Learn Internet Marketing Strategies For Your Business

While I’m away at my “Hotseat Holiday” this week with my Fast Track Masterclass students, one of the FTMC members will fill in with 3 articles. In this first post, D’vorah Lansky shares how she’s implementing Phase 1 of my SIMPLE formula for success online.

Hi, my name is D’vorah Lansky. I work with professionals to assist them in growing their business, both online and offline. I’d like to thank Bob for having me as a Guest Blogger on his site. I’ve been studying Bob’s online programs for several years and this past Spring I attended his SIMPLE (School for Information Marketing Profits Live Event) seminar.   Since I’m also a former public school teacher and a current business mentor, I was impressed and appreciative of Bob’s teaching style, the caliber of guest faculty and the quality of the training materials that we were provided with.

An essential aspect of the SIMPLE training program is what Bob calls “SIMPLE: Phase 1″. This is where we select a product that has an affiliate program attached to it which complements our product or program focus or one that would be of great interest to our audience. Here’s how I’m implementing this in my business…

You’ve heard me constantly preaching from a soapbox how important it is for you to have your own information product. Have you followed through and released one yet?

You can create and release any number of products:

• teleseminar
• report or ebook
• video training series
• software
• home study course
• simple audio program
• or any combination of the above.

But perhaps you need more convincing that creating a product is important. After all, maybe you’re convinced that simple promoting other people’s products (affiliate marketing, network marketing, etc.) is good enough.

Here are 5 reasons to create your own product now (in no particular order):

Are you using Private Label Rights in your business?

These are articles, blog posts, autoresponders, reports, ebooks, even videos created by somebody else, but that you can use as if you were the author.

As a former high school teacher, I’ve always had a bit of a reservation about using PLR in my own business, because I’ve always thought that I needed to be the author of my own work.

But maybe I’ve been overlooking a great way to help more people by utilizing content created by somebody else who has given permission to reuse their work.

To help answer this “ethics question” about PLR, my friend Nicole Dean sent me this video to share with you.

She’s also a genius when it comes to outsourcing, managing affiliate programs, and quick product creation.

A shocking video reveals a few of the faculty members of the Niche Affiliate Marketing System workshop in Atlanta are also part of a world class dance crew.

Led by super affiliate turned dancing queen, Lynn Terry, the crew includes Nicole “Success On The Dance Floor” Dean, David “Can’t Touch This” Perdew, Scott “This is really how I got my six pack abs” Tousignant, and Bob The Teacher Dancer Jenkins.

An anonymous email confirmed the 5-member crew is practicing for auditions for “So You Think You Can Dance”, “America’s Got Talent”, and “America’s Top Dance Crew” (the fact that one of the members is actually Canadian has not been revealed to the judges of these shows).

But before they hit the small screen, they have big plans for NAMS 3. TMZ has obtained this video of the crew rehearsing in a barn in rural Tennessee. Warning: Viewer discretion IS advised!

What do you think? Do they have what it takes to make the big time? Or just a side show in the big tent?

Info-product sellers know that the hard work starts after you launch your product — whether it’s an eBook, a recording of your teleseminar, a membership site, or even a consulting package. The real work is in getting your sales message in front of your potential customers so they can buy.

There are many ways, as you know, of getting web traffic to your sales message.

Arranging joint ventures
This works great once you are “in” with other successful marketers, but it’s not like you can just log into people’s autoresponders and mail for them, so it can feel like an uphill battle at times to get people to send promotions for you.

Twitter & Social Media
This also works, but it involves constant daily effort and sometimes it feels just like you’re talking to yourself. Is anyone really listening?

Article marketing
Writing and submitting articles to the article directories still works, but there is so much competition that it’s hard to stand out. EzineArticles.com has, as of today, 212,234 other Authors competing with you for attention. OUCH.

Why not cut out the middle man and position yourself right in front of your potential customers – where they’re ALREADY hanging out?

Setting goals is very important in both life and business, and today I begin a public documentation of my own goal setting.

Over the last month, I’ve been documenting my personal 30 Day Autoresponder Challenge, and it’s been a lot of fun (we wrap up this Thursday with a rockin’ teleseminar with an awesome guest).

Now I’m going to be turning my attention to setting and achieving goals in three key areas: business, fitness, and life.

Normally I would wait to start this process until after my current challenge is over. But I’m getting help from a group of motivated home business owners like me, and we’re all taking part in Scott Tousignant’s Fat Loss Quickie Home Office Transformation Contest. And that just so happens to have begun today (if you’re late, you can catch up!).

Top 10 lists are always difficult because of who (or what) you leave off, but I’m going to take a chance anyway and share with you the 10 most influential women in my business right now or in the past.

Of course, there’s no way that I can really rank them in order, so I will cheat and list them alphabetically instead (by first name) :)  Regardless, I send each of you listed here a hearty thank you and appreciation for the role you’ve played in my success so far and in the future.

Hi again, Nicole Dean here with Day 5 of this series “5 Lessons I’ve Learned from Star Trek that Have Helped me with my Online Business”.

If you’ve missed any of the first four lessons, you can find them below:

Outsourcing Lessons from Dr. McCoy.

Productivity Lessons from Kirk.

Viral Marketing Lessons from Tribbles.

Time Management Lessons from Scotty.

Today, I’m here with the wrap up (and final embarrassing pictures of Bob and me).

You must have known that this last lesson was coming.

Lesson #5: Live Long and Prosper.

Now, I’m sitting in an airport writing this so I don’t have a whole lot of research in front of me to prove anything that I say. (Oh, yeah, baby, I’m a loose cannon!) BUT, I have found in my own business and in my own life that the more that I “LIVE” my life the way that I want to, the more I “PROSPER”.  Therefore we’ll discuss how to live your life so that you can also prosper in your online business.

Hi again. I’m Nicole Dean and I’m visiting this week as a Guest expert while Bob is headed to Poland.

I’m doing a Star Trek theme and am having a BLAST! (And, yes, there is another picture today.) ;)

So far I haven’t really given you much background about me so that you can decide whether to trust a thing that I say. So, here’s the scoop.

I’ve been earning a “full time” income online since 2005 and it’s increased every year.

People always ask me how I earn money online. My income is split between the following:

Hi again! I’m Nicole Dean, and I’m a friend of Bob’s. (Well, for now, until he sees some more of these pictures… although in all honesty, I think I’m getting it worse than he is! Look at my “man” body, below. And, he looks all cute. I’d better have my graphic designer put my head on some women… quick, before I get a body image problem!) ;)

So, while he floats across the Atlantic with his lady, I’ll be here keeping you entertained, having fun playing on his blog and hopefully teaching something in the process.

If you missed my first post yesterday and have no idea who I am or why I’m here, you can read it here: Nicole Dean Subs for Bob the Teacher

As you can see, I’m doing a Star Trek focus this week. The topic is

5 Lessons I’ve Learned from Star Trek that Have Helped me with my Online Business

SUB DAY!

Hi. I’m Bob’s friend, Nicole Dean, and I guess I’d be considered a substitute since I’m filling in for Bob the Teacher this week while he floats to Poland. As you can see by the picture to the left, we’ll be having some fun while he’s away on vacation. And hopefully, we’ll keep some of the shenanigans just between us!

Sidenote: What is UP with my man hands? The graphic designer couldn’t have chosen a woman’s body to throw me on? Just teasin’. I told her to make it goofy. It doesn’t get any goofier than this! :D

But, why did I pick Star Trek?

Well, Bob and I are both very successful internet marketers, but our personalities are very different. He’s very … methodical (perhaps logical) whereas I’m more of a cowgirl (jump with both feet and see what happens) kind of gal. Therefore I have to tease him a little about how organized and orderly he is, while he shakes his head at my “fly by the seat of my pants” business. Remind you of the two characters in the picture at all?
