How To Leverage Clickbank

Kristen — Fri, 01 May 2009 18:36:34 +0000

I’ll admit, that I have been kicking around the Internet and the world of Information Publishing for some time, for that reason, Clickbank, is one of the resources I use in different ways.

While teaching several offline classes this past month, I have found myself explaining to those not familiar with digital Information Publishing what Clickbank is, how they can use it and why.

That’s why I was thrilled today to open my Nicheology newsletter and see that Paul Evans created a short little video where he talks about Clickbank and I thought I would post here for another resource.

For more of Paul Evan’s great content, or his killer business boosting products go ahead and check him out at Nicheology

Paul also offers a SOLID short report that I highly recommend, and I can’t believe he gives it away for FREE on Multiple Income Streams .. once you read this report, you won’t walk through a store and look at products the same. This will make your mind start running with ideas for your own business!

5 Ways To Make Money Online – Free Report

Do You Offer Free Offers and Trials Even If It’s For Acai Fruit?

Kristen — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 19:00:20 +0000

We see them every day, Free Offers or Free Trials for supplements, weight loss trial products, phone consultations, you name it, someone is offering a deal… do you ignore them?

While many people may hesitate to come straight out and buy a product, (because we tend to be skeptical right off the bat), it is a very viable business marketing strategy.

I started thinking about this the other day when I was on a forum and someone was offering a set of videos on YouTube marketing. I hesitated and wondered if he would actually show me something I didn’t already know. If he was another “one of those” experts…but his sales page had an interesting twist.

He used Paypal and set the price at $0.00 and let you have a 7 day preview of the videos for free before he charged your Paypal account. Well, what the heck do I have to lose? If his videos actually provide value I can pay for the product before he even actually charges me. If I watch the videos and think they are worthless, I’ll send him an email and say no Thank You. Brilliant strategy don’t you think?

As a customer it took the threat away, and I hit the buy now button. I know, as a business owner I’m sure you are thinking, “Well, anyone can do that, take the info and still not have to pay for it and he’s out the buck”.. but really? Have we become that skeptical of our fellow solopreneurs?

Yes, there will always be a few bad apples, but the potential of gaining 30 new customers and having one bad apple, far outweighs 30 potentials not trying it because they think they’ve seen it all before. And yes, I did learn some great new tricks and resources that I’m POSITIVE will pay for the videos in less then 7 days. It’s a win win!

My next case study: I choose Acai Fruit because it was one of the products that the infamous talk show hostess, Oprah, promoted in one of her shows that suddenly made it one of the hottest sellers on the market. Acai Fruit Weight Loss is something I wouldn’t have known about but now it’s all over the place.

What do you consider more, the benefits that include:

Helps you lose weight
Increase metabolism
Increase fat oxidation
Fight fatigue

Or the power of word of mouth marketing and celebrity, authority branding?

The fact that they promoted a free trial backed by the authority branding and by the way, the talk show hostess isn’t the only “authority bling” this product is promoting but other major media coverage as well, but I bet most people jumped on the free trial offer because it came from a trusted source AND it was free so what is there to lose? They know that if it doesn’t work for them, they just cancel before the next shipment.

That is the BIG risk to the business.. it MUST deliver. They have their reputation on the line! The product must at least deliver what it promises, if not OVERDELIVER, in order to keep their new customers happy because it’s those new customers that will make them money going forward so they want you to be successful.

Also, remember the word of mouth strategy? How many women do you think talk about Acai Fruit and Acai Berry Weight Loss over coffee at their morning playgroups? I’m not trying to assume I know their exact target market, but losing baby weight, hot talk shows and looking good are all topics I can relate too!

Ok, so that is my “thought of the day” for how to infuse more customers into your business fast, what do you have that you can offer them a free trial for? Again, think about the potential and if you overdeliver you couldn’t gain a ton of new customers fast!

Aweber Autoresponder Review

Kristen — Wed, 17 Dec 2008 04:12:18 +0000

Do you love AWeber, too?

Don’t let that image fool you, this is my honest review of the Aweber autoresponder service.

Let’s start with the basics for anyone that is new to online marketing.

What is an Autoresponder?

An autoresponder is an email service provider that helps you manage your mail list, creates/distributes your newsletters, ezines, promotions, sale offerings and general updates to your customers. The word “auto” is the key here, with small and home based businesses, we need all the help we can get with automatic systems that run themselves and let us concentrate on other tasks.

Take a few hours and you can set up an entire series of email updates to go to your customers automatically! The part I love? When someone joins your list, they are automatically started at message number one so they don’t miss a thing and for those customers that joined 2 months ago you can have them well tiered into your sales and affiliate promotions.

What Can Aweber Do For You?

The features are many but here is a list of my favorite ones:

They have html templates pre-made
Push button easy, no techy experience needed
Easy list segmentation- meaning you can have different lists for your buyers/non-buyers/different niches
Flexible optin box creation- you can have lightboxes, flyins, inline
Integrates with Feedburner
Integrates with Twitter- NEW! Another way of getting your newsletter in front of hundreds/thousands of people that are not on your list!
Send different messages to different lists or send one message to all lists by checking a box
Free Training Videos!
Amazing Customer Service- do to my own learning curve, I’ve used CS a couple times and have always been impressed with how helpful & responsive they are
Unlimited campaigns
The ability to pre-schedule messages and create e-courses
many more features… but those are a few of my favorites!

Why Can’t I Send Emails From My Own Email Account?

One word.. SPAM… email services are getting so keen to spam that you run the risk of your emails not even making it past your customers spam filters. What good is a promotion when they don’t even read it? Aweber has earned a priceless reputation with all the email clients because they don’t tolerate spam and follow double optin practices so email clients have a relationship with them and they have a 99% deliverable rate.

I don’t know if I want the monthly fee

Yes, there is a monthly fee but if you can put your affiliate promotions and keep in touch with your customers automatically it will more then pay for itself and this shouldn’t be a concern. Just think, if you build your mail list and once a month you send out one affiliate promotion for a $20.00 product all you have to make is a couple sales (and if you’ve done a good job at building your relationship and providing quality referrals that fit your customer this shouldn’t be hard) and it pays for itself plus profit!

Go Ahead, take Aweber for a free test drive below and see what you think!

Barefoot Bootcamp Review

Kristen — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 16:25:49 +0000

A couple months ago I created a Barefoot Bootcamp blog post about the new program offered by the Barefoot Executive. You might have remembered that I focused on Barefoot Bootcamp being especially for Network or multi level marketing professionals, however, that all changes this round!

The first Barefoot Bootcamp was such a success, and Carrie Wilkerson, the Barefoot Executive herself has such a loyal following of business owners from every background, that she just opened a second program that fits any business model!

Online Marketing Barefoot Bootcamp Open NOW

This program will run over the course of three weeks and will include the following Lessons via webinars:

Who is your target market
List Building
Affiliate Marketing
Product Creation
Using Video (from my favorite video guy AskMrVideo!)
Monetize Your Mind- this alone is priceless-everyone should be able to make money from what you already know right?

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Then video must be worth millions, go check out the Barefoot Bootcamp videos and you will see what the right information can do for your business.

New = Scary?

I have spoken before how my own online business has grown since I took the leap of faith (still with a rock in the pit of my stomach) to invest in my eduction and it has returned ten fold with the knowledge, earnings, networking and connections that it opened up to me. I can’t believe how much of a personal impact it has on your business when you start associating with like minded, motivated and dedicated people.

As I stated above, the classes haven’t even started yet and the forum is already active with people connecting and sharing information, resources and encouragement. It’s exciting to think about it exploding after this group of motivated people start taking action and implementing the new techniques.

Is Barefoot Bootcamp For You?

I know I have a good number of readers that are ecommerce owners, and I asked myself if this would apply to anyone that is running an ecommerce store. I decided that it really depends on your personal situation.

There are some ecommerce store owners that are happy with a few extra bucks every week and are enjoy creating and packing their orders every day. Honestly, this may not be the best fit for you. However, if you are someone that wants to learn more about how to grow your business into different areas and learn how to leverage connections, affiliates and enhance your online business with other income streams then you could absolutely learn from this bootcamp and benefit from the masterminding that occurs in the forum.

There are two problems with this next round of Barefoot Bootcamp.

1. There are only 75 seats available and last time I checked it already dropping into 60 open seats. Due to the format and the personal interaction it can’t let in everyone that wants to attend.

2. The second problem? It starts this Thursday, Yes THIS Thursday, so you need to jump at the opportunity. I already have registered and the forum is already very active with everyone that can’t wait to put massive action into place.

Start by taking one small action item and checking out the videos, reading more details and see the incredible bonuses that are available and imagine what you can do with that knowledge, resources, support and encouragement- visit Barefoot Bootcamp now and get ready to kick off your shoes and get to work!

Hey, if you join, then let me know and we’ll work through the lessons together!

Your Website Promotion Doesn’t Get Easier Then This!

Kristen — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 15:15:22 +0000

I found this in my mailbox this morning- I love getting emails from people that find my information helpful. Thank you Tina, I hope everyone will visit your site and watch the video!

Kristen-

I have to tell you that finding your Beginners Guide To Traffic Tactics was incredibly perfect timing for me. As you know, I planned on you being my first Friend Friend as I relaunched the new look of my mommy site and its 3 sister sites. I got the video done, blog post set then I found this post.

Gotta tell you, you did an awesome job on your Beginners Guide To Traffic Tactics! I had touch on it in the video I had made but now that I have read it I wanted to change things up and focus on it!

The detail and effort you put into this project was great. The content was super and very easy to read. The screen shots were perfect especially for someone like me who is visual and I learn best when I can see what it is suppose to look like right in front of me (OK, maybe I’m not the brightest bulb on the tree!).

I feel that this guide is a perfect start for a newbie and an excellent companion guide for someone a little bit more advanced. Personally, I found great value in all the content but the copy tips and Resource links at the end were well worth the cost of the guide stand alone.

Both your site and this guide all most impressive! Kudos to you! Will tweet the links to you later today…hopefully!

Oh and of course it does have a shameless plug or two for the Moms Business Coach Online Training.

Online Viral Marketing Strategies- Say What?

Kristen — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 21:27:27 +0000

While out walking this week with a girlfriend, who only uses the internet to shop, she made a couple comments that lead us into talking about online viral marketing strategies. She didn’t understand why I spent the last week writing a Special Report then GIVING it away. In fact that entire topic made her furrow her brows and ask what viral marketing was and how it relates to giving away my work.

I simply asked if she liked to get things for free, and I don’t mean the left over garage sale stuff, but if you walked into a store and they actually GAVE you something that added value to your day, how would that effect your future with that store?

The concept of online marketing is full of twists and turn and is action B hangs on action A being complete. However, the pure simplicity of viral marketing is what makes it so easy for anyone to put into action. She was amazed at the pure velocity of the Viral Free Ebook for Web Traffic results that I posted a couple days ago.

Viral marketing describes any strategy that encourages individuals to pass on a marketing message to others, creating the potential for exponential growth in the message’s exposure and influence. Like viruses, such strategies take advantage of rapid multiplication to explode the message to thousands and then to millions.

Online Business Marketers Want Thousands of People To Catch Their Virus

Public health nurses offer sage advice at flu season: stay away from people who cough, wash your hands often, and don’t touch your eyes, nose, or mouth. Viruses only spread when they’re easy to transmit. Viral e-mail marketing works great on the Internet because instant communication has become so easy and inexpensive especially with the world of social networking.

Digital format make copying simple. From a marketing standpoint, you must simplify your marketing message so it can be transmitted easily and without degradation. Short is better. Remember the K.I.S.S. standard….Keep it Simple Stupid. The shorter and easier to remember is always better than long and complicated.

The Search Engine Guide had a great post on the viral marketing that is part of a larger viral marketing series and is well worth the read for anyone that is ready to move forward and take action to make their own viral marketing campaign.

Thesis Theme Review

Kristen — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 20:11:07 +0000

One of my favorite features of blogging is the ability for even the non-techie small business owner to get a professional and functional website without the hassel of learning html/css/php or waiting around for a web designer to bump your project to the top of the To Do list. That’s why I love when I find super functional themes that anyone can use like the Thesis Theme.

I’ll thank my favorite social site Twitter with this find. Someone sent a tweet about about a new blog post and when I went to read the post, I knew this theme was a keeper from first glance.

I am in the process of installing the Thesis WordPress Blog Theme to the new blog of a client. I’ll keep you posted how I like it.
