My Prospecting Secrets Revealed!

Let me start off by explaining the biggest benefit of providing your downline members with a viral prospecting system.

It boils down to this...

When you have a viral prospecting system in place for your team members, your downline has the potential to take on a life of its own and continue to grow effortlessly while you're focusing on more important things such as family and friends.

A gentleman I recently discovered managed to accomplish the difficult task of duplication while maintaining his full time job and family life.

He mentioned that ever since the beginning of his online ventures he was searching for a system that brought interested prospects in automatically.

He didn't have time to do the traditional recruiting methods because they required a lot of time and commitment.

What he wanted instead, was a huge downline that duplicated on auto-pilot from his part time efforts.

"But did such a solution exist?"

If it did, he said he couldn't find it...

So after many years of struggling to build a solid residual income through network marketing he decided it was time to take the bull by the horns (so to speak) and he created a 3 step marketing system that literally exploded his downline within a few months.

The part that amazed me the most was the fact that he didn't spend a dime on advertising. And his downline is now over 11,460 strong and growing monthly on auto-pilot.

Ultimately I learned that being a successful sponsor involves providing some type of system that helps people build their business, not sitting around wondering why your downline isn't doing anything.

I guess the quote from Zig Ziglar holds true:

"You can have everything in life you want, if you just help enough other people get what they want."

The Importance of a Website to a Home Business

The Importance of a Website to a Home Business

There are two types of home businesses. One type sells products and the other sells services. For a product based home business there is nothing that is more important to success then a website. A products based home business must have a website because that will become the actual face of the business.

In the online environment, websites are everything. Without a website a business is not going to make it because there will be no place for customers to come and see or buy the products. Basically, for the home business a website is the storefront. It is exactly like a physical store for them. Imagine a business in the physical world trying to sell products without a store. That would be quite difficult and not very profitable. A business must have some place from where they sell their products. That is the bottom line.

With that in mind, a business owner needs to set up a website because it is important. Setting up a website requires some skills. Fortunately there are so many options that allow a person to set up their own website without having to hire expensive programmers or other professionals to do it. There are many website making programs that handle all the programming and involve simply the aesthetics of website creation.

The website should have some key characteristics. They are as follows:

Showcase the business. This includes what the products are and information about the company. Nothing should be left to question. When a customer comes to the website they should easily be able to find the information they need.
Develop a strong image. Every business that is well known has strong image that is recognizable. This may include using a slogan or a mascot, but not matter what it should be a major point of the website.
Make it easy to use. People want to shop where it is easy to shop. Giving them an easy to use website is a great way to make it easier for them to buy and make it more likely they will want to shop there.

There are plenty of things a website should have, but these are the main points. Basically, the whole idea behind a website is that it is the communication point between the customer and the business. These three points make that clear and also bring up the fact that a website is also the main representation of the business.

People are going to look at the business website for an idea of what the business is all about. If it is not professional then they will assume the business is not professional. People do not do business with unprofessional companies. It is easy to see the major importance of a good website to a home business.

Many times home businesses fail because they just do not get the point of a website. This is a critical point to being successful in a home business. It can not be stressed enough that for a home business to succeed, it must have a strong website.

7 WAYS TO DRIVE TARGETED TRAFFIC

7 Ways to Drive Laser-Targeted Traffic


An affiliate marketer may have all the things needed for him to be able to succeed in a business such as affiliate marketing. He may have the necessary drive, diligence and perseverance to be able to understand how the system works. He may have all the tools necessary in maintaining the business, including a really unique and interesting website which could earn him a fortune if only the whole world could see it. However, all these would prove useless if he does not know how to drive traffic to his website. His business would sink into oblivion together with all the sales, fortune and dreams that he might have realized if he only knew how to do this particular task.

Getting people who matter to see one’s website is a difficult undertaking if he tries to consider the fact that there are rivals everywhere waiting to pin him down. The immensity of the internet as well as the affiliate marketing world has given birth to the fierce competition between affiliate marketers, each of whom has his own great product to offer. With all the websites piling on top of each other, how would one be able to stand out? The seven best ways to drive laser-targeted traffic to one’s own website would help those who are bent on sticking it out with this business wherever it is bound to take them.

The first step in driving traffic to one’s website is by relying on search engines and what they can do for the affiliate marketer concerned. Because they are popular for driving free targeted traffic, they should not be ignored by all means. Having top search engine rankings is vital in building popularity links, and the use of the right keywords is important in attaining this goal. Once a website is on top of the list, it is easily accessible to anyone who wants to see it for himself.

The second way in driving traffic to one’s website is by contacting other webmasters for a possible link exchange partnership. Locating websites that are related to one’s own website is the primary task. Once there, he should be able to establish communication by personalizing everything as much as possible. It is then possible to make reciprocal link exchanges between webmasters whichever way the affiliate marketer prefers.

The third way is through writing one’s own articles. This is an effective way in promoting a website, because good content that are appreciated by readers will lead them to visit the writer’s very own website out of sheer interest.

The fourth way is through joint venture marketing. This is one of the most effective ways of promoting a product or a service. Having a partner through ad swap or link exchange is beneficial to both parties as it allows them to reach a wide customer base in a short amount of time.

The fifth is through joining affiliate programs. Having affiliates to do the work means allowing them to bring tons of traffic to a website. Skyrocketing sales would be realized as a result, and both the affiliate and the website owner will benefit from the situation.

The sixth is by having a list of subscribers that one can refer to every so often, because they are those which would prove to be valuable assets for the marketer concerned. The use of autoresponders and personalized newsletters is one way of keeping track of them all, and holding on to them by letting them know about new products and services is an essential task that should be done by the affiliate marketer concerned.

The seventh is by knowing one’s market through and through. It is important for traffic to be targeted to those who might have a special interest in the theme or topic of one’s website. This way, a solid customer base is going to be created. Once a potential customer shows an interest in a particular website by paying it a visit, one must not waste time in trying to show him that his effort is worth it.

Traffic generating strategies are important in trying to make one’s affiliate marketing career inch forward. It is always advantageous to plan one’s moves in any business that he might undertake. This is particularly so in affiliate marketing. If one knows how to get people to see what he has to offer, then he is on the right track.

DINNER OPTIONS FOR BUSY INDIVIDUALS

Dinner Options For Those With Busy Business Schedules

Finding time for dinner when you are on a very busy schedule, especially if working in the field, can be very difficult at best. Many time when on the road, since you may not see the same people for months at a time, you will want to spend as much quality time with them as possible. This can make for extremely long days on the job and dinner may end up being an after thought.

Instead of grabbing a snack from the vending machine on your way to your motel room late at night, consider a few other options to enable you to have dinner while keeping to your busy schedule. Consider picking up the tab for co-workers or ones that you are visiting on your current trip and learn a little more about the person and how they conduct their business while you have dinner.

In any case, you are going to have to eat so the time should be scheduled on your daily planner. If you begin to run over on a visit into the field, try to remember that the people you are visiting have family in the local area and they may want to be home for dinner with them.

Choosing a nice, yet not overly expensive restaurant where you may find enough privacy to discuss business. It may even be possible to have dinner in a restaurant in the motel in which you are staying. Inviting others with whom you need to discuss business-related matters and turning it into a dinner meeting, which depending on the topic of discussion, may be tax deductible.

If you are not traveling in the field and taking calls from your spouse about getting together for dinner, you should make the time in your work-life balance schedule to make it happen. While staying on top of your business needs is important you can’t let it consume you and ruin the relationship you have with your family.

If you know ahead of time you are going to have to work late, contact the family and have them meet you somewhere for dinner. It will not always have to be at a fancy restaurant, sometimes a fast-food meal will satisfy any children you may have, but taking the time out of your schedule to have dinner with the family will do wonders for your relationship.

In some instances it may be better to have the family join you for dinner at work. You can call land order in an evening meal or have, read that beg, your spouse to stop on their way to your office and pick something up to share with you when they get there. While eating a decent meal for dinner is important, it is always important to spend time with your family.

TOOLS TO KEEP YOUR COMPUTER RELIABLE

TOOLS TO KEEP YOUR COMPUTER RELIABLE
Copyright © Mark Simmons
http://www.StartUrFuture.com

Every where I look there are people complaining of slow computers. I have had people asking me what to do about a slow computer so I thought I might write an article helping everyone. These are all tips and tools that I use on my computer as well as my laptop, and occasionally I will do this on other people's computers.

When your computer is running good, it is great. You can get so much done in a short amount of time. There is a lot of people that have online businesses and it is IMPERITVE to keep your computer running swift. And if it is lagging and freezing up, or in some cases you are getting pop-ups and crazy behavior, it can be very frustrating, you just want to take a hammer to it or just turn it off! But if you make money with your computer or communication that is not an option. Here are my suggestions by priority:

SPYWARE The #1 computer lagger. As you are reading this I'd bet you already have some sort of spyware. Most computers have it and you don't know until it is completely overcome by it. Do you use internet explorer? IE causes is an attracter of spyware, as is OUTLOOK & OUTLOOK EXPRESS. YAHOO MESSENGER, MYSPACE IM, AIM, these all cause some sort of spyware. Also where are you getting your Myspace comments? Many have spyware as well. Do you save your layouts on a Myspace layout site, guess what you have just giving permission to include spyware. Think about it, how is it being saved. Many people don't know this or even think about it and these sites know it! Downloading Free screensavers, wallpaper, anything free! Why is it free? I am not saying you cannot get or do these things, but YOU HAVE GOT TO PROTECT YOURSELF AND YOUR COMPUTER! You need a good SPYWARE REMOVER/SEARCHER, but be careful there is spyware software/programs that will put spyware on your computer. click this link to see the "fake" programs --> FAKES
I have tested a many of them, and I suggest these 3 programs because they do the job very well and they don't bog down your computer! (these are all links to the sites)
1-AD AWARE
2-SPYBOT-SEARCH AND DESTROY
3-E-TRUST PEST PATROL
Stabalize your computer now! The reason I recommend 3 is because no spyware program will remove all spyware. But if you use these 3 you will remove a majority of it because what one doesn't get the others will.

VIRUSES There are so many viruses out there today and more are popping up everyday. Viruses are really effecting our modern technology. Viruses are even effecting our GPS systems in our vehicles. I recommend using one of 2 programs:
1-TREND MICRO PC CILLIN
OR
2-SYMNATEC A/V
Pc cillin is awesome if your computer is newer/upgraded but I have noticed it tends to slow down older computers a great deal. If this pertains to you or if you have downloaded the trial of PC CILLIN (click this link for the trial) and it slowed your computer down, Try Symnatec a/v. It is great for older computers. I use this on one of mine, but I use pc cillin on my laptop, because it is a beast and pc cillin scans my wireless connection. Symnatec uses less resources.

FIREWALL If you are not using Pccillin, you will need a good FIREWALL. Especially if you are using WINDOWS XP. Well, I was using MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP PRO SP3 w/vista theme and it seemed much more secure, but it still had vulnerabilities. For a good firewall, I recommend Sygate Firewall becasue Windows Firewall is not reliable or trustworthy.

There are some other tweaks you can do to speed up your computer and add some stability.
delete cookies/delete temp int files/clean prefetch folder/defrag hard drive/disable indexing for tips on this click here XP TIPS Here is more tips click here --> 20 xp tricks

I use TUNEUP UTILITIES 2008 and it is awesome. It has some many tweaks. You can clean hard drive, organize hard drive, clean registry, defrag registry, optimize your computer, optimize your internet connection and downloads, and many others.You can get a free 30 day trial HERE. I hope this helps everyone, if you need more tips or you would like to see something on this page let me know!

HAPPINESS-YOU GOT IT?

I am always in search of a great video. I love to find content such as articles, videos, or books that make me a better person. You know all the self-help stuff that negative poverty minded people speak against. And this video is one you NEED to see. Especially if you have health issues. The video is only 7 minutes in length so go ahead and click here and watch it with an open mind
E F T go ahead an click that link, then come back and read this article
E F T stands for Emotional Freedom Techniques it is the natural healing aide that can be used for everything, it often works when nothing else will. A lot of people are skeptical but think about it what does it cost? a little effort on your part but if you would apply it, it would be miraculous. You really don't have to live with an illness, depression, poverty. Sure it will take action, but we all are always acting on something anyway, aren't we? Let's give it a try. We will try together. It really upsets me that people feel they have to live with illness depression etc. We are trained by the world that that is just the way life is.
DO NOT ACCEPT THAT FOR YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is so important I will say it again.

DO NOT ACCEPT THAT FOR YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!
I can help you if you want. I have a passion to help anyone that wants it! I can change your life but you have to be willing to make a few changes for the better and yes you can do it. If I can than anyone can! What is your ailment. Is it illness?
poverty? depression? life in general? I can't make you have a better life but I can offer it to you. All you have to do is reach for it. Go on reach, what are you waiting for. No one is going to do it for you. And why not claim the blessings that are yours. They are reserved for you, just waiting on you.
TAG! YOUR IT! I HAVE TOLD YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE AND CLAIM YOUR BLESSINGS, NOW YOU ARE ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOUR OWN LIFE. IF THIS SOUNDS GOOD I CAN GIVE YOU MORE. SEND ME AN EMAIL (I WILL KEEP IT PRIVATE) LET ME KNOW WHAT YOUR AILMENT IS AND I WILL WORK WITH YOU TO GET RID OF THE AILMENT WHETHER IT BE THROUGH EMAIL, PHONE , VIDEO PHONE (SKYPE IS GREAT FOR THAT) OR I CAN RECORD VIDEO'S FOR YOU TO WATCH AT YOUR CONVENIENCE WHAT EVER IS MOST COMPFORTABLE TO YOU! I DON'T CHARGE FOR THIS, THIS IS A GIFT GOD HAS GIVEN ME AND I AM ON A MISSION TO HELP EVERYONE I CAN SO THEY CAN IN TURN DO THE SAME. EVERYONE SAYS "ONE MAN CAN'T CHANGE THE WORLD" THAT IS TRUE BUT ONE MAN HELPING 50 PEOPLE AND 50 PEOPLE ENCOURAGING 50 MORE AND SO ON IS A START, ISN'T IT. I WAS JUST USING 50 PEOPLE FOR MY EXAMPLE BUT I CAN TELL YOU I AM GOING TO HELP MORE THAN 50 PEOPLE. GOD HAS GIVING ME THIS BLESSING AND THIS GIFT FOR A HUGE REASON, HE WANTS ME TO EFFECT MORE THAN 50. IF YOU ARE READING THIS AND YOU ALREADY ARE VERY HAPPY WITH YOUR LIFE- THAT IS AWESOME-ARE YOU HELPING OTHERS DO THE SAME- WHY NOT? I URGE TO PLEASE HELP OTHERS. GO AHEAD RIGHT NOW AND PLANT THEM SEEDS, YOUR SUCCESS WILL COME RUNNING AFTER YOU! THERE IS A REASON WHY PEOPLE DON'T FEEL THEY ARE GETTING ANYWHERE-THERE IS A REASON WHY THEY DON'T FEEL THEY CAN HAVE SUCCESS. IT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO BUSY TALKING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE (STAY AWAY FROM THAT) AND JUDGING. THEY ARE NEGATIVE AND POVERTY MINDED THEY DON'T BELIEVE THAT THEY SPEAK AND ACT THEIR MISFORTUNE INTO THEIR LIFE! IN CASE YOU NEVER READ ANY OF MY BLOGS OR MY ARTICLES THAT ARE DISTRIBUTED ALL OVER THE WEB AND I NEVER HAVE CONTACT WITH YOU REMEMBER A FEW THINGS

SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE THINK AND TALK ABOUT GREAT IDEAS!
-WHILE-
UNSUCCESSFUL PEOPLE TALK AND THINK ABOUT PEOPLE!
THE BIGGER THE IDEA, THE MORE SUCCESSFUL YOU ALREADY ARE!
FAILURE IS OK-IT'S GREAT!!!
FAILURE=REWARDS
NO GOOD WORK GOES UNREWARDED! (REMEMBER THIS)
NO MATTER WHO BELIEVES IT- YOU RECIEVE WHAT YOU GIVE-IT IS A FACT-PERIOD!
