Todd Falcone has created a great video blog post on network marketing funded proposals. It’s a VERY controversial video and you may be surprised on what Todd has to say. So please be warned now, you may not agree with what he has to say.
I have followed Todd for quite some time now and always like his blog content. He has moved more to a video blog so you get to see some of his humor and behind the scene footage in his home office.
Have you ever wondered how some people can get anyone to do want they want? At first this may seem to be a bit arrogant and may not be how you market yourself, but after reading Frank’s post you will get it. Actually it’s not selfish at all and has nothing to do with some egotistical manipulation trick. It’s completely the opposite.
I came across this concept in an email that Frank Kern, one of the most successful and influential internet marketers around, sent me and wanted to share it with you because I think it can translate into your business if done right. I have used this many times and yes it does work.
To check out this super cool way to get others to do what you want, just click the link below, enjoy and leave a comment on what you think about it.
Blogging is taking off like a wildfire. People are blogging about just about anything you can think of. From the daily routine of their cat, to technology reviews, to politics.
Until the blogosphere sorts itself out and matures a bit more, it may be difficult to tell exactly how this new frontier of instant publishing can help you and your business grow. But don’t worry – you’ll start getting a flood of new ideas in the coming months.
For now, the most important thing you can do is develop the right mindset about business blogging. What you think about something, and how you strategize appyling it in your business very often has more to do with succes than the technology, tool, or resource itself.
With that in mind, here is the most important thing you can do. Keep your eye on people.
DO NOT get stuck on the “technology.” That’s what drove all the pie-in-the-sky dot.com dreamers into the financial abyss. It’s people and personal communication that matter most, and should always be at the center of all your thoughts, strategies, and actions.
Blogging is just a tool. But it’s a tool that can and should become a major support arm of your business. Why?
Because it exponentially multiplies the world’s oldest, most favored, and trusted form of information sharing — word of mouth.
Just ask yourself, whom do you trust the most to give you advice, recommendations, and information about opportunities, purchases, or choices? Someone you know and trust, right? Someone who you feel is just like you.
That type of trust comes from personal communication, social interaction, and the joining together of like-minded individuals. Blogging simply magnifies and expands that sense of community and more personalized communication, and then expands the reach across the entire world!
Link trust; with respect, positioning, and word-of-mouth and you have the makings of a powerful marketing arm that can initiate an ever-growing stream of highly targeted prospects.
Remember, it’s the relationships that matter most. Keep your eye on that fact, and you’ll always have the right mindset for business blogging that’s a benefit for you and your readers.
Talk soon,
P.S. Blogging can explode your business if done right, but sometimes it’s difficult to know where to get started and what service to use. I was there once too, so if you find yourself there also, I would like to share with you where I got started. You can click The Quansite Revolution link below and see for yourself.
One quick note before I get started here. I want to thank my Twitter followers who are following me because you are genuinely interested in me.
Ok, so unless you have been hiding under a rock, you have heard about Twitter and the power it can have in your business. And if you have been hiding under a rock and don’t know about Twitter, get an account NOW and start tweeting It’s free to join. You don’t want to miss the growth boat on this one. But I’m getting tired of people stating they have followers in the thousand’s or even ten-thousand’s and are not justifying who those people really are.
Check out this call I did with another marketer and good friend of mine, Carlton Flowers, going into details about this controversial topic.
P.S. So, what did you think? Share your comment below. I would like to get youropinion on this topic.
I wanted to give you a little Twitter marketing tip today. But before I get to that, if your not using Twitter, get on this thing as fast as you can because it is becoming a great business tool and I would hate for you to be left behind.
So what is this powerful new viral Twitter marketing tip? It’s very simple to use and you don’t have to be a computer “geek” or programmer to get it working for you. This is something you can implement immediately and if you can follow some simple directions, your good.
First, create some text at the bottom of whatever you are promoting that says something like, Tweet this post…Your followers will thank you! Or Tweet this video….Your followers will thank you! Be creative. This will work with just about anything. Now highlight the text you just wrote and create a hyperlink for it. Your hyperlink will look like this=>
http://twitter.com/home?status=
After the equal sign you want to put what you want the tweet to say when someone clicks on your text link. You see, when someone clicks on your text/hyperlink it will open up Twitter, they will sign into their account and whatever you put after the equal sign will show up in their update box automatically and they just have to hit update and presto, it’s in the Twitter stream.
So you could put this under a post on your blog or a video and when someone clicks to “tweet” it, it not only could become viral and create a ton of free traffic, you could also create some followers on Twitter.
P.S. To see how this works, go ahead and click on the banner below, log into your Twitter account and watch what happens.
P.P.S Now that I’ve shared this gem with you, leave a comment and let me know what you think and how this could help your business. Or, if you are already using this, let me know how it has helped your business out.
1. It’s got to be a BIG idea that you, your team and your
customers can “get” in seconds.
2. Strive to create 10x – 100x in value for any price you
charge. Your rewards are always proportionate to the value you provide.
3. You must charge a premium price so you have a large
margin to provide an extraordinary value & experience.
4. Provide a ‘Reason Why’ customers should do business with
you and pay you a premium.
5. Get paid before you deliver your product or service. And
when possible figure out how to create recurring revenue from transactions.
6. You get to make the rules for your business. Don’t let
industry norms dictate how you’ll work or who you’ll work with.
7. Create your business around your life instead of settling
for your life around your business.
8. Consistently and constantly force yourself to focus on
the ‘critically few’ proactive activities that produce exponential results.
Don’t get caught up in minutia & bullshit.
9. Seek to minimize start-up risk but have maximum upside
potential.
10. Get your idea out there as fast as possible even if it’s
not quite ready by setting must-hit deadlines. Let the market tell you if you
have a winner or not. If not – move on and fail forward fast! If it’s got
potential – then you can make it better.
11. Find partners and team members who are strong where you
are weak and appreciate being paid on results.
12. Your reputation always counts. Honor your obligations
and agreements.
13. Never, ever get paid based on hours worked.
14. Leverage your marketing activities exponentially by
using direct response methods and testing.
15. Measure and track your marketing so you know what’s
working and what’s not.
16. Bootstrap. Having too much capital leads to incredible
waste and doing things using conventional means.
17. Your partners and employees actions are their true core
– not what they tell you.
18. Keep asking the right questions to come up with
innovative solutions. “How?”, “What?”, “Where?”, “Who Else?” & “Why?” open
up possibilities.
19. You’ll never have a perfect business and you’ll never be
totally “done”. Deal with it.
20. Focus most of your time on your core strengths and less
time working in areas you suck at.
21. Make it easier for customers to buy by taking away the
risk of the transaction by guaranteeing what you do in a meaningful way.
22. Always have something else to sell (via upsell,
cross-sell, follow-up offer, etc) whenever a transaction takes place. The
hottest buyer in the world is one who just gave you money.
23. Always go back to your existing customers with
exceptional offers and reasons they should give you more money. It’s 5x less
expensive to sell to happy customers than go find new ones.
24. However the flip side is – fire your most annoying
customers. They’ll be replaced with the right ones.
25. The marketplace and competitors are always trying to
beat you down to a commodity. Don’t let that happen.
26. Develop and build your business’s personality that
stands out. People want to buy from people.
27. Create your own category so you can be first in the
consumer’s mind.
28. Go the opposite direction competitors are headed –
you’ll stand out.
29. Mastermind and collaborate with other smart
entrepreneurs if they have futures that are even bigger than their present.
30. Celebrate your victories. It’s too easy to simply move
on to your next goal without acknowledging and appreciating the ‘win’.
31. Make your business AND doing business with you FUN!
32. Do the unexpected before and after anything goes wrong
so customers are compelled to ‘share your story’.
33. Get a life! Business and making money are important but
your life is the sum total of your experiences. Go out and create experiences
& adventures so you can come back renewed and inspired for your next big
thing.
34. Give back! Commit to taking a % of your company’s sales
and make a difference. It this becomes a habit like brushing your teeth pretty
soon the big checks with lots of zeros won’t be scary to write. If you think
you can’t donate a percentage of your sales simply raise your price.
The social media marketing craze is happening, as you may already notice, so if you want to get ahead of the game you need to learn the proper way to use this type of marketing in your network marketing business. A Twitter friend of mine, Perry Belcher and Mike Dillard put a couple of excellent videos together to teach you how to use social media in your business the RIGHT way. Actually, until I saw these two video’s I didn’t exactly “get it.” They do such a great job explaining it, I’m not even going to attempt to put it into words here. I will just give you a link to the video’s so you can go right to them. Again, as I was watching them, I had some “ah-ha” moments. So check it out and leave a comment to let me know what you think.
I have great news for you today. Mike Dillard sent me an email to notify me that he has now released his Magnetic Sponsoringand Building on a Budget courses as e-books. So you now get instant access to the two most popular training books in network marketing without waiting a week or longer for the physical book to arrive in your mail box. So if you are looking to move your network marketing or multi-level marketing business to a whole new level, I highly recommend, as do other top notch network marketers, checking out these two books. You will get more value out of them that far exceeds the price. I know I did. These two books opened my mind to a whole new world for my business. You will also learn Mike Dillard’s secrets for running a successful business. If you are serious about treating your network marketing business as a business and not a hobby, then it’s a must to learn attraction marketing. I hate to be so blunt, but it’s true. If you are not seeing the results you want from the “old style” of network marketing then it’s time to learn the secret of how the six and seven figure earners in the business are doing it. I once heard a saying that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. And scientist Albert Einstein advised we can’t get out of a situation using the same thinking that got us into it. Truuuuue dat.
Below is a portion of the email from Mike Dillard.
“The strategies I’ve always taught in Magnetic Sponsoring have been the
most
effective technique you could possibly use, but they’re going to work
that
much better now thanks to the economy and the increase in competition
which
is good news for anyone who’s read the course and used the turn-key
system we
provide.
So if you don’t open a copy of Magnetic Sponsoring, you’ll be
glad to know
that we just made it MUCH easier to get your hands on my
techniques…
As of today, Magnetic Sponsoring”, and “Building On A
Budget”
are now available as E-books with instant access.
Forget about
the shipping charges, and having to wait a week for your
course to
arrive.
Now you can place your order and have complete access to your
course, all
of the bonus items, and the #1 lead generation and affiliate
system in the
industry in less than 5 minutes.
And yes… Both courses
still come with our industry leading, 1-Year,
no-questions-asked,
Guarantee.
You either get the kind of results you want, or you don’t
pay.
It’s that simple.
I can almost hear the applause from our
international friends who’ve
always had to wait two week for their course to
arrive.
Frank Kern has put out a great video on how to prosper during the current state of the economy.I have decided not to participate in the so called recession that we are in.The people who prosper are the ones who see opportunity in every downtrend.During the Great Depression, John D. Rockefeller proclaimed, “These are days when many are discouraged.In the 93 years of my life, depressions have come and gone.Prosperity has always returned and will again.”
One concept that Frank points out is the massive and rapid transfer of wealth from people like “THEM” to people like “US”.
Check it out, I think it will give you some inspiration plus set you on the right track.
