Are You Hungry Or Just Chasing A Dream?

Monday, November 30, 2009

KeyHave you ever stopped to wonder why you didn’t follow your dreams when you were young?  Perhaps you spent a lot of time listening to your parents or just the peir pressure that is so strong at the younger ages.  I know when I told my parents what I wanted to do, they always told me you can’t make money doing that.

My point is, don’t you owe it yourself to pursue your dreams and not allow others to direct you with their opinions of what they feel you should be doing with your life.  Over the years affiliate marketing has been tagged as a pyramid scheme and many other illegal titles.  Again this comes from other peoples insecurities and stories that they have heard.  People like to push their beliefs on friends and family when they don’t understand or have an interest in what you are doing.  Parents are a good example of this.  Which drives me back to the question, what dreams did you have for yourself?  Why would you think it’s to late?  Everything you do and think is based on a belief system that has been programed in you over the years.  It is hard to break the code so that you can think freely and achieve your dreams, but it takes will and desire.  Everyone has this ability, it is just stronger in some than others.  Why not start a home based business? Did someone tell you it couldn’t be done?  Who are you going to believe, you or them?  Before you can acheive you must first believe in yourself.

Quit allowing other people to mold your beliefs and take control of your life.  You owe it yourself and your family to be successful.  You have to want it bad enough, so what are you going to do so you get hungry for it?

What Are You Doing About It? Make Your Business Grow

Have you ever wondered why some people can’t get their home business to any level of success?  It’s a matter of priority.  Do you settle, or do you want to excel?  If you think that you can survive a little longer the way things are going right now, so I’ll worry about it later, then you have already settled.

What is it you really want out of life?  more money, to travel or a new home?  There is only one way to succeed and that is to do something about it.  Why is it that there are certain things in life we just automatically excel at?  Is it because of confidence, will or just luck?  I can assure you it’s not luck , unless you win the lottery.  It is confidence for sure.  If there is ever a goal in life you wish to succeed at, your confidence level is effected by your understanding and level of expertise in that area.  If you have already found success in something, then it is easy to have more positive results in that field.  If you have not, it seems like a huge wall to get to the other side.  It is a matter of will if you want it bad enough.  Think about something you really wanted in life to accomplish.  What did you do to get there?  Now that you are there, it is easy to do it over and over again isn’t?  You can do the same with your financial future if you put the same efforts into this desire.  You have to tune out the people who try to bring you down, and focus on the results you wish to have.  Don’t worry about how you will do it, just what you want and go for it.  When you focus on the how first, you may give up to soon if you think it’s to much work.  So always focus on the what you want and you will find a way.

I hope this lesson in life is helpful.  Anything is possible, but it is always based on the level of importance you place on something along with the amount of effort you use to drive to the goal.  Nothing just happens on its own, so take my advice and do something about it!

The Bottom Line Of Success, Taking Action

actionHave you ever wondered why so many people fail at their home business?  There is such a simple reason, it isn’t even funny.  Are you ready…it’s called taking action.  This is the key to success, without it you have nothing.

I can describe it as this, if you don’t turn the key to start your car, it will not start.  It’s the same with anything you do in life.  If you want to make money in the real world, you have to take action or nothing happens.  Every day you have to market your product, you have to get your name out there.  Make a video, write a blog, find your niche and run with it.  It is the only way to make it happen and make it fun.  If you find the joy in what you are doing, it will make your life so much easier and make you so much happier.  When you are happy, it makes it so much easier to do what you need to do to get to the top.  Affiliate marketing is only as hard as you make it, test everything you do, see what works.  With the technology of the internet, there really is no excuse for not being able to test.  There are free tools, and paid tools, it’s what works for you.

No matter what you do in this world, the only way to get from point A to B is to do something.  Most people don’t do what they need to do when they don’t understand, or are afraid to take the first step.  Make every day a productive day, do something about what you want in life by doing something, simply take action, you’ll be glad you did.

change1I’ve been marketing for a while now and try to find new ideas and niches for my home business that are not traveled.  It seems that so many people use the same techniques over and over again to interest you into the business.

Here are some items that are over used that I feel can be put to bed finally.

1. Stop using the bugging friends and family story.

2. Stop using the cold calling scenario

3. Stop saying the business builds itself plug and play

4. Stop saying that there is no more phone calls.

There are more examples, however, these are the big four I see over use of.  Let me explain, since marketing on the Internet has become key to the 21st century, affiliate marketers now use PPC adds, Blog sites and e mail marketing to name a few.  The cold calling and bugging friends and family is a thing of the past, and everyone knows this.  Stop telling people what they already know.  The next are all just plain myths of making money.  No business works on plug and play, and if you never intend on calling people, you’ll never sponsor any prospects to your business.  There is still and always will be worked involved with running a home based business of this nature.  It’s true that people are looking for the lazy rich lifestyle, but people need to realize this doesn’t exist.  It is false to think it does.  This is why so many marketers enter a business and fail.  Advertise real and original scenarios to solve the customers problems.  People need to know they must work to succeed.

Come up with new ideas to market your business, people keep seeing the same thing over and over again.  What people need is something new and original, and since so many internet marketers keep doing the rerun marketing concept, you are at an advantage if you do something new, go for it.

Here’s A Video That Went All Wrong!

I was screwing around, and came up with this crazy video about enjoying life before it’s to late.  It’s all about having a home business!  It’s all wrong, but it was so fun to do.

changeHave you ever heard the term,”‘kicking a dead horse”?  This is what I’m getting at with this blog, we’re all guilty of it, and the success of our home based business is reliant on us excepting it.  Here is what I’m saying in short, if the marketing concept you are using isn’t making money, change it.

I’m not really saying to dump the marketing style, but take another look at it.  Why is it not working?  Change parts of it until you see results.  If you never see results, then move on to another style of marketing.  You’d be surprised at what a small change here or there may do for you.  Look at PPC marketing for instance.  A low click rate, may be a bad advertisement that is not catching the eye of what is being searched for in the search engine.  Maybe you have a lot of clicks, and no opt in.  This may tell you the landing page is not doing its job.  Maybe the wording, the video, or the landing page itself has nothing to do with the question the person searching the net is looking for.  In this case change your landing page to hold the interest.  This concept works with any marketing approach, but you have to use common sense to make it work.

Remember there is a lot of competition, so you have to think fast to get ahead.  Treat it like you are in hurry, you want to beat the competitor to the punch.  Tweak, change or whatever you want to call it.  If you are getting no results, quit “kicking a dead horse”, and change what you are doing.  This is how you get results!

The Video Tool Of The Century, Affiliate Marketing Power

eyejotDo you ever get opt ins that accessed your affiliate marketing site that you can’t call because they are in a different time zone many hours off of your own?  You don’t have to fear this any more, the problem is solved.

You can now use video to send to your prospects to your home based business.  Thanks to EyeJot, you can now just record a video and send it on the spot.  It’s great because you can make it personal and talk right to the person using their name.  It also let’s you know when they watched the e-mail so you can send them another while you know they are on line.  The best way to build your business is to catch people while they are in the process of looking at business opportunities.  If you wait you could miss the moment and find them at a bad time.  Timing is everything.  The personal video is also great because it is special to them, and will make them feel more important.  It is also a good system because some people get defensive on the phone when they think they are being sold on something.  It will help tare down the wall, so eventually will be able to talk to them.

Marketing on line is always changing, and keeping you ears open to new techniques is so important.  If you catch it in the beginning, people will be impressed with you and this could cause interest in you and your business.

bluevideoiconIt is important to stay up on the latest technology when it comes to marketing your home based business.  Affiliate Marketing can become a breeze when you just stay in touch with the current trends and utilize them.

The video is a very common use item recently, not so much in the earlier years of marketing, but there is so much a person can do to take advantage of the video.  There is a site I utilize called Eye Jot Video Email where you can send an email to someone who has just opted into your website.  What an easy way to utilize the video to make money!  You can make a video on the spot with a web cam.  Personalize it by talking to the person that came to your site and saying thanks, with a quick message to them about a webinar or whatever else you would like to promote.  If you can get them right after they have opted in, you can really catch their attention while they have you fresh in mind.  There is so much more being developed all the time with technology, you just have to grab a hold and do it.  You can really impress people with this kind of stuff!

The next time you want to interact with someone in the wee hours of the night without a phone call, send them a video.  If you know they are on line, this is perfect, they can check you out without disturbing anyone who may be sleeping

fire-you-bossDid you know that one of the best things you can do for yourself is start your own home based business?  A lot of people are asking, why would I want to do that?  It’s to much work.  I will tell you why you should consider affiliate marketing.

Right now, a home based business can be your best opportunity for a tax shelter.  With all of the lay offs and company closings, more people are looking for new ways to make money, and this is the best way.  It is also an opportunity to have more time to be with your family and friends.  It is a chance to save money on gas from long commutes to work, which will also help you with the wear and tare on your car.  The potential to make incredible money is also a huge benefit to this kind of genre.  Just think about how you will feel if you don’t have a boss any longer.  No more getting up for work in the early mornings before the sun come up.  You can now wake up at your own leisure and comfortably enjoy your day.  You will still need to work, but you’ll throw away all the stress!

There are more reasons than what I have listed here, so just think about it and fill it in with your dreams.  There is so much more to life than answering to a boss, so it’s up to you.

Business Basics

business-plan1

Do you have a great idea for a new product or service to offer but don’t know how to start a business? Opening a new business is easier than most people think, and proper planning will ensure that it becomes a success. The cornerstone of any successful business is the development of a comprehensive business plan.

A business plan outlines the essentials of running your business, such as how your company will operate, start-up expenses and marketing strategies. Once you have laid all of this out, it is relatively cheap and simple to apply for a business license with your state. This is the groundwork for your business, but you will obviously have to work to get financing and break into the marketplace.
