What is Your Path to Wealth Profile?

Posted: May 2nd, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Internet Marketing, Personal Growth | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

We all want greater wealth in our lives,and by wealth I don’t just mean money but the wealth of happiness that comes from doing what we love and  benefiting others.

One way of increasing our wealth is to look at people who have made it and then copy what they do.We could read the biographies of people like Richard Branson or Bill Gates and draw inspiration from them.The trouble is we will only succeed ourself if our wealth profile is the same as the person we are seeking to emulate.

We could take Gates and someone  like Warren Buffet and see they are two totally different people yet both have amassed huge wealth.Which one do we follow?Well to answer that we need to discover our own wealth dynamic.

This could take along time  but  fortunately Roger Hamilton of Wealth Dynamics has done all the work for us.

He has created the wealth dynamics test and you can take it yourself now by clicking here.

In the test Roger identifies differing types of entrepreneur and gives example of each.Bill Gates in a Creator,Warren Buffet is The Accumulator Sergey Brin is the Lord to name but a few.

Until you know what your wealth dynamic is you could be spending years trying to build a business that is not suited to you unique talents.Find the right one and you could accumulate wealth very quickly.

So I invite you to take a short test, to discover your wealth profile which could knock years off your path to riches.

I took it myself and found that I am a Lord! A Lord is someone who accumulates wealth by leveraging assets they do not necessarily control such as photo distribution.Someone else takes the photo and remains the copyright holder but the Lord sells it on via the internet and keeps a small commission.

If you are a great inventor of things then you will be a Creator like Gates.By taking the test you will learn not only your own profile but also what are the greatest strengths and weaknesses of that profile.This will be of massive use in helping you decide the people that need to be around you for your business to grow.

So take the test now. .It will only take about 20 minutes and your profile will be emailed to you.

Let me know how you get on and what your profile is.

Yours in mastery

Keep your blog comments out of the spam box

Posted: April 7th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Internet Marketing | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

You will know that posting comments on other people’s blogs is a great way to get back links to your site.Go after sites that have a high PR ranking and Google will like that.

The problem is that many blog owners throw out most of the blog comments they receive as they are just computer generated spam.Most have a Word Press plug in called Akisnet which does the job for them.If you don’t have this plug in install it now.I expect you are being overwhelmed with spam if it’s not installed.

Whilst this plug in is great it can weed out legitimate comments,comments perhaps made by YOU on  a blog.So you need to know how to post comments if you are to get through the filter.Here’s what to do:

  1. Use your real name not  some name stuffed with keywords.
  2. Link to your home page not a specific page on your blog as Akismet will notice this and mark you as spam.
  3. Leave long comments that add value to the debate that is going on.This is the big one.If you just say ” great post” that will be deleted.Show you have read the post and then add something that will help people.The blog owner will like you for it and encourage you to come back.People will see your helpful comments and come to your blog.
  4. Avoid “spammy” words such as any relating to gambling,debt consolidation or hair loss!

Follow these simple rules are you will get through the Akismet filter.

How to you get through the spam filters?Leave a comment and let me know.

Email list Building

Posted: May 24th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: Internet Marketing | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

“The money is in the list”

That being so I have started to build said list.I have bought some PLR products from the guru I am following.Cost was $97 for 12 products.They are well put together and relate to the make money on line niche.

I have used one to sell through Paypal and then added a free ebook via a pop-up webform.

So far no one has bought the main product but quite a few are grabbing the ebook  which gets me their email address.

So now the list is starting to build.I have 16 people on the list as I write this.Not many I agree but it is a start.

The important thing to remember is not to use every email you send out as a product pitch.You will get substantial opt outs if you do that.

The process is build a list,build a relationship with that list and then market to that list.

It’s the middle bit most people leave out.They so want to pitch products and make money they forget about building a relationship.The reader will just think “this person does not care about what I want they just want to sell me stuff”.

So give REAL content and give it free.You can introduce affiliate products from time to time but ensure they tie in with what you blog or websites is about.

Have your emails 4 days apart which is the default setting on Aweber the autoresponder I use.

After about 7 emails spread any subsequent emails out to seven days apart.

Follow this strategy and your own list will grow.

Best wishes

Affiliate Marketing Network Program

Posted: September 27th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Internet Marketing | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

For people looking to make money online affiliate marketing is one of the most popular methods to achieve this.You are essentially selling other people’s products by driving traffic to a merchant’s website.If a customer who clicked from your site to the merchant’s then buys a product you get a commission.

You don’t have to deal with the customer at all.Shipping and customer service is handled by the merchant.

Now you can go from one merchant to another and see if they have an affiliate program but that would take too long.

Much better to go to an affiliate marketing network program company who gather together a large number of merchants on one site,and you the affiliate marketer,can search for businesses who operate in the niche that interests you.

Then you sign up for that merchant,grab the HTML code for that merchant and put it on your website or blog.

Now the big two in affiliate marketing are

Commission Junction
and
Clickbank

which both have a huge amount of merchants to choose from.

Clickbank tends to offer more digital products such as ebooks and software whereas CJ offers physical products.

There are two others I use right now they are:

Affiliate Window

and

Buy.at

both of which are UK based so tend to have mainly British merchants.

I recommend you start with these big players first.If you really get into a niche,then do a Google search using ” xyz company+ affiliate program” and you should find if that company has such a program.

The alternative is to go to the company website and see if a program is offered.Sometimes you have to go into the site map to find details as the merchant is  looking for people with above average determination!

How to add an email list opt in box to your Facebook Profile

Posted: June 5th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Internet Marketing | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , | 2 Comments »

Here is a video I made which shows you how to add an html box to your profile page on Facebook,allowing your freinds to opt in to your email list.It sits on the left had side of your profile in the applications column.

Please don’t use this to do a blatant pitch of whatever you are selling,people won’t like it and will unfriend you.

What you need is an unobtrusive way of getting people on your list by firstly providing valuable content.Make sure what they are opting into provides that value.Anyway here is the video




The “why” of network marketing

I made this video whilst down on the beach at Sandbanks/Poole/Dorset/UK one Sunday recently.The day was really hot so the beach was packed.It was the end of half term week which also added to the crowds.

In the video I talk about being there the next day,Monday.There will be fewer people.Why? Because they are at work.Where would you rather be?

Here’s the video

Sorry,had a bad hair day!

Keep the energy up for up your home business opportunity.

Posted: April 19th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: mlm | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | 3 Comments »

We only have so much was energy to do all that we want to achieve in a day.Yet we allow so much of this energy to be drawn away from building our home business opportunity.

One of the big drains is the TV.It sits there in the corner of your living room,just asking to  be switched on.So perhaps you do, only you say, to watch the news.But then it stays on and you stay there watching .Before you know it ,the whole evening has gone.You energy has gone with it and you have nothing left to use on your home business opportunity.

You have got to start plugging these leaks,so begin with turning off the television. I got rid of mine.The TV licence people can’t believe it and send me threatening letters!

By doing this I have so much more time to work on my business, and my energy levels are up.

Another area is the drama of life that your friends and family try to suck you into.Of course you mus show compassion but don’t become attached to all the drama.You can still love them but being attached to the drama is not love.

Cut out the distractions of your life, clean up the clutter and focus on what is important.

Clutter can include all the stuff in the your home or office that you keep thinking you must get round to sorting out “someday”.

A great resource to deal with this is a book by David Allen called Getting Things Done the best book I have read on time management.

It shows how to get all things to your “in” box,process and sort them, then dump the chunk.

You can get it from amazon here:

I have followed his advise and taken so much stuff to the local tip.

So get rid of all the drama both in the world and in your head and see your energy levels go through the roof.You home business opportunity will look better too.

Best Wishes
