A Day In My Life

Posted on May 31st, 2009 by admin

Regardless of all I’ve experienced I still find it incredible the number of things you must juggle just to exist with any degree of serenity.

My dear wife recently had our 2nd child and we moved into our new house. Indeed, those are both momentous times in one’s life, hence things are destined to be frenzied, yet it still looks overwhelming when you itemize every last small matter you’re considering and processing.

Just yesterday I had to remember to locate and buy my dear wife cream for stretch marks to help her recover following the birth of our child. And during that same run of errands I had to obtain a new watch for my older child.

My little child’s been preoccupied with clocks lately and I considered it time she received her first authentic watch. But evaluating children’s watches isn’t elementary. What will be entertaining yet not fall out of favour in mere weeks? And I had to deliberate safety as well.

I do know I want an authentic timepiece and not only a cell phone or other digital device to satisfy the function. I want her to concentrate on time and not become oblivious by some other digital pleasures a device might provide.

Following that playful stop, I had to turn to my own concerns as well.

I’m at long last sliding into that mature period when my head’s hair is receding like the tide following a full moon. Friends inform me that alopecia prevention has improved greatly in recent years, but I only have not made time to investigate the best methods to handle my trivial aging problem.

I didn’t actually create much progress. But I hope following a bit of internet research I will be better organized next time.

Online revenue Simple Not Easy

Posted on May 31st, 2009 by admin

One of the simplest and most overlooked aspects of online marketing is that it’s not complicated. Or more to the point,, there are many “gurus” who try to make it complicated. Aside from whatever motivation they might have to do that online profits happen as the result of one simple equation –

Traffic + Conversion = Sales

– performed over & over again

There are MANY ways to get traffic (visitors) to your site and cause them to take some action or “convert,” which will either result in more leads or (less frequently) result directly in more sales to your business.

So here’s the other simple rule — you only need to master 1 or 2 traffic methods and 1 or 2 conversion methods, and you will make money. You don’t need to master the entire kitchen to make a grilled cheese sandwich, and you don’t need to know EVERYTHING about internet marketing in order to add revenue to your business.

With that in mind, there are a few basic traffic techniques I’ve implemented in some of my sites and client sites that have universally and consistently WORKED. Here are a few of those methods — but remember, you only need to pick one or two:

Increasing Visitor Count

1) Twitter is a highly effective means of targeting your niche and developing the conversation with your customers and prospects. In fact, it is second to none. However, most businesses don’t know how to use Twitter effectively. They spam with “sales tweets” — “Look at the cool new thing I’m selling.” The 80/20 rule is highly effective — 80% of your tweets should be about something interesting, funny or otherwise engaging… a question of the day like “What’s for lunch?”… anything to get people talking, laughing, thinking… Also, keep it consistent and be generous with re-tweets. A few tweets a day go a long way toward establishing a rabid list of followers. The wrong thing to do is to Tweet like a madman for a day or two and then disappear for a month. Or worse, don’t reply when someone direct messages you or @messages you. That’s like ignoring someone at a dinner party when they ask you to pass the gravy. You WON’T get any dessert.

2) Video marketing — one of the fastest ways to rank your site and get lots of inbound traffic. Keep your videos consistent — don’t show up one day in a baseball cap and dark lighting, talking about the rain, and another day bouncing in a jungle gym screaming about business leads. Consistent message, consistent tone, consistent look & feel. Also, be sure to put a call to action in your video’s description, as well as the full URL of your website’s landing page, and use appropriate keywords.

3) Article marketing is an evergreen method for outstanding traffic generation, with one HUGE caveat — mix it up! Putting the same article on 400 article directories will get you nowhere fast. You will get a bump in traffic from all the inbound links until Google figures out they’re all the same article and basically count it as one link. There are content spinners out there that alter the content of your articles automatically, but you have to be very careful here as well. Most content spinners change a word or two to replace it with a synonym, or they mash up the article randomly so the output is basically junk that cannot be read. It has to pass human review. So if you’re looking for a quality content spinner, ideally you want to be able to change the entire sentence many times throughout the article, and then have it spin those into hundreds of different articles. That’s the professional way to do it. At the bottom of your article, have a call to action in the information field; a blurb about you (the author) and a link to a free guide the reader can pick up at your website.

Visitors Taking Action

1) Keep it simple. The landing page has to do ONE thing — get people to ACT. For this reason, it’s been called a SINGLE ACTION PAGE. Pear it down to the bare essence of what you need the visitor to do. Consider placing a video on the page with a very simple message, “Hey thanks for stopping by for my free whizbang. Just type in your first name and e-mail address and I will rush it right over to you. In just a moment after you send your information, you’ll get an e-mail with a confirmation link. Click that link and I will instantly send your free whizbang.”

2) Direct, direct, direct. Notice the video script in #1 above — see how we instructed the user on exactly what they need to do? And then we told them what to expect next, and what they would then need to do. And we closed with a reminder of the benefit — the free whizbang.

If you have trademarked the term “whizbang,” then I apologize in advance. ;)

3) Test, test, test. ALWAYS have two versions of your landing page operating at one time. You can optimize your landing page using freely available Google tools in the Web Optimizer toolbox. You really can’t go on “gut” here — the data will be you every single time. Even on PPC ads, we have literally seen the addition of a question mark in the ad increase conversion by 16.8% So test, test, test.

Conclusion

These methods work on any business in any industry. Here is some social proof –

Local landscape designer increased her traffic by 7,342% (yes seven thousand percent)

 

     

  • Local artist went from three visitors a day to an average of 41 visitors a day
  •  

  • International digital publisher had zero e-commerce and started converting 16% of all traffic to revenue within 72 hours of implementing one traffic strategy and one conversion strategy
  •  

  • Changing a landing page to a simple design on an e-book site turned conversion from an anemic two sales per week to eight sales a day — on the same traffic.
  •  

I hope this helps your business. The average business fails to do what it takes to drive traffic or achieve conversions to their website. While they exercise 20-30 traffic methods on average, they don’t do a single one effectively.  There are many sources online to learn about effective marketing strategies, including free resources and some almost-free, like the definitive guidebook  750 Lead Generation Secrets.

Do-it-for-you solutions are also available; experience guides the appropriate strategy for the website and market. The biggest challenge business owners face is knowing which strategy to implement. Experimentation can be very costly in terms of time and lost sales… The key is to find a reputable marketing firm that offers a full range of customized services as well as downloadable products and courses to assist every website owner at every budget level.

How to Buya Used Utility Trailer

Posted on May 31st, 2009 by admin

Today, more and more people are buying small trailers of one sort or another. Considering fuel prices and the common act of downsizing family vehicles, owning a good utility trailer makes sense. The main reasons behind owning a trailer is usually based upon business or a family hobby which requires transporting your large toys. Utility trailers can range from small open bed landscaping style trailers to larger enclosed cargo trailers with locking ramp style doors. There are also snowmobile trailers, motorcycle trailers, camping trailers large and small and of course, and boat trailers to mention some. The first step in shopping for a trailer is to decide which type is best for your personal needs.

If you intend to haul small recreation vehicles or motorcycles, then an open flatbed trailer might serve your needs. Then again, if you need extra space at home for storing your toys, you might consider going with a larger enclosed trailer. These are easily locked and stored next to a house or driveway. You would be surprised at how much space you can find in your garage when you start moving your recreation vehicles and such to a storage trailer.

Through the years, I’ve bought and sold many trailers relating to my business and also my hobbies. As most of us find, locating a good used trailer can be a challenge at times but with the advent of online trailer sales, this problem has been solved. You can almost always find the exact type and size trailer you are looking for if you have a bit of patience. It is also very handy to be able to purchase all your trailer parts and accessories on the web also. You can easily find everything from replacement lighting to axles and brakes for just about any utility trailer without leaving your desk.

If you see a new trailer in your future, you really should click through and read this excellent article that will help you select the best utility trailer for your personal needs.

Network Marketing - using words to grow a business

Posted on May 29th, 2009 by admin

Words are powerful indeed. Words can be positive or negative depending on their use. Used to encourage the faint hearted they are welcome. Used to build up the community we live in simply amazing. Words are powerful tools that can be life changing.

When they are used to tear somebody else down and deflate their dream useless words are pretty much useless – unless you are a politician running a negative ad campaign I suppose.

We use words to promote products, dreams and lifestyles. Our words are focused explaining how you can create a website and reach the world with a new idea. Amazing as it would sound, you do not have to be the editor of the New York Times or the BBC to change the world anymore.

Network Marketing is a rather simple concept. It is centered on a dream of building a successful business promoting and selling a product with the goal of finding others to do the same while earning a little bit of their sales. When this rather revolutionary idea was first proposed the idea was nearly made illegal in the United States. Luckily for us, common sense and the entrepreneurial spirit prevailed and today the concepts of vertically integrated business exist everywhere you look.

Words can explain powerful concepts, topple governments and oust tyrants. For us, we use them to explain a better way to run a business by helping others also become successful - network marketing.

Thinking before you speak, and speaking only things that benefits others is a wise strategy. Speaking things that help other succeed is doubly wise. Read some of our words on network marketing and nutritional supplements by following this link.

Hosting Company Meetings in Portland Can Make You a Business Superstar

Posted on May 27th, 2009 by admin

Successfully hosting corporate events in Portland can help you establish or enhance the reputation of your business. It can also strengthen the already strong bond that exists between your company and existing clients. When done well, the right corporate event can transform a casual acquaintance into a client, or greatly increase the loyalty of your existing customers.

Corporate events are a venue to swap ideas and get involved with new networks. These events are the perfect place to court new possible clients, not only by displaying what you have done for others, but by allowing potential customers to engage your current roster, and experience first-hand the wonders of your company.

How to Get Started

Hosting a corporate event can be a great experience for the entire team. Company staff can be divided into small groups who each bring their own contribution to the table. For example, one group can be in charge of food and beverages.

Food is one of the largest issues you will have to face when organizing the event, as it must be decided whether to use a caterer or assume responsibility directly. Using a caterer might be more convenient and less stressful.

However, this benefit comes with a price. Carefully planned food purchases by multiple people can pose a challenge when hosting comapany meetings in Portland, though it is generally less expensive. You may want to put a separate group in charge of alcohol (if you choose to make it an available part of the festivities) as this brings an entire list of outside issues into play.

Running Things Smoothly

Large events generate a large amount of people. It is important to consider your available space, and design the event accordingly. Perhaps the office setting would prove too cramped, and an outside venue should be booked.

Not everyone invited will attend, but you must make sure that there is room for everyone on the list. It is more likely that existing customers will join you, but you also want to ensure that there are enough appetizers to make the rounds.

If planning the event with in-house staff proves a poor choice, then hiring a specialist might be a better use of company resources. Either way, hosting special events in Portland can make you a business superstar.

What’s the Deal with Blogs that Make Money?

Posted on May 27th, 2009 by admin

Blogs that make money are few and far between and the true make money blogs are typically specialized and target a certain niche market. Try to focus on a subject that is narrow, products like Me2Everyone and Project Payday work very well in addition to review websites with affiliate links to services like Aweber.

Then they may have come across a few honest internet marketers that offered them real knowledge in the form of articles and explained how with a little time dedication and hard work successfully learn how to make money online.

It is also wise if you spend a few weeks studying proper search engine optimization techniques. This will be extremely crucial if your goal is to learn how to make money online . It was only natural to be skeptical but when people really read what these internet marketing experts had to say, their eyes were opened to a whole new world and a new way to make a buck, finally they understood how to be successful.

Have you took a moment and just thought about what it would be like if you could make money in your sleep? Wouldn’t it be great to build a business like blogger unleashed? All these strategies if applied will give you more freedom to do what you want to do, when you want to do it! Why wait to live your dreams and to give yourself the advantages and blessings that you truly deserve and desire? It’s not bad to obtain nice things and experiences for youself, in the end it may make it easier to do the same for others… 

Would you really want to wake up every morning and go to that boring job and then slave it out for 8 hrs only to face the rush hour traffic trying to make your way home to an empty fridge and a cold apartment? You will feel like you had awful plastic surgery and everybody in the world knows about it…

Why subject yourself to the monotony of being a wage slave when you could go to mexico or the carribean islands and sip on margaritias while surfing the web and doing a bit of work with sattelite wi-fi? If you don’t start to build residual income streams now, you will never be truly free from this financial cycle that catches many in its path. The power and control is completely your’s if you choose to take it. It will require patience, discipline and determination among other things but the fruits of your labor will be extremely sweet.
