Simple Online Marketing Tips & Strategies

Twitter: 140 Characters To Profits

Good people…this blog post is all about Twitter. Twitter Marketing to be exact.

If you stick around long enough, I’d appreciate it if you ”Like” and “Share” if you find the info of value.

I try to keep it simple without all the Hype.

Most of you already know about Twitter and probably use it as part of your marketing strategy to build your social media presence. Well, if you aren’t using it, you should.

It’s free…

Firing off short messages up to 140 characters on your profile and viewing other users profiles can make you some money with the right branding and delivery. Of course, you need to have a plan.

Hell, we all do.

Twitter allows flexibility, helps you or your company quickly establish direct relationships with your audience, and provides you with a capability to connect with your base faster. It can also help you save cash on marketing, if you have a budget.

So, let me ask you a question, my friend…. Is your company, brand, or you being tweeted about or retweeted right now? If “Yes,” that’s cool. Whatever you’re doing is working, so”Keep on Trucking!”

Word on the street is that Twitter is the truest focus group on the planet.

What do you think?

If you are the nosy type you can easily find out what folks are saying. All you have to do is use Twitter’s search engine (http://search.twitter.com) to check out what’s hot about a company, person, or industry.

You know what’s so slick about Twitter and Twitter Marketing?

It lets you or your company deliver awesome customer service to individuals and groups, and check this out, because all your subscribers can see the response you tweeted, many of your subscribers will benefit from that one awesome example of “Marketing Goodness” called customer service.

But you got to walk the walk, you know what I mean?

If you are going to set-up a Twitter account you got to put in the work to maintain it. You must use this marketing platform to get people involved and engaged, forget about yourself.

Using Twitter as a self-serving propaganda tool will not get you or your company any “Cool Points.”

I’ve said this in past post, “You better have a presence of the web if you want online success.” You need to have a Twitter account to stake your claim on the web.

It’s true.

Don’t believe me? Well believe this…a Twitter site is often one of the top web listings in a Google or Yahoo search. If you have a small company or a start-up affiliate marketer with a small or no budget to post ads, Twitter can serve as your main marketing outlet.

Businesses, for example, that focus on nutritional products can tweet new product additions or hot deals. You can do this right from your mobile, it’s an easy task and absolutely instant.

Even if you or your company has a small website on the web, you can change your Twitter page so it’s visually consistent with your website and whatever branding you already have in place.

Believe it or not, there are some major online entities that could care less about doing this, losing out on a prime opportunity to emphasize their brand.

Hell, just because you or your company is small doesn’t mean that it can’t compete with the big guys.

Got Three “Vs”? Try This Social Media Strategy Today

When it comes to marketing on social media platforms, some of you want to try to do it all. Well, more power to you, no disrespect. Not me. “I ain’t got that type of time”…

But, what I did do, in terms of throwing content on the social media wall to see what sticks, I found didn’t work for me…It did make me narrow my focus to a few of them. You know, the “Big Three”…Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, but hey, that’s just me.

You can do what you want to do. It’s your marketing techniques, tips, etc., but a little advice never hurt anyone. At least, I hope not. …..

So, getting back to the real “Meat & Potatoes” of this blog post before I digress. There’s an overwhelming amount of social media options out there. Pick out your top 2 or 3 favorites and go for it.

At the end of the day, If you truly want success by sticking your big toe in the murky waters of social media marketing it eventually boils down to the three Vs: value, values, and voice.

Yeah, I can see you with a perplexed expression on your face, like “JL, “WTH” are you talking about! LOL….Cool, I’ll see if I can break this down like fractions for you…

Value

I’m going to assume that you know what value means…not trying to be funny, it’s all about getting the message. See, this stuff is important. Social media, as you may know, has got to be bigger than one single person, company, or organization. Now, you can write about yourself, post a bunch of selfies, and focus on yourself, company, or organization…it’s all good.

This effort may keep search engines happy as hell, but the readers are going to look at you as a boring P-O-S….

Just keeping things real here.

Try to deliver great value to the reader. You see, it’s not all about you. Think of how to improve their lives (not by simply selling a product or some service, but by talking about it in a way that it has an impact. A big one).

Do you want your readers to “Stay and Play?” I feel you. Just remember that your content doesn’t have to be profound. But it must have a reason, understand?

I hope so.

Values

Have any principles that you think are important? Well, this is exactly what values mean…. There are a lot of companies and organizations, because of their industry, make the big mistake in believing that using social media must be formal and bland…. no seasonings, a diet version of its formal self.

Wrong….

We’ve all been around the block or two. Yeah, I get the compliance and regulatory piece on issues and concerns, but these two things shouldn’t dictate that social media marketing must be boring as “Hell.”

As a retired military veteran, I enjoy writing about entrepreneurship principles and strategies, and share some links to other articles to show how other veterans are stepping out on faith and building non-traditional fortunes.

If you’re affiliated with a company selling attraction marketing products, well you can use social media platforms to offer awesome content by sharing you or your company values and experiences about not having to chase friends and family to try to get your prospects into your business opportunity, and how to experience rejection-free outcomes.

Hit the huge issues first, then talk about you and your organization second.

Voice

This last “V” is a beast. It’s serious. It’s about being real when you write or post. Honestly, no one wants to hear that “Take Me To Your Leader” Martian-like voice on paper…so, work this part out. Figure out what your true voice is and write the way you talk.

If you, your company, or organization is in the pharmaceutical industry, well the authentic voice may be more professional and compassionate and geared more toward making readers feel confident in potentially using one of your products or medications to eliminate an illness or condition.

The President of the company may come off as a bit more opinionated, especially on social media. But for you, well you must have a conversation with your readers on issues you care about, and that voice of yours will ring through loud and clear as a bell.

This, my friend, is how you create connections…..through the use of an authentic voice.

Grow Your Business With Article Marketing

Welcome to my latest blog post that touches on Article Marketing. As always, if you like what you’ve read and find it of value, please “Like” and “Share!”

It’s always appreciated.

So, let me ask you a simple question, “Are you using article marketing to build your brand or presence online?” Don’t feel bad if you aren’t. Truth be told, using article marketing sites is one of the most underrated online marketing strategies out there right now.

Not sure why…

You can use this strategy to covertly promote products and services (very soft selling tactics, never actually promoting a company or its services upfront) using article directories online.

You see, most of these directories receive a very high-level of website traffic and are considered the authority by major search engines, so the articles rank like “Gang-busters” in search engines and generate a boatload of free traffic which equates to profits and more sales for you.

What you’ll need to do is start submitting your articles to multiple article directories. That’s right, “They won’t submit themselves,” you’ll need to take action if you’re serious about making money online and building your brand using this vehicle.

Just be careful with submitting duplicate content.

Search engines don’t play that.

I say this because most search engines filter duplicate content to prevent the exact same articles from showing up in its searches. But not to worry, you can avoid this issue by modifying articles slightly to keep the content different and increase your chances of snatching up high rankings.

Now, don’t get me wrong, you won’t be able to go “Hog-wild” promoting your company overtly on these type of sites, you’ll still be able to build the credibility and visibility for your company (most article sites have author bio sections that allow you to link to the main site).

Check this out, whenever your content is authored and it’s good stuff, the source can start to become an authority. That’s right, note the word authority in the awesome word authority!

This will also allow you to go to work on some analytics. This is the time to sneak a few keywords or phrases into your article to optimize it to help your readers find you online quicker using the very keywords that you used.

Pretty cool, right?

In fact, if you build your content around the keywords and phrases your target market is searching for, they’ll find your site, and your articles. This will also grow awareness and for you, hopefully some good old conversions.

Get started today, here’s some top article marketing directories to consider submitting your keyword and phrase-driven articles to:

Is Your Sales Letter Strong Enough?

Can you avoid not having a sales letter? Well, the simple answer is “Yes, you can”….if you like being broke, that is. But, If you really want to take your online marketing business to the next level, you’ll need a sales letter.

A strong one.

You have one page to attract a customer; you’ll lose the opportunity if your sole emphasis is on your business. Remember, your customer’s main concern is fulfilling his or her needs and desires, not increasing the balance in your bank account.

Booyah!

Hey, if you suck at writing sales letter, not to worry, just hire someone to do it for you. You can find some pretty decent writers who are great at creating copy on a few freelance websites like http://rentcoder.com or http://elance.com.

If you’ve read a few sales letters that made you want to buy its product or services why not grab some of the verbiage from those particular sales letters and study the crap out of them to learn how the writer used tone, style, pacing, and unique formats to suck you into the overall sales zone?

Here’s a few tips to make sure your sales letter has all the components that line up with a solid copy writing format:

A killer headline
Focus on benefits over features
Great graphics
Focus on the “all-important customer”
Bonuses with estimated value displayed
Powerful closing offer and guarantee

Check out this great resource that I’ve use and still do to get better at creating copy. Click here to learn more.

Once you’ve finished your sales letter, please make sure you run it through spell-check.

Share it with your friends, relatives, business partners, etc. to review, edit, and provide honest feedback.

They’ll see a few things that you may have missed and tell you just how strong your letter is.

The Importance of Blogging For Business

Blogging gives you, as a marketer, added credibility. You see, some of the people whom you consider your target market will oftentimes “Google” you. Why? Because they want to assess how much of a presence you have on the internet before they either commit to purchasing a product or service from you or potentially joining you as a business partner.

Hey, it’s the truth.

Blogging gives your targeted customers “More of You.” You know what I mean? They get to learn more about you as a person. Not just a business owner trying to ultimately “Make it Rain,” if you will. So, if you’re not blogging, the next question is “Why not?”

Especially if you’re trying to build a legitimate business online or offline and a name for yourself.

Business blogging is one of the most powerful digital marketing tools that you can use to get your name in front of your target market. Think of it as a “Nerve center” for content, including video, audio, and text.

Blogs have power, if well-executed with a purpose and plan in mind. If its message can deliver on providing the needed awareness for your company, product, and/or service, you have hit “Pay-dirt!” Yes, If you create a business blog that delivers like this, it becomes a critical element of your overall marketing mix. But, if you screw it up, it can become a frustrating, time-consuming task that gives you absolutely zero return for your efforts.

Hey, it is what it is. We live and we learn. Lets continue.

Now, we all know you should keep the customer’s needs and desires in the forefront of our marketing minds, but we should also keep in mind that the main purpose for blogging for business is to create customer awareness and engagement who eventually come to us as converted leads and all-important sales. But, just to be clear, the goal of your business blog is not to covert your prospects immediately into leads or customers.

It’s all about preselling first.

Marketing, at the end of the day, is all about the order of the offers you put in front of your customers, leads, and prospects. The content you create is considered “Nerve Center Entry Point Offers” that you make to your prospects that don’t really know you or anything about your company. In other words, your cold market.

But also, keep in mind that the content you create can be sent out using email, posted on social media, and paid traffic to even your best customers to keep your online or offline business at the forefront in the mind’s of your customers which provides added value.

Knowing The Value You Provide

Back again, folks, with another value-added blog post to make you think “Outside-the-Marketing-Box!” Thanks for stopping by to read what I have cooking for you. I truly appreciate it to the fullest.

If you like what you’ve read and found it of value, please “Like” and “Share.”

Now, getting into it, this latest post is all about ensuring that you know what value you bring to your target audience, as an online or offline marketer. That’s if you did the ground work to target your idea customer.

Not every marketer does this.

But, that’s another discussion….

So, seriously, do you really know what value you to your company provides to your target market? This is a critical piece of marketing knowledge that becomes an important part in the planning phase if you want to achieve real marketing success.

So, again, you really need to understand the overall value that you or your products, services, and company brings to the marketplace.

In fact, the value you provide is far more greater than the products or services you sell to your best customers. That’s right. This is one of the biggest misconceptions in online and offline marketing, especially online marketing.

Most newbie marketers think that their target market buys their products or services like mindless zombies without rational thought applied. No…what that target market is really looking for is outcomes.

This is what they purchase.

Most marketers find it difficult understanding this piece of the marketing pie, as well as articulating it to the receiver. I say this because I don’t want this to happen to YOU, as a valued reader.

Listen, I don’t have all the answers, but I have learned the hard way while operating in both the online and offline network marketing space and I have made necessary marketing adjustments, in terms of my own personal approach.

I just want you to learn from some of my mistakes and Folks, I’ve made a lot of them in the past couple of years. But, now I’ve learned from my mistakes.

Check this out. Just imagine a well-known “Child Actor” who is angry for one reason or another. Lets place him in the “Before” state. Yes, this is the “Home Alone Kid”….well, he was…now, he looks like he just wants to be “Left Alone.”

Well..no matter what you’re selling, you are still trying to reach a target audience who are in the “Before” state of mind. Take another look at Macaulay Carson Culkin.

This suggestion was not meant to make you laugh, but did you? ….He does look a little more like “Kid Rock” at this stage of the game, you agree?

Let me provide some insight. No matter what you’re selling, you’re trying to attract a group of ideal customers who are in this so-called Before state.

To really get down into the “Weeds” why not write down some adjectives that actually describe your prospective customer before he or she, not the “Pic” above before he or she experienced the product or service.

What is his or her status? Depressed, Struggling, Sad, Out of shape, Bored, Broke?

OK…you can stop staring at the above actor’s photo. Hey, people change. Well, maybe not as drastic physically, but it happens.

You ready to leap forward? Well, as an online and offline marketer, how many of you have actually sat back and visualized your idea customer after they’ve experienced your product or service?

That’s “Real Talk?”

What’s his or her “After” state? Change is always good. But, how has this product or service changed your target audiences life? Is that same target audience happier? Healthier? More hyped? Saving more?

You see, the shift from the Before state to the After state is what your target audience is actually buying. This is the “Outcome!” Yes, this is the value that you’re business brings to the marketplace.

If you don’t know how to articulate this move from the Before state to the After state, you are missing the boat. This goes for all your distributors, etc, if you are in Network Marketing.

Indeed, this understanding of this transition from the Before to the After state is what allows you to create what is referred to as a Statement of Value. Listen, this statement is highly important because it truly sums up the overall value of your product or service. This is a critical step in your marketing game plan.

If, you aren’t just a hobbyist.

Is Your Website Serving Its Purpose?

Hey, it’s a fair question, don’t you think? You didn’t post it on the web to take up space did you? Of course not. You want it to deliver a message.

Hopefully, a very strong one. A strategic website’s core purpose is to serve, support, and sell. Now, some of the goals that you are trying to achieve will vary by company or organization.

Some of these goals may include selling products, sharing information, filling out a lead-generation form, downloading technology, picking up the phone, building credibility and more.

Well, to make these things happen, effective websites comes in all types of shapes, sizes, designs, and most importantly, technologies.

Here’s an amazing fact…by the time you finish reading this post, there may be 600 million+ websites on the Web. This can become a very scary thought for most internet marketers.

It’s enough to make marketers wonder, among all that website noise, “how will their websites be able to effectively compete on the World Wide Web?

Let me answer this question for you…YOU must have clear marketing goals and a solid website plan. At the end of the day, the only constant with website marketing is change.

Website work is a “Gift” that keeps on “Given!”

The work is never finished. This might seem like a weakness, in fact, the flexible and fluid nature of websites is their greatest strength.

They become the scalable solution (if done correctly) that can expand and grow to support a company’s expansion or “Bottom-line.” Websites truly serve a company or organization’s goals when they serve the people using them first….Whether you are putting together a website from ground floor or optimizing an existing one, some of my future post will shade light on best practices.

Now, you wouldn’t build a house without having a blueprint on site. It’s the same philosophy and it must be applied to building a successful website.

Know What You’re About When It Comes to Marketing

The title of this post probably caught you off guard didn’t it? LOL! Hey, it’s COOL. What I’m referring to is the all-important “Elevator speech.”

That’s right the “Elevator speech,” you know, that quick explanation or description of yourself that you can give out real quick and in a hurry – in the time it takes to ride an elevator.

The reality is, you won’t find a lot of folks trying to hang around to listen to you explain who you are using the “Extended play” version.

Listen, people are busy these days, everyone has his or her list of things to do or accomplish just to survive, so the folks you connect with don’t have all day to “Lollygag” just to get to know you.

Excuse me, but I’m just keeping it real.

At the end of the day, you must know what to do, what you can offer a potential customer, and what you’re looking for, and most importantly, figure out how to express all of it in less than 30 seconds.

Can you do it?

Well, believe it or not, it takes a little practice. Who wants to sound like a robot? It never hurts to rehearse your elevator speech a bit before you start connecting with potential prospects.

Always remember that 50% of the term “Marketing yourself” is “Marketing” so do exactly that, and spin your speech so that you appear interesting, engaging, and intriguing.

A Minor Adjustment In Your Marketing Can Mean Big Bucks

OK, have you ever had dreams of making it “Rain?” Well, if you would like to do so in real life, through the art of marketing on or off-line, then you are in the right place, my friend. And guess what? I truly appreciate you stopping by!

As always, before I get into it, I would love for you to take time out to “Like” and “Share” my page if you find it of value. I really try to avoid B.S. or hype jobs. It’s all about education. Hey, I learn and hopefully, you do too. It’s mutual. Cool?

Let me start this off by highlighting a case study. It’s all about cracking the marketing code to start making the money you deserve. We all want this and believe it or not, making a few minor adjustments in your marketing approach can oftentimes produce this very outcome.

Check this out, about 30 years ago, a marketer named Joe Karbo placed a full-page ad in newspapers throughout the U.S. marketing a book called the “Lazy Man’s Way to Riches.”

It was all self-published information and it sold for $10 bucks at the time. It was 156 pages. Now, the word on the street during that time was that the first full-page ad used to test the sale and promote this book was recorded as a marketing disaster and complete flop.

Could you imagine spending all of your #$%^& money on a full-page ad in the LA Times and getting zero orders! The average marketer would have probably threw up his hands and walked away.

Joe Karbo, didn’t do that. He was a master at marketing, and knew that his idea would work if he could simply crack the code. Well, guess what he did? He decided to risk re-running the ad unchanged, except for one number in the subtitle.

Instead of “How to earn $50,000 a year the lazy way,” he just changed it to read “How to make $20,000 a year the lazy way.” …this small ad tweak worked. Orders for his books started falling from the sky.

And tweak produced one of the classic marketing campaigns of all time. In essence, Joe Karbo “Made it Rain.”

He made hundreds of thousand of dollars from his ads, year after year, like clockwork. You are probably thinking to yourself, why did this one small change make such a huge difference in his marketing outcome? It’s simple. Most folks can only “See” what they can believe.

Think about it.

Back then, earning $5, 000 yearly was good money and considered an excellent salary. Earning 10 times that amount – $50K annually – was such a huge amount of cash that it simply wasn’t believable. This was the main reason no one responded. But when he lowered the amount to a more believable amount, suddenly everyone began to “See” it.

You see, the title you select, the words you use to sell your products, the benefits your information offers, and the way it’s packaged will cause this to happen.

And, once again….all it takes is one small tweak.

Can You Really Make Serious Money Running a Online Website?

Hey, I appreciate you stopping by to check out what my latest blog is all about. If you find some value in the content, please “Like” or “Share” before moving on. This post answers the question, “Can you really make money online?”

I’m asked this question all the time. The answer is always the same… “Yes!”

But, let me be very clear about this effort…. You must have a marketing game plan.

Making money online requires focus and a solid marketing game plan with a focus on a niche market. Hey, I failed a few times trying to make serious passive income online before waking up and “Smelling the marketing coffee.”

For me, the best way to earn income online was selling a digital product. All you have to do is simply create or find a digital product to sell, build a ‘sales page’ from which to promote the product and then use advertising or marketing strategies in order to drive more visitors to that sales page.

This is a very ‘hands off’ method of earning an income that will generate cold-hard cash while you’re sleeping – and you don’t even need to worry about delivering a product!

But, here’s the problem. It can become limited in scope. What I mean is, eventually, you’re likely to exhaust the market for your particular product and find that the cost of advertising will start to outweigh the profits from your sales.

You stop delivering value to your target market, you stop building relationships and at the end of the day, and you start getting discouraged.

“Don’t!”…

You just have to find your groove, your true passion. The Web is huge. Start building your own brand, build a big audience and then sell products that you are really interested in and proud of.

So, once again, can you really generate the same kind of passive income from a website? How long will it take? Let’s find out…

The Challenge

There are a number of challenges that make it harder to make a passive income from a website out of the starting blocks.

For starters, you’ll immediately find that the money you make from adverts like as Google Ads is not truly comparable to the money you can make from a digital product. Ads will typically pay out a few cents per click and most of your visitors are not going to click them often.

This is especially true these days with so many people running ‘ad blockers’ and the like.

Another huge problem is that it can take a long time and a lot of work to gain a big audience on a website. You’re going to be competing with the rest of the web and many of the creators you’re going up against will have gigantic advertising budgets.

Huge marketing budgets……

The Strategy

But as with most things, the secret is to work ‘smarter, not harder’.

That means picking the right niche to begin with. By selecting the right niche to enter into, you will be able to avoid going up against huge competition (as you might do if your niche were something broad like ‘fitness’ for example) while at the same time ensuring there is enough of a demand for what you’re selling.

Choose a niche that has clear products to sell to a specific audience and one that will allow you to avoid the hugest competition.

The next strategy is to recognize that you need enough content to climb the ranks of Google and that this content needs to be high quality.

This is where it can be hard to keep your model ‘passive’ but the solutions are either to hire someone who will create the content for you, or to spend a while writing lots of content so that you can post it gradually over time.
