Unbreakable Solid Rules To Winning In The Online Marketing WAR!

image I will make this real short and sweet.

Sometimes, people like to make things over-complicated…when things may be better just…simple.

Yeah. Simple often works. We just need to get our head down and follow it.

Just as simplicity in trading stocks work, it does also when it comes to marketing online. Or even offline for that matter.

So here are some simple rules I’m gonna lay down for you.

If you wanna win in the market, then concentrate on having…

  • More products (and higher priced ones)
  • More prospects, customers & affiliates (or distributors)
  • More selling transaction frequency (doing more follow ups, cross-selling, up-selling)
  • More testing and tweaking and optimizing (to optimize and boost conversion)
  • More copywriting (or sales pitching)
  • More JV Managers (Help you recruit more affiliates/distributors)
  • More traffic

Hey’ it ain’t that difficult isn’t it?

Simple plan and it will work – provided you get to WORK – NOW!.

Ready. Fire. Aim.

Go for it, tiger!

All Success,

How To Turn The Table On Those Who Play The Good Cop, Bad Cop Technique On You!

image Last week, I talk about the effectiveness of the good cop, bad cop routine as a negotiation technique.

Now, let’s change perspective a little here, shall we?

Let’s say…now you are not the one that is using this technique. But instead, you are the one on the receiving end of this.

How would you react? Remember I mentioned that, sometimes even when one knows that the technique is being used on him – he still ends up falling for it?

With your permission, I will explain to you a 2 sneaky but yet very simple tricks on how to turn the table on those who dare mess with you. Some nerve!

Turn The Table Trick No. 1

Embarrass them. Say, "You guys are not gonna play the good cop, bad cop on me, aren’t you? I’m about to burst out in laughter now…"

That shall land some rotten eggs on their face! Eat that, bonehead!

Turn The Table Trick.  No. 2

Tell the good cop, that whatever the bad cop says, you are going to attribute that to him as well.


Classic Negotiation Technique – Good Cop, Bad Cop

good cop bad cop If you are ever in a situation whereby you have to negotiate with someone, and you find yourself without much progress, you may want to employ the tried-and-tested technique – the good cop, bad cop routine.

 

I know. I know. You often see these in the movies.

But you know, it is widely shown for a reason. Not just because it is a classic technique. Not just because it is widely-used. Beyond that – it just flat out works.

Believe it or not, even those who know the trick is being used on them, they still fall for it. Yep, it’s that powerful.

For those who are not in the know, here’s how it works.

Say you are in a negotiation situation, and you want to break the deadlock.

You team up with another person. Someone will have to play the ‘good’ cop role, with the other the ‘bad’ cop role.

The bad cop will play the tough-ass bastard who refuses to give an inch and plays hard ball. The good cop, on the other hand, will play the nice guy. Who tries to pacify and makes some concessions.


10 Random Traffic Generation Strategies – Part 3

image4_thumb2Today, we will be continuing where we left out from the 2nd issue of ‘10 Random Traffic Generation Strategies’ series.

As usual, these value-packed traffic tactics come in bite-sized nuggets.

Without further ado, here’s part 3!

Note: There are thousand and one ways to get traffic. What’s important is to take action and focus on the ones that work best for you.

1. Add social bookmarking icons to your site. And encourage visitors to bookmark your site.

2. Optimize your site for the search engines. If you are using WordPress, you can use the All-In-One SEO plugin that takes care of your on-page optimization needs (meta tags, keywords, description and title).

3. Host a webinar

4. Submit your site to review sites.

5. Do a 3 way link exchange.

6. Join a high authority forum or group in your niche, and contribute valuable content. And have all the good karma transferred to your site when you put it up in your signature.

7. Write link-baiting content. A good way is to touch on very controversial issues (e.g. Is Google a big conspiracy?)


50 Power Words To ‘Juice’ Up Your Sales Copy

clip_image002Copywriting is salesmanship in print.

If you want to sell on the net, then you MUST know copywriting.

You need to use words that sell. Words that inspire emotional response in your prospect.

And to make them want to buy.

 

Copywriting is all about the clever use of persuasive power words to entice and compel people into buying.

Yes the art of using just that – ‘hot’ words that sell which pushed your emotional hot button.

If we are to use the normal words like we do in our typical conversation, we might have trouble convincing, because the words we usually speak lack the extra ’spark’ and ‘emotional-inducing’ elements.

With effective emotional triggering words and phrases, it can make a major difference to your conversion.

I compiled a list of 50 power and ‘juicy’ words that can help to spice up your copy and give it an ‘extra’ magic.
