To Bail Or Not To Bail -- What's the Real Question?

Hello Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliates,

Well, the House of Representatives rejected the $700 Billion bank bailout Monday. The Senate did not concur on Wednesday. Now there's ongoing deliberation later this week to prevent what some claim will be the worst financial meltdown ever. Personally speaking, lets outlaw high CEO (Chief Executive Officer) payouts. This challenge can't be a clear-cut issue.

Implication For Consumers --

• goods are carrying a more reasonable price tag...and some items are still 'sky-high'
• what are retailers thinking ? -- forget the designers --
• cost-of-living increases are almost nill
• lenders will tighten credit
• any credit secured will come at a higher price
• 401K's are worth less
• some spend no matter what

Implications For Businesses --

You'll be pressured more than ever to find just the right niche (sub-niche).

This brings us to the real question called true profitability --

1) How do you find people who want what you have to offer?

2) Will they buy? (Yes -- you can answer this question without hassle!)

3) Are they ready to buy 'sooner-than-later', even when they're carrying less cash?

In short, you need to know what people will buy and what they'll spend -- at precise levels.

Let's get started!

8.1 Analyzing Web Stats

Using information from web stats and analytics to make key business decisions. Make

Adopting Conservative Measures When Times Are Lean

Greetings Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliate Marketers,

1) Today the House of Representatives rejected the $700 Billion bank bailout. This sets an interesting precedence for us as consumers and business owners. Read on to find out more about what will be involved for Americans.


See how this decision impacts your business, click below:

http://uk.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20080929/tbs-uk-financial-bailout-vote-4210405.html


As a business owner, you have the right to be conservative with your spending. Please allow me to say that much with care. It's okay to use free to lower-cost methods of advertising. I will continue to bring you relatively inexpensive marketing means and regular updates.


One of the best ways to put yourself out there as an expert is to set up your own blog. Check out http://www.blogger.com/ and free teleconferencing in the MLM resource section of this blog.
You can expand your blogging abilities over time. I will address this need in the posts ahead.


2) People are talking about emotionally-charged topics prior to these November elections but it seems to me that as America falls in status similar to that of 3rd-world financial power, it's natural investors will dump stocks in favor of government bonds. I'm not saying this is a best course of action because it's a short-term approach based on "I have mine Jack...but do you have yours" mindset.


3) We'll have more pressure on ourselves to rebuild our financial strength at individual levels.

4) This means Americans must pay down their debt, borrow far less then focus on saving.


5) For businesses, publishing solid content for a consuming public online will be key, offering quality products and services (offsetting harsh economic realities), diversifying business offerings..., then continuing to develop multiple income streams. I will talk more about addressing these challenge in future posts.


6) The good news is --the economy has its own natural equilibrium and America will recover.

IM Checklist, Cont'd: Systemization (Part 7)

Greetings Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliates,

Posting content on a Saturday. Wishing you a happy weekend and a prosperous new week ahead, delivering part 7 of the Internet Marketing checklist. Please allow me to emphasize a few things before you see 4 major points on the list.

1) You are the CEO of your business --

Not your upline. Not your crossline.

If you are looking for help online, be certain to use careful discernment. The Internet is evolving, the economy is unstable, plenty of people are looking for work elsewhere and we are moving into an empowering time.

2) That much said --

... it's a great opportunity for you to finally create your dream job. With sweat equity and a little bit of cash upfront (not tens of thousands of dollars), you can publish yourself into your area of expertise. I will begin to fill in specifics along these lines in future posts. You can move yourself into profit. But, it's going to mean work. It won't happen instantly and it won't happen overnight.

3) The Internet is also a place where unscrupulous people will take advantage.


Please Let This Reasoning Be Your Guide --

In all matters -- whenever you're the consumer, time is always on your side.

Never let anyone tell you "that you have to make an important business decision..., right now..., today...or it's gone". If that happens, in truth -- then that biz opp is GONE. You don't need it. What you want is time-tested information and cutting edge material, and people who will be around for the long haul. These people will answer your questions with respect. As they show you what's out there (without having to reinvent the wheel), they will tell you "this is a standard offer". They won't berate you. Had to get that off my chest because nothing steams me more than human dishonesty.

IM Checklist, Part 7 -- Systemization

7.1 Outsourcing

This is NOT about getting people to do your dirty work. Truth be known --- the best entrepreneurs handle their own dirty work. They don't expect others to slave over what they know they must handle themselves.

This is about hiring people to help you with things you don't have time to master or things you've already mastered so that so you can tackle the bigger stuff, thereby moving your business forward. You pay a fair price. If that work means someone delivers you proper keyword research or a website or solid copywriting (ad copy you see online), they should deliver what you expect.

This is about putting your business on automated processes so you can expand your market reach. If that means managing multiple campaigns, let's include outsourcing as important help. Please don't expect to get it for free.

7.2 Automation

Getting computers to automatically complete key tasks in your online business.

7.3 Building Business Systems

Systemizing business tasks so that all management happens on auto-pilot.

7.4 Customer Service Systemization

Putting systems in place to manage customer support tasks. That doesn't mean you, the CEO, will ignore customer complaints.

IM Checklist, Cont'd: Content Creation, (Part 6)

Hi Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliate Marketers,

Today's post touches on a few advanced marketing concepts. Until you've had a campaign online working seamlessly for a minimum of 3 years (time enough to build a responsive list), chances are you're better off marketing along activity levels mentioned in prior posts. See earlier checklists for a complete overview.

If you're curious to find out more now,

Take the 30-day challenge, where "no stones are left unturned".


There are various superaffiliates online who specialize in areas mentioned along this marketing continuum. Some marketers are more complete than others so I offer reviews of many, picking only the best (and most proven) ones out there.

As the CEO of your business, you have full choice to incorporate anything you wish into your business, as long as you're not violating corporate trademarks, using specific company materials or publishing corporate content.

Solution: offer neutral information, put your name on everything you do, become a 'go to' person and in time, you'll attract people to you on the basis of your expertise.

Then, offer the values and benefits of your products or services. If you publish even a snippet of corporate information, then include the proper credit, (name and date). That's the best way to keep yourself out of any hot water!

In all posts, I offer recommendations giving you ample means for much less than you'd traditionally think. The goal is to support your marketing, positioning only you as the expert! I will expand these posts in the coming weeks ahead, to offer examples, how to's and more. Keep referring back to this blog to look for information you demand. It's about finding out what's going to work best for you.
