3 Free Resources To Skyrocket Your Profit

3 Free Resources To Skyrocket Your Profit
By Jimmy D. Brown

I read this by Jimmy D Brown and thought perhaps someone else might be interested.

Sound advice indeed ! I hope Jimmy doesn’t mind but this needs sharing.

“Dear iBusiness Owner,

Everywhere you turn you’ll find people offering some kind of magic potion for starting or growing an Internet business.

Fast results. Easy steps. Big money. These are the claims that are made over and over again. Yet the overwhelming majority of people who buy into these potions never see those claims realized.

There must be a reason for that.

What I want to share with you today isn’t a magic potion. It’s not even a lucky horse shoe or a four leaf clover. They are simple three resources that anyone can tap into to see a big spike in profit.

If you’re looking for a genie in a bottle, look elsewhere. If you’re looking for something real, this is for you…

1. MASTERY. The first “resource” that I highly recommend is the “mastery” of a singular method of generating profit. There is amazing productivity and progress when you strip away all of the distractions and focus on one thing that you can become very good at.

One of the problems that trips up most would-be iBusiness Owners is the attempt to do many different things. They dabble at affiliate marketing. Try a little eBay. Then they work with PLR. Or create their own ebooks. Or…

They spread themselves too thin. No one has the time to learn and implement all of of the different components of running an Internet business. In most cases nothing gets done.

I’m a big believer in becoming a “master” at something. Find ONE way to make money online – just ONE model – and become fluent in it. Don’t try this and that. Just try one thing and stick with it until you are world class at it. Resist the urge to chase after the next shiny thing that comes along.

You can add in other options LATER … after you have been successful in your initial, focused pursuit.

Example: If you choose to make money as an “affiliate marketer” then make that your primary pursuit until you have mastered it and are making a sustainable income from it. Then, once that has been established, start creating your own products. Or buy licensing to other people’s products. Or rewrite PLR materials.

 

The point is to become a master at something before attempting other things. This one shift in your thinking can be extremely impactful upon your business. Oftentimes it is the difference between success and failure.

2. MOMENTUM. Once you have decided a path to pursue, stick to it! I have used the illustration of pushing a car in the past. If a car is parked and you start pushing it, at first it doesn’t budge. Then it moves slightly. Then it ever-so-slowly begins to move. Then it moves a little faster. After a while you are pushing the car at a steady speed. If you quit anytime before it arrives at “steady speed” then things will come to a grinding halt.

The same can be said of your business. There are a lot of “starters” in business, but not a lot of “finishers”. Many people get started pushing but don’t see immediate results, so they stop. They look for another car and push it. Nothing happens, so they stop. They push another car. And they never get MOMENTUM.

 

Let me assure you of this one thing: if you quit too soon your business will come to a grinding halt. You must commit to continuing on until you have arrived at your successful destination.

The question is … how?

How does one keep pushing when results are not noticeable? How does one keep pushing when another shiny car is set beside them and it looks like it might be easier to push? How does one keep pushing when they aren’t getting results as quickly as they’d like?

Here’s the final resource you need…

3. MOTIVATION. A powerful mechanism for sticking to it is your motivation. Those who successfully lose weight usually do so because they are motivated. Those who stop drinking or smoking usually do so because they are motivated. Those who succeed in business usually do so because they are motivated.

When I say “motivated” I don’t mean that they possess some kind of super powers that mere mortals don’t have. Nothing like that. What they possess is simple: there’s something that drives them to stick with it. There’s something in their lives – or something they want in their lives – that is so strong that it compels them to never give up until they obtain it.

 

Maybe that’s a desire to be rid of the bondage of debt. It could be a desire to better provide for your family. Perhaps it’s a desire to travel, buy something, free up your time or send your kids to college. It could be anything. As long as it’s a powerful presence in your life.

Ask yourself why you really want to succeed. It might be to benefit others or it might be something completely about you. Whatever it is, let it fuel you to stick to it. Think about how great it will feel to be free of that debt, or what you’l be able to do with your extra time, or what the seats of that new car will smell like or your children getting that college education.

 

Conclusion

There are a lot of “magic potions” being sold. But there is no magic. Those that succeed in business don’t do so because they have the aid of a genie or elves or a rabbitt’s foot. They succeed because of mastery, momentum and motivation.

If you’ll choose a model for generating profit and stick to it because you are passionate about someone or something, sooner or later you’ll see your profit skyrocket.

God bless,

Jimmy D. Brown”

John Thornhills One Month Mentor Program

 

Are you spinning your wheels, wondering if you will ever get your online business up and running? Wondering where to start?

It can seem frightening starting your own business, especially online with so many choices. Many newer marketers can fail quite quickly as it can seem so intimidating and confusing, and they eventually give up all together on their hopes of having their own online business up and running.

In fact if you are feeling like this, it isn’t your fault, most of us have been in the same situation. Yes, even the gurus at one time.

Many newer marketers give up because they get caught up with the constant bombardment of latest and greatest shiny objects, buying numerous products which always promise instant online riches. This means they eventually find themselves suffering from information overload and simply don’t know where to turn next.

One of the most common questions asked in forums, email inboxes, blog comments and so on is ‘How do I get started online and get my business up and running’. Whilst the answer to this question varies for everyone, 99% of the time these newer marketers simply need a mentor – someone to guide them and show them the right way.

A good mentor is someone who has been there, done it all and is successful at internet marketing. This mentor will pass on the benefits of his or her experiences which will save you both time and money.

To use a slightly overworked phrase you need to “stand on the shoulders of giants”.

This short(1.33) video by Tony Robbins today which very briefly sums it up and which is called “Get The Best Tools”.

Having a mentor would allow you to keep focused on one task at a time and once this task is finished move you on to the next task remaining focussed on building your online business.

This mentor will also guide you through the scams, hype-filled products etc.which will prevent you and your online business becoming flooded by the endless flow of information coming at you from the internet.

Further to that, a mentor is someone that you can to make yourself accountable to. By working to a self imposed deadline and being gently kept to that timeline by your mentor means that you will keep moving forward and help you to meet your deadlines.
Meeting deadlines and time keeping is an important skill to learn when first starting out online and also throughout your time on the internet.

However, it is often the case that even some of the better mentors assume that you know the basics already, where the reality is that most people new to this business want a course that starts right at the very beginning and then proceeds to show you, over the shoulder, step by baby step, how it is done!
This needs to be done in such a way that even the computer illiterate person or newbie can understand it.

So, where do I find this mentor that is going to guide me through the maze?

John Thornhill has an enviable reputation as one of the better, honest, straight-up marketers, and I know from personal experience with his Masterclass a few years ago, that he teaches in the step by step, straight forward, over the shoulder way that I mentioned above.

John recently ran a 31 Day Intensive Coaching Program (John Thornhills One Month Mentor Program) which was very successful and as this is finished he is now opening the doors again. This will be limited by the number of people who join as he gives total support and even personal direct contact, both through the duration of the course – and after.

So, if it is what you need to finally get to where you need to go in internet marketing then I thoroughly recommend John Thornhill as a mentor.

You can find out more details about this Coaching Program from here:

This is a tip I came across recently which I liked a lot. It is a possible timesaver when you are researching your keywords for competition….

Do a Google search for the keyword you’re analyzing
Click on the “2″ (Page 2) to see more listings.

The address bar will now contain a load of rubbish/garbage (I searched Traffic Dashboard) :

http://www.google.se/search?q=Traffic+Dashboard&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&client=firefox-a&rlz=1R1GGLL_en___SE374#q=Traffic+Dashboard&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=PEM&rlz=1R1GGLL_en___SE374&prmd=ivns&ei=BqU-TfrAHJDGswb_263XBA&start=10&sa=N&fp=de8b3f178a30af3a

including “&start=10&”  (underlined and bold above).

Change the 10 to 990 to see the final listings page.

At the bottom of the listings you’ll see these words -

“In order to show you the most relevant results, we have
omitted some entries very similar to the XYZ already
displayed.”

XYZ will be a number from 1 – 1000.

You can use this to judge how difficult a keyword is
going to be to rank for.

1-250 = easy money
250 – 500 = requires work
500 – 750 = tough
750 – 1000 = impossible!

It’s not perfect but it does give you a fast way to sort through a long list of keywords and find the ones most likely to do well for you.
I like this and I hope you do to.
Talk soon

Google Analytics – Do I Really Need It?

If you are the same as I was, and are reading this, then you are probably one of the many people who use Google Analytics only for the basic statistics and user tracking.

You probably stick to the reports that can be found on the dashboard and that usually leave probably thinking to yourself: Hmm. Very interesting! Not many visits this week etc.

You could also possibly feel that you don‘t need any more analytical information than that.

So what exactly is Google Analytics and why should you know more about it?

SEO Keywords Made Easy With Google Wonder Wheel

Google Wonder Wheel is a graphical wheel display of relevant search terms which shows related search terms to the current searched query.

This tool is in fact a built in mind mapper which searches out results in a logical way of relevancy creating a visual wheel of terms that can make your searching much easier and quicker.

Or to put it more plainly, this is a wheel which shows the main search term in a central hub with related terms like the spokes of a wheel.

Click on one of the related search terms and a new wheel will be created around that term. You can then click on a related term in that wheel and a further wheel is created … and so on.

This enables you to explore relevant search terms which might be the ones you originally wanted to search for, or simply give you more options to gain more information.
