Day 13

By on August 15, 2011

 

Today you will be participating in the forums. The more you help people, the faster you gain credibility and get noticed.

Make sure you have completed yesterdays task before you begin today’s.

If you have completed the task from yesterday, well done! keep up the great work! :-)

takes time to build, but it is well worth the effort. Keep going and you will become an affiliate master.

In martial arts there is a wrong way to do a kick and a right way. If you do it wrong it is going to hurt you, if you do it correctly you’ll get the desired result.

Same with – there is a right and wrong way to do it. Make sure you do it the right way to ensure you get results that last.

Today we will be doing . This is a strategy you should actively be doing on a consistent basis.

Many people get forum marketing totally wrong. Do not spam and blatantly promote in every post – this ruins your credibility and respect.

It’s important that you always aim to add value as much as you possibly can.

This way, you help establish yourself as an authority in your niche. Over time, your post count will increase which helps add credibility to your advice.

Why?

Because people can see you’ve been around for quite a while. When you spend time on adding a helpful, valuable comment people can see you have expertise.

When you position yourself this way, many people are curious to learn more about you. They do this by clicking on the link in your signature.

It’s better to focus on the largest forums in your niche because there are more viewers to see your valuable posts.

Also, the more activity on a forum, the easier it will be to find ways to add value.

I mentioned in previous training to try using a countdown timer. If you didn’t, please try it out!

It can save you a ton of time.

Here’s how to use the countdown timer effectively:

Before you begin writing in a forum, decide how many posts you’re going to do and how long you expect it to take.

Then set your countdown timer less than that. This will help push you to complete it done faster.

Try and complete the task before the countdown timer gets down to zero.

This works very well for a lot of people – not everyone likes it, but give it a shot.

This technique can also be used on all the tasks you do online. Id highly recommend doing it, as it has saved me countless hours of time.

So let’s get started, here is your task for today:


Forum Marketing

1. Write and submit three forum posts to each of the forums that you have joined. (You can refer to the Forum Marketing Training Manual).

Make sure you add value to help add credibility to you and your website.

 

Day 12

By on August 15, 2011

 

Welcome to day 12 of “How To Become An Affiliate Master Using The Principles of Bruce Lee”

Well done for making it this far – as you can see making it in the online world takes dedication and by making it this far that’s exactly what you’re showing you have.

Keep in mind results are slow in the beginning, that’s why I keep saying repetition is important. It’s not about how much you get to your website, it’s about how qualified that is.

100 visits from people who want what you’re offering is much better than 10000 visits from people who aren’t even interested in what you’re offering.

needs to be done on a consistent basis as it is a great way to build long-term, sustainable traffic.

Today you will be writing and submitting another article.

Please make sure you have completed yesterdays task before beginning today’s.

By now you have probably noticed you’re getting faster at writing .

I’d recommend having a quick look through the Article Marketing Training Manual again.

Now that you’ve done your first article you will most likely pick things up that you didn’t the first time you read through the training.

The more you practice writing articles the faster you will get (especially if you’re using your count down timer).

You may also want to consider writing different to help expand your writing.

By writing regular content you’ll get better results and over time your efforts will compound to bring in a steady stream of traffic.

Article marketing is a strategy that has fundamentally worked for years and will continue to work for years in the future.

You want to focus on long term strategies that will bring in a consistent stream of traffic.

Article marketing is one of them.

The more articles you have, the more sources of traffic you will have.

Today you will have two options as to what you can do for your article marketing.

Let’s get started:


Article Marketing

1. Write an article that follows the criteria set out in your Article Marketing Training Manual.

You may choose to either write an article based on the last that you created

OR

You can write a brand new article.

2. Submit your article to the article directories that you signed up to.

Congratulations! I applaud you for making it this far – keep up the great work!

You’ve definitely been using the principles of Bruce Lee, most people quit or never actually start taking action.

By the end of these 28 days you will be well on your way to becoming an affiliate Master. You’re learning the important fundamentals, just like in martial arts, Bruce Lee had to master the fundamentals first – he kept practicing and practicing. The only way he got better was by doing – not by reading about it.

Same with affiliate marketing- keep learning and doing the fundamentals until you master them.

This training builds upon itself, which means it’s important you complete each day.

is the life blood of your business, without it you make no money. Period.

Why?

If no one is visiting your site, no one is buying from it. Traffic builds over time when you take consistent action.

Today you will be learning about .

Article marketing is a strategy that has fundamentally worked for years, and will continue to work for years in the future. You want to focus on long term strategies that will bring in a consistent stream of traffic.

When it comes to article marketing, being persistent is the key (one of Bruce Lee’s principles). By writing regular content you’ll get better results and your efforts will compound over time to bring in a steady stream of traffic.

So many traffic sources just disappear over night, article marketing is something that will last.

The more you practice these strategies, the faster you’ll get.

Just like all the strategies, there is always a good and bad way to do things – article marketing is no different.

In the training, I delve right into the specifics of article marketing to help ensure you do it correctly for maximum results.

The key is to write good that are readable and informative.

I go through all the different styles of articles a long with some great tips to help speed up the article writing process.

With that said, let’s get started:

Day 7

By on August 14, 2011

 

Welcome to day 7 of your training. Please make sure you finished yesterdays task before you begin this one.

These build upon themselves and have been carefully structured to follow a proven system which will enable you to build long term sustainable .

Today’s task builds from what you learned yesterday.

That’s right, today you will be creating your first ! This step will become much easier and faster after you do it the first time :-)

You’ve seen how powerful video is, it’s a highly recommended strategy because so many people watch . I have provided you with video training to help make the process as easy as possible for you.

Video can be quite time consuming, especially when starting out.

Remember you only need to do the video once, then it’s out there generating traffic for you forever – even while you sleep.

If you’d rather not get in front of a camera that’s totally fine – do a screen capture video. There are different options all outlined in the training.

My personal favorite is recording my screen. It’s fast, easy and makes it really simple to show people exactly how to do something.

Another option for screen capture is to record a powerpoint presentation. This is all outlined in the training you read – so if you need to, feel free to refer back to it.

The videos you create do not have to be long… 1-3 minutes is the optimal length. Just make sure your video doesn’t go any longer than 10 minutes otherwise Youtube will not let you upload it.

Have fun with it, your videos will improve over time. Remember, it doesn’t need to be perfect, just get something out there J

So with that said, let’s get started:

1. Choose one of the videos from your list and create an outline for it.

2. Record your video (if you need help to do this, please see the video tutorials here).

3. Upload your video to YouTube.

You may need to refer back to Video Marketing Training Manual.

Day 4

By on August 14, 2011


Hopefully you have completed yesterday’s task. If not, go and do it now and complete this task tomorrow.

It’s important that you follow each day because they build upon themselves. The key with generation is repetition .

Consistently focus and take action on the outlined in this course because it all compounds over time.

Use the principles of Bruce Lee towards your :

  • Self discipline
  • Dedication
  • Persistence
  • Action

You will be learning the fundamentals and working your way towards mastering them. In martial arts Bruce Lee mastered the fundamentals before expanding his knowledge and training with different fighting styles.

You’re doing the same thing with affiliate marketing and traffic generation.

By following the traffic strategies you will be able to build a consistent stream of traffic to your site for years to come.

There are so many traffic strategies out there that just stop working or get your website banned from the search engines. It’s important to steer clear of those – it’s not worth risking your whole business on it.

There are traffic strategies that fundamentally have worked for years and will continue to work for years to come. With that said let’s get started:

Today’s task is .

Forum marketing is definitely one of those strategies that build over time.

Think about it, if you post 3 posts per day that add value, in one year you will have 1095 posts.

Each post has a signature with a link to your site. Those posts are there forever, when people come and read your posts they can potentially visit your site via your signature.

That happens day in day out even when you’re asleep.

Forum marketing is a powerful strategy because you can instantly put yourself in front of your target market.

There are so many different forums out there for all kinds of niches.

But be warned – there is a right and wrong way to do forum marketing, I have created a manual for you to read to help ensure you do it the right way.

So let’s get started…

Forum Marketing

1. Read the Forum Marketing Training Manual.

2. Read through the manual.

3. Find 2-3 popular niche forums to start building your credibility.

4. Register with each of the forums and carefully read through the forum rules before you begin posting.

5. Set up your signature with your website link (if you’re allowed to).

: The Life-Blood of Your Business

It’s true.

Every business needs traffic to survive.

Traffic is simply people, and without people coming to your website, you won’t have anyone to buy your product.

Right now there are people online searching for exactly what you have to offer. Once you put yourself in front of these people, they will have the  opportunity to buy your product or service.

Even if your website is optimized as much as it can be and your product is the best in the world… you still need traffic.

If you’re like many other business owners you’re probably impatient. The truth is, many traffic sources take time to build. And you have to stick with a strategy long enough to see results.

The problem is many people get fed up. They think the they’re using are not working and try something else.

Being patient, persistent and consistent is the key to reaping the long-term rewards of sustainable traffic.

There is no quick fix so please don’t bother looking for one. There are some strategies that are quick to implement that can drive traffic quickly to your sites, but the traffic rarely lasts long (e.g. an affiliate promotion).

There are literally hundreds of ways to encourage traffic to your site. We are going to cover the strategies that have been proven to work.

It’s your job to implement them.

Where have your customers just come from? Where were they before they came to you? What was it that motivated them to come to your site?

The copy that you’re going to write for a landing page with directed from AdSense, may need to be quite different from a landing page with directed from JV’s.

(It’s even better if you can customize the JV traffic so it’s specific to the affiliate. This can increase your conversions.)

What Mindset Is Your Customer In?

Knowing that every person comes from somewhere else, it’s important you find out what state of mind they’re in. Why is that person coming to your website? What are they searching for?

I know there’s been a lot of hype recently about Facebook advertising versus Google. To me most of the arguments misses a fundamental point.

Facebook users are not searching for products. They’re sitting there chatting with friends. Google users, on the other hand, are searching for something.

So, it’s not to say that you can’t generate leads from Facebook, and you can’t generate money from Facebook advertising—of course you can.

But you need to make sure when you write your copy that you’re taking into consideration the mindset that the customer is in while they’re on that page.

Where Is Your Customer Going Next?

Just as you need to be aware where you customers have just been, you need to know where they’re going next.

Where are they going and what do you want them to think about next? What action do you want them to take? And what do you want them to buy?

How to Boost to Your : 2 Quick Ways

The more traffic you can attract to your squeeze page, the more people you can pull into your sales funnel; therefore, the more money you can make.

Here are two quick ways to increase the traffic to your squeeze page.

1.   

If you just have a squeeze page and nothing else, the average affiliate won’t bother sending traffic to your squeeze page.

This is because there is no incentive for them.

But when you have a OTO (which is a valuable and related up-sell to one of your products or services) where you give affiliates a commission for  sending people to your squeeze page, they will be happy to promote your offer.

There’s plenty of potential to build a strong list (and make some sales) from your OTO, via affiliates alone.

2.   

Type your niche into Google and scour the websites to see which website owners are also trying to build an e-mail list. You’ll see the familiar optin box  on their website.

Contact the website owner and explain that you potentially have the same customer base (as your product is related) and ask if they are interested in  sending people to your squeeze page. In return you’ll do the same for them.

Once you have a small list, you can increase the numbers quickly by doing an ad swap. You offer to send your list to someone else’s opt-in page, and  they’ll do the same for you in return.

You may lose some subscribers in the process, because you’re essentially asking them to opt-in to someone else’s list. But if you do it right you
