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

Our Mastermind Progress

I mentioned in the last post that I was going to be involved in a mastermind group to help promote one another. So far we have met once on Skype and twice on a teleseminar. These are my observations so far: Our Skype meeting was a lot of fun, but didn't accomplish much. I don't use Skype often and the others did only for one on one text chats. When the first two members got on Skype, it was fine, we could see and hear one another well. As soon as someone else entered the call, the video capability was lost. Once four of us were on (member number five couldn't attend that day) it was hard to hear properly. There was a lot of phone interference and we kept getting dropped from having a group call. We finally gave up and called it a day. The next two sessions we've used a teleseminar service. I have a free trial for InstantTeleseminars so we used that. The advantage here over freeconferencecalling.com is that there were local phone numbers for the American members of our...

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
