Happy New Year, Everyone And welcome
to another issue of YOUR World Today. This begins our 6th year of
publishing this newsletter and it is because of you. Thank
you so much for staying with me year after year.
Well, today begins a new era in the United States as we swear in
a new President. It is a time of new beginnings and hope
for better days abounds.
May
2009 bring you joy, harmony and prosperity.
Now on to our discussion!
Let's continue to focus on "Successful
Affiliate Marketing".
Affiliate marketing is just
one of many ways in which you
can create a very successful online business. This method
of marketing has proven to be hugely successful for many
online business owners and it can allow you to attain the
level of income that you have dreamed of achieving.
By far one of the most
effective ways of promoting any
affiliate product - and increasing your bottom line - is
through the use of product recommendations.
If you've built a relationship
with your customers or
readers and they already trust your judgment, then they
will definitely trust your recommendations which in turn
will see you gain a good return for your efforts.
But you need to be very
careful in using this approach. If
you start recommending everything you see, your credibility
will begin to wear thin. This is particularly important
when recommendations seem exaggerated or without any proof.
With this said, not all your
recommendations have to be
glowing testimonials. Don't be afraid to mention things
that you do not like about a product or service. Rather
than lose any points, this will make your recommendation
more realistic and will tend to increase your credibility.
Furthermore, if your readers
are really interested in what
you are offering, they will be more than delighted to learn
what is good about the product, what is not so good, and
how the product will benefit them.
When you are writing about a
product, here are some points
to remember to make it work effectively for you.
1. Price resistance diminishes
in direct proportion to
trust...
If your visitors feel and
believe that you are an expert
in your niche, they are more inclined to make a purchase.
On the other hand, if you are
not exuding any confidence
and self-assurance in endorsing the products, they will
probably feel the same way and will go in search of another
product or service which is more believable.
How do you establish this aura
of expertise?
By offering unique and new
solutions they would not get
anywhere else. Show proof that what you are promoting works
as promised. Refer to prominent testimonials and
endorsements from respected and known personalities.
2. Avoid hype at all costs...
It is better to sound low key
and confident, than to
scream and seek attention. You don't want to sound
unprofessional and get a reputation for hyping products
just to make a sale.
And remember; prospects are
not stupid. They are actually
turning to experts and may already know the things that you
know.
So if you are able back up
your claims with hard facts and
data, they will gladly buy what you are promoting if this
is what they are looking for. But if you can't provide
proof, they are smart enough to try and look at your
competitors and what they are offering.
3. When recommending a
product, it is also important that
you provide bonuses...
Many marketers are already
familiar with the concept of
offering bonuses or freebies when promoting their own
products. But very few do this to promote affiliate
products. So doing this will help to make you stand out
from the crown.
When offering bonuses, provide
products that are highly
relevant to the product or service you are promoting. Doing
this will have a huge impact on your results.
4. Test the product your
promoting...
Before you add recommendations
to a product, it is
imperative that you buy and test the yourself before you
make any recommendation. Do not run the risk of promoting
junk products and services just to make a quick buck.
If you do this, it's only a
matter of time before you will
be found out. Just think how long it took you to build
credibility and trust among your visitors. All that will
take to destroy it is one big mistake on your part. Only
recommend products that you have 100% confidence in... it's
just not worth the risk!
And most importantly... don't
forget to test the support to
ensure that the people you are referring it to would not be
left high and dry when a problem suddenly arose. If they
run into problems and can't get help, the first person they
will blame is you!
Have a look at your promotions
and look at the strategies
you are using. You may not be focusing on the
recommendations that your products need to increase sales.
Your plan of action is sometimes not the only thing that is
making your program work.

Kids! Gotta Love 'Em!
Kids at the Wedding
At a friend's wedding, everything went smoothly
until it was time for the flower girl and her young
escort to come down the aisle. The boy stopped
at every pew, growling at the guests. When asked
afterward why he behaved so badly, he explained, "I
was just trying to be a good ring bear."

Info:
There's
a secret most
copywriters and
marketersonly whisper to one another.
Very few talk about this secret because it's considered dangerous and can upset people.
You see almost all successful marketers are students of hypnosis or human psychology.
They need to be so they can understand HOW & WHY people buy.
Because without this knowledge their websites or shops are as quiet as a graveyard.

Hindsight, we all know only too well, is a wonderful
thing. For example, if we had only known that the
ceiling on membership at a popular site was going to
be subscribed so quickly - we would have joined up
the minute we heard about it.
If we had only known that niche
marketing was going to be so wildly popular we would
have focused on that instead of M*L*M.
If we had only known that Google was
going to change its algorithm and the rules of
AdWords were going to change we would have...
Stop.
Stop, stop, stop.
In the world of Internet marketing,
you can safely bet that the only constant is the
rate of change!
There's always news of the latest product dropping
into your email inbox. There's always another
promise of quick and easy money. Google will keep
changing its algorithm, and new search engines are
quite likely to pop up to challenge Google.
What
can you do about this? Four main things:
1 -
Continue to Educate Yourself!
Understand that those who rise to
the top of any field - whether it's internet
marketing or something else - are good at what they
do. This means that they never stop learning. There
are always new materials, new techniques and
probably new 'experts' showing the way.
Most of us learn in three main ways:
(a) from experts who specialize in a certain niche
related to our field; (b) from others who are
following the same path as we are, and (c) by trial
and error, from our own results.
You
will find that the more you immerse yourself in the
world of internet marketing, the more you will be
able to analyze which products, services and
opportunities are right for you.
2 - Focus. Pick One System and Give
It a Fair Go!
Countless people who start out on
the internet with high hopes follow the same
pattern. They get excited about a new product or
system. They throw themselves into it and invest
long hours (and potentially quite a bit of money) in
getting it up and running.
It
might be e-books sold from mini-sites; it might be
setting up an eBay business; it might be
directory-type sites with text manipulators; it
might be AdWords or content sites optimized for
AdSense.
Then
one day they get wind of another new system
(probably one created by someone who claims "the
gurus are angry with me for giving away all their
secrets..."). Discouraged by the lack of results
with the first "opportunity", they decide to let it
rest for a while and try the new one.
Back
they go into the cycle of try-the-new-product,
get-discouraged, discard-it-and-try-the-next-thing.
And so it goes on. Months pass.
Perhaps years pass. They struggle to pay the credit
card bills mounting from buying into every new
system that comes along... with very little money
coming in to offset their 'investment'.
As
they look back, they start muttering "If I had only
known then what I know now..."
If you
can recognize yourself in this scenario, the good
news is this: Now you DO know better. You don't know
what the next new product will be that's going to
set the internet world abuzz, but you do know enough
to choose a system that's right for you and stick to
it.
3 - Take the Time to Plan!
Give
yourself from two to four weeks to regroup. Go
through all the products you have on your shelves or
on your computer. Make a list. Decide which products
you know (so wise with hindsight!) to be worth
keeping. Then analyze the 'keepers' and pick on the
best system for YOU to use at this time.
(This
will depend upon your level of knowledge and which
one you would enjoy most. Work with your strengths.)
Finally, devise a game plan. You are going to focus
on this ONE method and devise a practical time-line
to achieve results. Don't be in a rush. Make sure
you give yourself enough time to see it 'take hold'
so the money starts flowing in. That will give you
the motivation to continue.
Clear
the decks, physically as well as mentally. Put all
the products that don't fit in with your plan in
boxes or on disk for safekeeping. You may return to
them one day, but if you've chosen the system that's
right for you, you probably won't.
4 - Don't Get Distracted by New
Products!
Resolve to buy ONLY products or services that will
save you time or money in implementing the system
you have chosen.
Never buy anything on impulse. Print
out the sales letter, read it through, then put it
aside. Read it through again the next day. Does it
still seem so appealing? Check out a few forums to
listen to the buzz.
If a
product doesn't deliver, you'll soon hear about it.
If it is exceptional value, you'll hear about that,
too.
Some
questions to ask: "Will this help me to streamline
the business I have chosen? Is it worth the money?
Will it make a significant difference?" And above
all, "Do I need this, or is it just another
distraction?"
Resolve to make this the year you will succeed. No
more pocket change. No more "If I had only known..."
You DO
know.
So
make it work!

How to
Make Money Online with no Investment
Are you an entrepreneur wanting to start a home-based business
with no investment? People tell you it takes money to make
money; but that's not always the case. Follow me through this
article and I will show you how and where to get everything you
need to succeed online "Free."
First off you will need to find a product to promote; don't
worry it's not hard at all if you follow my advice. What are you
passionate about? Passionate you say; what does that have to do
with a home business. Trust me if you are willing to spend as
much time trying to make your business
work it should be something that you are interested in.
For example, let's say you love golf. One of the first
things you need to do is go here
http://clickbank.com
and open an account with them. It's free to join and they
have affiliate programs for just about any subject
possible. After you register, log in and go to Marketplace. Look
under the heading "Sports and Recreation" and search through the
many programs they offer.
For instance there is one in there that is named "Instant Golf
Swing." It's an ebook on how to improve your golf games and they
will pay you 55% commission for every ebook you sale. Not only
that, they also have a newsletter that you can subscribe to that
includes tips and tricks to help you with your golf swing. So
now you can not only make $23
for every book you sale you also get a professional golfers
advice.
You're probably wondering, "Who can I sell the ebook too", keep
reading and I'll tell you. Go here:
http://google.com and type in "newsletters golf" or you can
type in ezine directory. When you find some newsletter that
interest you subscribe to them. You can also find out if they
accept
free ads, or accept articles. Now if the affiliate program you
joined doesn't supply you with pre written ads, you can make up
your own. Go back to the sales page (click on your
Golf Link) and slowly read through it. Open up notepad and write
some of the great things about this ebook and why anybody would
want to buy it. Just 5 lines are enough for starters.
Consider writing a short golf related article; don't say you
can't do it. Just sit down at the computer and pretend you're
telling a friend about the best time of the day and what day of
the week is the best time to play golf. After you have finished
the article and gone over it so it sounds pretty interesting;
you need to put a resource box under
the article. A resource box is simply a brief description of
your self. Say something like this "Learn how to swing like the
Professionals with my Instant Golf Swing ebook. Insert
your link here. Now submit the article to an article directory
or better yet a lot of directories
