Where Can I Get Fresh Home Based Business Leads?|Brenda Franzo Get Fresh Home Business Opportunity Lead - The LeadsLeap Way September 5, 2008 | By Kenneth Koh | “Help! Where can I get fresh home business opportunity leads?” With so many home business opportunities sprouting, it seems that the only problem is where to find fresh leads for YOUR opportunity. In today’s blog, I’m going to show you how you can use LeadsLeap’s FREE system to solve your “lead” problem. I don’t dare to say LeadsLeap is the ONLY solution, but after reading the methodology, you decide if it’s a sound solution for you…… LeadsLeap is designed to help you get fresh home business opportunity lead through its two-prong approach. Approach #1 - Proprietary Lead Generation System LeadsLeap is essentially a lead generation system where you can build a network of leads that you can advertise to. If you are a LeadsLeap member, you know that I’m not referring to the traditional safelist advertising where you email your ‘n’ levels of downlines and flood each other’s inbox. I’m not going into the details. You can read more about the lead generation system here. What I do want to show you is an interesting example of a member’s referral statistic. Below is a recent enquiry I received from Chris: Why are my stats so distorted? What happened to my levels 1-3?????? Level 1: 6 Level 2: 0 Level 3: 2 Level 4: 332 Level 5: 355 Level 6: 111 Level 7: 15 Level 8: 0 Level 9: 0 Level 10: 0 Can you see what is happening? Chris has personally introduced 6 people to join LeadsLeap. Out of the 6 people, probably 1 of them introduced another person to join, but that person quitted for some reasons. That’s why Level 2 has 0 member. But before the person quitted, he introduced 2 people to join LeadsLeap (as shown in Level 3). This is where the magic happens. These 2 members bring in 332 people to LeadsLeap (as shown in Level 4), who in turn bring in 355 people and then 111 people and finally 15 people at the 7th level. I have no doubt that this is not the end of the story. The network will continue to grow. So to Chris, his initial effort of bringing in 6 people to LeadsLeap has brought him 821 prospects whom he can advertise to. Finish reading Approach #2, visit here. 3. Are Safelists An Effective Way to Market Your Home Based Business?|Brenda Franzo Are safelists an effective way to market your home based business? I believe if worked properly, using safelists as a tool to market your business can be extremely effective. Using safelists is an inexpensive, even no cost way to get your ad out to many, many prospective customers on a regular business. In safelist marketing, you can send your home based business ad out daily to a targeted market who are looking for what you have to offer. You can use a different ad everyday, promote different products, etc. unlike when you submit one ad for a spot in an ezine. The ad you are emailing is never considered to be spam because a safelist is of course, opt-in. When people sign up to send out their ads, they agree to receive mail from others on the list. Always track your ads however because some safelists are more responsive and have more active members then others. Then you will know which ones are working and which ones aren't and just concentrate using the responsive safelists on a daily basis. Many safelists now offer the ability to send your mail to more people by using credit links as a way to get you to read the email. Once read, click on the credit link and you will earn credits, enabling you to mail out to more people. The more credits you have, the more mailing you can do. Many safelists also offer a members area with information and tips on how to effectively market your home based business, as well as free tools and ebooks. Using safelists on a continous daily basis can be a very effective way to get word about your business or product out there in front of the masses. Just remember, you need to get a prospects attention to get them to first open the email. Make sure your ad copy and subject lines are your best work!

Social sites are the busiest sites on the Internet. So marketers look at the social marketing as the next wave of internet marketing. You probably have heard about social sites and benefit from them. Social sites provide a lot of freedom and interactivity for the users. Social sites are powered by the latest technologies like AJAX and allow their users to personalize the page backgrounds, style, post videos, post their music, share their favorites and connect with other people. Users can also post their pictures, share them with friends and invite or search for new friends. But how do social media sites help your site and its rankings? By sending huge amounts of visitors and getting you a good search engine ranking. There are two types of social sites. First type is social networking and the other type is social bookmarking. Social networking sites provide you an easy way to connect with other people who share similar interests like you. Sites like Facebook, MySpace, Orkut, Hi5, Friendster are popular among users. These sites have huge users base and provide an excellent opportunity for advertising your site. There are also specialized social networking sites like 43Things, Mothersclick, MomJunction which cater to specific interests.

In today’s blog post, my aim is to classify all the techniques into 5 main types. I will also discuss the key to success in each of them. Ready? Here we go…… 1) Content Advertising The first type of advertising technique is content advertising. It basically uses content to draw visitors’ attention. It is the main type of advertising technique because the entire internet is made up of content (or information). The following traffic strategies all fall under content advertising technique: - Submitting articles to article directories - Posting articles to Squidoo, Hubpages or Blogger - Posting articles to your own blog or content website - Press release - Paid reviews at other people’s website - Yahoo answers - Social bookmarking at Digg, Propeller etc - Post videos in video sites - Posting comments in forums In content advertising, you draw traffic from 2 sources. You either get the traffic from the website where the content is posted or from the search engine. Existing traffic from the website is given. There is nothing much you need to do other than making sure that your content is good and your title is interesting. The real challenge lies in getting traffic from the search engine. Your aim is to get high ranking in the search engine and direct the traffic from the search engine to your content and then to your website. This is done through careful keyword research and search engine optimization. 2) Link Advertising This type of advertising technique typically uses a short link with some description to attract the visitors directly to your website.

Patience is A Virture in Any Home Based Business Patience is a Virture in Any Home Based Business As internet marketers we sometimes seem to be so impatient, wanting instant gratification and wanted to make sales and see some income immediately. We tend not to give a program, or a business enough time to grow because of this, thus we are looking elsewhere in a matter of months. It's the time proven scenerio, the grass is always greener... Owning a home based business and building a steady income working from home is really not different than any other career and why would we think it would be? As in any job, (policeman, lawyer, etc...) there is a process of being trained properly. This goes for internet marketers as well. We need to learn before we can truly earn. Take farmers, for example. They have to have alot of patience. As internet marketers, we are not much different. Farmers start with small seeds, planting them in the ground. Then they have to take the time to water and feed the seeds, waiting patiently for the seeds to grow and produce the vegetable, fruit or flower they were meant to be. Finish reading, Visit here. 7. Top Internet Marketing Tips for Your Home Based Business|Brenda Franzo|Marketing Blueprint Top 10 Internet Marketing Tips By Gillian Meier (c) 2008 Internet Marketing has grown phenomenally over the last few years but the shift has quite clearly moved to a market that is driven by the consumer and that is no longer dictated by journalists and corporates. Online consumers are responding more favourably to non-intrusive, relevant and socially attractive campaigns and have quite frankly had enough of intrusive, forced online advertising campaigns. The top 10 internet marketing tips for 2008 are: 1. Optimize your website's content 2. Create a content development strategy for your website 3. Invest in a paid search (pay-per-click) campaign 4. Publicize your website through article marketing 5. Develop a social media marketing strategy 6. Create a Company Blog 7. Experiment with video marketing 8. Engage your audiences with web widget marketing 9. Discover the benefits of mobile marketing 10. Create an effective email marketing strategy Let's look at each of these in more detail: 1. Optimize Your Website's Content: First and foremost, get your website content right. Make sure it is easily read by both humans and search engines. An essential variable applied by Search Engines in the way in which they rank websites is based on the relevancy of the content that the search engine is indexing. 2. Create a Content Development Strategy for Your Website: In addition to optimizing the existing content on your website, it is essential that you develop a strategy to continuously increase your website's content on an ongoing basis. All new content should be written specifically with the web reader in mind and should also be optimized for the search engines. 3. Invest in a Paid Search (Pay-Per-Click) Campaign: When you pay for traffic (visitors) that click on your advertisements that are being advertised on search engines, this is called pay-per-click or search engine advertising. Paid search allows you to quickly leverage search engine traffic by bidding for keywords that are related to the products or services that you promote and sell on your website. Paid search advertising is particularly beneficial to companies who are not yet well ranked on search engines through natural search. Brick Marketing - Offers Affordable Website Marketing 4. Publicize Your Website Through Article Marketing: Article marketing is regarded by Internet marketing experts as one of the most effective promotional methods to publicize your website and to increase the number of back links (incoming links) to your website content. To ensure ongoing awareness, articles should be submitted to suitable article directories, content publishers, article announcement lists and content syndication (RSS feeds). Each article should be published on your own website first and should include a bookmark button to encourage social bookmarking. Finish Reading, Visit here. 8. What Really Determines Your Home Based Business Success|Internet Marketing Blueprint What Really Determines Your Home Based Business Success? People are working hard everyday at their 9-5 jobs to pay their utilities, mortgage, and the many other bills that accumulate each month. Many people have two jobs to make these ends meet and literally are on the run 24/7 stressed, worried and not taking the time to enjoy their lives. Many dream of working from home, making money online without ever having to work for someone else again. They dream about it, want it, but most will never attempt to make it a reality. I truly believe that one should just follow their dream and believe in themselves and what they can do. I'm not saying to just quit a job and think you are going to join the latest, greatest program and become rich overnight as there is planning and research involved. But what I am saying is that people should really give themselves and chance and believe that their dreams CAN become reality.

Marketing 101: Develop a powerful and compelling core message. “Say something, say it well, say it often.” Why should customers buy from you? Why should they even take a second glance? You need to build a powerful message that gets key points across without clutter … because clutter is what leads to abandonment. Although this is the essence of a successful branding and marketing campaign, you’d be surprised how many companies fail to grasp this concept. 2. Make sure your core message is “benefit oriented.” People don’t buy services or products, they buy the benefits of those services or products. In all your communications, make sure your message translates into specific benefits. 3. Make sure your initial message directs prospects toward a specific action. Your customers want to be told where to go to find the solutions they seek. This should be abundantly clear to all four major personality groups (Amiables, Drivers, Expressives, and Analyticals). When you invite customers to go somewhere to learn how to interact with your site and find out more about your company, you can greatly increase your potential for conversions. 4. Develop imagery that enhances your message and intrigues your target audience. The images on your site should enhance your message by being visually stimulating. Sometimes this may only be an aesthetic; other times it may involve “timelining” imagery and content together to use space more effectively and get across a message in a more distinctive fashion. 5. Develop a unique value proposition (UVP). Sit down with a branding or marketing expert and define a UVP for your company as a reminder of your competitive advantages. Make sure these advantages are customer-centric, not business-centric. 6. Incorporate your UVP into all online and off-line media for brand consistency and saturation. Make sure your message constantly reiterates your competitive benefits and your UVP. You never know which aspect of your brand a prospect might respond to, so make sure the message is consistently broadcast in whatever media you use. 7. Tell customers what they want to hear, not what you want to tell them. We call this inside-out marketing. Too often, companies unknowingly focus on what they want to say, rather than what customers want to hear. An outside-in perspective with a true 360° view of your company from the customer’s viewpoint is best accomplished with the help of a qualified branding and marketing firm that can determine customers’ attitudes, expectations, and requirements. 8. Build value … not boredom. I leave this one to Napoleon Hill: “It is as useless to try to sell a man something until you have first made him want to listen as it would be to command the earth to stop rotating” (Think and Grow Rich) 9.Lead with a header and close with a call to action. Readers are much more likely to read your message, white papers, case studies, etc., if you pique their interest or curiosity through well-written headers, transition headers, body content, and calls to action that lead to the next step in a sales cycle. 10. “SCAN I AM.” Today’s readers don’t read, they scan. They scan for areas of interest, offers, links to relevant information, etc. So it is important to set up your text so that it can be quickly scanned. Online text is not linear like a book; it’s interactive to follow users’ nonlinear demands. 11. Develop a branding “blueprint” that … shows clearly how you expect prospects to interact with your messages. This blueprint should start with an outline and show all paths from all forms of communication and how they lead to firm sales. Again, marketing and branding professionals can help develop a plan. 12. Evaluate your plan. Have others evaluate your plan. Re-evaluate and adjust. No plan is perfect, and any plan should be constantly adjusted to maximize its effectiveness. It is critical to continually audit your branding plan and all your marketing media. 13. Re-evaluate again. 14. Adjust your blueprint … to adapt to the market, trends, technologies, customer demands, etc. Review quarterly. Every successful brand in the world is optimized regularly. Branding is an ongoing effort, not a one-time occurrence. Finish reading, visit here. 10. Home Based Business: Mistakes to Avoid|Brenda Franzo Home Based Business: Mistakes to Avoid Every day people are entering the online world of home based business. People want to work from home and make money online rather than commute to an everyday job. This is a wonderful opportunity that brings excitement to just about anyone, but is it possible to succeed? Many people do infact succeed, however, just as many people fail daily. As in any business, preparation and planning are key. Before jumping into any home based business, make certain you have done your research on Google. Here are some common mistakes that you will definitely want to avoid: Not having a marketing plan: a marketing plan is extremely important for any business online as well as offline. There are many effective ways to promote your business online, you just have to test and try them out, see what works for you. Try promoting your online business in the offline world as well using postcards, flyers, etc. Your research in this area will pay off. Joining the wrong program: There are many, many programs out there today. Never just join a program or business based on the amazing deals or promises of becoming rich overnight. Do the research, focus on business that have been around for awhile and have established themselves online. Research the payment plans - will you just be receiving commissions on your own sales or will you be earning on your referrals as well? Finish reading, visit here. 11. Avoiding Home Based Business Scams|Brenda Franzo Avoiding Home Based Business Scams Planning on starting your own home based business? Want to work from home, making money online? Always do your research on Google. As you may already be aware, not all home based business opportunities are for real. There are may work at home scams out there, being advertised everyday and you need to be careful. Here are some tell tale signs that what you are looking at is a scam: If a business promises that you will make millions in just a few short months, then beware. Especially if they also say you don't have to do anything, don't even give it a second look. Every real business opportunity requires hard work, time and effort on your part to become successful. There's no way you can make money just by signing up for a program and then sitting back and relaxing. If a business opportunity requires you to send in a payment of any kind just to learn more about the business, that's another sign of a scam. A legitimate business never requires money in return for information. Finish reading, visit here. 12. Bringing Your Home Based Business Back to Life Bringing Your New Home Based Business Back to Life You drag yourself into the kitchen after a hard day at the office. Staring glumly at the empty fridge, you try to block out the sounds of the kids squabbling, the dog barking to go outside, and the blare of the TV in the background. You are just so tired. Day after day, week after week, you promise yourself that you're going to work on your home business. What business, you think bitterly, The one that still hasn't produced a single thin dime? That's the one. It is incredibly easy to get discouraged when your business isn't making money, and even more so when your life is filled with other priorities. You're just plain worn out and you don't savor the prospect of spending your precious free time struggling with a business that has yet to turn a profit. But the simple fact of the matter is: If you don't work your business, who will? To get anywhere in life you have to work hard. It may involve some short-term sacrifices, that's where you'll have to sit down with your family and figure out whether those sacrifices will justify the end result.

Creating A Search Engine Copywriting Plan Creating A Search Engine Copywriting Plan Search engine copywriting has become an extremely important part of the overall search engine optimization process. However, in addition, search engine copywriting has developed into a misunderstood craft. Shoving keywords in anywhere they can possibly go is not considered search engine copywriting. The process is more defined than that. Successful SEO copywriting takes planning. Any half-hearted efforts at writing copy geared strictly toward the engines will usually result in a decline in your customer's experience at your site. What's the best way to write SEO copy? Starting with a plan is always a good idea. Keep in mind, these are guidelines of techniques that can be used *IF* they make sense for your site visitors. I never recommend writing solely for the search engines. In the case of search engine copywriting, the customer is truly #1. 1) Use Three Keyphrases Per Page - Not a carved-in-stone rule, the guideline of three keyphrases per page gives good variety and helps keep the copy from sounding too repetitive. I always choose keyphrases first - before I write - because they can have a direct impact on the focus of the page. 2) Have 250 or More Words of Copy - The length of your copy depends on several things: Your target customer's preferred communication style, whether the product is new to the marketplace, if a detailed explanation needs to be given, site design and many other factors. However, the 250-word minimum gives enough room to get your message across and offer an effective level of keyword support. Remember though, it's all about the customer. If your target customers prefer longer copy, write longer copy. If they like shorter copy, write shorter copy. Finish reading, visit here. 18. The Effectiveness of Empty Space Here's a very interesting article I found while reading the EntireWeb Newsletter. Thought I post it...Food for thought... The Effectiveness of an Empty Space So much time is spent on what should go into your ad that we sometimes neglect one of the most important and eye catching elements, the empty spaces. This is really one of the simplest, but easiest to mess up, factors of your print design. Have you ever listened to a song like the Who's "Wont Get Fooled Again" or similar songs that build up to a crescendo then suddenly have a break in the music before kicking the guitars back into overdrive? That empty space in the music is powerful. It can give you goose bumps and it can make a whole room feel electric. When the music starts again and breaks that moment of silence, the notes sound louder and more powerful as a result. This isn't a trick that is reserved only for musicians. The same principle applies to ad design (or any sort of design, for that matter). Finish reading...Visit here. 19. Is Your Home Based Business Website being Seen? There a many individuals today looking to work from home, operating their own online business. Search Google and you can see all the opportunities that exist. Do your research however to weed out the scam programs from the honest ones. So once you have established what niche your business is going to be in, how do you promote it and get the world to see it? If you don't advertise, your business isn't seen, if your business isn't seen, there will be no sales, no profits...regardless whatever your product or service is, you have to advertise to get traffic to your blogs or websites. One thing to keep in mind, not all traffic to your sites or blogs is equal. There is traffic and then there is targeted traffic. You want people that have an interest in your product or service viewing your sites. You can drive tons of traffic to your site, but it will do you no good if those visitors are not looking for what you have to offer. So, how do you generate good quality, targeted traffic? And bring potential customers to your site without having to chase them down.

Starting A Home Based Business on a Budget Starting a Home Business on a Budget Have you ever dreamed of starting your own business? Have you wondered what it would be like to get up every morning and be in control of your financial destiny without having to depend on a job? Perhaps you enjoy your job and you simply want to start a part-time business from home to supplement your income but the problem is you have very little extra money to invest in a new venture. If this is your dream then now is the time. Never before in history has there been a better time to start a home business and this is especially true for those on a limited budget. Why is this so? The answer is simple. The World Wide Web. The Internet has enabled hundreds of thousands of people to start home businesses working from home with very little start up cash. It is now possible for individuals working from home in their pajamas to start businesses and compete in the global marketplace on the same playing field as large corporations.

One of the most intriguing questions in any home based business or marketing online, concerns the idea of a perpetual traffic machine. Create a website and design a system of automatic programs (both interior and exterior) that delivers content and backlinks to a site that updates itself automatically and keeps growing without any help from the creator. In the process you build a flow of traffic that never stops, even if the site is abandoned or not touched for a couple of years or never again. Is such a perpetual traffic system really possible? Before you conjure up pictures of HAL and creepy talking computers in distant space... realize that question may carry more weight than it would seem at first glance. But is it like its predecessor, the perpetual motion machine - just more an illusion than actual fact? Let's say, working from home and for curiosity's sake if for nothing else, the idea of a perpetual traffic machine does require further investigation. Such a system would have special interest for millions of webmasters whose main task is acquiring traffic for their sites, not to mention the potential for monetary gain a PTM (rhymes with ATM) would produce. Some credence was given to the idea recently when Tinu Abayomi-Paul, a well-known online free traffic expert, produced with the help of Marlon Sanders an info-product entitled "The Evergreen Traffic Machine." Tinu's story is very interesting. Tinu had built up a whole array of sites and optimized them successfully for countless keywords in all the major search engines. She had built up a steady flow of traffic, resulting in thousands of visitors "a day" to her sites. This in itself is not that extraordinary, but that's not the full story.

If you get some truthful answers which are backed up with statistics, or other people's contact that you can talk with as well, this may just be what you are looking for.
