Joint Venture Invitation - This is not a sales page.
From the desk of: Thank You for your visit. I would like to personally invite you to team with me in a Joint Venture affiliate marketing program. You will shortly discover what that is and how you can receive $80 per sale, without shipping any products, just for promoting "The Perfect Health System". In addition, because your time is as valuable as mine, all the marketing software you see on this page will be given to you at no charge in exchange for the next 10 minutes of your time. Once again, I am not selling anything. Put away your credit card.
There is no product. There is no upsell product. There is no
One-Time-offer.
When you decided you were interested in starting a business and supplied your contact details on that "squeeze page" you found, you actually joined an opt-in, co-registration network. Don't panic! You became a "lead" for a data aggregator / lead collection firm and your details were put into a database and sold to interested marketers. (You were lucky! I am a member of that network. And that is going to pay off BIG TIME for you!). That's good because it gives you a chance to see what types of businesses are popular, the kinds of products that are being sold and the various affiliate programs that are being promoted. You thought it was worthless junk mail. It is not. It is valuable marketing data.
It depends on what you learn to do with that data that makes it valuable. What is a business? An eBook is not a business. A product is not a business. A mailing list is not a business. All of these things can be a part of your business, however by themselves, they are not a business. A business is a SYSTEM that allows you to deliver products to YOUR customers easily, cheaply and REPEATEDLY. Note the keywords "SYSTEM" and "REPEATEDLY". The system you build, whether a corporate structure with a building and employees or a series of Blogs containing articles, is the vehicle that allows you to deliver products to your customers. It is the REPLICATION of that SYSTEM that allows you to make money. And if you do it right and are patient, it could be alot of money. This is the secret of the rich. They are taught this by their families, not their colleges. They are taught to create a system and duplicate it. Rich people do BORING things over and over (or get someone else to do it for them) and make money. Most people not born with money cannot do that. Those people must have "jazz" and "drama" in their business. They want their business to be "interesting" and "meaningful". So when things gets boring they "make changes" and they fail. If you want to be successful in business, you must change your MINDSET (that
is why millions of people spend billions of dollars on personal development
every year) and create a system to help you reach your goals. Types of businesses you may be interested in:
Franchise - Don't get me started on these guys. A Franchise is for people that want to own a business, but are too lazy to read a few books. You pay tens of thousands of dollars for a "protected area" franchise (that they will change when it comes time for renewal) and hundreds of thousands more to outfit the store (the way they dictate). Then you will be selling product that you buy from them, at prices they specify and they will keep around 12% of your gross for the privilege. This is why the franchise guys are always so happy and why they wear Armani suits. Some people can make money with MLM just like some people can make money selling chocolate or diet soft drinks. The question is - IS IT A GOOD DEAL FOR THE CUSTOMER? To sell products to your customers you must LOVE the customer and they must be able to see that when they deal with you. 01. MLM is NOT a good deal for the customer because the prices are inflated to:
02. MLM is NOT a good deal for the distributor because they are building a business for the owners not for themselves. If you think I am joking just try pissing off the management and see how they treat you. Laugh? Google "MLM Lawyers" and see how many lawyers there are that defend distributors against MLM companies. MLM distributors are a commission only, no expenses paid, outside sales force. That's all. 03. MLM is a something-for-nothing, easy-way-to-riches, slickster marketing type business. If you believe in it fine, but I would hate to have a business where I have to hard sell every lead. And if you like being part of the NFL (No Friends Left) go ahead. The only reason the majority of the people get into MLM is because:
I believe that Niche Marketing is a better solution for your business than Network Marketing (MLM) for the following reasons. A famous Internet Guru once said - to have a business you must:
You need a system. Most internet marketers and especially Gurus will NOT tell you that. Throughout the history of the United States, the most effective machine for parting people from their money has been the circus (not so much these days, however the techniques are the same). The circus was a money magnet. A money vaccume. The circus "vaccume" was composed of dozens of sub-machines, each designed to remove money from unsuspecting townfolk. Each non-circus person was a "rube", meaning someone ready to be cheated or taken advantage of. Dictionary definition: Rube - "A naive or inexperienced person". Internet marketing is like that. Let me tell you a secret. I will be blunt. YOU ARE THE RUBE. Regardless of all the talk, claims and promises from certain "Internet Marketing Gurus", you are fresh meat. You are "A naive or inexperienced person". They will promise you the world... how they are going to help you "build your business", etc . They aren't. YOU are THEIR business. You are a "lead" that they put in their marketing "funnel" and they will keep trying to sell you as long as you live. Please remember this every single time you read a sales letter. If you are serious about having an internet business, sooner or later you will be tempted to attend an "Internet Marketing Conference". They are called "Pitch Fests". That means no matter how much you pay to get in, at the end of his talk, the speaker will try to sell you their $2000 to $5000 whiz-bang-o Internet Marketing Package. It could be books, services, mentoring, websites, partnerships,etc. And there are several Guru speakers at one of these events. Let me warn you - STAY AWAY. As a beginner, you DO NOT have the experience to utilize what they are selling (even if it is good, which most aren't). And these business systems ALWAYS cost money to implement. These conferences are worse than being on an email list. Don't be deceived by their designer golf shirts or because you can shake hands with them. These guys are professionals. They are trained in very high power selling techniques that use NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) to sell you on their products. NLP uses psychology and hypnosis to put you in the right mindset so that you will buy what is being offered. NLP is rumored to be a watered down version of some very top secret mind control / influence protocols developed by the CIA in the 1950's. Of course that is just a rumor. If you attend one of these conferences, leave your credit card at home. You might ask "Why are these Gurus willing to share their complete marketing systems with me for a couple of thousand dollars. I can duplicate what they are doing and compete with them" The answer is "You could. But you won't." Remember what that Guru said.
The hardest part is #3. Take action. Over 80% of the people that buy the big ticket internet marketing packages NEVER USE THEM!!! They forget about them. Something "better" comes along. They lose interest. So they do NOTHING. There are 5000 reasons why they sit home on their dead ass and never take action. The result is the same. Nothing happens and they are still stuck in their situation. And so the Gurus keep bringing in the big bucks. Want to see some of those Gurus? Visit GuruDaq.com. You might want to visit their websites and get on their lists. Just don't give them that credit card... My advice: 01. Google "Internet Giveaway's" and join every one. In return for your email address (use a separate address dedicated to Internet Marketing") you will receive a free information product. Yes, you can resell it. But more important, USE IT. Read and study the info in that product to get educated quick. Hotpop.com is a free POP email provider that is good for collecting offers. 02. Buy cheap (between $3-10) Private Label Rights (PLR) and Master Resale Rights (MMR) products to study and resell. EBay is a great place to start. Note: If you sell on EBay, always have an account dedicated to your business. Never use your personal account. 03. Make your own SYSTEM: Create Niche Blogs. Include articles for content. Then include affiliate products, adsense ads, CPA (cost per action) offers, Your PLR Rights Products and you can even sell text links to other Blog Owners. If you can create one, then you can create a hundred! Always use Wordpress installed on your own $5.95 a month server.
