  • Internet Marketing could potentially transform your business further
  • you need solid information to piece these intricate details
  • emphasize infrastructure set-up before you go live (so you don't implode later)

IM Checklist, Cont'd: Conversion & Monetization (Part 4)

Hello Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliate Marketers,

Offering the Internet Marketing Checklist (Part 4), if you want to track super affiliates who are "in the know". This information addresses what you must absolutely know BEFORE you put any hard-earned money, time and effort into any business venture.

It's about giving you careful details about what will work and won't work, IF AND BEFORE you go live online, EVEN WHEN you're operating in MLM territory. Don't try to figure this stuff out for yourself because it's intricate. Said with care and respect, the traditional MLM folks may disagree but it's because this is information they don't know about. There's no way they can know unless they've worked this blueprint firsthand.

You Don't Have To Know Everything About Internet Marketing

To work this blueprint, you first have to wrap your mind around a solid mind map.

Commercial Intention (Target The Buyers Directly)

Conversion means holding the attention of your prospects long enough to secure the sale. Argue about semantics along the lines of "We don't do sales" VS. "Yes..., Sales Get You Paid". Pick your battles carefully.


This is about SHOWING YOU what you must master by tapping into what's called commercial intention, right off the bat. Target people who are ready to buy what you have to offer. This is a clue but I'm not going to give you the entire piece of the pie just yet because I would ask you to find out why a lot of people don't make money online. There's a reason. You have to work up to this solution...again...target people who are ready to buy NOW. You can't move into advanced marketing (product creation) and pay-per-click until you've published yourself along some decent lines. People who will watch you will do just that. They want to make sure you won't be a flash in the pan.

Here's Good News --

And.., you don't have to be an expert writer but you should have some basic command of the English language. Study vocabulary. If you can cut and paste..., then add your 2 cents, you can write. Online, it's okay to publish in fragments because writing online emphasizes brevity.

It's not enough that I regurgitate answers for you. This is about you finding out that you don't have to pay a dime for a free 30-day trial period. Get the answers now, before you spend a lot of time, money and sweat. Find out how you can easily FIND PEOPLE WHO WILL PAY for what you have in 2 days or less.

I will give you the link at the end of this post. Without this information, you will most certainly pick the wrong niche, again..., said with care and you will more likely choose a niche that's so crowded -- no one gets paid.


Here's Why 1940 MLM 'On The Farm' Marketing Methods Work Far Less Effectively Than We'd All Hope

I'm not saying traditional MLM doesn't work. I never did. I'm saying these marketing methods could work much, much better IF you were presented with hard-core fact-finding information up front. That means market research targeting the right keyword prhases (stuff people enter when they're conducting a search online). Wrap your hands around that information and you can see which niches are crowded and which ones have room for you!


Read Closely --

More people are hopping online during these challenging financial times, looking for complete answers. Somehow they know it doesn't have to take you 10 years to earn something for yourself. That's because the power of the Internet allows you to reach more people in far less time.

I have people contacting me at 1 and 2 a.m. in the morning when they're most baffled. And..., because they're confused about what they've been told, they don't know who to believe. That's not going to stop me from telling you what you need to know.

People are More Commonly Looking To Those Who Are Working An Old Marketing Template

The Ones Hopping Online Are...For the First Time In A Long Time Are Finally Solving A Big Riddle

Why?

This is about you not having to work for someone else. But, with that freedom comes the responsibility you'll need to get the work done -- without anyone pushing you. I know this is scary. But, people are doing it as we speak. They don't want to give up their entire futures to faulty corporate promises where a few 'folks at the top' have no intentions of ever sharing their golden parachutes with front-liners.

What's Happening Online

We have some people online who claim to be experts long before they've seasoned themselves through proper marketing education and coaching. There's a vast difference between 'hype' and 'reality'..., especially when it comes to implementing Internet Marketing. But, I'm not entirely talking about MLM's..., or social networking entirely. There are other marketing avenues you can use to get your message out there. But, you have to aim your message at people in a very specific way.

Many Don't Succeed Because They Pick Markets That Are Too Competitive

1) Marketers will commonly target a very big crowd.

2) They target people who are in research phases of a buying cycle. We want people who are ready to buy, today! So, there's a big difference between these 2 categories of buyers.

3) You want step-by-step instructions and online help, answering your questions and more.

Many Struggle Online Because Their Messages Are Very Broad

In order to answer what people want, you must first understand what they're looking to solve. If you're developing a marketing message moving your MLM or affiliate product, you have to understand what motivates your target group. You must first understand the words they use, know what they think, then know how they buy...so you may also talk directly to these people.

Example: Brides and weight loss...before the wedding. You won't talk to this crowd about 'sky-diving' when a gal wants to look her best on the 'Big Day'.


MLM'ers: If you're talking to someone about a compensation plan while sharing your weight loss products..., it's going to be a challenging discussion. You have a mixed advertising message in place. People who want to lose weight and look good for whatever reason want to hear HOW the weight loss products you're offering will address their goals directly --more energy, add'l vitality, better looks, clearer skin, less water weight.

If we're talking about financial consolidation or debt reduction, you must be able to target the WHY'S/Benefits/& Values of your offering, as that information answers a prospect's pains.

Moving Forward...,

Those who get the proven "How To's" must look for universal marketing information.


Those Who Succeed Find A Targeted Sub-Niche That's "Just Right"

I will offer a solution but all solutions require some form of payment, in the form of your sweat equity, your time..., your resources and even your money. Business is never free. It's just a rule.

You're going to have to work to absorb what this content means. It's going to require a tenacious attitude. You must be willing to motivate for the right reasons -- not for 'get rich quick gains' immediately but for serving yourself and your family..., helping the common good. Do that much and you'll get everything you desire, in due time but you must be patient.

Here's The Beef

Internet Marketing Checklist: Conversion & Monetization (Part 4)

4.1 Sales Letters

Writing sales pages that turn visitors into buyers.

4.2 Squeeze Pages

Writing site content that gets visitors to sign-up to a database. This is important. We're talking about you owning your own database. You're not giving it away to any affiliate, if you can do anything about this challenge. And.., you can. It's about having your own autoresponder.

4.3 Up-Sell Pages

Increasing the value of each sale by immediately asking, "Would you like fries with your meal"?

4.4 Affiliate Marketing/Promoting Existing Products

Earning commissions for promoting what's called 'third-party' products/services.

4.5 Split Testing

Using split testing and multi-variate testing to increase the number of people who buy your products.

Miss these steps and you have an incomplete marketing plan. This information adheres to the ways people purchase online, in keeping with the natural flow.

Don't wait. Do something now..., today.

I will offer part 5 of the checklist in a few days. Please, don't just brush this information under the carpet. It could be potentially important to your success online.

Satire: Before November, Ask Who's Minding the Store?

Hi Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliates,

I promise to deliver the remains of the Internet Marketing checklist but I'm certain that it's not foremost in American minds lately.

I'm also not very big on tracking the political agendas of either American party and I'm not a 'political satirist'. The simplest reality is that if you've been tracking the news with even one eye open, have you ever asked yourself WHY AREN'T THE OBVIOUS QUESTIONS completely addressed during a presidential debate? Maybe I'm more concerned than the average bear, or maybe I'm not.


1) We're not told as the American public HOW the Presidential Candidates will solve the U.S. economic "stagflation".

2) I decided to look for some kind of US global ranking today, to numerically see where we stood relative to other nations. But then I rebuked my own questioning thinking, "A number isn't going to tell me how rough things might get". The family investment portfolio has dropped quite a bit these past few months and I'm not the only one who's watching their life savings blow down the drain.


MEANWHILE:

The media doesn't like to talk complete financial realities --


  • Corporate America is outsourcing 24,000 American jobs just from Hewlett Packard alone, after they completed a multi-hundred billion dollar merger. They told their employees they were struggling last year. And other companies aren't far behind.
  • Our Gross Domestic Output (productivity) is far less than foreign consumption (imports) -- true for sometime now
  • Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy and AIG was bailed out
  • The Feds offered their help (for as much as they could)
  • Most of my life-long friends were hit by the latest Texas hurricane
  • We have FEMA housing our hurricane refugees on the white sands of damaged shores, situated somewhere in-between cow pastures and jails, not including the 3 million who migrated across the U.S. in search of new life because of hurricane Katrina.

3) Sharing a link you may wish to check out for yourself, if this might help to ease some of the public malaise.

It takes a bit of business schooling to read this stuff. More obviously, many of us can surmize we're logically in some trouble nationwide. If you read a few pages and find you're yawning, then try reading Bill Cosby's advice offered below my signature.

Warning: there are tidbits in Cosby's message even I found offensive...and I'm fairly
forgiving regarding the worst of human habits.

Thanks and Take Good Care,

B. Brinkmeyer, MBA

____________________________________________________________________

Bill Cosby's (Write-Me-In-On Your Ballot) --

I HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE.

HERE IS MY PLATFORM:

(1) 'Press 1 for English' is immediately banned. English is the official language; speak it or wait at the border until you can.

(2) We will immediately go into a two year isolationist posture to straighten out the country's attitude. NO imports, no exports. We will use the 'Wal-Mart's policy, 'If we ain't got it, you don't need it.'

(3) When imports are allowed, there will be a 100% import tax on it.

(4) All retired military personnel will be required to man one of our many observation towers on the southern border. (six month tour) They will be under strict orders not to fire on SOUTHBOUND aliens.

(5) Social security will immediately return to its original state. If you didn't put nuttin' in, you ain't gettin' nuttin' out. The president nor any other politician will not be able to touch it.

(6) Welfare - Checks will be handed out on Fridays at the end of the 40 hour school week and the successful completion of urinalysis and a passing grade.

(7) Professional Athletes --Steroids - The FIRST time you check positive you're banned for life.

(8) Crime - We will adopt the Turkish method, the first time you steal, you lose your right hand. There is no more life sentences. If convicted, you will be put to death by the same method you chose for your victim; gun, knife, strangulation, etc.

(9) One export will be allowed; Wheat, The world needs to eat. A bushel of wheat will be the exact price of a barrel of oil.

(10) All foreign aid using American taxpayer money will immediately cease, and the saved money will pay off the national debt and ultimately lower taxes. When disasters occur around the world, we'll ask the American people if they want to donate to a disaster fund, and each citizen can make the decision whether it's a worthy cause.

(11) The Pledge of Allegiance will be said every day at school and every day in Congress.

(12) The National Anthem will be played at all appropriate ceremonies, sporting events, outings, etc.Sorry if I stepped on anyone's toes but a vote for me will get you better than what you have, and better than what you're gonna get.

Thanks for listening, and remember to write in my name on the ballot in November.

God Bless America !!!!!!!!!!!

Link Exchanges - Increases Indexing

Hi Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliate Marketers,

Today, someone very special sent me an e-mail. If you wish to know the identity of this individual, click below:

Business Opportunity


Goal of This Post -- Demonstrate the Power Behind Link Exchanges

Ever wonder how you virtually duplicate yourself effectively ? Here's a technique that multiples the power of YOURSELF in ways you can't imagine by increasing the level of indexing you acquire online. You could say this is one way to get into 'VIRAL MARKETING'. Where one contact begets another... as site traffic may be shared. Don't be afraid to do something like this, if you're a social person.

Quality links help you develop natural or organic traffic (the traffic you want as a result of your published work and your targeted messages, not the kind most pay for delivering few results).


Basic Guidelines --

Whenever you exchange links, always be certain to check out the sites of those who would like to represent you. There should be a similiar match in content so you won't publish a link talking to an opposite niche group. You won't publish a link driving people to "Alaskian Eskimos" when your content targets "People Who Adore Tropic Regions".


Look for a Match in Business Mindset --

1) Does the link leading to the other business (or individual) basically share similiar values?

2) Is there reciprocation?

If you meet the first 2 criteria, then you most likely have a match.

3) Look for people in your link exchange who will offer grounded,

information, as they know their information best.

4) Does this business (or individual) represent the public good?

5) Does this source 'basically do the right thing' in balanced keeping with self and others?

We have a 'yes' to these basic questions.

Click below:

Business Opportunity

This gentleman talks in universal terms what's good for many people is generally good for business. Feel free to see what's he's talking about and take notice about looking for the positives in life, even when we've 'hit bumps in the road'.

I will continue to bring additional human resources your way.
