

* New Offers List. Build a list of people who love your work and want to be notified any time you have a new offer available.

* Pre-Launch List. Create buzz and anticipation for an upcoming new product release by building a pre-launch list several weeks (even months) in advance.

* Ezine Publishers List. Build a list of publishers who want to know any time you have a new ezine article that is available for reprint in their ezines.

* Bloggers List. Another idea is to allow bloggers who are looking for ready-made content to post to their blogs.

* Industry News List. How about becoming the “go to” guy or gal to share breaking news about your industry?

* Joint Venture List. Develop a list of partners and affiliates who are ready to promote anytime you have a new offer.

* Incentives List. Here’s a great idea: create a list of people who you offer “incentives” to when they purchase someone else’s new product through YOUR affiliate link.

* Freebie List. Regularly give away rebrandable content (reports, articles, videos, etc.) to these subscribers to earn commissions.

While all ten of these lists aren’t necessarily “buyers” up front, they each can certainly lead to buyers and revenue for you if you implement them.

Content is king. But let’s not forget that there are a lot of queens, princes, dukes and earls out there too.

Welly Mulia wants me to give you $488 worth of valuable Internet Marketing products for FREE!

Yep, all of them are complimentary to you.

With these gifts, you’ll discover and learn how to build a CONSISTENT 4-figure per month online business FAST.

I say ‘consistent’ because a lot of the times (almost every time actually) all the Internet Marketing “gurus” claim that you can earn a 4, 5-figure income with their methods.

But what they don’t tell you is that with their methods, your income will NOT be CONSISTENT.

Why?

Well, because these “guru” methods are usually short-lived and temporary, meaning you can’t earn consistent monthly income.

Sure you may be able to earn 10K in 1 day.

But how long does it last?

Can you still earn 10K in 1 day one month later?

UNLIKELY!

Take a look at the CRAZY product launch that’s happening every single day with the “how I went from zero to 100K per month in just 14 days just by working 2 hours per day” yadda yadda claim…

Every day you receive numerous sales pitch e-mails promising you the “next big thing” that if you don’t immediately buy, you’ll definitely fail in your online business venture bla bla bla…

Next day you receive another e-mail from the SAME marketer, this time offering a different “next big thing” that is supposed to be the best discovery since slice bread.

A few days later this SAME marketer pitches you again on a different product by another marketer and the cycle goes on and on…

Sounds familiar?

And when I say FAST, I don’t mean you can build a 4-figure per month business instantly.

Fast and instant is VERY different!

Instant is very deceiving.

When you say “instant” you almost think that the income you’re going to get is very easy to generate without any hard work at all…

This is definitely NOT the case here!

When I say “FAST”, I mean you learning from the mistakes that other honest Internet marketers have experienced before, and therefore cut short your learning curve so that you can achieve a four figure per month online income much FASTER than if you were to figure out everything for yourself.

Make sense?

Anyway, do you still remember the website I told you at the start of this email?

5 Tips For Shaking Off A Mistake

Posted August 11th, 2010. Filed under Self Development

Legendary basketball coach John Wooden once said, “Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.” The obvious point he was trying to convey is that everyone makes mistakes and fails. It is what you do after the mistake or failure that makes all the difference. Here are 5 ways to shake off your mistakes and move forward to success.

1) Brush it off: No one is perfect. Once in awhile everyone makes mistakes, it’s going to happen. Don’t spend time worrying about it, cooperate with the inevitable and focus on what you are doing.

2) Don’t fuss about trifles: Forget the small stuff. If you let go of the smaller mistakes, you’ll be more focused and catch the larger ones before they happen.

3) Don’t worry about the past: Shake off your mistakes and move on. Forget about what happened, no matter how silly or embarrassing. By letting go of the past it will help you focus on your current task.

4) Profit from your mistakes: So you’ve made a mistake, now figure out why you made the mistake, make a note and move on. Making even a mental note will help remind you to be more careful next time the situation comes up.

5) Rest before you get tired: Many times silly mistakes are made simply because you are tired. Make sure that you get enough sleep.
