In this post we are going over the 3 parts of a Successful Online Marketing business.

It’s important not to overcomplicate things and to keep it as simple as possible. What does it take to succeed?

One of the goals of you is to be accountable for others… I can set out a path but you pick it up and do it on their own…

We are talking about 3 parts here

Long Term Vision
Short Term Vision
Consistent Daily Action

Let’s Jump into this

—Long Term Vision—


SO now you need to have long term vision

You got to attach an emotion to your vision of where you want to go and where you want to be 5, 10, 20 years for now?

Everyone is focused on the now and a microwave society… technology is advanced it helps us do things quicker then before and we start to think everything is like that.

There is a a process plant the seed, cultivate the seed, harvest the seed. many people are going straight from plant to harvest.

You got to cultivate long term vision, who do you want to impact?

Part of reaching that goal is learning to impact other people…

Why are people so passionate about certain causes and different movements. That is whats going to help you and pull you through to the finish line…

Ray Higdon said “Your Pain pushes you and your vision pulls you”

—Short Term Vision—


Most people this is not a problem for people.

Short term vision is something you need just as much as long term and they work hand and hand.

One of the things a mentor of me did was tell me to build my business in 90 day increments which will lead you to your destination.

So you got four 90 day periods throughout the year

and you write down what you want in 90 days and see your progress and what did you do…

then you evaluate to where you are after 90 days and then you can set the goals and agenda for the second 90 days… then you can be

If there is one thing that you need to do consistently is being consistent. This is the biggest challenge in our lives and business…

The dog’s got to go to the vet, parent teacher conferences, go paint the shed… there are a lot of distractions in our lives.

If you are going to 90 days solid and you are going day in and day out and you are not seeing a little fruit on the tree then it’s time to invest in the coach…

Why because action is not the problem it’s just a couple of small tweaks or minor corse adjustments to your business.


—Consistent Daily Action—


If you are not doing daily consistent action you have no right to claim results

I recommend two books the slight edge by Jeff Olsen… and the compound effect by Daren Hardy you can get it on amazon especially for our niche industry…

This is one of those books that will change your life…

Success and failure are identical in what it takes to succeed and failure…

To succeed to get to the goal you take small actions over time and everyday all the little bits add up to a lot and that is called the compound effect.

It’s easy to do but its easier not to do… In regards to health If you eat a big mac coke and fires one day it wont kill you but you do that every day for 30 years and you are going to have some serious health issues…

Resource Guide
First off you can build the business of your dreams by making yourself a an authority figure / leader by the brand you create.

This causes a magnetic pull to you...

Remember its easy to draw people to you then it is to use push yourself onto people. I want to show you how to become that authority figure in your niche ...

There is a step by step to building a business and this is about creating instant authority and making you the expert...

I am going to share with you the formula for getting people to come to you!

HERE IT IS : 


Determine a hungry audience
Get a lead Magnet
Build Rapport ( after we attract leads ) with education
Recover your advertising cost with a low barrier
Following and maximize profits on the backend (selling additional things)

You remember the process to dating right? The same is true with your business here,
normally you start out with something free or low cost and that is a low barrier.

You can sell them using Attraction Marketing Formula...

Under a $100 bucks low barrier

So they opt into your funnel where do you send them

Why is authority so important? Its the difference between the hypey marketers by telling people that I am awesome...

Nobody thinks of Dr. Oz or Opra think as sleazy salesman because they are perceived as being
an authority yet they can recommend something and it fly's off the shelf...

Don't be pushy just let me show you and let me recommend some cool stuff

Big advantages of Network or Affiliate marketing... .everything that would hold you back in a normal business... all you got to do is learn marketing.

How do you want to build your business?? You can learn the skills or bypass all of this and focus on the skills which is how to market but 2 disadvantages to Affiliate marketing... you are building someone else's brand. I am not building a asset... I want to introduce you to Scott Lindstrom before xyz.. I don't want to position this person over here over me first.

Its not your results ITS YOUR KNOWLEDGE THAT WILL POSITION YOU AS THE HOME BUSINESS AUTHORITY or whatever authority you are in the niche you are pursuing.

In the Affiliate Marketing niche there are lots of competition with everyone promoting the same thing...

If you want to succeed you got to set yourself apart from other people and here is the best part
Most people are FREAKING LAZY!

People are looking for their success outside their own self... people it's you! There is no perfect system, perfect product, perfect mentor, best comp plan.

If you do a few tweaks more then the average guy then you will have the advantage...

there is a simple process
I want to go over

1.How to create your lead magnet
2.What to do with your lead magnet when they opt in
3.How to pull prospects to a buying decision
4.How to brand yourself and become the authority event when your promoting other peoples products

I will probably turn each of these into blog posts right night now I am talking specifically about 3 and 4

Most people thing marketing is 

Solving problems, providing value, education, branding, selling

Marketing does not equal promotion... people want to plaster links without value

Marketing Is:
Content
Education
Providing Value
Building Relationships
Promotions
and wrapping your message in value

Take a stranger to a friend then to a customer and then business partner

FOCUS ON THESE TWO THINGS AND YOU WILL MAKE MONEY
1. Your personal value...   what do you have? What skills? Whats upstairs that you have to give.
2.  How Much you provide ... How much do you give

Money make more Money is  $ = V      ( value )
Everyone is on the left instead of focusing on the right!

That is that famous quote is on the right side of the equation... form Zig Ziggler...

"You help enough people get what they want and you will get what you want"

Its what your passionate about... when you learn the skills of marketing with whatever you are passionate about... take your focus off the left side and come over to the right side...

They try to simply promote only the company without giving the value...
If you were asked to provide Music at a party you got 3 choices

1.You could show up with a stereo system ( anyone can do it )
2. Write lyrics and get a band ( really hard and nobody knows your songs )
3. Play some cover songs (leverage someones success and experience)

This is how the Beatles got started. This is about learning by doing... it was the process...
Its a great way to cut your teeth but if all you do is show up and plastering links.... you are doing really nothing to give part

There is a three step process my buddy Ray Higdon says cash the checks
Learn... Do... Teach
Learn Share the info and then Suggest  then that magical part of the final equation will happen the freaking sale!

Take something you want to learn about... share something that you can give prospects to help them and then recommend something... people are paying for your insight.

If you throw up all over the prospects take the 3 most coolest things and give it to your prospects... by the way this is were the final part the selling comes into play... and at this point you are simply showing them the best way to get the knowledge they want by clicking on this link and buying that product.

Take a product learn it go through it get a couple of good points and share the information with your target market then recommend or suggest what can solve their problems... In becoming a home business authority you got to learn to first become a leader by doing then by teaching and finally the money will come to you its really that simple.

P.S I want to share you a system that you can have the most turn key system if you want to build a online business, I am giving you a suggestion that could help you click here now.

I always say

Learn... Train... Succeed

Resource Guide
I want to share with you the concept of Cross Channel Marketing I  am going share some concepts that you can implement today in your marketing.

There is different marketing methods to learn, some different types are  attraction marketing, direct response, offline marketing and lead generation.. I have a passion for marketing! I wanted to understand what are the methods to build my business...

What I am going to show is the basics so here we go...


Eyeballs = money who ever owns the eyeballs owns all the money...
Do you remember the commercials of the superbowl?? The average cost for 30 seconds is a million dollars. The question you need to ask yourself with every marketing thing you do is ask this question... HOW DO I OWN THE EYEBALLS?!


So you set yourself a autoresponder...it used to cost when they came out $100 bucks a month and you could send out 4 letters a month... not that way anymore... today its literally $19 bucks per month.

Back in the day all you had to do was get them on your autoresponder and you had their eyeballs.
then came SPAM and then came the canned Spam laws keeping people from stuffing their lists with thousands of names.

So what can we do to keep the attention of the crowd?
So people hear the money is in the list...  so it's like a uphill battle as soon as you get a opt in
someone else unsubscribes... Have you felt that pain? We need a response list that will do what you ask so we have to keep them responsive...

So everyone is preaching the list... It did not matter where you communicate with them as long as you could communicate the message... who care where they are... as long as they see it somewhere...

So there are a lot of channels (autoresponders) this is the 1st thing... this is the main one you want to send people to
So we have got
Auto Responder
Google +
Facebook
Youtube
Twitter
Linked In...
How many different sites can you think of! New one's come out all the time...

So you have all these different peeps they are finding you from all the ads and videos and articles and audios ppv and they are coming in.. so I want to push them and the first place you want to push them is into your autoresponder. Here is my free report... one they opt in try to get them connected them over you your other sites you FB Fan Page your Twitter, see the videos and go to Linked in...

In my autoresponder letters push them into different methods... the more times they hear my message the more they will follow my direction...

So push them around to the Autoresponder first...  that is using only 5 channels

You are creating a big web that these people are going from one to another... and a lot overlap with each other...

When we used to prospect people all we used to have one shot to try to recruit them and either they would be yes or no... but if they get into your spider web you got 5 - 10 shots a day x365 days a year and 3, 650 shots to enroll!

Most people do not work hard at getting a web going a social connection so they have only... a autoresponder... when they say something that offends their customer then they are gone forever...
But if you got them on different sites then they are there hearing your messages constantly...

Your business is based on leverage and you need as much leverage as possible... in your business
The more leverage you have the more you can lift. Everything in marketing is about leverage and shots... If I can talk to someone over 3000 vs 3 then I got a bigger shot... I don't aways hit the ball but me being at plate enough times I can hit one out of the park.

Now I want to share a formula the technology is going to change but the formula remains the same..

HERE IS THREE STEPS TO A HYPER RESPONSIVE LIST

1. Hot Offer - Cool headline
Say something in you headline using awesome copywriting.. most people have a boring offer and a boring headline! Then they wonder why nobody is opting into my list? Duuugghhhh... because its a snooze fest over at your site. You need to stir their curiosity.

2. Thank You Page 

3. Follow up system that will sell them offers. Focus your list to connect with you and it allows you to communicate to them over and over without them getting them mad at you...

This is how you become a top recruiter and a top affiliate in your business using this Cross Channel Marketing approach its getting them interconnected. I am always looking for another channel and its like a new pool of fish...

It goes back to leverage it goes back to the number of people see your message and it goes back to the number of channels you have.

None of your marketing is not about you it's about them...

We can literally market from anywhere and at anytime so now actually yesterday is the best time to promote yourself.

P.S I have a awesome platform that will show you how to promote your content to different channels
with is extremely important and give you the skills to master them!

Fact : Too many people are going broke trying to get rich quick.

If you want to get traffic and riches without doing the work then this information is not going to be of any benefit to you.

Branded traffic is the key to brand yourself it is traffic from people that know you and have given permission to market to them...
It is the exact opposite of interruption marketing or spamming...


How do you get this branded traffic? Well if you want to know you have come to the right place

By putting value into the marketplace
By solving the problems of your target market
Work on attracting you and those that study / are interested in the things that you like

Don't ever use non serving language...

" I don't know what my target market is "

I am so happy and grateful that I am finding out what my target market is...

If unknown attract " you " who are you...

you need to create it

Value in the online world = CONTENT
that comes in the format of
  1. Blogs 
  2. articles
  3. videos 
  4. sound-cloud 
  5. Facebook Statuses 
  6. Instagram pics 
But two questions you need to ask when it comes to the content that you are getting out ...

1. What the heck do I talk about ?
2. Why would someone want to listen to me ?

If you want BRANDED traffic 
then you give them value and focus on them 
So what do I talk about again 

That is the key to brand yourself... 

Look at your notes and transfer them online 
Do you ever attend webinars? Read Book or attend events?  Making the sacrifices to make things better your writing checks... 

What can you do in 25 minutes ? 
You can Read a chapter 
Watch 3-4 short training or inspirational videos 
Transfer those notes to a video or social media (those old notebooks) 

Why would someone listen to me?? O.K BECAUSE YOU PROVIDE THEM VALUE 
If you broke down in the middle of the desert and someone offered you help would you ask for references first? 

always post on the the standards : Google plus , Twitter, Facebook... 
on a standard / daily basis... 
Pinterest... 

You can do SocialAdr is a paid service and will help you get more traffic by putting your links out there and people sharing thoes links... 

Post to Facebook Groups post in some groups... of 10,000, 5,000 and 25,000 
Post in a couple of groups but don't waste your time with a capture page in there... 
When someone posts in the FB group... people are looking for a buy button or a email op-in 
and if the answer is yes then they will close is

Now couple that with a FB post video and blam you got some awesome content that you can get out to the masses!

If you are posting a youtube video or blog you are going to get people to visit your page 

Instagram - the new social platform on site... Instagram and do tracking with bitly...bit.ly  

TIP: Track everything! Track where do you get traffic from? You need to do what it takes to find out where your traffic is coming from... 

# hashtags on Instagram are magical... If you search for a # it will find what you are looking for. 
throw a # hashtag on a comment and immediately rank for that comment.


Lets Talk Email here for a second

Let's talk about branding when it come to email :
After someone opts into your list give them their free report / free video, audio but let that be the only canned email that they will get .

Make the email totally you! Don't be the slick car salesman using pre made emails in their auto responder, people have become immune to that

Shoot them a email saying hey need help in your business are you looking for a mentor, here I am...


LEAD GENERATION ( 2 Tips )

1. Have a great give away ... the give away sucks you need to change it... have one that one that comes on your page and its the type you want. Make them toss and turn in their sleep if they don't get that great giveaway.

Tip : Have 3 give aways on the same capture page but change the giveaway - 1. A video  2. A Free Report 3. A Audio put them on a URL rotator
and see which one converts the best!

2. Ask them to become a lead - The number 1 reason people do not join is because you don't ask...
Just start doing a call of action every piece of content... Don't over complicate this
If you are using the following on your opt in forms " Get On My List" "Follow Me" " Join my newsletter" are freaking horrible

We want solutions to problems...

TIP: Lets talk about how to Make BIG MONEY when you brand yourself...
Affiliate Marketing - what not to do take a standard capture page that you get and then
spam the crap out of Facebook with the link ( capture page )

How to make money at affiliate marketing -
1. Get the course
2. Take Notes ( learn it inside and out )
3. Shoot video and blog about it and do reviews

So Instead of capture pages and do Reviews ( share some value ) and then say if you would like the full scoop then go here!

Don't worry about freebie seekers they are always making little money...

NETWORK MARKETING and branding...
You need to stop , stop , STOP putting you stupid company and spamming the heck out of everyone with it! I am sure you company is good but stop putting join my ____ business or buy my _____ stuff here..

Key: Raise Curiosity : Hey having a blast with my team... hey my buddy just won a brand new BMW...

How to make money from your own stuff...
If you say to yourself you don't know... that's ok... the reason is they think too much (overcome that by understanding all it is is monetized  trainings)  Its a deeper version of what you would do on a webinar ( kinda like the watered down version )

Tip : You want to make the big bucks - - - DO WEBINARS

BRANDED MARKETING IS


Marketing ----> Invest + Learn -----> Teach = $ $ $ 

Brand yourself with branded traffic. If you thought this content was good then be sure to like, comment or share this information 

Remember: Stop looking at how far you have to go and instead look at how far you have come!

Some questions that I got emailed to me about this post and I wanted to go over that right now

Q: How long should my blog post be ?
A: Ideally shoot for 700 words and a video - at the very least shoot a video and post it... look at people like Eric Worre is a guy that just does a video. However someone like Ray Higdon does a video and a blog post..
My bear minimum is 350-400 words plus a video but if I don't do a video then my minimum is 500+

Now if I tell you that then you go o my god... you are thinking too small ... The key is consistency and value. Now if you are really wanting to brand yourself then I recommend then you look at those two people I just mentioned.  Hope that helped...

Q: What is my first plan of action I am brand new 
A: It depends on your goals I see business as two things marketing and prospecting... when I started my idea is network marketing. Ray Higdon did a blog post and video every day... and then spend a hour or hour on active prospecting... Don't be afraid to prospect... 

If you are new and you don't have anything shoot videos then have people email you thats your call to action... Thats with no blog, no website, no leads... intelligently prospect on social media and do a combination of that! 


P.S If you would like to know where I learned this information and how to brand yourself then I would like to show you the system that can do that for you here.




You are your brand... You want to be thinking about branding you vs a product or company.

Branding is not a concept that is limited to companies it is something anything can do.

It's the way you are perceived by others. Doing this will take your business to the next level


Here are some things that will help you when you are learning  about online branding .
  • Tricks that celebrates and top earners use to draw people to them and make money! 
  • In this article you will know how to become the "go to" leader in your particular nitch 
  • The number 1 mistake new entrepreneurs make and how to keep it from happening from you! 

3 Steps 

  1. Have a clear vision of your brand and your business model 
  2. You brand must be attractive and compelling 
  3. To become the brand and the leader that you want to be! 

You are you'r brand in the way you walk talk the partnerships you make... Who do you want to be? You are still that brand even if you are not the front face and you can decide who you want to be. Do you know what you want to be inside your personal industry?

People buy people they hate to be sold but they love to buy... 
Why would someone go back to you over someone else. 

Why are you building this business? Got to have the clear vision? Ask yourself and write them down.
What is the purpose of my brand? Why am I building this business? Why do I exist? 

There is a structure to look at a business as multiple offers...
Don,t just simply be reaching out telling people to buy my crap... 

Have a initial offer but then what are you doing next... 

Lead Gen. >>> Tripwire  ( something like a  $7 dollar offer ) >>> Core Offer  but then what ?????

Think about the top people in your industry... 

What are they doing (structure) that work... series of products, services, 
Position yourself as a expert... start with short term but think of the long term strategy. 

When you do online branding what is your passion about? 

Consider you competition
What are they selling? 
How are they positioned in the marketplace? 
What makes them compelling? 

Model what's working in your niche but stands out ? 

Now the steps to create yourself as a Leader that you want to be 

Decide you are a leader 
Decide what you want you brand to look 
Take action to create and become that brand. 

Identify areas of improvement ( communication, leadership mindset, confidence presentation skills, knowledge ect. 

Ask yourself ...
  • Who are your mentors/ coaches ?
  • Only take advice from someone you would trade places with 
  • Seek mentors to help you in areas you need to improve your skills 
  • Find some to be accountable to 
So lets tie this all together with a nice visual 



I hope this helped with you and you trying to create online branding with YOU INC. 
What are you doing to brand you everyday?

P.S If you want a complete system to brand you then check this out it has helped a ton in my business


What do I use to get people to opt-In? How do I get people to get to want to willingly hand over their email mail address? Well you have come to the right place to find out. 

In this article we are going to go over the 10 ways you can attract more leads to your business by using lead magnets.


Now I am a active internet marketer and I like so many are out in the trenches actively online getting the message out about my company(s) product and or services and how it can help others. 

But it's that critical moment when someone goes to your video, your blog post, your article, and you have less then 30 seconds to get them to want to give you their information....

It has to be something that your audience stuff you cannot send them your crappy stuff (old mp3 from 3 1/2 years ago) this stuff has to be current and have value. The email address is the money... They are exchanging their email ( money ) for your content...

2 things...

1. Know your audience  2. You have to find out what your audience truly cannot live without

Sell them what they want but give them what they want and need. 

Number 1. Ebook, List or White Paper - 
Create a guide in easy to understand and read format. They normally help explain marketing topics such as: 10 blogs you cannot go without, 10 tips to getting a better conversion rate. 
Create a list of information. Think specifics here, cater to your audience what do they want to know about? 

Number 2. Strategy Call 
A free strategy call can benefit you and your new lead. They will have the opportunity to get some one on one time with you and you may gain them as a client. This requires you put in the time but the rewards can be great... PROVE YOUR WORTH! 

"My strategy calls are worth 250 dollars every day but for you sign up for one of my free calls and together we will have a breakthrough in your business."

So again for a exchange of perceived value you get their email address. 

Number 3. Webinar or Livestream

By creating a webinar it is a great way to put your face in front of your audience in a cost efficient away and you can be everywhere at once! Your leads also having the convenience of attending from the comfort of their own home!

The opt in rate is insane! You can put it on Evergreen business systems if you choose ( Google it ) 
share you knowledge!

Number 4. Free Video or Audio Training's 

Think of what you can offer to your audience. Here is where technology meet people you can have a weekly hangout training's in your digital community.
Tip: People will opt in for training videos because they can be used as a reference time and time again. 


Number 5. Coupons & Deals 
Does your business ever offer any deals? Would you be willing to give your email address fir 50 percent off your favorite store or a free ticket to a upcoming event?






"Get Your Free Ticket Now!"  " 50% Off All Products..." 


So in a trade you are giving them a deal for their email address... 

Number 6. Surveys or Contests  
People are willing to fill our surveys to get their voice heard. Restaurants ask you to fill out a survey for a free lunch. ( They get feedback and an email address!) 

Think about it, who does not what to win a contest as long at the giveaway is worth it. Lay's patato chips recently ran a "Choose your flavor" campaign in order to vote you had to register and give away your email address... 


Number 7 Juicy Bonus 
How can you sweeten the deal? Think of a way to entice your audience into action 

This can really be anything ...  "If you buy xyz and forward me your receipt I will do a one on call with you!

"Hey go over to this blog and training and if you want the bonus worksheet that goes along with this then put in your email and I will send you over the worksheet that goes along with this..."

Number 8 Assessment or Test 
These types of tests are regularly on Facebook. Have you ever seen the results from a personality quiz or posted in a friends news feed. 

"What kind of animal are you?"

It can be really any kind of quiz but the results will not be shown unless an email or Facebook signup has been received. Engage and interact with your audience. 

Number 9 Teleseminar 
These are great if you have affiliates. This is like a webinar but it combines several experts from different fields. This is a great way to broaden your audience. This is one of the best oldest and greatest ways to grow a list. 

It's kind of like a music concert you go to watch one particular band but you may hear from 3 or 4 others too in the process. 

Number 10 Information Gate / Price 

This is the process of holding back some information. People are curious by nature. Even if they are not completely sold on buying a product, they may just give out their email address to find out how much it costs or some other hidden details. 

You may not make a sale but its all about catching the lead! 


Keep a little bit of the best stuff behind a gate and allow entry upon the opt in... 

I hope you found this information on lead magnets useful and was able to get some value from it. If you thought this information was great head over to my site at

Do you want to rank higher in the search engines? It's all about repurposing content that you create.

You can use this strategy to generate higher search engine rankings other then just writing a blog post by itself. This will help you get in that top 10 spot. 

Go to Google keyword planner and look for a specific search terms things 

Think about the keywords but its not specifically for keyword design... 

Now repourposing your content across multiple channels that will allow the serch engines to pick up your post / video and in most cases rank them on the same page. 

How ? 

1.)  DO A BLOG POST 
2.) DO A VIDEO - in description put a link back to the blog post and make a video commenting on your own post.  

The video does not have to be all that great ! Let me repeat that the video does not have to be all that great ! 3 to 5 minutes tops... 

Because of the keyword in the video it landed higher VIDEO is king for now... 

Here are the steps 

1. Write a blog post 
2. Then do a video and link it back to your blog post ( optimize the video ) 
3. Put your links in your blog post that relates to the product or service that your are in. 
4. Do a press release paid or unpaid 

This is under used. If you do this 5 days a week and with a low keywords. 

This is important 
HEO Human Emotion Optimization vs SEO Search Engine Optimization 

You got to keep the emotional ties to the article you are writing so it does not feel like the article was written for the sole purpose of keyword ranking. 

Include the keywords... 

Youtube is owned by Google so it loves videos. 


When you do your blog post don't put in a bunch of gibberish and crap just to rank for the search engines. Keyword stuffing is something Google will punish you for. 


Want to add another powerful tool to use.  Press releases, when utilized can help your content rank.  ( PRLOG.ORG ) If you write a really high valuable piece of content I believe you should do a press release. There are paid and unpaid services all you have to do is Google Search for "Free Press Release". 

Imagine for a minute that you decided to blog 5 days a week and you took 3 of your blog posts and decided to put 2 of them on free press releases and then the other one on a paid service. First, you are going to get incoming traffic to your blog or page. The other thing is the press release ranks higher at times then the actual posts! 

Thats all having to do with the search engines.

So what did I do for this post on repurposing content

Keyword research shows only 40 monthly searches 









>I will do a optimized video on this with the keyword in the title and description linking back

Let me go on record here , I am a fan of using email as a 
first contact with those on your list who you want to introduce your Network Marketing or Online business to. Some say it takes away the human element.

As of now it has become a real impersonal world with email and social media. -

The thought may be “Well, I’m busy, they are busy and this makes it easier on us both….”

“I don’t want to disturb them with a phone call. ”

So, if you utilize this method, here are some things you can do to increase your odds of getting some interest; and still keep some curiosity and posture in the process.

Steps to Get Your Email Opened

1.) First, do NOT send a mass email; and especially don’t send a mass email where everyone can see everyone else’s email because you didn’t do a BCC.
Make it personal and only between 5-10 a day. Make it manageable so you can follow up and keep track of how things go.

2.) Second, never just “spam a link” or go on and on about your opportunity.

3.) LESS is more. No more than a handful of sentences and Do not speak , NOT ONE WORD about the company, name, product or what it does.

Something like this might create a lot more interest than what most people do -
SUBJECT- Hey John, Question for you (use their name, after all, you know this person and it is a PERSONAL email!)

Remember, the only goal of the subject line is to GET THE EMAIL OPENED. It’s not to sell or sign anyone up.

BODY – I hope all is going well with you. I know you’re super busy, as we all are, and I am wondering if you might do me a favor.
I have finally found something to build an internet business around, and it’s looking pretty lucrative. I could use your help and opinion.

If I sent you a link to a video, would you take a look, let me know what you think, and maybe anyone you think of who I should share this with, as well?

Let me know if that would be okay and I’ll send that link over.
Have a great night!

Now, a couple of things might happen -

1. You hear nothing back. And, if this is the case, a week later, you might send a second email, or EVEN better, pick up the phone. Chances are, you’ve already broken the ice so now a conversation is easy. Whatever you do. don’t assume that he/she is not interested. People ARE busy and their time priorities don’t always match ours!

2. You hear back and get a “no thank you.” This is fine, a yes or no equals a success. It’s a decision. Put this person on your “Re-contact in 6 months” list and send back an email saying thank you. Don’t mention anything else about it!

3. You hear back and the response is a YES. Now, you want to just send back the email with the link, and something VERY simple such as – Thank you so much for taking some time to offer your opinion. As you watch the video, here is the criteria of what I am looking for -

Someone who is discontent, to some extent, and is interested in an online business.

Someone who is ambitious and self motivated.

Someone who has an entrepreneurial spirit.

I’ll back with you in two days, and thanks again for your time.

Whatever you do, don’t blow it by saying anything about what is in the video. That is the video’s job. You can adapt this to fit whatever your business model is.

Try this simple technique and just see what might happens!


Let’s have some conversation!

Do you have a business you love; one that will take you where you want to go? AWESOME! Work it hard and know what you are selling.
