Jul 7, The Second Question to Ask before You Start a Network Marketing Business

Wed, 07 Jul 2010 23:14:57 GMT

In the last blog post, we talked about What Do You Do? The second question you need to ask yourself before you start a business is - Who Are You Doing It For? When considering this question, try to visualize an image of your customer. You'll want to ask yourself in what income level are they living. What problem are they trying to solve? How serious is that problem for them? Will they pay money for you to help them solve that problem? There's a lot more to consider when looking at your target market but this is a good place to start. You can find more information about how to narrow your target market by clicking the link to your left called Target Ur Market. Remember, not everybody will be interested in your business so is very important to narrow your focus down to those who are more inclined to listen to you. Here's to making it happen, Mark A.

Jul 7, Eight Questions to Ask Before You Start a Network Marketing Business

Wed, 07 Jul 2010 05:41:20 GMT

Are you thinking of starting a home business or network marketing business? Before you start, it would be wise to ask the following questions. The advantage of this Q&A is that you will be able to quickly see if the idea you're considering to throw everything into is likely to work. What Will You Be Doing in This Network Marketing Business? You will need to define what products or services the present business provides. Many new network marketers make the mistake of trying to be all things to all people. You may have wide range of skills in business, but you do not want to spread yourself too thin by trying to do everything. This often leads to failure. Focus your efforts on what will make you money. In network marketing, that is simple. You'll need to sell your product or service. You have a couple of choices. One is selling offline and the other is selling online. You will need to sell your opportunity. As simple as that sounds, many people are ill-equipped because they do not have the knowledge and haven't taken the time to learn the necessary skills. Tomorrow we will cover the next question to consider before starting your business. Mark A Sinclair http://markasinclair.net

Jul 3, Square Wheel Marketing vs Round Wheel Marketing

Sat, 03 Jul 2010 20:21:02 GMT

It's Not about the Features Silly. It's about the Benefits Just because a cell phone has video features does not mean that somebody is going to use it. The simple truth is people are looking for something that is easy to use without jumping through a lot of hoops. They do not want to spend hours on the phone with a tech support person just to get things up and running. We live in a plug-and-play society. Easy is better. That is where the Apple IPhone 4 has hit a homerun. The Iphone 4 has a video feature that is easy to use. All you have to do is hit one button in the middle of a call and the video feature works. Round wheel. With the Android phone, you have to sign up and download a third-party application and then launch it every time you want to talk. Square wheel. Most people will not do that. They would rather push one button and have it work than jump through hoops. Learning the difference between a feature and a benefit is crucial. The developers of the Apple IPhone understand that . The Android developers are more concerned with the feature. A feature is just something that your product has. It could be the color of the products. It could be the design of the product. A benefit is what the product does for you and what problem it solves for you. It could be how easy it is to use, how much time it saves you, the ability to connect with others easily or what a thorough job that it does. Once a customer has determined the benefit of a product they will then look at the features to make their buying decision. So many people in network marketing are focused on features of the opportunity or the product and not the benefits that the customer is seeking. Until you can make a switch in your perspective, you will continue to struggle and be frustrated. WHat is your perspective? Square wheel or round wheel marketing?

Jun 24, Don't Let Your Age Get In The Way

Thu, 24 Jun 2010 00:02:44 GMT

I tweeted this today and it gave me pause to think. RT @ProBlogger Does A Bloggers Age Matter?http://bit.ly/aI0FOt I agree with his perspective of branding Urself around your age! Does your age become a barrier to your online business? Yes, most bloggers are in their 30s or younger but that does not mean you have to throw up your arms and give up. You just need to reposition yourself. People in their 50s or older have a lot to contribute. And those with any sense know that with age comes experience. Recently, Dirty Wally asked me to help him with a book about his life. He is 90 years old and is a professional gambler. He has received 5 marriage proposals this month and he is also a professional actor. Wally is quite a character and has developed a skill that few possess. The ability to read people. Now, who could benefit from learning that skill? I know a few network marketers, home based businesses and small businesses that could learn a thing or two from him. Don't let your age get in your way. Reposition yourself. You have a lot to offer.

Sun, 23 May 2010 21:00:07 GMT

Are You Enjoying The Journey? When I was in college my goal was to be a millionaire by the time I was 25. It was a shallow goal because I didnt even know what I would do with millions of dollars if I had it. I knew I could have bought a huge house or traveled to exotic places around the world. Would doing those things give me satisfaction? Now that I am in my 50s I look back and I am grateful that I did not meet my first goal at 25. Read more

Apr 22, FaceBook Changes Fan Pages To Like It Pages

Thu, 22 Apr 2010 17:25:26 GMT

Some like it and some dont! But it is something you are going to have to get used to. Just a couple of days ago Facebook updated its Fan Pages and changed - the become a fan button - to a- LIKE IT button. You may be thinking, how does this affect me? Well, if you have articles, videos or web pages about Facebook fan pages, this might affect you. One thing you may want to do is include the new keyword Facebook like it page so that in the future Google will recognize it and direct people to your information. You will also want to keep that in mind when recommending people to become your fan. There is no place on your former fan page that has a Become A Fan button instead it has been replace with a Like It Button. If a person clicks the Like It Button, you can still stay in touch with them through updates, notes and all of your other postings. So, when viewing our tutorials on Facebook fan pages, think of them as Facebook Like It pages now. Let your light shine.

Apr 20, Deceptive Methods Of Some Home Based Businesses EXPOSED

Tue, 20 Apr 2010 18:47:30 GMT

Why is this important now? With the economy in the toilet, people are primed for exploitation. Lets raise a few caution flags and share them with everyone. It has been said that the network marketing industry will spin out the bad apples and most companies will not tolerate shady representatives. BUT in the mean time, some will get away with exploiting the fears and dreams of those who are desperately seeking a financial solution. That is where the damage is done. Right now in Florida there is a group of people traveling around in a party bus holding meetings and signing up a lot of people. They then move on and leave a lot of people to fend for themselves. This is what motivated this blog post. To read more click below.

Mar 25, Who Needs A Coach? Just Ask Tiger Woods

Thu, 25 Mar 2010 23:02:12 GMT

When it comes to online marketing, there is so much information that it seems like heaven. It is like a kid in a toy store. You may enter in looking at all of the possibilities and be paralyzed by all of the choices. I am now a grandfather and former preschool teacher and I found that if you give little ones too many choices the end result is information overload, paralysis and frustration. In many cases this will result in a total melt down on your part or your childs. Last month I focused on helping you set up your first newsletter. I hope that you found connecting with your business partners and customers encouraging. I know from experience that coming up with ideas and information can be a challenge. I have found that if you are doing all of the work by yourself it is ten times harder. If you have a community of people to support you and help you focus on the path you have chosen, you will find it much easier and satisfying. Read more by clicking the link below...

Mar 5, Short Videos vs Long Videos

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 00:42:39 GMT

Short videos can have a great impact. Have you ever wondered why anyone would spend millions on Super Bowl ads? Because, they get results! Although your videos may not be seen on the scale of Super Bowl ads, they will be seen and have the results you have planned for them. The video below was designed to give people a glimpse of my life and was made with Animoto. I like Animoto because it is fairly easy to use and produces great videos. Try it out. They have a free version. These short videos are great for landing pages, emails, blogs, social sites, uploading to Youube and websites. They can be used for many purposes like product reviews, sharing About Me information etc... Learn more about short videos by viewing the one I uploaded to YouTube and then go to Animoto.com to make your own. Have fun. Mark Sinclair

Feb 22, Helping Others Succeed Adds To Your Success

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 22:57:56 GMT

What was the saying made popular in the Robin Hood Story? Rob from the Rich and give to the poor. That was Robin Hood's life mission. His fight was against social injustice in England and my fight is against similar injustice in the business world. Thousands have lost their jobs in the last year with more to follow. Many are over 50 and though our country has anti discrimination laws, ask them how easy it is to land that job when you are competing with people half your age. I hear it all the time. Do you have a plan B? If you are considering starting a business from home, do you have the skills that this century expects? That is exactly why these tutorials are being offered. Social media used to be the newspaper. I still remember my dad getting the paper before work and glancing at his favorite sections before going to work. Today, newspapers are on their way out along with their advertising. Business is changing in the same way. I used to pay for Yellow page ads that cost over 3000 dollars a year. Now I use social media that gets 10 times the results for a tenth of the cost. Kids these days are using cell phones as mini type writers. The Red Cross has found that by telling the younger generation to text a certain code they can contribute to disaster relief. As a result they are able to collect more donations. With the IPhone and Droid Phones kids have instant access to the internet from anywhere at any time. Small business has to keep pace or someone else will. That is why we are offering these tutorials. We are featuring FaceBook, Twitter, Tweetdeck, Squidoo and newsletter tutorials with more to come. Here is to your success, Robin Hood paraphrase - take the knowledge that others have and give it to those who don't have. View the tutorials by clicking the link below or the Tutorial section on the left. Mark Sinclair

Feb 10, Start Your Own Newsletter Today

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 01:29:37 GMT

Who needs a newsletter? If you are in business and have customers, you need a way to follow up with your customers. Like the old saying, out of sight, out of mind. Believe me you want your customers to remember who you are. It makes follow up sales so much easier. I recently saw that 85 percent of network marketing and home based business customers are not receiving any follow up call, visits, mail or emails. A simple newsletter would make that so much simpler. No body wants to lick stamps and address envelopes for 1000's of people. But a simple newsletter program can save you a ton of time, increase sales and keep you in the minds of your customers with just one click of your mouse. With a newsletter program you can do several things. I will spotlight a few. 1. You can send a letter to all of your contact with just 1 click. 2. You can track who is opening your letters up. this is invaluable when making follow up calls. 3. You can add pictures and graphics to display your products. 4. You can provide links to your site, blog, videos or information page in the internet. I have provided a video on our 30/30 page that goes into greater detail about what a newsletter can do for you. Just go to the bottom left and click on the 30/30 button and it will be the 10th video. or click the link below to see the newsletter video. Here is to your success, Mark Sinclair 909-260-3724 Skype: markasinclair

Jan 22, Network Marketing Leads

Fri, 22 Jan 2010 22:06:48 GMT

There are many questions coming into us about how to generate network marketing leads or where to find leads. It is so true that it does not take long to exhaust your leads list and when this happens people turn to the internet to find help. When you search Google or Bing, there are so many choices and so much hype to wade through that it will make your head spin. There are a few choices to consider that are being taught by network marketing companies:
1. Flip through the yellow pages and start cold calling.
2. Start cold calling people every where.
3. The Do Me A Favor and show up for my meeting model.
In all of these models and more that have not been mentioned you are being asked to do what is not in your nature to do. You might consider paying for leads, but in most cases you are no better off because people that are on email lists are being contacted by a ton of people already and do not want another phone solicitation call. Many internet lead generating sites have so much information that you need to learn that it could take you a year or two just to see leads start signing up. The underlying question is, How do you get people to come to you? These are leads that you do not have to buy or harass. They are interested in what you have to offer and want more information. We have information on our site about leads and how to generate your own leads. Make sure to check the information out and let me know how I can help you more. I have provided a link here to help you become more informed about creating your own unlimited flow of network marketing leads. I know you can do it. Mark Sinclair

Dec 22, The Perfect Christmas Gift

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 22:31:17 GMT

Merry Christmas, Every year, people struggle trying to find the perfect Christmas gift for a loved one, relative, spouse or child. They brave crowded malls. Travel in terrible weather conditions. They wear their fingers to the bone shopping online. All to find the perfect gift that will be remembered for years to come. Many times they look for the latest Tech toy like an 1000Gig Ipod, a G4 Phone that can manage your life etc When thinking about what to give someone special, you do not want a cookie cutter gift like a gift card or fruit cake. No, no, no that will not do. You think about the person, her likes and dislikes, her dreams, her hobbies. You think about the things she does every day. You listen carefully to clues that may come up over the year. And when the time comes you purchase the gift, wrap the gift and include a hand written card. The night before Christmas, you make sure that all of the animals are outside. Heaven forbid that they are left in and rip apart your gifts. You pray that the kids do not wake up sick again this year. You also pray your loud and obnoxious Auntwell you know what I mean. When Christmas comes you can hardly wait to see her reaction when she opens her gift. I will bet you leave her gift until the very end for maximum effect. Timing is so important in your idea of the perfect gift. She finally opens the gift, to slow for your liking. If you did your homework right, you may see a twinkle and a tear gleaming from the corner of her eye. With just one look you connect and a thousand page message of your love is understood in a second. You know you did it right because your focus was on her needs, wants and desires. A wise man once told me, Its not about you! and I think Santa would agree. The true gift of Christmas is Love both given and received. It is a message that has not changed for over 2000 years. Here is to you and your family, May you be blessed this holiday season and prosper in the coming year and as Tiny Tim would say,God bless us everyone.

Nov 2, Facebook Fan Page Tutorial For Network Marketers

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 23:33:46 GMT

Facebook allows anyone to place fan pages that are specific to a business, person, product or service. For network marketers this is a great advantage. As you know if you have been on our site for long, we recommend that you position yourself as a person of value. Most network marketing companies want you to promote the company. But if you can take those marketing skills and promote what you personally have to offer, you will be miles ahead of the competition. A Facebook fan page is a perfect platform to do just that. It allows you to share links to your blog, post video of your product, send updates to your fans, allows you to have an unlimited number of fans and more. I have posted a tutorial video that will lead you through the set up process for your own Facebook fan page. you can find it here Facebook Fan Page Tutorial For Network Marketers.

Oct 27, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde of Network Marketing

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:30:46 GMT

Happy Halloween. Here is a spooky story for the occasion. It is amazing to see the transformation of personalities in network marketing. It is not far from the transformation in the Robert Lewis Stevenson story Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. The once calm, cool and collected person is turned into a powerful money making machine without a thought for the wants and desires of others. The troubling fact behind the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde story is that we all have desires that if left unchecked could cause our downfall and possibly turn us into a network marketing monster. People run in fear when the monster enters the room knowing their end is near and they will soon be drained of life. We know that is not our hearts desire but are caught in the conflict of who we are and who we want to be. There is Hope. There is a way to keep the monster in check. First, we must know who we are and not try to be what we are not. We are all created with our own unique DNA. This includes how we solve problems. We are not all type A personalities. Thank God! In fact only about 8 of the population is a type A personality. Secondly, know your passions. What drives you? What do you dream about at night? What makes you hop out of bed in the morning? Many of us have had these passions clouded by our environment of friends, family and coworkers. If that is the case with you, begin writing about your life and look for patterns that keep emerging. This could take awhile but don't give up. Maybe start a blog and share with others. Lastly, Be Sold Out. Begin learning and search for information that will help you grow in your skills. Learn about various ways to market online and most importantly begin doing it. In conclusion, it is your strength that will keep the network marketing monster at bay. The knowledge that you know how to attract people who are interested in your business. The knowledge that you know who you are and nothing with in or with out can shake that. Happy Halloween, Mark Sinclair

Oct 21, Does Social Marketing Work?

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 23:17:17 GMT

By doing a Google News Alert search for social marketing, you will find 99 of the results focus on large companies. What is the little guy to do? One of the articles asked this question. Do you know anyone thats actually making Social work? The article goes on to say, Theres maybe one or two here The implication is that it doesnt work and should not be promoted. In my experience, its the larger companies that are left in the dust when it comes to change in marketing strategies. Take for instance the newspaper industry that is dying on the vine because advertising revenue is drying up along with circulation. Many of those journalists would be smart to start their own news business online. To answer the question, Do you know anyone thats actually making Social work? Yes. Gary Vaynerchuck, Mari Smith, Mike Klingler, @mashable on Twitter, Maria Andros on Youtube, Ann Sieg, Mike Dillard, Timothy Ferriss and more are making social marketing work. How is it that these people have such a great advantage? They are not tied to the large business mentality of placing clever ads that build business. Instead, they develop relationships with their customers and future customers by giving them relevant information based on research (knowing their customer). After a month or two of following someone on Twitter or Facebook, you will get to know them. You will get to know how they think. You will have a sense of whether they can be trusted or not by what they have written over time. Now is the time to take advantage of the gap between big business and us.

Oct 16, Crush It By Gary Vaynerchuk

Who is Gary Vaynerchuk? Normally I don't post twice in the same week but this is definitely a must. Gary Vaynerchuk is an expert in social marketing through video, Twitter and Facebook. On Twitter alone he has 851,000 followers. His focus is mainly on wine and has been doing video wine reviews. As a sample of how powerful social marketing is, he recently posted on Twitter that he would not charge for shipping for a short period. As a result he received 1800 orders in about 20 minutes. He has just released a book that goes into detail about how anyone can grow a business about any subject and create a decent income. The book is priced at $11.99. What a bargain! The link to Amazon is provided below. The information in his book is a must for network marketers. Mark Sinclair
