Are you using Attraction Marketing in your Online Business? If not, You should be…

As I was going through the list of all the new people who had clicked to “follow me” on Twitter over the weekend… I discovered one name that I immediately recognized.  She’s well known and she’s written several publications that have sold around the world to marketers of all venues.

That she would follow me made me feel good but I knew there must be something “IN THIS” for me…  She didn’t follow me because I’m me… did she?

Well, truth be known, she does have a new piece out in print and I’ve downloaded my copy.  I’ve read a good chunk of it and that’s what I’ll be reading this evening… instead of watching the TV!  Learning how to use Attraction Marketing in my online business sounds VERY interesting to me.  I doubt that there’s anything on TV worth watching anyway… and they’re not going to teach me ANYTHING that will help me create a living in today’s economy…  They’ll just tell me how bad the economy is and that I should run for cover.  Well, my opinion is that the TV should probably go out with the trash tomorrow and most of the newscaster’s opinions with it!

Sorry I digressed…  Let’s get back to the new report!

The author is Ann Sieg and her latest publication is “The Attraction Marketer’s Manifesto.”  You may have read her previous works… “The Renegade Network Marketer” and if you did… she claims that there were some “needed pieces” that this new work fills in.

You can find a copy of the report at: http://solutions4life.MarketersManifesto.com

Here’s  direct quote from her note about the new report:

It’s a 75 page PDF report and it contains a lot of extremely valuable information that will help you build a profitable network marketing business.

It’s definitely a MUST READ! (Why?)  Because I don’t think any of the stuff that’s covered inside it can be found anywhere else on the Internet. Not even in other products that many people charge you for…

So, Get on over to the link and get your copy and start reading!  It could change your life forever!

Find the Plug-in’s for your WordPress blog here

If you’re constantly seeing things on other people’s blogs and wondering how they do them, the answer is typically with a neat plug-in or a theme.

In looking around for the plug-in’s that I wanted for my blogs (and those of my customers) I discovered a great source of plug-in’s and wanted to point you to it as well.

It’s a collection of 250 or more WordPress plug-in’s and more. More you ask? Actually the package comes with the Master Resale Rights so you can buy the package, take the plug-in’s that YOU want and put them to work… and then offer the package to others and maybe earn a few dollars to pay for the package and a few cups of coffee or whatever your favorite beverage happens to be.

You can find the entire package waiting for your inspection HERE.

So click the link, scoot on over and take a look.

Will 2009 bring Boom or Bust for your Internet Marketing business?

There’s a lot of speculation as to how the year 2009 will go for those IM’s out there hoping for a good year.  I imagine that what makes up a “good” year to you might be a disaster to others so in order to measure your progress, I’m recommending that you put together a method by which you can actually measure progress or the lack of it.

What were your sales for 2008?  Expenses? All those numbers that you’ll need to do your taxes, especially if you’re here in the United States.  Then, take a look at what you WANT to do in 2009.  Are there any expenses that you see that you can trim? Efficiencies that you can create to help you to achieving a profit in 2009?  Maybe even a NICE profit?

Then look to see if you used the BEST methods for promoting your biz. What can you do differently to achieve better results? Asking these questions now can help you put together a more profitable ending to 2009… but only if you start now!

Did you use WEB 2.0 methods for promotion in 2008?  If not, you should be!  A “loyal following” in a social network is much more likely to respond positively to your suggestions to look at “product a” than people on a “name list.”  Anywhere from 2 to 3 times more likely!  Think what that could mean to YOUR bottom line at the end of 2009!

One of the easiest WEB 2.0 networks to get started with, in my opinion, is Twitter and you can easily follow me there to see what I do to promote me and/or what I’m doing. The good news is that you don’t have stay glued to your computer to find out what I’m doing. Just check in once or twice a day, log in, and the information shows up on your computer screen.

There are NO long messages.  140 characters will be your longest message sent or received! That’s the limit.  You’ll learn how to say more with less in a big hurry!  The website at www.tinyurl.com is what many use to compress LONG url’s so they can include links to web pages and more.  Check it out.

Are you marketing the EASY way or the SMART way?

It would seem that everybody but me is promoting the new Instant Banner Creator (IBC) like crazy.

I guess I didn’t get excited about IBC since I’ve been making and hosting my own banners for several years. I’m a student of Doug Williams, that entrepreneurial Canadian that started the MoneyLegs.com group several years ago. You see, Doug was my online mentor until his death a few years ago.

I don’t do “FANCY” very much as I believe in the old school way of doing things which is simple and to the point. Doug was very stern in his teaching and he told me to host everything that I used on my OWN server.

It’s my belief that the IBC will enable newbies to make some nice banners to use in their promotions… but it does not teach them any graphical skills whatsoever. And what happens when that program dies… as many of those type do? What then?

Instead, I recommend to my audience to start with the beginner level of PaintShopPro to make their banners. It takes more time but they can then take pride in saying that they really did create that banner or any other graphic they need… and if they want them animated… the animation shop that is a companion to the main package makes animated banners a snap!

You can download an OLD version of PaintShopPro at www.oldapps.com and a search on Google will find you all kinds of tutorials if you need them.

Now… if you don’t know how to host your own banners, and good tricks like that, you can always take some of the great classes offered at MoneyLegs.com and we’ll teach you how to do that and much, much more. Why not drop by for a visit today?
