I subscribed to Leadsleap when it first appeared on the scene earlier this year. Because of the number of different schemes I have used to promote PROSPERIZER, my primary online business, I kind of forgot about Leadsleap. In my absent mindedness, LeadsLeap continued to grow and its active members have been generating very focussed leads and increased turnover. The turning point for me, was when I started looking at the relative costs of the Pro membership compared with the classic PPC system on Google. For that reason alone, if you are working in the “Making Money Online” niche you have a highly targeted audience for your ads in this enormous market. As a pro you are able to have your PPC style advert displayed on LeadsLeaps viral blog for what amounts to something approaching just 6 cents a click. And remember, the readers are your target audience! Well worth a try.

The blog posts themselves are a classic series of tips, how tos and explanations of the basic nitty-gritty knowledge we need and the “arcania” of this marketing world. The information is not in itself highly original or innovative, BUT it is presented in a very simple clear cut manner that beginners can learn from and which clarifies the concepts for us overloaded and confused post-beginners.

These posts are produced by Kenneth Koh who is a bit of a rising star. This is one system where your inbox is NOT buried under the deluge of marketing emails, so many systems produce. Herein lies one of its magical elements. I have included an extract from the latest post below, to give you a flavour of the material. Here Kenneth is trying to encourage you to look behind the “Hoo Hah” publicity that many gurus present about themselves. It’s all too easy to be sucked in by the publicity if you don’t choose a product line that fits your psyche. The full post can be found on the LeadsLeap blog itself!

Here’s what Kenneth has to say about gurus:

How To Come Out With Innovative Ideas That Sell

I’m quite sure that you have constantly been bombarded with offers from different internet marketing gurus asking you to buy their products or other guru’s products.

Let me give you another example. continued on the LeadsLeap blog.

Prosperizer is beginning to take off BIG STYLE. This is mainly due to the efforts of our dedicated back room team of Simon Tofield, Paul Ward and a cast of dozens. Last week, on the back of the success of the Winners of Wealth; system they launched a whole range of new products which I detail below. The simplest way is just to include Paul’s over excited newsletter (typos and all!!) I’ve just tidied up the links so you can see our information more easily. I’ve been a bit remiss in my own marketing and educational efforts this week as I have been full on, developing a virtual tour for some friends and their hotel. I’ve nearly cracked it!!

Now do you think he was in a rush!! I have a good idea how hard these guys have been working for us

Nichebot isn’t simple by any stretch of the imagination, but like so many high order skills, learning it should be. Only now have I started dipping into the masses of tutorial video and audio help that is available in this awesome tool. I have used the Google Keyword Tool, Word Tracker, Overture (now well and truly moribund); even the Daddy keyword tool, coughing up a pile of cash for each of the
paid options. Has my cash been well spent? Nope! But I think finally, part of it is about to be! The Google and Nichebot combination are the way to go as far as I am concerned.

Like so many people; when I look back over the last several months, I realise I have been guilty of un-focussed dabbling. Too many projects on the go at once and too many techniques being tried out all at one go. Sum result? Frustration! Only now, having given myself a good old fashioned kick up the arse (sealed with a KISS), is the keyword nightmare beginning to melt and some understanding dawn.

All the systems and tools mentioned above are actually very good, but what most people don’t grasp for a long time is that they only (with the exception of Google Keyword Tool) represent a tiny fraction of the search traffic of the web. All of them, even with Google’s new inclusion of the search volume data, only give a flavour of the numbers of searches being conducted worldwide. The other side of the research coin is that most of us have been doing the researcgh process in a perversely back to front manner.

How often have you started to research a niche and shied away from the obvious highly competed niche keywords. Doh! that’s where the traffic and the money are likely to be found, isn’t it? Well, I have just recovered from a failed little enterprise where I attempted to promote an excellent guide to marketing your photography, a guide produced by photographer Dan Eitreim and marketed in Clickbank. I faithfully tracked down the low competition keywords, optimised my landing page and wrote the best set of ads yet. Sadly there wasn’t much traffic on those keywords, either on the search network or the content partners. So I managed to make exactly diddly squat! After pulling the plug on the campaign when the author restructured his own campaign and rendered my split-test landing pages, ads and keywords inaccurate at the press of his upload button; I had to analyse just what the cock-up was this time and I spent quite a bit of time going over the pattern of what little activity my work had attracted. It was only then that I began to realise my niche was a bit of a non event. Slowly, the necessary question began to crystallise in my mind … how should I go about RESEARCHING my MARKET NICHE????

The answer appeared, by surprise almost, while I was listening to 1 of Jim’s archived audio calls. To cut a long story short, I received a digital slap round the lugs and a penny dropped. I hadn’t done my market research with any rigour, before racing off to play with my expensive toolbox to find the “plum” keywords. My campaign was doomed before I had spent my first tenner! Suddenly here was Jim Morris telling me what to do and what to read BEFORE I started even thinking about keywords. Now the advice boiled down to a few very simple tips that I have heard before but never internalised. It was all about discovering the real potential of a niche, to funnel cash in your direction and doing this rigorously: BEFORE looking into the minutiae of keywords and SEO.

Jim’s article 5 Free Powerful Ways to Conduct Online Consumer Market Research to Find a Profitable Niche that has nothing to do with Keyword Research can be found by clicking the link.

The 5 key steps boil down to:

5 What is the top selling product in the niche?

On competition, his advice is to embrace it and then do your own thing to stand out from the crowd. Read the article, it is a very informative 10 minute read.

So, follow this very successful marketer’s advice, check out the niche first; then harvest your keywords and finally; keep it simple stoopid, USE the INSTRUCTIONS with whatever tool or programme choice you make. I’ll see you on the successful side of the fence.

Joking apart, Kern is obviously a very confident, very alpha type character with lots of dough to spend on his launches: he obviously loves stirring up the masses and turning up the volume for his product launch events. But even old Frankie boy had to start somewhere with his lap guitar and his marketing.

So what have I got to compete against the big boys with?

Just a brief post this as I’m off out the door to pick the kids up from the airport. More after the weekend.

Like most people who are new(ish) to this way of working for a living, I would log on and be “eyeball smacked” by a dozen different must have, UTTERLY ESSENTIAL, you’re a dork if you haven’t got this piece of myxomatosis, … tools tweaks or widgets.

Even for a marketing resistant mutant like me it was all too much and I now find myself with a rack of gear and software that frankly I don’t really know where to start with. There are some great tools: and for keyword research Nichebot has turned out to be an absolutely brilliant piece of kit. This gives you access to a whole raft of complementary keyword information sources at a far lower cost (it does cost though) than if you were to try and access these services on your own. This ranges from simple scans by Word Tracker right through to the Google Keyword Cruncher. Need a 100 keyword list? No problem with Nichebot. The training videos within the site are absolutely excellent. Chris really knows what he’s talking about and keeps it at a shop floor level that is understandable: even if you’re not a “Google Geek”.

Now marketing Big Boy, Mike Filsaime has released a report that summarises all the software and tools that he uses.

If you are wondering, “What do I need to get myself going?” This free “RESOURCE REPORT” is a good guide to what 1 multi millionaire thinks is the essential package. Don’t be naive though, of course he is trying to sell you something, but the free report is definitely worth the read. If you are about to invest in your E Office, the resource package he is offering on the other side might just be the most cost effective purchase you ever make. I wish it had been on offer before I set out on the last 6 months of spending.

You can get your copy here it is a very informative read, giving the thinking behind each tool.

A final element of creating successful ads is testing. You must test EVERY ad that you use. Experiment by changing different elements of your ad. Change the headline or a few words in the ad body. Record the response rate that you get.

Now change the url or capitalization and note the results you get. Just changing one element in an ad can result in 100 times the response rate. Then, when you find an ad that works, stick with it until it stops working. Continue to test other ads for the same product or service, but don’t stop running the one that’s working!

You never know what ad is going to strike just the right chord in your prospects. At the same time, what worked today may not work tomorrow. There are certain advertising concepts that never seem to change but many do.

A classic book called Scientific Advertising is one of the best books on writing and testing ads available anywhere. I use techniques from the book every advertising campaign I run. If you would like a free copy you can download it from my site at:
http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=DXH8Z&m=9K9rtmU2IOtW5&b=Vqgqfhm9azWcKnMmU3GJcQ

Download this ebook and study it carefully. Some of the most successful copywriters around regularly mention this book as one they learned to write great ad copy from. Then it’s largely a matter of creating an ad following the proven steps and testing, testing, testing!

To your success - Willie Crawford
http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=DXH8Z&m=9K9rtmU2IOtW5&b=xTTuztqlaHuZh71FpO8GDw

The article was by a guy called Willie Crawford and I am going to put it up in 3 sections on the blog as it was a “Right Riveting Read!”

It set out out in words, even I could understand, how to set up your advertising copy and test the results. So here ya go! Here’s part 1.

My Ads Aren’t Working!
by Willie Crawford

My ads aren’t working! I don’t get much response to my ezine ads! How can I improve my ad response rates? These are comments I hear frequently from associates who advertise regularly online. After taking a look at their ads, here is the advice I often offer them on improving their ads:

First of all, the ad must be BELIEVABLE. Fully 80% of the ads that I review lack credibility. Yes - people want to believe that they can earn a fortune - in a month - with absolutely no work. However, things don’t work that way! If it were THAT easy, everybody would be doing it.

After all, we like to share secrets with our family and friends. Anyone discovering a way to earn money THAT easy would have shared it with their friends .. who would have shared it with their friends….. and they would have shared it with their friends. Soon everyone would know about it and be making a fortune.

This great moneymaker would not need to be advertised since it would be spreading so fast by word-of-mouth.

Your potential customers are very intelligent. They can spot a hyped-up exaggeration when they see one. Don’t use them - make your ads believable.

Starting with the most important part of your ad - the headline. It must be believable and it must grab their attention.

How do you get their attention? You tell them how you are going to solve a problem for them, or how you are going to prevent them from having a problem in the first place. There are many “hot words” that have been proven to grab a persons attention better than others. You need to use these in your headlines too. Examples of these words include:

“Free”
“You”
“Discover”
“New”

Any good book on copywriting will give you more of these terms so I won’t elaborate on that here. If you want a good ebook on how to write using language that excites a customer get a free copy of “The Net Writing Master’s Course”

Here’s a useful blog by Ron Castle on the noble art of copywriting:

After my initial growing pains in this game, I was pleased to find a plain English guide to getting the advertising right. I doubt I’ve got it right yet, but I am now working on it with a lot more of a “clue”.

Keep an eye out for part 2 coming soon to a blog near you!!

By the way; don’t forget there are a whole bunch of giveaway events kicking off at the moment so just have a look at the previous post on my blog. Details of my personal favourites.;-)

This is one project that has the capability to banish the Monday Blues and brighten up the gloom and doom that the media is peddling about 2008.

Because of my direct connection to 2 of the founding members of project MONDAY PAYDAY, I am in the unfamiliar position of being able to get you in early at the top end of the tree. You would be wise to get in quick, because your earning potential is so much higher in the upper levels; as with most programmes.

Unfortunately, because I’m not actually a founder myself, I’m not privy to all the information that will launch this baby. However, as soon as the info emerges, on Monday April 28th, I will be posting here to get it out to as many interested folk as possible. Watch this Space!!

If you want a little more tantalisation - have a sneaky look at the page from Simon’s Diary that is doing the rounds at the moment. This promises to be a big BIG launch without the usual over hyped “Mass Control” hysteria.

The Secret Diary Files

When I look at the image so many people like to project; of the sports cars, luxury yachts and sunny beach lifestyle, I find it grates - at first. I sometimes think many people (myself included all too frequently) miss the real point of all the hard work we do, to have our own businesses. It goes much deeper than the material manifestations of wealth. Time freedom and the ability to be there for the ones you love are the key things for me. And … eventually, I am sure, financial freedom! To me those kinds of freedoms are worth far more than the big house, the Merc or the yacht. And then, when I wind my inverted snobbery down a notch or two and look carefully at the message that the “flash car photo” entrepreneurs are putting out; it’s actually the same as mine. We’ve all got dreams of an ideal lifestyle and we project a picture to catch people’s attention. It doesn’t necessarily define our values.

When I left my job and was able to see my kids out to school regularly, I knew I had found the start of my own road forward. I was looking at a pretty scary fall from high power assistant headteacher to unemployed and broken down ex teacher. I was ready for the change though and the initial “poverty” has been very “motivating”.

You might be amused by my tag of CosmicRay and it might surprise you to know that there isn’t a shred of hippy in me! It’s all the fault of a friend from York 25 years ago, who spotted me strung out on the crux of a hardish rock climb in the Lake District, when I was an aspiring hard(?!)man. “Blood*@ hell,” he shouted up in his wry way, “You’ve got better! You must be getting cosmic Ray!” He was shocked to see I’d progressed onto scary routes. Not too helpful at that precise moment, as I was looking at the prospect of taking a big fall, because I couldn’t work out the sequence to get around a steep nose of rock. When he realised I was in trouble, he quietly told me about the “secret” hold around the corner - I breathed again and an eighty footer onto a ledge was avoided (in contrast to a lad from our club the previous weekend, who had missed the hold). Fortunately he was young and bouncy and got over his battering in a couple of weeks.

This marketing game is a bit like trying to tackle a climb that’s harder than you have previously attempted at the sharp end. Jumping off the career carousel was just as scary in its own way because more was at stake - it wasn’t just me any more, I now had children in a disintegrating marriage to look out for. But now, as then, the quiet word(s) from a friend (and a competitor of sorts) was enough to see me on the road to success and safety. It’s turning out to be a rerun of that same tale, as people give me little pointers and go out of their way to steer me round some of the more obvious pitfalls. I have been amazed at the constant help that is available - we only have to ask. It is very difficult for a person upline of you to know whether your lack of success is due to inaction or a misunderstanding of a new technique you’ve been trying. At the moment I am trying to get to grips with advertising on Craigslist and I am running into all the problems that are mentioned, a bit too quietly in that new course you bought!! BUT I will succeed, I will put into action all the tips that I hadn’t absorbed from my course materials and the new information I am turning up in various blogs. In my next posting, I will try and explain how I have gotten around the difficulties of using Craigslist, without hopefully having broken the rules or misused the resource.

My measures of success may be different to yours, but whatever it may be I am here to help you achieve it, no matter how material or “Cosmic” it may be. What I can’t answer myself, I can soon point you towards an answer, because that’s the way we become successful - by networking and building up relationships with each other. It’s a relationship game! Just like the day when a pal who was very competitive about his climbing realised there was a real problem and was there with a ready answer, a “secret” key that those in the know had access to. If you are looking for a business where help is constantly available from myself and many more experienced folk, I’ve listed some character sketches of my main focus. I’m sure there will be one of these busineses that suits your individual approach.

CosmicRay and the NorthernView bring you a range of opportunities from fast money start ups for beginners to high commitment, serious long term earners.

Join me in any of these ventures and we will build strong supportive teams that last.

Many people, new to the Internet Marketplace, buy a series of poorly understood products and fritter away their hard earned cash, believing naively that the promises of rapid wealth creation are somehow more real or believable than the cruel world of traditional business. Not surprisingly, to those of us who have come through initial disappointments and disasters, newcomers fail by the shed-load! Prosperizer is a new kid on the block from a well established stable. It seeks to take the hype out of high income potential and set newcomers up with a realistic game plan for financial independence. MASSIVE plans for the future of Prosperizer are rolling out so that the new affiliate need not go out and waste a ton of money on yet more impulse “must haves”. The most significant enhancements to member benefits are: the implementation of the VIP club and RIS; the Residual Income Systems. Other changes to increase the value for paid members include: the end of the free trial; members only access to the community forum and redesigned squeeze pages to attract more visitors and improve conversion rates!

Prosperizer is the brainchild of a team of entrepreneurs from the UK who are all successful in their own right, but who want to improve the embarrassing drop out rate of around 95% among new Internet marketers. Following launch in January, members are already seeing increased numbers of sign ups and growing streams of income. The great thing about Prosperizer is the attention to detail, in the systems being developed for newbies, to get their businesses off to a solid start. There is a tremendous community within the Prosperizer organisation, which reflects the ethos of the guys and girls who put this project together. They realised that the dropout rate was high because in most programmes there is a gap in the support available to new entrepreneurs; between the point where they have got to the end of the auto responder series that comes with their initial purchase and that point where they feel confident enough to approach their upline. Everybody in this project is approachable and looking out for you! The Prosperizer team has recently developed important upgrades to the system, to increase its value to members.

The most significant enhancement for ALL members, is the Residual Income Systems squeeze page - with FREE Report. Prospects signing up here receive access to a concise report explaining frequently misunderstood concepts around building a residual income from the start. (Something the author wishes he had understood better in his early days). The member benefit here, is that the prospect is automatically directed to the member’s personal autoresponder so that the member’s own list grows. For the prospect, there is a multi-part email course that is relayed to them over the period of a fortnight. The content is basic, clear, concise and generic, making it highly relevant to developing Prosperizer or any business system.

The second major upgrade to member’s benefits is the launch of the Prosperizer VIP club. This is effectively an advertising co-op. Members subscribe to 1 or more shares in the co-op each month. The revenue is then used to buy advertising and leads from sources that the founders have used successfully over the years themselves. The first national media advertising appeared in the Daily Express and the Daily Mirror in the UK this week. The leads generated by the co-op are then directed to the individual affiliates squeeze pages according to their share investment. The focus is on helping new marketers to monetize their businesses at an early stage, using the clout and leverage of established marketer’s contacts. The signs are already good, with the Prosperizer forum buzzing!

On the 25th of February, the 7 Day FREE Trial with Prosperizer was terminated. Now; people who are interested, are required to show a little more commitment to building their financial future with Prosperizer. There is still a 7 day trial period which costs £19.99, effectively the initial set up fee. After a week, if the new recruit wants to continue, because they find the content valuable - and like me, they will - they start paying their regular monthly fee of £39.95. For the referring member, there is a commission of 50% on all fees paid by new affiliates. The membership gives affiliates access to some superb training materials in a variety of media. The training is cleverly differentiated for the member, so that materials can be accessed at a comfortable level. It is under the member’s control when they move themselves up to the next level. Another well thought out feature of the training materials in Prosperizer, is the way that fresh material is unlocked at different times. This allows members, particularly new starters, to take action on the basic steps before they are swamped with more tips and instructions. The emphasis is always on encouraging people to TAKE ACTION to build their Prosperizer business and any other business with which they are involved. Greg McKenzie’s technical training videos are also superb, in the way they explain unfamiliar concepts such as; pre-loading auto-responders and redirecting URLs: they could be destined for greatness as training gems - with a quality Scottish accent ;0). Great work Greg! Additionally there is a marketplace section where affiliates have access to a series of hot ebooks with PLR rights and affiliate marketer’s tools that will shorten the learning curve significantly.

Other improvements include the redesign of the squeeze pages by graphics and copywriting maestro Simon Tofield and the closure of the Prosperizer Forum to non members. Why do this you might ask? Because we feel, a freely accessible public forum devalues everything that we are trying to achieve with Prosperizer. And that is to create an Exclusive Wealth Building Club! We are taking the hard and fast approach. If you’re not in you’re out! However, the investment required for this scheme is superb value for starting up a business, with such life changing potential! Prosperizer is also intimately linked to - and provides a springboard, for some of the rising stars of the online marketing world: UVME, eLottery and GDI. Membership includes squeeze pages for these opportunities and the developers are determined to give all entrepreneurs the tools and the skills to develop a stable financial base within Prosperizer and then branch out into the other superb opportunities or build any other business of their choosing. The extra pages are:

1. uVme squeeze page that’s exclusive to each Prosperizer Membership. This will help members build their uVme online games business if they so choose. (See http://viralurl.com/Cosmicray/UVME for access to the games site and http://viralurl.com/Cosmicray/uVmeBiz to examine the business opportunity video)

2. E-Lottery DVD site - this is a funded proposal where members keep the £4.95 that is charged for the excellent quality DVD, promoting this well established, rock solid business. (eLottery has been in existence for nearly 6 years and is a market leader in on-line entertainment businesses. The parent company, Virtual World Direct, is also responsible for launching uVme)
3. Residual Income Systems - with FREE Report as described above.

These three squeeze pages alone would cost people in excess of £1500 if you were to hire web or graphic designers of the calibre of John McNiven and Simon Tofield. In fact, it would cost you nearly the price of your membership just to host these fantastic, high quality sites…. And finally not forgetting to mention the member’s existing Prosperizer squeeze page. And don’t forget there is a re-brandable Freedomizer magazine and The Prosperizer Report! There are more training materials in video and pdf form. There is real time marketing of E-lottery rollover mini-sites. And … much, much more….as the development team steadily ramp up the available resources.
Believe me when I tell you……people will be kicking themselves right this very minute that they never had the foresight to take the 7 Day Free Trial while they had the chance. That’s great news for the members who took the leap of faith and joined early. Prosperizer still represents a tremendous investment in yourself, if you are serious about starting your online marketing career. For the more experienced marketer, the team have some established best sellers and are also developing further novel projects that should whet the appetite of any marketer. The time to get involved is now so that you are in on the ground floor of an opportunity that is causing a frenzy amongst those who understand its supportive philosophy and its very strength within the founding group of entrepreneurs.

Are YOU ready to Power Up Your Income?

This is virtually the text of an article I wrote about the Prosperizer opportunity for press releases and article directories which have gone online over the last few days. I am a newcomer to the delights of press releases and article marketing and despite basing this article on a ready made solo ad within the Prosperizer resources, It has needed several tweaks and additions, in order to suit the 3 basic writing styles required by the different text types found in: this blog, an article or a press release. An additional time eater was the learning curve involved in getting used to the different layouts of the various publishing portals. The real killer though, was when the Free Press Release site went down just before I copied the text of the article body into a notepad file … Coyses!!! This was a little ironic as I had just given my daughter a stern lecture on the importance of saving her work regularly if she was working at my computer!! Poetic justice!

What I have learned over the last couple of days has been very useful. I won’t profess to know a great deal about great copywriting yet, but there are a few little pointers for anyone who is venturing into the world of articles and press releases.

I used a very good FREE services to send out my press release about the changes to Prosperizer. Free Press Release.com is my first venture into online press releases. I found their site a wee bit tricky at first, but after a couple of visits, setting up my basic free account was very simple and once I had clicked around a couple of times I discovered excellent guidance on article writing and bashed away editing and redrafting my basic text to suit the sections of:

HEADLINE
SUMMARY
BODY
CONTACT DETAILS
KEYWORDS

Shortly after completing this article, I realised that I needed to do something to get my article higher in the rankings. I then took notice of the paid options and decided to cough up the initial $50 payment as there was a better value than paying the bare minimum. I converted my writing to a premium article for 1$. I was pleased to see my article on the homepage shortly afterwards, but I was way down the page in about 80th position. My next discovery was the article promotion section. It took me a few minutes to work out how this worked, but by bidding $20 my article was raised to 16th on the page and within half an hour I had noticed about 115 hits. Traffic is the whole point of Press releases and on first appearances that piece of hard work is beginning to have the desired effect. So from my initial experience I would highly recommend Free Press Release- and I don’t even get a commission!!

In my next post I will recount my entertainments when I tried to publish this work as an article. If you found this worth reading, many thanks for sticking around and all the best in your endeavours.
