Program Review: List Quik offers unique advertising

The ability to email to a random list of members of a program is one of the quickest ways to get visitors to your website.

List Quik offers that capability with a twist ... you can earn cash just by reading List Quik emails!

What I like best about the ListQuik system is that it works for free members too. So many systems out there are really only effective if you are a paid member but not with ListQuik. As a free member, you can email a random list of ListQuik members and because of the credit system, you will see a higher click through rate.

You can earn Cash ($2 to $20) and Credits to send emails (2 to 20 credits).

Depending on what you are promoting, you will see good response from ListQuik members. They respond very positively to our Earth Friendly Biz website at http://www.earthfriendlybiz.com

You will notice my ad examples include an ad for EFB, you can edit the examples to promote whatever program you are actively promoting online or join our Earth Friendly Biz system and follow our simple steps.

List Quik is one of my top recommendations for online advertising and 'funded' list building. This is one program that we are confident will be here to benefit you and your business for a long time. You will be impressed with the professional management of ListQuik under co-ownership of Clinton Clark.

As a top recommendation, List Quik is included in our training and our downline builder at Earth Friendly Biz.

Be sure to check out their live conferences that are always open to everyone!

Below you will find simple instructions to register for and use ListQuik.

List Quik now boasts an active membership of over 6500 members and they are the perfect target for your website.

Step 1. Register for List Quick

Your first step is to get registered here:

Step 2. Setup a folder for your List Quik emails

Setup a folder in your email program so that you can sort your List Quik emails for easy reference. Your credit emails will come from: ListQUIK-member-messages . You can use this information to setup a message rule or to easily sort and move the List Quik credit emails.

Once all your List Quik emails are in one folder, it will be simple to open and earn credits and CASH.

Step 3. Login and setup your profile

Now that you are registered (and upgraded), you want to login to your List Quik members area to send your first ad.

Once you choose your payment method, you want to enter your messenger ID's etc., that are located at the bottom. This information is listed on your List Quik website and offers your visitors a simple way to contact you.

When you are finished updating your personal details, click Update to update your details.

Step 4. Send your first message

As a new member, you can send your first message immediately. As a free member, you will email 100 random members and as an upgraded member, you can email 1000 to 1250, depending on your membership level. Also, as you grow your downline in List Quik and earn credits for reading emails, you can send to a larger sampling of members.

Here is an ad for you to send if you are using the Earth Friendly Biz system. If you are using another system, you will want to use a recommended ad from your system or write your own. It's a great place to work on your creativity ;-)

EFB Ad:

SUBJECT: #firstname#, did you hear what Frank said?

BODY:

Hello #firstname#,

Your NAME here with a quick question.

I am an active member of the 3-step prospecting
system created by Janet Legere, called Earth
Friendly Biz.

Did you join this program yet?

This system is simple to follow and easy to understand
because Janet took the time to put together step by step
directions.

Here is what a few of our members are saying:

Frank posted:

"I have not been in EFB to long myself, however I am having
better results from this one program than I have in the
last 2 years working my other programs individually. I
have wanted to be involved in a program with Janet Legere
for years and now I finally am in her EFB."

Bruce wrote in:

” I have only had it set up in the last 24 hours and was
amazed when I received the new lead notification emails ”

At Earth Friendly Biz, our goal is to help you and your
downline learn to develop paying prospects for YOUR
primary busness.

We help you and your group grow your business while we
teach you simple list building strategies that stand
the test of time.

If what you are doing isn't working ...
If you have downline who are confused and lost ...
If you want you and your team to get results ...

Then take 5 minutes and join our simple system:
http://www.earthfriendlybiz.com/USERNAME

You and your team will be glad you did ;-)

Let me know if you have questions, I am happy to
help any way that I can.

Happy Marketing,

Your NAME
List Building Expert

NOTE 1: Replace Your NAME with your first and last name and replace "USERNAME" with your EFB user id.

NOTE 2: Your ad in List Quik is setup in html format and you MUST remember to "hyperlink" your EFB website so that readers will see a clickable link. While this is not critical it is a good habit to get into. To "hyperlink" your website, highlight the url with your mouse and then click the "link" icon on the format bar. It looks just like a chain link ... you will see a complete link and a broken link ... the broken link is designed to remove a hyperlink.

Step 5. Earn Credits and Cash

You are now ready to get into a routine of reading ListQuik emails to earn Cash and mailing Credits. You will spend 15 to 30 minutes a day opening emails to earn credits. Make this part of your daily routine and schedule in to send your email ad to the list once every 5 days.

REMINDER: Upgrading in List Quik is a one time fee of $129 and is well worth the cost. These members are highly active and the offering of cash causes members to read emails. You WILL see new signups in your EFB system using ListQuik.

Happy Marketing!

Program Review: Viral Networks Offers Web 2.0 for Internet Marketers

There have been a lot of new programs hit the Internet in the last month or two and it can be quite difficult to decide what's good and what isn't.

One of my online business partners, Colin Klinkert recently released a new Social Network for Internet Marketers called Viral Networks.

Viral Networks is a well thought out system that takes advantage of Web 2.0 Technology to offer Internet Marketers a place to 'network', a place to advertise and a place to make money.

And the best part of Viral Networks, at least for me, is the list building aspect. As an upgraded member, you can email 3000 random members every 3 days. Consider who you are emailing here .... other network marketers!

Here is a highlight of some of the main features of Viral Networks:

As a member of Viral Networks, you can:
  • network with other contacts in the same industry as you (this is VITAL for success).
  • build a Hyper Viral message board list through the addition of their awesome list builder.
  • build a downline down 5 levels and contact them via messageboard.
  • be rewarded with 10% of the credits earned from everyone in your downline!
  • earn in the revenue sharing pool based on credits earned
Bottom line, just from being an active user, ViralNetworks will share their revenue with you!

Steps to get started at Viral Networks:

1. Join Viral Networks: http://viralnetworks.com/a/36
If at all possible, upgrade in Viral Networks.

2. Setup your Profile: Login to Viral Networks. Click on the Dashboard link then access My Profile.

It's important the you setup your profile completely and be certain to upload a photo. You cannot expect to network with other Networkers if you don't have a picture of yourself in your profile. Success in networking online is all about becoming a real person online.

3. Create a Group: Create a group regarding a topic of interest to you. If you are focused on marketind Earth Friendly Biz, then you could create a group about Prospecting with Systems, or Following a proven system. Creating a group will attract people to find you and earn you credits in the system.

4. Connect with other members: Now that your profile is setup, you are ready to connect with other Viral Networkers. Click on the Community tab, visit the profiles of other members and begin connecting. Add people of interest to your list in Viral Networks.

5. Visit the Forum and start posting: The best wsay to connect with others is to become involved. Visit the Forum and find posts of interest to you and participate.

6. Tell others about Viral Networks: Use the Viral Networks Promotion system. They truly make it easy for you to share Viral Networks with others by offering your simple tools and resources to advertise your website. From your Dashboard, select the Promotion Tools section. You will find different sections that offer several different ways to advertise your site. You will also find helpful training videos showing you how to use the services.

Spend some time going through the system, it will be worth your time to undestand how Viral Networks works so that you can take best advantage of the system.

You are going to be invited by other members to join their list and to network with them. This is a very active community and the more active you are the more credits you will earn and the more people you will connect with.

It's in connecting with those people that you will find business leaders for your business.

Remember, networking is all about relationships. Spend some time getting to know some people.

Enjoy Viral Networks ... it gets our "Seal of Approval" for recommended list building resources.

If you are using Viral Networks , leave a comment and let us know how it's working for you or share your strategies on how you are using the system.

Until next time ... have a great day!

Product Review: Message Magic Makes Relationship Marketing Simple

Wow, we are well into 2009 already and as I expected, the year is starting out with huge momentum.

I noticed a lot of new advertising and traffic programs coming out and after careful consideration, I decided to begin writing reviews on my top pics.

Here is a short list of programs that I will begin reviewing (not necessarily in this order) over the coming weeks:

Message Magic
ViralNetworks
MyViralSurfer
ViralNugget
TopTierTraffic
OrangeLeads
ScreenSwarm
WebBizInsider
ViralUrl
FreeTrafficBar
ListJoe
TheListAuction
AdlandPro
ListJumper
TrafficSwarm
Rent-a-List
AdvertisingKnowHow
MyEasySubmitting
EliteMarketing
GlobalDomainsInternational
TrafficOasis

My first review is on Message Magic, an add-on program for Skype users.

This unique program allows you to plug in and connect with all Skype users.

WARNING: It is important that you follow the guidelines with Message Magic. The last thing you need is to receive complaints from Skype users. When used the right way, Message Magic can be an extraordinary tool to connect you with the right people for your business.

When I first came across Message Magic, I will admit that I did not see the potential with this program. It was simply a matter of giving it the time it needed to understand how it works. Like any program, you must understand how it works in order to use it effectively.

What is Message Magic?

Message Magic is a program that you download to your computer. When you run this program, you are able to look for skype users based an many different criteria. There is a fantastic manual in the members area that shows you exactly how to use Message Magic.

You can join Message Magic and try it for free for 7 days.

It's really very simple. You can select Skype users based on key words and then send a message to the users that the system locates. You can choose to only send a message to those Skype users who are online or to all that are found.

The Message Magic training is very thorough and they take the simple permission based approach that is commonly used online. The same approach I have been teaching for over 9 years.

When you do your search and the system lists the Skype users for you to contact, it is recommended that you send an "invitation" type email.

Example:

Hello (name),

My name is Janet Legere and I am see
that you are user of Skype and interested
in Networking.

I am looking to connect with other Networkers
who are interested in going green and taking
advantage of this trend to make money.

I invite you to add me to your Skype contact
list and look forward to connecting soon.

Have a great day,

Janet Legere
List Building Expert

I found the advanced training guide in the members area to be very helpful and to be honest ... you don't need to be an advanced user to understand it and use it.

My Skype contact list has grown to over 1500 members in a very short time. I am connected to many industry leaders as well as many very ordinary people just like you and me.

If you are looking to network with more people so that you can find the right people, then message magic is a program you want to use.

It is going to be a must have tool for 2009 ... and it will be a must have in my marketing portfolio!

You want to master the use of Message Magic today!

Sign up and download it right now ... click here

In my next post, we will talk about ViralNetworks .. a different take on Social Networking.

Until then, have a great day.

Weekend Online Advertising Ideas

Do you take advantage of the weekends to advertise online? Are you using resources that work and following a plan that works?

I believe there is a lot of confusion online as to how to make money. Seriously, if it was so cut and dried wouldn't everyone be making money?

Are you making money? If you aren't making money yet, then you need to pay close attention to this post and follow it to a tee ... then, like my life coach, Devlyn Steele says "Lather, Rinse, Repeat". Do it again and again and again ... the secret to making money online is following a proven system.

So it got me thinking about my post for today. I'm going to share a plan with you that works ... it works for anyone and everyone who follows it.

Here's the plan ...

Step 1. Pick a prospecting system that is effective. There are many out there and many that are very top notch. Likely, your primary business offers a "lead capture" system and this is all you need to follow this plan. Our prospecting system of choice is Earth Friendly Biz where we teach a simple plan of action to drive traffic to your website and develop prospects for your business.

Earth Friendly Biz is a generic system that works for any business, any product, any service ... it is simple to follow and easy to understand and it's free. There is an upgrade available that offers a full auto-responder service complete with preset automated messages.

Signup for your account here: http://www.earthfriendlybiz.com

Average time to complete: 30 to 45 minutes

Step 2. Advertise your lead capture link. Picking a prospecting system is going to be a lot simpler than advertising your new link. Not that advertising is hard, there is just a lot of ways to advertise, more than we can comfortably discuss in one session.

For this weekend exercise, I am going to share a few of my very top picks for advertising resources. There are resources that I know will bring a lot of traffic to your system. If you use my Earth Friendly Biz site, your results are guaranteed. I say that in all confidence because my EFB members are duplicating my steps and duplicating my results.

WARNING: before proceeding with the following resources, please setup a special email address for these programs. Most of the resources that I will be recommending are "credit based" and you will be receiving several emails from each system every day. Free members of these resources earn credits for reading the emails. When they earn enough credits they can send an email to the list. These resources are highly effective in generating traffic to your website but only when you use them consistently. I recommend setting up a gmail account strictly for these resources. http://www.gmail.com

In my experience, the following are must have resources. If you are not using these resources, please join just one at a time, get it setup to send your ad and then move on to join another program.

Below, I am going to give you information about a few resources as well as how to get them setup and working properly. The key to all this is focusing just on using the resources. One must be cautious that one does not spend all ones time clicking links inside new programs. It's easy to do and likely everyone reading this is guilty of clicking links to other programs.

It's how people get lost and confused online.

My goal is to give you a process that you can follow that will get you setup and seeing results as quickly as possible. It is well worth your time to learn all this, what you learn today will be with you forever and become part of everything you do online.

Here is what we will cover in this exercise
  • Signing up for and setting up MyViralSurfer
  • Signing up for and setting up advertising resources
  • Advertising your EarthFriendlyBiz Website
  • Following up with new prospects and new members
Ok, let's get started with this process shall we.

If you want to grab a fresh cup of coffee or your favourite beverage, now would be a good time. Then come back and settle in to complete the following tasks beginning with Step 2, setting up MyViralSurfer.

Step 2a. MyViralSurfer - link tracker, list builder, viral marketer .... a very unique, must-have resource. Even as as free member, this system works great, however, this is one resource whose power increases as an upgraded member. Grab the one time offer ... you will be forever grateful that you did. For complete instructions on how to setup and use MyViralSurfer, visit my Blog Post here.

It is worth your time to take the time to setup and become familiar with MyViralSurfer. This resource will be used extensively throughout your daily marketing.

Average time to complete: 30 to 60 minutes

Ok, now we are going to move on to Step 3. where we will setup and use a few select advertising resources that I highly recommend every online marketer use.

We are going to setup and use the following Credit Based lists which work well for free and upgraded members alike. As with all the programs I use and recommend, I encourage you to take the upgrades whenever possible. As an upgraded member, your ads have a higher likelihood of being seen by other list members.

Before we begin with the setup, here is an ad that you can use with the resources we'll be joining. This ad is directed to EarthFriendlyBiz.

SUBJECT: Click here to collect 10,000 Free Ad Credits ...

BODY:

Hello!

Do you have a minute? I have a quick question.

Are you using EarthFriendlyBiz?

Earth Friendly Biz is our 'grass roots',
100% generic, prospecting system.

It's free, it's simple and it works.

If you aren't already using EFB, sign
up here and see how simple this is:

http://nothingcomparesto.com/sykaro/EFB1

Become a member today and you will
receive 10,000 Ad Credits at Free
Traffic Bar, absolutely free!

Have a great day!

Your First and Last Name

P.S. Will EFB help you make money?
Absolutely! Get started for free here:
http://nothingcomparesto.com/sykaro/EFB1

NOTES: You will replace http://nothingcomparesto.com/sykaro/EFB1 with your EFB affiliate link or your MyViralSurfer tracking link which you learned to do in Step 2 above.

Ok, now let's get started on the fun part ... advertising resources. The three programs below are all credit based programs and have all proven to be highly effective at getting visitors to your website.

ListJoe - this is, by far, one of the most dependable resources available online. Jonah's focus is making sure ListJoe stays that way. As an upgraded member, you can email 3000 random members every 3 days. This is a credit based mailer so free members earn credits for reading your emails and clicking your links and then spend those credits to send their emails .

Join List Joe here then follow the simple steps outlined on the main page when you login. Depending on your membership level, you will send the ad above to a random list of ListJoe members as often as your membership level permits. A Gold or Lifetime member can send email to 3000 random members of ListJoe every 3 days - that's a lot of traffic to your site.

Once setup with ListJoe, send the ad listed above.

Average Setup time: 30 to 45 minutes

List Auction
- another very reliable and highly effective list, List Auction is also a credit based list. When I send to this list, I always get a surge of signups. They are quite an active group of readers, much like ListJoe.

Join List Auction here then login to your account and edit your profile. You can choose how many emails you receive each day. Just like ListJoe, you can send an email to the list based on the amount of credits you have earned and based on your membership level.

Once setup with List Auction, send the ad listed above.

Average time to complete: 30 to 45 minutes

AdTactics - this credit based safelist has been around quite some time and is a nice clean active list. It is much smaller than ListJoe and ListAuction but no less effective.

Join AdTactics here then login to your account and setup your email to send. This list is a bit different than the others and a great place to advertise.

Once setup with AdTactics, send the ad listed above.

Average time to complete: 30 to 45 minutes

NOTE:
Once you have these three accounts setup, the time to send an ad will be cut down to about 5 minutes for each resource.

Total Setup time from 1.5 to 4.0 hours

Average time to click emails and earn credits: 30 minutes to 2 hours

Remember, you are going to use the ad above to send to each of these lists. If you upgrade in any of the resources, you will be able to send to the list immediately.

These are just three of many really great resources and a good place to start. Once you master using these three you will be ready to move on an add more resources.

The key here is to be consistent in your advertising. If you are allowed to email every 3 days, then make sure you are sending our your ads every three days. Remember, the members you are advertising to are random each time you send an email which means that someone new is seeing your ad each time you send it.

Step 5. Following up

If you are an upgraded member in Earth Friendly Biz with a Home Office Pro account, then your new prospects and new members are receiving our automated messages. If you are a free member, then you need to follow-up personally and make contact with your new prospects. We cover this in depth in our step by step training offered to all of our Earth Friendly Biz members.

My Challenge to You!

My challenge to you is to advertise your EarthFriendlyBiz link to as many resources as you can. If you are an active user of Traffic Exchanges, then make sure your EarthFriendlyBiz link is setup as the link that receives traffic.

The more visitors you get to your website the more prospects you will create. The more prospects you create the more members will join. The more members who join, the more money you will make ... it is really that simple.

Come back after you post your ads and let us know what kind of results you received.

Happy Marketing!
