How to Strike it Rich in 2011

 hey I just wanted to let you know about a great article I found here is just a sample of it:


How many of us have made the following type of comments: ‘Why didn’t I buy a great domain name back in 1996?’,  ’Why didn’t I start a money making website in 1999?’ , ‘This sucks! All the good ideas are already taken!!’ Sure, the people who did those things are wealthy now, but while some people complained about missing the boat, others have built a new one and the smart people got on board. For example, in 2004 Mark Zuckerberg started Facebook and then in 2007 another gentelman created Zynga (owner of popular Facebook apps such as Farmville). Trust me there will always be room for new innovations.

5 Keys to Capturing Prospective Buyers

By: Allyn

Spring has sprung. The birds are singing as they busily build nests and do their mating dances. Yeah, it won't be long before the flowers bloom, and grass starts growing. You know what that means...grass needs mowing. When you parked the riding mower last fall, you knew that it would be a miracle if you could get it through another summer. You're going to need to replace old "Betsy" sooner or later, and start thinking about the features you want the next mower to have.

Well, you haven't tried starting the old mower, but hey, it's raining cats and dogs outside. With nothing better to do, you head for the mall and find yourself among a line of shiny lawn mowers with a wide variety of prices and features. What are the advantages of each one compared to the difference in costs?

Yep, not every customer that walks through your door is ready to make a purchase. Maybe they're still in the "thinking about it" stage. Yeah, when you think long enough, you usually talk yourself into doing it. That's why it's important to treat every customer's question with respect. You never know when a properly answered question will lead to a sale.

Here are some tips to keep in mind for effectively answering customer questions:

1. A Question is the Sign of a Potential Sale.
Yeah, if a customer is taking the time to look you up and ask questions, you're dealing with a high level of interest. Don't take it lightly. A prompt and quick response laced with the added benefits of the product will go a long way toward closing a sale.

2. Make it Easy to Ask A Question.
There's nothing more frustration than having a simple question and having to move heaven and earth to get an answer. Make it easy for your customers to ask questions. Make your website question friendly and include a phone number with all of your sales material.

3. Organize - Set up a Frequently Asked Question File
What questions have you emailed answers to sixteen times this week? Keep a file with those repeat questions. You'll be able to copy and paste the answers into responses. Hey, your customer will be happy and you can spend time doing something else. Everyone wins!

4. Get Back - Quickly
How many times have you shopped around while waiting for someone to get back to you? Yeah, it's easier than ever on the web. Customer attention spans are ever shortening with the vast global competition at their fingertips. Don't dilly dally - get back to them pronto!

5. Make Every Question a Sales Opportunity
When someone asks you a question, you've got their attention! They're waiting for an answer that is important to them. Yeah, it's the perfect opportunity to expand your response to include benefits of the purchase.

Questioning customers wear a badge that says, "Buyer on Board!" Read it and pay attention. Often a little nudge will mean a sale to tally at the day's end. Think of it like this...learning to effectively answer customer questions is a low-cost and effective way to boost your profits this year!

Allyn has spent over 24 years helping businesses like yours find new customers and increase sales to current customers.

YouTube's Radical Redesign Positions Google To Be Your New TV


BY Kit EatonFri Dec 2, 2011

new youtube
Goodbye cute cat videos, hello cash cow. If browsing YouTube for funny videos is part of your Friday (or Monday, or Tuesday, or ... you get the point) morning routine then you'll already have had a surprise: Gone is YouTube's old cluttered image, with ill-defined boxes of widgets that seemingly blended into other nearby sections of the page. Gone is its use of large sections of white page. Instead, in their place, there's a smooth gray-tinted look and feel to Google's prime video site, and a massive emphasis on "channels" and curated categories.
Google announced last month that it was going to source more professionally made content as well as flow more of its content into Channels--thematically linked sections of the site that would feel a little more like your standard cable TV box perhaps (sports channels, news channels, science...and so on). And it's emphasized on its new blog posting that this redesign is all about that notion. "We want to make it easier for you to find and keep tabs of what you want to watch," it suggests, and glancing down the dark-gray column on the left of the new page that certainly seems true: If you're in the mood for vid clips about music, sports, comedy, science, gaming, and a long list of other topics, they're now collected into an easy-to-access channel.
But this box is also customizable: Sign in to YouTube and you can arrange your own list, alongside Google's curated ones, and the clips it's recommended for you--Google handily points out that you can "even link your YouTube account to Google+ and Facebook to see what your friends are sharing" (and it's notable that Google's falling out with Twitter seems to also extend to this new social link).
Uploaders also benefit from the Channel-centric redesign, and, the site tells us: "As different uploaders have different goals, we've created new Channel templates to meet your needs whether you produce one video a week or have thousands of videos for a fan to browse." To that end Google's noting it's incorporated "feedback from the 'Cosmic Panda' Channels and Watch experiment" (okay, perhaps cute animal videos are not going away) and that it's "excited to present" its range of improvements that also includes "a way to keep your audience engaged even when you don't have new uploads." This last bit seems a very professional-sounding idea, designed to appeal to keen content generators.
What Google is trying to do to every video that's uploaded is to squeeze it into a channel right from the start--to box it, package it, line it up with similar peers and so on, and to encourage uploaders to think of their audience in the same way that a TV channel may.
And from a user endpoint, the goal is even more obvious: By banishing the chaotic, eclectic colors, segments and detail of the previous design, and making it easier to stay on video topic as well as keeping up with video recommendations from your social network, it's trying to keep viewers on the page for longer. The experience is simply more pleasant and easier to navigate. That's also the job of the new psuedo news-feed segment on the home page--a window that contains content, social activity info, and so on. Like the updating news feed of Facebook or Twitter's rolling updates it creates a sense of dynamism, change...and some detail that pops up in this window is bound to catch the viewer's eye and entice them to engage with the site in some way, perhaps watching one more video.
In the end it's all about money. The more users engage with the site, the more eyes-on-advertising time they give to Google. And by aligning itself as a sort of desktop equivalent to a cable TV, with easily accessible Channels of similar content (albeit a mix of user-submitted and professionally created video) Google is trying to compete with TV on more equal footing. In the light of the redesign the previous YouTube UI looked amateurish, child-like even. What it has now is perhaps the same sort of simple yet powerful interface that users will be familiar with from apps like Instagram or Twitter--much simpler, more accessible, and thus more powerful.
Which makes us wonder if Google has plans to bring this sort of radical makeover to its other services. It recently toyed with the black Google bar on its search page, and has ditched it after a user revolt. And for years Google's look and feel has felt a little stuck in the past, with a very text-centric approach and a graphical style that seemed to have been drawn up by over-enthusiastic engineers rather than artists. Is Google actually growing up, realizing it needs to refine its offerings (as demonstrated by its recent shuttering of Google Labs projects) and add a degree of visual spit and polish that some of its rivals have long surpassed Google in? If you are in a particularly positive frame of mind, you may even see this as proof Google's future Google TV offerings may be a serious entry to what may be a very big connected TV market in 2012.

What I found when I checked out ViralURL.

So you have finally stepped into the world of making money online. You too, like the others, have decided to start with the affiliate programs. Also, you must have heard that it's not a big deal to make good money with affiliate marketing, provided you choose the right programs and do some strategic planning while promoting your affiliate products. So far so good.

Whether you are promoting other people's products or promoting your own products - that doesn't matter because after all it is nothing but your own business and your means to earn good money. So whichever be your case, I am sure you would not want to leave money on the table and invite others to steal your share of profit.

Even though the industry of affiliate marketing is pretty competitive but if you are cautious and are strategic in your marketing techniques then, it could be very profitable for you.

Take a close look at the industry, you will see that not every one who gets into affiliate marketing is successful. People who are doing well leave no room for failure and take all security measures and understand its importance.

Yes! Security is one of the key factors in affiliate marketing. If you do not adopt proper security measures, then your business will be at high risk. One of the most important way to restore security is to protect your affiliate links. Do not take them for granted. A bit of carelessness on your part in regards to affiliate links may cost you a lot of dollars.

Do you know the long complicated links that you send to your prospective customers not only look convoluted but they can create a lot of problems too! If you send such an affiliate link to your customers, then the smart ones will definitely figure out that you are promoting someone else's product and they would rather visit the parent company. Also, if your link does not function then your customers have to type a really long URL into the browser, which will definitely put him or her off.

You could be a victim of even a worse situation. What if some devious Internet pirates steal your affiliate links and replace them with theirs. If they do that, then you get no commission at all.

Did I scare you off with all of the above possibilities? Well, that certainly wasn't my intention. I just wanted to open your eyes and state facts that actually happen in the world of Internet. It happened with me until I came across ViralURL , that brought a revolution to my online ventures.

So, if you are not getting the desired results out of your affiliate marketing, don't lose hope. There's definitely a remedy to this problem and that is ViralURL

Do I hear you asking, what is it and how can it help in averting any adverse situation for an affiliate marketer like me?
Be patient and read on, if you love your business.

ViralURL is a link shortener & cloaker that protects you in the truest sense. There may be many unethical people lurking around, who might play with your affiliate links by cutting them off or replacing them with their own etc. How much effort you put in towards building your business and advertising your business, if your links are tampered with, then all your hard work will be rendered useless.

In order to avoid such a rip off, ViralURL gives you full protection and sees to it that your affiliate links never get exposed to others.

So save yourself from getting ripped. Get all the commissions to your account that you rightfully deserve. All this is made possible by ViralURL

It is a blessing for every affiliate marketer like you and me, who wants to achieve success in their endeavor.

Is ViralURL limited to only link protection?

NO!

It does much much more than that. Let's see what ViralURL can do for us:

*ViralURL helps us in protecting commission.
*ViralURL helps in building mailing lists.
*ViralURL helps in tracking statistics.
*ViralURL helps in earning extra ad credits.

In short, ViralURL allows us to create massive business leverage.
I don't see any negative aspect associated with ViralURL. All you have to do is join it for free, then cloak your links, promote them and see your business soaring higher and higher.

You can get all detailed information about the program from the ViralURL site at http://vur.me/degan2012. There, you can find several unsolicited testimonials from various users of ViralURL. So if you want to protect your business and see your earnings grow, try ViralURL. You have nothing to lose with it.

Product Review: Totally Tweetable Marketing System

Totally Tweetable.com is one of those WOW sites that looks like it has been the brainchild of some very serious marketing minds. It is combining the powerful concepts of member based email marketing and combines it with some powerful viral techniques, including Social Media and blogging. Wow!!



I joined and took the upgrades - I figured, they offer a money back guarantee so why not..? You are not in any way required to take the upgrades to get the benefits of the site. However, they do multiply the benefits out by a few hundred times I have found, plus the fee is pretty small for the extra exposure you get... so I grabbed it.

What a concept - I must say.
The world of marketing online has been dying slowly for a while now as people are fed up with 'opting in' and getting mail boxes filled with nothing of any meaning. Spam is the killer.

So this system takes the traditional email marketing and modernizes it and then blows the roof of your exposure by adding in a pretty neat VIRAL twist.

http://totallytweetable.com/?vip=8052

This benefits WHATEVER you promote.

You get to tap into the power of hundreds of active twitter accounts, and blog readers and send your message across the entire network.

http://totallytweetable.com/?vip=8052

There has never been another site that does this that I have ever seen. It is being hailed as 'Social Evolution' where by you can almost 'share' the social media connections of others. In fact... I think it ius going to be HUGE.


My vote is that this site is going to put a lot of dough in my pocket over the years to come.


The power of being able to reach out to people is not to be overlooked... The system makes that reaching easy. I, for one, have ALWAYS wanted to have other people send out tweets for me... And do you know what - this system has a guaranteed 200 people who will be tweeting for you, every time you send out!! But...  THE TOP LEVEL IS WHERE TO BE FOR SERIOUS MARKETERS - A GUARANTEED 3000 PEOPLE TO TWEET FOR YOU COMES WITH THE PACKAGE... Whoa!

5 Ways to Build Your Presence on the Internet

By: Jinger Jarrett

Branding. It is probably one of the most effective, yet least understood, techniques for building your presence on the internet.

By branding yourself as an expert on your topic, you can easily increase your traffic to your site, as well as sales. By drawing potential

customers to you, you'll decrease your marketing time while still increasing your sales.

Traffic you receive by branding yourself is targeted traffic. The traffic is targeted because visitors are looking for what you have to offer.

Your first step in branding yourself should be to choose the right keywords. By choosing the right keywords, you can optimize your site for

the search engines so others find you. This will also help you organize your information better to create products and services that reflect

your area of expertise.

Once you have optimized your website for the search engines, you need to submit it to the major search engines. With Google, you'll want to

create a site map. A sitemap can help you get your site spidered quickly, usually within 24 hours.

Submit your site to the major search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN, then move on. Next, you need to work on branding yourself.

Here are four other ways you can build your brand and establish yourself as an expert:

1. Write articles
This is the most important step. You're getting your name out there. Before sending out articles though, make sure you understand how to

write good articles. Otherwise, your articles won't get accepted, much less read.

2. Write books and Ebooks
Sites like Lulu, http://www.lulu.com, make it easier than ever for you to get your manuscripts published quickly. Many big name writers

have used self publishing to get their names out there. You can too.

Lulu will make it easy for you to offer your manuscript in both digital and print format.

3. Build links back to your site
Find both general and specific directories to submit your site to. Add your link, or exchange links of linking is offered.

Don't waste your time on sites that don't have a links page. They probably don't use linking to build traffic, and you'll be ignored.

4. Participate in forums
Find two to three good forums on your topic and participate. Ask questions, answer them, and always include a link to your website.

Be careful here though; you don't want to spend too much time marketing on forums. If you do, it will take time away from product creation,

as well as your other marketing techniques.

The first step in building your business should be in building your brand. By building your business and building your brand, you'll get more

traffic and more targeted traffic. This will increase your conversion.

Ultimate Safelist Survival: What is a safelist anyway?

Ultimate Safe list Survival: What is a safe list anyway?

What is a Safe list

Basically a safe list is a gathering of like minded individuals who have
agreed to exchanges ads. You agree to receive ads from all the others
members in exchange for the opportunity to send your own. This concept
has many advantages, here's a couple of them.

The advantages of safe list marketing

For one it's spam free as people have to double opt-in to the safe list and
thereby agreeing to receive your ads, should some nutter decide that the
safe list mail is spam anyway it's not really your problem as the mail is not
sent from your email address or server. Actually this is the origin of the
name, a safe list is a closed community where it is safe for members to
exchange ads.

The second advantage is quite obvious but many people fail to see this,
what does all safelist members have in common? They have something to
sell, but they have not advanced far enough in their internet marketing
carreer to dismiss a very mundane task as posting to safelist is. That
means that if you have a product, report, ebook, income opportunity etc.
that can help people on the way to internet glory, the average safelist
user is an excellent prospect for you.

Why I will always use safelists

I could probably make do without safelists but I sure wont. Safelist are a
starting point for many newbie marketers and picking those up as
subscribers and customers can be very profitable e.g. they do not own
every product out there and they do not know everything, meaning that
you have plenty of stuff to sell them. You can see this as opposed to
getting *Mike Filsaime* on your list, when your initial giggling wears off
you will probably realize that Mike owns everything you promote and if he
doesn't he will probably create his own version anyway...

Mike Filsaime and safelists

Speaking of *Mike Filsaime* did you know he started his internet
marketing career using safelists? I have listened to several conference
calls where Mike explains how he built a list of *7000* members using
nothing but safelists and that list netted him $7000 a month. In fact Mike
and his "intern" Jason Dinner are still regular safelist user although I
believe they pay people to do the dirty work nowadays...

...imagine that, paying people to do your safelist posting, I'm pretty sure
Jason and Mike don't find safelists useless!

Twitter Marketing To Boost Your Business Growth



As the world’s second most popular social networking site, Twitter is a marketers’ dream.

However, some people still see Twitter as a teenager’s platform to share what they had for lunch and what they bought at the mall. The stigma around Twitter is that it’s all twaddle and nonsensical conversation, without any real-world bearing.

The majority of the Twitter users are far from that very small portion. From some of the top Fortune-500 companies and internationally ranked businesses, Twitter is a multifaceted media platform that provides marketers the ability to engage in real-time dialogue with customers, promote products and create buzz.

1. Have an Ear to the Chatter

The Internet is king. Whatever needs to be said, posted, shared or argued about is online. The world’s pulse is rhythmically beating to the tune of wi/fi. Twitter’s beauty is the fact that it’s an instantaneous connection to the collective conversation.

Twitter offers an incredible insight into what your customers, competitors and colleagues are thinking, saying and feeling about you, your products and your image.

2. Connect with customers

Twitter is the equivalent of sitting down with all of your customers at once over a cup of coffee. The intimacy and relationship building is what separates Twitter from any other social media available.

At its root, Twitter is a conversational tool.

Pose questions to your customers. Challenge the Twitterverse to improve your latest product. Listen to what they have to say about your customer service representatives. Provide a safe place for your customers to register complaints and genuine feedback.

3. Connect with businesses

Create new B2B connections through your Twitter page. The best way to begin these new relationships is to follow industry leaders and companies that you respect. Engage in thoughtful Twitter-banter, and as often as you can, ReTweet relevant Tweets.

Twitter broadens your scope: you’ll stumble upon industries that you may have never considered as a potential partner or inspiration for business practices.

4. Promote products

Though this list seems to be in no apparent order, but it rather is. These four reasons outline why marketers need to have a Twitter presence, but it’s also a blueprint for success and how you need to approach your account.

Promotion or creating a buzz should be the very last thing you tackle in the Twittersphere. After you’ve focused on listening and connecting, then promoting your products becomes a part of the conversation rather than a blatant or cheesy attempt to drive sales.

Twitter is an on-going conversation. Would you ever ask a new acquaintance to borrow their car on the very first meeting?
