Prospect Pulling Power Utilizing Teleseminars

write_110.jpgLet’s take a look at the powerful combination of article marketing and teleseminars, and the time your average prospect spends on each.

Web Page = 30 seconds.

When somebody comes to your website, that’s about all you have to get them involved in some way, and I’m being very, very generous when I say 30 seconds. Some studies say only 7 seconds.

Think about all the work that goes into a website, and you’re doing all that work for 30 seconds.

That’s a lot of work for 30 seconds.

Article = 5 minutes

One of the reasons why article marketing is so powerful is (more…)

earthvice_110If the only thing you are doing with your Article Marketing is publishing your articles on the Article Directories, then you are missing out on a great opportunity to repurpose and extend the reach of your articles.

Facebook and Twitter are two of the most popular and powerful social networking sites on the internet.  I recommend you take advantage of the opportunity they present to repurpose and extend the reach of your articles.

Here are three steps you can take on Facebook and two steps you can take on Twitter.

Three Ways on Facebook

Once you have set up your Facebook account, here are three powerful steps to take with your articles:

Why An Article-A-Day Keeps The Recession Away

bailout-dollarArticle marketing has recession-proofed my online businesses. I know that is a big claim, and lots of people are talking about how to recession-proof your business right now.

Read on to discover how to really do it with Article Marketing and the article-a-day strategy.  Here are 7 ways an article-a-day can recession-proof your business:

1. Extend your reach – I like to call my articles my “international evergreen article agents.”

My articles allow me to reach all over the world into many markets that I could not have reached in any other way. And they are evergreen, which means they are out there forever, delivering good information with links back to my websites and blogs.

For example, just one of my articles published online in August of 2005 still receives an average of (more…)

3 Tested Tips That Expand Your “Article Reach”

article marketing, jeff herringSo what does it mean to extend the reach of your articles?

Extending the reach of your articles simply means to get your articles in front of as many eyes as possible … in as many consumable forms as possible.

Let’s take a closer look at three powerful strategies for doing just that:

1. EzineArticles + Twitter = More Exposure – If you are an info marketer who wants to extend the reach of your articles, then set-up your EzineArticles account to automatically post your approved and published articles to your Twitter profile.

You set this up by going into your Author’s Area at EzineArticles, then your Profile Manger, and then Edit Your Author Bio. In the fields provided enter your Twitter user name and pass word.

Now each time one of your new articles is approved and published at EzineArticles, an announcement will automatically be posted to your Twitter profile. In this way you are (more…)

“Creative Imitation” Boosts Your Productivity

Kids at LockerIt’s often said that “imitation is the greatest form of flattery.”

It’s also said by Alex Mandossian to “Never invent, always improve” which he also refers to as as Creative Imitation.

Peter F. Drucker, often acknowledged as the “father of modern management” also had something to say about this important marketing principle in The Essential Drucker.

Here are two interesting examples of creative imitation:

Example 1: In December of 2006 I took Alex’s Teleseminar Secrets Training for the first time. After Module 2, I decided to jump in and held my first teleseminar on Article Marketing on December 20, 2006.

Little did I know how huge a journey that first step would lead to, nor the rocket ride to success that was coming.

By “creatively imitating” Alex I soon discovered how to (more…)

Ezine Articles + Twitter = More Exposure

print_110.jpgMy favorite and most effective article directory is EzineArticles.  And thanks to my good friend and colleague Jeff Herring, I have had over one hundred (yes 100+ articles) posted there within the last few months.

How?  Simply by “repurposing” faster, better and with less human effort.  I can do this because I write with my mouth, not with my hands utilizing Teleseminar content as my core article material.

More Exposure: If you’re an info marketer who wants more reach with your articles, I recommend you set-up your EzineArticles account to automatically post your approved articles to your Twitter profile.

It’s that easy and powerful!

Key Point:  On September 17th, 2008 I received a call from (more…)

CASE STUDY: The “Fusion” Web Audio Billboard

alex-sitting.jpgIf you ever want to add more affiliate partnership sales within the “event marketing” micro-niche, the absolute best way I’ve found that attracts more referrals is “fusing” a 5-minute online AUDIO with a one-page webpage (BILLBOARD).

I call it the “Audio Billboard” marketing method and over the past decade generated a few hundred thousand dollars in sales and profits with simple no-nonsense audio messages.

Click here to see an example of the Audio Billboard I created in less than 5 minutes with (more…)

Article Marketing Secrets to Repeatedly Attract MORE Consistent Website Traffic

32169674.jpgOnce your articles are posted on the article directories, they are there forever bringing you traffic and visitors.

These are what I call your evergreen lifer articles. They’re lifers. They’re evergreen. They’re always going to be there. I have evergreen articles in two places.

1. It’s amazing to me when I get Google alerts for my name and some newspaper somewhere in the world has pulled off the wire an article I wrote in 1995 and used it in their newspaper. It just stuns me! That’s offline where these are evergreen.

2. Online I discovered article directories in the spring of 2005. Somebody told me about it on a call. Those of you that struggle with being able to be an expert and being able to talk (more…)

cliffs_110.jpgOne of my favorite shows as a kid was Get Smart. So I was excited to hear about the movie version that opened this summer. The new Get Smart movie got me to thinking about how to get smart with our article marketing efforts.
