The Real Secret in Plain Sight…

By | |
Leave a comment

Everyone who has ever started on the journey to make either a little extra money or a job crushing income from the Internet has thought that there must be a secret that was not being shared or sold to them.

I know I thought this for many years, I also thought that Google was deliberately impeding me, no I'm not really paranoid.  They are impeding me and you and it is deliberate but it's not directly targeted at you or me.

That's a story for another post.

For this post, the idea came from Kimberley Collins' article here.

It's a rather fascinating summary of a report they commissioned on how big business uses the data they collect about you and others who visit their sites.

This is what the big companies are doing, so should you.

So what does this have to do with you or me?

This is the secret that will take your online marketing efforts and mine to new levels in 2019 and beyond.

And it was never a secret.  It has always been mentioned but never highlighted in anything that I have been aware of.

But, I recently discovered that ALL the top Internet marketers do this and I suspect that NONE of the wannabes do.  I didn't until just recently when I found a website which makes this easy.

Yeah, I know.  You use Google Analytics.  You use Facebook tracking.  You use heat tracking.  You use that split-testing plugin on your WordPress blogs.

So do/did I but you know what?  None of them give you all the information you need or even want.  They give you bits of it and you can't easily collate it all together so, while you might know how much traffic hit your website and how long it stayed you have no idea that 1/2 the traffic is actually bots, not people.

I have a website, name to be ignored here, which gets about 1,000 visitors per day.  There is no activity on that website.

Why?

It's ALL bot traffic, I get maybe 1-2 human visitors per week.

What does that mean for my Internet marketing efforts on that site?  Absolute waste of time and effort.

I have to admit I was tearing my hair out, what little I have left, trying to figure out why I couldn't get any comments or activity from those who visited.

Now I know.  I can do something about it because I have real information that I can act on and I can tell when things change and how they change.

Have you ever run an Adwords, Bing or Facebook campaign and had lots of traffic, which you paid for, but didn't get enough sales to break even?  I have had many of those.

Did you know you were paying for bot traffic?  They know but take your money anyway.

What about Solo ads?  Guess what!  Same.  They also send bot traffic, they are not always aware of it themselves but it screws up your stats and makes it difficult to make your campaigns profitable.

At the moment I'm testing a very simple method for newbies to break into profit as quickly as possible with only buying one product.

It is the one thing which they'll always use and will never go out of fashion online.

How to Get Traffic to Build Your Email List.

Leave a comment

All the smartest marketers know that you must have your own email list to be able to truely control the traffic to your website and to properly control your online income.

Benyamin Elias  from the Active Campaign website has written an excellent article on this subject which I have summarised in the video below.

So, what do you think about that?  Leave a comment to let me know.

One thing you will need to build your email list is a good lead magnet.  These days an ebook doesn't get the engagement it used to get in the past so here is a different approach I have been trialling with some success.

See the sales page here and see the way I'm using it here.  I'm using the ProductDyno site for hosting other videos so I plugged the funnel lead magnet videos into there as well.

The video was made with this product.  I'm also trialling this but I think it's brilliant so far.

OK, the link to Ben's article is https://www.activecampaign.com/blog/email-acquisition/

Do go to read the whole article, it's worth the time.

Some of you will be interested in the Black Friday deals so I have gathered what I think are the best offers available at the moment.

First up is the Tony Shepherd collection.

I have been a follower of Tony's for several years now and he is a really genuine person, he answers his emails himself.  Not many marketers do that you know.

He has always told the truth as far as I can tell and the products he releases are mostly his own.  He just tells you what he does to make money online and is extremely transparent about it.

Pretty cool.  OK, the offer.  This collection is a massive discount.  There are 8 products in this collection.  They normally sell for $17 each so this is total value of $136 worth of value but this collection is only $36 but only until 23:59 Eastern on 26th November.

These are the titles:-

  • Replace Your Salary With an Online Business
  • Creating Infoproducts That Sell

If you think you'll get value from these, and you will, then the link to click now is this one - Get the Tony Shepherd Collection.

The next great offer comes from the Noble Samurai team.  I have had the Market Samurai app for years and I use it regularly to find great keywords for my promotions.  I don't use it as well as I should.

They now have another excellent product that I have bought recently which makes the creation of content videos a cinch.

Then they came out with their Black Friday special and I was ticked off because now, until midnight, you can get Content Samurai at the normal price but they have added in Market Samurai, Vidsy Copywriting, Question Samurai & Video Blueprints to the bundle.

You'll have to move fast to get this one but do it now if you are serious about ramping up your marketing efforts and making seriously good sales in the next 12 months.  This is the body of the email they sent to me.

One more.  This is a bigger package but it's also a massive boost to your marketing efforts.

It can be extremely difficult to get any traction in this world of Internet marketing so getting the mentorship of a successful marketer can be invaluable.

The offer is for 6 months of 1:1 email and live chat coaching + Q&A webinars

The normal price for this s normally over $3,500 but just over Black Friday weekend it is available at either 6 payments of $197 per month or one payment of $997

Now I understand that this is quite a lot of money for anyone and perhaps most of you will not be able to afford it even at the $197 per month payment plan but for those who can afford it this will be the best money you invest in your business this year.

Have a look at the webinar at this link and make up your own mind if the benefits far outweigh the cost. Click here to register for the webinar.

That's it for now.  I will wish you Happy Thanksgiving, if you don't get this too late, and good luck finding bargains over this weekend.

I'm assuming here that you are interested in making money online and already have an autoresponder service.

The thing is that most people, not you of course, just dabble with their online activity and just don't do enough to actually get any traction and therefore also don't make any money other than accidentally.

One of the things which cause problems for new people to list building is twofold.

The first is that they struggle to come up with a good lead magnet to offer people who visit their landing page and then they struggle to convert those people to an offer which can make them money.

I'm going to put a couple of things in front of you here which just might make the difference for you.

Firstly I'm going to suggest you visit this site, Everything Rebrandable, and take advantage of their $1 trial offer while it's still available.

This site has lead magnets you can give away which have a way built in for you to make a passive income just from that if that's all you do but you can work a bit harder at this and build a bigger passive income by promoting the site a bit harder.

The other thing is one you might have already seen but you may not have.

It's a page on this site with an offer that you might find interesting.  Go to this page to check it out. How to make thousands selling someone else's product it's a simple bit of training that you can get access to.

Any way, have a look at those and let me know what you think.

401k Retirement Plans Explained

401k Retirement Plans Explained

401k retirement strategies are unique kinds of accounts, funded through pre-tax payroll reductions. The funds in your account are bought using numerous methods.

Piggy bank

This is not suitable for your retirement funds.

Your funds can be invested through any mix of stocks, shared funds, and other investments, and it is not taxed on any capital gains or interest up until the cash is taken out or withdrawn. Congress authorized this retirement cost savings strategy in 1981, and its name was rooted from the area of the Internal Revenue Code which contains it, which is unsurprisingly, paragraph 401k

One terrific benefit of this retirement strategy is that the tax treatment is complimentary. Furthermore, taxes on capital gains, interest and dividends are not charged up until the funds are withdrawn.

Every employee can invest a personally chosen and specified percentage of his wage into a 401k strategy. Your participation, in addition to any collaborated contributions from your company, are then endowed into your picked funds. These funds will produce interest prior to being taxed, and can be withdrawn when you reach 60 years of age. At this moment, you should pay the earnings tax on the withdrawn funds. Additionally, there are techniques and processes in which you can take out your funds prior to age 60. Nevertheless, these early withdrawals regularly require an extra charge in combination with the payment of taxes.

In regards to its financial investment personalization and versatility, 401k retirement strategies provide workers and employees a substantial variety of alternatives and choices regarding how their residential or commercial property and properties are invested through time. Additionally, lots of services and business allow workers to acquire business stock for their 401k retirement strategy at a cut rate. Nevertheless, lots of retirement advisors are not in favor of holding a considerable portion of your 401k strategy in the shares of your employer or primary wage source.

A 401k retirement strategy is an employer subsidized retirement strategy, and it is classified into 2 groups: fixed payment or a fixed contribution. With this fixed amount strategy, the company promises to provide a defined amount to those who wish to retire and those who fulfil defined eligibility requirements and steps.

So what are 401k strategies? If you are similar to the majority of people, you most likely have concerns about your 401k retirement strategy. You might be questioning how a 401k in fact happens, specifically what a 401k retirement strategy is, or how you can be efficient in promoting the lessening balance in your 401k strategy. So how does a 401k strategy in fact work? If your business provides a 401k retirement strategy, you can accept sign up with. You can likewise have the choice of picking the quantity of funds you want to put in from a stock of funds provided in the 401k strategy. Your payment will consistently be subtracted from your wage prior to taxes.

Debunking the Myths about the Wealthy.

Money clip with cash.

Money clip with cash.

Fatten your wallet

Many of the statements you regularly hear around the water cooler / coffee machine are just plain wrong and usually stem from ignorance.

I've been reading Influence the psycology of persuasion by Robert Cialdini recently and have learned a lot about the way we all work.

It's a bit scary how easily we can be manipulated to do what the skilled persuader wants us to do.

One of the ways is also handicapping us in our day to day lives and tends to keep us in the income range we feel comfortable in rather than stepping up to the income we would prefer to have.

This is the area of social proof.

The idea is that when we are unsure about how to behave in a situation we look to those around us to see what they do and then we follow along because 'if everyone else is doing it it must be right'.

What happens in group discussions about wealthy people is that, because we don't believe that we can get there ourselves and we don't see anyone around us getting wealthy then "they" must be different.

Since we are all nice people here "they" must be nasty, selfish, greedy people.  This is not true of course, there are just as many nasty, selfish, greedy people who are not wealthy and there are just as many nice, selfless, generous people who are.

No, the real difference between wealthy people and those who are not is how they manage their money.

Would you believe that it's not even a secret?

You can search all over the Internet, in your local library, talk to any qualified investment advisor or pretty much anyone who has a lot more money than you and they'll all happily share with you what they do and how to do it.

Really simple steps.  Get rid of the debt, live within your income, save a nest egg, invest in income producing assets, re-invest your earnings.

That's pretty much it.

This information was even mentioned in Great Expectations written by Chales Dickens in 1860.

Well then, if this information has been around and publicly available since the 1800s then why aren't more people wealthy?

There's the rub.

Turns out that it's not enough to know about this you also have to do something about it and that's not so easy.

It's even harder when all the advertising is telling you to buy now pay later, here is the latest wizz bang greatest thing since sliced bread and all your friends have one now so you had better catch up.

Credit is easy to get for almost anyone particularly for things you don't even need and probably won't use more than 2 -3 times.

The hard thing is to ignore all that crap and focus on getting your money where you want it to be.  If you have credit card or store debt you need to get rid of that because it's expensive debt to carry.

Go here if you need help with that.

The other challenge as it turns out is that it takes time to build up assets to serious wealth and in the early years it doesn't look like you're gaining ground at all.  You can find out how to work out this stuff on this site but an overview is that compounding interest on a savings account follows an exponential curve and takes approximately 14 years to really start to see the effect.

Interestingly it is the same regardless of where you put your money but most people give up after about 5 - 7 years and necer get to see compounding really kick in.

If they can remain disciplined everyone has the potential to retire a millionaire without anything but regular savings and safe investing.

But they wont.

They don't have the discipline.

The only short cuts that I know of is to inherit a large amount of money or to win X-Lotto.  Neither of these are classified as financial planning or reliable financial instruments so you can't rely on them.

In general those people who do inherit or win don't manage to keep it very long because they don't know how to handle it.

What you can do is take control of your money starting today.

Every little bit of reduction in spending helps, every time you choose to not add to your debts helps, every little bit of additional payment on your debts helps.

You can do this, sit down, do a tally of all income and all expenditure, work out where you can cut down the expenditure and how you can accelerate the payment of your debts.

Are you ready to begin the path to financial security and perhaps even wealth?

How to become more productive.

​I'm currently reading Pre-suasion by Robert Cialdini and found a few things that might help all of us be more productive.

Productivity in producing content, making contacts, writing emails etc is one of the big factors in what will determine your success online or anywhere else.

I know that I get distracted easily and I have a number of half finished projects to prove it.

Most of us reading this know what it is that we have to do to make affiliate marketing work but our focus shifts and we lose time to things that are not productive. Those of us who are new to making money online will learn what they need to do by being here.

We are all told that we have to think about whether our current activity is business building or not to keep us focussed but the challenge there is that we all need to have time out from that to just enjoy our on and off line social activities.

All work and no play ...

So, what did I find that will help?

Firstly, instead of just developing a persona of our ideal customer we also need to find an image of that typical person, print it out and post on your wall in your workspace. If that isn't possible make it the desktop image on your computer. If you can find one where they are enjoying the results of your product so much the better.

Secondly, when you are writing content for your website, email broadcast, ebook etc. and you know you won't complete it in this session stop writing 1/2 way through a paragraph not at the end. This has the effect of agitating you to get back and finish it off as soon as you can.

Thirdly, set your goals using this phraseology. If/When ... then ... As an example, When I finish writing this post I'll get back to writing the program. Or, If I get 5 likes on this post I'll write another one like it.

You can use this for long and short term goals. This phraseology has the effect of setting up a trigger for an action so when the trigger happens the action must follow.

There you go then.  If you are struggling with your productivity and goal setting. I trust this will help.

Yeah I know that sounds dodgy but it isn't.  Not only is it legal and ethical but the product owner will thank you and perhaps pay you a bonus if you sell lots of their product for them.

Now that sounds pretty cool doesn't it?

OK, selling is a bit of a show stopper for some but with this stuff all you really are doing is finding customers for the product owner to sell to, you don't have to know anything about selling or even do any.

You certainly won't be making telephone calls or knocking on doors or any of the other crappy things usually associated with selling.

No, what you will be doing is...

Let me start by telling you about how the Internet was grown.

In the beginning any sort of sales activity was frowned upon but gradually those who wanted to keep the Internet pure from commerce realised that in actual fact commerce was the one thing which would make sure the Internet grew fast and would link the world.  To do that they needed money, lots of it, so commerce was accepted and everyone was encouraged to get involved.

The one thing which has grown the commerce side of the Internet fastest is Affiliate Marketing.

This is a form of marketing where an affiliate, that's you, shows a potential customer where to find a product they actually want or need.  If they buy it from the product owner you'll get paid a finders fee or a commission.  This is a bit like you telling a friend that there is a great special on at Aldi, except Aldi won't pay you anything for that recommendation, mean sods.

The great thing about this is that your friend won't pay any more for the product than they would have if they found it on their own, the commissions come out of the product owner's pocket.  They are happy to do this because you will find customers that they wouldn't have found so they think that it's worth getting a little bit less on the sales to get more sales than they would have without the help.

Does that make sense?  It does to me.  Even Amazon does this, they'll pay you around 6% on any sales you generate, it's partly why they got so big.  Google used to pay for new signups until they got so big they thought they didn't need any more help.

Why the hell have I spent so much of this page explaining all that?

Well I have managed to get access to a pretty cool product which tells you all about how to set yourself up as an affiliate so you can tap into this multi-billion dollar industry, yes I did say billion.  Like a slice of that pie?

Even better than that I have managed to get it for you for free, well almost.  I'll explain that later as well.

What you'll get in this package is a zip file which contains the product which is a pdf called "Affiliate Marketing Master Plan" but that's not all, I've also managed to score you the right to promote this as your own product, set whatever price you like and keep all the money or to use as a bonus for other products you may be promoting.

Now this type of package, which includes the sales page and all the images, with these rights can cost anywhere from $30 to $100 so this is an awesome deal for you. And you don't even have to give up your first born for this.

So, do you want this package?

Let me know in the comments below... Put a Yes and the reason why in the comments...
