First InfoMillionaire Video – The “Skinny”

December 30th, 2008

If you’re a member of Frank Kern and Trey Smith’s Infomillionaire
then you probably got the email urging you to check out the
first video…… here’s the thing….

It’s goooood stuff!

Perfect for this time of year. With 2009 walking
into our lives the next couple of days and all (whether
we’re ready or not), we should be thinking about the
things covered in the video.  Which are….

Basically, what they talk about is in
order to have a successful business, or
project or product or even relationship,
you have to do a couple of very simple things.

1 – Begin with the end in mind.  Figure
out what the ultimate, end-goal of whatever
it is your working on whether it’s starting or
successfully navigating a business or looking
for your soul mate, you have to see what the
perfect end scenario would look like.

For example:  If your goal is to make $10,000
month in your Internet Business, then you need
to see what that would look like or feel like in
your mind.

2 – Develop your reason why.  Why is it so
important for you to make $10,000/month
from your Internet Business?  Is it because you
are tired of having to get up at 6:00 or 7:00 in
the morning and driving to a job you can’t stand
and do menial tasks that your boss (whom you
don’t really care for either) assigns to you?

Is it because your tired of sweating it every 1st of
the month and trying to figure out if you’re going
to be able to pay the mortgage this month?

Whatever it is….your reason why has to be so
strong that it forces you to put together a solid
plan and stick to it to make that $10,000 per month.

3 – Break it down.  Take that $10,000 per month
figure (or whatever your monthly goal is) and break
it down to how much is that on a daily basis?
Example: $10,000/30 = $333.33 per day.

But, don’t stop there.  If you’re in the info marketing
business, you need to figure out how many products
(your own or affiliate products) that you need to sell
to reach that $333.33 figure.

Example: $333.33/$27 = 12.34
or
$333.33/$97 = 3.43

So, you would have to sell 13 $27 products to meet
your goal of $10,000/month in income or 4 $97
products.  (Of course you have to subtract your
expenses from the whole equation which would
mean you would need to sell more to hit your NET
INCOME goals)

4 – Design a plan.  Figure out what needs to be
done for you to be able to make 13 sales a day
or 4 sales a day or whatever it may be to reach
your goals.  When you break it down into bite
sized chunks like that it’s not so overwhelming.

5 – Stick to your plan.  If your not making the
4 to 13 sales a day to reach your goals, then you
need to figure out where your plan is breaking
down.

Are you putting enough effective ads in Google
Adwords?  Are you blogging enough?  Are you
submitting enough articles to the article directories?

Whatever your plan was to reach your goal, you need
to make sure the plan was solid from the get go or
go back to the plan and make adjustments.  Then,
WORK THE PLAN….key word being WORK.
(gotta work on your business…no one else will.
Not even your best buddies who you drink beer
and watch football games with on Sundays…believe
it or not…..It’s up to you)

I know this sounds almost too simple to work.

But, if your not reaching your income goals with
your Internet Business, then within those 5 steps
is the reason why…..

If your not hitting your income goals, then you
gotta go back to those 5 steps and figure out
where the break down is occurring.

As a matter of fact, I was watching the video
and thinking to myself how much it reminded
me of “The Success Secrets Course”.

Alot of you reading this already have it on your
hard drive somewhere.  I would strongly suggest
that you find it and go through it.

Some of you reading this probably don’t know
what the heck I’m talking about.

If that’s you, then I’d suggest taking a look
at this:

That’s it for now….

Like I said in my email 2009 is going to
rock!  Economic meltdown? ppphsshhhh…..

See you at the top!

Affiliate Success the 1st Key is…

February 22nd, 2008

One of the first keys to success in promoting affiliate
programs is finding a market niche.

A market niche is any segment of a market where you can
reach people effectively with a product or service
they will want to buy.

Let me give you an example:

I used to live in a little town of 5000 or so called Banff.

Out of the 5000 most were not permanent residents just
seasonal workers. Banff Alberta for those that may not
know is a Resort Town in Western Canada.

What a great experience something I’ll never forget
and for an avid skier like myself this was the best
choices I’ve ever made to go experience the splendor
of the West.

Anyways enough about geography right…

…back to the marketing

In that little town was one over-priced, under-stocked
grocery store. And it was ALWAYS busy.

Here’s why: The next nearest grocery was 30 minutes
away. Most of us didn’t even have cars let alone
wouldn’t want to drive that far just to pick up a bag
or two of groceries.

So the little over-priced, under-stocked grocery did
very well because they had a unique market.

If you want to make money, sell water in the middle of
a well-traveled desert.

Sell people what they ALREADY want. How can you find
out what people are looking for and WHERE they are
looking?

Here are some keys:

1. Use solid online tools.

People have already done much of the hard work for you
in determining what people are looking for.

Here are two solid tools you can use:

This tool will tell you exactly what keywords are
being searched for on a particular search engine and
how many other sites are listed for that keyword:

My suggestion is just use the Free Trial it’s a great starting place

This tool will tell you the top 50 most popular keyword listings.

This is a great way to determine demand for a product
or topic. http://nichebotclassic.com

2. Visit targeted forums and newsgroups.

Today almost every interest has its own forum or
newsgroup. By visiting these and reading the posts,
you can quickly see what those people are interested
in, what problems they need solved, what they are
already spending money on.

For a primer on using forums and newsgroups, go to:

3. Keep an eye on the culture.

Rosalind Gardner is a very sharp person. A number of
years ago she realized that internet dating was going
to be a huge trend in the years to come. She built a
site targeted to that market and now earns almost
$500,000 per year from affiliate programs.

You can pick her brain about exactly how you can do the same here:

Keep an eye on the culture and you might see a huge
opening.

Can you say Web 2.0 hmmmm ;)

Once you have identified a market niche, the next step
is to find a way to reach that particular group. If you can
do that, you are well on your way to making a good living
from affiliate programs.

While this is just a brief look at affiliate programs,
I have a complete 100+ page report on building a
growing income using affiliate programs.
