Have you experienced e-mails from people just venturing forth in Internet marketing? Perhaps they are eager to hear advise from a seasoned veteran. Perhaps they are interested in joining one of your affiliate programs. Maybe they’ve just joined one of your programs and they need help getting off the ground.

It’s a good idea not to ignore newbies who reach out to you. You probably remember when you were just getting your feet wet in the world of IM. Having good advice at your disposal was no doubt instrumental in getting you off and running. Why not return the favor?

Remember the rule of Karma. When you do good to others, good things are done to you. Here are a few examples of how Karma can work in your favor when dealing with newbies.

1. You will feel good knowing that you had a part in
helping them build their business. You can sit back
and say “I had a part in their success.”

2. They may become one of your best friends. Most
people can use new friends, even business owners.
You may even become business partners and create
a totally new business together.

3. You could end up being strategic business allies
in the future. You could regularly do joint venture
and cross promotion deals with each other.

4. They may help you out with your business. Maybe
they will give you some testimonials or endorsements
for your products or services.

5. You might gain some valuable referrals from them.
They may also join your affiliate program and make
sales for your business.

6. They might offer you some free advertising space
on their web site or in their e-zine for your help. You
could also exchange advertising with them.

7. You both could end up developing a new product
or service together. The product or service could be
a combination of your current ones.

8. They might purchase the products you sell and
become one of your best customers. You could sell
them many back end products or services in the
future.

Following the rules of karma in regards to helping newbies isn’t only the right thing to do, but it can also pay off in a big way.

Profitable Ways to Use Autoreponders

 Fragrance  Comments Off on Profitable Ways to Use Autoreponders
Dec 192021
 

For a successful online business you need to develop your own list.Autoresponders not only answer your mailings but also give repeated exposure to your products and effectively increasing sales.
An interested visitor who has been strolling through your
site has finally come to just what she is looking for and
is about to make a purchase. It’s a sunny afternoon, and
her cat, who happens to be sitting on the moss under the
visitor’s large fifty-year-old snow-rose bonsai tree,
suddenly jumps down, and the priceless tree topples over.

In the blink of an eye, your visitor exits your site, and
your sale is dust – unless you have had the foresight to
utilize an autoresponder that has captured her email
address. If you have installed an autoresponder, you can
then follow-up with her, and in all probability, make the
sale when the poor woman has finished repotting her
precious bonsai.

Autoresponders are remarkable, versatile programs that do
so much more than just automatically answer your email.
Here are a few ideas that will help you to creatively and
productively use your autoresponder to transform the casual
visitor into a profitable customer. Use your autoresponder
to:

1. Publish a newsletter. Certain quality autoresponders
will manage subscriptions and follow-up with interested
prospects. Your newsletter can keep your visitors informed
about your services or products, while building your
reputation as a credible expert in your particular
business.

2. Publish a newsletter only for your affiliates. Inform
them of current sales you are running and of promotional
material that your affiliates can use themselves to
increase their commissions. Include tips, advice, and
techniques that your affiliates can use to successfully go
out and promote your business.

3. Write reviews. Cover books, software, music, e-books,
movies, etc., and put each review in an autoresponder.
Review your affiliate programs, using a link to your
affiliate’s page in your autoresponder.

4. Distribute your articles. Writing and distributing
targeted articles is a powerful tool to build your business
credibility, bring traffic to your site, and increase your
sales potential. If your articles contain valuable
information, many editors will print what is known as a
resource box for you. A resource box contains your bio and
a brief description of your service or product. It can also
contain your autoresponder address. Let’s say you’ve
written fifty articles. Put them on separate autoresponder
accounts and create a master list that contains the titles
of each article, the autoresponder address, and a brief
abstract. Then promote your master list. Additionally,
include your publishing guidelines so your affiliates can
add their articles to your list, increasing the number of
writers who are represented in your article list.

5. Create mailing lists. Inform subscribers to your
articles when you’ve written new ones that they may want to
publish in their own newsletter or website.

6. Automate your sales process. Use an ad to insure
repeated exposure of your message, which has been proven to
effectively increase sales. In your ad, put your
autoresponder address where a visitor will be exposed to
numerous marketing materials. This multiplies the chances
of converting visitors into customers. For example, if
you’re selling a particular product, put testimonials about
how spectacular it is on your autoresponder, and add a
detailed, enticing description of your product.

7. Distribute advertising. Let’s say you sell advertising
on your website or in your newsletter or e-zine. Set your
autoresponder to send the information about rates and how
to place an ad automatically to all prospects’ email
addresses. Then have your autoresponder follow-up. It can
also send notification of any special deals you are
currently offering.

8. Distribute an email course. Each day, have your
autoresponder send out another lesson. Just be sure that
each lesson has quality content – not a sales pitch. Your
content will do the selling for you, and will do it much
more effectively. You can include tips centered on a
different topic for each lesson, illustrating how your
product will benefit the reader. Include the tangible
benefits the visitor will reap by purchasing your product.
Make sure to include a paragraph or two at the end of each
lesson enticing your prospect to consider making a
purchase.

9. Automate a reminder about your service or product after
a visitor has completed your course. This will increase the
possibility of sales from visitors who have taken your
course but are dragging their feet about actually making a
purchase. You can also use these reminders to promote new
products or services, and the products and services of your
affiliate programs.

10. Distribute free reports. This gives your visitor an
idea of the type of information you can provide and the
quality of your product or service. Make sure these reports
are not sales letters or you will more than likely lose a
potential customer than gain a sale.

11. Create trivia quizzes on your site and place the
answers in an autoresponder. Your visitor will then be
motivated to request your autoresponder, and you will have
a record of the visitors’ email addresses who took your
quiz. Or create a contest and have any visitors that enter
send their responses to your autoresponder. Your
autoresponder can be set-up to send them a confirmation of
their entry.

12. Offer a trial version of your product. Give your
prospects a sample of your ebook, course, software,
membership, etc. People who are exposed to a little taste
often end up wanting the whole pie. You can also capture
their email addresses when you offer them a free trial from
your website. Set up your autoresponder to give
instructions on how to obtain their free trial, and then
make sure to follow-up to try and close the sale.

13. Link to hidden pages on your autoresponder. For
example, a hidden page could be your affiliate page that
contains graphics, promotional articles, and text links
that interested affiliates can make use of. Inform visitors
that they may have free access to your affiliate page by
simply requesting your autoresponder. You will then gather
a list of visitors who may be interested in becoming your
affiliates.

14. Use an autoresponder on your order page. Post a request
form for visitors to be notified of special offers or
discounts in the future. This creates a very effective
mailing list that contains the names of people who are
already your customers.

15. Put your links page on your autoresponder. It should
contain up to fifty links that would be of particular
interest to your visitors. Make sure to add your own
promotional copy at the top or bottom of this page.

Now that you have proof that autoresponders can be used
creatively, see if you can come up with some brilliant
ideas of your own!

The Cons of Online Auction Sites Like Ebay

 Fragrance  Comments Off on The Cons of Online Auction Sites Like Ebay
Dec 182021
 

EBay has over 120 million registered users and it can be a great place to make extra money by selling what you now longer need or even starting a business. My wife and I used to have 7 employees doing Ebay full time and we were making a net of about $8,000 per week. But what about the buyers? They shop sites like Ebay hoping to find lower prices on items that they are looking at buying any way. A pair of pants that sells at American Eagle for $40 and here it is ion Ebay for only $30. Is this a deal or what? But wait, after you pay the $12 shipping you are actually spending more.

Sites like Ebay are like a drug. People keep bidding on items going higher and higher in price because they will do anything to win. People get in a frenzy and by the time they have won the item they have paid a lot more then they could have gotten that same item for at a local store. Once in awhile this would not be that bad but what about the people that keep on repeating this? The cannot provide the basic necessities for their kids because most of their money is being spent on these online auction sites like Ebay. Yahoo has auction, amazon auctions, Ubid the list just goes on and on.

People need to truly look only for deals. Maybe by looking for items with free shipping. I sold video games that by the time somebody one the item and you add shipping they were still paying less than they would have paid at the local game store. Bargains can be found you just have to look for them. Also look at the sellers user rating and read what past customers have to say about them.

Another area which can be very disastrous is all the scams that are on these online auction sites. I know one gentleman who was selling a car on Ebay. Some Nigerian won the auction and sent the seller a check for the amount of the auction plus a lot of money extra. The Nigerian said the rest was to pay for shipping and if the seller could please wire the balance back by Western Union. The check was counterfeit and by the time the bank realized this it was too late. The seller had already wired several thousand to the buyer via Western Union. He had deposited the check in his account and the bank gave him the funds right away. Now this man is in jail, owes the bank the money for the check, and his car was seized by the FBI because it was used in the act of a crime. This was this mans first time in jail and I think he ended up spending a month there.

Ebay would offer no help because they claim it is a liability issue. There are so many buyers and sellers out there and they all are potential victims. You would think that sites like Ebay, amazon,Yahoo, and the others would issue a warning to their buyers and sellers but they don’t. My wife and I once got paid for some computers with stolen checks. We did everything that a responsible merchant would do like calling the bank they were drawn from and doing everything that we knew to do. I had to spend almost a month in jail for this and jail is no place I wish to have to go back to. We lost 3 years of our lives because of this plus we lost out business. This is happening to millions of people worldwide.

It should be a law that if you have a site like Ebay that you need to protect your buyers and sellers but unfortunately it is not. There are no second chances with an online auction site like Ebay. With sites like Ebay you need to be careful if you are just a buyer.

Automtotive Sales Training.

Automotive sales training is the one thing that we all think

we have enough of until we get more. That’s right no matter

how good you are today, you can always become better. And

once we do get a little bit better or learn a new technique

it is normally pretty easy to reflect back on the deals that

we have worked in the not so distant past and think, “Wow, If

I had only known this last week when I was with “Mr. & Mrs

__________, I probably would have sold them a car.



This is why this column will be dedicated solely to the purpose

of examining different aspects and situations that occur during

the process of a car deal. Each month we will look either at a

new method for contending with the obstacles that we all face

in the day to day process or we will brush up on old techniques

regarding the automotive sales process.



I am sure every automotive salesperson reading this article

has encountered the customer that came to their dealership

looking for a certain vehicle, requiring specific “must have”

options yet was strapped by a budget that was several hundred

dollars a month away from anything that could be considered

reasonable, at least considering the demands the customer is

making. And after our best attempt to find them the vehicle

that meets all of their requirements, in the hope that they

will adjust their thinking when it comes down to their less

than reasonable budget, we find that they are not flexible at

all. That’s right, they want a brand new, seven passenger,

leather appointed, suv for $300 a month. And if we can’t get

it for them then they are just going to shop until they find

someone who can. Or so they say. But what they will really shop

for is someone who can sell them on the idea of buying something

that fits their needs just as well as what they are requesting

but is more in line with their budget – possibly a previously

owned suv or maybe even a minivan.



That’s right; they are going to buy from the first salesperson

that is capable of realigning their thinking. By realigning

their thinking I mean they need to be “switched”. Many

salespeople I witness think this means that they should go

back to their customer and ask, “Hey, what about a used one?”

or “What about a minivan instead of an suv?” If you have been

in the business for more than a day you know that the customer

normally responds by saying “No” to these two questions. Asking

your customer to buy something other than what they initially

asked for is at best, a feeble attempt to switch them and

definitely does not exhibit any salesmanship.



At this point you need to lead your customer. You need to become

a salesperson. You need to share with them the benefits in order

to help them realign their thinking. Below are the steps to take

if you are trying to switch your customer.



+ Determine which vehicle to switch to first (preferably

something that is close to what they are looking for yet more

in line with their budget)



+ Ask your customer to come with you for a moment (don’t ask

them if they would like to look at something else)



+ Take them to the vehicle that you want to switch them to.



+ Then present all of the benefits of the vehicle you are

trying to switch them to.



By taking the extra time to actually take your customer out

and show them a vehicle that suits their needs (and is in

line with their budget) you will increase your chances of

selling them. Once you have taken these steps to switch them

from one car to another one of three things will happen.



+ They will consider the vehicle you have shown them (And

hopefully buy it)



+ They will reconsider their budget on the vehicle they

originally expressed an interest in and hopefully increase

their offer enough that you can sell them it.



+ They will not consider the option you are giving them and

leave without purchasing. (however you will have more to talk

about on the follow up phone call)



Sure to many of you this may seem pretty basic. To me it is

too. But remember that next time you want to just ask your

customer to consider another vehicle rather than taking control

and leading your customer to an alternative vehicle for them to

purchase.

Why Deploy Employee Surveys?

 Fragrance  Comments Off on Why Deploy Employee Surveys?
Nov 052021
 

From postcards on the table at your favorite restaurant to

letters after a brief hospital stay tucked in with your

prescriptions, surveys represent the most effective way to

secure an honest answer to: How did we do? More recently,

these surveys have made their way into the workplace,

providing a method of gauging employee attitudes at the

office.

Spending 40 hours or more every week with the same people,

there’s no question what type of outlook you want these people

to have. A positive employee with a can-do attitude takes the

prize every time, and not just because of how pleasant it

makes things in the workplace. Happy employees create a more

efficient office, primarily by sticking around.

Toby Velte, former CEO of FireSummit, Inc., knew the way to

his employees’ heart, and it wasn’t increased pay. He

recognized that his employees were after more than just

compensation; they wanted to be happy while they were at the

office. He obliged with supplying a game room, free soda, and

network video game sessions.

“We paid 15 percent less than other companies,” said Velte.

“But … I never had one person quit.” Knowing what his

employees wanted gave Velte a leg up in limiting turnover, one

of the worst sieves of company profits. With estimates of

turnover costs at 150% of the employees’ yearly salary (more

for newer employees or management), it makes sense to make the

effort to find out what makes your company culture tick, and

how to open the lines of communication with employees. In the

end, it means keeping the customers happy, which starts with

employees excited to be at the office.

Clients, after all, have an uncanny ability to know the

general manner of everyone they come in contact with. Be it

the smile in the employees’ voice, the relaxed way in which

the employee deals with the customer, or just a bit of a sixth

sense, that attitude flows through and affects the overall

relationship. Surveys have shown that customers who feel a

kinship with a company will remain loyal customers, and it

follows that maintaining that connection stems from creating a

positive work environment.

Surveying employees about their impressions of their employer

is the best indicator of the overall culture in a company.

This culture will permeate every aspect of the organization

affecting co-workers and clients alike. But just surveying a

company’s employees isn’t enough.

Velte made sure that he knew where he stood compared to his

competitors as well as what his employees expected in the

workplace. Competition is fierce in today’s market, and

companies who pay attention have an edge over those working in

a void. With headhunters cold calling lists of employees in

every industry these days, knowing what’s offered by the

competition can go a long way toward heading off expensive

employee turn over.

The cost of employee dissatisfaction can be remarkable, and

many companies try to prevent the loss of employees by

throwing money at them. While it may work for a little while,

the undermining factors will go unnoticed, resulting in

throwing more money at the problem. With employee surveys,

however, it can be easier to see where the money should be

going, and often companies find that their costs go down

significantly.

Employ

ee surveys are one of the necessary steps in identifying

problems and opportunities for improvement. Then, using these

survey results and a benchmarking database, a company can

determine what the trends are for their industry, and where

they stand compared to their competitors. There’s a reason,

after all, that Fortune magazine publishes a “Best Companies

to Work For” edition every year, and that pay is only one

factor that they consider.

Why Look for Good Internet Deals and Daily Freebies?

 Fragrance  Comments Off on Why Look for Good Internet Deals and Daily Freebies?
Nov 032021
 

Every day, more and more consumers are realizing that shopping on the internet means good, or even great deals that just aren’t available at the traditional brick and mortar establishments in their local communities. The smaller stores are out and about on the Internet dangling some of these mega-deals on a fishing line with the hopes that you’ll bite and possibly buy an additional item or two from them “while you’re at it”, or later on down the river. Either way, your name, address and email address are all in their database for future e-mail campaigns and catalogs.

Even the big, national chain stores are enticing their customers to shop online with phenomenal deals that are available “Online Only”. Why? These corporations already have a warehouse to store their merchandise until its ready to be shipped to the store. At the store level, the products need to be taken off of the truck and inventoried before it can be set onto the sales floor to be sold. The store needs lights, heat/cooling and employees to maintain, sell and ring up the merchandise, and perhaps even bring it out to you car. When the item is sold on the Internet, the consumer pays shipping charges, which includes unloading the item from the truck and carrying it to your front door. It now costs the store substantially less money to sell you the product. The end result is a cheaper price for you, the consumer when shopping on the Internet.

Free shipping is one of the fabulous incentives used by both small and large companies to persuade you to spend more money on their website, typically tiered or leveled at a pre-set, specific dollar amount. Although nominal handling charges may still apply, having your internet deal shipped to you for free is even better than when you find a bargain at your local store, as you didn’t need to use any expensive fuel to get to the store, nor will you come home from shopping with the infamous crowd-causing headache.

And who doesn’t love something for free? “Daily Freebies” are all over the Internet (and there are new ones every day, too!), you just need to know where to look for them. Listings include product samples, promotional products with discounts and other types of free offers.

To assist you in gathering the necessary information for a successful shopping experience, there are websites devoted especially to your cause. These newfound genius sites not only compile all of this useful information for you, but they organize it into categories. From clothing and accessories to CD’s, gifts and coupons, they’ve got your shopping needs covered!
