Are You A Winning Failure?

In all of my years of living I have experienced both winning and loosing. Even though my wins out weigh my failures, for some reason the failures tend to stick in my mind. I remember when I first got married I took pride in being a provider of my household. Within seven months of my marriage I lost my job. I struggled to survive and bring in money for my familly doing odd jobs until I found something else to bring in the income we once had. As time past, I could not find a job to make up for the loss of my income. Eventually, we lost the brand new house we were living in. I felt like a failure. Take away a man’s abillity to be a provider and theres a good chance you will destroy the inner man that drives him. After getting over that season in my life, by the grace of God I managed purchase FIVE more houses in a seven year span. Just win I saw myself as a winning failure I learned that failure is not loosing, but failing is refusing to get back up and try again. I heard a great man say once that failure is not failure but its the increase of wisdom in knowing what won’t work. One of the big things that hinders most of us from experiencing victory in accomplishing our goals is that we never develop the mindset to finish what we start. This is critical because along the pathway of reaching our goals we tend to run into road blocks and unsuspected challenges that if not dealt with properly, they have the abillity to crush our desires.

Today I want to welcome a guest blogger by the name of Bob Cox. Bob is a great motivator in pushing you to reach your goals. How to deal with obstacles that pop up along the way and press pass problems to reach prosperity. Put on your seatbelt and lock in. I think you will enjoy this one and learn something to make sure that this year puts you way past where you were last year this same time.

God Bless!!

5 Keys to Unlock Your “Completion Mentality” - the Door to Your Success

By Bob Cox

It is easy to get caught up in the supposed urgency of a situation. You start thinking, “I must get this done NOW or else.” But there are few times when you must do a task NOW. More often than not, it is a matter of making a good decision about when to do it.

Let’s say you discover that you have put about 5,000 miles on your car since your last oil change. You need to schedule an oil change. But you don’t need to do so this minute. The car won’t stop running right away. You have some time.

You know that it is a good idea to change your oil to keep your vehicle running as efficiently as possible. But the oil change is not so urgent that you must drop everything and run off to your neighborhood service station.

Keeping your car’s engine running properly is your motivation to change the oil regularly. By working this task into your schedule, your car will run smoothly, the engine will last longer, you won’t have to buy a new car for several years. If you didn’t have that motivation, you might push that non-urgent task to the bottom of your to-do list. You might even forget about it. It becomes non-urgent and non-important.

Your long-term goals are “non-urgent,” just like that oil change. But, like that oil change, they are important. You just need to find a way to motivate yourself to add those goal-setting tasks to your schedule and take action to complete them.

Here are five Motivation Keys you can use to activate your “completion mentality” and unlock the door to success:

KEY #1: KNOW WHY YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL

Ask yourself about the “whys” behind your goals. Perhaps you are a runner and your goal is to win the next Boston Marathon. Why do you want to accomplish this goal? Is it the health benefits of getting into shape? Is it the possibility of meeting new people? Or do you simply want to be able to say you participated? No matter what your motivation, you still have to endure months of disciplined, rigorous training.

But picking the right motivation is crucial to whether you actually follow through. If your motivation is to get into shape, for instance, you might find it difficult to push past the point of “being in shape.” After all, you’ll be fit as a fiddle long before you are actually ready to compete. If you hit a snag - maybe a week of being sick with a cold - it will be easy to fall behind on that goal. “I’m already fit,” you might think. “Why push myself to train for a marathon when I’m already in shape?”

KEY #2: HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS

A personal sense of accomplishment is very motivating in and of itself.

About two years ago, I set out to get a private pilot’s license. Ever since I was a child, I dreamed of taking off into a clear blue sky. Once I turned that dream into a goal, I achieved it in eight months.

I do not come from an aeronautical or engineering background, so learning this new skill was incredibly challenging for me. However, I was highly motivated by my own personal expectations. And once I became a licensed private pilot, I was even more motivated to continue the process. (In flying we say, “Once you have your private pilot’s license, you now have a license to LEARN flying.”)

Challenges make us define our commitments and implement a “do what it takes” attitude. Stretching yourself expands your horizons.

I obtained my private pilot’s license after about 100 hours. I now have over 450 hours under my belt that include too many joyful memories to share in this message. Suffice it to say that none of those memories would have been possible had I not started with lessons… had I not kept going and going… and going. The simple desire to accomplish this lifelong goal was huge motivation for me, and it powered me forward.

Don’t underestimate the power of expectations. You have your own expectations of what you can accomplish. Plus, you have the combined expectations of your teachers, parents, friends, clients, employers, and colleagues. Research has shown that most people live up to these expectations. A sales manager who sets a higher standard than her counterpart will likely see greater production from her sales team than if she sets a lower standard. In other words, our motivation to meet the expectations of others - and those we have for ourselves - propels us to succeed.

KEY #3: KEEP UP A “CAN DO” ATTITUDE

Whatever you aspire to do, you must believe that you can do it. In reality, the bigger your goal, the bigger the obstacles you will face along the way. Having faith in yourself and your abilities is the key to success.

When you have a defeatist “I can’t do this” attitude, your negative expectations become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Sure, you may not be able to accomplish your goal right this second. But remind yourself that every goal is a journey, with many steps along the way.

Harris Rosen, one of the inspirations for my program, The Billionaire Way, started his career as a front desk clerk after graduating from a prestigious hospitality school. If he had not set about acquiring additional skills (learning everything about running a hotel, for example), he would not have become the owner of Rosen Hotels and Resorts, the largest privately held hotel chain in the southeastern United States.

I am sure Harris had mornings when he woke up with doubts. Had he succumbed to those negative thoughts, he never could have achieved his goal.

Fear and negativity limit your imagination and ability to “look outside the box.” Inspire and motivate yourself by maintaining a ” can do” attitude.

KEY #4: TAKE A LOOK AT THE LARGER PICTURE

Winning a sales contest or receiving a bonus is an incentive to achieve … but only in the short term. The key to sustaining your progress over the long haul is to have a larger picture of what you want to accomplish.

Let’s say your 2008 health goal is to lose 10 pounds. But that’s only a short-term, one-year goal. Your “larger picture” goal may be to keep healthy so you can live longer, which will allow you to spend more time with your spouse, children, and grandchildren. To travel the world like you always wanted to… to live out your retirement without heart problems or diabetes.

Focusing on the “larger picture” will get you over the inevitable low points you’ll encounter on your path to success.

KEY #5: TAKE ACTION

Only YOU can decide to be motivated. Nobody else has that power. Accomplishing your goals begins with your decision to take action. Yes, fear and lack of confidence can creep into your mindset. And, yes, those things can extinguish your motivation. Toss them out. Choose to be positive. Then take action. You’ll find that taking even a single small step toward accomplishing a goal will motivate you to take the next step.

You may be scared, but push on ahead into that joint venture or new job and see where it takes you. What’s the worst that can happen?

6 Motivating Questions to Ask Yourself

As you work toward your goals, ask yourself:

• Am I willing to challenge myself to reach this goal?
• Can I leverage my “ordinary” skills into extraordinary results?
• Do I know the “bigger picture” of what I want to achieve with this goal?
• Am I clear on why I want to accomplish this goal?
• Will I choose a “can do” attitude while pursuing this goal?
• Can I dig a little deeper to make this goal happen?

Answer these questions honestly and make a commitment to take action. This will put the “oil” in your motivational engine that will sustain your journey to success.

Let me guess…..your blog is not making you any money!!! How about, there is a big chance that no one even knows yoru blog exist!!! This means that all of the hard work and effort you put into creating great blog post and listing information that could really help others is not being noticed. Not only is it not being noticed, but its not making you any cash. This is a major problem.

Well….thanks to this dynamic system, there is a solution to your problems. You can get a “Completelly Ready To Monetize Blog with everything already included. If You Can Upload One File, you have what it takes to Build A Profitable Blog. With this system you will start earning in 7 days or less, as long as you can copy and paste and follow a simple video. How much easier can it get?

Imagine, your business is finally getting the attention it deserves. Or maybe your just getting started and looking to get branded quickly. With this system you will be known across the internet and in your niche circles in no time. Others will begin to look at you as a authoritative figure in your niche.

According to “Blog World”, 89% of companies surveyed say they think blogs will be more important in the next five years. Over 57 million Americans read blogs. 1.7 million American adults list making money as one of the reasons they blog. These are hardcore facts. If you were to ask yourself the same questions, you would probably be able to include yourself in these numbers.

Its pretty simple. I have taken all the risk of sampling this dynamic product that simplifies the process of not just creating a blog but getting it fully monetized. I must say that I was a little skeptical at first, but after saying my prayers I launched out on faith and hit the Buy Now button on a product that has literally gotten me some good attention. After all, you are reading this aren’t you?

Ok, lets look at it from another angle. If you were to start out blogging with a free service, most of them have a clause when you first sign up. The clause says something like this, “you may not use this system to create or sell products or services.” Daaaaah….anyone in business is either offering a service or offering a product. Now you can continue to use the service and promote your product or service. However, once the host provider finds out about your blog they will can you in a minute. I know what your saying……How do you know? Because it happened to me. I had a very nice looking, content rich blog site through a free service that I found. It took about 3 months before they found me and canned me. I was somewhat upset because I had some really good material that was posted and now I can’t even get to it. Its hard but fare, they tell you upfront in the registration agreement. You simply can not afford not to own your own blog.

I can honestly say that I have never come across a blog or blogging product that not only makes promises but over delivers. I promise you that once you see what this product can do you will be amazed and somewhat stunned at its ability. I’m still seeing its power and I have been using this product for about six months now. The funny thing is that even if I go days or weeks without posting, the way that the blog is configured it still attracts the attention of the search engines and demands my prospects to come a little closer.

7 Foolproof Ways to Increase Your Market Presence and Build Your Business

By Wendy Montes de Oca

Whether you’re talking about the articles you include in your e-zine or about your sales message, one thing is certain: Content is king. The written word has the power to educate and inform… as well as create buzz about your website, product, or service. That’s why one of my jobs here at Early to Rise is to circulate our e-zine articles through multiple delivery channels. Reaching potential subscribers this way helps us increase our readership and, ultimately, our revenues.

ETR’s publisher MaryEllen Tribby and I are firm believers in leveraging our marketing message too. By circulating it in multiple channels - online, e-mail, print, direct mail, and so forth - we are able to touch our prospects through whatever medium they prefer. And for those who like to receive their information through more than one medium, our message is re-enforced every time they see it in another channel.

I strongly encourage you to take this multi-channel marketing approach with your own online business. Here are seven of the best and most cost-effective channels to include in your marketing plan:

1. Paid Search Ads (Pay-Per-Click)

Google and Yahoo are the Titans of the paid-search ad world, with nearly 70 percent of market share. But there are other search engines that have a loyal following, such as MSN.com (with 16 percent market share), AOL.com (with 9.6 percent), Ask.com (5.1 percent), Infospace.com (1.1 percent), and Lycos.com (0.9 percent).

Pay-per-click (PPC) ads with any of these search engines is a cost-effective way to target prospects looking for your specific product and get broad exposure. You create a text ad, then bid on keywords (the words or phrases your target audience will be searching for) to determine your ad’s placement.

PPC paid search ads are perfect for acquiring new customers. That’s because leads that come in this way are searching specifically for your information (via targeted keywords). This makes them highly qualified prospects. For ETR’s sister publication, Total Health Breakthroughs,PPC represents more than 30 percent of its online marketing mix.

2. Organic Search Results (Search Engine Marketing)

Search engine marketing (SEM) has a nominal cost. Annual fees with search engine networks or directories typically range from $25 to $95 per year.

Some consumers give organic search results more “credibility” than paid search ads. And because they “trust” the results of an organic search more, they are more likely to click on an organic link. A recent survey by Jupiter Research illustrated that 80 percent of Web users seek organic search results. Their rationale is that organic results are un-biased. The marketer didn’t pay for that ad space. So the link’s appearance in the search results is based purely on various search algorithms and Web crawlers.

Your goal should be to balance your online presence with both paid ads and organic search results. Alexis Siemon, ETR’s Search Engine Marketing Specialist, optimizes our efforts by (among other things) making sure we have keywords in all the right places. That includes our title tags, URLs, and inside the ETR articles themselves.

3. Banner Ads

Running banner ads on other websites can be another cost-effective part of your online marketing mix. The pricing model for this is typically CPM - a specified price for every 1,000 impressions/views you receive (usually between $3 and $10).

Your media budget for banner ads will vary by:

• website
• ad unit size/type (300 x 250 typically performs best)
• location on website (home page, inside pages)
• whether the ad is targeted to a specific page or is on every page of the site
• the time of year the ad is running

Online ad networks are a cheaper alternative. Their CPM usually ranges between $2 and $6, and they have a wider reach. Some networks to consider: Advertising.com, ValueClick.com, and FastClick.com. You can find a full list of sites here: imediaconnection.com/resourceconnection/adnetwork.asp.

4. Reciprocal Ad Swaps

Some of your best resources will be your fellow publishers. This channel often gets overlooked by marketers who don’t give it the respect it deserves. In the work I do for ETR and Total Health Breakthroughs, I spend a good portion of my time researching publishers and websites in our industry. I look for relevant connections between their publications (print and online) and ours.

Let’s say I come across an e-letter about marketing that has a list of readers similar in size to ETR’s. Since many of ETR’s subscribers are interested in marketing, they might be interested in a product offered by that marketing e-letter. And that publisher’s subscribers might be interested in one of ETR’s marketing products.

Swapping ads will save you money on lead-generation initiatives. Since you won’t be paying for access to the other publisher’s list of subscribers, you can get new customers for free. The only “cost” is allowing the other publisher to access your own list. It’s a win-win situation. This technique also opens the door to potential joint-venture opportunities.

5. Co-Registration

Marketing expert Andrew Palmer defines co-registration - or “co-reg” - as “the practice of referring leads, subscriptions, or memberships in conjunction with another registration process.”

Co-reg ads use a CPL (cost per lead) payment model. You pay for the leads you capture. Your text ad and a small image of your publication appear on a webpage on another publisher’s website after a primary transaction occurs. Your ad shares the page with other publishers looking to build their own e-mail lists with free subscriptions to their e-letters or free e-reports.

To make this work, I’ve found that you need to send special introductory “bonding” e-mails to the people who sign up for your newsletter before they get added to the general circulation. This helps them remember that they signed up for your e-letter. (So when it shows up in their inbox they won’t think it’s spam.) And it helps increase the potential that those subscribers will convert to paying customers.

For more about this channel, check out Andrew Palmer’s ETR article about using co-reg to attract customers.

6. Direct Mail

Direct mail is still a consumer favorite - and another good way to get your sales message out. It can be especially effective used in concert with another effort, such as an e-mail campaign. A recent survey published in DM News indicated that 70 percent of respondents preferred receiving unsolicited correspondence via mail vs. e-mail.

As with any marketing medium, though, you can end up paying a lot. The most costly direct-mail packages are magalogs and tabloids (four-color mailers that look like magazines). However, 6 x 9 postcards, tri-fold self-mailers, and simple sales letters are three low-cost ways of taking advantage of this channel.

Although 100 percent ROI (return on investment) is what you should aim for, many direct mailers are content with 80 percent. This lower figure takes into consideration the lifetime value of the names that come in from this channel, because they are typically reliable buyers in the future.

7. Print ads

This is another channel that’s gets a raw deal. One reason is because it can be costly. To place an ad in a high-circulation magazine or newspaper, you could shell out serious money. But you don’t need a big budget to take advantage of print ads. If you don’t have deep pockets, consider targeted newspapers and periodicals.

Let’s say you’re selling an investment report. Try using the Internet to research the wealthiest cities in America. Once you get that list, look online for local newspapers in those communities. These smaller newspapers hit your target audience… and offer a much cheaper ad rate than some of the larger, broad-circulation publications. You end up getting quality rather than quantity.

I once paid for an ad in a local newspaper in Aspen, CO that had a flat rate of less than $500. My ROI on this effort turned out to be more than 1,000 percent. How’s that for a positive response rate!

The seven marketing channels I’ve just described can help you reach more customers… and eventually add dollar signs to your bottom line. So start the Near Year off with a marketing bang. By leveraging the seven channels of multi-channel marketing, I’m confident you will be amazed by the results.

In my last episode of Does Anyone Know Your Blog Even Exist, I talked about the dynamic Web 2.0 Wealth System. Which in my opinion is the best “How To” monetize your blog system on the net. It really works… I use it… However, if you are looking to drive tons of serious AUTHENTIC traffic to your site then this Blog Post is for you. In this episode I want to talk about driving serious traffic to your blog. Without traffic you get no sales…without sales you make no money. Regardless of what kind of business you are in, or what you are selling via the web, you need sales. Corperate comapanies are paying people thousands of dollars to drive traffic to their website. I met a guy who told me he charges $12,000 to his coorperate accounts every two months to drive traffic to their sites using various SEO/SEM methods. He then backs up his charges by showing them how their Alexa rankings climb every month do to his services. I thought to myself…..WOW… that sounds great, but how can the little guy afford your services who is trying to get their simple website or blog Alexa ranking up in order to convert traffic to sales? $12,000!!!!”Ain’t Gone Happen When Your Already Broke.” LOL!!!Click Here!

Well guess what…..I found a way where you could spend less that $40 doallars to learn how to do yourself what this guy charges 12K for. I know what your thinking…..I’m tired of SEO promises that don’t produce, what kind of SEO methods are you using that I dont already know about? And do they really work?….. I guaranty that if you stay in this business long enough you will recognize that no one knows all that there is to know. Thats what I like about this business, learning is limitless. Internet marketing and the keys to its success are so vass that you could work the business for 50 years and still keep finding new methods to generate traffic to your site. Let me reiterate…. “No Traffic No Money” Its not rocket science, success is based on proven systems that are developed by finding out what does not work and realigning your efforts towards the things that do. Click Here!
Ask yourself if you feel like this every day:

1. You’re frustrated because nobody wants to visit your blog…
2. You’re anctous & check your blog stats every 10 minutes hoping for a breakthrough in traffic…
3. You’re a Hater …LOL!! when you see other people’s JUMBO commission checks…

The Jumbo checks could belong to you, shift your focus to generating traffic and your product will sell. Thats the secret formula for a successful online business of any type.

“NO TRAFFIC NO MONEY”

You Blog Can Make You Money……But only if you generate the traffic thats needed to do so.

Lets do a recap on our bum marketing lessons so far:

I. Understanding “Keywords.” We know that determing the best keywords as it pertains to your niche is critical. Every article you write should be developed around a popular keyword that is searched within the search engines as it pertains to you niche. In order to really grab good keywords you need a good keyword search tool. I have recommended two.

SEO ELITE

AND

LinkAssistant (This is preferred for MAC users)

This is the critical 1st step in Bum marketing. Let me say this before I move on to the next step. If you are on a Free String Budget…..LOL!! ;>) Like I was when I first got started (btw….I still look for ways to save and be effective) there is a free Keyword search tool by Yahoo and a free Keyword search tool by Google that could assist you. However, they arent very detailed and just give you basic information. Yahoo’s data is a little off track but still usable for article purposes but may not give you the most recent infromation.

II. Writing Effective Sales Copy.

10 main elements of every sales copy:

1. Headline: designed to get your attention and draw you to the subheadline. This is the most critical portion of any add.

2. Subheadline: gives you more information and further explain the atention-geting headline

3. Photo’s: gets the attention your readers and illustrates the product more fully.

4. Caption: describes the photo. This is a major element and one that is read quite often by your viewers.

5. Copy: conveys the main selling message for your product or service.

6. Paragraph Headings: breaks the copy into sections. This makes the copy appear to be less imposing

7. Logo: to display the name of the company selling the product.

8. Price: letss the reader know the cost of the product. This could be in large type or burried in the sales copy.

9. Response Device: gives the reader a way to respond. Toll-free number , order information. This is usually placed at the end of the page.

10. Layout: provides the overall appearance for the ad.
