Day 41: More e-mail, Blogging, Personal Training

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

Day 41 of my six figure income from home challenge involved another blog post, another e-mail, and some personal training.

I’m working on duplication. There’s nothing like those personal calls to people I have sponsored to ask how they’re doing, give training, and ask them about their goals. My job is to help them achieve their goals. I’m trying to do better at that. As a matter of fact, I only need 4 or 5 players to achieve a six figure income and I’m good!

Day 40 “Keepin it real” with Seth Godin

Monday, March 29th, 2010

Today for my 30 minutes to a six figure income I did the following:

1. A little Facebooking. And yes, I got distracted and looked through an old friends photos for a while. Dang that Facebook. There’s a fine line between marketing online and wasting time! But, luckily, I tore myself out of memory lane and…

2. In my Facebooking came across a great, one minute clip of Seth Godin, so I created a simple Blog post out of it.

3. Sent the following letter to my list of prospects. You may wonder why I didn’t try to sell them anything. To get the answer to that, maybe you should check out the one minute video on the blog post ;-)

Subject line: Seth Godin’s controversial take on Social Media

Have you heard about Seth Godin? Ultra successful online marketer,
author of Tribes and Linchpin…

If you haven’t, you should. Get a feel for his controversial, but powerful
philosophies in this 1 minute clip (nothing to buy)

Just passing on some great Social Networking mojo!

Enjoy!

Day 35 Payday, And More Automated Signups!

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Day 35 of my six figure income from home challenge.

First of all, payday happened on day 35, and here’s a shot of my weekly income:

$73.85 this week. Up by 12 bucks. So I have plenty of work cut out for me! Or do I? Actually, I don’t think I do. Rather, a six figure income will come from a large group of people doing a little bit, not from me doing a lot. So I’m going to continue to focus on duplication, training, and helping people in their own marketing. If all I do is create a group of people that just recruits one customer per month each, I’ll achieve my six figure income in about 10 months!

Also, I had 2 more signups from the e-mail I sent out. Check some of the recent e-mail marketing training on days 33 and 34. That’s it for today!

Day 32 part deux.

Monday, March 15th, 2010

I hope I spelled that right. Deux. Two. Right? In French? Wow, High School was so long ago. Anyway, day on Day 32 I didn’t quite feel fulfilled after my blog post and database organizing session, so I sent a blast to my list as well. Here’s the text. I’m not in love with it, but it’s better to be in action than perfecting something in the laboratory!

Subject line: How big is your…

Prospect list? Seriously? Do you know? If not, I have a friendly
suggestion for you. Get more conscious about your list. How
big it is, how well you store it, how easily you can send e-mail
blasts and auto-response messages to it…

Nothing new here, right? But it’s amazing how many people
are serious about building a business, but not serious about
building a list. The challenge is THEY’RE EXACTLY THE SAME
THING!

All your future customers are going to come out of your list!

But if your list is small, or stagnant… your future business is
too!

Of course, I have a solution ;-)

Check this out:

Just skip down to the bullets.

There’s one there that I think will REALLY jump out at you…

Wishing you success!

..

You may notice that I put a few spaces, then dots at the bottom. The reason i do that is it moves the “unsubscribe” link lower, because some people will click on it by mistake, like it’s a “P.S.” link or something, and then they’re off your list forever!

Day 32: A little blogging + database management

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Day 32 of my six figure income from home strategy involves blog marketing, and database management.

For the blog post, I just did a simple one on a question I get asked a lot about e-mail marketing. You can see the post here.

Otherwise I just spent some time organizing my database, but unfortunately I can’t really make a video of that, as peoples private information shows up! So no video today, but check the blog post, and keep up your own 30 minutes a day challenge!

Day 30: Blast ‘em!

Friday, March 12th, 2010

Day 30 of my six figure income online challenge involved the routine stuff, check e-mail, etc. but the main thing I did was send an e-mail to my list. E-mail marketing, with all it’s problems and issues, is still a rock solid method of marketing that you’d have to be silly to ignore! It works!

Here’s a copy of what I wrote. Go ahead and do your R&D (Rob and duplicate!)

[tourtakerfirstname],

I had a great conversation with an “old school” marketer
recently that admitted his organization was shrinking, so
he wanted to make changes, but just didn’t think the
internet was the answer.

Why not? I asked.

“Because it’s a relationship business!” Ouch! What’s the
assumption here? That the internet isn’t about relationships.
(If that’s the case, why is Facebook the second most
visited site in the world?)

As we talked about it more, I said, “What’s the first thing
you ask a new person to do when they sign up?”

“Make a list.”

“And after they’ve contacted everybody on their list, then what?”

“Uh…”

“Let me answer that for you, they quit, right?”

“Right”

“Don’t you realize that the only difference between what
I’m doing and what you’re doing is that me and my team
are building ever increasing lists? We never run out of
prospects!”

The conversation was longer than that, but you get the
idea.

So now I ask you the question, is YOUR list growing
every day? Every week? If not, you owe it to yourself to
check this out:

And understand, your competitors are using these kinds
of tools, if you aren’t, you are at a serious competitive
disadvantage. The internet is the “elephant in the living
room,” and can’t be ignored.

Wishing you success!

“I wanted to let you both know of my excitement and
enthusiasm for this incredible “Edge Marketing System”
that you have created. In my wildest dreams I could have
never envisioned a system that works this well. My new
