Want to sponsor more distributors? Want to sponsor better distributors? Want to build an incredible large and stable MLM organization?

Now you can! How?
By using some of Big Al's proven, easy, common sense techniques from his 30+ years of recruiting experience.
If you've attended any of Big Al's Super Sponsoring Workshops, then you know how these easy-to-use methods can supercharge any MLM downline organization. In this 12-CD training seminar, you'll learn the following:

The magic of word pictures: how to instantly transfer your vision to your prospects. You know and love your MLM program. Your prospects don't. Here is how you can give them your knowledge and feelings in less than two minutes. This is better than an opportunity meeting and it gives you instant results.

Seven hot, hot techniques to make any opportunity meeting a winner. Use these methods to shorten your meeting, make it more exciting, and to give more salesmanship and important information quickly to your impatient guests. You'll love the three-way close that helps your guests make an instant decision. The sections on testimonials and questions are must-listening for networking professionals who demands the best meetings for their organization.

The power of events: how the reaction makes the difference. When you understand the neutrality of events, you understand how to build a large and secure organization. Teach your prospects and distributors how events are non-factors in their success and your bonus checks and recruiting will soar.

How to separate the leaders from the masses. Many people will say they want to be a leader, but how do you know if they'll follow through on their commitment? Use these easy-to-test observations to determine the true potential of your next leaders. Why waste time with temporary distributors when you could be building a lifetime income and stress-free residual income by working with true leaders?

Why small earning potentials can ultra-motivate your prospects. Sure. Flash some big checks or promise big earnings. But, will that attract or scare your average prospect? Why not use the potential of the small bonus check to ultra-motivate new prospects? They can see themselves successfully earning a modest income while gaining the belief that large earnings are possible too. Watch your organization grow and super-multiply with these simple stories.

How to solve the "employee thinking" of new distributors. Prospects learn how to be good employees at school, at college, and on their job. If they take that thinking into their MLM business, they are guaranteed to quit after a few weeks or months. Give your distributors a new way of seeing their business that will keep them motivated and productive, and decrease your distributor turnover.

Giving prospects confidence that they can succeed. Prospects would love to join and earn extra money in your MLM program, but most will say "no" because they don't feel they have the skills or ability to succeed. Give your prospects instant confidence with the "open your own restaurant" and other stories. Your prospects will jump at the chance to fulfill their dreams in your MLM program. Remember, no one will join your MLM program unless they think they can succeed.

Two stories that build instant trust in prospects. People fear the unfamiliar. When you make network marketing as familiar as daily living, you remove the biggest obstacle to sponsoring. These two stories literally bring your prospects to your side of the table and prompt them to become a partner with you during your presentation. Sponsoring is easy when you are presenting your MLM program to a partner instead of a skeptical, sales-resistant, objection-spouting prospect. Why not make sponsoring presentations easy for yourself and your downline?

How the "most people" story takes away prospect objections. If you use the "most people" story before your presentation, you can breeze through the toughest presentations stress-free. Why? Your prospect will join with you to find a solution to the missing check.

The very best source for pre-sold prospects. It's easy to find people who won't join your business. Now you can turn them into super referral prospecting machines. Ordinary referrals are no more than a cold name and phone number. Use this awesome five-step super-referral technique to have prospects come to your door - pre-sold! Your prospects will ask if you could please spend some time with them to give them a presentation and to enroll them in your program. This constant flow of pre-sold prospects will excite even the shyest distributor.

Decisions: make it easy with two choice questions. Break down complex presentations and concepts with these easy two-question mini-presentations. They laser-focus your prospects' attention to the true core issues and avoid procrastination and confusion. They are also great for prospecting.

Success is not finding the right person, but being the right person. This simple concept will change how your distributors sponsor and attract new people. When the character and work ethic of your organization changes, so will your bonus check. This is a totally different way of prospecting that also produces better leaders. Get your group on the road to self-improvement now!

Getting rid of liabilities. Yes, we've heard it all. "My sponsor is a jerk." "The products are too expensive." "My sponsor lives too far away." "You can't make any money with this program." Get rid of these depressing liabilities quickly so your organization can grow and recruit without dragging these anchors around with them. As a bonus, a liability-free existence will attract even more distributors to your program.

How your actions control other people. Your actions control and affect other people whether you are conscious of it or not. For instance, if you inadvertently cut off another driver on the freeway, the driver's attitude is affected by you whether you realized your mistake or not. Teach your distributors to use this power to help and improve their prospects' and distributors' lives. And as a bonus, your distributors will realize that they can create their own future and that they are not victims to outside influences. This will develop true leaders within your organization.

Using survey forms to test . . . and getting distributors for your efforts. Can changing just one or two words make a difference? Find out how a simple change can make ten times the difference in your bonus check . . . with exactly the same effort. Would you like ten times the prospects at your opportunity meetings? Ten times the distributors in your organization? Ten times your present bonus check? Well, you can't get those results until you test your changes. This easy-testing technique will actually sponsor some extra distributors into your organization as a bonus.

How to build leaders and make them successful. Distributors are great. Leaders are better. Use this easy-to-perform, leader-building method to guarantee loyalty and performance as you develop a steady stream of distributors into leaders. Could your life be easier with more self-sufficient leaders in your group?

How to enlist your upline to build one leader every month. What would your group look like if you could build one new leader every month? And, if you use this method, potential leaders will be attracted to you. They'll come to you and ask to join your organization. You can put this technique to use in just 30 days.

Preparing distributors for rejection-free prospecting. Distributors hate rejection. They will stop working to avoid rejection. Teach them the "time-of-life" method of prospecting so they can work rejection-free. Watch the change in your organization growth when your distributors consistently contact new people every week. As an added bonus, this technique makes prospecting more pleasant and builds a professional attitude in your new distributors.

Your 10-second answer that brings prospects to you. What do you do for a living? Can you answer that question in just one sentence? Probably not. Here are some ways to answer that question which will make your prospects say, "That's interesting. Could you tell me more about your business?" That makes recruiting easier.

You'll learn many more Big Al Sponsoring Secrets in this set. Order Big Al's MLM Sponsoring Secrets and start building your downline today! 8-CD training set PLUS 4 bonus CDs containing the Live In London workshop recording! Only $47.

My main online income stream recently closed its virtual doors, so now I'm left to rebuild from scratch. I've started a new venture promoting GDI. GDI offers websites, domain names, hosting and a great income opportunity. At $10 a month with a free trial, it's worth it for the web services alone, but with the added benefit of having a passive income stream attached.

This 7 minute video explains how it works.

Not Happy with Crazy

2010-10-09T19:25:00.002+11:00

I bought some .com.au domain names crom Crazy Domains for $12 each. I thought it was a good deal. Turns out, it's not. Having always used GoDaddy for my domains, where they include DNS hosting in the price, I naturally assumed that this would be included. I thought, naively, that DNS hosting would be a standard part of the deal. As it happens, Crazy Domains charge another $18/year to be the DNS host. So, your $12 domain name ends up costing you $40.

It's a shame GoDaddy don't do .com.au.

How to Make Money Doing Internet Marketing

Why Do You Need to Build a Mailing List Online to Succeed?

2008-12-08T09:58:00.001+11:00

You need to build a mailing list to succeed online to create a list of people that are interested in your products and services. The two best ways to get traffic to your page to build your list is through article marketing and pay per click marketing. Another one to add to your marketing mix is joint ventures, but you don't want to rely on them too much, since the results from most JV deals are not long-term and automated.

Generally, there are two ways to make sales online. You can send your prospects to a direct sales page or a catalogue and look to make sales like that. But typically the conversion rates are extremely low this way.

The other way to do it is to build a mailing list of subscribers, build a relationship with them, build up rapport, before you sell them anything. If you focus on just building a list on your page, you will get a far higher number of people in your funnel. If a sales page gets a conversion rate of 1-5%, you can typically get opt-in rates of 30-50% for a page that just looks to build a list instead of selling right off at the start.

This way, you don't lose as many potential prospects along the way. In fact, you get 30-50% into your marketing funnel, and then when you do promote any products, you will be able to sell more because you have built up that rapport and sense of trust. Remember, people buy from others they like. So you have to build a mailing list to build a long-term business online and increase your sales.

Blog revamp

2008-11-14T10:30:00.003+11:00

I noticed that while my lotto blog recieved the most visitors of any of my sites, it's Adsense earnings and click through rates were only one third of my other sites.

The most likely reason for this is the template that I was using for it. It had an Olde Worlde look and was too cluttered. I changed it to a cleaner template. It will be interesting to see when/if the Adsense CTRs and earnings improve as a result, and whether or not it generates more leads for my e-Lottery business.

Part of my review was to check the links. Luckily I checked because many of the links had changed at the target end. Instead of sending visitors straight to my lead capture page, they were going to a page where they had to request a Guest Login to proceed. I'm sure that extra step put a lot of people off. It's fixed now and people go directly to my lead capture page.

The moral of the story is that if something isn't working as well as you'd expect, fix it... and check your links every now and then.

I'll report back after a couple of months with the results.

Blog Spamming

2008-08-04T12:48:00.004+10:00

Blog spamming seems to be on the increase as a way of spamvertizing different websites.

I've even had a well-known affiliate in my company spamming my Lotto Blog with comments linking directly to his own affiliate site. I doubt that it's him personally doing the spamming, rather he's engaged some dodgy internet marketing outfit to "run a campaign" to do "comment marketing", by spam commenting on blogs with a poorly written comment and a link to their site.

It comes across as an amateurish way to market and I hope any budding entrepreneurs out there quickly learn that that kind of marketing activity is a waste of time, effort and money and only serves to diminish your reputation.

Stick to providing your own content, building relationships with your audience and control what's said on your blog or website.

Blogging as free advertising

2008-06-25T15:19:00.004+10:00

As internet marketers of whatever products we promote, we all need more free ways to create free traffic to our sites and our offers.

It's a numbers game, and the numbers required for any reasonable level of success are big. With click through rates in the single digit percentage region, you are going to need a lot of visitors to generate the number of click throughs to see any results. Whether you're trying to collect prospects for your MLM, trying to increase your Adsense revenue or just simply trying to present a product for sale, you need to have literally thousands of visitors to your sites every month.

Let's look at some numbers. Say you are trying to collect names and email addresses in your auto-responder or your company's email prospector - If your goal is to collect 5 new prospects a day, with a 1.5% conversion ratio, you would need to somehow attract 333 visitors per day, 2,331 per week and over 9,324 per month.

Now say your site is really compelling and achieves a 3% conversion ratio. Twice as much as in the first example - you'd still need more than 150 a day, 1,100 a week and 4,600 a month.

Do you find that a daunting prospect? You should!

That said, of course it's achievable. There are hundreds of thousands of websites that get huge amounts of free traffic.

The best source of free, targetted traffic is search engines - Google being King.

Did you know that publishing a blog is one of the easiest ways generate traffic and help you achieve your goals - be they collecting prospects, making sales or generating Adsense revenue.

Here's an example of one of the projects I've been working on to promote my products and business opportunity.

I produce a blog that has all the latest lottery results for popular UK, European and Australian lotteries. People searching for lotto results find my blog in Google or Yahoo search results and hey presto, there are some more free visitors. It's not particularly well designed and could look a lot better, but even in its current state it is doing it's job.

Some of these visitors click on the Google Adsense ads and my Adsense account gets a boost. Others click on the various links and banners which promote my UK Lotto and EuroMillions Lotto Syndicates. Some click through to play the free Grab a Grand competition and become double opt-in leads. All this for free from Blogger :)

If you don't have a blog, it's pretty quick and easy to set up on Blogger. Pick a topic and theme related to your business or some other interest and get started.

Time is money

2008-04-07T11:32:00.003+10:00

Having spent 60 hours plus at my day job last week, and thus having little time for my online marketing activities, I noticed that the results speak for themselves.

On every indicator - from fresh leads generated to Adsense earnings - all were down for the week.

So, I worked hard and made some money offline - but made only a little more online. This just shows that energy (and money) flows where attention goes!

The equation is simple - Time online = money online

The moral of the story is - if you can't find the time to put in, no business - online or offline can grow and pay you what you need. Find the time and you will be rewarded.

Dave Tatley: Uni Player to Global Online Business Owner

In my final year at university I decided to study network marketing, looking at different companies from all around the world, and I realised that e-lottery is by far the simplest MLM scheme I had come across. It’s just so simple, and user-friendly, with no lotions/potions to sell, no catalogues to deliver, and no money to handle. The company does all the hard work for us.

I graduated from university and took a job in commercial banking. In my job people come to me with business ideas (some good and some bad!), and then I decide if it’s a risk the bank wants to take to lend them the money they need. It struck me then that people are prepared to risk thousands - if not hundreds of thousands - of pounds on a business that isn't even proven to work.

It was only then that I truly realised what I had in my hands: a proven business for only a £5 investment (virtually risk-free) with truly massive global potential.

Working a busy full-time job, which involves me travelling around the country, working long hours, I have little time to promote e-lottery during the week, so I tend to do simple things every day. It’s amazing how a little each day can build up into a global business.

Everywhere I go, I carry promotional business cards, a little notebook for collecting email addresses, and of course, the company DVD. If it’s simply handing a business card to someone in the supermarket car park, or asking people if they play the lottery, it all helps.

All I want to do is get someone to watch the movie, and then let it do all the work for me. The promotional video is amazing, and it presents the e-lottery opportunity - either Player or Affiliate - perfectly every time. Once they have seen the DVD, it’s up to them to decide if they join or not… and whilst they decide, I simply show someone else the DVD, and so the process goes on.

Something like 80% of my business has come from people watching the DVD. At the same time, this system is duplicatable, and this is where the power of networking really kicks in.

Everyone can show someone a DVD, which means that everyone can do this business.

I have a great, growing team of people, and they are all copying what I do, showing the DVD to other people. It’s really that simple. Between January 1st 2008 and February 10th 2008, nearly 100 people have joined the team.

My first goal with e-lottery is to clear my student debt, and then to get on the property ladder. And to do all this whilst still earning a wage. Ultimately the dream is to leave my job, and actually own my own life.

I attend every company training possible and encourage my team to do the same. I spent five years at university and a lot of money studying, and so it makes sense to spend a little time learning about the industry and the company, which really can give us the lifestyle we want.

e-lottery is a superb business opportunity, with over 100 million lottery players out there, most of whom probably have never heard of e-lottery... that’s a huge market still to go at! The only question is, how much of it will you have in your business?

Do something every day and never quit, and the rest will follow.

On his return to the UK, Paddy began looking for a business that he could build in his spare time, to give his pension a welcome boost when he leaves the Army in a few years’ time. He realized the e-lottery Affiliate programme was just what he was looking for, especially with the massive potential around Europe for EuroMillions – millions of people there buy EuroMillions lottery tickets, but aren’t aware of e-lottery.

So, Paddy joined e-lottery as an Affiliate for both EuroMillions and the UK Lotto, and started telling his friends and family members about it. He couldn’t believe how simple it was just to share with people that he’s joined an online lottery syndicate, and they could too!

In his first three weeks as an Affiliate, just by speaking to some of his contacts, he was already a Senior Affiliate!

How Paddy Did It
After eight days, he qualified for the “Fast 5 Bonus” by introducing five new members… and got himself a free EuroMillions syndicate place!

After 10 days, he qualified for ANOTHER "Fast 5" free bonus syndicate, by introducing ANOTHER five people to e-lottery!

And after 20 days, he had personally introduced 15 Affiliates all together, and was promoted to Senior Affiliate! Wow!

Paddy said, “The biggest limitations in life are those we inflict on ourselves. I just want to make the most of life. I’m trying to teach people to ‘Get Out of Their Own Way’ and get on with life… and make the most of it by helping each other and giving value to those who are ready to have more financial freedom and more time freedom.”

“You only have one life, so make the most of it. I have seen a lot of people who don't ever get that option, so don't waste it.”

He likes to share this “little story about risk” with people:

There was a very cautious man who never laughed or cried

He never won, he never lost

He played it safe and never tried

He went to work, he earned his bread

He watched the TV and went to bed

He felt secure, he felt no pain

He took no risk, he made no gain

And when one day he passed away

His insurance was denied

…for since he NEVER really lived

They claim he never REALLY died!

Paddy adds, “I cannot believe I’m getting so many free syndicate entries, and e-lottery are actually paying me as well! This is such a simple business, and anyone can do it… it’s just a case of telling people and spreading the word about e-lottery!”

"So ask yourself today, 'Why Not Me?' and decide to GO FOR IT with e-lottery!"

Cut the crap!

2008-02-03T12:31:00.001+11:00

Don't know where this came from, but it strikes a chord...

OK, who's tired of all the hyped up crap being peddled and the inflated egos doing the peddling. They come in many different varieties.

1. The religious type
2. The new age love in type
3. The rags to riches type
4. The LMC dreamer/achiever
5. The midlife crisis brigade
6. The serious "entrepreneur"
7. The guy who's convinced himself that a $20 a week paycheque is worth all the effort
8. what else?

The thing that they all have in common is their desire to influence your decisions - specifically, they want to give you "information" so you can make an informed decisions and fall at their feet begging them to let you join their business. They give you all the positive information about their proposal, without hightlighting any of the potential risks associated with any business venture - small and home based or mega multi-national public and private companies.

They then tell you that you've done your "Due Diligence" - you've read all the material you were presented with and saw no downside. Now the novice will believe the hype and convince themselves that they've made the right move. They spend their money - usually making some large credit card purchases for product, leads, membership - whatever - and call it an investment. Sure, it is, but if credit card interest rates are often quite high - a good 10% over rates on mortgaes and personal or business loans. This means they have to start selling or recruiting straight away, to firstly get some of all of their money back, then to pay the credit card.

How to Become Effective at Prospecting - By Todd Falcone

How to Become Effective at Prospecting

By Todd Falcone

Over the past few years I have a large number of people ask me, "Todd, how do I become better at prospecting?" Or, "Todd, what is it that you are doing that allows you to sponsor so many new people into your business every month, while I struggle to get in one or two people every now and then"?

The answer is relatively simple. First of all, I have called literally thousands of people over the past ten years. I've had plenty of practice. And today, I still call hundreds of people every week. However, that is not the complete answer. Here's a more detailed answer as to how to become more effective at prospecting.

How do we define an effective prospector? Or, what are the character traits of someone who we would describe as an effective "recruiting machine"?

Becoming an effective prospecting machine begins with Attitude and Self-Talk. How do you feel about you? Do you feel confident and self-assured when you get on the telephone? Are you the leader your potential prospects are looking for? Those of us that are effective at bringing large numbers of people into our business have a positive outlook on themselves and their ability to effectively communicate their message. They feel confident that they have the ability to attract other quality like-minded individuals to their business.

It begins with your posture. Posture doesn't mean being rude, nasty, mean or abrasive. It means projecting yourself in a confident, positive, serious manner. When I'm doing business, it's not a hobby. I am "deadly serious" about my enterprise, and my prospects know it. Yes many of you who know me have heard me say that prospecting is a "game". But, let me ask you, do you think Tiger Woods treats the game of golf like just a game? It takes time, practice and repetition to get extremely good at anything. It's a game only in the sense that our goal is to win, and those that are serious about their business have no other option other than winning. Prospecting with posture is about you sending the message that you are the leader, the coach, or mentor that people are looking for. I have come to realize over time that posture is the ?root element? of attracting the right kind of people to your business.

Those that don't have posture are communicating that they need someone to join them, that they want them in their business, and that they are chasing them. If you want to get good, don't chase. You've got to be willing to "take away" the opportunity from your prospect. It's a lot like dating. Think about a time when you were very interested in someone, you showed up at their locker, wanted to take them to lunch, and generally were pushing yourself on them. What happened? They had no interest in you and dated someone else. Of course, six months later when you were "over it", they now came back to you and wanted to be your boyfriend or girlfriend. Folks, it works the same way when you are prospecting. If your prospect thinks you "need" them, they are going to run in the opposite direction. Conversely, if you show through your posture and attitude that you don't need them and that you are the leader they have been looking for, they often times will join your business.

To become effective at recruiting and prospecting requires time, action, energy and consistency. It requires a commitment over a long period of time. Prospecting is a process. Learning how to prospect is a process. It is not an event. It is an evolution. Becoming an effective recruiting machine takes practice and determination. You must have a willingness to develop and learn, and the staying power to see it through to the end. Successful recruiters don't quit, period. There is no "out" for them. They are committed, locked and loaded, and guns a blazing.

Massive sorting is they key to success. We must identify and qualify potential prospects for our time. Prospects NEVER give me the "runaround", nor do I ever allow them to take control of the interview. I am always the one in control. I don't sell, convince or coerce. During the interview process, 80% of my time is spent listening, 20% is asking and answering. I now know why we were given two ears and only one mouth, and use them accordingly.

It's all a numbers game. We are in the business of collecting decisions. Those of us that have become effective at this game don't get upset when we get a "no". In fact, we see a "no" as a positive. It is a time to rejoice! We have collected a decision. We don't take "no" personally. It's all part of the game. We're getting the job done. We are collecting decisions, whether no or yes. We talk to literally thousands of people over time about the opportunity. How many people have you talked to in the past week, month or year? Think about the numbers, you have to play the game. For new recruiters, you will make up in numbers what you lack in skill short-term. As you become better, your results will increase. Live with it. That is the reality that you are facing. Understand that as you get better, so will your results.

We get paid for production, not for time we spend in our business. Many novices spend their time getting ready to get ready, shuffling papers and organizing their office. When the week is done, they fool themselves into thinking they've put in a full-week, when in all reality they have done nothing. Don't confuse time with production. Why do they do this? FEAR. Ask yourself at the end of each day, "What did I produce today"? Focus only on production results are all that count. Here's a good philosophy to live by: If you don't get paid for doing it? don't do it! I also do not get involved in politics. Why? Because I learned long ago that politics and production don't mix. And, because we get paid only from production, I stay completely away from politics and gossip, who said what, she did that, can you believe what he said, are not part of the producers vocabulary. I am bringing this up only because that as we grow a larger organization, certain issues come up that can turn into a political nightmare. This always takes away from our ability to produce. How do you deal with it? Confront the issue head-on, diffuse it, and get back to recruiting and building your business.

Big time recruiters are Self-Motivated. They do it because they want to. They love to recruit. Making the call is fun to them. They understand that by doing it consistently, they will get far more than they put into it. In order to succeed in this game, you have to have the personal motivation to work through the necessary numbers to get the desired results. Whatever it takes is engrained in their mind. If it is to be, it's up to me. They don't see their upline as a "crying pillow". They are mentally tough and willing to overcome obstacles regardless of what it takes.

They have a crystal clear vision both in their mind and on paper of where they are going to be 6 months or 12 months from now. They have written down, specific goals that they focus on. They have a core belief, a reason WHY they must succeed.

Effective prospectors are level headed. They don't get jacked up and overly excited when a new person signs up or says they're going to sign up. Oh, my gosh, I am so excited, Mary is going to join my business. She is powerful. She is going to make my business explode!? This type of thought does not enter the mind of an effective recruiter. They are totally on even keel. And, the same goes for when someone says no. They take it with a grain of salt. OK, bye, next prospect.

Effective prospectors think prospecting is fun and effortless. They see opportunity in everything they do. Everything they do emanates confidence and professionalism. They take massive action all the time. They understand that regardless how effective they may be, they still play large numbers. They talk to new people all the time. They are constantly working on their communication skills and the English language to give them more power in their words.

They are very good listeners. They hear closing signals because they listen. They hear the how questions and focus on them. People don't think of them as great salespeople or great talkers. They are great listeners and very effective and getting the job done. Novices tend to hear nothing because they spend all their time thinking what they are going to say next as their prospect is talking. That is why they sponsor so few people. New recruiters need to learn to say less, ask, and then listen.

What are the tools or equipment of an effective recruiter?

Telephone with headset is a must. Hands- free. Cordless headset is preferable.

A tape recorder that allows you to tape telephone calls.

Voice mail and answering machine with a professionally sounding message is a must.

Planner and phone log to schedule appointments and calls, and to track your responses, results, number of calls, number of dials, etc.

Leads and lots of them. There are lots of sources out there. The bottom line is you have to have enough leads so that you never, ever become emotionally attached to your prospect.

Here is my basic process while prospecting?

I have a very specific agenda, an objective for each call. Personally, I do not follow a script. It's the agenda I have in my mind. I don't follow a script because I have planned and spent time preparing for the calls. My objective is to attract quality like-minded people to my business. They do this by following a specific plan of action. I never shoot from the hip. When I pick up the phone, I know WHY and WHAT I will be doing.

Dial the prospect and engage them in conversation.
Hi is Joe in please. Hi Joe, this is Todd Falcone calling you from California. I'm calling because your name was referred to me as someone serious about starting their own home- based business and generating additional income, is that correct??

If and only if I get a definitive "yes" will I continue the call. I am not in the business of convincing people that they need to be in a business. Either they ARE looking or they are not. Period.

Determine if you are catching them at a good time.
"Great, am I catching you at a good time to talk for a few minutes"?
Qualify and Interview Them.
At this point, I have determined that the prospect is looking for an opportunity. Here's the question I am asking myself, "Is this person worth my time"? I am not in the business of pitching anyone who is willing to listen. I'm in the business of locating like-minded quality individuals. So, if the person has said, "Yes, I am interested in making money", but doesn't sound like a quality person, I GAP them. Tell them to Grab a Pen, and send them to an overview call. I'll give them my phone number and tell them to call you if they like what they hear. Now, if the prospect sounds like the type of person I may be looking for, I INTERVIEW THEM! I'll ask them what they do, how long they've been doing it, what they like about it or don't like about their job, what type of income they're accustomed to, what type of income they would like to be earning, etc. Most importantly, I ask them WHY THEY WANT TO BE IN A HOME-BASED BUSINESS. We have to find out what their primary motivation is for seeking an opportunity. We have to find out what is it other than money they are looking to achieve. What will the money buy them? Freedom to spend time with their kids, the opportunity to walk away from a dead-end job, put their kids in a good college, etc.
Take them through the information gathering process.
Given that I am this far in the interview process, I've determined that the person has the qualities I desire in my business. I now simply take them through the information gathering process so they can make a relaxed and informed decision about joining the business.

"Gosh Joe, you sound like the type of person I might be looking for in my business. What I need to do now is get information into your hands so that you can make a relaxed and informed decision."

Now, I'll either book them on a live call, take them to a pre- recorded overview, or my website. Take the prospect to whatever it is that you have available to provide them immediate information.

Take their temperature.
Once they have listened to the call, my objective is to determine how interested they are in joining the business. My favorite way of doing this is by asking one simple question.

"Great Joe, well that call explains in pretty good detail who we are, what we do, and how we generate our income. On a scale of one to ten, one being curious and ten, I am ready to start making money with you right now, where do you see yourself"?

I never settle for curious or serious. I get the answer that I am looking for. If they are a 5 or less, I'll thank them for their time and tell them that they are not the right candidate for my business. If they are a 6 to 9, I simply ask them "WHY". They will tell you.

Three Way Call.
When you do a three-way call with your upline during this process it is for one reason, and one reason only, to CLOSE the person. Your upline should know this, and be taking your prospect to the point of collecting a decision before the three- way is done. Here are some rules for three-way calling: A) Prior to placing the call to your upline, edify them. Make sure your prospect knows that you are putting them on the phone with a very successful person in your business, a leader on your team, so they have respect for them before they meet them. B) Never ever ask your prospect if it is o.k. to call someone else? just do it! C) When you call your upline to let them know you have a person on the line you would like to introduce them to, NEVER, EVER have the person already clicked back to you. This is your chance to briefly tell your upline who this person is. Example (Mark, this is Todd. I have Joe Blow on the line. He has an advertising background, has never been in MLM, and told me he was an 8 after listening to the 10-minute call). D) Never interrupt your upline when on the call. They are the expert. Every time that you interrupt them you are telling your prospect that your upline is not as important and successful as you purported them to be. They do all the talking.

If your sponsor is not helping you collect a decision when doing three-ways, find someone else upline who will. This is important. The upline expert should know that their job on a three-way is to help close the business, not just "chit-chat".

Close the business or get them further information
At this point, you will either be bringing the person into your business, or providing them further information that they need to gather. Many times your prospect needs to see some written information to further validate their decision. If you have done your job, the close takes care of itself. There is no specific question, other than, "Great Joe, how soon do you want to start making money?"

Closing Comments

In order for you to sponsor large numbers of people you must prospect with posture to large numbers of people on a very consistent basis. Do a "self-check" to make sure you are on target. Track the number of calls you are making and the number of people you are presenting your business to on a daily and weekly basis. It's really all a numbers game. However, the better you get at prospecting the easier the numbers become. Don't ever quit. Become an animal recruiting machine. Talk to more people than anyone else around you. Force yourself to make ten more calls when you don't feel like it, and then make ten more. You get good at prospecting by doing it every day and learning from others who are successful at it.

Commitment is the fuel of achievement

2008-01-08T13:18:00.000+11:00

Commitment is the fuel of achievement

We started 2007 with a clear mission: to develop and strengthen e-lottery upon our success over the past 5 years.

To do this we went back to the very core of what we believe in ; that our success is only possible by the successes of others. You see, it is symbiotic - we can only succeed if you succeed. It is a true partnership, a family, and because of this it has always been and will always remain the cornerstone of everything VWD does.

During 2007, we were more committed than ever to invest in the strength of your e-lottery opportunity and in you, our members, because not only do we want to deliver the very best opportunity out there but we also believe that as you have shown your commitment to us it is our moral responsibility to invest in you.

So we increased the size of the staff to deliver a better service and support structure, we invested in new technology and systems, better communications, new marketing initiatives and future opportunities. We did not rest on our laurels and nor did you.

This year was the year of the Affiliate. We saw Affiliates develop six-figure incomes, we saw more and more Affiliates achieve their personal goals, such as new cars, new homes and improved lifestyles for their families.

It is a truly great thing to see people achieve what they thought they could never achieve. All because of an idea: consider that for a moment. A simple idea has changed so many people’s lives...it is the most amazing thing in the world and we both thank you for allowing us this honour.

This is why e-lottery has our commitment and passion now more than ever and why we will continue to develop e-lottery throughout 2008 and beyond.

The success of e-lottery has also made our vision for your VWD businesses more achievable and we became even more resolved to widen your opportunity horizons this year.

The launch of uVme in 2008 will only increase the very size of the e-lottery family as more and more people who had never heard of your e-lottery business will soon discover it.

Our investment and commitment to uVme will be as passionate as it is for e-lottery because it will not only deliver a new opportunity for you but we believe it will be the fuel to launch e-lottery into a new era.

Both of us would like to thank you for your commitment to VWD during 2007 and we would like to invite you to join us on what will be a most incredible and profitable 2008 for you.

Tom Brodie & Len Fitzgerald, Co-Founders, VWD

Is Content still King?

2007-12-12T11:10:00.000+11:00

I know that content was king, but is it still? And if so, does it even matter if that content is any good?

A recent experiment of mine is yielding interesting results.

I recently set up a new blog called "Spam du jour" where I pasted a selection of some of the many many spam emails that I recieve in my inbox daily. On any account, pretty crappy content. The funny thing is, it's that site that gets the most natural search engine traffic... at least 6 times more than any of my other sites where I publish content that should/could/would be considered to be of a reasonable if not high quality.

While I ponder this mystery, I'm happy to take the traffic from people searching for information on the spam that they get. Who knows, it may lead to more traffic to my main site and some Adsense clicks and Amazon commissions along the way.

Are You Core?

2007-12-11T22:38:00.000+11:00

I found this in someone's MySpace blog and thought it worth sharing here.

Are You Core?

By Randy Gage

There are nine key qualities that every great Network Marketer possesses. It's likely that you already practice some or most of them. But to be a leader, and set an example that others can duplicate, you must practice ALL of them.

To live all nine core qualities means you've made and honored a commitment to "Go Core." To develop your business, you must identify and work with the people in your organization who are willing to make this very same commitment. Let's take a look at each one of these core qualities:

Core Quality 1) Use all of the productsTo "Go Core" means that if your company has a product, you would never buy a competing product for any reason ... ever! A "Brand X" product purchase takes money out of your business and puts it into someone else's. A core person never buys "Brand X," regardless of sales, convenience, or for any other reason. It's simply bad business. You must use all of your company's products that apply to you - and be able to talk knowledgeably and enthusiastically about them - to effectively build your business.

Core Quality 2) Develop a consumer group

Your business is driven by the volume produced by sales to the end consumer. A great deal of those sales will be to distributors who "buy from their own store" and use the products themselves. But there are many other people who will benefit from your products or services, but are not interested in building a business at this time. These people will become your consumer group.

It's critical that you develop this consumer group. This is good business, because you:

1. Service the people who aren't distributors, but need your products or service;

2. Earn retail income;

3. Develop consistent income you can count on from regular customers; and

4. Build personal group volume - volume that can keep you qualified to earn other lucrative bonuses and incentives. It's a good goal to develop a base of at least ten retail customers when you are just starting out.

Core Quality 3) Make regular presentations

Like every business, Network Marketing requires consistently taking action steps. One of the most important of these is making regular presentations. Realistically, you need to be making three to five presentations a week when you start your business (working seven to ten hours a week). As your business grows, you will want to increase this number. When you reach what I consider "full time" in this business (about 25 hours a week), you will want to be making five to eight presentations a week. Of course, not all of these presentations will be new prospects that you want to personally sponsor. Many of them will be presentations you are conducting for your people as you train them and build depth.

You must consistently make presentations if you want to grow your business. Don't be misled into thinking you're growing your business with "busy work" (reading manuals, going to seminars, filling out forms, etc.). These things are important, but they are support functions to the real business - which is making regular, successful presentations to prospects.

Core Quality 4) Attend the functions

Functions are the glue that holds your business together. Attending them helps you grow your business, gives you crucial training, and keeps you focused. In your regional area, you will have the chance to attend opportunity showcases, product workshops and rallies. If these are within two to three hours driving distance, you will want to attend. There will be other events, such as conventions and leadership conferences, which are held annually. These are major, often life-changing events, and you'll want to schedule your vacation time around them so you never miss one.

Core Quality 5) Spend daily self-development time

If I've discovered one fundamental truth, it is this: your business will grow only as fast as you grow. You will have to develop new skills as your business progresses. Initially, you will need recruiting and training skills. Later, you will need time management and organizational skills. Ultimately, you will need leadership, communication and empowerment capabilities. In order to develop others, you must first develop yourself.

It's important that you set aside specific time each day for self-development. For most people, this is best done in the morning before your workday starts. You might meditate, exercise, listen to inspirational tapes, or read anything that helps you grow your mind, body and soul. Set aside this time and stick to it.

Invest in audiotapes, books and videos that help your personal development...and make sure half of this is specific to your network marketing business. Keep tapes or CDs in your car to play at every opportunity you have throughout the day. Get a portable CD player and use it when you go walking or cycling.

Don't end your day by watching the late news and then going to sleep. Make sure the last input you receive before going to bed is positive - even if it's just reading one paragraph from an inspirational book.

Many companies or sponsorship lines offer programs that provide positive, inspirational and/or instructional material on a subscription basis. If you're in such a situation, you are quite fortunate, because much of the work of finding and getting good material is already done for you. Sign up right away and make sure your people do, as well.

Core Quality 6) Be teachable

If you want to build your business in the fastest manner possible, you must be teachable and willing to be coached. You will find Network Marketing is quite different from traditional businesses. Things that work great in sales, sometimes do not work well in Network Marketing.
Your sponsorship line has learned the methods, strategies and techniques that work best in your business. They will work with you and teach you everything they know...without charging you a penny. Your sponsor is the repository of all the experience of many generations of distributors - all the way to the company. Learn from them.

Core Quality 7) Practice accountability

Network Marketing is a business of relationships, and relationships operate on trust. To earn and maintain that trust, you must be accountable. You can never tell a lie to your distributors or customers and be accountable. Accountability also means that when you write checks, they're good; when you promise to work with someone, you follow through; and when you commit to attend an event, you're there - on time.

Accountability means that when we have a product display with 24 products, there will still be 24 products at the end of the night. It means never approaching someone else's prospect or attempting to steal distributors from another line.

You create the culture of your organization. If you do it right, it will mean you can hold a function and 800 women can leave their purses on their chairs, come back, and find everything exactly as they left it!

Core Quality 8) Edify the organization

Savvy distributors learn that they must edify their sponsorship line. By "edify," I simply mean to build up. When you point out the success and accomplishments of your sponsors - it makes those sponsors more effective when they come to work with both your prospects and distributors. Many times you will find it difficult to be a prophet in your own hometown. Sometimes your friends and relatives aren't yet ready to accept that powerful, positive concepts can come from you.

By edifying your sponsorship line - then bringing your prospects to them - you'll have support to hold you over until you develop some initial success and credibility. Likewise, your sponsorship line can help you when you're working with your new distributors.

This was a lesson I had to learn the hard way. I was so ego-driven when in my early years in the business, that I would never edify my sponsor. In fact, I did quite the opposite. I used to complain to all my people how weak my sponsor was, hoping I would look strong by comparison. (Of course it did just the opposite, but I couldn't see that.)

In any event, when my sponsor would come to town, do training, or conduct a meeting - none of my people would turn out. So when I needed someone to give me credibility, there was no one to provide that. I never got any of my close friends or family members in the business. I still today believe the reason is because I didn't edify my sponsorship line.

Core Quality 9) Follow the system

Leaders understand that "lone rangers" can be successful initially - but will not enjoy long-term success. For residual income, and walk away security, you must follow a step-by-step duplicatable system, and you yourself must be duplicatable.

This means that everyone in your organization uses the same marketing materials, employs the same training procedures and follows a standardized presentation. This way, the method you use to bring in new people is the same method they use to bring in their new people. You are completely duplicatable. Regardless of someone's previous job experience, their education or confidence level - they can do the business in exactly the same, successful way you did.

Your sponsorship line has learned what works and what doesn't. They have created the system based upon that experience. Follow the system and you have the resources of the entire sponsorship line working for you. If you change the system, you lose the benefits of having all those resources at your disposal. Also, when you change the system, (substituting a different tape, changing the presentation, etc.) you send a message to your people that it's OK to change the system.

Your first-level people change the system a little, so their first-level people change the system a little, and so it goes down through the entire group. After a few levels, there is no system, so you have no security, no potential for walk away, residual income. And that means no "drink out of a coconut money!"

"Go Core!

These nine Core Qualities are what separates network marketing leaders from the people who drop by the wayside and never reach long-term success in the business. Practicing all the core qualities isn't easy - it's not supposed to be. But you must practice them if you're truly interested in building a network where others can achieve the same success as you.

"Going Core" means doing all nine actions, not just the ones you like. It also takes a substantial investment in you. But you will discover that the people who commit to going core reach dramatically higher levels of success than those who don't. As a leader committed to empowering others, you have a responsibility to go core yourself, and create this culture throughout your organization.

2 Steps Forward 1 Back

2007-12-05T12:10:00.000+11:00

That has to be one of the most frustrating parts of any enterprise. We make some progress, then we fall back a little. OK, so over time we're making progress, but imagine how much more progress we would make if we didn't have to suffer the setbacks as well.

How to avoid or minimise them? I don't know.

What am I talking about? Well, it's the age old MLM attrition story. We all know that in MLM, attrition is the thing that they don't tell you about when you sign up. Someone may have personally sponsored 100 or 200 affiliates, but how many of those are still around? 50, 40, less? I know that half of the people I've sponsored gave up after anywhere from 1 week to 1 year after joining. No big deal though, as long as over time, more join than leave, then my income keeps growing.

I should be happy for two to join and one to leave.... I just hate to see the leavers. They've given up on whatever dream they had when they joined... and 10 out of 10 times it's because they did nothing. They had put nobody's name into the prospector, they didn't tell anyone about it, online or offline and when it didn't happen by itself for them, they quit. Their loss, but mine too.

If you're going to join a company, make sure you plan to do something to make it work. Don't expect it to happen on its own, then quit when it doesn't. Work it and reap the rewards, or quit and lose your money.

Fields of Dream Board

by J Wise with Rik Law, Senior Co-ordinator

Rik Law has made many of his dreams come true with e-lottery, and the help of his Dream Board.

Rik had joined the Army after leaving school, until an injury forced him to retrain in IT – a job he hated.

He was on holiday in Thailand when a friend of his got in touch and asked, "Do you trust me?" When Rik answered yes, the friend said, "Then go and sign up with this opportunity." He meant e-lottery.

He said it was not the first time he had been told about e-lottery, but as Brian Wardell points out in this News Bulletin, "No is not always forever."

Rik did not do much with e-lottery at first. He did have a plan for success, but there was no real driving force behind it; no purpose to succeed.

Meanwhile, Rik's sponsor kept sending him emails inviting him to an e-lottery event called 'Project Wildfire'. Rik eventually decided to go... it was a decision that changed his life.

The brainchild of Mark Davies, now VWD's Head of Marketing, Project Wildfire unleashed the re-branding of e-lottery in September of 2005. It was a tremendous event by all accounts, and marked the release of the new e-lottery DVDs, the new website, the new logo, the new theme tune... flying its promotional winners in to the event by helicopter, giving them champagne on stage, and giving the top winner (Jess Miller) a Rolex watch: this was the beginning of thinking big about e-lottery, for Rik Law and many others who were present on the day.

Just like its name, Wildfire set Rik alight and exploded his e-lottery business like a backdraft. One of the greatest tools that Rik took away from that life-changing event was his Dream Board. Despite its impressive name, this is nothing more than a standard pin board on which Rik has put photographs of his dreams – his goals and things he wants to work for – and hung it up above his computer, where he would look at it many times throughout the day.

"When you have a dream, nothing gets in your way," Rik said. "When you don't have a dream, everything gets in your way."

Clearly this is true, because since making his Dream Board, Rik has never looked back. His e-lottery business has grown and developed, and one by one he has achieved each of his dreams on the board: the car he wanted is now his (and has been replaced on the board with his NEXT dream car); the new kitchen; the home cinema system; the new settee... and 150 football fields' worth of land in Thailand on which to build his new home!

How did Rik turn his dreams into reality? He used simple methods such as sending out the DVD to people. "The DVD never makes a mistake, it always says the right thing, and it never gets tired of saying it." Rik said, "I just let the DVD explain the business for me, and then I ring people up and ask if they watched it."

Rik has also used methods in the past such as printing up testimonials in a newspaper format (just one page, folded) with his guest site on the back, and leaving them on commuter trains for people to pick up and read on their way to work.

"If I left 500 copies on the train, I would usually get a result of about 5 people," he explained.

To hear Rik speak about his story himself, watch out for the October Leaders' Broadcast on e-lottery TV, out soon!

Size Doesn't Matter

by Paul Veverka, Group Co-ordinator

People often say to me, "but I've only got a small e-lottery group at the moment!" My response to them is that their e-lottery business has to start somewhere. All businesses start out small and grow. I use this story as a motivational example of what's possible...

Some years ago, a young entrepreneur called Marcus Samuel set up a small shop in the East end of London. He spotted a growing craze for seashells, partly for decoration and partly for natural history enthusiasts. He set about specialising in this market.

After a while, and being an enterprising type of chap, he soon realised he could make more money from actually shipping the shells in from the Far East and selling them to other shops. The Marcus Samuel Shipping and Trading Company was born.

On a business trip there, his son spotted that there was also an abundance of oil which they could ship back to England at the same time in barrels and chartered a boat, adding a special compartment for the oil. The year was 1890 and the company soon changed its name, in recognition of its main cargo, to the "Shell Transport & Trading Company". As the demand for oil for new vehicles and gas lighting took off at the turn of the last century, the managing director ushered in the 1900s by changing the name of the company again to "Shell Oil". Shell is today the largest retailer in the world!

So you see, anything is possible with a little bit of effort!

Can we talk?

2007-10-23T10:35:00.000+10:00

So, you've joined a network marketing company to make some extra money. Great.

You're not completely comfortable with the idea of selling it to your family and friends. That's understandable.

How do you plan to promote your new-found opportunity to others? If you have lots of cash to spend or don't mind going into debt, you can spend money on advertising, or on buying leads. That's not a bad option - but, you're in this to make money, not spend it - right?

Here's why you should swallow your fear of talking to people about your opportunity - It is the cheapest and most effective way to recruit!

Is your fear greater than your desire? Only you can answer that question. You may have valid reasons for your fear. You've been in other MLMs before and you're worried that your family and friends will think that you've gone crazy for joining another one. In your mind, you're thinking "I know I said this before about the other one, but THIS is the one!"

The only way to break free from this fear is to bite the bullet and make that list of 200 contacts and start the process of calling them or writing to them. Build that list and keep working it. It's the key to your prosperity. Teach your downline to do the same - you will make more money and so will they. If they are making money, they won't quit on you. They'll turn into recruiters and in turn make you even more money. You'll get better at it with practice too, so your conversion rate will improve over time.

Don't believe the hype that "The product sells itself".... If that was the case, why would the company have invested in the marketing plan? Why would they need you to promote their products?

In MLM we get paid on results. Ask yourself, how can I get results with the resources I have at hand? Your list of prospects is your most valuable resource - and it's free.

Your job in MLM is not to sell products or a business opportunity. It is to generate an ever growing list of prospects who might one day be interested in your offer. That's it. Build that list and communicate your offer to them. Some will join you, some won't join you - whatever... As long as you keep growing your list, you will grow your business and your cheque.

Make your list and talk to people - Go for it!

Great viral adsense site

2007-10-19T10:05:00.000+10:00

This simple little game must qualify as one of the best viral Adsense sites I've seen.

It's not one of those crappy sites that's just a page of ads surrounding some unintelligible garbage designed to be a hit with search engines. It's a fun little game/time-waster where you throw paper into an office bin.

It has a Google PR of 5 and an Alexa rating in the top 300,000. Pretty good for a page with a simple game and a few ads.

How to Build An Empire With Business Cards by Robert Short

2007-08-17T11:06:00.000+10:00

I found this pasted in a forum and thought it would be worthwhile to put here. Great advice for anyone really...

How to Build An Empire With Business Cards by Robert Short

Most business owners don't realize the importance of using a simple business card to generate tons of customers. It simply does not matter what kind of business you are in, you have to utilize this primitive business technique in order to grow your business fast. The three main mistakes people make when marketing with business cards are:

Not having a business card.
Being stingy and only giving out one card per person.
Not giving a card to every person they come into contact with.
Not having thousands of business cards at your disposal at all times is not only stupid it is a crime against your business. If an employee of yours stole as much money from you as you lose from not utilizing business cards, they would go to prison for a long time. With today's super low cost business card printing prices there is no reason not to have business cards and an abundance of them for that matter.

I started my professional concrete cutting service business with absolutely no capital and grossed almost $400,000 in my first eight months of business. My only means of advertising was business cards. As many of you already know, it can sometimes take up to an entire year to get your ad placed into your local yellow page directory and it can be quite costly to a new business. The following are techniques that I used to generate tons of business from business cards and I believe that these same techniques can benefit any type of business.

I started with an eye catching logo and had a design that really said "this guy is a pro." It is worth the modest initial investment to get your cards designed right.
I kept my message "short and sweet." I have seen way too many people over do it with tons of bulleted text that cause confusion with the reader. I do concrete cutting and a few other services that relate to it but my business cards say only "Concrete Cutting."
I ordered my cards in quantities of 5000 at a time. Too often do I see new business owners print cards off of their computer and literally "ration" them off.
I never gave out a single card! I always handed out at least five at a time and sometimes more. I still look at my business cards as "lottery tickets." The first job I get from the batch pays for all of them so the rest can pay off huge. If they get thrown in the trash - Who cares? There are thousands more where those came from.
Any time I would meet someone in the construction trades I would hand them a stack of cards. I hand them to people that are standing next to me in line at the Home Depot or that are pumping gas across from me at the fuel pumps. I get questions like "What are these for?" or "What do you want me to do with these?" and I just simply say "You may not need my services now but when you do, you'll know who to call." At the same time I am thinking "I don't care what you do with them, they were basically free and the fact of the matter is that I get hundreds of calls from people that say "Remember Me?" "I met you at the Exxon Station or at parent teacher's night." Or "John Smith gave me your card and said I should call you" yet I have never heard of John Smith. Or "I've got your business card on my desk and I don't know where it came from but I need your services." I simply hand tons of my business cards out to people and the calls roll in.
I buy a mailing list of contractors from a list broker and I simply put three business cards in an envelope and mail a thousand envelopes at a time. I do not put an expensive brochure or a flyer, I simply put three business cards in and I get hundreds of calls and referrals from the mailing,

I now get hundreds and hundreds of calls from my existing customers and my yellow page ads but I still use business cards more than I ever have. I now have five trucks and seven employees and giving out business cards in the same fashion as I have described above is part of their job description. They have all seen the power of business cards and that business cards ensure each of our survival and actually gives them a good feeling knowing that they got a specific customer. If I contact a new customer and they happen to mention that one of my men did not give them a stack of business cards then I immediately contact the employee, ask them if it is true and explain to them that it is part of their job, then I hand them a big box of business cards and tell them not to let it happen again, ever.

And you think you can't?

Is working at home right for you?

2007-07-27T12:17:00.000+10:00

If you have a job, especially an office job, the lure of working at home can be very appealing. There's no boss looking over your shoulder, less interruptions, no office politics, no commute and no need to buy lots of expensive clothes.

But in the spirit of universal equilibrium, working at home also has a downside. It's easy to become isolated, lacking direction, distracted by your private life and activities.

In my experience, whether it suits you comes down the a few things. Your personality type and ability to work without direction. You need to be resourceful enough to find solutions or have a network of colleagues - either back in the office or other telecommuters - to bounce ideas off and seek advice from - just like you would have in the office.

Self discipline and independence are key.

There are a myriad of benefits that come from working at home. Just don't approach it with rose-coloured glasses, ignoring the traps for the unwary - until it's too late. Go into it with a well thought out plan and make sure you stick to it.

There is an interesting discussion going on at Management Line about this.

Working a home business and working your job from home aren't all that different in many ways. If you can succeed at one, you can succeed at the other. If there are any telecommuters out there who think they might like to add an hour or so to their day, I'd also recommend starting your own home business. You never know, it may lead to the real freedom you crave and only partially satisfy by working a job at home.

Here's the one I do if you'd like to check it out.

Blog of Note: Unit Structures explores social networking

This post in one of the Blogger "Blogs of Note" is an interesting article on the social makeup of some social networking sites - namely MySpace and Facebook and discusses the transition costs for people to move their networking activities from one site to another.

It's also given me an idea to do some research of my own on just how many different social networking sites actually exist and to find out a little more about them and the phenomenon of social networking online itself.

Social Networking Trends

2007-06-27T20:34:00.000+10:00

Article from WebPro News:

The world of social networking is changing, but don't worry, it's not permanent. It's more of a tide than anything that reaches and recedes from all things. MySpace is changing, Facebook is catching, and Friendster is resurrected.

Editor's Note: In the beginning, many criticized that a network built on teenage verve was sure to fail. So far, they've been wrong. But other networks are catching up quickly, and the MySpace demographic has changed, nearly reversed. Have an idea about what this means for the future of social networking? Let us know in the comments section.

Like Internet dating in its infancy, social networks have graduated from something for the kids (with dating, it was the geeks) to a normalized part of society. Critics had similar concerns about Rock N Roll in its day, and short skirts, and tie-dye, and jazz and dancing.

Most likely there was a time when daily hygiene was tantamount to snobbery. Things change with acceptance. MySpace exchanged one stigma for another, immediately branded a site for teenyboppers, and then the fishing hole to catch a predator.

Despite that, and despite the concern that such a youthful audience replete with perverts would fizzle out over time, the site has continued to grow, even to the point that the majority of the 109.5 million visitors to MySpace users are now over 35, both according to comScore.

Of course, you know what happens when the grownups raid your secret hangout, right? The He-Man Womun-Haterz Club can't thrive in a cloud of perfume, the mice can't play with the cat aroundchoose whichever cliché you wish.

You might note also though that Rupert Murdoch is rumored to be looking for a way out, if he can exchange MySpace for a nice chunk of Yahoo.

Anyone not signing up for MySpace these days (really, is there anybody?) are defecting to Facebook, Friendster, and Bebo. It's not really defecting as much as it is double dipping, though. Over half of social network users maintain multiple profiles, flitting from network to network the way they would rooms at a party.

In the past six months, after Facebook opened up to non-collegiates and developers, the site has more than doubled in number of unique visitors, growing from 23 million users in December 2006 to 47 million in May 2007. During the same period, Bebo jumped from just under 11 million visitors to 17 million.

But the most explosive recent growth has been, surprisingly, from Friendster, a company that just so happens was awarded a US patent on social networking, signifying how long they've been in this game. The site has steadily grown since December from 18.7 million visitors to 24.8 million.

While that's less than the others in terms of visitors, the site, and VentureBeat, point to the page views, spiking by 40 percent just last month to 9 billion. The company attributes the sudden spike to "fixing" the technology that stymied its growth in 2004, just as the meteoric rise of MySpace was to occur.

Friendster's graph server, which made it impossible to manage four quadrillion factors (we're assuming Venture Beat is using not using that number as hyperbole), has been revamped to more easily show how users are linked to their friends, and by what degree of separation, similar to a feature used on LinkedIn. But the main result of this revamp is that users are better able to track what's going on with their friends, thus increasing page views per user.

While that may seem like cheating, it's growth nonetheless, and of the others in the top seven networks HI5, Tagged, and Piczo Friendster is the only one not stagnant or declining over the past half-year.

So what happens next? Who knows for sure? It seems Murdoch is thinking of jumping ship, perhaps just for a better opportunity, or it could be he detects the changing tide. Maybe Facebook is catching up too fast. Maybe Friendster is poised to sue the whole lot of them.

Or maybe it's just the natural, social flux of things.

Michael's Traffic Videos

2007-06-07T12:14:00.000+10:00

Michael Cheney Talks Traffic - Interview With A Traffic Expert

Michael Cheney, one of the most-respected names in Internet marketing, has been online since 1995 and is the man behind the 6-Figure launches of AdSense Videos and 11 Days To List Profits. He has unveiled a new videos product - "Michael's Traffic Videos" which covers everything to do with traffic and comes with 100,000 instant ad credits and a tailored Fast-Track To Traffic Action Plan.

We managed to grab some time with him recently and quiz him on his favorite topic - traffic.

You'll get a lot out of this interview including a killer 40-page E-book on traffic that Michael has written to help you avoid the Top 20 Traffic Disasters!

So let's get started.

Q. Firstly Michael, thank you for joining us today in your busy schedule.

A. Hey no problem. Good to be here.

Q. We all know that traffic is important but could you just explain a bit about traffic for the beginners out there?

A. Sure. Traffic is the lifeblood of any business online. Without it you just die. We all know that. But what a lot of us don't realize is that just like everything else on the Internet traffic changes very quickly. That is, the methods of getting traffic are changing all the time and that's where people get caught out.

Q. What do you mean by "caught out"?

A. Well people fall into the trap of thinking that just because they know one or two traffic generation methods that they are some sort of traffic master. In reality just because you know how to start a pay per click campaign or a little bit about search engines doesn't make you anywhere near a traffic expert. I'm trying to spread the word that there is a massive array of traffic tactics that most people aren't even aware of, let alone using or mastering.

Q. Can you give us some examples?

A. Sure. Offline for example. You might immediately think that getting traffic is a purely online activity but the truth of the matter is that there are lots of things you can be doing offline to get people into your website. And it's usually these sorts of areas that are being under-utilized and therefore there is less competition for that traffic as well.

Q. So by offline you mean advertising offline?

A. Not necessarily. That is one method, yes, but I'm thinking of more creative ways to get people into your website. It all comes down to the fact that having asked people on my list it came as no surprise that most people want to know about free rather than paid traffic sources. I've had to become an expert in free ways of getting traffic in my time online.

Q. What do you mean - I thought you were running a successful online business with lots of cash flow?

A. I am. But it's not always been this way. When I first started out in 1995 I had nothing. No money to play with. Just my own initiative and imagination.

Q. So are you saying you're against paying for traffic online?

A. No. No I'm not saying that at all. What I'm saying is that, especially when you first start out, you always want to focus on the free methods. You get the traffic in for free, make some sales and then you can reinvest some of that money into paid methods of getting traffic. This speeds up the process.

Q. So what particular offline methods are you referring to - can you give us some examples?

A. There's one tactic I used that costs nothing to implement, is relatively quick and ended up getting me thousands and thousands of targeted visitors into my websites. When I've shared this tactic with other marketers at seminars they've started laughing and slapping their foreheads when they saw how easy it was. They were also embarrassed that they had failed to use this tactic. It was quite amusing.

Q. So are you going to tell us what this method is?

A. No! (laughs) It's in my course! I truly believe in rewarding those people that are most eager to learn so instead of giving away all my traffic tactics in interviews like this I've put some of them in an E-Book I've written. It is free though if people want to get it.

Q. So how can people get hold of it?

A. It's called "How To Avoid The Top 20 Traffic Disasters" and you can get it by going to Michael's Traffic Videos - you'll see it mentioned on that page.

Q. What's in it?

A. Well I really wanted to raise the bar on a free E-Book so I spent a lot of time creating it. It's 40 pages long and stuffed with juicy content on what NOT to do when it comes to traffic. As far as I'm concerned too many people out there tell you what you should do but not what you shouldn't do. That's where this E-Book comes in.

Q. Okay. I think we're about done is there anything else you want to tell everyone?

A. Just that if they are serious about getting more traffic into their website they need to goto Michael's Traffic Videos and get that free E-Book.

A. My pleasure. Speak soon.

Follow Up = Fortune

2007-05-24T09:48:00.000+10:00

Here is a survey from The National Sales Executive Association in the USA.

Sales Survey (Cumulative)

2% of sales are made on the 1st contact - 2%
3% of sales are made on the 2nd contact - 5%
5% of sales are made on the 3rd contact - 10%
10% of sales are made on the 4th contact - 20%
80% of sales are made on the 5th - 12th contact 100%

What this tells us is that "Follow up = fortune". What if you gave up on a prospect after 6 approaches? What if you spoke to them just one or two more times? You see that a full 80% of sales are made on the 5th to the 12th contact. Perseverence is the key to winning more sales.

Marketing online, an autoresponder can take care of most of these contacts for you, but to gain the most benefit, some personal contact I believe is worth 10 times more than automated contact.

Build A Sales Machine

2007-05-22T16:57:00.000+10:00

I like to bring my readers (whoever you may be) some value for checking back here occaisionally. Today, I will refer you to this excellent blog, Build A Sales Machine authored by Aaron Ross.

I discovered it listed in "Blogs of Note" in Blogger and found it fascinating reading. As someone who wants to improve their technical knowledge of the sales process, I'm sure I'll be back to read more - add it to my reading list.

It's full of detailed information and it's amazing that it's freely available when so many mediocre books and ebooks on the subject cost a small fortune.

Highly recommended.

Everything grows where attention goes

2007-05-20T18:39:00.000+10:00

I just noticed that it's been 10 days since I made a blog entry in this blog. My original intention was record my marketing efforts - I'd say a 20 day gap is pretty indiciative of my marketing efforts lately.

I've been so busy offline that I haven't had the time to spend online, marketing - hence, slower growth!

I will now do at least 1 hour of marketing a day.

Like MySpace - only for Business

Are you a member of Bizpreneur yet?

It's like MySpace - it looks like it and functions the same way, only it's specifically set up for business networking.

The other members are all there to network with other business minded people and it's growing all the time.

So, if you like MySpace, you'll love Bizpreneur too. You can even get paid from your Adsense or Adbrite clicks from your profile, unlike MySpace, where the ad payments go to the company.

Digg Traffic

2007-05-01T13:26:00.000+10:00

Traffic - It's what all website owners crave. There are literally thousands of ways to promote a website and get visitors to come. Some of them are hard and laborious, some are free, cheap or cost a fortune.

Here's one of the free options.

Join Digg.com and submit your site to the appropriate category. The Digg members vote on the sites that are submitted and the popular ones get more exposure. If your site has good content, it's likely to get votes. If your site doesn't capture the Digg community's imagination, you still get the traffic of all the people who look, whether they vote for your site or not.

Don't give up if you don't get many votes for your site. Use it as a learning exercise. Use it to help you figure out what kinds of sites in your niche do get votes - and therefore more traffic by copying what the popular sites are doing - don't steal their content, but do "borrow" what they have that appeals.

How to Make Money with Blogs

2007-04-28T15:43:00.000+10:00

Making a blog is the easiest way to create your own website, especially here on Blogger.

It's already hosted, there are plenty of templates to use and it's as easy as clicking and typing.

You can use your blog for pretty much anything. You can show off your arts and crafts, your pets, have a travel diary, or even use it as another way to build your business.

Did you know you can also easily make money directly from your blog? Find out how here..

MySpace - Social Networking

2007-04-28T14:23:00.000+10:00

Having created my MySpace profile back in January, I finally got around to finishing setting it up this week.

I hope to use it to connect with like-minded people around the world to help each other with our endeavours as well as hopefully attract some more people to join me in VWD e-Lottery and e-Play when it launches.

MySpace is the biggest thing in town as far as social networking goes. It's not set up specifically for business networking, and as long as you don't spam people or be too blatant, you will be well recieved by the locals.

Once in MySpace, you can load pictures, videos, write blogs, invite friends - do all sorts of things. Yes, you'll get the odd person asking you if you want to view their strip-tease on their webcam, so you can decide if you want to do that or not. I'm not judging!

Some of the people you can connect with there are just amazing... Have you heard of Anthony Robbins, Sir Richard Branson, Warren Buffett, Jack Canfield, Robert Kiyosaki? Have a look at my profile and see my friends.

Have fun, but don't get too distracted while you're there. Remember it's just one more thing to do. Don't let it be the only thing you do to promote your business or you won't get far at all.

Where's the growth?

2007-04-25T10:32:00.000+10:00

As marketers, we want to be active in the areas of the internet that are growing. Currently, the areas that are achieving the most growth are social networking and online games.

Social networking sites like MySpace have doubled their membership and traffic over the last year. MySpace now has over 170,000,000 registered members... and it's not the best one out there. It just goes to show the power of word of mouth promotion and giving people what they want.

People online today don't just want to do research on products they want to buy and do their banking. They want to connect. They want to connect with their friends and family, and they want to connect with people they don't know yet, but with whom they have something in common. Be it people that went to the same school as them, people who work in their field, other people with the same health problems as them, other people with interests in pretty much anything you can think of. Can you see the potential here for network marketing? Build a large network of friends on these sites and you can imagine how many will see your offers and get to know you. As you probably already realise, it's those relationships, those people who know and trust you that will join your businesses.

The other huge growth area is interactive entertainment - which means, games. Millions of people around the word of all ages spend countless hours online playing games. They love it. There are hundreds, if not thousands of sites out there offering free and paid games for people to play. Imagine combining these two huge growth areas in one site.

That's what's about to happen with Virtual World Direct's new "Project e-Play".

Combined with the highly viral success of VWD's current e-Lottery product, the addition of social networking and online games will make VWD the company to be a part of if you want to make the most of your online marketing experience.

People who join VWD now will be able to grow their network virally and exponentially to produce massive incomes in these growth areas that are at the forefront of the internet zeitgeist.

Join here now, and start to build your network to be ready for when this new Juggernaut launches. When you join, I will help you get your head around what's going on and what you need to do (with my help) to position yourself for the ride of your life.

It's exciting. It's going to see millionaires created.... will you and I be amongst them?

Google Analytics

2007-04-21T10:06:00.000+10:00

If you have a website, especially for business - you'll probably want to know where your visitors come from, both the source of their visit and geographically. If they found your site via a search engine, you'll want to know the search terms they are using to find you so you can tweak your site to take advantage of popular keywords and keyphrases to enhance the effectiveness your organic search results and your pay-per-click campaigns.

You can track your marketing campaigns and compare organic vs PPC search results.

Best of all, it's a free service that isn't too hard to get your head around. If you've put a webpage together, even a blog, you can do this.

To Safelist or not to safelist? That is the question

2007-04-08T15:56:00.000+10:00

Ah Safelists!

They promise so much but seem to deliver so little - or nothing even.

I've tried a few safelists, Herculist, Mad Vlad, Mega Safelist, and a few others that I can't remember. I've diligently set up my email inboxes to collect the thousands of emails that flood in, never to be read, thinking - "If I'm doing this, isn't everybody else doing it too?"

I wonder how many of the emails are actually read, let alone acted on.

I suspect very few. I checked the hit counter on my website after sending out ads to safelists and didn't see any discernable improvement in my traffic. I did this many times, just to make sure. I eventually came to the conclusion that it wasn't worth my time mucking around with safelists, especially free ones. You might get a better result if you pay to be able to send the emails to the people's main email address, but I doubt it.

There are people who claim to do really well with safelists. I don't know if this is true. I am yet to see any evidence. If you yourself have had success with safelists, please post a comment and let me know.

Until then, I'll remain a skeptic.

Readers are Leaders

2007-04-03T18:45:00.000+10:00

It's worth noting that the leaders of large MLM businesses spend a lot of their time year after year, learning their craft.

It's no accident that they are at the top.

It's the same in all professions. The ones who invest the most in learning about how to do it properly are the ones who end up being the most successful and the ones who make the most money. Simple really.

Find out if your company recommends any particular books or authors. Speak to your upline to find out their favourite books that have helped them grow their businesses. Head over to Amazon.com and browse the MLM section.

My initial suggestions are:

The World's Simplest High Paying Opportunity

2007-04-03T13:36:00.000+10:00

P R E S E N T I N G
Virtual World Direct E-Lottery

After spending money buying lotto tickets for years and hardly ever winning anything, I found a way to play for free with a huge advantage.

I joined two e-Lottery syndicates playing the UK Lotto and EuroMillions. Two of the biggest tax-free lotteries in the world. I'm guaranteed winning numbers in every game, I play for free and I earn a handsome commission every four weeks for introducing new members who also want to play for free and increase their chances of winning more money - more often.

I joined VWD's e-Lottery immediately when I first heard about it via an email I recieved one day in February 2006.

The email promised an easy way to make a good income in MLM - referring people to play the UK Lotto and EuroMillions as members of e-Lottery syndicates, and finding new affiliates who like me, wanted to play the lottery for free, keep all their winnings and earn a residual income for life.

This is the only business I have been involved in where I have made money. I've tried other MLMs before, but found out the hard way that they can be a complicated and time-consuming way to make a living. With e-Lottery, I don't have to worry about PV or BV or any other V.. It's so simple. I tell people about it, they check it out for themselves at my website or watch the DVD and choose for themselves if they want to join.... and with over half the population being regular lotto players, many do join.

I've won cash prizes over 40 times and get paid my commissions every four weeks like clockwork. I wish I found out about this years ago.

Intro To Your Income Stream #1...
The e-Lottery Syndicate© Multi-Win System

VWD offers an amazing lotto player opportunity, the e-Lottery Syndicate Multi-Win System, in a completely online environment, that is so breathtakingly unique, and such a genuine benefit to ANY lotto player worldwide, that memberships sell almost as fast as a colourful pile of 1 cent gumdrops in front of a stadium crowd of drooling toddlers, with pockets full of pennies...

Why is it so hot to play the lotto this way? Three main reasons...

1. Costs way less per lotto entry than when purchasing your own lotto tickets - 86% - 94% less by playing the e-Lottery Syndicate© Multi-Win System.

2. Wins far more cash prizes than when playing on your own - 702% and 3600% better mathematical odds.

3. Simplifies the lotto experience tremendously using high tech, online convenience.

Plus, much, much more (but we'll get to that)...

Intro To Your Income Stream #2...

VWDs' Highly Viral, 7 Levels Deep Rewards Programme...

Earn direct and indirect commission profits as your referral networking tree grows exponentially, from seed to forest. Run a powerful online home business, as you want, when you want, that proves again and again to profit very handsomely.

It can even substitute a "normal" income within just a few months time, with a part-time effort!

Roars ahead in an almost automatic viral contagion, bringing you more and more residual monthly income in time. Your downline members are deeply inspired on their own to constantly bring in new sales, because the genius of this system is, "refer just 5 lotto players and you play for free".

Your down line members certainly want to play the lotto for free.

Your profit RESULT... they find 5 friends, and they find 5 friends, and so on, and so on... Until, serious exponential profit benefits flow your way, without you hardly lifting a finger.

My Business Goals For Virtual World Direct E-Lottery
I now earn enough money from VWD to pay my rent and help out with some other bills. I achieved this by following the training that VWD provide all affiliates and from the active support of my upline. That's one of the best things about this business. You are never alone. I help anyone in my team who wants it, just as my upline mentor helped me when I asked for it.

With this business, I am doubling my income every 12 weeks at the moment! After just two years, I will achieve my mid-term goal of $5,000 a month and in 4 years, my long-term goal of $10,000 a month.

I set myself targets for the key elements of my business - number of contacts per week, number of new players per week, number of new affiliates per week, etc.

All this is going to get even easier after May 2007, when our exciting new online games are launched. VWD is breaking into the boom industry of online games. You will be able to play games for free and to win cash prizes. Online games are the big thing right now and it's so exciting to be in at the start with a company that has all the startup problems sorted out long ago.

My Business Strategy for Virtual World Direct E-Lottery
VWD e-Lottery Affiliates have access to a highly active affiliate's online forum where we share our ideas and successes as well as running advertising co-ops so that members can access large ad campaigns for a fraction of the cost of doing it themselves.

New affiliates who show that they are serious can look forward to getting some practical help with getting new members of their own to kick start their business.

Do you Skype?

2007-04-01T02:08:00.000+10:00

In online marketing, national borders mean little. We conduct business with people in almost every country in the world.

Sometimes, we need to talk to each other... sometimes email just doesn't cut it when you're trying to help someone, show someone something, or just for a friendly catch up.

Phone calls can be expensive, and even if each call is cheap by itself, they quickly add up.

With Skype, you can call other Skype users for free or you can use Skype to make very cheap calls to anyone on any phone anywhere in the world.

You just need a PC, a microphone and some headphones or speakers.... headphones are recommended though.

How to Create a Website - Free Tutorial for Beginners

2007-03-29T18:07:00.000+10:00

If you are new to internet marketing, no doubt you need some help getting set up. Even if you've been around a while, you may need some advice to help you with the basics of making your own website.

Many of us are given affiliate websites by our companies to help us market our products and find new affiliates and distributors. These are great, but there's not a lot you can do to make your site stand out from the crowd. You can't get natural search engine results with these company sites and often it's even hard with PPC marketing if you don't have your own site with your own domain name.

This free site below gives you a good introduction on how to set up your own website and provides some good resources to help make your marketing life easier.

I highly recommend it.

Free Viral Advertising

2007-03-12T15:43:00.000+11:00

If you're new to internet marketing and don't understand what viral advertising is, let me explain it in simple terms.

Viral advertising is advertising that takes on a life of it's own. An example of this is something we're all familiar with, email jokes. Say someone sends you a good joke in an email, you have a laugh and want to share it with your friends, so you send it to all your friends. They all have a laugh and send it to their friends... and so on. Now, that joke has been virally spread around the internet. From the initial email that one person sent to you, it grew to 10 emails that you sent out, then it went out to another 100 people with your 10 friends sharing it with their 10 friends, then 1,000... you get the picture.

What's on offer here is a free viral advertising system that spreads your offers around the net in the same way. If you click on this link, view the 6 sites listed, enter the validation codes and that's it... just sign up and send your link out or advertise it in the usual ways. Then sit back and watch as your network of adverising sites grows exponentially beneath you, eventually having your ad appear on 1, then 10, then 100, then 1,000 sites and on and on. It won't happen overnight, but over time, it's another rod in the pond so to speak.... and for free.

Give it a go and reap the rewards.

FREE VIRAL

Send me One Million FREE Guaranteed Visitors

Another example of viral advertising is the "Grab-a-Grand" page on my VWD site. People enter the free competition to win £1,000 and after they place their entry, they are invited to give their friends a chance to win too. This effectively gives them more entries for themselves as well as for their friends and gives me a viral advertising opportunity, ensuring that my site is seen by even more people than would have been possible through my own marketing efforts. Check it out for yourself to see how it works.... and good luck! You never know, you might win :)

GRAB A GRAND

Just a little bit more....

2007-03-07T15:12:00.000+11:00

Q: What makes the difference between good and great?
A: Not much!

Surprising isn't it? It's true though. I learnt about this years ago in a training course I did at IBM. They called it the 2 degree shift. It demonstrates that making tiny changes can, over time have a big impact. This principle can be applied to anything we do. Say you wanted to save a specific amount of money by the time you retire in 20 years. Just adding 1% to the amount you currently put away, will over those 20 years mean many thousands of dollars extra in your retirement savings. What's 1%? Not much!

What difference would a little more effort make to your marketing efforts? What if you spent the extra 30 minutes to complete the tasks you set for yourself, placed those extra ads in the classifieds, sent just one more email or prospecting letter this week? It could make all the difference if the right person responds.

Google Flyover - Getting your ad on Google Earth

2007-01-27T10:46:00.000+11:00

Here's an interesting article about a recent flyover by an aerial protography unit to take some hi-res images of Sydney for Google Earth updates coming over the next few months.

All sorts of people with a message to get out planned for it by making big signs, carving out their URL on Bondi Beach or spelling out words with people lying on the beach. There were small business owners who wanted some more exposure, the Austraian Tourism Commission even got into the act. Local politicians and community groups also tried to get their sign or message immortalised on Google Earth until the next update at least.

The hope being that when someone zooms in on a particular spot, Bondi Beach for example, they'll see the sign and check out the website out of curiosity.

I don't know if this is the first time Google made it known that they would be photographing a particular place at a particular time, but maybe it's a sign of things to come.

If you get wind of them doing this in your city, will you get down to the local park or beach and make your own Google Earth billboard?

Read the story below for some pictures and more info.

How's your image?

2007-01-22T13:53:00.000+11:00

First impressions count for a lot. When we meet someone (online or in person), it's that first impression that dictates our reaction to them and our feelings towards them - and vice versa!

You might be a smart, innovative and professional business person, but if the impression you give to people when you meet them is something other than that, you are probably doing yourself a disservice. This applies to the clothes you wear, whether or not you smell or have cleaned your teeth today. Imagine coming across as sloppy to someone you were trying to introduce to a business opportunity, or someone you would like to have as a client or customer.

It's like that with written communication too.

So many times a day, I see emails and other messages from people who I know are smart and professional business people. I only know this because I have been in their circle of associates for a while and have come to know them over time. The problem is, their written communication is hard to follow. Sentences aren't broken up with punctuation, words are spelt incorrectly, whole emails are written in the one paragraph.

Most email programs and word processors have a spell checker. If you know that you are not the World Spelling Bee Champion or the Universe's Greatest Grammarian, why not write all your messages in MS Word or some other word processor and run the spell checker and grammar checker over your message before sending it out? I can't tell you how many times this has saved me from sending out something that made so sense at all.

On the internet, it's often our writing that creates the first impression. Use the tools you already have on your computer to make it as favourable as possible.

By the way, I just ran the Blogger spell checker on this post and fixed four spelling errors before publishing. Four words that would have made me look a complete fool, given the subject of this post.

It's a small world

2007-01-17T13:14:00.000+11:00

How technology has changed doing business and communicating over the last few years. This must be the most amazing time in human history. Having said that, I imagine that anyone reading this in 10 years time would have a chuckle at that statement for it's naivety.

Never before, have we been able to interact with virtually anyone, anywhere at any time, from anywhere on the planet (and in the case of astronauts, those near the planet).

Now you can have your own local phone number in another country. This is an amazing innovation for internet marketers. I live in Australia, but most of my customers and prospects live in the UK. Now, I can have a UK phone number with voicemail, for free. I can pick up my messages over the internet and call the people back, either for free or cheap, via Skype, or a VoIP service. Making business calls around the world now costs no more than it used to cost to only make local and long distance calls in your own country. It's also good if you want to advertise a phone number, but don't want people calling your home phone at all hours.

Sipgate offers a fantastic service.

You get worldwide free calls to other Sipgate users, very cheap calls to landline and mobile phones, a free UK telephone number, free voicemail (with SMS notification option), it's useable with or without a computer, there are no setup fees or contracts. The whole thing is free. They make their money by selling value added services and VoIP accessories, like phones etc, but the free service is more than enough for most of us.

K7 offers a similar free service with a USA phone number, including vanity numbers.

I'm blown away by the possibilities with this. This has to be one of the best tech solutions available for internet marketers.

What's in a name?

If you are involved in any field where you are likely to become well-known, you really should get your name as a URL. I believe you should own your name as .com, .net, .info, .ws and whatever country domain for your own country and any country where you have a high profile, online or offline, eg yourname.com.au or yourname.co.uk, etc. Doing this can get expensive, but it's important, so it's worth it.

There are quite a few reasons for this and I'll go through each of them individually.

First and foremost, you should get it now, before someone else does. Not many names are unique, and chances are, you are not the only John Smith in the world. To get yourname.com you only need to be the first to register it. Anyone can register any name, so before someone else takes your name, it may as well be you who registers it first. By the way, you don't need to be called John Smith to register johnsmith.com.

You need to protect your reputation and your image. Imagine the fun some people could have had if someone hadn't organised to register georgewbush.com way back in May 1997. If you own your own name, other people can't hijack the message that you want to get out as easily. Some people take this to another level and register things like yournameisamoron.com or yournamesux.com, just in case someone else takes a disliking to them and registers it to put out something they wouldn't want people to see if they were searching for information about them.

Branding is the other reason you should register your own name. If you have a public profile, people will search for information about you. A logical place to go for this is yourname.com. Most people with a public profile have their name registered. A case in point is Casey Donovan, the winner of Australian Idol a couple of years ago. Due to a stupid bungle by her management, nobody thought to check who else had already registered the name. As it turned out, Casey Donovan is also the name of a porn star and when the Australian Idol fans went to where they thought they'd find her site, you can guess what they found. This was very embarrassing for all concerned and I'm sure there would have been a lot of upset parents of children who unintentionally went to the wrong site.

I use GoDaddy.com for my domain name registrations (except .ws) because they seem to be the cheapest around. Also, for .ws domains, click here to go to GDI. Take a look at the business opportunity while you're there.

It grows and grows

One of the best things about MLM is that once you figure out or are shown how to grow your business, your cheque gets bigger every month.

I don't know of many regular professions where you can get a pay rise every time you get paid.

We often use money as a measure of success. It is, but it's really just a tool that we use to have and do the things we want. Whether it is to pay the rent and bills, buy your first home or upgrade to a better place that suits your needs better or maybe to buy your first second hand car, or your dream wheels, to give to charity or to pay off your loved-one's debts. The more money we have, the more options we have.

That's why MLM is such a phenomenal development in human history. For the first time in history, ordinary people from every walk of life have the opportunity to grow large businesses with out the usually prohibitive start up costs. Many companies charge under $100 to be in business. Compare that to how much you would need to spend to start a traditional business.

For less than $100 plus some training and work, we can, and do make more and more money every month.

My company only costs £4.99 a year to be in business, yet I'm paid many times that amount every month, mostly for work I did months ago. It just keeps on growing. I can show you how to have your own success if you join me. Read my entire sales letter to find out how you can get started on your way to financial abundance.
