is looking for "Insider Secrets" and
"Secret Weapons" to make their internet
business grow to unimaginable new heights. Well,
you came to the right place today because I am
about to give to you the most powerful
information you will ever receive in your online
career.
At first, it may not seem like much, but I want
you to put it to the test. It will push your
sales right into orbit where they belong in your
business. The most powerful internet
"Secret" that I know of is...
"Give First and Prove Your Worth..."
Give something away...And make it something of
value. Don't let it be just some junk you have
laying around or a rehash of something that has
been played to death over and over again.
Go with me for a moment and lets take a trip
around the world (on the Internet of course). Go
to one of the major search engines and visit
sites relating to your industry.
What do you see at most of them. I'll will
venture to say that probably 90% - 95% fall into
one of these three categories below:
1) A Corporate Site that gives you information
about the company, it's location, and it's
products. These sites are obviously institutional
advertising and are not making money online
(around 50% of the sites).
2) Next on the list are those sites which just
link to a bunch of affiliate programs. I don't
have a single thing to say against any affiliate
program, but if you don't have a congruent theme
and purpose to your site, then it just won't fit
the bill of successful sites (around 30% of sites
seem to fall in this category).
3) A better choice, but definitely not the best,
would be the a site which does have a product (or
products) which fits a theme and has a decently
well done sales letter full of benefits to go
with it. These sites can and are making money
online, but they never seem to break through the
invisible ceiling on their profits and become the
mega-success stories online (around 20% of sites
fall into this category).
When you really take a look at the sites which
are flooding their bank accounts with new cash,
you will find one common theme which flows
through all of them regardless of their business
or industry online...
They are giving first, and proving their worth.
What can you give away in your business that is
valuable to your prospects, but is low cost to
you? In this area, I LOVE the internet. With the
internet, we can create turn-key NO cost products
or turn-key programs on our web site which have a
very HIGH value, but have little or no cost for
us to give them away.
I want to give you some ideas below on items you
can give away, but I don't want you to limit your
thinking to just what I have listed. Open your
mind and begin thinking outside the box.
Go to the store and buy a notebook right now if
you don't have one and mark it for ideas. Write
on the first page, "My Prospects
Want..."
Then, every time you come up with something they
want, start looking around the net and thinking
of ways you can give it to them. Whenever you
come up with an idea no matter how farfetched it
may be, write it down. Then, as time passes, keep
looking over it and more ideas will flow and you
will figure out a way to do some of the ideas you
have written.
To get you started with ideas and possibly with
solutions, I want to give you a couple of the
ways web sites are profiting right now from the
"Give First..." principle:
1. Ezines - Many people have adopted the Opt-In
Email List plan for giving first. This is one of
my favorite methods which I have been
recommending to people for the last year (I also
wrote the course on it).
The strength behind owning your own Opt-In List
is that you can keep in constant contact with
your prospects and customers. The problem with it
is that way too many individuals are now just
producing me-too ezines that don't contain good
quality information for the readers. They are
just rehashes of other people's information or
just a sales presentation without any good solid
information.
How can you produce original content without
being a writer?
There is always a way...How about:
* Researching new tools in your business
(Software, sites, etc.)
* Doing interviews with Experts in your
industry.
* Simply answer questions which come in.
* Providing a Tip of the Day or Tip of the
Week Idea.
What else can you come up with?
2. Free Information - The Internet is the
"Information Superhighway."
The best way to introduce yourself
to your prospects is through providing Free
information on your web site. No matter what you
are selling: be it nutrition products, cleaning
products, business products, etc., you can find
information or create information to provide with
it.
For example, my FREE Electronic Book which is jam
packed with internet money making ideas is being
downloaded constantly. As a matter of fact, I
keep two download sites for it because it has
been receiving up to 827 downloads in one hour.
The title of it is "101 High Profit
Businesses You Can Start On The Internet With
Little or NO Money!" and it is full of
quality information.
Think about how you could do something just like
this in your industry. I also want to note that
you can offer this book on your site as well (it
makes a great incentive for people to subscribe
to your newsletter or to recommend others to your
web site). All you would have to do is link
directly to one of the download sites. Your
visitors never even have to leave your site!
Two Download Sites (Same Book):
http://www.allthesecrets.com/101.exe
http://www.internetshowcase.net/101.exe
3. CGI Programs - There are dozens of CGI
Programs out there which you can use on your site
to provide something free to give to your
visitors. Just take glance through the hundreds
of useful scripts you can find at
http://www.cgi-resources.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/
You could set up a discussion group, search
engine submission tools, free-for-all links site,
recommend a site scripts, dealer programs, and
more. You are really only limited to your
imagination and what your web server can handle.
To see some samples of these scripts in
operation, visit http://www.allthesecrets.com
Give First to Prove Your Worth...
No matter what type of Free product or service
you decide to provide, you need to come up with
something unique for your industry. What is it
that people want or need that you can provide for
a very low cost or at no cost?
Keep a notebook and come up with creative
solutions. Once you start giving upfront to your
prospects, watch your traffic and sales soar as
people start seeing just how much your business
is really worth to them. Once you have proven
your worth to them, they won't have any
reservations ordering from you.
