If you watch this video, which explains many of the benefits of the Automated Sales Formula, you will be shocked and impressed with the information and the opportunity it can afford you if you purchase the product.  I do have to tell you that this link http://bit.ly/7wQP8j is an affiliate link; and, if you are wise enough to see the possibilities of using this formula and purchase it from that link…I may be compensated financially.  

         So with that said and done…give it a listen and take some notes…Keith Wellman and his team at Every Day Wealth have worked hard to come up with an ingenious program that benefits affiliate marketers and product owners alike.   Making money online with affiliate products has never been easier or potentially, more profitable.  Remember, this is for a limited time and can be taken offline at any time.  http://bit.ly/7wQP8j

       Successful internet marketers, Jeff Wellman and Paul Counts, are on the cutting edge with the technique of teaching individuals live and in great detail internet marketing techniques on their live webinars.   Their webinars are not canned, nor are they presented without interaction with their students.   This free webinar, $100 a day affiliate marketing system, is full of  content.  It is a webinar that really, and truly, gets down to the nuts and bolts of how to take a PLR product, and add value by re-working it.   Then, taking that new product and rebranding it into a product that you can be proud of.   With this process that Jeff and Paul teach, you simply sell it as your very own polished product that your customers find to be worth spending their hard earned cash on.

        Many people just don’t believe how much they learn from these two personalable  marketers until they hear it for the first time.  In fact, over and over again they receive notes in their support telling them that what they are doing is changing lives because of the kind of teaching that they put out their for their online students.  You probably won’t believe it either until you listen in.  If you have tried and failed to sell PLR products online before, then you need to hear this for yourself.  http://bit.ly/cbXxdO 

         The webinar is on March 10, 2010 at 9:30 pm ET.  You won’t believe how far, or in-depth Jeff Wellman and Paul Counts go in teaching important techniques regarding their $100 dollars a day Affiliate Marketing System.  This webinar is all about PLR.  Remember, this webinar is FREE. http://bit.ly/cbXxdO

*For those of you who care to know…that link is an affiliate link and even though the webinar is free…should a reader of this blog click on it and purchase a program through the $100 dollars a day affiliate marketing system in the future…I would be financially compensated for it later.  Thanks for reading!

      If you are in business to make money by selling products or services online…then this is a tool that may be just what you need to add to your income in 2010.  Expensive written sales copy stopped many a beginner entrenpeneur from getting their products or services out there to the masses as they could ill afford to spend thousands of dollars to pay a copywriter.  Sales videos have quickly replaced the need for pricey sales copy; the impact on internet marketing is amazing. 

         Sales videos let the customers “get to know the salesperson” and make their decision about purchasing the products or services without feeling manipulated by all of the hyped up, over-the-top written sales copy that was the mainstay of marketers in the past.  Customers feel more respected by being spoken to in a real way without all of that manipulation and the sales video results appear to prove that theory of mine.  Since the beginning of time things have been sold and purchased, that is not going to change.  How that process takes place has changed.  I think that the video sales letter improves the relationship between buyers and sellers.

         Keith has been, quietly been behind the scenes, perfecting his techniques and the results are proving that his video skinning formula has really been ramping up the conversion rates.  If you want to know more information so that you too can make more money and get a leg up on your competitors in the affiliate marketing field check out this video: http://bit.ly/7wQP8j Yes, for full disclosure that is an affiliate link!

      Many people don’t realize the extent of the problem of homeless youth.  They are at risk for drugs & alcohol addictions, prostitution, violence, human trafficking, HIV, suicide, teen pregnancy, abuse, abortion, early death, mental & physical health problems, and crime & imprisionment.  It doesn’t have to be this way.

       Tellman started out with this challenge in Battery Park in New York in September of 2009; he plans to end the journey within 99 days in California at the Santa Monica Pier.   He has been documenting his journey as he goes.  He started in September as I said, and the route has changed some; which is good considering that winter has fallen in many parts of the northern & eastern states.  He is meeting great people along the way.

         Tellman Knudson believes that the homeless youth are great problem solvers and are good at surviving.  He wants to harness those skills and teach them to reduce their risk- related behaviors; and, to get themselves out of whatever kind of dangerous situations that they are living in.  After he has accomplished that, he hopes to be able to teach them business and life skills using their unique problem solving abilities.  That $100 million dollars will be put to good use.  Tellman knows that this is a group of individuals worth saving…he was once a troubled youth himself who faced many challenges including a debilitating leg condition which hindered his ability to even walk well.   http://runtellmanrun.com/press-and-sponsors/who-is-tellman/

        He has suffered a severely brused, painful heel condition which required him to recently reduce his running schedule.  He has been advised by a doctor to only run 3 miles a day and to only run 5 days a week instead of the 7 that he was running.  This will of course add time to his original plan of running this journey in 99 days time.  No matter, he is following doctors orders and doing as he is told so that he can still achieve his goal.  In the meantime….

       Tellman Knudson is in Atlanta, today, trying to raise funds in the internet community at the Sheraton Hotel where a seminar is being held with many of his friends and supporters.  He asks that we wish him luck; but, I say…even more than that…send him money!  If you go to his page you can donate online, what do you say…are the youth of today worth investing in?  http://runtellmanrun.com/   This isn’t just a holiday charity drive…this is Tellman’s purpose and passion…won’t you help?

       So, how do people, who are not well versed in all of the aspects of creating an online business, go about getting themselves and their products out there for the customers to find them?  Do they spend 3 or 4 years learning how to market online from a series of gurus or internet marketing coaches?  They could do that, many people do; however, here is another suggestion that might just help you out in record time.

       Last week, Jeff Mills and Jeff Wellman did a free webinar on outsourcing.  Jeff Mills shares his experience with outsourcing many of the tasks that he either just doesn’t have time for, or just does not enjoy.  This webinar was extremely well received.  There is still time to have access to it; if you want to know how to make more money with your online business with less time and stress, on your part. 

        This is an affiliate link, just so you know…however, once you hear this…I don’t think that you will care that it is an affiliate link. http://freeoutsourcingcd.com/jw.html   Outsourcing might just be the answer you are looking for in the midst of feeling overwhelmed and discouraged with the process of becoming a successful online entrepeneur.  Some entrenpeneurs say, do what you do well…and hire or outsource the rest and you will become much more productive and successful. 

          Here is the link again, if you are interested in information that will free up some of your time while allowing you to make more money than ever before.  http://freeoutsourcingcd.com/jw.html  Check it out!

       Getting a mentor or an instructor who’s teaching style matches up with your learning style is important to maximizing the instruction.  I love learning in a relaxed setting. 

         It is hard not to feel intimidated when you are trying to absorb information all at once from someone who is treating you with a superior attitude or in a demeaning way.  My mentor doesn’t do that.   As an adult, I realize that not everyone has access to a coach, mentor, or instructor who is as great as mine is…however, if what you are wanting to learn is important enough to you…you will make an effort to find someone who makes you feel safe enough to make mistakes while you learn; knowing that you will not be made to feel stupid while you learn it.

       That is important.  Life is interesting and there are so many things to do and learn.  Be adverturous and explore…find someone who loves teaching, to learn from.  You will not be disappointed.  Remember, if you are ever in the position of doing the teaching…take the time to make sure that those who are in the position of learning…actually do so, while feeling good about the process!

        Kudos to my coach and mentor Dixie Brown of Lay Off Your Boss Marketing.    I am an affiliate for them because I believe in what they teach and how they teach it.  If you are interested in learning how to market online or to becoming an affiliate marketer in any niche online…then Jeff Wellman, Dixie Brown, Paul Counts are the people you need to learn from.   Right at the moment, Dixie has a great video training for *Free* on turning your PLR products into CASH -  http://bit.ly/315R1m  Take advantage of her great teaching abilities and you too will know what value she adds to the Lay Off Your Boss Marketing Team and to those who wish to learn to making money online!

            However, for those that do spend….they are quickly overwhelmed when they discover the amount of new skills and knowledge that they must acquire before they can even begin to make lots money…not to mention the discouragement that sets in when they realize how long it will be before they learn enough to make that huge investment of money back.  It just isn’t practical to spend thousands and wait 12 months to 2 years to learn enough knowledge and skills to make your money back.  Marketing is a system for selling products or services; and, because it is a system…that means there are many components. 

          What if you could learn some of the techniques that would bring in enough money to pay an extra bill or two a month?  Would that be a benefit to you?  I am sure that it would.  Rapid Cash doesn’t promise to make you millions or guarantee that you will be driving a new car in a week…that is foolishness.  On the other hand, Rapid Cash can add enough cash to your pocket to help take some of the pressure off the average person’s monthly struggles http://tinyurl.com/djr2a7 . 

       You see, what alot of those big named gurus and their programs promise you is unrealistic when you think about it.  In their sales pages and videos…they are flaunting their cars, their mansions and piles of money.  Yes it is possible to acquire those things; however, what they often don’t tell you is that it has taken them years and tons of money to learn how to earn the kind of skills and knowledge needed to make that happen.  It does not happen overnight like that for the average person.  It takes alot of work…and a whole lot of expert help to get to that level. 

          People are often manipulated by those ads to believe that they can achieve that level of success quickly.  Realistically, learning is a process and everyone has to start somewhere.  I am an affiliate for Rapid Cash Marketing.  http://tinyurl.com/djr2a7   They teach you how to use skills and knowledge to earn extra money while you learn those other things about making money online, learning a proven, in- depth internet marketing system that can lead to a higher level of internet marketing success. 

       There is a team of coaches who are there to teach you how to pick up extra cash to supplement your income with skills that you may already have or can quickly develop.   They are knowledgable in many areas and use these skills themselves to earn money online.    Do you have digital photo experience, interviewing skills, graphic arts skills, writing skills, direct marketing skills, writing sales letters, video skills,  voice over abilities, editing skills, etc?  The list goes on…but, if you could learn how to use those skills in an effective way to earn enough money to take the edge off of your present financial situation it would be a blessing right?  

          If you are willing to learn and willing to take action towards achieving some financial success online then check out this link:  http://tinyurl.com/djr2a7   Yes, I will get a financial reward if you were to purchase…but, if their program improved your finances; then, I think you would thank me anyway!   I think you will see the wisdom in investing a small amount of money that will quickly repay your investment if you put in the effort to do what the successful internet marketers Jeff Wellman, Dixie Brown, and Paul Counts instruct you to do. 

           There are even people who want or need to sell products or services online…but, they cringe at the very thought of being called a salesperson.  They want to make money…but, they don’t want to sell.   Why is that; it is because over the years, sales people have gotten a reputation as being pushy, dishonest, or smarmy!    The reality is, to make money online-you DO need to be a sales person.  Can you successfully sell and still be perceived as  a “good person”?  

          Sure, I think you can sell products or service and still hang on to who you are, with your ethics in place.   I believe that the way you sell is a reflection of who you are as a person…or at least, it should be.  Don’t be persuaded to take one tack or another in how you market if it goes against who you are as a person; just because it worked for someone else and they made lots of money.  For those people LEARNING internet marketing, online sales techniques, or affiliate marketing….I want you to think carefully about what kind of salesperson you are!  How you conduct your business definately matters.

          In case some of you don’t know it…customers are a pretty savy bunch of people.  Oh there are coaches/marketers out there who tell you that your customer doesn’t even really know what it is they want or need; and, while there may be a handful of those kind of customers…for the most part-they Do know what they want.  Respect them and act accordingly.  

         If the customer thinks that they want something that isn’t going to benefit them; you could choose to  not correct them and just sell them what they want anyway; but is that right?  If you want to keep them happy and see them successful; you will point out the difference between wanting/needing.  Show them how they could benefit from other products, if that is the right thing for them, if  that will increase their success.    You will have gained a customer for life .  But what if your product isnt right for them; but, they want it anyway?  Truth…give them truth about what they really need…even if it is your competitor’s product or service.    Say what?

            Isn’t your goal to have a happy customer in the end?  Then you must represent yourself and your business in a way that reflects that you respect your customer by not manipulating them into purchases that they either dont want or dont need.   But you say, I am in business to make money!  True enough…but, repeat business is better than a dishonest sale that will leave a bad taste in your customer’s mouth when they think of you or your business.  They will remember how you conducted yourself as a business person; whether you handled the situation in a good way, or in a  bad/indifferent way.

          In my mind, if you have to “shock” your potential customer by how you “sell” them…then you are merely playing mind games and manipulating the customer with ”black hat” tactics.  Instead, try operating in a genuine way which connects what you provide them, along with exactly what they need.  Now that may take some honest, straightforward speaking because some of your customers may believe they need something else.  You have to convince them with facts, figures, and testimonies that don’t promise them the moon…when you know that you can’t deliver them any such thing.  Be realistic with your promises…make sure you can deliver what you say you can; and then, go one step further and give them a bit more.  They will recognize your commitment to them, as your customer, and it will begin to build a loyalty between you, as the salesperson; and them, as the buyer.

          Ok, some more honesty here; your honesty as a marketer or salesperson… can cost you some customers.  What?  Why would being honest cost you customers?   It is because your customers have been being taught by others to expect to be manipulated.  They may think that you are not for real…they may believe that there is a “catch” to what you are promising them.  It is possible that your potential customer may buy into another marketer’s big promises or overly hyped product-if it doesn’t deliver them what they expected…that will come back to bite both the customer and the marketer who did not represent themselves or their product/services honestly.    It is up to you to present yourself in a way that delivers exactly what you say you will, in the way you promise, in a timely manner; and, back up your promises by following through.  Eventually, word gets around about how solid you are as a marketer and you will get respect, as well as trust, from those who do business with you.   And what’s more, they WILL come back and DO business with you because they will realize that it is better to deal with business people that are honest in how they conduct their business.

         In the old days when people conducted business in small towns…they quickly made a name for themselves as honest or dishonest.  Word got around.  The internet may be a bigger business field…but, if you create an image online with your customers one way or the other…be prepared for that to impact your business!

       So, what kind of salesperson are you; or what kind of salesperson do you want to become?

        To me, labeling has always had a negative connotation.  Labeling is the action by which someone or something is described…it is limiting.  Putting something in a box is not helpful for picking up fringe business in areas that COULD be related to the services that you provide.  Labeling does not provide opportunities for expanding what you do…it simply describes itemized ideas or services.

         Branding on the other hand is defining…or designating something as a go to source.  It is creating a process of authority in a certain area of expertise.  Yes, to a potential customer it also describes who you are or what you are about…but, by branding yourself/your business a certain way…you can create your own description (labeling of your brand) by choosing how you want to be known.  It is a very carefully constructed advertising association in the minds of your potential customers or targeted audience.  If done skillfully, when your customer or targeted audience is in need of services which you can supply…they do not think of others with the same skills or services…they think only of what you as a business or business owner can provide them…that is branding…and that is why it is so very valuable in today’s business world. 

         If you can brand your business as a go to source…when your customer is in need or want of something RELATED to your brand…it opens the possibilities of, what ifs.  Even if you can’t provide the what if…a good go to source will have in place a referral plan to other directions that their customers may need.  This only builds your credibility as the go to source…it builds your trustibility factor and your customer’s appreciation and loyalty; when they again need what you/your business can provide them.  That is how a brand is grown and strengthened.

         Here’s wishing you a BRAND YOU day!
