The Heisman will be announced tonight. Mark Ingram, Alabama running back, is in the mix. My youngest is pumped. I don't know about you, but I LOVE to watch people who excel. Whether it's sports or art or business. And to have the opportunity to learn from people who stand out is even better. One of my friends that has excelled in the last 12 months is Stephen Beck. His business has tripled and it was already substantial. Yesterday I mentioned quietly at the bottom of the newsletter that I made over $100K a few weeks ago from a simple webinar. Stephen and I will be getting together Tuesday night to share how to use webinars to...
Would love to have you there: http://budurl.com/WealthWebinar

Squeeze Page Templates 4 Ways to Increase Profits With Affiliate Programs... If you want to earn MORE commissions each month [And
I'm assuming you do], then there are four ways to do it... Strategy #1 -> Generate more traffic. The first thing you can do is actually get more
people to click on your affiliate link and arrive at your affiliate
site. Certainly this is doable. You simply do more marketing. You
spend more money on advertising, write more ezine articles, publish more
newsletters, create more viral eBooks, etc. You do whatever it takes to
get more visitors to your affiliate page. We'll tackle this a bit later
in this course. Strategy #2 -> Increase conversion rates. While this one has a great deal to do with the affiliate program itself [I.E. How good their sales letter is, their follow-up system, freebies, etc.], there are some things that YOU can do to increase the number of visitors who actually buy. Chief among them is to offer an incentive to those who buy through your affiliate link. Strategy #3 -> Earn more profit per sale. This one is typically out of your control. What it would involve is either (a) Raising the price of the product or service you are promoting, or (b) Raising your commission per sale. Both of these are generally up to affiliate program managers, or the owner of the products / services. [Note: If you find that you are producing quite a
few sales, or have a lot to bring to the table as an affiliate, you may
want to approach the affiliate program owner and ask for a HIGHER
commission per sale. I know that I personally get much higher
commission percentages on many affiliate programs simply by asking.] Strategy #4 -> Sell more to each customer. This is the one that we'll be exploring in-depth in this course. The idea is to get the same customer to consume more products or services, thus earning you more commissions. It is MUCH easier to sell MORE to existing customers than it is to find new customers. Learn that now. Existing customers are AVAILABLE [they are already here] and they are WARM [they have already made a purchase.] New customers are OUT THERE SOMEWHERE [you've got to find them] and they are COLD [you've got to convince them.] Which do you think will be easier to do business with? Obviously, the MORE of these strategies that you apply, the greater the size of your commission checks each month. Certainly THREE of the FOUR are under your control Success is NOT an Accident, Paul http://www.nicheology.com/joinnow P.P.S.

I’ve got two words for you today!
Two words that have helped me more than any other words in business building and income generation.
Risk.
Fear.
Those two words lace the entrepreneurial battlefield.
Embrace them and you’re ahead of the field.
Risk
That’s business.
When a new restaurant opens in your city. When a new doctor moves to town and puts his sign out. When a young lady grabs a dream and prints interior design flyers. When a cubicle worker buys a domain name and hosting as he imagines the speech he gives as he walks out of the office…forever.
Each of those scenes involve risk.
It’s our territory.
It’s home for the entrepreneur.
People who don’t want to risk. Who want everything guaranteed to work out. Who believe that painting by numbers creates a Picasso. Those are the ones who never make it. Who stay in the cubicle. Whose dreams remain just that.
They are also the ones who will try to talk you out of your dreams.
Risk is what we do as business owners.
We can calculate the percentages. We can feel confident that we’re entering the right market. We can create the best graphics, sales copy and have an incredible product. But that’s no guarantee of sales.
Hard pill to swallow?
No.
It’s exciting.
It’s entrepreneurial adrenalin.
The place that so many others refuse to go.
Why?
Fear
“What if this doesn’t work?”
“What if I fail?”
“What will others think?”
“What if I spend all this money and don’t make any?”
Risk and fear are pals. Best friends. Together they defeat the boldest, clearest dreams.
Fear rarely comes on full force. It’s subtle. A soft undertow that stays a couple of shades below the surface. It weaves itself into every thought and action. Camouflaged by hope. And masked as doubt.
It’s OK to be afraid. It’s healthy. It’s means we’re thinking instead of blindly following the yellow brick road.
Stepping toward fear is… risk.
Which leads to reward (or back to the drawing board). But either way you’re in a new place. You have experienced more. You have become more than those who allow risk and fear to keep them chained to their present position.
2010 waits days away.
Risk and fear can be a catapult or a chain. You choose.

They key to getting people to join your list is to have a list that is an
extension of something they are already interested in.
That’s important, so let me make it again:
The key to getting people to join your list is to have a list that is an extension of something they are already interested in.
The more specific the list you are offering is to the context in which it is inserted, the more likely your visitors will optin.
And it goes much deeper than “relevancy.”
“Relevancy” says that you can offer a “free marketing newsletter” on any page that has anything remotely to do with marketing.
While that WILL get you some opt-ins, it’s certainly not the mother lode.
You need a list offer that is
MORE than “relevant.”
You need a list that is PRECISELY tied to the very information that the reader is absorbed in consuming at that moment in time.
Success is NOT an Accident.
Mediocrity
Look around.
Watch the way people do business.
Pull up the products on your hard drive.
Most.
Mediocre.
Which is good news. There’s plenty of folks living and selling mediocrity. All those spots are taken. So there’s no need to go there. There’s no need to join the crowd.
Do your best.
Be your best.
Success is NOT an Accident.
There seems two main types of folks in business.
1 – Those who only want to make money regardless.
2 – Those who want to make money while helping others.
Be the latter.
