ViSalus Growth

Just a relatively short video from ViSalus going over the 3rd quarter 2011 Growth of the Body By Vi 90 Day Challenge. One interesting point that Blake Mallen makes is that ViSalus gave away $1.5 million in FREE merchandise to its promoters and customers. WOW, that’s more than some entire companies do in volume! While we are just getting started, there has never been a better time to get started! Get in contact with me and lets see if the time is right for you!

Hope you have a great week!

Blogs are crawling off, into forgotten corners of the web and just blinking out of existence at a sickening pace. (Suicidal Blogs)

Why?

Because blog writers are fickle and selfish, all they care about is becoming popular and and making a bunch of money. If the blog they write does not perform the way they want it too, they neglect it, to the point it can no longer take it, then it dies. This is really sad but it is true.

Can we really blame the author of the blog?

No, because, no one can expect, to throw love at a blog, day after day and never get kind of return.

There’s a great new PDF called “Talking Down A Suicidal Blogger” designed to show bloggers how to get more in return from the blogs they write, . It is all about the “secret” methods that all the “guru” bloggers have been using all along right under your nose.

I don’t want to spoil the surprise and be like the jerk at the movie theater who tells you the ending before the show, so I’ll let the report speak for itself. After all, it is free so why not grab it yourself, here now.

I can blurt out the “secrets” here and now, it sounds so simple! However, you really need to see the whole report to get the maximum affect. When you open the PDF and get a chance to see the examples and the mind maps you will get so much more than I can explain here, without plagiarizing this well written publication. This will really work and  I am expecting you to get more readers and profits almost immediately!

I enjoy writing this style of blog post because someone already did the work of explaining the “secrets” for me, while I get to receive credit for passing along valuable information to you.

Don’t let your blog commit suicide. Show it the love you once gave it the day you wrote your very first post. Only this time around, you will have the knowledge of the “secrets” and they will unlock the hidden pleasures only a writer and a successful blog can share.

Here is the link again Talking down a suicidal blogger to download your own free copy while they last.

Saving the life of a suicidal blog will never be easier.

A little while ago, I purchased Ryan Deiss’ Facebook Ad Power. What a refreshing change to all the other BS that I have seen in other “training” courses of so called guru’s of Internet Marketing. Straightforward, to the point, and information that you can actually use!

Ryan’s Facebook Ad Power is one ot the best traffic training courses I have seen. He has already updated the info to make it even more current!

I know as a marketer we are supposed to put some kind of “urgency” in a post like this but the only urgency I see you need with this product is “It’s great info” and a real value for what the course costs. He has however taken it off the market once and may do it again. Why?

Ryan says that he simply doesn’t want too many people to ruin his best traffic honey hole.

Here is a link to his video (if it’s still up)

Facebook Ad Power video

The free video alone is nothing short of eye opening and a great lesson in video marketing.

Ryan explains SO many ways Facebook is better than Google, you’ll be shocked.

The Right Mindset Makes It Easy To Make Blogs Work For Your Business

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 applying it in your business very often has more to do with success 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 a the center of all your thoughts, strategies, and actions. A managed site lite QuanSite can help you stay focused on content instead of technology!

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.

Ready To Unleash The Power Of Blogs in Your Business?

It’s been simmering below the surface for
years and now this power shift has finally boiled over into simultaneous national recognition. 

Like
Goliath being slain with a lowly slingshot, the mainstream media (in the form
of Dan Rather) came to the undeniable realization that they were no longer in
control of information.

Within 30-minutes of that
now infamous TV special on “60-Minutes II” broadcast bloggers were digging into
the facts and questioning the validity of what had just been presented by the
42-year broadcast veteran. In less than one week, CBS admitted it could
“no longer vouch” for the memos. And just weeks after the election,
Rather announced his retirement and the blogosphere won another victory.

No matter what your
political affiliation is, this incident is one very public example of the power
of blogging. Blogging is quickly accelerating into a steeping, sloping growth
curve of popularity and application. ABC News selected Bloggers as “People of
the Year”, and Merriam-Webster declared “blog” its “word of the year.”

Putting the power of blogs to work for your business can have more an impact than you can imagine… and it’s easier than you might think.

It puts the power of
information and the impact of influence in the hands of the “average Joe”. It
makes instant publishing a reality regardless of your technical skill level.
And it’s a business growth tool that the savvy small business owner can no
longer afford to ignore.

The world’s oldest, most effective form of communication
and marketing on steroids!

So why is blogging gaining
popularity so quickly?  What’s the
attraction?  And why is it so darn
powerful?

The answer is quite simple
when you consider history and human nature.

Blogging is an unstoppable
technological force that exponentially multiplies the world’s oldest, most
favorite, and most trusted form of information sharing — word of mouth.

Think about it.  Who do you trust the most to give you advice,
recommendations, and information about opportunities, purchases, or choices?

If you’re like the vast
majority of people, it’s the opinion of someone you know and trust. 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.

Blogs and the blogging
community deliver all that — and more.

Now is the time to master
business blogging and put it to use for you! Do it before other proactive
business owners step into your ideal niche and muscle you out of this primetime
opportunity.

As marketers, we sometimes just simply forget the basics! Not long ago, while visiting a new local business, the manager asked me to put some of their flyers in our business. I am sure that the first time they asked this question, it may have been quite difficult, however, this young lady had apparently asked the question many times before and was quite good at it. What impressed me more than anything else was the preface to the question. It was simply, “If I don’t ask, the answer is always no”. They must have successfully placed them in many places because now, they have a thriving business.

On a recent trip to Disney World, my stepdaughter, wanted something from one of the candy stores. After making our selections, I noticed that she was intently watching one of the ladies behind the counter make chocolate covered strawberries. Wow, did they look delicious. We were however, in quite a hurry to leave. I would have liked to buy some of those strawberries, but simply did not want to take the time to locate them in the store, take them to the counter and wait in line again to purchase them. Katelyn however, simply asked the clerk behind the counter “Do you have any free samples?” Then, she simply waited. Initially, the clerks response was negative, but after a few moments of waiting, she simply slid a chocolate covered strawberry across the counter into the waiting hands of a young teenager that was bold enough to “ask”. A couple of great lessons here.

First, she asked. How many times have you been in a situation where you thought someone around you might be a good candidate for your business opportunity, or really needed a nutritional product that your company has, and thought, “oh, they won’t be interested” or “this is not the right time, I’ll call them later”.  “Ask and you will receive”. We are commanded to take action before getting results. “Knock, and the door will be opened.” The saying is not, think about asking and you will receive, or the door will open before you knock! Don’t forget to ASK!

Second, she waited. If we had rushed out of the store, guess what, NO strawberry! No results because we were in too much of a hurry. When you do get to the point of asking, you have to wait for the answer. Do not rush your prospects or customers. In this world of instant gratification, no one wants to wait anymore. Many times, we need to give our prospects and customers time to process the information that we have given them. Give them the chance to say “yes”.

Don’t forget to ask! because “If you don’t ask, the answer is always no!”

Thanks for your time!

With the current economic situation here in the US, it seems like an appropriate time to help as many people as we can to be able to build an online business.  In order to help everyone, we have to have a way to generate leads as quickly as possible and as inexpensively as we can.

The big question is, if you have an extremely limited budget, how can you build an online business? The old saying “it takes money to make money” is somewhat true.  So, especially in these tough economic times how can we maximize the effectiveness of our expenditure? Fortunately, there are lots of success stories out there.

Russell Brunson of dotcomsecrets.com tells his story of turning $20 into a multi-million dollar enterprise in just a few years. Russell recently started a contest whereby he is teaching contestants how he accomplished this feat by giving a free course. If you have not signed up, you can do so by clicking here. He is even helping your earn your first dollar online by giving you a dollar for everyone you refer to the sight (up to $100,000). As a relatively newcomer to the online business world, I can tell you that what he teaches makes a lot of sense and put into action will work. Part of the success in this contest is that you have to complete homework assignments. This forces you to actually DO something instead of thinking about it. I have been amazed at the progress I have made in just a few weeks. It’s not too late to get started so give it a try!

Mike Dillard is another successful online marketer. I have purchased some of his stuff and it is really top notch also. One of Mike’s products is even called “Building on a budget“. This course is full of ideas on how to generate traffic and sales in whatever business that you have. Mike has included a set of 5 videos you can get for free just by clicking on the link. “Building on a budget” can get you started on the right track by showing you the ropes on what to spend your money on and what to avoid. Excellent information (and it’s inexpensive). At least why not get the free videos, the information is priceless.

If, like me, you have a network marketing business, definitely try out Betternetworker. This site has a HUGE number of articles and online helpful hints to help you build your business. There are tons of people that will help answer your questions. Spam is not allowed there so don’t let “Karl the Cop” catch you trying that.  Betternetworker is a place to meet others and network with them in a noncompetitive place. It’s kind of like the Facebook of networker marketers. You can network there just as you can on Facebook or MySpace. Social Marketing for the networker.

So, is it possible to build an online business for nothing? absolutely not. At the very least you must have internet access and a computer. Beyond that, it is possible to get the training you need inexpensively or free. It’s also possible, if you know where to go and what to do, to generate traffic to your website and or blog. We don’t have to have all the bells and whistles and a huge budget to get a huge website up. It’s a lot of work and there is a learning curve, but the internet is making it possible to make a substantial income online while starting out on a shoestring.

It’s the American Dream – Rekindled! Anyone, with the determination to learn and do (this is the key) can be successful online!
