Is Your Website Bringing You Lots of Quality Leads?
March 21, 2013 By Leave a Comment
If your website is NOT bringing you lots of quality leads EVERY MONTH, then you may want some advice on how to FIX it so your site does it's job. Your website should be designed, written and positioned to bring in leads and convert them successfully into paying customers consistently every month. Just because you have a website doesn't mean people know it's there - you have to market it. And just because people come to your website, doesn't mean people will buy, contact you or sign up for anything - most of the time, they won't. The TOP 3 THINGS to Look For On Your Website Are: Does my website speak directly to my ideal target client within 3 seconds of them landing on my … [Read more...]
I’m tired of all the hype….let’s get to the meat shall we?
March 6, 2013 By 2 Comments
I'm so tired of all the hype out there on the internet about "make millions at this or that or by doing this or that". Every week I talk with a minimum of 5 small business owners who've wasted time or money doing the wrong things because they listened to some free teleclass or someone teaching a supposed moneymaking process. I want to dispel the rumors out there that it's really that simple to make millions...or even $100,000 because it's not. To start, run, market and enjoy a consistently successful 6+ figure business there are two things you want to focus on: Spending your time wisely (and you may have to spend more time up front than "they say") doing the right revenue … [Read more...]
3 Steps to Repurposing Your Content For Consistent, Automatic Lead Generation
February 1, 2013 By Leave a Comment
Content IS king, it is true. If you're not developing new content at least every month and then sharing it in many different ways to drive leads and traffic to your business and your website then you're missing out on thousands of dollars in revenue. When you have more articles or blog posts on your website, you will organically drive more traffic to your site. When you have video tips and business tips on social media sites and YouTube too, you will get more exposure and you will have a farther reach for new prospects. When you hold your own teleclasses or become a guest on other calls and radio shows or programs you will be seen more as the expert you are. All of this … [Read more...]

Are You Living the Life You Want and Deserve?
July 24, 2012 By 2 Comments
When I first found out how much money I could truly make as a coach and entrepreneur I was shocked. No one in my family that I knew of ever made over $150,000 or so. It wasn't in my thinking that I'd probably do that in my lifetime but now it's a reality (and then some!). One of my first mentors in the Internet Marketing world taught me about living life to the fullest. But also living it like you had it all today and not waiting for it to come to live a full life, but to live it now. Now, granted, when this all came about the economy was booming and entrepreneurs I met were making tons of money. People were spending money on the Internet like crazy and if you were remotely savvy … [Read more...]

10 Simple Ways to Follow Up with Prospects
July 2, 2012 By 2 Comments
In any business it's important to develop simple follow up systems to keep on top of your prospects', customer's and referral sources' minds. If you don't do your follow up; you are wasting valuable marketing dollars and time you've already spent on gathering new leads. I used to do a lot of networking at chamber events, women's organizations and biz expos and I generally collected about 25-50 business cards from new contacts on a good week. I pay an assistant to enter them all into my computer database for me so I can easily mail merge them when I want to send out a mailer. I also enter them into my email database because I usually ask them in person if they want to receive my free … [Read more...]
What’s Up With All the ‘Mastermind Programs’ Out There and WHY Should I Consider Joining One Myself ? (Part 3)
June 27, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been talking with you about Mastermind programs. Why you should join, what they are, what the are not and which one would be the best fit for you. But ultimately…. What it all comes down to is how do you most like to learn and how are you most productive? You have to know your best learning style so you choose and invest in the programs and products that fit you and how you best learn so you don’t waste your money. I, for example, am NOT a good product learner. I don’t have good luck purchasing a home study kit or other listen to/read type of product and then actually sitting down working my way through it. It will sit on my shelf forever … [Read more...]
