Learn Internet Marketing Strategies For Your Business

So I’m patiently waiting for my SIMPLE home study course to be completed based on the live event I held 2 weeks ago. Over the next 6 weeks, the audio, video, transcripts, and bonus 30 day implementation program will be compiled and ready for release. I’m shooting for my birthday (April 26) for the program to be available.

To tell you the truth, I’m very excited about it, but it’s a daunting task bringing all the pieces together!

In the meantime, I’d like to teach a virtual workshop to help you with your business even before the SIMPLE home study course is ready. I’ve narrowed down the areas I would personally enjoy teaching this time of year to 3, and I need your help to pick which one to actually do.

So please take a quick moment to rank these 3 potential virtual workshops as it would fit what you need right now.

This week seems to be officially “Big Ticket” week – or “how many ways can you be tempted to invest substantially in your business.”

Among others, here are the choices that I know about (in no particular order):

• Alex Mandossian’s Teleseminar Secrets
• Jeff Walker’s Product Launch Formula 2.3
• Kevin Nations Prospect Seduction Blueprint
• Bob The Teacher’s Online Profit Academy Live Workshop

Obviously, I’ll be a bit biased about the fourth one, but this lesson today is more about deciding if investing in a “big ticket” program is a smart option. Feel free to evaluate the programs above for yourself after you’ve read through my criteria below.

If you’re tied into the internet marketing universe, you’re likely seeing TweetGlide exploding onto the scene. TweetGlide is a free software program from Mike Filsaime that combines the functionality of a useful Twitter App with a viral advertising/referral system to help you promote your business.

I’d like to share my initial opinions about it, to give you a better idea if TweetGlide is for you.

In brief:

Pros

• Free
• Works/looks like TweetDeck
• Ads are only seen by other TweetGlide members
• TweetGlide members who see ads are likely on Twitter for business
• Referral program for increased ad views
• Affiliate program
• Easy to remember affiliate link
• URL shortener
• Premium upgrade option special offer is cheap
• Premium ads include longer messages and color

Cons

• Ads
• Works like TweetDeck
• Can not control what is said with the “Tweet my affiliate link” option
• Money and Twitter have been hard to marry openly
• Unproven how long people will use it

I’ll explain more about the pros and cons soon after I’ve tested it out more, but since it’s free and the ads you run are only in TweetDeck it’s worth trying out without fear.

Test out Tweet Glide for yourself and let me know what you think with a comment below!

Have you ever wondered why when you do a search for certain keywords that pertain to internet marketing like

• learn Facebook
• best internet marketing teacher
• or best teleseminar training

my blog here at AskBobTheTeacher.com and other sites of mine show up in the top 5?

More importantly, have you ever wondered how you could do the same thing for your keyword phrases?

A not so well-known secret to my SEO success is the platform I’m using to build my website here. Since early 2007, I’ve been using Blogi360 to run my site. And the new media marketing engine that runs my site is largely responsible for my results (in combination with my USING it actively).

Now you can have this same powerful engine doing much of the online marketing for you.

But you won’t be using Blogi360.

Blogi360 is like the caterpillar stage, and later this week it’s metamorphising into “QuanSite”.

In fact, you’re going to be hearing a lot about this “Quansite Revolution“.

This past week, like most weeks, I have been seeing countless buy now offers from just about everybody.

How about you?

I get tempted just like everyone else to whip out the credit card and plunk down the asking price in a hurry. But I stop myself (most of the time) by asking 5 simple questions:

When I first saw this new “pirate-themed” product about affiliate marketing with Clickbank, I thought – oh, no, not again.

Seems like we’ve already seen way too many Clickbank millions types of products.

But I’m never one just to cast off stuff from the name or the graphics alone.

Side note: the other day, in Brooklyn, I was trying to find a good local restaurant for dinner. The one that I found on Google didn’t exist. So I went on to Yelp! on my iPhone and found Yemen Cuisine on Court Street.

It was a DIVE hole in the wall place that read “S-k-e-t-c-h-y” all over it. And it was the best food I’ve eaten in a long time!

Point: you can’t judge a book by it’s cover, and you really should try stuff yourself to make a judgment.

Anyway, back to this Pirate thing…

I was invited to test drive this new program, and to be honest, if it wasn’t coming from who it came from, I would have turned it away.

At first glance, Clickbank Pirate is one of those glitzy, graphics heavy products like we’ve seen before. And usually those fall really short on substance and the average person trying to start out with affiliate marketing will have little success with it.

But since it’s from Soren Jordansen and Cindy Battye, I was willing to give it a closer look.

Why?

Because Soren and Cindy are two of my most active affiliates, and it seems like every day one or both of them makes a sale on one of my sites.

In other words, they know affiliate marketing REALLY well.

Plus, I finally met them in person on the IM Success Cruise in January, and they know their stuff.

They also love to be creative with their marketing, and make it fun to learn from them and use their systems. Cindy has Traffic Bunnies traffic exchange, and Soren has products like Floating Action Buttons.

Anyway, on with the review…

Most of the time, you hear about affiliate marketing in regards to selling other people’s stuff. But this week, I want to teach you why you need your own affiliate program.

First, let me share the results of the poll I gave out the other day.

I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “It takes money to make money”.

Are you finding that to be an obvious truth you’ve embraced and exploded your business?

Or a frustrating reality and challenge you can’t seem to get past?

When you market your business online, there are certain expenses that you should be expecting.

Things like

• Hosting ($10/month)
• Autoresponders ($20/month and up)
• Graphics ($50- $300 per site)
• Support assistance ($100- $200/week)
• Transcription services ($90/teleseminar)
• Mentoring & training ($100-$1000/month)

And all those are important, and should really be considered investments in your business more than expenses.

But if your cash flow gets squeezed and you’re not able to maintain much less expand, what can you do?

Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and keep working in a soul-sucking day job a little bit longer than you’d like. And if you’re currently out of work, you may be taking on some odd jobs that you feel are beneath your skill set.

I’d like to share with you a conversation I had the other day with someone who has an intermediate answer.

Have you ever wanted to be at the center of attention, or at least be in the middle of the conversation?

You can do it when you create your own social network – and despite what you may have heard from others, you can create your own social network for free.

The tool I use is called Ning. I use it to run my IM Success Tribe mastermind and coaching program, as well as my peer-to-peer network for any of my subscribers and customers.

Not too long ago, I did a call about Ning with Scott Tousignant, who uses is for his fitness customers as well. Here’s an excerpt from that conversation:
