Low and behold, this came across my Inbox today… on a day that I was feeling very sorry for myself and very angry and sad. Things were happening (life happens) and I cried for hours, something I normally do not do. I am an over achiever and have a mind that saying keep moving forward.
At 11:00 PM, I finally decided to get out of bed and do something constructive.
I got on my computer (because that is one of the things I love doing) and I opened this email from a friend. It was an email that I had received earlier today, but did not take the time to watch.
Boy, did this put things into perspective.
What I take from this, is that life is what you make of it, no matter how the cards are dealt. Nick says, “It’s a lie to believe that you’re not good enough.”
So many people think that they have no value, no purpose, or no direction. They are angry at their circumstances or situations. But you are highly valuable, and you are good enough. You can achieve, and be and have anything you want.
Nick Vujicic is truly an inspiration, and I am grateful to have received this gift of seeing how he chose to live his life, and watching him talk to those girls.
I just want to spend one more video on explaining on these two circles over here and how you earn the money with this big picture. I hope you realize because I speak quite quickly, I hope you realize that most of the people who introduced the opportunity to and who you market to and who is on your list, most of the people will not join you in any business opportunity that you offer them whether its a Traditional MLM or a Top Tier direct sales program.
So let me repeat that, most of the people that you prospect will not join you in your primary business opportunity. Now, that makes you quite alarming to you and it may become as a surprise and discourage you. But what top earners are doing, because of that back is that they have expanded proposal, with they are offering products and services to all of those prospects to earn commissions of them. Because they are looking for tools and resources on how they will successfully grow their business online.
So they want these affiliate product offerings that you give them as long as you give them quality offerings, for quality services for quality products. They want those, so that is what everybody’s doing to monetize their list. They are earning affiliate commissions off of their list.
Now the once that is joining you in your businesses that is just gravy on the top, but if you are just relying on building your business, then it’s going to take you quite a long time before you start earning a large residual income tax cheque. So why not earn a full time income by doing all through these components.
I really want you to understand that from the proposal and how essentially is and how everyone is doing this including myself. So call me if you have any questions, this is a lot to digest but I hope that you get the idea of the big on how to be a success online.
Continuing on the discussion on the big picture of what we are trying to achieve here online bringing our home businesses online. Now we talked about driving traffic into our sales funnel through paid and free methods and social networking. We talked about our prospect’s information so that we can market to them over and over again.
Because it will take seven interactions on average before a prospect will take action and when we market to them we’re building a relationship to them because we’re adding value into their lives and that is essential to attraction marketing.
Now let’s talk about this video on the circles over here and this is where we earn our money. Now for every hundred leads that come into your sales funnel approximately two of them might you on your traditional primary network marketing business. Okay only two on the average.
Now what happens to the other 98% driving that traffic and attracting those leads into your sales funnel and you built relationships with them. Not everybody can join you on your primary MLM. So what we do is called a funded proposal and that is where we monetize the other 98 people at a very hundred.
We monetize our list by offering them products and services that they already need and want, because this is the target market that we’re going after here this is our home business owners who are trying to have success on their business online and they are looking for information products and tools on how did you do this, you can offer those tools, all the quality tools. And so this is that is called Affiliate Sales. You earn money of the affiliate sales on the people on your list.
Now some of them will join you on your primary business, most of them will not. But what happens here because of this relationship building and the content that you are providing them, they will begin to know you, like you and trust you and some of them will join you on your primary business.
Now I have to tell you that it takes quite a long time for a traditional MLM to build up a full time income of your cheque from that company. So what the top earners are doing in this industry is also they are offering a Top Tier Primary program which is a direct sales program.
That allows you to do is earn money upfront, from people that joined you and that opportunity so that you can get income between these two sources between the Affiliate Marketing Sales and the Top Tiers Direct Sales Program. You can be earning income upfront while you build your long term residual income to a traditional primary MLM.
I hope that it makes sense when you look for top two programs you want to pick one it’s going to earn you significant income from the work that you put in. The one that I belonged to earns me thousand dollars commission cheque for every sale I make. I hope it fix all together now for you, you understand the big picture. It is absolutely critical to have this sale funded proposal because otherwise you will spend a lot of time doing this whole side here and you’re going to be waiting and waiting for that residual income cheque to get larger over here.
And so without having affiliate sales you won’t have enough money to paid for some of this paid advertising which would speed up the entire process so it is essential that you offer products and services or sale so that you can earn those commission dollars. Subscribes to my channel I’ll be giving you a lot more useful content that can help you grow your businesses online.
The man who makes a success of an important venture never wails for the crowd. He strikes out for himself. It takes nerve, it takes a great lot of grit; but the man that succeeds has both. Anyone can fail. The public admires the man who has enough confidence in himself to take a chance. These chances are the main things after all. The man who tries to succeed must expect to be criticized. Nothing important was ever done but the greater number consulted previously doubted the possibility. Success is the accomplishment of that which most people think can’t be done.
Just to recap or talking about the overall picture here on what we are trying to achieve here on the internet being our home businesses online. We’ve talked about Lead Capture being the hub. Because it is essential that you capture your prospect’s information your website’s visitors information so that you can communicate with them over and over again, overtime through emails, through your videos and through your blog post.
It is absolutely essential because that is how you build the relationship with your prospects that is how they are going to get to know you, like you, trust you and then eventually sign up with you in your primary business or take action open their wallets and buy products and services from you.
So we talked about lead capture, we talked about adding content and we talked about paid and free methods for driving traffic into your funnels so if you haven’t seen those videos please go review them.
We’re going to move on to another way how to drive traffic into your sales funnel. Before talking any further, let me tell you first about Web 2.0 and this would be conflicted MySpace and Facebook and all other social networking sites that are popping out all over and are attracting millions of millions of people so if you are not involve with the social networking sites yet, you must because you are missing out on a big part of the pie here.
From people do since people directly to their sales funnel on lead capture page fund, the social networking sites, profiles however more and more people are sending their prospects directly to their blog, because there are so many who are people following the lead capture method that now the best idea. When somebody wants to see what you’re all about from your MySpace profile from your Facebook profile.
They just want to give you their lead information at this point their contact information. They want to get to know you first. Sending people directly into your blog or information type website like a branding website mine is donaabreu.com is very effective. And then if they want to see what you have all about and they might like you then from your blog you should sure you have a link to your lead capture website.
And then they can enter into your funnel sales that way. Then continue to market to them adding value into their lives, helping them solve problems through your emails, through your videos, through your blog post. You are adding content/value into their lives.
Social Networking, check it out it’s an absolute must, you are missing out if you are not involve. Stay tune for the additional videos on the other components of this big picture.
Continuing on the discussion on the big picture of what we are trying to achieve here by taking our home businesses online on the internet to generate a full time income. Now we talked about lead capture already and I encourage you to go back and review the earlier videos that you have and seen them already. Because they are essential on understanding on the overall picture. We talked about our content and how important it is to put content on the internet. These are free methods for driving traffic into our sales funnels and because we are putting valuable content out there. We are putting attraction marketing at work. We are attracting like-minded individuals who resonates with us in our writing and in our videos and our comments.
They are resonating with us and they are going to be the highest quality leads that we can put into our sales funnel, because of that attraction marketing that is at work. We also talked about paid advertisement, how that can generate us leads very quickly. Now what we should do with the leads now that we are building our lists we’re driving traffic to our lead capture page or capturing information on the prospects.
What are we going to do with them. Where we want to continue building that relationships with these prospects. We want them to get to know us, we wan them therefore to like us, trust us, get to know us and trust us. How will we do that? We do that by sending them emails, that is one way. Now emails can be sent to our list people in an automated form by using auto responded tool such as A-waver and also we want to send emails to them just time sensitive emails so broadcasts something that maybe we just learned about we want to share with our prospects, because these people are wanting to learn about home business success and how do you like the internet to grow their home businesses. So they are interested in that kind of information so that’s we want to send to them.
And we can drive them into our videos as well because that’s how they going to get to know us even better. They may have come from our funnels from one of our videos but they might not have read an article or post and look at our signature file in that way they got to our lead capture page. So we want to send them to valuable content, value added videos that we create. Because videos is a fabulous way for our prospects to get to know us. That is why you can see content/value here because you don’t want to just pitch the opportunity to them in our emails and videos because nobody wants to be solitude they want to have problems solve so they want help with that.
So that is how we communicate with our lists and add value in their lives and we can also direct them into a blog if you have one and to the blog that you do So if you happen to do a blog post which has various valuable information and your readers might be interesting in learning then send them an email with the link to that blog post. This is very important this is how you are going to build to that trust. Stay tune for more videos to come!
We talked about Lead Capture already and we talked about one way of driving traffic.
Lead Capture is the hub because we want to capture our prospects information; we don’t want to loose them because we want to market on them over and over again. And we talked about some of the free strategies for driving traffic into our sales funnel to our lead capture page. Now another area that I want to go over is paid marketing strategies. There are many free ways that basically just take your time or you can outsource this which cause money but saves you time.
Paid Methods
Pay per click advertising is google adwords and those are the ads that appears to right in google when people do searches. Though it is not that essential but top earners are using pay per click to drive traffic to their lead capture pages. It is one of the best ways in getting leads very quickly. In one day it captures masses amount of leads into your sales fund. But for beginners, be careful because you can burn to a lot of money with pay per click advertising. So it recommended that you have to learn this before you take this on.
Solo Ads
Are basically when you don’t have your own list of leads when you’re just starting out and you just building your lead list, you can basically run to use the other people’s list who have hundreds and thousands of lists people prospects on the list already. So you can find ezines and you can send out the page you can send out a solo advertisement to another person’s list. And you would obviously want to pick a list as your target market as readers about list. If you’re targeting home business prospects you would want to find an ezine that has home business type leaders.
List Builders
Which are century tools like viral url and lead flip and list jaw. These are tools that you can use. Viral Url is about 200 for one year subscription. And you can friend out emails to all the members that exists in the viral url. And you can send them out every three days three thousand emails. And these are basically advertising that you are sending out to all of the members within the group that you joined.
Classified Ads
There are actually free classifieds in our paid classified and that is another way to do advertising which is paid ads to generate leads into your sales fund. There are many ways to pay for advertising on the internet.
Look for additional videos to discuss the others areas on the video in order to explain it to you. And I suggest that you subscribe to my channel so that you could be notified when we update our new post videos in this series.
Last time we talked about Lead Capture which is the hub of this entire video. If you have not seen the video yet, it is recommended for you to see it which is the part one of before this video.
Today, we’re going to talk about the different ways how to drive traffic to our lead capture website. Now I am going to focus on the three strategies: 1. Articles Posts 2. Videos Comments 3. PR’s (these are what we call content/value). The idea is that you put content value added marketing material out in the internet virally in many spots all over the internet to attract people back to your funnel. That is how we get leads into our lead capture website.
This could be in the form of articles, niche that you are targeting, this could be videos like this one in youtube, comments on blogs in niches that you are targeting as well or this could be in the form of press release. These are some of the few of the three marketing methods that you use to drive traffic back to your lead capture website.
The idea here is you are having content. You are adding value to the people’s lives; you are helping themselves their problems. You are not out there pitching your product opportunity that is a sure way to turn people off. Instead you are helping them which is in return you are building trust to and credibility to them through the content, articles or post you have posted.
If you already have built trust to them, they are going to find your website address to your lead capture page and they are going to enter their information. And then you can market on them over and over. This is how we drive traffic into our sales funnel. This is one of the methods and these are the three methods. Very important you don’t need to spend a diamond on this, all it takes is your time and commitment to use this strategy, now that is just one of the strategies that we teach in our team and in my mentoring and we’ll be reviewing many others and the rest of this diagram in the video to come. So I recommend you to subscribe on my channel so that you can be updated when I create on this additional videos
It’s amazing, and it reminds me to focus on having gratitude for the beauty we have in or lives, as opposed to the problems and undesirable situations.
Appreciating all the wonderful things in life, just brings more beauty into my life, and diminishes the problems and the aspects I don’t care for as much.
What am I grateful for?
I am grateful for my husband, Mike. And for my children, my family, home, friends, our good health, my business, business partners, life experiences (good & bad), my life, the internet, music, our incredible school my kids attend and their wonderful teachers, our community, and of course… air, water, rain, the sun and this beautiful planet we live on.
The Hub – the lead capture page. That is absolutely essential to your success online.
Now many of you with home business is maybe familiar with or you’re probably were given a company replicated website for your business and you had high hopes that company websites will bring you online and allow you to grow your business on a big world wide web.
Well I’m sorry to tell you that your company replicated website is going to serve nothing more than an online brochure that you can send your leads to for more information about your product to your company. It is not going to generate your new leads, it is not likely to generate new sales or bring you new business partners. It is a well known marketing fact that it takes seven interactions on average with a prospect before they will take action or open their wallets.
So if you put up a company replicated website on the internet, let say you do start driving some traffic to it the chances of your visitors actually joining you on your business opportunity on that first visit is next to nothing. And then you’ve lost that visitor because the chances of them finding your site again would be minimal given that there are thousands and hundred and thousands of others out there even within your company.
So what we follow is a strategy which is called Lead Capture – a one page website which has a purpose to capture the people’s information, the prospect that once to find out more information on your opportunity.
It has an often box where they can enter names and email address. You can also use this for your blog and even use it to email your prospect clients; you can drive them to your blog and to the areas where they can know you better. You can send them even videos, and for your emails you can send them over and over again about your updates.
Join me for my next videos since I am going to talk about each one of the components in this diagram to give you an idea how top earners earn full time and plus incomes from home on the internet.
