Marketing: The New Age of MLM Training
Old school MLM had many negative stereotypes attached to it. Some of them were justified, and as an owner of a MLM company that used to be hard for me to admit. The lack of accessibility and difficulty of training new members of your organization was extremely difficult and definitely kept the industry from reaching the heights it has now. The new training methods that were made available once the network marketing industry began to be more online based revolutionized the way owners can build their downlines.

Marketing: P P Click Internet Marketing Tips to Target the Christmas 2007 Spenders Online!
With 86% (27 million) of the UK’s population visiting a search engine in Feb 2006(1) and 70% of internet users using a search engine to find a “local” service(1), the time is now to market your business online.
As the busy Christmas period is fast approaching, there is much preparation to be done by businesses for the annual surge in consumer spending. Pay Per Click advertising on search engine’s like Google, Yahoo & MSN are essential elements of this preparation. Retailers consistently rate search engine marketing as a primary online sales driver, and a fundamental part of the online marketing plan.
As the busy Christmas period is fast approaching, there is much preparation to be done by businesses for the annual surge in consumer spending. Pay Per Click advertising on search engine’s like Google, Yahoo & MSN are essential elements of this preparation. Retailers consistently rate search engine marketing as a primary online sales driver, and a fundamental part of the online marketing plan.
2006 CHRISTMAS SHOPPING STATISTICS(2)
• Christmas is the most significant event in the UK's retail calendar
• 60% of annual turnover between November and January
• Consumers spent Ł7.6 billion online in the 10-week run-up to Christmas
• Online sales soared close to Ł1 billion a week
• Each person will spend an average Ł390 on Christmas gifts, up 18% on 2005
Opening a Pay Per Click account is quick and easy, management of the account is the tricky bit. Consulting Internet Marketing specialists is recommended in order to have your adverts up and running in time for the winter spending.
If you already have your PPC campaigns up and running here are some quick tips:
1.) When possible, adjust the message throughout the season and be sure to coordinate the message with other promotions on your website. For example: offering a free gift with purchases, free delivery & shipping and Online “Sales” will help to draw more visitors to click on your advert.
2.) Adding seasonal keywords to match what potential customers will be searching for this time of year. For example if you sell aromatic candles online and your original keywords are: candle, scented candle, candle holder, waxed candle, floating candle, etc you should try adding keywords like: Christmas candle, snowflake candle, Santa candle, seasonal candle, gift candle, holly candles etc.
3.) Monitor your results for better targeting next year. It is imperative that you have a tracking system in place to monitor your response to the changes you have implemented. This will save you time and money in the following year.
4.) Research the Competition! Find out what your direct competition is doing! By typing in your keywords “candles” and hitting search you can see in an instant which adverts you are in direct competition with. Ie: "Online Christmas Candles" Try phrasing your ads with what the competition is leaving out. Keyword Research tools are free and readily available online. This will provide you with the exact words people are typing into search engines to conduct their search.
With consumers consulting online stores & walk in stores equally, search engine advertising is an affordable way to bring in a substantial chunk of seasonal cash, provided you know a little about what you are doing. PPC specialists can provide information to benefit your sales or offer management to create and operate your campaigns for you. Be quick, as the holiday season is rapidly approaching.

Marketing: Should You Write a Book?
One morning, you open your inbox and find several e-mails that will boost your business. There is an invitation to speak at a local group comprised of your best prospects. Several emails have arrived from people who've "heard of you" and inquire about your services.  There is a message from a potential joint venture partner who has invited you to be a guest oÂn a teleconference that will reach 500 people, all of them prospects. Later that day, a journalist calls. She wants to write a story about your business, which she heard about oÂn a radio interview you gave weeks earlier.  Is this a fantasy? No. This could be a typical day in your life as a published author.  More and more business people are realizing the power of writing a book to catapult their businesses to a higher level. Speakers, consultants, coaches, therapists and other small business owners are learning that publishing a book is oÂne of the most powerful marketing strategies available.  Published authors report that their lives change, often dramatically, when their books reach the marketplace. When you become an author, you become known as the expert. When you are known as an expert in your field, whatever your field, you will find that the world will beat a path to your door.  A Book Generates Visibility and Attracts Clients  Of all the information products you can create, a book has the greatest potential to open doors. A book can give you more recognition and professional credibility than audiotapes, CDs, videos, seminars, workshops and public speaking.  Since my book Get Slightly Famous was published last year, I have been amazed at how it has transformed my business.  Publishing my book was a newsworthy event that resulted in tens of thousands of dollars in new business, high-profile media coverage, speaking engagements, radio interviews, partnership opportunities, and too many other benefits to mention.  Prospective clients now hear about me from all over the world. The media regularly call me, and I appear in newspaper articles and radio interviews.  Get Slightly Famous is not just my most effective marketing tool. It has become the core of my brand identity. My book provides a marketing platform for my business that gives all my marketing efforts a natural, sharp focus.  Best of all, marketing is not such a struggle anymore.  As a successful author you will find the stress of constantly seeking new clients can largely become a thing of the past. Clients will seek you out, ready to pay good money for your services, because you are seen as a leader in your field. You become their first choice.  It's Not Just a Book -- It's a Business!  Your book is the seed from which you can grow a multi-faceted "empire'' of related products and services, including seminars, teleclasses, reports, consulting packages, audiotapes, and other profitable information products.  Imagine selling thousands of books to trade associations as premiums for their members. Or how about creating a $49-a-month newsletter, a $995 home-study course, a $499 a year membership web site? Could you use your book as the basis for a year-long mentorship program for which individuals or groups that pay thousands of dollars a piece to participate?  The idea is to see your book as a launching pad for new business opportunities.  Barbara Hemphill used her book Taming The Paper Tiger to develop a multi-pronged branding strategy. Hemphill offers organizing skills services designed to reduce stress and increase productivity. Her business is based almost entirely oÂn her book.  Barbara has used her book to develop Taming the Paper Tiger software, gain an endorsement by Pendaflex, and found the Hemphill Productivity Institute. Her company now employs more than 70 Paper Tiger authorized consultants across the U.S. and Canada.  You can write a book!  Me, publish a book, you ask? Yes, you. It is easier than you might think, and you don't need to be a seasoned writer to become a published author.  Writing a successful book is not the easiest thing in the world, but it is entirely possible. The talents and expertise you bring to your clients can form the basis of a successful book. If you know your subject area, and can communicate your ideas in a clear, compelling, organized manner, becoming a published author is within your reach.  A strategy that works for many is to break the process into smaller steps by writing a series of articles. They then become the basis for a book. Or, you can work with a talented freelance writer to help you express your ideas clearly and with conviction.
  Â
The most traditional route is to find a publisher who will handle the production, marketing, promotion and distribution. This involves up front work (you write a detailed proposal, a table of contents, sample chapters and a market overview). Then you shop the proposal around to potential publishers, either oÂn your own or with the help of a commissioned agent. Â Self-publishing has many advantages over traditional publishing, the most compelling being greater financial returns for the author. "When you self-publish, you keep all the profits," says Dan Poynter, author of The Self-Publishing Manual. "Additionally, you get into print quickly, own the copyright, and take all applicable tax breaks." Â On the downside, self-publishing can be expensive. You pay up front for all the production and distribution costs, and if your book does not sell, you will be stuck with the leftover inventory. However, if your book is successful, you will not oÂnly have the satisfaction and advantages of being a published author, you will make more money. Â Whatever publishing route you choose, the Internet provides a global marketplace for your book. Never before has it been so easy to market a book if you are willing to invest the time and energy to write oÂne.
