Blog Help: Email Marketing

Blog Help: Email Marketing

email marketingDo you know what email marketing is?
One of the biggest set backs of the “Free” blogging platform is the inability to add an auto responder to your blog.
No disrespect to the free platforms because I started onWordPress.com when I first got into blogging. I didn’t have a budget and I was willing to use the limitation I had to build my business. It wasn’t until I got banned from the site and lost all my traffic that I realized the downfall of having a “Free” blog site.
The blessing of creating and having is your own blog is that you can never get kicked off/banned and you can customize the look and feel to what you want to represent.
Email Marketing is a very powerful tool to have on your blog. It gives you the ability to stay in contact with your fan. You will notice that I have 2 auto-responders on this blog post. The one on the right top is a download for a free book. One of my favorites actually. The other is at the end of this post and that is for getting signed up to receive my blog updates.
So people have at least 2 options to opt in to my mailing list.
Today I share some insight on the importance of email marketing. Enjoy.

What Email Marketing  Do I Recommend?

There are a lot of auto responders out there for email marketing. The two I am going to recommend is because I have used them. I will mention a few others but I have never used them. Do some research and find which email marketing tool is right for your needs.
  • Aweber – my number one favorite. Have been using it for years. I love the email capture forms and the ease of this. It may take a few minutes to learn but there are some great tutorials about this system. As an affiliate they allow multiple email share forms. Which means your affiliate gets the email address and so do you!
  • Icontact – used this in the very beginning of my blogging career. Amazing social media integration and super easy to use.
  • Constant Contact
  • MailChimp
Prices will vary with each email marketing system. Find the one that fits your budget and your needs.
Suggestions for how to use email marketing?
Use it for reminders, competitions, sweepstakes, give a ways, free offers, and so much more. The list really is endless for what you can use email marketing for. But it is one of the requirements for any of my blogging students. I tell them that it is the fastest way to make money with your blog.

Why I Joined Elite Marketing Pro

Why I joined Elite Marketing Pro

Elite Markerting ProHow many courses have you bought to learn online marketing?
If you are anything like me you may have gotten a few. You may have purchased courses for Twitter marketing, Facebook marketing, YouTube marketing, and tons of others. Maybe bought a blogging courses or training courses.
What I discovered was that I was missing a very important ingredient and didn’t even know it till Elite Marketing Pro was introduced to me.

MLM Hot Topic: Magnetic Sponsoring

MLM Hot Topic: Magnetic Sponsoring

magnetic sponsoringWhat the heck is magnetic sponsoring?!? Would you like to learn how to have people begging to join your home business opportunity?
The first time I heard this phrase was about 6 years ago when I got into network marketing. I had gone online looking for a way to build my business when I came across a tweet that told me I could attract endless leads for life.
Of course I was curious!!! Who wouldn’t be?!?
In the world of network marketing you entire job is to recruit and get leads. You are to fill the pipe line so that you always have people to talk to.
This was hard for me and I am thinking that you may be struggling with this also. If you are, it is normal in this industry. Many of us want to build our business but we don’t want to come across as salesy or feel like we are trying to convince people that ours is a great opportunity.
There are always people looking to make money and your opportunity could be the solution they are looking for. So if the idea of people contacting you and asking to join you in your opportunity, you would get excited! I know I did!

So What is Magnetic Sponsoring

Magnetic Sponsoring is about providing value and leadership. Tons of marketers are struggling and they go online looking for solutions to their problems.
With Magnetic Sponsoring you are learning how to get in front of those that are struggling and provide solutions to their problems. You are becoming the problem solver.
How does this happen? Through education and providing value. What is value? Becoming a resource.
Many of us in network marketing want to learn how to generate leads. So you would shareMagnetic Sponsoring. This is a course that teaches you how to generate endless leads for LIFE. One of the most powerful tools I use for building online.
Recruiting is another area that many network marketers struggle with. How do you recruit 20-30 people a month into your opportunity? You would recommend....

MLM Hot Topic: How To Fail Online

MLM Hot Topic: How to Fail Online

fail onlineEveryone wants to know how to succeed online, but how does one fail online?
My story would be one of many small failures online. It began about 6 years ago. I began to fail online when I was conflicted with what old school teachings I was getting from my leaders inside my mlm.
Sitting in the training we were taught… “This is what works. Follow this system for proven success.”
So my question became, how do I find the right people to talk to?
Some of the answers were, “Go Talk to Rich People” or “Go to the Mall and talk to all the employees”, or “Just talk to anyone within 5 ft of you”.
But what about online marketing?
I was told that it was a fad. (this was only 6 years ago!!!) No one was going to use the internet to build a business. But I was determined to figure out this thing called online marketing with attraction marketing.
So after I bought Magnetic Sponsoring, which I highly recommend to anyone in the MLM industry. (If you join with me, I will teach you how to use this system to make a couple $100 a month in extra income.)
Sorry… side note… I am extremely passionate about sharing that resource. I believe everyone needs to have it.
Back to the story at hand… From there I purchased a lot of self development books. I bought courses on marketing, copy writing, recruiting, Facebook marketing, YouTube marketing, and also attended live events.
I was determined that one of these would reveal the secret ingredient that I was missing to build my business online. I had some success but still felt like the center puzzle piece was missing and once I had that… WATCH OUT!
This is what I learned about how not to fail online…

The System Show You How NOT to Fail Online

So what will show you how not to fail online?
After buy all my marketing courses the one thing I learned what that I needed a sales funnel.
If you are online you need to have a capture page and an offer. Send traffic to an offer and get people to sign up. The ultimate power is in your list. This is the #1 piece to your puzzle. If you are not working to build an email list you could be seriously hurting your business. Use your list to email your prospects, or even do follow up.
Email is a powerful way to stay in front of your audience and if done right you become a permission based marketer. This means that people are signing up to your lists know that they are going to get information and possibly be sold something also. I recommend Aweber as my preferred choice for auto-responders.
Heck, I get email’s from Chili’s every 3 days offering me a free dessert or appetizer. I joined their list because I saw value in the offer. Now do I go to Chili’s all the time? Nope but it is nice to know that I have this. It is a great way to make me a return customer.
That is what you want to achieve with your list. Follow up and make them a return customer. They can even be a returning customer to your blog. Create value and information that they need and fans will be flocking to return to your blog.
My favorite system by far that has taught me how to become an Elite Marketer is Elite Marketing Pro. For the beginner, just begin by sharing the links and then watch and learn how the system takes over to create you an extra residual income. For the intermediate marketer, use the tools given to you to create your own landing pages and offers. Discover how easy it is to set up an online marketing sales funnel.
At the Elite level you are taking everything you have learned inside this course and creating your own products or services. You know how to market and create a sales funnel that will sell for you 24/7. Never fail online again! Click Link to Learn More www.TheChefKatrina.com/emp

Does Your Right Side Sell Your Blog?

Does Your Right Side Sell Your Blog?

Your Blog SideI just sat through a 20 minute blogging webinar and learned “your blog has a right side and it could use some love”.
So just what the heck am I talking about? Almost every blog has a right side. ——>
This portion of your blog is the selling part. This is where you get optins for your blog, download, or free give away.
Here’s the thing… Your right side has to be congruent with your body. This is where most of the mistakes happen… yes, even to me.
Here is my personal review of my right side. Do you agree?

5 Ways to Make Your Right Side of Your Blog Look Good!

  1. Make sure you have an optin form on your right side. Maybe a give-a-way or e-book that will entice your reader to give you their name and email address.
  2. Facebook Fan Box – with social media being a huge part of our society let people connect with you on Facebook also. If you would like to learn how to add a facebook fan box, click on this link where I show you step by step on how to insert a Facebook Fan Box into your blog.
  3. If you do affiliate marketing make sure your banners or links are relevant to your blog. A lot of times it feels like people just throw affiliate banners up and they have nothing to do with the blog or topic. So practice being congruent.

How Much Does Reliv Cost?

How Much Does Reliv Cost?

reliv costI really love this question and the reason why is because it is the wrong question to be asking.
The real question is what is your health worth to you? How much does it cost you to be sick or your children to be sick?
We are in a place where we rely on prescription drugs and over the counter meds to help us feel better. But they do little more than to mask the real problem.
What is the real problem. We lack is a strong immune system. If you do some research you will find that almost all diseases, colds, and such are autoimmune problems. It means your immune system is crashing and you are giving way for infection, disease, and more to invade your body and reside there. You are actually allowing yourself to get sick. Did you know that stress can weaken your immune system also?
If we were to go on the very low level of the cost of being sick it would look like this:
Missed Work: $7.25 (minimum wage) $58 before taxes
Cold medicine: $25 – figure you are getting at least 2 of something, one for day, one for night and maybe some tissues.
Doctor vistit: $30 co-pay or more if you don’t have insurance
Stress on Family: ???
Just right there… you have lost over $100 in just one day of being sick. What happens if you are out of more than one day? Weeks or even months?

What Does Reliv Cost?

What is your health worth to you? How much are you willing to spend a day to be healthy?
Is $2 too much? How about $3?
What do you pay for a cup of coffee or even a soda?
At what point are you going to look at the benefits of being healthy and see the value there?
reliv costAre you a mom? What happens tomorrow if you get sick? Who is there to help take care of the kids? Who is there to help manage the house? Does it add more stress to your life to be sick? If you are a single mom, who is going to go to work on your behalf? Who is going to put food on the table and pay the bills?
It gets really expensive to get sick. I don’t know what your financial number is but isn’t your health worth it? When are you going to start taking care of yourself?
As a single person, it gets expensive, if I don’t go to work, I don’t get paid. If something serious happens I don’t think I could afford the hospital bills. Even with insurance it doesn’t cover all the medical cost.
I would rather pay a couple of bucks a month to stay healthy, then risk the cost of getting sick.
But seriously… if you are bent on knowing the cost of a Reliv product by all means contact me at http://Katrina.Reliv.com and ask. I have no problem telling you.
The reason I don’t post it here is because I may or may not get back to this blog post if they change a price or product. So I don’t want to mislead you are give you false information. Just me, being totally honest with you.
Yours in Gratitude,

#1 Reliv Question asked by customers and distributors

#1 Reliv Question asked by customers and distributors


#1 Reliv Question Asked by Customers and Distributors

Having been with Reliv for almost 6 years I still get asked this #1 question.
So today I am writing a blog post about how to take your Reliv products. Trust me, I will keep is simple and share this video with you.

So Now That The #1 Reliv Questions Has Been Answered

All Reliv products are synergistic with each other. Meaning that you can take 1 or all of the Reliv products together in the same shake.
In this video I share with you, I am taking the Reliv Classic and the Innergize. Usually I would also add FibRestore to my shake.
There is no wrong way to take a Reliv shake. Optimal nutrition is good for you any way you take it.
Though I have been asked, “What do you take with your Reliv products?”
About 98% of the time I just take my Reliv products with water. Plain, simple, boring water. You can take this nutrition with any beverage or shake of your choice. My only recommendation is that you don’t mix it with carbonated drinks. (They tend to fizz)
If you are looking for different ways to take your shake or just want some really cool recipes, head over to YouTube and search Reliv Recipes. I created a bunch of different recipes you can use to make your shake. I think you will be inspired by one or two of the recipes! :)
Also if you haven’t yet I really do recommend checking out www.Lunasin.com - Lunasin is found in LunaRich and LunaRichX and can only be found with Reliv.
Reliv is nutrition made simple and life made rich.
If you have questions please feel free to contact me through my Reliv site athttp://Katrina.Reliv.com

MLM Hot Topic: Why Do People Quit?

MLM Hot Topic: Why Do People Quit?

As someone that is in the MLM industry I thought this would be a great MLM Hot Topic to talk about today.
MLM Hot TopicWhen I was first exposed to my networking opportunity I was went in with what I thought were eyes wide open. The presentation I went to was really simple. I heard about the health stories and got to see the compensation plan in action. I was pretty excited about what could happen in the MLM industry.
I guess what no one really told me was… “You might not make a dime in this industry.”
The expectation piece was missing. Yes, I made money when I first started. I did really well until I ran out of my hot and warm market and had to look for other ways to talk to people.
I also felt like I had no value. My team was asking me how to build their business and I didn’t have a solution for them. I didn’t know any marketing methods besides the ones I was getting from my upline, which was go out and talk to people?
There was a prospecting company that I was introduced to, can’t remember the name, but their big thing was sizzle cards. Go out and plaster sizzle cards all over the place. This was great but the leads from this were more like people looking for a job than a MLM opportunity. They didn’t want to invest money, they just wanted it handed to them. I really didn’t like this sizzle card method.
So setting expectation I believe is a must for those that truly want to succeed in their MLM business. Be upfront and don’t play into the hype…
Here is a quick video sharing my thoughts on why people do quit.

MLM Hot Topic – Why your downline is bailing on you.

As an add on to the realistic expectation of the MLM industry I have discovered that you need to have value or your downline will bail on you. Then your success becomes a rebuilding, and a rebuilding, and a rebuilding… such a waste of your time and talent.
There is another way. It is called... click on the link below to read the rest of this blog.

Success Online is about Patience

Success Online is about Patience

In a world where everything is about how fast we can get a response, building success with your business online can take some time.
When we get into business online we expect results almost overnight. We believe that if we write it, build it, or create it they we will come. After 5 years of dabbling online I can tell you with truth, this does not happen.
So let me share some secrets with you on what does work online for creating success.
  1. Set a Goal
  2. Take Action every day!
  3. Be consistent and persistent
In this video I share with you something I am learning. Discover how my garden is teaching me success online.

Learning About Success From My Garden

I never thought that growing food would teach me so much about online marketing. They have so much in common it is crazy.
So when I first committed to online marketing back in June we began planting our garden. There wasn’t much. Just some small plants, some nutrient rich soil, water, and sunlight. For my online business I had a system, drive, and a plan to put into action.
Like my first month in online marketing I bloomed. I learned a lot of information but still saw no fruit from my labor. This was also true from my garden. Everything was getting so big but no veggies yet. But I knew that if I kept doing what I was doing I would start to see success.
My second month of applying my teaching and training I began to see... to learn more click on link...

MLM Hot Topic: Success

MLM Hot Topic: Success

MLM Hot Topic: Success – Easy or Hard

Success MLMSuccess for many has a different definition for each of us. As a network marketer success maybe making a $100 bucks a month or more. Success could be firing your boss. Success could even be sharing or helping someone. What ever your definition, one of the biggest struggles in learning how to get there.
Some of us, including myself, may have had success in the beginning but were unable to maintain. Some continued to have success but now have a ceiling the can’t breakthrough. Other are still trying to figure out how to achieve success. A very select few continue to build on their success.
Like this picture, success takes a team and if you are not building a team or surrounding yourself with a team, you could be hurting your success. Don’t try to be the lone wolf and do it yourself. Tap into a success system to help you on your way.
I wanted to share this video with you about Success.

So is Success Easy or Hard?

I guess it all depends on your point of view.
Do you have goals set that are S.M.A.R.T? Do you apply daily action to achieve your goals? Do you continue even when it looks hard and your frustrated?
I think your mindset has a lot to do with your success. If you don’t believe you can have success you won’t. If you have limiting beliefs of what you can accomplish you may struggle.
For me every day is a success. Waking up is a success! Creating a blog post today is a success! Success doesn’t have to be huge things. It just has to be something you consider a success. The first time I picked up the phone and called a lead, that was a huge success. The first time I got a comment on my blog… Success!
Celebrate your successes and it will make all the difference in the world. Share with your upline, downline, and sideline when you create success!

Can Elite Marketing Pro Build Your MLM

Can Elite Marketing Pro Build Your MLM?

Okay, so what is Elite Marketing Pro and why should you care?
Elite Marketing Pro and MLMElite Marketing Pro is the first system put together by Magnetic Sponsoring to teach you how to become an elite marketing pro.
Like many of you I got into network marketing with the hope of building my business to 6-figures but it was harder than I thought.
For the past 6 years I have been trying to figure out how to build my business online. If you are anything like me you chased and bought a lot of shiny objects. You know a course that would teach you how to generate leads. Maybe bought a course that would show you how to market on Facebook. Could be the course that would teach me how to become a master recruiter? Or was it the affiliate program that said they would teach me how to generate leads and make money.
So many promises and yet 6 years later I have spent more money than I have made and was frustrated. I really just wanted to throw in the towel but something stopped me. There had to be something that I was missing.
I actually went back to the first course I ever purchased to learn online marketing, a course called, “Magnetic Sponsoring“. I really enjoyed what I learned about attraction marketing and I was bound to start applying what I was learning.
Then something cool happened… Tim Erway sent me an invite to be a beta member for Elite Marketing Pro. All he had was a vision of what he wanted Elite Marketing Pro to become and some of the tools that would become available to us. And on that information alone I joined.
I became part of a very small group of people that began developing and create Elite Marketing Pro. We demanded training and help and Tim and the Magnetic Sponsoring team went to work for us.

Can Elite Marketing Pro help you build your MLM?

Yes, it can. You will learn how to become a pro marketer and as you go through this training you will be paid as you learn.
This is the first time I have ever had a lead generation company pay me to generating leads that want to learn more about my opportunity.
Can I share my results with you. This is from May 2013 – July 2013.

Excuse me... Do You Speak Blog?

Excuse Me… Do You Speak Blog?

If you are just getting into creating your blog or have been at it for a while but feel like you are stumbling around because of the lingo…
You want to find someone that speaks blog.
My first experience with blogging had me guessing. I had no idea how to install a header or footer. What is the difference between a page and a post. Did tags matter? What the heck was a category? How did you create a custom menu?
AWWWWWW it just seemed overwhelming and the question I had were never ending!
So of course I Googled Blog Help… not much there….
Then I was off to YouTube… this is were I got a lot of my questions answered that I couldn’t get from the “guru’s”.  Still stumbled around a bit but with persistence I think I have most of it figured out. Now I am sure that I am still missing some information but right now I am feeling good about what I do know.

So are you ready for some blog talk?

Let’s do some break down of the blogger lingo.
Q:  What is the difference between a page and a post on a blog?
A:  Page is used for static information.  Information that isn’t going to change. Examples are your “About You” page, “Contact Us” page, or even “Direction Page”.  Post is what you update daily. You add posts to your blog. Like this post right now that you are reading. These are your news updates as I call them.

Hello?! Where are you?

Hello?! Where are you?

The top question… Where are you?
where-are-youAs a blogger we are always looking to increase our readers and get more exposure. We want to write for an audience and get feedback.
So the better question is are you being found? If people are searching for topics and keywords, are they finding you? Where are you?
Ray Higdon is a leader I value and trust. Not long ago we did a webinar about blogging the the one key point that stood out to me was this.
“GET SOCIAL”
You have to be willing to promote yourself first. You have to share your passion with your family and friends and let them know what you are doing.
If no one knows you are blogging how is your reader base going to increase?

So how do you go from Where are you to being everywhere?

Value Leadership - What Is It?

Value Leadership – What Is It?

Over the past couple of months the term value leadership keeps coming up. What does it mean to be a value leader?
In most of my research I have come across value leadership in the corporate business world. The articles are mainly about the values of the leaders and having a code of ethics. They also talk about giving value and being transparent.
So then I began to wonder if you can do value leadership with network marketing. Could you provide value and attract people to you that want to do a business? Is that even possible?

Adding Value Leadership

Back in April I had the opportunity to attend a 4-day weekend “Done for You Video Marketing” event. I paid about $2,000 to learn how to build my brand and use video marketing to generate leads for my business.
Value LeadershipWhat was interesting to learn was the biggest stumbling block most of us had was mindset. Getting over our fear of being in front of the camera. We also learned how to research our targeted audience and brainstorm. Sometimes we are so close to our business that we don’t always see the obvious.
One of the biggest breakthroughs for me was the term value leadership. Jessica Brace my mentor kept saying this over and over again. What Jessica was telling me was, it is not about you, it is about them. Answer their questions. Prove yourself to be a value resource.
No one knows your business better than you do. So find out the most common question and answer them. Let people know that you know your stuff and that you are here for them. Begin to provide value. Be of gratitude and give.
So I learned the power of adding value leadership to my network marketing opportunity. I began sharing what Jessica taught me to my fans, clients, and downline. I invested more into my education so that I can provide more value to my team.
