Do you get enough traffic?

Mike Paetzold — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 14:38:37 +0000

If you answered no, and the fact that you are continuing to read this means you probably did, then you need to address that fact.

See it does not matter what your business model is. Traffic is the life blood of it.

If you are a …

blogger
list builder
niche marketer
product creator
affiliate marketer

You need more traffic.

Dependable traffic that won’t disappear the next time Google or some one else decides to change the rules.

Most of the items for sale about traffic are all about the latest loop hole, secret software or other gadget that will make things happen with the push of a button.

Of course as soon as the loop hole gets closed, too many people know the secret or the rules change that traffic disappears.

What you really need is evergreen traffic that does not play on loop holes or secrets but on strategies that work now and still work 6 months from now.

That is why I have so strongly recommended that you check out The Traffic Dashboard.

These are traffic generation ideas that are tested and work now and will continue to work.

Marlon provides 16 ways to generate traffic and does it in an easy step by step manner.

Take the time to check it out and apply these.

They really work unlike the blind sales letters about the latest secret being pitched so often.

When you do there is one button on the dashboard marked epiphany that will show you exactly how to find and test even more so you can be on the cutting edge.

That button alone is worth the price of the course.

Check out The Traffic Dashboard.

I did and grabbed it immediately.

Week In Review – March 5, 2011

Mike Paetzold — Sat, 05 Mar 2011 11:29:47 +0000

It has been a busy and frustrating week at the same time for me. A virus raised havoc with both of my machines despite all the various protection I use and ended up spending more time on maintenance then I had planned to.

That set me a bit behind most of the week but it is all good and just part of dealing with things online. That was the bad part of the week.

The good part was that I still got quite a bit done although not as much as I would have liked to. Got a nice comment on the seminar I do every Thursday at Get Referrals Fast which always makes the time and effort worthwhile.

Finally got to see Marlon Sanders new product The Traffic Dashboard. Got mine right away and loving it.

Not as many PLR releases this week but some really good ones this week. The Facebook, Social Media and GetResponse reports all look very interesting for the right person. Did get a chance to add a case study on using these types of products to the PLR blog.

So all in all it has been a good week. Now off to what is new on the blogs.

WordPress Made Easy

The PLR Secrets

The Old Bald Guy

Whats Hot

The Traffic Dashboard – This may end up being my product recommendation of the year. Grabbed it immediately and you can get more details in the post before this. Won’t be the only time I mention this for sure.

Profit Theme – Not quite back on the market as I am writing this but recommend you go sign up so you don’t miss the discount when it does come back. The support I have received has been excellent as they have been fixing bugs but it will only be available at the $27 price for 5 days then goes to $97. Go sign up so you don’t miss the discount. Perfect for using WordPress for your marketing sites.

Social Media In 15 Minutes A Day – New PLR report from Nicole Dean. Social media is hot but keeping it from being a huge time sucker is an even hotter topic.

This Weeks Freebie

Using Press Releases For More Traffic – Free no opt in report that you can grab to start using this overlooked traffic source.

That is all for this week. Have a great weekend.

The Traffic Dashboard Finally Released

Mike Paetzold — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 23:18:38 +0000

Marlon Sanders just released his Traffic Dashboard. I grabbed mine immediately. Have been watching it shape up as he has been testing things in the A-Team webinars. Was so impressed that I grabbed it immediately.

So far have gone through the first row and been amazed.

Strongly recommend The Traffic Dashboard. It is probably the best of Marlon’s products and I have most of them.

Complete A-to-Z article marketing system that took Sean Mize from scratch to $4,000 a month in six months then $10,000 a month in 12 months (and how to predict your OWN income 12 months into the future.)

Change is coming – Are you ready for it?

Mike Paetzold — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 16:22:12 +0000

Every year the leaves change here and as marketers we need to change too. Times change and you either change or die. I am old and bald but not ready for that.

Have been looking at my affiliate marketing efforts and as things have changed so do I need to change. A few years back it was relatively easy.

There were not 14 launches each week and no one had heard of bonus wars. Boy, have things surely changed.

For me it is time to rethink how I do affiliate marketing. Some things need to change and to do well you have to be a step better in your relationships.

First is to get away from launches. Yes, they work and occasionally they are items that will help my subscribers. These, unfortunately, have become the exceptions.

The majority of items I have seen launched are not things I would use and some of the marketing they are using is sketchy to be polite.

You know the ones I am talking about. The outrageous claims and super low initial price where you go through up sell hell.

Now I am not against up sells and believe in the “would you like fries with that” principle. It adds to the bottom line but all too often the initial purchase is just a barebones tease then you get the “you really need this and this to make it work.” Have seen that one time too many of late.

Add in the exit pop hell that some use and sending my subscribers to some of these sites is a guaranteed unsubscribe and if they don’t they really should be. I am not looking out for them with this am I?

Time to find quality products and set up complete funnels for them. The key is evergreen products.

To set up a proper funnel and follow up system is a lot of that 4 letter word work but if you pick something that would be a good value next year you can set up your process and just leave it run.

So for me it will be a year of very little participation in the big launches and more about setting up complete funnels for the products that I like and use regularly.

Follow what I have learned from Marlon Sanders in his Promo Dashboard and then set up traffic sources to them.

Time to create residual income from stand alone funnels. What about you?

Will be talking more about the actual set up in the future here.

Business Building Basics

Mike Paetzold — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 12:13:01 +0000

Yesterday I wrote about the launches and today I wanted to talk about the basics of making money on line. I am a big fan of Marlon Sanders and his methods.

What I like is how he cuts to the core as you can see from the quote below.

“Making money online is NOT complex.

You get people on your LIST. You send emails asking ‘em to buy. And if that doesn’t work, you use blog posts, podcasts, videos, Twitterr messages, teleseminars and webinars that ask ‘em to buy.”

Now that is a great overview of the process but of course there are in between steps. Things like…

Finding your ideal buyer
Offering them something they really want
Getting them on to your list

Just for a start.

It doesn’t matter whether you are selling your own product or as an affiliate the process is the same. Get it right and the business can be easy. Miss a step and it can be extremely frustrating to say the least.

Now for some this may seem very basic but I know that the basics are important.

Getting your basics right is one of the keys and too many people miss out on the very first step finding your ideal buyer and where to find them. Skip this (and I have more than once before learning this hard lesson) and you will struggle unless you get lucky.

When it comes to luck I always seem to find Mr Murphy so it is much better for me to not depend on luck.

If you promotions are not going as well as you would like I recommend you check out Marlon’s Promo Dashboard where you can go step by step through all that you need.
