What's Happening Inside -- Open Education Project

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

If you are willing to anonymously tell me what you're faced with...in most pressing ways, I would seriously like to know.  I disabled "anonymous" posting for two days to test traffic.  It's still better to keep this blog pubically available to all for now. 

Inside of our Open Education Project (also called Wealthy Affiliate) where I have access to countless Internet marketing tools helping me develop, expand, and deliver content to you, we are all asking what we can do better to assist you.  Take a look at the visit we're having inside, so as to serve you far, far better.

Take a look.


The tools/lessons most need but try to pay for independently spend more than they would necessarily breaking up their needs into separate components --

• web hosting
• website templates
• ad copy (how to write it well...how to submit it ...how to optimize it ...and more)
• keyword tools (this alone can cost hundreds and hundreds of dollars)
• website software (yet more $$ out of pocket)
• dedicated serves ($190 a month and more)
• the smaller tools that make life manageable (anti-spamming tools, website security)
• communication devices ($20 month..on average...can be had through your web host but may be limited if it takes up bandwidth via email...so you need expansive options here in order to build your clientelle lists)
• directories (that aren't crowded and showcase a much smaller number of finest writers devoted to bringing highest quality content and natural website traffic)
• tutorials (which spare you major hassle trial and error learning)
• videos (live tutorials which spare you time)
• access to a proven network of interactive, dedicated online marketers who know what's needed and essential.

Honestly tell me what's on your mind.  What do you need?  How can we deliver better..., reliably...easily...readily?

Rapid Fire Blog Publishing

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

Whether you're new or returning, today, I'm going to talk about "rapid fire" publishing, an instant fingertip reality which is ...more and more... by-passing traditional publishing houses connected to older media (t.v., newspapers, and radio).  This blog is solely dedicated to home-based businesses, whatever they may be...but before I do that, take a moment to join this FREE interactive newsletter.

Last night, I prepared the free report which requires more time.  I intend for it to be highly informative.  Please, include your accurate first name and best contact information for e-mail.  The finest Internet marketers and even network marketers always keep their lists confidential.  We do NOT sell anything to 3rd party organizations (like magazine circulars). I will always teach you always to keep your lists safe and properly segmented.

___________________________________________________________________


We change topics now as I tell you what is happening with global audiences.


SHIFTING REALITY -- Eyes are moving away from older media and they are using podcasts, MP3 players, and other hand-held devices

• As a new or seasoned marketer, you stand in front of a major curve called Internet opportunity

About 53 million viewers world-wide can potentially see your content.  Google accounts for a majority of traffic within the U.S.  Globally, the audiences are much, much larger.  Any tools you use with Google index you in a favorable light, as long as your content is strong.

• Stay tuned on this blog.  I am a professional writer publishing in my own quiet directory...however, more details along those lines will be shared soon;

• It is wonderful news for you (if you do not have a website or Word Press yet) that you should consider using blogger as your instant publishing channel. 

• For more developed and advanced marketers, they are better off using their expanded websites to boost traffic/profits...but for newbies and network marketers advancing online, blogging gives you a monthly income.

When done properly, with plans and structure, you can expect one small blog to generate anywhere from $200 - $300/month.  When you scale your efforts upwardly, you can generate any monthly amount you wish.  I'm not talking about a scant $2,500 a month.  If you play this game well, you can generate much, much more...but it depends on HOW MANY blogs (targeting different niches) you own.  This is a major key.


MORE ABOUT SHIFTING TRENDS

• Network marketers, affiliates, super-affiliates can benefit because rapid fire posts quite nearly interact with audiences LIVE, and old media cannot compete with the rate at which blogs communicate to world-wide audiences -- sharing a chief reason.

MORE FACTS, 2006 - Present Day

Further support involving the why's of blogging, you can set up and operate a business from home or on the go as this effort leverages the power of multiple income streams -- yes -- you are not imaging this reading...whereby profitable blogging business leverages numerous advertisers, traffic-based clicks and purchases appearing on your blog, along with added merchandising, and more.  You are the sole power guiding your ship through planned harbors.

BLOGGING CONTENT

Reason Why #1)  Costs you nothing but research, time, and writing
Reason Why #2)  It is very affordable
Reason Why #3)  I'm showing you HOW it is done
Reason Why #4)  You WILL and CAN have your own niche if you choose, but it is not happening per se with the major niche I'm addressing here...(although this is my favorite crowd)...for reasons related to being prepared to write intensive content often...over many year's time.  You can, if you choose, build and directly visit with your own list
Reason Why #5)  There are two kinds of blogs -- 1A)  Content Blogs...and 1B)  Thematic (Sub-Niche) Blogs.


GOLDEN BLOGGING RULE

1)  Patience
2)  Persistence....Quality Content Only
3)  Profit


I hope you found something here helpful.  I am working on bringing you the finest content found anywhere online. Feel free to post your Q's, comments, or suggestions.  I am working as fast as possibly can including other responsiblities.  You CAN succeed.

Toasting Your Success, Entirely!

Mastering Keywords - MLM Or Otherwise

Welcome Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

More people are finding me....and welcome new folks.  Happy to meet you here.  This blog talks about ways to generate a living from home leveraging technology, and it offers concrete solutions without steering you in one direction.  We study major campaigns as examples, and I show you through action what is possible.

• I can refer you to people using proven marketing, when others are in a bind.

• I have an organic listing (natural listing) but obtained it by writing about network marketing challenges (and offer solutions), but heavily talk about Internet marketing on this blog because direct response marketing moves everything online....yes...even MLM products.

• If you know little or less about Internet marketing and want to know how it works, feel free to click on this blog's various articles.

I hit all levels of marketing.

If you are in an MLM -- here's the secret no one seems to know ...or if they DO know, they refuse to share it.  I love meeting MLM'ers in person...playing naive, asking them Q's to find out what they're doing, and will then spot the "one who hides his/her active secrets"!  BUT..., it is done in true fun in order to bring you what will usually surpass their results.  What these top dogs don't know is that I share precisely what they do --  and that is -- many generate their own leads from home.  They're not running off to no-where speaking to family or friends! 

On this blog, I SHOW YOU HOW THEY DO IT.

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE, ADD THIS BLOG USING YOUR RSS FEED.  Submit your email located at the bottom of this blog...and use your real name.  No - you won't be called or hounded by phone.  Internet marketers don't use phones unless they absolutely want to touch base with pressing client concerns.

• Transitioning content over to a Word Press -- for those of you who have a Word Press blog (.com) or (.org) already, I am prepping content covering every subject imagineable.  It is professional content that is accurate, given these changing times...;

Quick Tip:  Blogging has spamming challenges, I have confirmed absolutely.  It goes along with the territory, but you can pay $5 or $10 a month for Akismet, an anti-spamming tool for Word Press.  It is well worth the monthly cost. 

• If you do not yet have a communications tool, that costs you $20 a month...and is well worth the monthly price.  You cannot build your contact list without it. 

• Generate $200 - $300 a month by using blogging

• Market several smaller niches using blogging here...or on Word Press

• Scale your marketing upward, reinvest profits when you can, and eventually build your own super-affiliate products.

TODAY'S EDUCATED READING

• For those of you who want to know how you master keywords which leads to higher traffic, lower competition, and higher quality leads resulting in conversions (paid results), this article is for you.  It is written by my fellow marketing associate, Kyle, inside of Wealthy Affiliate.

Still preparing my newsletter for your added benefit so please be patient.

Quality Data Lives Online!

I'll make it short without a header or footer.

YES -- 

These are the only sources I trust:

• Terry Duff  (ad copy master for MLM/affiliates/super-affiliates)
• Myself (as I've learned the hard-core marketing from Terry Duff...and I am developing my followings...)
• Wealthy Affiliate...they help you as much as you will help yourself --  many of us work together
• Gino Niccoli  (closing master...for MLM and human empowerment)
• I'm still testing major gurus I can trust (so far...many of them only want to sell you product or turn you into one of their affiliates)
• Mike Anderson (retired but he's on my Facebook profile...knows a lot too)
• The major campaigns you see...and ones I share
• Dream Teamers -- they are doing the same -- Internet marketing for MLM/affiliate marketing/super-affiliates
• Graduates of Wealthy Affiliate -- they're not graduates -- they're the handful doing it very well -- Travis Sego, Bum Marketer/Kyle/Carson/Jennifer Ledbetter

Terry Duff - ad copy/articles/blogging/traffic, paid and Free...BUT Terry also works with some folks who've been online forever...and he recommends them to us...and others.  Google Terry.

It's a short list.

There is a place called Internet Marketing Mastery Academy...I have NOT tested them.

Ed Dale is another super-affiliate... -- he's somewhat hard to follow online as you implement -- 30-Day Challenge....his power tools are amazing!  Marketing Samurai...keyword Samurai...Domain Samurai.

Kevin Riley I also recommend.

There are some who are so grand...but they rarely work with individuals.  These people I mention are highly active.

Marketing Workarounds

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

One of the most challenging aspects behind any online marketing is that you're going to hit bricks walls.  Here's what I do.  FIRST and foremost...research the trouble you're facing.

• A majority of solutions exist online when you Google them
• Be careful not to hit the pay button
• Many wonderful solutions require a cash outlay...BUT YOU CAN USE FREEBIES AS STARTERS
• I cite affiliate marketing...BUT IT'S NOT THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN.

There is actually affiliate marketing software, but if you don't have the dedicated server, you're purchasing that monthly service (less than $200) plus the software (another $200).

SOLUTION:  Always Research Open Source First

As you can, when you can...but only if it saves you time

• In a majority of these cases, these online resources take you only so far and they cost you more time than the actual monetary investment would
• CutePDF is one PDF editor that helps you get started online because this is where you can create info-preneurial ebooks that are connected to your PayPal
• Today -- I found an enable button connected to PayPal  over at A-Weber so that it works on a website...but you must rent the monthly communications tool (GetResponse or A-Weber)
• Just check out those 2 resources
• They are prime keys in marketing!
• Some web hosts do have their own autoresponders.

Q & A:  Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.

I've been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

I have also researched this topic.  I have not found anything that is integrated other than pulling in integrated social media.

In a prior post, I offered some super-affiliate ideas that show you how integrated marketing works.

There is a tool that integrates social media.  It's not coming to mind...so bear with me.

I will research that need and share updates.

Newsletter In Progress, CLICK JOIN THE SITE!

Welcome Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

We're basically LIVE here.  I'm driving some readers nuts (without meaning to do so...so I apologize). 

I AM CONNECTING THE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE SO THAT WE CAN VISIT WITHOUT BLOGGER GETTING IN THE WAY.

1. In order to reduce repeat incoming email messages happening for us all (as it's bugging me too), I have changed settings. 
2. You will have to become a member of this blog in order to comment.  I am willing to do the same IN RETURN.

Here's what I see happening.... -- a bunch of fellow Internet marketers are here interacting...but they may be missing ad copy as a skill!  SEE AMAZON BOOKS....RUN SEARCH UNDER WRITING AD COPY FOR DUMMIES..OR COPYWRITING FOR DUMMIES.

1. Some want to write
2. Some have additional ideas
3. Many are new and are intrigued by the level of intensity Internet marketers have and share openly
4. We are intensely interested in helping one another -- it's the nature of our breed
5. FULL, OPEN, TRANSPARENT MARKETING IS THE WAY TO GO !
6. Those who grab hands and work together will do well, whatever they market
7. I POSTED SUPER-AFFILIATE INTEGRATED MARKETING!!!   SEE POST.
8. YOUR OWN PRODUCT CREATION IS AN ADVANCED PHASE OF ONLINE REVENUE
9. BEGINNING REVENUE IS THROUGH AFFILIATE MARKETING (AMAZON/YOUR OWN E-BOOKS... -- for which I have specific strategies related to promotions of your books...but the communications device is a big part of that promotion...some of you may already know).
10. INTERMEDIATE REVENUE HAPPENS WITH A COMBINATION OF MARKETING TECHNIQUES.
11. MLM'ers -- You become "info-preneurs" selling what is sold at the MLM level...but YOU DO THE MARKETING through your website, using your free reports, using your presentations. 
12. SIDEBAR:  http://moodiescruise.com  is sold out! 
13. Please stay tuned! 
14. It takes time to figure out how this stuff works together...but you can succeed.

Repeat EMails From Blogger

Hello Online Entrepreneurs,

This is a limitation of Blogger.  We're having the identical challenges on all computers and hand-helds...getting repeat messages.  If you are a fellow marketer and you know why this is happening (as I have checked all internal settings), I suspect, we'll all have to head over to Word Press.

Hang tight.

Blogger is obviously not the communications channel one wants.

It would be better to contact me via: 

barbara@barbara-brinkmeyer.com

Many people are finding me now.  I want the same for you.  The key is ....get a blogger going for starters.  Don't worry too much about format.  PRINT is what grabs attention.  Help others.  Be patient.  Be persistent.

P.S. -  RE:  Forex Traders - I posted a super-affiliate link relating to integrated (managerial) marketing today.  By looking at these integrated solutions, it shows you partially how you can manage your own affiliate force.  It will show you, through insights, that you can create your own products.

Respectfully,

Drupal - OPEN SOURCE

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

"Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using? I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm having a hard time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something unique." 


SOLUTION:

My blogger blog is rather drab...but I found an Amazing template at Word Press...made for handheld devices....which I will share once I reconfirm the name:

• For now..., my blogging style is kept very simple
• I am growing my audience as the primary aim
• I am getting to know everyone
• I am building loyalty...
• So as I do...

You can emulate some of my Word Press designs, if you choose.


Quick Style Is What I Use At Blogger:

• I use a university-style format of writing...because I am constantly reading high end textbooks
• ...and it is ...I hope...better to read than most 
• BUT..., people are telling me "go lighter".

THE TEXT here... IS HEAVY ON MY BLOGGER ACCOUNT (ADMITTEDLY)..and they don't give you much room inside of posts...or between posts.  It is one obvious limitation.

There are separating pages one can use inside of Blogger.

HOWEVER..,

Visual print has to be easy to read.

• Ad copy reads at an 8th grade level
• Verbage in Internet marketing is far more extensive...but going visual with videos is the way to go
• Icons are the appearing more and more!

• Organization is everything.
• BLOGGER -- is by far the least expensive (FREE) and easy to use

• Drupal is a nightmare

• Word Press - is -- once you have a favorite Word press template you select, you can emulate a favorite Word Press online, but you will have challenges still getting your right format in place

• Blogger has limitations
• It is not easy to use for handheld device fans
• I'm rectifying that challenge by pulling in Word Press..but even then these low cost formats aren't so hot. 

HERE'S WHY

• I have MUCH BETTER software for website designs

•  It's made for Internet marketers...and it's elegant

• I am still working through that software (so as to report how workable it is...but many who work with it all the time swear by it.)  I won't mention the name just yet.  I will give you an affiliate link within the next few days, however so please stay tuned!  This particular software will make website design and publishing great for you, if you are a strong writer. 

You start with blank pages (CSS), write your ad copy, and then publish right over to your domain through FTP  You own all files.  Site map submission isn't a big deal.  You can build your free reports, add pay buttons, and more!

Regarding Drupal --

• The security updates take forever to comb through and apply
• Because it is open source, it's not very user-friendly
• However, if you are having success with it and you like it, stick with it -- it is a personal choice
• It does many things...working mainly as a large interactive adjunct to a major content website
• It has several advantages and I could tell you specifically what Drupal can do, but I found it to be very troublesome and technologically frustrating.

I hope this helps.  Stay tuned!  I'm getting more Q's than I can efficiently answer so an interactive place is where most of us will be headed, if you like what I am sharing here.  You do want your own FORUM.  It is essential.  The person working with Drupal is attempting to service that need.

A Fan's Free Meal

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

One fan received a free meal when he or she showed this blog to another friend.

FIRSTLY:

• Congratulations regarding the FREE meal !
• Isn't it great when something wonderful for others happens?
• That's what Internet marketing...and well...about making wonderful friends online...helping one another progress 
• You want to be lucky for others
• And they will be lucky for you
• And somewhere in-between, you'll find business working much, much better.

SECONDLY:

I just published Life Cell...a major campaign, located in a prior post.  Check it out!

Please continue watching...but remember that there are no turnkey systems out there.  You are piecing together what you can...but ultimately, you are writing your content (ad copy), you are using your own banners...but you are connecting to others through use of the written word.  You are building your following, you are filtering through your following, you are putting them on a list, and then you are marketing products/services to that list using several varied marketing approaches.  There is no set ad copy on the communications side of it so you want to watch many Internet campaigns.  I opt into a variety of favorite marketer's newsletters but then watch them very carefully.  You will see the marketing at work.

Stay tuned.  I'm connecting the communication device to this blog -- S.O.P. for online marketers.

Lifecell - Major Campaign

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

I'm going to show you how M.D.'s are earning more than they thought possible leveraging the power of the Internet.

This is a major campaign and company located in Florida.


REALIZING:

• Some of you are looking for quick fixes BUT this isn't a way towards permanent solution...UNLESS YOU WANT TO CHECK OUT JENNIFER LEDBETTER'S ONE WEEK MARKETING PLAN.  SHE DOES DELIVER.
• I am not offering get rich quick schemes
• I am applying filters -- can you guess which ones they are?  HINT:  They drive you nuts and make you frustrated...on purpose.  Why?  Testing your resolve.
• Internet marketing and offline business requires major resolve and steady persistence
• A millionaire lifestyle is NOT what you'd think -- major work is involved.

BUT TAKE A LOOK:

Life Cell Creme

• All Copyrights Are Protected By U.S. Digital Laws
• This is for educational marketing purposes
• What you see on most successful websites securing steady business is that there is easy-to-find advertising, a place where consumers can interact readily (ads placed next to email for a major approach), and there's immediate chat.

Who's the target audience?  What are they selling?  How easy is site navigation?  All of these factors are highly relevant to a successful campaign.  I've tested this campaign, bought the product, and talked to people in the call center.  It is a real product.  It is also fabulous and works well.  Their customer service is unparalleled.

• SOME OF THE MOST PROFITABLE, MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR CAMPAIGNS ARE CALL CENTERS CONNECTED TO INTERNET PRODUCTS
• CALL CENTERS ON ORIGINAL PRODUCTS CAN GENERATE AS MUCH AS $60,000/MONTH....and more
• The big players play big...but they can lose it all in a month's time
• MLM's are call centers....when you look at them properly.

Stopping here.  Feel free to post your comments/suggestions.  I am adding some of you to my email correspondence, but as only you deem necessarily.  For fellow Internet marketers, I will not release any of your information to anyone....and I have finally found my free report content!

What Super-Affiliates Don't Share

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

What super-affiliates don't share are the software programs they use. That's the only difference between them and you.  Hopefully, they have more time under their belts...but they think large scale.  You are after ideas you can leverage and scale up much larger over time.  That's the key to retaining greater profits.  Product creation is part of that deal...but you will have other considerations to keep in mind. 


KNOW WHAT YOUR OPTIONS ARE BEFORE YOU CHOOSE:

Options in marketing help you plan your short, intermediate, and a long-term financial reality for the better. 
The more you know about options, the better prepared you are to make the decision, commit, and then act accordingly.  The finest marketers will always tell you, "Find one method you can implement, no matter how simple.  Start small -- make the sale.  Then repeat.  Once you hit that target repeatedly, then scale it up accordingly.

Direct Track and Impact Radius Are 2 Top Resources --

AFFILIATES WHO ARE LEARNING CAN

• MARKET SMALL AT FIRST
• SCALE UP
• GROW WITH DEMAND AS PROFITS BETTER SUPPORT DEDICATED HOSTING
• EARN 6 FIGURES/YEAR
• SUPER-AFFILIATES DO BETTER (when honest)
• There is 30% affiliate fraud online (not segmented by affiliates/super-affiliates).

Stay tuned.  Most of you are wonderfully present!  Some of you require more information, if you're serious about starting a business.  I am merely saying "what is"...nicely, of course.

More Helpful Q & A

Welcome Back Fellow Online Entrepreneurs!

Q's:

More of you are incoming..., asking a lot of Q's.  I'm choosing the most relevant ones that answer many Q's in one fell swoop, if that helps.

For the group marketing IM as a volunteer group --- you want to meet with your group to break up tasks, using the phones...through free teleconferencing, form timetables for getting the work done, then re-meeting to obtain critical updates:

*** Who's doing website creation?

*** Who's writing content?

*** Who's submitting to article directories?

*** Who's going to work on free traffic flow?

*** Who's working on videos?

*** Who's working on presentations and sales for the product(s) you're offering?

*** Who's offering support?

*** Who's building the list?

SOLUTION:  You will need a dedicated server in order to meet private product demand.

So be careful, start small, focus on profits growing and being reinvested back into the business.  Determine now who's going to take a profitable cut WHEN, HOW MUCH, and specify only by signed contracts what happens when people take pay, and who does what specifically.  Establish a team lead.  This will spare you terrible difficulties down the road often spent arguing in court (for no reason at all because of commonly-loose verbal agreements).  In court, nothing exists unless it's written on paper.

Make sure you can deliver to small numbers first, BEFORE you expand your marketing.  Expand slowly and gradually.  Many Internet marketers explode and quit before they make it to their next phase of business development.


Another Q:

Fantastic blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers?
I'm hoping to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for
a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any recommendations? Thanks!

A's: What do you live for?  Identify some of the niches that would jazz you! 

SOLUTION:  A secret many top super-affiliates will NOT admit.  They buy books from Amazon or Barnes and Noble...but they repurpose the work.  You want to be careful about doing this.  If you do it, tell others..."Yes...I do leverage books but so should you."!

Be prepared to tell people what they really need like:

PayPal
Clickbank

Give them free means:

Twitter
Google FREE website builders...but be careful, these free starters usually lead to paid marketing tools on the back end...and these are things you can get under one convenient umbrella.
Blogger
Ezinearticles
US Free Ads
CNN
BBC
Facebook
Google (Organic)
