Answer Upon - List Building - You Have to Target to Hit Your Goal
According to the Guinness book of World Records the Greatest Salesman of all time was Joe Girard. During his fifteen year selling career, he sold 13,001 cars … an amazing feat. What was his secret? Greeting Cards! Every month, every person who had ever bought a car from him got a greeting card. It didn’t matter if it was Christmas, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, or the person’s birthday ... Joe was a card sending machine!By sending cards Joe was able to keep his name in fron
You also get untargeted traffic from banner exchanges, traffic exchanges, and any other form of advertising that is just served up to the viewer. Is it worth it? The price is right because it's usually free, right? But there are some things you should consider. The first is how much time do you waste on these untargeted methods, when you could be using it to get targeted traffic? Wouldn't it be more productive to write in a blog or make a podcast?

As a manager, would you fire an employee that made a mistake? It probably depends on the degree of the mistake. You probably wouldn't fire an employee that forgot to attend a staff meeting. But you probably would fire an employee that stole from the company.I became interested in this topic after reading an article from USA Today in which an American Airlines pilot was fired for showing up on the job intoxicated. The pilot was removed from the flight because another employee smelled al
I've written so many times about how to get your squeeze page in front of people's eyes, and that remains true, also. You have to drive all the traffic you can to your list building page, be it from pay-per-click, a blog, or paid ezine advertising. But just what kind of traffic should that be?
You want traffic that's already interested in what you have to sell--targeted web site traffic. So, let's say that you're using press releases to drive traffic to your site, and that you write about the newest, hottest game on the market and how you've just invented it. There's a link to your site embedded in the release, right? OK, so people who click that link know that they're going to see something about gaming. They won't even be surprised when you ask them to join your gaming list. When they join and see that your thank you page is to buy your new game, they might even be interested in buying it, right?
You have targeted traffic in that instance. The people who come to your site already have interest in the niche, they want to know more about it, and they may be interested in buying your niche's products, be it your product or someone else's. You can get this kind of traffic from teleseminars, article marketing, and most of the 17 ways there are to get targeted traffic to your site.
People who know nothing about your or your product when they come to your list building page are untargeted. It's hit or miss. They may be interested, and they may not. Think about a radio advertisement. You're just forced to listen to it, unless you switch channels. So, let's say you hear a radio spot advertising lipstick. Well, how many of the people listening to the ad will be interested in lipstick? Probably just the women, right? OK. Do you think you'll sell much lipstick to the men in the audience? No! Will the ad make them change their minds on this? Of course it won't.

I spoke to a new business owner today. Two months ago, Joan launched her meeting planning company. Two weeks into her new business, she signed her first contract with her first client. To get that client, she called the four organizations with whom she had volunteered. This is a great example of how involvement in your community can result in business.As a speaker, I set aside one or two days a month for donated speeches to community groups. Once, I gave a speech to a high

No I am not talking about the classic board game, that Aunt Hester bought you the past two years for your birthday! Risk is what first time visitors to your website views your product as. Before they spend their hard earned money they want to know that your product is worth it. Shoppers today see so many offers, so many sales pitches that they are trained to be skeptical about many products.This is even more the case when selling over the internet because many of your potential custome

What does your business image say? Every business has its own professional image in the marketplace. When you stop to think about your image, what would you like it to be? Does your customer perceive it the same way as you do?Business image is an opinion or concept. The opinion or concept can be from a customer, supplier, manufacturer, advertiser, creditor, banker or anyone your home business deals with. It is determined by appearance and verbal or nonverbal communication. It can be ho
