It probably seems like magic…or a scam.

But let me tell you, it’s neither one. In fact, it’s pretty easy once you have the business tool these big-profit marketers have.  And Michael Rasmussen’s new “Get More Buyers” video course shows you how to get it.

*************************************************

The secret weapon these marketers have is a mailing list absolutely stuffed with buyers.

What’s great about Michael’s course is that he hands you 10 practical strategies for attracting eager buyers. Actually, he’s showing you the way he built his own list, which is pretty much legendary as a JV profit powerhouse.

I’ve reviewed the course myself, and I can say a few things with confidence…

First, the quality of the course is excellent. This was obviously professionally done. The audio is near
studio quality, and the presentation he walks through makes the concepts completely clear. Michael’s previous products were clearly made by somebody who KNOWS how to make a great product, and this one
continues the tradition.

He starts with a brief introduction to the common list-building mistakes people make when they’re just starting out online. This certainly explained some of my own struggles—it’s not just “fluff” material.

For example, he tells you how to create your own profit-pulling marketing “funnel”, even if you’re starting from scratch. He also tells you the root cause of the two major challenges most people face…but then he goes one better. He tells you specifically how to crush those challenges.

He walks through 10 strategies for stuffing your list full of buyers. This is amazing material. Here’s just
a sample of what he covers:

* The “magic” price that can get you buyers almost immediately if you’re selling your own product

* How to increase the profit you make on each sale by 50% of more, almost immediately, and with hardly any effort (it’s all about buyer psychology)

* How to “steal” buyers from other marketers, and actually have them thank you for it!

List-building books and courses are a dime a dozen, but Michael’s course is one of the best I’ve ever seen. There’s no tired old advice that doesn’t work today. He’s giving you real strategies that he uses himself, and that helped him create a list that routinely brings in five and six figures when he sends an email.

If you want results like that for yourself (and who DOESN’T, right?) then you check out Michael’s “Get More Buyers” course. Your business profits will be very happy you did!

Aside from that, you also want to avoid any problems with the law and your internet service provider or ISP.

Here’s how to avoid getting in trouble with the law of the ‘Internet’…

There are now many laws and rules that are applied to help protect the privacy of the internet users from spamming and unwanted mails. With the popularity of the electronic mail as a medium for marketing because of the low cost, many company’s have seized the opportunity and have flooded many people’s e-mail accounts with promotional mail.

But, with an opt-in list, you avoid this annoyance because people subscribe to the list; they want to receive the your newsletters and promotional materials. They have consented to being on your list by subscribing themselves. When send information to your optin list, don’t forget to put an unsubscribe feature every time in your opt-in list email, so that you avoid any confusion. There may be times when an email account was provided when the real owner didn’t want to subscribe.

It is essential that you keep your list clean and manageable.

Arrange it by using the many tools and technologies available for your opt-in list. Do not worry; your investment in this marketing strategy is well worth it with all the coverage you will get which will likely be converted into sales then to profit.

Keep yourself and your business out of trouble and potential run-ins with the law and the internet service providers. Keep your operation legit and clean. Your reputation as a legitimate businessman and a legitimate site depends on your being a straight and true marketing strategist.

As a tip, here are three things to avoid when emailing your list.

1) Take notice of your unsuccessful sends. These are the e-mails that bounce. Bounced emails, also known as undeliverable messages, are those messages that, for whatever reason, were not successfully received by the intended recipient.

There are bounces that happen or occur because the server was busy at that time but can still be delivered in another time. There are also bounces because the inbox of the recipient is full at that time. There are those bounce messages that are simply undeliverable ever. The reason for this is that it may be an invalid email address, a misspelled email address, or an email address that was abandoned and erased already.

Manage your list by putting markings on those that bounce. Erase an email account from your list so that you have an accurate statistics and records as to how many are actually receiving your mail. You may also want to check the spellings of your email addresses in your list. One common mistake is when an N instead of an M is placed in the .com area.

2) Always provide an unsubscribe feature in your site and an unsubscribe link in your emails. When someone in your list files a request to be unsubscribed, always take that request seriously. If you don’t take them off your list and keep sending them your e-mails, you are now sending them spam mail.

When you are reported as a spammer, you and your business can get into a lot of trouble. You can be reported to the authorities and maybe blacklisted by many internet service providers. You will lose a lot of subscribers this way and many more in potential subscribers.

3) Do not provide pornographic or shocking and disturbing content in your newsletters. It is hard to decipher the age of the recipient and many complaints may stem from these. Controversial issues also are to be avoided to not be branded by your subscribers. Stick to the nature of your site and business.

Always remember these tips in this article so that you can have a healthy relationship with your subscribers as well as keeping within the boundaries of what is allowed by law when sending emails to an opt-in list.

To keep yourself safe and to make more sales, effective opt-in email marketing campaigns start with knowing the right way to create emails that you send to your opt-in list. I have helped hundreds of people increase sales by using the proper email techniques.

When I first started with my internet marketing business I had no list to promote my products to, so I had to find other ways to get traffic…and when you’re short on moola it’s impossible to do things like Google’s PPC.

Don’t get me wrong, PPC can make you a lot of money, but you can also lose your butt…

So what’s the alternative for a newbie marketer with no list?

Okay… you can do articles, free classifieds, social marketing sites like MySpace, Facebook, Twitter and don’t get me wrong I use these everyday in my business - but they aren’t fast enough!

=> Especially when you need to bring in some cash quickly <=

Today you need to start thinking like a guru! Here’s how…

All of the BIG time marketers promote each others product launches. That’s how these guys make $100,000, $200,000 and even $500,000 on their product launches…they all have big list….

…20,000, 50,000, some have 200,000 or more people on their mailing list!

If we were part of that “Guru Click”, we’d make a lot of money too, but until you have a big list of your own the Gurus won’t even consider promoting our products until you first start helping them make money. And I’m not just talking about 1 or 2 sales!

You’ve heard the saying - wash my back - I’ll wash yours!

=> This is where the Money Siphon System comes to YOUR RESCUE! <=

A guy that I know by the name of Jonny Andrews created the Money Siphon System. The cost is $77.00. I always recommend it to anyone who signs up as an affiliate for one of my products.

If you’re not an affiliate yet for one of my products, then you probably haven’t heard of the Money Siphon System.

Here’s the scoop…this is a “copy and paste” system with several video training modules that show you exactly how to use (OPEL) to your advantage.

What is OPEL?  >> Other People’s Email List <<

There are 1,000’s of targeted, eager-to-buy subscribers just waiting to hear about your product!

Why am I telling you this? I want to help you start tapping into this fantastic resource…whether you have your own product or whether you’re into affiliate products, it doesn’t matter.

…by helping you, you might consider selling one of my products as an affiliate. Simple as that!

If you don’t have a list and you aren’t part of the “Guru Click” that has 20 or so big name Gurus sending out 300,000 promotional emails for you, then I would take a look at Jonny Andrews’ Money Siphon System…

I bought it, I use it and it has helped hundreds of people just like yourself tap into this seldom used goldmine.

Check out the Money Siphon System and see what I mean.

In this part, I want to talk a little about selling link space on your blog. In spite of the changes over the last couple of years for search engine optimization, links are still worth their weight in gold. You can think of your “Blogroll” as real estate that can be leased out to others.

Other website owners want to get their links on web pages and blogs around the internet. They do this becasue inbound links carry a lot of weight with the search engines.

The theory is that the more inbound links they have, the higher their page ranks are in the search engines. Those inbound links give the site importance and the presence of a high number of inbound links and that makes the site seem more important.

One thing that I have noticed is that search engines have gotten more particular about the practice of linking. One of the most important things to keep in mind, especially when you are tying to get your link on sites is to make sure they have quality content.

So, where can you find these people who are willing to pay for your link real estates?

Again you can find hundreds by doing a search, but here are a few to get you started.

1. Linking Service - http://linking-service.com - Allows you to set your price and time limit. This is a free service, however they may retain a portion of the links sold on your site.
2. Link Adage - http://linkadage.com - They offer a link auction and an exchange program. If you are selling your links, the auction is what you will be most interested in.
3. Back Links - http://backlinks.com - Pays 50% of the revenue generated from your link sales. These are for text links, and you will have control over which links appear on your site, including the look and feel of those links.

You must use some caution when selling links on your blog. You need to be very descreet. You are not breaking any laws, but your site could be penalized by Google if they happen to find out you are selling link space.

Don’t ever state publicly that you are selling your link real estate. Don’t post it in forums and don’t post it in you blog. To be safe, just use a link service and make sure that the service operates in a professional manner.

Too often, people think that Google can’t legally control anything and that they have no right to penalize them for anything - especially if they are not signed up for any of Google’s services.

Wrong!

Google is a corporation, they can do anything they want when it comes to their company. Should they find out you are selling link space to help get better rankings in the search engines, they can completely exclude you from their listings if they want to and there is nothing you or I can do about it.

So, you can do it, but be as discreet about it as possible. When you sell a link, and add them to the Blogroll, make a short post about it and recommend the site to your readers. Make it look as ‘legitimate’ as possible for Google’s benefit.

How much are you link space worth?

This depends on your Google PageRank. The higher the page rank is, the more the link is worth. These are only approximate, but a PR-3 = $3, PR-4 = $4, PR-5 = $7, PR-6 = $20, PR-7 = $50, PR-8 = $100.

You will probably have a hard time selling link space if you have less than a PR-3. When you first start your blog, you should definitely work on search engine optimization if you want to rank high. Good quality content is the best way to improve page ranking.

Yes, the objective is to make money - but at the same time, your objective is also to keep your site useful for your readers. Your readers are why you have a blog….

In our next session, I’ll be covering what I feel is the best way to monetize your blog.

Til then…keep on blogging!

In this part of “Blogging For Cash”, I wanted to cover another source that you can use to add income to your blog. This is becoming more and more popular, mainly due to the growth of the internet and the number of people searching everyday for information. 

Aside from having Google Adsense on your blog, you can also sell advertising space to individual business owners and even corporations. What you should know, however, is that few businesses or corporations will be interested in advertising on a blog that does not have a large readership.

There are literally billions of blogs on the internet. How will any potential advertiser find you? It could take years to become noticed by those who want to buy advertising space.

Fortunately, even the little guy has options these days…

You don’t have to wait for advertisers to notice your blog.

You can use an advertising network instead, and get ads appearing on your blog in no time at all.  This is not the same as affiliate marketing. You are not being paid when a product or service is sold. Instead, you are either being paid when ads are clicked on your page, or when they are viewed on your blog.

A word of caution…

Many of the advertising networks will not allow you to run their ads alongside other advertising network ads. When you sign up for an advertising network, make sure you read their polices so you don’t get banned from any programs.

Here is a short list of advertising networks that you can check out. Do your research on each to find out what they have to offer and their policies.

1. AdBrite.com
2. ContextWeb.com
3. Chitika.com
4. ValueClickMedia.com
5. ExpoActive.com
6. CrispAds.com
7. Bidvertiser.com
8. AdEngage.com
9. AdGenta.com
10. BidClix.com

Many of the networks do not allow other networks to be advertised on the same site as their ads, so you will need to check out the policies on each. If one network provides all of the advertising options that you need, go with that one network.

Pay special attention to how you will get paid. Compare the different networks and the different advertisers. Obviously, you want to get the most out of the advertising space that you have available.

Remember that in most cases, unless you are just paid for the use of the space, which is rare, you will only earn revenue when ads are viewed or clicked. This means that you need lots of traffic. The more traffic you have the more money you can earn.

Overall, if you are indecisive between Google AdSense and the advertising networks, the networks have greater payouts than AdSense does. However, it is easier to get approved with Google that it is with the networks.

In Part 6 we’ll talk about “Selling Links On Your Blog”

Til then, have a great day….

As he started to receive emails from the five lists he subscribed to, he saved each of the emails in a special folder. That way he could go back to each marketer’s emails and see how the emails were structured to see which email marketing strategies grabbed his attention the most.

Which ones made him beg for more! Here’s what he realized…

Some marketers would send emails in a very simple fashion, some would be very outlandish, while there were some that would just lie in between. The differences could easily be noticed! Some had a very effective email marketing strategy, most did not!

Of the five that he subscribed to only one seemed to really do it well.

The one he dubbed the most effective made him feel like he just couldn’t wait to go to their site and learn more, the more persuasive one even got him halfway to reaching for his wallet and to his credit card before he realized this was only for an experiment.

He told me that many of the marketers presented their promotional materials in a wide variety of concepts. Each had their own distinctive style and designs, but more than the outline and the presentation, the content and the articles were the keys to keeping his attention locked on to their marketing medium.

Creativity is the key!

From talking to many satisfied opt-in list subscribers and forums, I have learned what is essential in email marketing and what makes subscribers beg for more instead of lining up to unsubscribe.

Keep your promotional materials light, creative and original. Many people are stressed out as it is. Getting a stuffy business proposal rather than a light hearted e-mail is just going to aggrivate them more.

A warm friendly smile or banter is always more welcome than a serious business meeting or proposal. While you do want your customers to take you and your products and services seriously, you also want to show them that you know how to have fun.

Splash some color in your emails as well as provide some photos and articles that can be related to you, but show good news or good light hearted images as well. Provide a newsletter or promotional materials that will keep them in a light mood. Make your materials eye catching and grabbing so that they won’t be able to take their eyes off them.

Pique their interests!

Have good content and articles, even if it means investing in an experienced and professional copy writer to write them for you. An effective copy writer should be able to build trust between you and your customers. They should be able to establish your credibility in what they write. It must be informative but not too stuffy. Let go of the professional “jargons” and talk to your recipients.

A good article and content should be able to outline the benefits of your product and services and why they need what you are offering. But… do not look to be overeager and too persuasive. Your emails should be able to entertain as well as lead them to buying from you.

Your promotional materials should be clear. Don’t leave people guessing!

You should lead them to you and not vice versa. Explain to them what they need to do in a manner that won’t be confusing. Try to anticipate also what your target client needs. Do your research and information gathering, find out what you can do to solve their problems. 

Provide clear and crisp images of what you are offering. If the people know what you have for them, they are more likely to beg for more. For example, if you are selling a car, provide them photos but only enough to encourage them to go to your site for more.

Are the emails you’re sending….helping or hurting your business?

Recently, I was talking with a friend of mine who has a list of about 700 people that he sends emails to on a regular basis.

He said that his result were somewhat below average as far as getting people to take action on what he was promoting. Since I’m on his email list I was also getting several of his emails, and I must say…

I could see why he wasn’t faring out too well.

I asked him what his reasons were for sending out the emails and what he put in the emails. I was surprised when he told me that he usually sends out emails when he comes across something of value or maybe a product that he likes and tries to promote it.

From the emails I read, I probably wouldn’t buy either.

I told him to do an experiment and subscribe to five different opt-in email marketing lists to see which ones he felt were effective and to really look at the ones that tried to develop a relationship first.  And as he got more emails from each, look at how they inspired him to click on the links within the emails.

When he found ones that inspired him to follow through and really liked…he should then model his own email campaigns in a similar way.

If you haven’t done this type of experiment before, I encourage you to do so, even if you have a small list.

Remember! It’s not the size of your list that brings in the money, it’s the relationship you have with your list as to whether they will take your recommendations and either buy your product or what you recommend.

This is a great learning experience for anyone who is sending emails to their list on a regular basis. I get lots of emails everyday from even the so-called gurus and they absolutely stink. Sometimes I think they write emails just for the sake of sending out emails to their list.

Don’t do that! If you can’t send out emails that have good quality content that your readers can use…don’t send any! 

You hurt yourself more than you are doing good. If people get crap more than once, they unsubscribe! 

I’ll cover the results of his experiment in my next post.

Til then…

Okay let’s get right into it…

In my last article I was talking about squeeze pages and how James Grandstaff did a survey of about 500 people on his list to see just how many of them had heard of squeeze pages.

The results astounded me!

Only 68% of those surveyed knew what a squeeze page was, let alone what squeeze pages could do for their business. I hope you got to take a look at one of James’ squeeze pages so you can see just how powerful they are. But that’s not the reason for this article.

What I want to tell you about is a little known traffic generation tactic that very few people are using today. This guy is getting over 600 visitors to his squeeze pages every hour with his new system! When I first read that “I thought… what a bunch of bull”. Of course I would never tell James that because I know him…but 600/hour? Can you image what that kind of free traffic can do for your business?

I’m sure you want to know how he does it, just like I did!

Okay… I won’t keep you in suspense any longer. He uses >> TRAFFIC EXCHANGES <<

So what are traffic exchanges? Good question…let me try to give you a brief overview.

Basically, Traffic Exchanges are a free medium whereby members of the exchange agree to view other members websites for 10-20 seconds in exchange for a traffic credit. The idea being, that as members are surfing or viewing other members sites they may come across one that spurs their interest and they visit that site and either sign up for what they’re offering, buy their product or just go onto the next site.

Sounds simple enough, but what do you get for those traffic credits that you earn as you look at the various site of other members?

In each of the exchanges that you belong to, which by the way are all free, you can exchange your credits for views of your bannner, squeeze page or sales page. In other words it’s like a cooperative exchange where “you scratch my back…I’ll scratch yours”. Everybody wins!

So now you have a general idea of what traffic exchanges are, but how is James Grandstaff getting 600 visitors per hours to look at his squeeze pages?

First off…he only uses squeeze pages on traffic exchanges - nothing else!

His thoughts are… “If people are interested in what I’m offering (usually a free ebook), I ask them for their name and email address in exchange for the ebook. That way I can develop a relationship with them through emails when they get on his list and hopefully I can sell them something of value in the future.”

Now here’s where it gets interesting…

We can all get signed up for traffic exchanges and start submitting our squeeze pages, but it is time consuming because I tried to do it one at a time. I thought… “how the heck am I going to get enough traffic credits to exchange for 600 views per hour of my squeeze pages”?

That’s where his new product comes into play! He uses very attractive squeeze pages with audio that draw your attention as people surf the exchanges.

To see just how he does it take a look at the full set of videos. Don’t worry, there is no cost or optin box to view the videos. You get immediate access to the videos.

If you’ve been visiting my blog on a regular basis, you know that I write most of my articles on different aspects of internet marketing. I do that because not everyone needs help on the same subject. Some of my readers may be struggling with getting traffic, some with getting a product to sell, others may want to just get a blog of their own. The list goes on and on!

I haven’t written too much about squeeze pages on my blog, although I have written a couple for my newsletter which is published monthly. If you’re interested in reading those articles, you can find them on my newsletter (I-Net Marketing Success). You can get on my mailing list just by entering your name and email at the top right side of this page, there is no cost involved… it’s free.

Anyway, what I wanted to talk about today…

I recently came across an interesting bit of news from James Grandstaff, who has made quite a name for himself in the network world. He revealed something that I found quite interesting… and this goes to show that you should never assume anything!

I never gave it much thought, especially if you’ve been around the IM (internet marketing) scene for awhile. I thought almost everyone had heard of the term “squeeze page”!

At least that’s what I thought.

Well, James surveyed approx. 500 people on his list who are interested in making money online. Many stated they were interested in affiliate marketing, product creation, MLM, etc…

One of the questions was “Do you know what a “Squeeze Page” is?”

68.05% answered yes and 31.95% answered NO.

To be honest…I was shocked that 31.95% surveyed said no. I use squeeze pages all the time for my business so I just assumed most people were using them.

What about you?

In light of this shocking survey data, I decided to write this post today to go over the very basics of what a squeeze page is and why you should be using them in your business (if you are not
already.)

And for those of you who already use them, pay attention. You will probably learn something too.

Here goes…

A squeeze page which is also known as a “lead capture page” or “landing page” is a simple
web page with one purpose; to get your visitor to give you their name and email address so you
can follow-up with them. That’s it.

One of the best ways to get someone to opt-in to your squeeze page is by offering something
of high perceived value such as a mini ecourse or a highly targeted ebook.

For example, let’s say you are promoting a multi-level marketing business opportunity, your own products or maybe even an affiliate product. The products are great and you are a raving fan.

Most people would just start promoting the website the company supplies.

I say no! This is a perfect opportunity to implement the use of a squeeze page and offer something of value first. That way, you collect the leads, you follow-up with an introduction of yourself and begin building a long term lasting business relationship.

In sales, what we are really selling is “us” first, then the product.

You always want to provide value first. Once your prospects warm up to you, then it’s time to ask the right questions to determine if your product or business opportunity can help solve their needs.

James has just come out with a new product called “Instant MLM Squeeze Pages” where he reveals a little known “free traffic generation method” that really works!

It’s awesome!

I’m now starting to see fantastic results. I spend an hour a day and my income, traffic and list are growing at a rate I can’t believe! In my next post I’m going to give you some insights on this little known traffic method that you may want to start using yourself.

In the meantime, if you’d like to see a high quality, high converting squeeze page that James has put together, you can visit the link below. It’s important to read the “thank you” page on the other side so you can get an idea of how the whole process works.

Unlike the real world, the Internet never sleeps and is open 24/7. Not to say that it is easy to build an successful online empire.

In fact, a 99% of online entrepreneurs fail miserably.

Don’t worry, you can avoid becoming a statistic. Whether you are an online business owner looking to increase sales, affiliate marketer looking for more commissions, or in direct sales seeking to grow your down line, you really need three things.

Leads… Leads… and more Leads!

All joking aside, if you are struggling with your online business and wondering why you’re not making money on the net. The problem could simply be that you do not have enough customers knocking on your door.

Does that surprise you? If you think about it, any successful business (be it online or in real life) depend on customers. Without sales, your business will die. It’s as simple as that. So the question you should be asking yourself is… “How can I drive more customers to my website, and how do I get them to buy?”

Here is where lead generation can help….

Lead generation is a marketing method that can bring potential clientele interested in a business’s products or services. The whole purpose of lead generation is to find people that will buy, not just browse.

What is the best way to generate leads?

There are many ways to generate leads. There are many ways to generate hot leads. There is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way. The most popular lead generation methods include opt-in lists and buying sales leads. Email Marketing is a highly effective method of generating leads. It also builds customer trust and loyalty so they buy from you again and again.

However, because of spam and anti spam laws, it’s not as easy as it used to be.

This is why Internet marketers rely on opt-in lists to generate email leads. With opt-in lists, you are essentially, asking somebody’s permission to send them email solicitations. It’s a proven fact that you may need to contact your leads 7-10 times before they decide to buy from you.

The simplest way to do this is to place opt-in forms on your website.

For example, some online websites create monthly newsletters that anybody can register for. But placing opt-in forms on your website doesn’t always guarantee a gigantic opt-in lead list. So, if you don’t want to create your own opt-in list, you could simply purchase a lead list. If you’re too busy to generate your own business leads, purchasing advertising space on ezines and newsletters might appeal to you.

Just remember, if you are going to purchase leads keep this in mind:

You get what you pay for. High quality lead lists can be quite expensive, but the more targeted the leads the better. Don’t waste your money with cheap lead lists. Remember, you don’t want window shoppers or tire kickers. You want targeted traffic that are willing to open their wallet and buy your product.

There is no right or wrong way to generate leads.

For example, if you thought that eBay was just for people that want to sell nick-nacks and antiques, you would be very surprised to know that a lot of savvy Internet marketers use eBay to generate quality leads.

How?

Well, they use eBay to run auction ads for cheap items related to their business including introductory kits, ebooks, special software, or other physical items. Then they create a system that captures the names and addresses of the bidders that visit their auction.

The purpose of the auction isn’t to make a big profit or sell anything. What’s the goal? The goal is to generate red hot leads by collecting a bidders name and email addresss.
