Filed Under (affiliate marketing, articles, internet marketing tools, niche, traffic) by Kevin on 23-05-2008

Are you ready to start putting “The ‘Fort Knox’ of Private Label Content” to good use?!…

10 Ways To Begin Building Your Business
Today With IGR’s Top Quality Content…

IGR is designed to serve as your singular content source - Imagine being just a couple mouse clicks away from having all the private label content you’ll ever need.

Imagine having a never-ending supply of articles for your newsletters… Or having access to unlimited content for your web-sites and blogs… Or having content with which you can quickly and easily create and publish books, training courses, special reports, and more… Or having keyword specific content to generate free traffic through search engines, forums, directories…

In just moments from now you can begin using IGR content to potentially:

1. Create your own network of “niche” web-sites. Use your sites as vehicles to promote your favorite affiliate programs and/or Google Adsense™ listings.

2. Add freshly written content to your existing sites on a regular basis. Content that could take you months to write can be acquired and added to your web-site(s) in literally just a few minutes thanks to IGR.

3. Start your own profitable “chain” of online or offline newsletters. Time after time (after time), you can login to IGR and with one quick search have fresh articles ready to send to your subscribers!

4. Generate free web-site traffic through the major search engines with our keyword specific content. Don’t forget, the content IGR provides is private label and can be modified in any way you see fit - add additional keywords, affiliate links, the sky’s the limit.

5. Generate free traffic by utilizing our article content on forums and message boards. Many popular forums will allow you to include a link to your web-site, provided your posts offer useful information. As an IGR member you’ll always have useful, “post-ready” information at your fingertips.

6. Generate free traffic and by creating “viral” products that contain links to your web-sites and product offers. You could also increase your subscriber base by offering such products as bonuses to your prospective newsletter subscribers.

7. Within minutes: Create books and other information products for sale or distribution - perhaps even your own best seller! By compiling/arranging IGR article content, or by utilizing IGR’s ready-made product content, you’ll be able to create a wide variety of information products in rapid succession…Books, ebooks, special reports, training courses, how-to manuals, tutorials, and more. You are free to convert our text-based content into a variety of optional formats such as pdf, exe, cd-rom, audio, or even video!

8. Publish your own magazine? (Your “staff of writers” is in already in place! Use IGR’s ready-made article content to assemble your own online or offline magazine in efficient fashion.)

9. Of course, the content we provide would be perfect for use in your own blog! (One of the keys to a successful blog is consistency. On days when you experience “writers block” or are simply short on time, grab an article from IGR and you have an instant blog entry.)

10. Pre-sell your prospective customers by using the content that relates to the products or services you’re promoting. It’s a fact: *Educating your customer* is one of the most effective ways to “sell” them on your offer.

And much, much more.

Like I said, the possibilities are truly endless!

How To Catapult Your Commissions From 50% to 300%

Filed Under (Russell Brunson, affiliate marketing, internet marketing, secrets revealed) by Kevin on 21-05-2008

Did you know the “industry standard” for affilate commission payouts is 30% to 50%. Heck, if you check Clickbank, you’ll notice some merchants are paying 75% commissions if you sell their product for them.

But what’s unheard of is getting 100%..200%…even a whopping 300% affiliate commission for promoting a single product. Do the math: that’s MULTIPLE times what the product is selling for!

Listen: I know it sounds like marketing hype. I know–I thought the same thing.

But internet marketing wizard Russell Brunson is finally spilling the beans on how he multiplied his affiliate commission check during one of the biggest launches in 2007.

You can check it out by going here: Affiliate Evolution

There will be 5 LIVE videos where Russell will be discussing how he multiplied a $250 commission from a $500 sale into a whopping $637.43 per sale!

(You read that right: that’s OVER $137 more than the actual product was selling for!!!)

So don’t mess around: head on over to… Affiliate Evolution

This will be a LIVE Video training series; therefore, space is limited.

See you there!

Listen, nobody in internet marketing knows about this secret strategy. It’s a technique Russell’s been exploiting to annihilate his competitors in affiliate contests (even those who have more sales!). Get the scoop by registering for the training video series right now!

Armand Morin’s PersuasionX Seminar

Filed Under (Armand Morin, affiliate marketing, internet marketing, secrets revealed) by Kevin on 20-05-2008

This was suppose to be a private event: PersuasionX Seminar

For the last 7+ years, Armand Morin has developed a bit of a reputation…

He has become famous for being able to sell a TON of products at seminars (and when you can do that, promoters want you on their stage).

Armand is asked to speak at various seminars all around the world virtually every week.

Over the last year he generated $4.1 million dollars just from speaking at seminars.

Here’s something you probably didn’t know…
Last year Armand dramatically cut back his speaking engagements to spend more time with his family and his new born baby.

That’s when something interesting happened…

Although he cut back his speaking gigs, his sales soared.

Why?

Because he began analyzing he presentations and eventually figured out exactly what makes people buy.

Each time he spoke, the more he “dialed in” the perfect sales presentation.

Here is the amazing part of this story…

Armand was able to generate the $4.1 million dollars from just 14 speaking engagements!

That’s an average of $292,857 for each presentation he gave.

Not bad considering each presentation is normally 90 minutes.

So how did he do it?

That’s what so many people have asked and little by little, Armand has been quietly advising a few of his Platinum members about the subtle persuasion techniques he uses in his presentations.

Guess what happened?

Their sales began to climb as well!

Before he knew it, people were pulling him aside and quietly asking him to show them these powerful selling strategies.

So finally, after a lot of thought, he decided to hold a small private gathering for high level marketers where he would share exactly what he knows about selling from stage.

However, here’s what you need to know…
Armand Is Not Planning On Doing This Event Ever Again…

What began as a “private seminar” has now turned into a stampede as people are doing everything they can to attend this event.

The reason is simple…

Armand has said that he’s not likely to ever do this event again.

This is where the chaos began…

One person told another and before he knew it, the word had spread between various people and there were all kinds of people registering for this event even though it wasn’t available anywhere online.

People were contacting his support desk and pleading his staff to let them attend.

Although he was reluctant at first (because it was meant to be a small gathering) he decided to let his guard down.

So it’s official… the Persuasion X seminar is now available for the general public:

PersuasionX Seminar

Please Be Warned…

* This is not just “any seminar”.

It is a VERY pricey event for high level marketers. Armand doesn’t want just “anyone” getting a hold of these techniques.

* This event is NOT for everyone.

If you have no intention of speaking from stage, then it’s definitely not for you.

If you don’t plan on hosting a teleseminar in the next year, this isn’t for you.

If you aren’t someone who plans on selling any kind of product or service in the next year, don’t click the link below.

PersuasionX Seminar

However if you want to learn the powerful techniques to help you win over any audience and dramatically improve your sales, then click the link above.

Niche It, Niche It Good!

Filed Under (affiliate marketing, articles, internet marketing, niche) by Kevin on 13-03-2008

A second key to online success is to work the small, profitable niche’s.

I’ll give you an example.

I wanted to buy a DVD player. Yes, I’d held out long enough and was ready to embrace the “new” technology!

BUT, I didn’t want another box under my TV. So I went looking for a DVD/VCR combo.

I found one I liked and took it home from the store.

I’m a happy bunny. The Lord Of The Rings is just spectacular! :-)

OK, back to the niche.

If you search Google for “home business” (without typing the quotes) you get 6.8 Million results.

If you search Google for “DVD VCR combo” (without typing the quotes) you get 61,000 results.

Now, if you earn 2% per sale on a $400 DVD/VCR combo from your local electrical retailers website, that’s $8 per sale.

And there’s very little competition.

Work the Niche :-)

I recommend Mini Site Profits by Phil Wiley for learning about cashing in on mini sites…

…see if you can have a number one page for “DVD/VHS combo” this time next month :-)

Key To Retiring Early…

Filed Under (affiliate marketing, articles, internet marketing) by Kevin on 13-03-2008

I was reading Web Gold by Terry Dean last week and he mentioned how residual income is a key to success for many people.

It’s easy to see how Terry’s right. If you have a job, you have to keep working to earn money.

If you have a business, you have to keep selling to earn money.

But, if you sell a product through recurring billing, or if you sell products as an affiliate and earn residual income, you can reach a level of success which will enable you to stop working!

For as long as the person buys the product, you take a slice of the revenue.

Even if you sold to them five years ago.

Of course, if you’re an affiliate, you have the same risks that the merchant may go broke.

And if you’re the merchant, you still have to provide the service which the customers are paying monthly for, and provide customer support.

But the fact is that building a residual sales income will provide greater stability and revenue than making continuous sales.

Try to build a residual income stream into your business, and let me know how you get on :-)

By the way, I’ve got tons of great info from Terry’s site…

Commission Stolen - From Under My Nose!

Filed Under (affiliate marketing, affiliate programs, articles) by Kevin on 13-03-2008

Some people doubt that commission stealing is a problem.

It is.

Clickbank has taken steps to plug the leaks in their system according to Allan Gardyne’s latest newsletter.

If you’re an affiliate and not subscribed to Allan’s newsletter, you’re missing the best newsletter in the field…it’s free… http://www.AssociatePrograms.com/

I’m glad ClickBank is moving in the right direction because I had a commission deliberately stolen from right under my nose!

How do I know?

Easy.

I’m the ONLY affiliate for a product I endorsed recently.

But, when I sent my announcement, a sale appeared from a SECOND affiliate username.

The person had changed my affiliate link to their own so that they could pocket the commission I was due.

That’s bad karma folks.

Even if stealing commissions was the easiest thing in the world to do, it still doesn’t make it right.

We recently discussed the different software solutions to preventing commission theft at:

Successful Affiliate Programs Require a Lot of Maintenance and Work

Filed Under (affiliate marketing) by Kevin on 01-03-2008

Affiliate marketing is a web-based marketing practice in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate’s marketing efforts. Affiliate marketing is also the name of the industry where a number of different types of companies and individuals are performing this form of internet marketing, including affiliate networks, affiliate management companies and in-house affiliate managers, specialized 3rd party vendors, and various types of affiliates/publishers who promote the products and services of their partners.

Affiliate marketing is driven by entrepreneurs who are working at the forefront of internet marketing. Affiliate marketing is a business opportunity like any other.

When it comes to making money online, affiliate marketing is surely the crowd catcher. The best thing about affiliate marketing is that it is very simple to learn, anyone can do it, and all you need is the Internet and a computer (which it looks like you already have those if you are reading this.

Promoting products through affiliate marketing is much better than trying to promote and sell your own product for the following reasons:
* You don’t have to deal with customers and customer complaints.
* You can benefit from their already established brand awareness.
* All billing and delivery are taken care of for you by the affiliate program.
* You do not have to invest in stock.
* Refunds are usually absorbed by the program.

Where Do I start To Make Money Online. If you already have a website, then affiliate marketing is the first internet home business opportunity you should think of , if you want to make money online. The most common process of affiliate marketing is the placement of links on the website that is promoting a bigger business.

In a nutshell, affiliate marketing is an arrangement between an online merchant and affiliate (you), in which the affiliate earns a commission for generating sales, leads and/or clicks for the merchant’s web site.

SECOND (2) - We are adding a new feature for Vendors that will post NAME and EMAIL data from the sale to your AWEBER, GETRESPONSE, PROSENDER, ARP3, or 1shppoingcart, or other autoresponders AT THE POINT OF SALE.

Imagine now, no need to have your buyers fill out a form to register for your product, Their REAL DATA will automatically be posted to autoresponder so you can follow up for life.


We are working on many other things, but we wanted to get this out to you so you can be ready to take advantage of all these things as soon as they come out.

To your Success,
Mike Filsaime
President and CEO - PayDotCom.com

PayDotCom is worth a look.

15 Reasons to Become an Affiliate Marketer

Filed Under (Rosalind Gardner, affiliate marketing, article, internet marketing, internet marketing tools) by Kevin on 13-02-2008

I ran across this article from Rosalind Gardner and wanted to share it. She has given me permission to re-print it.

It is several years old but I still think her points are valid. Rosalind has become very well respected and I trust her words.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

15 Reasons to Become an Affiliate Marketer

- by Rosalind Gardner

© 2004 Rosalind Gardner - All Rights reserved
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

There are HUGE benefits to promoting affiliate programs with your own home-based Internet business, and I’ve come up with a list of 15 great reasons to become an affiliate marketer.

Let’s look at each reason separately:

1. No Production Costs - The cost to develop and produce a new product is prohibitive for almost anyone who wants to start a home-based business. With affiliate programs, production costs aren’t an issue. The product has been developed and proven - all on the merchant’s nickel.

2. Low Cost Set-up - Compared with building a brick and mortar store, starting a home-based Internet business is relatively cheap. You probably already have a desk, Internet-connected computer and word-processing software, which is all the equipment you may need.

3. No Fees for Joining or Licenses to Buy - I often compare doing business as an affiliate, with distributing a line of products in the real world. The biggest difference is that the distributor must often pay for a license to distribute products within a limited geographic region. Affiliate programs, on the other hand, are usually free to join, and geographic market reach is limited only by the affiliate’s ability to promote his web site.

4. Choose From Thousands of Products and Services - What isn’t sold online? That list must be shorter than the one describing all that IS sold online. There are thousands and thousands of affiliate programs selling every product under the sun. That makes it easy to find products related to your current or planned web site.

5. No Sales Experience Needed - When I started my affiliate business, I had absolutely no sales experience. That wasn’t a problem, however. The companies I affiliated with provided excellent marketing material. Using their sales copy, I was able to get my first affiliate site up in less than a day.

6. No Employees - The largest expense of most businesses is employee salaries. Although there might be times when you need or want someone to work for you as an affiliate, it’s doubtful you’ll ever have to worry about hiring full or part-time employees. When you have a project you want to hire out, it is easy to find specialists in every computer-related field who can work for you from the comfort of THEIR own homes. You pay only for the project, and never have to worry about ongoing employee-related benefits and deductions.

7. No Expensive Merchant Accounts Needed - Setting up a merchant account for any business is a time-consuming and costly business. It’s even more tedious for Internet businesses. However, merchant accounts aren’t a concern when you’re an affiliate. The merchant bears that cost and handles all processing of payments. You never have to lose sleep over potential chargebacks, fraud or losing your merchant account when you’re an affiliate.

8. No Inventory to Carry - Even if you live in a small one-bedroom apartment, as an affiliate you can sell large items without storage concerns.

9. No Order-Processing - Forget the problems associated with collecting and storing names, addresses, credit card numbers, etc. The merchant does all that!

10. No Product Shipping - The cost and hassle to prepare and ship products to customers worldwide could be staggering. Affiliates never have to worry about packaging supplies or postal rates.

11. No Customer Service Concerns - Do you hate the prospect of dealing with nasty people or customer complaints? Don’t worry about it! The merchant handles the snivelers.

12. Make Money While You Sleep - What other business allows you as a sole proprietor to keep your doors open and keep making money even when you take breaks or after you go home for the night?

13. The World at Your Doorstep - The Internet is the world’s largest marketplace. You can drive more visitors to your online store in a day, than many small-town merchants sees in his or her brick and mortar business in a year.

14. Minimal Risk - The product you chose isn’t making money? Dump it. Take down your links and promote another! It’s that easy. There are no long-term contracts binding you to products that don’t sell.

15. High Income Potential - If you have a job, your salary or hourly wage is probably pre-determined. Maybe there’s not much, other than working overtime, that you can do to increase your income. With your own affiliate business on the Internet your income potential is limited only by your desire, effort and imagination.

There you have them - all the good reasons to start your own online affiliate marketing business. Start today and benefit from this incredibly simple, cost-effective business opportunity known as affiliate marketing. The time is right, and the time is now.
