Need a good laugh? Don’t mess with little old ladies

If I could find a way to post an original link, I would, but I haven’t found it yet so I borrowed this from someone else’s blog and with that, will definitely give that blog owner credit for this posting.

Do NOT Mess With Little Old Ladies in Texas!

This little gem comes from the morning radio show of Roger, Rick and Marilyn over at CHUM FM, and was once again found by my buddy Jimbeau! By the time I was done listening to it, I was laughing so hard it hurt.

Let me set the scene for you before you listen to it. Some guy in Texas is driving in to work and leaving a voice mail for his co-worker explaining why he’s late in case the boss is asking where he is. While he is leaving a message, he witnesses a minor car accident, and then…

Now, I’m not sure what was better - being there in person, or just listening to his play by play description! This guy missed his calling as a TV sports announcer.

Do you know what a “Squeeze Page” is? 31.95% DON’T!

Recently, James Grandstaff revealed something that I found quite interesting…

If you’ve been around the IM (internet marketing) scene for awhile, you’ve most likely heard the term “squeeze page” before, right?

At least that’s what I thought.

Well, James surveyed approx. 500 people on his list who are interested in making money online. Many stated they were interested in affiliate marketing, product creation, MLM, etc…

One of the questions was “Do you know what a “Squeeze Page” is?”

68.05% answered yes and 31.95% answered NO.

To be honest…

I was shocked that 31.95% said no.

What about you?

In light of this shocking survey data I decided to write this post today to go over the very basics of what a squeeze page is and why you should be using them in your business (if you are not already.)

And for those of you who already use them, pay attention. You will probably learn something too.

Here goes…

A squeeze page which is also known as a “lead capture page” or “name squeeze page” is a simple web page with one purpose; to get your visitor to give you their name and email address so you can follow-up with them. That’s it.

One of the best ways to get someone to opt-in to your squeeze page is by offering something of high perceived value such as a mini ecourse or a highly targeted eBook.

For example, let’s say you are promoting a multi-level marketing business opportunity. The products are great and you are a raving fan.

Most people would just start promoting the website the company supplies. I say no. This is a perfect opportunity to implement the use of a squeeze page and offer something of value first.

That way, you collect the leads, you follow-up with an introduction of yourself and begin building a long lasting business relationship.

In sales, what we are really selling is “us” first, then the product.

You always want to provide value first. Once your prospects warm up to you, then it’s time to ask the right questions to determine if your product or business opportunity can help solve their needs.

If you’d like to see a high quality, high converting squeeze page that James has put together, you can visit the link below.

It’s important to read the “thank you” page on the other side you can get an idea of how the whole process works.

Until next time…

Yours in success,

Karen

Reminds me so much of what we used to do when I first started in the industry and although I’m just now reviewing THIS system, I can definitely say it worked before and feel confident it STILL works!

Yet Another Social Networking Site?

How do you keep up with them all?  I can’t!  I don’t know if it’s about being overwhelmed or just not wanting to do all this internet stuff, or maybe it’s because I’ve been there, done that, got prospected way too much and it turned me off.  I’m not sure.  Either way though, I do like to keep up with what others are doing/using and take a look.

Today I was told of yet another Social Networking site that’s fastly becoming popular.  They say it’s much like myspace (www.myspace.com/angelic12)  and facebook (I don’t even know my url here, just recenlty decided to take a closer look because my pastor is now using it, made a connection with other Umstattd’s here as well) but better?!

Here’s a quote from the mlm message board where I learned of this social networking site.

“Bebo has actually been outshining MySpace and Facebook recently.. so don’t forget it’s there. Most people won’t have even tapped that market!Another cool tip:If you want to quickly find targeted prospects in a site such as BEBO, go to Google.com, and for example, use the search string
’site:bebo.com herbalife’ (without the quotes).
That will show all Bebo users who mention Herbalife in their profiles…! Nice eh. “
