Learn Internet Marketing Strategies For Your Business

Snow is falling again in my old school system. If I was still teaching the ninth graders, I’d be wearing my pajamas inside out and doing the “Snow Day Shuffle” – in the hopes that school would be closed.

Yes, it’s true – teachers love snow days even more than the students.

I’m no longer teaching school, but I can remember how much I took advantage of the snow days in the early days of creating my business.

So here’s a quick list of 10 things you can do in a single snow day to move your online business forward…

As you think of how you’ll manage your time and resources for the next year, use this list of the top 5 profit activities to guide you.

1. Build a List

First and foremost you need to be building a list.  You need to be building a list.   Now this doesn’t just mean building a list of contacts.  It doesn’t just mean building an e-mail list in an auto responder.   It means you’re building up a group of people who know who you are, who anticipate hearing from you and are willing and able to follow what you’re doing and take action on what you’re offering.

So it comes in the form of an e-mail list like a service like Aweber.  It also comes in the format of your social networks like Facebook friends or fans or Twitter followers in other resources.  You’ve got to be the person that people want to connect to.  If you’re promoting something anonymously there’s no real way for you to build a list very effectively.  People want to connect with a human being.  They want to get to know you.  They want to get to know your business, your personal life a little bit.  They just want to get to know you so they know they can trust you.

So you’ve got to be focused on building up your list.

‘Tis the season for gifts galore, and I’d like to give you not 1 but 3 presents to put under your tree (you can decide if it’s a Douglas fir, a cactus, or a bush, etc…).

Watch this video for more about this (and to meet my 2 kids)…

And here are your gifts (each are PDFs you can download straight to your computer and print out)…

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.

You’ve been hearing me talk a lot about NAMS 3 – the Niche Affiliate Marketing Systems workshop in Atlanta in January that is all the rave right now among internet marketers who value real education at conferences.

I interviewed David Perdew about what makes NAMS3 different, and to explain the benefits of the Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced tracks of the weekend that sets it apart.

At the end of the audio, David surprised me and gave out a coupon code to save $100 off the registration. Make sure you get that before you register.

The presenters David has lined up are incredible teachers, and since the event is a no-pitch event, you get some of our best stuff. Plus the sessions are designed to have us teach you what we know, then give you time to implement it right there on the spot.

While you listen the audio below, here’s an unofficial list of speakers:

Are you feeling a bit stagnant when it comes to the sales of your products and services?

Obviously, getting more people to see your offer could help, but you can’t always control your traffic as much as you’d like. Plus, you may be in a situation where you’re getting the traffic, but they simply aren’t buying.

So here is my top 10 list for actions you can take today to increase your sales, without focusing on traffic.

If you’re not split testing parts of your webpages, you may be growing your email list slower and earning less money than you could be.

I’d like to share a quick case study of a recent split test I did with a teleseminar.

The Test

For my 30 Day Autoresponder Challenge, I interviewed Justin Premick of Aweber, and invited people to listen in. Before I sent out the invitation to the 30 DAC participants, I created 3 different versions of a web form in Aweber.

All 3 forms were exactly the same except for one thing: how much time did it take for the form to show up?

I was using the “lightbox” form on my Instant Teleseminar page, and wanted to see if it made a difference how fast the form popped in.

The 3 versions were set to pop up after 7 seconds, 15 seconds, and 22 seconds, respectively.

Care to guess which one would be the best?

When it comes to building your business, are you a weekend warrior? Are your Saturdays and Sundays the only time you get to work on improving your website, marketing, and product creation?

If you are a service provider, or have a full time job outside of your business, you already know that the time you can easily get caught up in the time-for-dollars tradeoff. The great promise of revenue from internet marketing is leveraging your time more efficiently.

And what that really means is you need to have at least one information product that does the marketing for you.

It can serve as a lead generation tool so you can pre-qualify your potential customers, and perhaps recommend solutions to them and earn as an affiliate.

Or you can create an information product that people are willing to pay for. With a digital product, your gross margins are extremely high. And it’s pretty fun to be working on something completely different and money comes in because of your information products.

The problem weekend warriors face is finding enough time to put a product together. So you stall and keep working on the band-aids instead of moving forward as fast as you’d like.

On Tuesday, October 6, at 9 p.m. ET, I have the honor of bringing Adam to you, where he’ll be revealing a few time-tested, low cost marketing strategies to attract clients like crazy, that work in a recession or in boom times.

Learning from Adam personally has given my business a big boost this year, and it’s exciting to be able to bring his expertise to you.

I’m sure you’re going to walk away with a minimum of 5 golden nuggets you can use to grow your business as we enter the third quarter of 2009.

You may have noticed by now that I’m swinging back and forth each day between 4 different essential strategies that need to be weaved together for effective listbuilding:

• Traffic
• Conversion
• Communication
• Monetization

Yesterday we finalized a 2 day process of creating a new opt-in offer (i.e., list bait, or free gift) by connecting the new offer to a revised squeeze page. That falls into the conversion category.

Today, we’ll be getting into the monetization area. And if we do it right, later in the challenge I’ll connect what we do today to my very favorite traffic source (more on that soon).

So here are the steps to tackle today:

• Create an irresistable offer package
• Set up the download page for that offer
• Create the sales page for the offer

Tomorrow, I’ll make a payment button and connect the system to the list. So this is part 1 of 2 for monetizing with a special offer.
