Using Twitter as an Attraction Marketing Strategy: 4 Simple Steps

Kerri — Sat, 23 May 2009 13:00:51 +0000

There are various strategies adopted for generating leads and increasing sales by MLM leaders. Nobody would have thought some time back that a social communication site such as Twitter would play an important role in the area of attraction marketing. Here we present to you how you can make the most of Twitter as an attraction marketing strategy for your benefit in four easy steps.

Step #1

Always keep in mind that you are using Twitter for building long-lasting relationships and not just for generating business. It is not to be employed for direct marketing. People don’t like to maintain a relation with somebody who sends spam mails or one who is constantly trying to advertise his business. So use Twitter with discretion for creating an expert image for yourself.

Step #2

The next thing to do is decide well whom you are going to follow on Twitter. It is advisable that you follow someone that has matching interests as yours and is in the same business. For instance, if you are into direct sales of cosmetics then it would be fitting to follow another person that is into direct sales only. This way you can get guidance and profit from other people’s experiences.

Step #3

For achieving success in attraction marketing it is not necessary to keep on posting tweets or updates all the time. That is not going to help. Your posts should be valuable and of help to others. You can try and enter into conversations with those you follow and let them know your thoughts about a certain issue. You can share other helpful tools and information with them too.

Step #4

Before following others on Twitter you need to do some preliminary work. Firstly, register for an account and post a few tweets on it. It is better if you can add a link to some related topics in your niche so that visitors know who you are and what you do. Then you can scan for other people who work in the same area as yours and follow them. It is a great possibility that they might follow you back.

3 Quick And Easy Ways To Build A Profitable Opt In List

You finally realize that you need a good opt-in list. After reading countless articles and sought expert advices and have read many success stories of people creating a small fortune with opt-in lists you finally decide to have one of your own. Then it happens, you think you have known everything there is to know about opt-in lists and have followed their advices to the T and you still weren’t able to make a profit.

In fact, you may be losing money. You maybe hiring writers to help you out, or there are some expenses incurred, even if you have a big list, but only a very small percentage actually buys from you, your still losing profit. You’ll realize that after a few months when you see your statistics and sales figures.

So what could have gone wrong? Why have others succeeded where you have failed? The most common mistake is that you dived straight right in. You chose a topic where you think could be quite popular and would earn you money. This just not the case. Just because you wrote people from the list doesn’t mean they are going to buy instantly.

Here I will offer more advice, for those who have started an opt-in list and have failed, you can rejuvenate your failed venture. For those who are starting, here are three quick and easy ways to build a profitable opt-in list.

1) Get your customers to trust you and your products first. Just launching your opt-in list would not make you an expert and a believable seller. Put many articles first before you start an opt-in list. Write about the topic you know and have started and used for your site. Try to put forums first to gain knowledge about your customers about their wants and needs and target those wants and needs.

Join forums from other sites as well. Provide expert advices and recommendations. When you feel that people trust you already, you will be able to start your own opt-in list. You can build a base as well with other forum users. You can ask them to join your list. Friends are always good customers. Put up a link to your site so that they may be able to see what you’re business is all about.

The certain truth is, the money will only come in when the consumers and subscribers believe and trust in you. They want a product or service that could be a good exchange for their money. People are not going to buy something out of your recommendation if they don’t know you.

2) Find a product or service that people want and need. Although it may not be your forte, if you provide a service and product that you have researched and learned about well, you can carry it on forward. Invest your time, effort and money that you could sell as well as the buyers or subscribers of your opt-in list can use.

While it is true that it is best to sell something that you have interest in, there are not many people who have the same interest as you if you decide to sell something that is not entirely popular or profitable. Do your research well and you would see the profits come in. Also provide your subscribers with promotional material that they could actually use and spread around.

3) Make friends with other opt-in list users. This is basically beneficial especially if it is someone who has already launched a successful opt-in list. These are people that have the experience in this venture and experience is still the best teacher. While there are many articles available for you in the internet to use, there is nothing like getting a first hand account from someone you trust.

Experienced opt-in list users will be able to tell you what to do and what not to do because they have gone through it. While different situations occur for different people, the general concept can still be very helpful. There are many things to avoid and these people will be able to tell you which ones.

Building a profitable opt-in list don’t just happen overnight. There are many preparations and effort to do. Opt-in lists are built from scratch, as your list grows, you should also maintain the quality of your list. Keep it organized and manageable. Get or hire help if need be, just make sure that your subscribers are happy and satisfied and they will be willing to buy from you.

4-Step Lead Generation Technique

Kerri — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 18:08:53 +0000

One of the ways to build a long term business is to have a good database of contact list and also to teach your downlines build a list as well. I learnt from a personal mentoring workshop with Internet Super Affiliate Ewen Chia that the first thing is to put a form or squeeze page before the actual product/services that you are promoting.

When your website visitor submits the form then they are redirected to your business page ( in this case your MLM opportunity page). This way even if they don’t join you immediately, you would have gotten their email addresses which you can follow through.

In order to put this in place, you need the following:

A form/pop up/video/audio in your squeeze page to encourgae visitors to key in their emails
An automatic email responder that will send a welcome letter immediately to your prospects
Redirection to your main business page
Instant notification to you that you have a lead

The best way to set this up is to use an autoresponder. I recommend 2 of the best:

Aweber : $19.9/month for 10,000 leads
Grab That Lead: $9.97 for Platinum for unlimited leads.
Free membership available too.

If you already have an autoresponder membership, then check out this great report on how to maximize your profits with autoresponders.
