Internet Marketing Is a Waste of Time!

Ever heard that before? I just had an email from a very nice couple who was told those exact words. This was my reply:

Hi _________________,

So your upline told you its a waste of time? Well, the good news is that as long as other network marketers keep thinking that way...then people who utilize the internet are going to rise to the top! Look at a blog as more of a personal diary. It is a place where others can come to read something interesting about you. Share your thoughts and experiences in network marketing and what you've learned, etc.

Article writing is very powerful. Probably one of the best FREE methods of advertising. Make sure you pick a topic with a main keyword that is not too generic (otherwise you'll have way too much competition) and then write about 300-500 words including different keyword phrases that have the main keyword in them. Once you have about 30-60 articles out you will get a decent amount of traffic. Remember, advertising does NOT have to cost money...money just leverages time. And if you don't have the time to write so many articles you can always pay someone from Elance to write them. One word of caution: Make sure your project description is very detailed (inluding topics, keywords, keyword phrases, how many words, how much per article)...and I would not pay anymore than $7.50 an article. Go to http://www.bummarketingmethod.com/ for a very good resource on article marketing!

There are other FREE methods using Web 2.0 tatics that I haven't really touched on yet. If you use myspace go and download "adder" for myspace. It allows you to literally pick a certain group and then it will automatically invite them one by one to be your friends (make sure you only do 300 friends a day...my space does not allow anymore then that). You can also send a comment out to everyone automatically. You should create 5-10 profiles and do that for all of them. Again, this takes time but can be very effective. Go to http://OpenAdder.com for the tool.

You can also visit mlm forums and others like them. Put your website url in your profile. And remember NOT to advertise but to simply join the forum and discuss topics (sometimes those forum members can be mean if they think you are there to advertise). As you participate people will click on your profile and visit your webstie. Just do a google search for "mlm discussion boards" or "mlm forums", etc. and you should be able to find some really good ones.

By far the fastest and most trackable method of advertising is pay per click. If you have a little money and follow everything I teach you will have a constant flow of traffic. Remember, you don't need to just use google adwords. there are many many different search engines with pay per click. But you still apply the same principles.

As time goes on I will continue to do training calls, video tutorials, and blog posts on how to utilize different methods to get traffic.

Pay no attention to the ones who say it doesn't work. I get 30-40 REAL time prospects a day...not very many can say that. Those who master the art of "marketing" will rise to the top!

Sincerely,


The reason I included this here is that some people many get discouraged if they wrote a few articles, created a blog, and aren't getting good results. Look, if you want the BIG traffic then you have to take some time to do it. But I guarantee RESULTS as you spend more time applying all of the tactics I teach you. Whatever you do...don't just try a couple methods for a couple of weeks and stop! To master "marketing" it takes time but once you do...the sky is the limit!

See you at the top!

Next week I will continue our pay per click lesson...lot's more good stuff on the way!
