Why it's been quiet around here....
I know it's been really quiet around here for a while now. There is a big reason why. We've been working totally focused on the re-launch of your internet marketing training site. The basic question was this: Our training site, content, live webinars and recorded training videos were helping many people from all kinds of programs to begin to learn real marketing. They were learning the big picture...How every piece of the puzzle linked together to create one system...Which pieces were important and which were a waste...How to drive traffic, brand, build relationships and convert sales...
The problem was that as the site grew, there was really noway for you to generate profits from it directly.
Now there is...
But it's a whole lot more too...
Viral List Building Free Training Built In Income Streams Focused on helping you sell your primary program Direct commissions, passive overrides and monthly continuity...
And you can belong for free.
And as a free member you still generate profits... (yeah that's a cool unique thing we built in...)
Why be a paid member after launch? Simple...
More money. More passive... 300% more. That's for leaders who take this stuff serious and see value in what they've got at their fingertips...
But we're not pitching it... we're letting you come in, free...And make that decision yourself.
Either way...
You get trained.You learn the business.You generate profits. Opt in here and you get to review the full Recorded Webinar today... and you get to download a pretty important piece of information to help you in your success if you want to stay on the cutting edge...
Published by Harvard Business Review: Blue Ocean Strategy
It's where this whole idea came from... get it free here:
SocialProfitStreams
I highly recommend it.
You'll also see a special Founding Affiliate's offer for leaders to review and consider...
See you at launch... only a couple weeks away...

P.S. I'll continue to market as I always do - aggressively because it's my passion. I love connecting with others. Usually this only helps me. Usually if 'admin' markets it means they're competing with you... conflict?
Nope - we thought about that too...
As I market and send people to the site in a variety of ways.. All that traffic spins through a rotator and 100% of it goes to our members... 100%
See ya at the site... this is going to be fun.

Don’t try everything at once
The amount of time it would take to maintain all those accounts would suck any and all time away from running your business. Plus, by trying to juggle profiles and build networks on too many sites at once, you’d do an ineffective job of marketing.
Start slowly. Maybe even start by surveying your current customers to see which social media site most of them use. Once you dip your toe in and get a feel for how a particular site functions, how its users behave and the kind of content/conversations they respond to, you’ll have a better idea of how that site fits with your message. And once you know that, you’ll know if that is a site to keep and nurture or one to scrap. You can ramp up from there.
If you run a political blog or website, for instance, you may find that Reddit members respond to your content better than Digg members.
Or, if you’re a photographer, you may think it’s a no-brainer to open a Flickr account, only to find that you can get more inquiries from users of Google’s Picasa.
Then there’s Twitter. What can I say about Twitter? I haven’t figured out a good use for it. Dell certainly did. They managed to turn Twitter into a million-dollar sales channel for their computers by using it to alert users of new sales and discounts.
But that’s the beauty of social media. There is no right or wrong way to use it. It’s like every other marketing channel. You have to test to find out what works best for your business.

What is desktop marketing?

Small-business owners may be experts at delivering their particular product or service. But 90% of them lack the ONE skill that will put them over the top: HOW TO MARKET.
Most medium- to large-sized companies have their own marketing and design departments or have service providers in place. But smaller local businesses … the ones right in your back yard … typically don’t have those services readily available to them. They'll have little or no idea of where to find them. And they certainly won’t have a coherent marketing plan.
On top of that, many of these small businesses can’t afford the high prices of typical advertising or marketing agencies. They may try to handle their own marketing in house, only to discover they’re spending far too much time on activities that can be easily outsourced, rather than where they should be spending time – on growing their business.
They need to find a middle ground. They need help from someone who is knowledgeable in many areas and more affordable than hiring an individual for each task.

Squidoo - Content Syndication
You use it like merging and Article Directory and a Blog together, but it also allows you to post pictures, videos, links and links pointing to other relevent content regarding your topic (you can backlink to your articles, press releases or blog posts to boos THEIR search engine exposure).
Squidoo - Created by internet marketing genius, is a powerful tool for publishing content that can rise in the search engines over time if you back it up with a good strategy of back linking from other relevent sites online such as:
EzineArticles.com bio box.Blog Post BacklinksPurchased Backlinks (more on this later)
Step One is to create a compelling article, review or documentary about your chosen keyword phrase (Social Profit Streams, Home Seller Assist, or even a specific home business company of choice).
If your content is spammy, exagerated, or otherwise - unattractive… then NOTHING else matters.
So give some thought… collect some articles or other videos, articles, web content from your sales page… and really review it…
And create content on Squidoo that is relevent and informative.
Search other Squidoo lenses with similar keywords and search other articles to get a sense of other content already out there… use it to help your own writing or creativity…
Ok - you have your content up and this is your “TRAFFIC BAIT” piece. You can always add to it, which is POWERFUL in Squidoo… as you can add videos, links and more article content and expand your lens. More content, more keyword focus… more fresh relevent information for the search engines to find on you.
But now we’ll work on some backlinking, and syndication.
Next go to Pingomatic.com and submit your Squidoo link there so it can be “pinged” and other search engines will know you’ve posted new content.
Same thing on DIGG.com
Same thing on Stumbleupon.com
You need relevant back links to your content so that you can rank higher on the search engines with your content.
This is, again, NOT a full training on this but I’ll give you some quick you can implement to organize your content marketing a bit more…
This is where a personal blog comes in handy… even one on www.Blogger.com (free).
Every article you ever write for any platform should be posted on your own blog.
In this example your “Traffic Bait” piece is your Squidoo Lens created on a focused keyword phrase that you choose.
We are now going to use similar content focused on the same keywords to build a NETWORK of content published on high ranking and relevent sites… and we are going to position “BACK LINKS” on this content, pointing back to your Squidoo Lens…
This is what that means:
Take the same info you wrote about on Squidoo and tweak it up a bit… make it a bit different and unique…
Then post it here:
EzineArticle.com - ArticleYOUR BLOG - Blog PostGoArticle.com - Article Directory
You can post numerous short pieces of content on these places on similar or related topics and always place a back link to your original Squidoo Lens (your main Traffic Bait piece).
The goal is this:
All things considered equal…
He/She with the most relevent backlinks wins. The more backlinks you get compared with your competition to the same keyword… the higher you’ll climb in google.
Now just for some who may not know what a backlink is… it looks like this:
“… so having attended the webinar coaching session the other night and being intrigued about the concept of WEB3.0 - Social Profit Streams, I decided to become involved and start sharing the information and increase awareness about this professional group. I’ve documented my findings and research on this and have posted details about Social Profit Streams here…”
[See it's simple. You write your main keyword phrase that you're trying to rank for and just link it to whatever site you are working on getting ranked in the search engines. I linked to the actual lead capture page, but in our training today, you'd link that keyword phrase to your Squidoo lens on that keyword phrase... pretty simple!]
IT TAKES TIME. You can’t post too many back links too fast when you’re building up new, fresh content. You have to discipline yourself the first couple weeks to only about 2-3 backlinks per day tops.
Later - as your content is more “seasoned” and not so new… you can add more links per day and to google, this will appear more “organic” or natural… and you’ll climb to the top of google faster than your competion…
SO the point for today was… many people were asking about Blog and Squidoo “training” and here it is… it would be intelligent to start to position your “Traffic Bait” pieces on Squidoo, Blog, Ezines etc…
But choose only your BEST as the “Traffic Bait” piece…
And then use OTHER content which could be shorter pieces… in the other platforms to help you start building a LONG TERM PRESENCE and EXPOSURE on the free side of the listings so that you’ll generate consistent, daily traffic to your content which will of course be directed to your lead capture page… which is the whole idea.
But for now, let’s keep it simple… Go search for some related Squidoo lenses to get an idea of what they look like… create your own free account and build your first lens!
Enjoy and stay consistent ....

Wall Street Journal Validates Web 3.0 - Social Profit Streams
I came across this article…FASCINATING and extremely VALIDATING! It’s an absolute MUST READ. Here is a snippet of the article if you don’t have time to read the entire thing:
"But companies with millions of members of online communities are now asking: What next? How do we sell them products and services, or mobilize them into massive de facto R&D, manufacturing and sales departments? We have been studying the challenge and have concluded that very few of the traditional techniques of classical marketing (call them Marketing 1.0), or even of eCommerce (Marketing 2.0) will work in the world of social networks. A very different set of tools, concepts and practices is needed. Call it Marketing 3.0"
Ok, so they call it “Marketing 3.0 vs Web 3.0″, but it’s the same message. It is the vision of a NEW ECONOMY…a NEW WAY OF DOING BUSINES - the “Home Based Business” moniker will be a thing of the past as it soon becomes known to be “Social Profit Streams”!
Be on the lookout for more about “Social Profit Streams” in the Wall Street Journal and other places soon! Folks, my belief is GO BIG or GO HOME…we are GOING BIG with this…right time, right place and right strategy with a long term vision that is truly revolutionary in its ability to actually deliver in a PROFESSIONAL, SIMPLE, SAFE and VIRAL way!

Follower Marketing
We will explain in more detail on our launch what “Follower Marketing” is, how it’s been used by the early adopters, and how YOU will be able to benefit in ways you can’t even begin to imagine 12 to 24 months from now!
Until then…read this:
There will soon come a day when people will no longer be compensated only according to what their learned trade typically pays (e.g., accountant, programmer, interior designer, etc.), but rather based on their league of FOLLOWERS (”Follower Marketing”) that they command. This league of followers is a SALES DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL that only a few in our arena have figured out has value. The Home Based Business industry (e.g., Network Marketing, Direct Sales, MLM, etc.) has already understood and embraced this in years past. It’s only a matter of time before main street corporate America also realizes that they can go directly to the sales distribution channel known as “YOU”…it’s your role to be prepared for this inevitability - advertising dollars, products and services will soon be delivered to and by YOU…that’s Web 3.0 | Social Profit Streams via a method we are calling, Follower Marketing…get on the bus and find a seat (or better yet, get on the jet plane to success and buckle up! This is going to be a fun fun ride! ~ Bob DeCecco
The marketplace is moving FAST…be prepared…opportunity will be presenting itself to you…
There is a NEW WAY of DOING BUSINESS coming!
This is a big vision with big implications, and YOU are on the BLEEDING EDGE :) Glad to have you along for the ride!

Paid Advertising resources
I’ve used this type of traffic for YEARS to build my lists. YES I use blogging, articles and social networking/videos to drive free traffic - but that can take some time and I mainly use it for relationship building and getting my name “out
there”…
But in the beginning before all that stuff was getting any traction I would invest in my business and fill my pipeline with traffic from these two sources (as I learned to get better with ezines, ppc etc…)

A good way to find adcopy for more ads that work is to search google and yahoo for specific network marketing company names
and see which ads are on page one and two.
You can get great ideas for your own ads by researching which ads are already being used and just modify them a bit.

Ezine Solo Ads and Lists

We’re revolutionizing the concept of the
“Lead Capture Page” - it will NEVER be the same again…
But we’re not jumping up and down about it now
for COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE reasons…
Suffice to say that our “Lead Capture Page” is
very different in what it does...
So today… I’d like to introduce another form of
attracting people with curiosity…
You should be growing your Facebook network and
Twitter followers daily and starting to post some nice
content to get people used to receiving info from you…
If you have a list, you should be broadcasting invites
to them so they can opt in and even add little simple
tag lines at the end of your current follow up series’
in all lists… like this in a P.S. section:
“P.S. Oh btw ‘Joe’ - have you heard about Web 3.0?
It’s gaining some viral buzz right now all over the place.
It’s all about “Social Profit Streams” and there is a new
training and viral network building resource coming out
that is teaching it. You can learn more about it here…
http://www.yoursocialprofits.com
Pretty interesting stuff!”
See… this stuff is simple…
Ok, now to generate some traffic… It’s called Ezine Marketing.
Some people call it Email Marketing with SOLO Ads…
I’ve been doing this for years to build my lists by offering
something compelling: Free Training, Newsletter, Video
Tutorials etc… just something that a target market will opt
in to check out without feeling pressured about being
pitched on another opportunity or program…
Sample:
Subj: Finally, Get $ Rewarded For Attending Training!
