Marketing Merge Network

This is Part I of a III Part series to assist you with moving your life and business forward over the next 90 days.  This is for members of the Marketing Merge 'Professional' level.

Each article 'part' in this series will include an assignment to move you forward quickly.  This is action-oriented with laser focus, so you can properly utilize the resources around you to maximize results swiftly.

90 Days to Attraction Marketing Success:  Part I

If you already generate a lot of prospects this article series will help you 'at least' double the number of people you're attracting onto your lists, while 'at least' doubling the cash-flow you have coming in from your affiliate commissions.

If you attract very few prospects right now (less than 10 prospects per week) this article series can help you to increase that by a factor of 10 within the next 90 days.  That would turn 5 prospects per week into 50 a week, and significantly increase your 'operating' cash-flow while you're at it.

It's a lot easier to build a network marketing business when you have monthly operating cash-flow to work with, along with a large volume of new prospects joining your list each day.

Where to Start...

This all starts by understanding how valuable you are as an affiliate of Marketing Merge.  Once you understand the value you can bring to the market starting immediately, your next move will be with intent and laser focus and will leverage the resources presently within your reach... these are tools that you are not using right now but easily could to attract large numbers of prospects and cash-flow in a very short period of time.

The Value You Bring through Association with Marketing Merge:  Offering Value to Your Network Marketing Peers...

I'm sure you've heard the expression, "You can't get something for nothing."  It's true, of course.  So if you want to get some good monthly cash-flow coming in while building a large prospects list (a valuable commodity in itself) you have to GIVE something for it. 

But What?

When someone pays $39.95 per month for an affiliation with Marketing Merge, you're getting a lot more than just the Internet Marketing training.  Sure, compared to anything else offered in this area, our training alone over-delivers and is worth far more than $39.95 on the subscription... you want to hone in on this value because you get to offer this to your prospects.  But the bigger point is that you have a lot more to leverage than just using the training to advance yourself forward.  

The bigger deal is that you can use this training (and it's tremendous value) to attract and lead others.  And that is when you become extremely valuable.  This requires a 'willingness' on your part to not just move forward with the tutorials, but to also share what you learned.  If you're willing to spend an equal amount of time sharing as you do learning for yourself, the pay-off will be huge. 

I assure you that I spend at least an equal amount of time teaching what I learn.  You can duplicate that same process and it doesn't have to be anything like how I do it... in fact, it's much better if you are genuinely YOU and sincere in how you go about it.  That's the value... that's what people will be most attracted to--your willingness to teach them sincerely and genuinely.  It will come across in your marketing (your blog, your Squidoo, your video, etc).  But it goes further...

Do you realize how badly other network marketers are starving for personal guidance in Internet Marketing?!

While our tutorials offer the only training in the world that takes network marketers visually through setting up their own Internet Marketing click-by-click... there is one thing our training cannot do:  The system can't connect with your prospects on the phone and offer a word of encouragement. 

Our system cannot represent itself with a warm smile out there on Squidoo, or on a Blog or video... only a person can do that!  And this is where you can come in... if only you're willing.

It's amazing HOW MUCH your 'willingness to be a real person' as you interact with prospects is worth to them!

Not only will you be able to generate 2x, 5x, or even 10x or more the number of prospect if you represent yourself as a helper in your marketing (sincerely)... you will find it far easier to know what to write about or put into your marketing.  Your marketing will become more focused and 'attractive' immediately.

I'll write more in part II of this article about how much easier it becomes to create sticky fly-paper like marketing content that gets tons of prospects swarming around you... when you take this approach of being a helper.  But first, let's talk more about what it means to be a willing helper.

What If I'm Not an Expert?  How can I Pass Myself Off as an Expert?

Look, this is NOT about being something you're not.  In fact, as I have emphasized, it's about being sincere and genuine in simply wanting to help others.  If you haven't learned anything then you have nothing to teach or share.  There is no value to offer until you have learned SOMETHING.  But, here's the deal... if you've gone through one tutorial at Marketing Merge, then you have at least one thing to teach.  Every single thing you learn you can pass that onto others.  Every time you learn something, create a new marketing piece... add it to your blog, create another Squidoo lens, create a video.  You don't have to sell yourself as an expert.   Just offer your service as a genuine helper.  You'll be amazed at how many people flock to you.  Almost immediately, you'll have more people wanting your help than you can realistically work with... and that is when you start qualifying people more because you won't be able to talk with them all (this is the subject of Part III of this series on how to work with your prospects after they start flocking to you.. and they WILL if you follow what I'm teaching here genuinely).

Part II Article Topic:  Mass Marketing... 

Once you are solid on being willing to learn and then teach strangers through your marketing, you want to crank up the marketing on a massive scale.  In Part II of this article series I will dig deeper into how to use the marketing methods you're learning at Marketing Merge 'Professional level' to promote yourself on a massive scale with a deliberate strategy that works together in unison... like a tornado in effect!

Part III Article Topic:  How Do I Qualify People for My Time and Work with my Prospects in a Way that Gives Me Fair Compensation in Exchange for what I Give?

Assignment for right now:

1. I want you to write down at least 10-25 things you've learned (preferably 25 things) so far at Marketing Merge--on conference calls and Webinars, in the tutorials, and in articles like the one you're reading now.  If you haven't learned at least 10-25 new things, go back to Marketing Merge at the 'Professional back office' and start at the beginning.  Walk back through each step and start writing down what you're learning.

2. Once you have a list of 10-25 things you've learned, write a few thoughts about each.  Just expand on what it was about this that is useful or significant to you.

3. Now, start creating 'content' from these topics with a Squidoo lens, blog article, video, Ezinearticle and any other form of marketing you've learned--yes indeed, this is a process... that's the value!  Remember, you don't get something for nothing... this is the part where you GIVE! 

The more places you create some content the better right now in the beginning.  Keep the lessons in mind that you learned in the Phase II marketing Webinar for optimal search engine listings.  You'll find this at your Marketing Merge 'Professional' back office in Social Marketing.

***If you don't want to write the articles yourself hire someone else to do them--just formulate them as much as you can.  You don't have to be the actual writer in order to take credit for helping people with it!

4.  Also...  Write a good resource box (and bio) with an emphasis on what you offer.  The resource box and bio are the areas at place like Squidoo or Ezinearticles that I showed you where you tell a little about yourself and what you offer. 

***Keep these things in mind when writing your resource box and bio: 

You are a helper and guide assisting other network marketers... think about what these people want... write it for them... make sure they feel your willingness to assist them... be willing... be sincere and genuine... think about what they feel as they are overwhelmed with all the info out there.  Offer real help.  Write a bio for Squidoo and a resource box for Ezinearticles (and use this at other areas like Facebook, Digg, etc).  Then, write an article just about your experiences so far and extend your willingness to help others ... and post that at your blog as an article.  When you're ready for a video create one on this topic alone.

Once you're done with this assignment you'll have a solid basis for a lot of content so you can move into marketing on a massive scale as you move onto the 2nd part of this series (marketing on a massive scale for massive exposure).

In closing before you begin your assignment:

If you still wonder how you can teach something if you're new yourself I'll leave you with these examples...

If you're a kid and you're running full speed ahead with your younger brother and sister behind you ... and then you fall into a ditch, won't you warn them about it?  You're just a dumb kid but you know something important so you tell 'em.

And if you're a new driver (just turned 16 and terrible at it) and you're a couple miles ahead of some friends driving the same direction, and you drive over some glass and nearly get a flat tire, might you call them on your cell phone to let them know.  You're no expert but why not let them know? 

If you don't know a thing about taxes and you take some advice of an expert and lose your shirt, might you tell a friend about that experience who is considering the same advice? 

If you are NOT a good cook but you find a cook book and amazingly create the most fantastic meal, might you be able to share that recipe? 

You get the point.  This is not that hard.  If you're stumped you're just looking for excuses not to do the work... plain and simple.  That may be resistance on a subconscious level but it is indeed resistance to simply do the work.

Again, it comes back to willingness, and that's that.  Are you willing to succeed?  Then learn and share. 

Now get to work!
