The formula to success – making money online continued.

This is a continuation of the formula of success – making money online part 1. Just to re-cap, here is the formula:

Creativity + Understanding + Direction + Determination + Communication + Integrity = Success online.

DETERMINATION

If you are a naturally determined person you’ll just immediately get this. That’s because you have used your natural talent to achieve results in the past. There’s no doubt that good old fashioned will power, and stubbornness (or as some people like to say – tenacity) absolutely have their place in building your business.

Now most people know that – but the trick is to get into this state, and to keep maintaining this state in the first place. So ask yourself – just what is determination or will power? Will power or determination is unification of desire. What you’ve got to do is decide with your entire mind to do something.

Let me qualify that a little. Ever heard of subconscious sabotage? What’s happening here is that there is a part of someone that desires to fail – for one reason or another. Something happened in their childhood that made them feel unworthy for example. That little voice is holding them back.

Or let’s say that you don’t really want to do a task, but you know you should. Part of you has the desire not to do it.

So what you can do is listen to those dissenting little voices. Write down what’s holding you back and problem solve. The task you didn’t want to do – let’s say it’s writing yet another article. Come up with affirmation of why you like writing articles. Learn to like it. Compromise – if I do this article I get a bar of chocolate. The point is to listen and identify the problem – this way you are less likely to subconsciously sabotage. Also you can pick up on recurring habits this way.

COMMUNICATION:

Some people can talk and write all day long. Others are good at building connections and making bridges. All this is part of the essential skill of communicating. Viagra professional TV presenters are often very good communicators. They make people feel at home, can communicate and explain situations and events clearly, and are funny enough but not too funny to be a comedian.

Being able to communicate effectively is something that can be improved upon all your life. It covers a very broad skill set – sales, negotiation, empathy, humour, putting complex concepts into simple language etc. A good grasp of language comes in very handy here, but its not just about words and grammar.

What mood where you in when you bought that item. What made you buy it? How did you get into that buying state of mind? Chances are that it wasn’t just te words that made you buy – it was the effect the words had on you and how they made you feel. Different words have different connotations to different niches. Communication is about evoking the right state of mind in others.

An example of how this varies from niche to niche is the first time I came across one of those “wait wait wait” pop up ads. Often the vendor will give you a discount. Rather then let you navigate away from the page, a sexy operator will pop up and offer you a further bonus. As an internet marketer, I thought this was quite cheeky and a good negotiating ploy. I got the product because of their cheek. And it has to be said, because the pop up operator was sexy. Www.viagra.de

When I starting promoting other niches, I came across a product with several different sales pages. One of these had a pop up as described previously. I thought this would be the best page – but when I tested my market, customers got quite irritated by the pop up. For that niche it wasn’t a good idea! They felt they were being pushed into buying something.

INTEGRITY

Have you ever looked at a sales page on the internet and thought – lies, lies lies! Often sales pages are totally hyped up. I made the mistake of buying a product once – the hype looked so good. When it didn’t live up to the hype, do you think that vendor saw any repeat business? Nope. Not a sausage. Levitra efectos secundarios He was lucky he didn’t get asked for a refund!

What’s that much repeated business axiom? Under promise and over deliver. Too much hype and you’re doing the opposite! I’ve nothing against hype – but only if the product lives up to it.

Integrity is about being reliable, living up to your promises and providing true value. If you are an affiliate marketer, this means trying out your products and making sure they work before you recommend them to other people, even if they are from a super guru!

If you recommend something and it turns out to be crap, then you will carry the can! It sounds obvious, but people will think that you recommended the product just to make a fast buck. This does nothing for your reputation and they will be very unlikely to buy from you again! Also doing this sets you up for subconscious sabotage. A small part of you will disagree with what you are doing, and won’t think you are worthy of success.

Ever heard the phrase the money’s in the list? This is effectively saying that you are going to make repeat sales off the people on your list – so its absolutely paramount that you give them quality info, and build the relationship and trust!

How many of us out there have been disappointed when they have got one of those hyped up reports from the web?  Or disappointed with parts of the report?

I mean I know we need to be positive, and use the reports for their movement value and for generating ideas, but sometimes don’t you get the feeling of being a little let down Www.viagra.de ?

I recently got a report from the net. I won’t tell you what the subject was about, but here was one of the bullet points from the report:

Find the ultimate blueprint for cranking out cash generating content-laden articles faster than the roadrunner!! (page XX)

And do you know what the answer was?

Write your introduction

Write your body

Write your conclusion

Well Duh!! Honestly now – who wouldn’t be slightly disappointed by this? So th is blog post Viagra professional is all about separating the hype from the truth. I’m also going to ask for comments, because I have a hunch. You know what that hunch is?

Young men are far more likely to hype up their sales page, give you volumes of information that you’re unlikely to use and generally mislead you then older guys and women. Do you think this is true, or has elements of truth in it?

Now don’t get me wrong here – I have been very satisfied with other reports from other young guys. Levitra efectos secundarios And of course it’s possible that women and older guys will also mislead. But generally, speaking honestly, are you more on your guard if you know the report is from a young man?

But I have now made an addition to the criteria on my checklist. Now before I get anything from the internet, especially in internet marketing I follow the following steps:

1)      Look for a review on the internet

2)      Look for any customer testimonials

3)      Look at the credibility of the person

4)      Look at their background (including sex and age!)

So my question to you dear readers is, what criteria do you follow before buying a report on the internet?

I could also have titled this post offline events, elevator Pitch and business cards. But when I wrote it I realized that going to offline events, getting an elevator pitch and getting business cards often give you purpose and direction!

Have you ever been to any offline events? Forex, property, marketing, starting your own business, there are many. Have you found that often they will recommend that you:

a)      Get some business cards printed, and have something useful like a calendar in the back

b)      Get an elevator pitch

Sure enough, after any of these events you will no doubt come away with a few people’s business cards.

But “wait a second”  I hear you say, what’s the point of business cards? I’m starting an online business, I wasn’t going to actually meet anyone!  I was going to sneakily start my business without anyone noticing! 

Well you’d be surprised at how much business word of mouth can generate. Also it’s no use just “quietly” doing your business. You’re not ashamed of your business are you? Speaking to people about your business, especially friends, and the people in your immediate environment can really help keep your finger on the pulse. You can get insight into how the public will view your business – which will help with your promotions and sales pages. Viagra professional People will often be more direct, and different information will come up in a face to face situation then in a purely online environment.

If you’re an internet marketer, and you don’t have business cards, if you’re not careful people can immediately discredit you. Internet MARKETING  is the business you’re in, so it is often expected that you have some kind of business card! Especially if you attend an offline event.

Why bother with offline events Levitra efectos secundarios ? Networking! Is networking important in this game? You bet cha!! Peer networking is great for traffic to your site. Www.viagra.de If your have an article or product that is good for someone else’s customer’s, then you get super concentrated targeted traffic coming to your site! The conversion rates will be much higher then normal traffic. Also attending offline events shows other people, and your subconscious that you are serious about your business / products.

Anyway, the alternative title of this post is “offline events, elevator pitch and business cards”. In case you don’t know, an elevator pitch is a quick overview of your business, which could be delivered in the time it takes to get to your destination floor in an elevator. In other words if you bumped in to Richard Branson, or someone who could  enormously help your business in an elevator, what would you tell them? A short, sharp piece about your business when the opportunity arises.

Why write an elevator pitch? You can put it in your email signature on forums and emails. You can use it or part of it in your websites sub title. When you’re talking to the press it can help get attention.  If you come across as someone who has crystal clear ideas about your business you make a much better impression. Developing your elevator pitch makes you think about the problem your business is solving, who your audience is, how your going to stand out, what you unique selling points are.

Here is my elevator pitch:

Internet marketing superheroes – your destined for more…more customers, more business, more freedom. It’s a site to help people make money online using internet marketing.

5. Top 10 Blog Traffic Tips

Take a look at the who’s who section of this website (coming soon!). Just look up a few names on the search engines and take a look at their blogs. Take this link for example:

http://www.lee-mcintyre.com/blog/

You’ll find some really interesting articles, and before you know it you’ll have got a free eBook / course. Then you’ll get another offer, quite often with a business partner of the original information. This offer will be good. Just the bonuses look good. Get this offer and be prepared to spend the next 2 hours at least just downloading all the information you’re getting!

As you look through this info, you’ll come across other products. If for example you got a guide on starting an internet marketing business, you may find information on affiliate marketing, article marketing, blogging, building your mailing list, CPA, PPC. You may look these up on a search engine, and after clicking on a few websites and blogs you come across some more free stuff, with bonuses. Then another amazing offer, with more bonuses. Loads of video and audio files that you can listen to at your convenience in the car! And these offers will be really brilliant, tremendous value. If you spend any more money, you get even more value. Www.viagra.de

This is the wonderful nature of the internet, everything is connected, and one thing leads to another. But how do you cope with it all Viagra professional ? How do you read / absorb all this information, and stop it gathering digital dust on your drive? Here are some tips I have found useful:

1) Keep a separate excel spreadsheet with all your downloads on and everything you have bought. Every now and then review the list

Doing this has a number of benefits. For example, this will stop you downloading great offers more then once. Believe me this is easy to do, firstly because people often don’t read the info they download, and a few months later, in the rush of life you can forget you downloaded it, start browsing the internet and come across the same offer again.

Secondly, you can see how much you have spent on researching your business, and balance that up with how much your business has moved forward. Is the information you’ve downloaded getting true business results? Do you need to be more disciplined and concentrate on other areas of your business? This really can jolt you into action (if that’s what you needed)…when you look on your spreadsheet and realize you’ve bought $2000 worth of information, and yet you haven’t made much headway into your business, it can be quite a wake up call!

2) Ask yourself “what 1 task do I need to do to bring in the most business”? What is the most important part of your business? Concentrate on that and set yourself some goals within this area. You can then make best use of the information you’ve got. Get yourself plan. Make a proper business plan. This helps you to stay on one track, learn and absorb the information for a purpose before moving on.

3) Once you’ve absorbed a few good eBooks / articles / video’s / audio’s, ask yourself “was that good information”? “Did I like the style of the author”? If you enjoyed and made use of the information, then chances are you’ll get a lot out of the other products the author produces.

One good way of making sure you get honest life changing great information is to go to the source. Levitra efectos secundarios Who has been around in your niche the
longest? Who’s got the best record?
