Stephen Pierce Book

I recently came across a copy of 'Make Real Money On The Internet' by Stephen Pierce. Written in 2008, the information is still very helpful and covers selecting a micro-niche, delivering products to that niche, putting your business on autopilot and getting traffic to your site. I was familiar with most of the points that were covered, but if you are just starting out, this is an excellent reference and an easy, enjoyable read. Pierce's story itself is quite inspiring.

My takeaways from the book:

perform keyword research by focusing on trigger words - play, how to, help, order, buy, learn, instructions, training, tutorial, tip.
when you learn to generate traffic, you will become an expert and a person that is in-demand
take risks
if you can't write, there are many other ways to get your info product created
capture your customer information
get to the point that your whole business runs on auto-pilot

Opt-in Forms

I spent today creating opt-in forms for each of my blogs. Mind you, other than this one on blogger, which is so easy to install, I have no idea what to do next. My other blogs are in Wordpress and have to be copied into the HTML code. For a non-techie like me, that is a big deal. Update: With the newer versions of Wordpress and the use of widgets with most themes, adding an opt-in form is now as easy as on a Blogger blog. I went to Aweber and created my form, copied the code that's produced and pasted it into my HTML widget. And I even sound like a techie, don't I? Until next time, Carol

Youtube Videos - Are You Using Them?

Creating more Youtube videos is on my to-do list for this spring. But I think I need to take a lesson from my granddaughter's future husband and learn to use humor much more than I do. Here is a recent video he created to give you an idea of what I mean. Don't miss the surprise ending. Until next time, Carol

Jet Lag and NAMS 4

Okay, it wasn't a jet, but I did take a 747 to NAMS. And yes, I've been back for a week now. But it takes me a while to recover so you won't get all the juicy details for a bit longer yet. All I can say is I took loads of notes, hung out with some amazing people, and wish they didn't live so far away. I learned a lot and really enjoyed the sessions with Bob 'The Teacher' Jenkins, Karon Thackston, and Kathleen Gage. Of course all of the presenters were great, but those three I got the most from. And I had a 15 minute consultation with Mark Hendricks as well. The last NAMS I didn't think I had anything to discuss with him, but this time I forced myself to sign up. I was super nervous, but he was very easy to talk to, and he actually liked my idea for a membership site. I'll talk more about that another time. Once I get my notes organized, I'll give you my top ten takeaway points. Now the challenge is to do them, not stay in learning mode. So
