How To Promote Your Blog Effectively…

(Without Spending A Fortune To Do So!)

For whatever reasons, your marketing (and or) attempting to promote some product or service online. And you know you (constantly) need fresh original content,right?

But for whatever reasons, your constantly struggling trying to figure out what exactly to blog about,correct? The first thing you need (make that) must do is, take the focus off you.Huh?

Focus on your target niche market. Meaning-  exactly what issues are they concerned about? (That you know about and can offer assistance with.)

What do they like to do? What insights can offer into helping them improve their lot in life? If you don’t know yet, then why did you choose that particular niche.

What exactly are you prepared to do (consistently) in order to earn a steady income? And why would these potential customers and clients, decide your business, products or services are the right answer?

 How To Promote Your Blog – Using These Three Incredibly Simple Strategies….+-

Before you dive head long into proven traffic generating strategy # one. Which is blog commenting by the way.

Think about the psychology of “blog commenting.” First off, are you truly appreciating the incredible marketing leverage, this one incredibly simple (targeted) traffic generating strategy is.

Think about this; another highly respected expert (within)  your chosen niche, has already built trust, and a (probably) sizable following, via their blog.

Which means you (as the potential) blog comment er, haven’t spent one nickel to identify these eyeballs.

And the best part is, they’re coming there (actively) looking for solutions. So your well thought out blog comments, will effectively demonstrate  how well you understand and sympathize with their issues and concerns.

That’s why a certain percentage of them will click through to your link, which is hopefully directing them to one of your best market tested lead capture pages.

1.) Strategy # one: As you just read: you want to actively comment on (both) relevant blogs and be active inside of forums that relate to your specific niche. That’s how to promote your blog  effectively.

Because you’ll leveraging another successful marketers previous hard work. They’ve already done the heavy lifting.

2.) Strategy # two: The next extremely  powerful way  for you to effectively promote your blog is by actively seeking out  (highly) active social mastermind blogging communities like blokube.

This particular cyber community was specifically created so that like minded Internet marketers and blogger alike could come together, network, share  ideas, via solution driven content and create tons of free (high authority site) back links.

And that’s how you inexpensively increase blog traffic.

 3.) Strategy # three: And finally…. Of course you need to post to own blog consistently.

But let’s quickly focus on one simple strategy that you can consistently use at least three separate ways. This strategy focuses on how to consistently create the type of solution driven magnetic content that causes your best potential subscribers, customers and clients to keep coming back!

A.) The next time you read a really good book, that pertains to your niche audience. Write a quick post, describing how (or) X number of ways reading it helped you and how your readers/subscribers will benefit too!

(The more you know and truly care about your target audience, the simpler this proven strategy is to do.)

B.) Or the next time you attend (either) a live workshop or an online webinar. Write a post or series of posts about how you specifically benefited from it.

And relate it to your audience and show them their specific connection (s) to  it. (Or shoot a quick video, and describe (either) the # one thing you got out of attending, or the X number of specific benefits you received and how or why you feel, it will help your audience.)

C.) And finally, the next time you listen in on a really good tele- seminar, (either) shoot  a short 3-5  minute video (if your not camera shy) and quickly detail two or three main points.

Inspirational thoughts.

You must keep thinking inspirational thoughts!

Who else from time to time needs those powerful inspirational thoughts  to emotionally pick yourself up and (somehow) find the strength to keep on keeping on?

Practically every bodies been there at least a few times (over the years), right? Especially when your taking on something new and a little different, correct?

You invariably hit the proverbial (stop progress) wall and simply find yourself battling the all powerful doubt gremlins, on some level.

This is where you really need to bare down and have that all important support mechanism (whatever) it might be, really kick into gear.

Otherwise, you may just find yourself looking for that always elusive, quick fix.

And that’s (invariably) when you run into trouble.So just call this that proverbial shot in the arm every body needs every now and again!

How Often Do You Rely On inspirational  Thoughts To Help You Get Through It?

Because (as in business) and life in general (my friend) there simply isn’t any magic bullets! You dream big enough (or) you dare to be ambitious enough, and life,friends and family (will) at some point, seek to bring you down! Oh yea!

As you can see, this particular post is not necessarily about how to strategically market your business, product or service.

No, instead this post is about how you effectively go about molding that all important process that takes place between your left and right ears!

Because until and unless you get that right my friend, the rest (as they say) is moot! Not too worry, this not an attempt to play Tony Robbins or Les Brown etc.

It’s just, you can’t spend (invest) all your time, money and other valuable resources on all this outer stuff and totally neglect, what needs to take place internally.

So What Inspirational Thoughts Have Inspired You Lately?

Check out both the videos on this particular post, you might call this a two-fer, because both are so incredibly relevant  that’s the reason they were both included.

Ultimately, what you do or don’t do will ultimately decide how well or bad your entrepreneurial endeavors will go.

Not the economy, or some new law, or which political party is currently in power or whether or not you get that new contract or whether or not interest rates goes up or down etc.

Of course (without a doubt) all those issues and concerns will play a part.

But (in the end) it’s really (thank goodness) about how well “You Inc.” performs.

Because (ultimately) if your right, in the long run, every thing else will be right too! And like every great champion (before and after you/us) you will face many adversities!

But in the end, it will be those powerful inspirational thoughts , that somehow see you/us through!

So stop your whining and complaining and get after it! Because life loves to beat you down, so that the champion in you/us,  can get help you get up (over and over) if necessary and win!

It’s not who gets knocked down, nor how many times you get knocked off your feet my friend!

It’s about how many times, you can find the courage and the strength to keep getting back up!

It’s Either Inspirational Thoughts Or Destructive Thoughts!

And speaking of totally awesome inspirational thoughts,  an extremely successful online marketer that currently earns about $30 k per month (sometimes more!) He has a very powerful saying to describe things (not long ago) when things weren’t always so rosy!

He likes to say, “Too many people see the the glory, but not the story!’ Amen to that!

Promotional sales ideas.

Are your promotional sales ideas really working?

   (How You Can Cash In Big Time Using Promotional Sales Ideas For Information Products You Didn’t Even Write!)

And the absolute best part is, this powerful little known, rarely revealed marketing strategy has absolutely nothing to do with purchasing any type of costly re-sale (and or) master resale rights of any kind! Say what!

That’s correct, you don’t have to go down the resale rights road, unless you really want to!

Introducing Three Incredibly Powerful Promotional Sales Ideas That Will Finally Put You In The Drivers Seat!

Q.) Do you currently have any idea how many offline hard cover books get published every year? And gets shredded every year? A proverbial ton.

Which means, an awful lot of aspiring authors (annually) gets their dreams of becoming national or internationally known authors, shattered.

By the dismal   sales numbers their labors of love actually bring. And just like a balloon, as one side contracts (shrinks) the other side (that being) the less taken entrepreneurial side simultaneously expands.

Of course, don’t expect the typical extremely non entrepreneurial author to get this type of “think outside the box” marketing approach, but still in all, it’s there for the taking.

Q.) How many times have you ever gone to one those (supposedly) free 90 minute introductory workshops/seminars, that always wind up costing several thousand dollars for a select few.

If you get my drift. Or you’ve watched as some fairly unknown cable TV guru or guru-ette, extols the virtues of their particular approach to wealth building and you’ve thought to yourself, are they really making money with what they teach or are they making all that money from (strictly) teaching!

Surely that thought has crossed your mind (at least) once or twice, right?

Well how about an actual live demonstration (right now) by the author, that will hopefully demonstrate to you, the enormous untapped long term potential that’s available to you right now!

Meaning- the type of totally passive income that you can earn, anywhere from the low five figures, to the high six figures and beyond!

Off an information product that you didn’t even write! And you (literally)  paid no resale and or master resale rights for or any private label rights etc!

Sound pretty intriguing? Want to know more? Curious to know how these particular promotional sales ideas really work? Then by all means entrepreneur, please do read on:

 How Little Known Promotional Sales Ideas Can Make You Lots Of Money!

As some of you may already know, yours truly is the author of 160 page ‘how to’ text, that teaches the average lay person step by step how to find (and or) create investment grade owner financed (aka) privately held Real Estate notes.

That are secured by (preferably) single family owner owner occupants and or duplexes, that are used as rental properties.

These prime investment grade notes, are annually bought & sold by the billions, by large well financed private institutional investors.

And the way my particular program works is this; my 160 page offline hard cover workbook, teaches you (my 100% commission only) bird dog referral agent.

how to: either find this existing investment grade notes or how to create your own, by helping home owners sell their home using the ‘owner financing’ method.

Then you/we help them liquidate (sell) all or part of their Real Estate secured note for cash. Usually within 60 days or less, once the transaction is actually complete and all pertinent legal documents are recorded at the local court house, where the property is actually located.

In reality, our institutional lenders write all the checks, and 95% of the time that includes all or 95% of any agreed upon closings costs.

The  two of us split the difference between what our institutional investors are willing to pay and the actual price that our customers agree to, minus any and all competition.

Now to the good part. Her’s where you as a savvy entrepreneur can cash in, without becoming a ‘bird dog’ referral agent or without writing one single word of text!

Some of already discovered from a previous post, how you can sell or giveaway my free nine page special report on powerful back end marketing.

1.) You were told to (either) sell it on ebay and keep 100% of the upfront profits! Your welcome! you get the cash, and yours truly gets the massive free viral exposure!

2.) You can use it as free upsell bonus or package it along with digital information products and sell or give it away etc., to increase your opt ins.

And you already know that my 160 page ‘how to’ text, currently retails for anywhere between a low of $37 -$99 dollars.

Just depending on where and who you purchase it from.

Here’s the real point, because on average (only) about two percent of the people that get exposed to it, will actually produce a bankable transaction.

That’s why you need tons of 100% commission only referral agents to make it worthwhile! So any serious information seller (including) on or offline marketers, that will agree in writing to selling and or giving away at least 250,000 of my text or more.

They can then either sell at any price above the $13 dollars hard cost, that it takes to produce it and keep 100% of every thing above whatever their actual real life printing costs are!

Because (as you know) two percent of 250,000 equals 5,000 100% commission only bird dogs! (250,000 x .02% =5,000)

Those 5,000 agents will produce the typical bankable deal, that nets (on average) about a $1,500 dollar spread. They get $750 (minus their actual cost to produce the transaction) and yours truly gets the other $750 in gross profits!

Here’s your part in this, as more and more eyeballs (savvy marketer) read this blog.

Some of you (make that) about two percent of you already know someone that currently earns six figures per year or more, that’s in the ‘how to’ information publishing business.

When they agree in writing to carry my test (on or offline), every time i gross the typical $750 dollars or X. because you introduced us, you get half of my half, for as long as the arrangement remains in tact!

Is It Worth It To You To Do A Little Non Techie Bookmarking?

Think about it for a second, you gross $350 dollars or half of my half per transaction  for the life of my arrangement with your contact!

Just because you forwarded a few eyeballs to this post or posted it on your FB page or bookmarked on Digg or stumbleupon etc.

Or simply made a few phone calls etc. But you already read that previously, did you not? So why all this fuss?

Well because, yours truly just happens to have a companion offline 9139 page) hard cover text, called ‘How To Make A Marketable Difference!’

And it covers a ton of proven non techie marketing strategies that will help my ‘bird dogs’ be more successful for less!

And seems it currently retails for $139 big ones.

And (on average) about 35% of the people that get a hold of my 160 page ‘how to text’, eventually upsell to my $139 dollar marketing text.

Well how about you do the math! Thirty percent (30%) of  5,000 men & women that actually does business, equals 1,500 sales at $139 each!

Yea buddy! That’s right, (there’s nothing wrong with your math!) that equals an additional $208,000 thousand in gross profits! (1,500 x $139 =$208,000)

So hopefully now, you can see why it’s more than worth it to me, for your ‘how to’ publisher connection to keep 100% of the 160 page ‘how to’ text gross front end profits!

And why you deserve 50% of my half on each transaction and yours truly being (oh so) content to pocket 100% of the back end sales on the $139 marketing text!

Q.) Is that the kind of promotional sales ideas, that can get you really excited or what? If so, please Digg or tweet this. Thanks!

Why excellent customer service                                                            You don’t really have to ask how and why excellent customer service  can andwill add an extra 25% more gross profit to your bottom line do you?

For ex; when was the last time you or a friend were treated to a nice calorie rich continental breakfast or a hearty lunch that was sponsored by (paid for) by one of the places that you frequently do business with.

It certainly won’t hurt your chances for long term success; if you can inexpensively generate long term customer loyalty, by applying (low cost) proven customer service tips and strategies.

Let the following five proven customer service tips help you take a giant step towards inexpensively accomplishing that goal.

Why Excellent Customer Service Matters… (And Five Incredibly Simple Ways To Make It Payoff!)

1.) Proven customer service tip # one: Can you remember the last time one of the main places that you frequently do business with gave you a nice customer achievement or customer recognition award?

Think about the last time you were inside someone’s business and saw a picture of that months “customer of the month” or quarter?

Think about how much more powerful that recognition would be, if the person featured, just happens to be a successful small business as well?

Maybe they can spot light your business on their blog as well.

2.) Proven customer service tip # two: Your long term business prosperity will be greater enhanced any time your business openly recognizes or acknowledges your customer and clients major personal events (such as) wedding anniversaries, birthdays, recent newborns, retirements and or  promotions etc.

Or other business promotions etc.

3.) Proven customer service tips # three: This next one is huge. Does it make sense for you or one of your top joint venture partners to periodically sponsor special one -three day seminars or workshops once every month (or quarter) that addresses your customer most pressing needs or issues.

If for example, your JV partner happens to specialise in a subject that really concerns your customer/client base, offer them two complimentary tickets at special discounted rate (if not for free) in order to attend this offline event.

You could also send them a link to attend a special “No holds barred” no questions barred free online webinar that answers and addresses these and other major concerns.

This type of low cost high powered customer service (power) move really helps to position your company as the one to do business with.

4.) Proven customer service tip # four: As often as you can and (as soon) as you can, have all your staff that frequently comes in contact with your customers and clients, get on a first name basis with them asap.

Because the sooner they are on a first name basis with (both) them, their spouse (and or) significant other and kids etc.

The faster your valued customer base will feel more comfortable repurchasing and referring your business, product or service to their valuable inner circle and contacts.

5.) Proven customer service tip # five: Have you ever heard the phrase “tell them why and they will buy?” It’s true.

That simply means, whenever possible, let your customers and clients in on the how’s and the why’s of your business philosophy.

Take the time to properly educate your customers (and employees and associates) on the methods to your madness.

Because rarely if ever do your competitors (big or small) ever do it.It will pay huge dividends over time.

While these five incredibly simple (not to mention) non techie, mega proven customer service tips will (over time) of course,  add significantly to your bank account.

And obviously, used as a single strategy here or there, you don’t receive the overall total effect, but used collectively, your bank account will surely grow!No matter what particular niche market is.

And you won’t have to wonder how or why excellent customer service puts up to 25% more gross profit in your pocket now!
