2008-Sep-5 - Its been a Minute,Please Forgive but Read On...

What I am abo to tell you is 100% true and totally Wrong! I was alst online on Aug 14th or 15th. On my daughters Birthday Aug 9 I received a letter from my landload with a Legal Eviction paper in from that was writen up ny the "Shefeffs Department". I was told to be out by Aug 15th at 8 am, that was less than a week away.

I was totally fried, had no clu where I was goig or even where to begin as by law if you are eveicted you loose your "Section 8" Voucher. What saved me? The Landlard would not show his face. HUD cold not contact him and he was supose to contact hem 1st, not tak matters into his own hnds.

For days I went thining I had lost my voucher, I am awaiting a BIG Settlement on my Disability but that is still ways off. Which the money I ake oline is all there is and some months have hurt wit less than $50. I called Legal Aid, they would NOT take case as I had no receipts for where I had paid my rent. He wopuld NOT ACCEPT what Setion 8 has specified as my rent. So I had No Receipts. No Emergency Housing...all Program are for those that are able to work and that have lost a good job and their home but can return to the work force. I am unable to do that...this is my exent of what I am able to do.

Finally The Dam Broke!

Section 8 called me and said that due to the fact that the landlord had pulled a no show, plus did not contact them that there was even an issue regarding rent that I could pick up an Emergency Voucher Friday Morning (th 15th of Aug). We had found a place, not the ideal (as if he would of done this normally

 we would be livig in a home that is only 3 years old and very similar to my other house with a rent to buy option). This is place here though is nice, and i am wamng to it.

But can you imagine the pressure, I am sre some of you have been there. Anyway we have made it back online, having the ButterflyScript installed and I just purchased www.LaurieBrandt.com I plan to put my WorpPress Blog n it and transfer all date from here. So wothin a few weeks that is were I new Blog wil be at with many more options. I am working on Pluginsm color schemes so t all fits YSWs new look.

I know this story is totally Bizare. I have a Gift or 2, you are receiving the pre-releaseses that have no covers, There will be covers but you get the 1st copies, plus a few more. This is the BLOG THAT PACKS PUNCH!

Hopefully all is back on track, with everyones help it will be...a few sites from BFMS:

• Pro Dating Site

2008-Jul-26 - Content...Is It A 7 Letter Bad Word?

Content? It's everywhere. But how and when do you know it is QUALITY? I just watched part of an up an coming Marketer and his views on how to know you have good content. I beg to differ. Content can be so many things and I have watched the Net mutate like a new species of foreign matter.

How does one keep up with it all? Bottom line...You Can't! So what do you do? Yeah you can spend day in and day out attempting to gain this much needed or not needed info or you can grab a few ideals and work with them.

I sit in amazement at all the new mutations of this and that and to be a so - called expert you should know them all. Wrong again. If you listen to and believe even ½ of what you see and hear these days shut your PC down and walk away. It is a massive set up for failure. Sure there are a few Golden nuggets that are awesome, those are the ones you need to concern yourself with.

The Internet appears to be a Contest and in many ways it is, who has the most, the biggest, the best, the everything. Keep it simple. Don't overwhelm yourself. We all want success, but we are not all going to get it. But that does not in anyway mean you can't or won't make money.

Your best strategy is to follow the leader. There are many but pick out one or two, or three if needed and focus on them, what they do, how do it etc. You will gain more than trying to absorb everything and go know where from overload of the brain. Instead of blowing up your PC you will blow up a blood vessel in your brain.

Slow down...I highly do not recommend over 2 Mentors/Leaders, whatever you choose to call them. No maybe you can't afford all their products but I have a few trade secrets that can get you in for free. Actually I have an entire Report of “How To Get What You Need For Free!” And trust me it works.

One thing I will share with you is this; offer testimonials, the better, they will soon come to you an ask for them. So if you want the stress of trying to get ahead (all the while falling behind as you are on overload) to become a fun learning process, try what I have said above.

Start with what you are interested in...From there pick out who you like best that does what you enjoy. Then just go with it. Email and ask questions, do not be shy. Most of these guys put out freebies, grab them. Learn by their example then something will hit you that will move you to create. Listen to the seminars when they have them available. Here is a list:

• Teleseminars (Ask as many questions as you can get in)

• Webinars

• Audios

• Videos

• Free Reports

• Sign Up for all they have

• Plus anything else you see they have that you can afford, free, or close to free

Now on to fast Free Stuff! Go to http://www.ad-alyzer.com/727/ForOnlyOneDollar

Also at http://yoursuccesswealth.com you can get Free Graphics Pro for a Limited Time FREE! Times are tight and no you do not have to be an expert at everything to have great content. Great content comes from within and we all have some in us, reach in pull it out and use to your advantage!

If you are interested in that report on getting things free, send me an email, the report is $19.95 but if you mention you saw it here in this Article you can save $5! It is worth Thousands and when you read, listen and see it you will know why. If you want to get on a great quality freebie list at www.yoursuccesswealth.com is a box for the trial that will get you in. Hurry only a limited amount of copies currently available at this special price. The report will eventually sell for $67 or more! OK, go get those free PRO GRAPHICS, I will even throw in throw in a few extra freebies when you send an email saying in subject line, send me my freebies from Article. You will get some really awesome stuff, but keep in mind for one small $1 you get a Pro Membership for 1 month Trial, all the downloads you please and if there is something you do not see (as my Inventory is Large) just ask, there is a 99% chance I have it and will gladly send it to you.

I also put anything you want on Hard Copy (DISK) and for small shipping and handling of $5.77 for CD or $7.77 for DVD I will send it direct to you. So when we speak content, it is absolutely awesome. Keep up the happy hunting and learning , please remember to keep it simple. Till Next Time!

2008-Jul-18 - Unspoken, But Crucial To Your Online Success

Hey Guys,

In the beginning there was the marketer. There are certain truths you come to understand the more time you spend making money online – or trying to.

Witness the evolution of marketing online. Whether you are new to the net game or an experienced pro, there is one thing you will have in common if you are moving towards entrepreneurial success.

As you read this article you will realize what you have in common with all the other million dollar earners online, and what you’re missing that can take you from where you are to where you want to be.

So let’s get started shall we?

I will begin with a bullet point list and short explanation of the marketing necessities you want to have:

For starters, most established markets will already be using this by default:

- A Domain: something specific to what you want to promote like (ex.www.mysite.com)

- Hosting: a place to put your site, if you’re planning on making money – find a paid solution so you look like a credible business and you cut back on high traffic crashes.

- A website: your image your presence and your marketing message, don’t get pulled into the trap I see everywhere of trying to put too many choices on your website. Maximize on the effectiveness by only giving one purpose to a page. For example if you want to build a list - focus all your efforts and copy on that singular focus, if you want your site to sell a product, then only put that focus on your site. You’ll also need a good editing program, and an ftp software to get this up and moving.

- A merchant account: If you have something to sell, people will need a way to pay you. There are a ton of great providers out there, but there are a specific few that give your visitors the security to pull out a credit card with assurance.

- An Autoresponder: This is a real necessity if you want a business and not just a hobby. When you have a family to support this is a real no brainer. This is your email follow up service. You get a name added to your list and this is where they go. You will use this to stay in touch and build relationships with your customers and soon-to-be customers.

- A helpdesk: in the beginning when your business and sales are small you can handle all the little questions and emails yourself. One of the things that will keep a small business is small is thinking “I can do that myself” if you want to truly grow; you need to share the workload (petty tasks) and focus on what you truly want to do creatively for your business.

- Membership Site software: once you’re addicted to the internet marketing lifestyle, you will realize this oh-so-simple fact, it’s great to make a sale, but it’s even better to make a sale once and get paid for it every month. Continuity is king.

- Teleconferencing software: If you want an easy way to create and crank out high ticket products, audios and a transcript is an easy to make, high-value product.

Of course everything we’ve touched on so far only scratches the surface, but these are the necessities that not only get you started but will make you above average. Keep your eyes peeled for more articles that will take you from beginner to winner.

We’ll cover resources that will help you stay organized and expand your business to make you truly prosperous such as:

-PDF creators and converters
- Mind mapping software
- Site tools to make your business a set and forget it – money magnet
- Internet video and audio creating software
- And the how-to’s of outsourcing

Keep learning, and most important: be persistent – it will be a quality you share with the biggest money makers online today…

2008-Jun-22 - How To Create Your Own Products

How To Create Your Own Products

Don't be scared by the idea of creating your own product. Instead think about the benefits of developing and marketing your own product or service. Improved financial status. Peace of mind. More time to spend with your family. All this can happen to you. Not to mention tremendous fun of promoting your own work. Getting excited? Become an expert at something Everyone's good at something and I am sure that you too have a lot to say about a particular subject. And it really doesn't matter if it's baseball, or rocket science - the bottom line is that you can easily create your own products and then market them like crazy. Just sit down and recall everything you know about your area of expertise. Now pick up a pencil and a piece of paper. Write 10 product ideas related to your experience, hobbies, interests and background. This is important. You must have passion for what you do. If you don't, you're not likely to succeed. Not an authority yet? Become one! And if you feel you're not an authority on any subject, don't worry. Thanks to the Internet, you can easily become an expert by spending some time and digesting all the information you can find on the subject. Try searching on http://www.edithroman.com (one of the oldest and largest list brokerages in the U.S.) or a search engine. I recommend http://www.google.com - it provides relevant results. Don't be the first, be the best! Browse the Web. See what others are selling. Create a similar product, only better. As simple as that. This technique is called copy-cat and is extremelly effective. You don't have to reinvent the wheel. Look what others are marketing and do better than them. I am not encouraging you to violate copyrights and steal someone's work. You have to develop your own terrific product, with unique benefits and unbelievable value. Important Questions I'll assume that you've written at least 10 product ideas. Below you'll find a list of 5 questions. Run every product idea through that list. Will the product be valuable to my prospects? Will your customers feel that they've gotten more than their money's worth from your product? If not, don't bother. Such a product will waste your reputation. Your customers will feel cheated and you'll never get repeat business. And without repeat business you'll fail. Will the information I provide be genuine and honest? One of my customers (mind you, newbie to Internet Marketing) createdd a "How To Become A Millionaire On The Internet" guide. She hardly got any sales and asked me what she was doing wrong. I told her that information she was providing wasn't sincere. She wasn't making any money online, yet she wanted to teach others how to do it big time. That's not a good business. Never ever do such a thing. Always provide genuine information. Your customers will detect if you're dishonest and will move their business elsewhere. Will I enjoy developing and marketing the product? I am stressing this again: your product idea should be related to your experience, hobbies, interests and background. You must feel the passion for what you're doing, else you'll use interest. Do what you love and the money will follow. Is there a demand for the product? Face it. Without a demand your product will flop. Your product needs to be more than something you know. You must offer something that people desire. Find out what people want before you develop your product. Don't make the common mistake by creating the product first and looking for its market later. Identifying your target market is absolutely essential. Make no mistake - you don't want to create a product and then see if anyone is willing to buy it. You want to find out what people really want. Once you do, move in and go for the kill! People will be more than happy to buy if your product is what they want. Without making any moral judgements, let's think about thousands of **** websites on the Internet. The reason for their abundance It's easier than you think! Creating your own product is easier than you think. You should be able to develop your own information product in less than 30 hours. Just pick up keyboard and start typing! If you don't consider yourself a great writer, don't worry! Make sure that your sentences are short and crisp - this will drastically reduce number of grammar mistakes. In either case you'll have a chance to proof read your content later. And if you do it right - it will be very rewarding. Identify your target market Several aeons ago when the Internet was very small the advertisers had a very good idea who they were targeting. Vast majority of Internet users were male and possessed a high income and good education. Like it or not - these times are gone for good. If you are to succeed on the Internet, you must identify your niche and gather intelligence to learn all about your target market. Once you do that, you can greatly increase your profits by providing what they want, and not what you have in store. The simplest and easiest technique to define your audience and identify your target market is to put yourself in shoes of people who are interested in purchasing your product or service. Use your imagination to visualize your preferred customer and write down as much as you know about him/her. You can start by asking yourself these questions: How old are they? Did you know that the number of women using the Internet has risen dramatically in recent months? A study by NetSmart America shows that 58% of new Internet users in the US are women (up from 44% a year ago). This trend is likely to continue. What is their gender? If you plan to market your product or service to a specific age group, you should consider shifting current content to meet expectations and interests of that particular group. The Internet has always been attractive to youthful users, but senior citizens with an abundance of time and money are a market with a huge potential. A study by Greenfield Central shows that, contrary what most people think, most online seniors are comfortable with making purchases over the Internet (92% have shopped and 78% have purchased!). Online senior shoppers usually buy computer software (43%) and hardware (24%), books (43%), music CDs (29%) and ***** (27%). How much do they earn? I've mentioned it before and I'll repeat it again: you must find a target market with money to spend. If you're marketing luxurious items, it doesn't make sense to spend advertising dollars to get college students to your website. Instead, you'll be much better off focusing on richer audience, like businessmen, bankers etc. How and where can you find them? What offline publications do they read? What are their gathering places on the Internet? What newsletters/ezines are do they subscribe? Are there particular discussion boards/forums/Usenet newsgroups they participate in? Answering these questions may not only help you to create better products (by learning more about your preferred customers and their problems), but it will also give you an idea where to put your ad dollars. Where are they from? What are their hobbies? What are their exact problems that your product/service solves? ... the list of questions goes on and on. Don't stop until you've got a profile of a living customer that is so real and convincing, that you can see that person standing in front of you. I can hear you crying: - Why all this? What's the use?! The reason for all this is that there is not point in telling the whole world about your product or service. Besides, you probably can't afford it (nor can I). What you can and should do however, is selectively identify those of your potential customers who are most likely to buy. Would you nuke entire city simply because your neighbors pissed you off? No? Why not? That'd be a waste of energy, resources and a bunch of good people who live in that city. Targeting your neighbors alone is another story, though. And that's exactly what niche marketing is about: finding your target market (people who are most likely to be interested in purchasing your product) and striking at them - making them buy your product or service. See my point? If you focus on your niche, your leads will be of much better 'quality' - your potential customers will be more likely to purchase your product or service. Don't try to be "everything to everyone". Narrow down your marketing efforts to a carefully selected niche and see your Internet profits soar! Wishing You The Best In Success, Laurie Brandt

2008-Jun-21 - Intro To Landing Pages (Report)

Introduction to Landing Pages

Before you begin the attempt to build a successful list or create a powerful salespage, you will want to start with a rigorous introduction to landing pages. In stark contrast to undifferentiated, unfocused home pages, landing pages focus specifically on capturing leads for a newsletter or making sales for a specific product – and make no attempt to give visitors a different option.

Another word which is used for a landing page when it functions for the specific purpose of capturing leads is “squeeze page.” A squeeze page is a page designed to get names and email addresses. Usually, however, a squeeze page is usually a smaller type of landing page, which usually has an opt-in form in sight when the page loads.

So what is important to learn in an introduction to landing pages? First, it is important to recognize that all successful marketers use these. If you plan to sell a product over the Internet, you will want to use one, too, rather than relying on sidebar opt-in forms and unfocused pages that do not convey a single point and a single call to action.

Another important thing you will want to take away from this introduction to landing pages is that every landing page contains the same parts and is focused on a SINGLE goal – getting the visitor to become a subscriber or buyer.

These parts are as follows: an opt-in form (or sales prompt), a brief or lengthy introduction, a picture of the list/product owner, the signature of the list owner, and a call to action (or multiple calls to action).

Determining which model will work best for you can simply only be done through testing. While many boast a conversion and attribute it to the shortness of their introduction (many will be one short paragraph), otherwise will boast a high conversion rate because they use lengthy, thorough, and compelling copy. Jimmy D. Brown's list and traffic, for instance, has an unbelievably high opt-in rate, but he uses lengthy copy.

If there is anything you absolutely must take away from an introduction to landing pages, it is that you cannot create a landing page or squeeze page that isn't focused.

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Landing Page System

The landing page system provides a uniquely powerful system through which you can derive profit from multiple streams. This article will briefly discusses some of those different streams – and how you can manipulate them.

Let's start with the landing page itself: all traffic is sent to the landing page. From there, it will have a number of options, depending on what you have given them. Many marketers suggest that your landing page should always be an opt-in form. Others will suggest that it should simply be a salespage.

Whether it's a free newsletter or a product for sale, the landing page system you create should include a “one time offer,” which will compel them to take action – subscribe, buy, etc.

Once they subscribe or buy, the landing page system you create should then re-route them to a thank you page, which opens up more means through which you can upsell. One quick way to upsell is to simply include advertisements on your thank you page for related affiliate products or for your own products. Here, again, you will want to give them a one-time offer.

Also, if you haven't yet asked them to join your mailing list, this is where you should do it – on your thank you page. Once they opt-in to your list, you now have a whole new options you can use in conjunction with the landing page system to generate revenue.

One such option is selling ad space in your newsletter or ezine. The more people you have reading your newsletter, the more you can generally charge for adspace; however, you will want to avoid overselling to your list to ensure your advertisers actually make money.

Your next option is to endorse a product as an affiliate. You can tell your subscribers how someone has just created a brilliant product – and you can offer it to your subscribers through an affiliate link. You may even want to use other products you have has bonuses to give them something extra.

The last and most profitable way in which you can generate revenue through your newsletter is by creating and selling your own products to them.

It  is important to note that you don't have to use all of these means to generate revenue; however, the more you use, the more you earn in general.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What You Need Before Getting Started

Before you get started building your landing page, you will need a number of things to a) make your offer actually have a point; and b) facilitate the creation of your landing page.

One thing you absolutely must have before you get started is an autoresponder. Without any autoresponder, you are tossing potential bags of money in the garbage. Rather than creating a relationship with customers and potential customers – and giving yourself the opportunity to attempt future upsales --  you're allowing them to leave and never return.

In addition to an autoresponder, you will need to have an actual offer that people want to buy. You may want to develop a product, such as an ebook or a piece of software. If you don't have the skills to do either, you can always hire a professional to do it for you through elance.com or guru.com. You will then either want to sell this product and attempt to get subscribers from your thank you page – or you will want to get subscribers by offering the product for free (which is what many Internet marketers now do).

Another thing you absolutely must have before you get started is a check out service. You may want to consider Google Check Out, Paypal, a Shopping Cart Service, Click Bank, Sale Flurry, or 2 Check Out. All of these services will allow you to make transactions quickly.

Another thing you must have before you get started is a set of graphics, which usually includes a graphic header, a check out button, background wallpaper, and

a half-decent picture of yourself. You can probably provide the picture of yourself, but you might want to hire a professional to do the rest.

Another thing you will need before you can get started on your landing page is some way in which to create a realistic signature. Http://www.vletter.com is probably your best bet; but, if you're on a budget, you may want to opt for simply using a wordprocessing program.

Planning Your Landing Page Theme

Perhaps the most important part of creating a landing page is planning your landing page theme. How you select your theme, of course, will all depend on how you plan to generate traffic.

If you decide to generate traffic through search engine optimization, planning your landing page theme will entail finding phrases within your niche which have a high demand (aggregate search value) and a low supply (small amount of competing sites) and then creating multiple landing pages, each which is optimized around a different phrase.

If, on the other hand, you decide to generate traffic through pay per click (PPC) programs, such as Adwords, planning your landing page theme will again entail tuning a number of different pages to fit the keywords you are purchasing.

This is actually where most people fail when they create a landing page: they don't tune it to fit a specific audience. For instance, in the case of a squeeze page for a newsletter, they might start a newsletter about toys, but they only create one landing page and send all traffic to it. This is a big mistake.

Chances are, if you create a quality product or newsletter, it can benefit a number of people. So why not communicate the exact benefits they will derive from subscribing or buying? If, for instance, you have a newsletter about legos and toy blocks, so you group it under the loose heading of “toys,” a visitor who is looking specifically for information about either legos or toy blocks will click off your page if they don't see the direct connection to the exact topic for which they were searching.

Instead, you will want to setup a page centered around legos and a page centered around toy blocks. On each page, you will want to communicate the specific benefits to joining the list for each of those groups of visitors.

Going one step further, in addition to planning your landing page theme, if you are creating a landing page for a newsletter, you may also want to segment your list, so you can send information specifically about legos to those who request it – and information about blocks to those who request it.

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to Write a Landing Page that Converts

Most people have no idea how to write a landing page that converts. Instead, they slop together elements that they have seen used in other landing pages – but usually do not put them together in the same way the owner of the successful landing page did.

One major problem is copy. And that's fine. Not everyone is going to be an excellent writer – nevermind a copywriter. But as someone selling a product or trying to build a list, it is important that you know your strengths and weaknesses – and that you either spend the time to overcome them or hire someone else to do it for you.

With copywriting, for instance, it is important to use a mix of compelling sales points with powerful psychological triggers. Most people who create a salespage miss either one or both of those elements.

For instance, they might concentrate so much on building hype that they don't actually explain what solution they are providing – and for whom they are providing it. If I don't have a specific problem that your product solves, why would I buy it? I wouldn't.

Now, if they fail to sprinkle in psychological triggers, such as “scientifically proven,” “guaranteed,” and “shocking,” no one will feel compelled to continue reading, as the benefits will have a low or average perceived value.

In addition to these two problems, some salespages lack coherency and direction. The copy looks amateurish and it doesn't slowly grind forward, breaking down the visitor's resistance to the sale – and compelling him or her to buy more and more at each sales point.

Additionally, if there aren't multiple calls to action – another form of psychological trigger – then a potential visitor might never feel compelled enough to pull out his or her credit card on the spot and make the purchase.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tips on Increasing Your Landing Page Conversion Rate

There are three major ways in which you can create your landing page conversion rate. All landing pages created by professionals usually include these three elements at a few others.

The first way in which you can increase your conversion rate is through personalization. This is usually done in two ways: the first way is by providing a photo of yourself. The second way is by adding your signature to the bottom of your landing page. This radically increases visitors' trust. Most people who resist buying products online do so because they're weary of getting scammed by a faceless liar, who wont be around when they need help or when they need to return the product. By adding your picture and signature, you can gain visitors' trust.

Another way in which you can increase your landing page conversion rate is by using black text or a white layout. Regardless of what anyone tells you, this is one of the easiest ways in which to make your page look professional, rather than pathetic or desperate.

The third way in which you can gain trust is by offering something for free. This is generally what you will do if you're using a squeeze page to generate leads: you'll offer a free report or five-day course – and then use that to generate leads, which you will later upsell or generate revenue from via affiliate sales. Why is this technique so effective? Quite simply because it allows them to judge your work and ideas before they actually have to pay for them. Additionally, it builds trust.

In addition to these three general ways in which to increase your conversion rate, you should always guarantee a product. If you sell through Click Bank, you actually wont have a choice. But if you're using Paypal or some other check out program, you will want to make sure you clearly state that customers can return your product for any reason within a given period of time after the purchase.

Follow all of these steps and you will significantly increase your landing page conversion rate.

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Driving Traffic into Your Landing Page

Driving traffic into your landing page – it sounds easy, doesn't it? Well, it's not. And no matter how great your landing page is, it wont matter if no one ever reads it. Furthermore, if everyone in the world other than your target audience reads it, it also wont matter. This is why you need to find media through which you can drive targeted visitors to your landing page.

One way in which you can drive traffic to your landing page is through natural search engine optimization. This is the slowest process, but it is also one of the best ways to ensure a continually-increasing stream of traffic over time.

Generating natural search engine traffic generally entails getting links to your site. While reciprocal linking was once the best strategy, experts now believe that major search engines are devaluing reciprocal links in favor of one-way links and triangular links (which search engines can't really detect).

Another way in which to get natural search engine traffic is by optimization your website for certain keyphrases. You can do this by creating pages that specifically focus on one keyword on your given niche. You can then set the page extension to that keyword and optimize the content at a 1.5% density for that keyword. You will also want to use it in header and title tags.

Now, in addition building natural search engine traffic, you will want to consider using pay per click advertising. You can do this by opening an account with Google Adwords.

As mentioned earlier, successful Google Adwords campaigns do two things: they group keywords into multiple, small, related groups – and they send leads to multiple, tweaked landing pages.

This means you will have to start with some careful keyword research; and you will then have to alter your landing pages to match that research.

These are some of the most commonly used tools for driving traffic to a landing page; however, they are not always the most effective.

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finest Examples of Landing Pages

When you are constructing a landing page, it is always a good idea to refer to a number of other successful landing pages for ideas. The following are three examples of landing pages that convert well:

http://www.ebizmodelsyoucancopy.com/resellrights

What works well with this page? The first thing to note is the header, which is red. Generally, one of two colors (other than black) are employed in a header: red or blue. Blue relaxes people and red creates urgency. Another thing that boosts the credibility of this landing page is the graphic.

Another good point about this landing page is the picture and signature of the product owner. This, again, boosts trust and increases conversion rates. Another important and notable part of this landing page's success are the testimonials, which also increase trust.

Let's check out other successful landing pages:

http://www.privatelabelrightsgold.com/

http://ad-alyzer.com/727/PROCHOICE100

What works well with this landing page? Again, the red font creates a sense of urgency. In addition to that, all benefits and costs are quantified to the penny and exact percentage. This increases the perceived value of the product, which is important, as people purchase perceived value, not value. If your product is good, you have to create perceived value to match the real value.

Another effective method employed in this landing page is the auto-updating time stamp. When a visitor sees the time stamp, they feel that the product or service was released or updated that exact day – or at least that someone is maintaining it on a daily basis.

Another powerful element that makes this landing page successful are the repeated psychological triggers. “Smoking HOT products,” “insane profits,” “instant access” -- all of these phrases create urgency, increase perceived value, and induce action.

And there you have it: being successful with landing pages really is a repetitive process. If you follow the tips outlined and use good examples, you should have no problem constantly increasing your conversion rates.

Your Question Answered on Resell Rights

Dear Aspiring Reseller,

Resell Rights can sound all “alien” to you especially if you are new to the marketing scene or simply stepped in fresh from the world of doing business conventionally.

Perhaps you are more familiar with the term “retail” and “wholesale” in the offline world of doing business but some things can change slightly in the world of E-Commerce though many have dubbed Internet Marketing as a way of selling through the Internet as a medium with many of the conventional and time-tested principles intact.

So turn the page and don’t forget to send me a thank you note when you make your first buck in the Resell Rights arena. You know the address!

Infamous Question #1:

Are all Resell Rights products the same in terms and conditions?

Answer:

All Resell Rights are not created equally. Resell Rights vary from one product to the next, with different rights, terms, and conditions. In fact, some products that are contained in a Resell Rights package are not for resell at all, but are instead for personal use only.

If you purchase a resell rights package, which contains more than one product, the package will typically contain a resell license agreement for each product.  Do not assume anything! Read every word of the resell license before you resell the product, and keep that license in a safe place for future reference.

For some products, you may be allowed to resell the product for any price, or even give it away for free. Others may have a set price, meaning that you cannot sell the product for less than that price or give it away for free. In the case of physical products, such as CD’s or DVD’s, you may or may not be allowed to duplicate the product when you sell it. Some companies may require you to purchase the product directly from them for resell – for each sale.

There are usually other terms and conditions for reselling a product as well, other than the price at which you may resell it. For instance, most product authors will have strict anti-spam policies, meaning that the product cannot be advertised by any method that may be in violation of federal spam laws.

If you are ever unsure about your resell rights, contact the author of the product before doing anything else. You do not want to violate any terms or conditions, as it can and will be considered a violation of copyright laws, which is a federal offense. Make sure that you aren’t just asking another reseller – contact the author of the product directly.

Make sure that you don’t misplace your licenses. Print them out and keep them on a file. You should also back up electronic copies on a disk. Include any email exchanges with the product author as well in your backup files, including the emails that you send.

Infamous Question #2:

What is the difference between Resell Rights & Pvt. Label Rights?

Answer:

Many people are confused about the difference between resell rights and private label rights. Several mistakenly think that they are the same thing, and this is not so. It is easy, however, to understand how the two terms can be confusing.

If you have resell rights, you have the right to resell the product, in conjunction with the terms and conditions set forth in your license, as is. This means that you cannot alter or edit the product in any way, and you cannot put your name on it as the author.

If you have private label rights, however, you can edit and alter the product as you see fit, and you can even put your own name, or your company’s name, on the product as the author. You can change words, chapters, graphics, add to the product, break the product down into several different products – whatever you choose to do.

Because you have more freedom with private label rights, these types of products generally cost more to purchase the rights for.  Some products even have two options when you purchase them: resell rights or private label rights. In fact, you can use your private label rights products and sell the resell rights to others, after you have changed the product and put your name on it.

There is also a difference between resell rights and master resell rights. Resell rights simply give you the right to resell the product, while master resell rights allow you to resell the product and the resell rights!

Again, it is easy to see how one could be confused with these various terms. However, if given the choice, always go for the private label rights. This will allow you to have a product of your very own, without actually having to create one yourself. Most private label rights licenses give you much more leniency.

Infamous Question #3:

How do I compete with other Resellers who own the same product?

Answer:

Many people avoid resell rights products simply because they believe that they cannot compete with other resellers who are selling the same product, or they feel the market for that product may be flooded due to the fact that there are a great number of other resellers.

However, if you really think about it, most people purchase resell rights, and have no intention of reselling the product – they simply wanted the product. Others purchase resell rights to sell the product, but honestly don’t know how, or don’t use very effective marketing techniques. In fact, 90% of the people who hold the same resell rights that you hold are doing it wrong.

You must also consider the market. While it is harder to sell Internet Marketing related products, selling non-Internet Marketing products is easier than you think. The reason it is harder to sell Internet Marketing products is because most of the other resellers will in fact be Internet Marketers who do know what they are doing.

First, you must increase your marketing efforts. By doing more, you will put yourself well ahead of the 10% that are actually marketing the product correctly. Find new markets for the product and new ways to reach them. Consider holding teleseminars or joint venturing with other marketers who have large subscriber lists.

Next, make your package more attractive than other people’s. You typically will not have the right to change the product, but that doesn’t mean you can’t change the offer. Use other products as bonuses, as long as you have the right to give those products away. Beef up your package, and you will pull ahead of the competition quickly. Also, change your sales letter. Don’t use the same sales letter that other resellers are using. Make yours unique.

Infamous Question #4:

What Ways Can I Profit from Resell Rights products?
