Black Pioneers In The High-Tech World and the Digital Divide @waynesutton

2012-01-10T15:39:00.000-05:00

Wow. After 12 years...Blacks are STILL behind in technology? C'mon people.

See this article (from Ebony magazine from 2000...discussing the "digital divide.") Most of these companies are Out of Biz. OMG!

Has anything changed in 12 years for Blacks in Technology? Read on..

THERE has been a lot of talk about the "digital divide," a chasm between the Internet access of Whites and Blacks. But less known are the stories of Black pioneers who are shaping the future with their successes--people like John W. Thompson, the first Black CEO of a major Silicon Valley firm. And 28-year-old Darien Dash, whose Digital Mafia Entertainment Interactive Holdings Inc. (www.dmeinteractive.com) is the first Black-owned publicly traded Internet company. And Air Force veteran Earl Stafford who founded Unitech, Inc., a multimillion-dollar military technology firm in Fairfax, Va.

The visionaries include scientists, executives, celebrities, professors and everyday people whose faith and dreams are carving new opportunities for Blacks. "We have been leaders in the development of the cell phone," says Yvette Moyo, president of MOBE IT (www.mobe.com) Influencers and Innovators of the Internet & Technology symposium series, a biannual technology conference.

"We have been architects of the Internet. We have web sites that allow us to see ourselves in so many ways. We have taken a leadership role in everything that is being written today."

One of the biggest frontiers for Blacks has been the Internet. A 1999 U.S. Department of Commerce report, "Falling Through the Net," revealed that while more Americans are using the Internet, there are far more Whites online than Blacks and Hispanics. But there's also a more encouraging picture.

More than half of Blacks with college degrees are online. Eighty-three percent of African-Americans with household incomes over 90,000 are connected--a number slightly higher than Whites of similar incomes--says a recent poll by the Joint Center of Political and Economic Studies. That untapped community inspired people such as E. David Ellington to follow their visions for cyberspace ventures.

"I never worried about the audience," says the 39-year-old Ellington, CEO and chairman of NetNoir (www.netnoir.com), one of the first Black Internet companies. "I know Black folks will adapt to any technology and use it regularly whether it is computers, cellular phones, pagers, cable TV or boom boxes. For me it wits just a matter of time."

Ellington left his practice as a Los Angeles entertainment lawyer and joined three partners to create a global Black online community. They found seed money through a program for entrepreneurs funded by America Online and launched their Internet site on Juneteenth (June 19) 1995. But their early success was both a curse and blessing, he says. They were unprepared for the reluctance of the financial world to embrace their idea. "I first went to Black media companies and asked them to invest," he says. "But instead of investing or trying to develop the product, they wanted to buy us or close us down."

Finally, they found a Black venture capital fund that believed in their business. In its third month of operation, the site had 15,000 "hits," or page views, and became a national sensation. Today, NetNoir is a multimedia company whose web site gets tens of millions of page views each month. And it is no longer alone. "If someone would say, `I want to search for Black web sites and see what African-Americans are doing, they would be searching for days," says Moyo, whose business partner is her husband Kofi. "I just love the names --Black Voices, BlackPlanet, Black-Cyberspace. They give you a vision of what the future will be. They basically say no limit."

The Black online community includes information/portal sites such as Africana.com (www.africana.com), a Black history and culture site founded by a group of Harvard professors supported by Microsoft, Blackvoices.com (www.blackvoices.com), TheBlackworld today.com (www.tbwt.com), BlackGeeks.com (www.blackgeeks.com) and BlackPlanet.com (www.blackplanet.com), named the most visited African-American information site by Alexa, a firm that monitors traffic on the World Wide Web.

African-Americans have also made inroads in the world of e-commerce. Dwayne M. Walker heads shopnow.com (www.shopnow.com), a Seattle-based general market site whose million-dollar customers include StairMaster, Corel software and Zale's jewelers. Willie Richardson and Gwen Daye Richardson's Cushcity.com (www.cushcity.com) has become the most popular Black e-commerce site on the web.
Along with the work of Black Internet pioneers, other technological advances have come through Black scientists and engineers. Colleagues Dr. Mark Dean, IBM's director of advanced technology development, and Dr. Sandra Baylor, a master inventor in IBM'S research division, are among the new wave of Black computer architects. Dean, who designed the ISA systems bus--a device that allows modems and printers to link to computers, holds three of the nine original patents which made desktop computers available for personal use. He also directed the team of engineers responsible for building a 1,000 megahertz chip, which can complete one billion calculations per second. Dr. Baylor helped develop the prototype for IBM's chess machine, "Deep Blue." She holds seven patents and has four others pending.

Still other triumphs can be found in government, where a Black woman, Cheryl L. Shavers, Ph.D., was confirmed as U.S. Undersecretary of Commerce for Technology. "Technology is one of the last frontiers where you can be certainly judged by ability and talent," she says.

Shavers, who has worked in several engineering and management positions at large technology companies, says that instead of embracing the theory of digital divide, she believes in encouraging people to welcome technological opportunity. "The biggest challenge is not believing the hype but believing in yourself," she says.
Though there are success stories, there are just as many challenges, including the relatively small number of Black students earning science and engineering degrees and the fact that it is more difficult for Blacks to secure start-up money, experts say.

Shavers says the key to defeating those obstacles is education. "I have a 4-year-old daughter and I have responsibility to children between her age and myself to ensure that the trail I'm blazing gets wider and wider," she says.

Stafford of Unitech Inc. says the technological gap can be bridged when plugged-in Blacks help others get connected. "We have to learn that regardless of how little we have, we have to give back," he says. "Once we support our own by calling churches, fraternities and sororities and small businesses, we're going to have a totally different mind-set and get more people involved in this revolution."

Forrester Research, a Massachusetts technology analysis firm, predicts that the number of Black households with PCs will rise to 40 percent by the end of this year Stafford and other veterans say that jump would be due in part to the efforts of young people who are involved from the bottom to the highest ranks of technology. The future, they say, rests in the hands of twenty-something leaders such as Omar Wasow, executive director of Blackplanet.com, DME Interactive's Darien Dash and the generations that follow.
"The word `pioneer' makes me uncomfortable, but I'm honored by it," he says. "In the Internet, a 28-year-old can be a pioneer, because the Internet is not that old yet. We've just scratched the surface, and if I've been able to help to get people involved then I've been blessed and I'm fortunate."

Dash has already designed a plan to give free computers, training and access to underserved areas. "We need to start educating ourselves about technology," says Dash, whose clients include major companies such as HBO, LaFace Records and Microsoft Corporation. "And we need to teach one another. It's really the X- and Y-generations that are driving the stream."

Wasow, who traces his interest in technology to video games (Donkey Kong and Pong) played as a child, says he would like African-Americans to act as agents of their own success. In September of '99, the New York native founded BlackPlanet.com (www.blackplanet.com), a community for African-Americans on the World Wide Web. In its first month, the site had 10 million page views. In January of this year, BlackPlanet had more than 70 million visits, a number that makes it the No. 1 community site for Blacks.

Moyo and others say enterprises like Wasow's and Dash's forecast a future of amazing achievements for Blacks. "Once our young people embrace technology, we will be able to do the same thing on computers that we're able to do in the halls of Congress, in the world of literature and academia and on the basketball court," says Moyo.

"Once we grasp the technology, we will be able to reach new levels."

Make Money Blogging

2012-01-03T20:46:00.000-05:00

I love to blog. I love sharing ideas. I love content curation. I also love passive income. Multiple streams of revenue has added some significant income to my bank accounts. I am passionate about showing others too. Affiliate marketing is the easiest way to make money blogging. I partner with several colleagues to create positive cash-flow joint ventures. It works. We have an Inner Circle mastermind group and we are teaching these strategies and sharing our secrets. See www.perrywilliamson.com to get the pre-recorded webinar. #excel in 2012!

An attraction of affiliate marketing is the savings that the merchant will gain when he no longer conducts his own advertising and publicity. Some merchants, who already have a well-established affiliate marketing program, no longer bother to conduct any activity that will lead to more sales. Such may not impair the current sales of the online business, but it failed to tap into another avenue of selling that can increase the revenue of the online business.

Thus, the merchant must still conduct some form of advertising even when he has an effective affiliate marketing program, and even when he has hundreds of affiliates conducting the promotions for him. The merchant must look into making a second or even a third sale to the customers he acquired. Such is called back-end selling. The practice of back-end selling can complement affiliate marketing.

Here are some ways that a merchant can perform back-end selling:

Newsletters ? Whether through email or sent through snail mail, these publications are perfect avenues to introduce the other products of the merchant. These other products are the back-end products. Therefore, in the merchant?s website, there should be a part where the customer is asked whether he would like to receive free newsletters from the online company. If the customer clicks yes, then this customer will be taken to a page that will ask for his email or mailing address.

The way to engage on social media and build relationships:
1. Comment on blogs and videos. Give the author of the creator some encouragement or thank them for the post and let them know what you got out of their content.
2. Retweet someone else’s twitter and “like” someone’s comment on Facebook.
3. Call in to a teleconference or blogtalk show and ask questions.

Bottom line – in order to get friends, you have to show yourself friendly. When social networking and participating in online marketing, people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. Keep the emphasis on SOCIAL, when using social media and you’ll do fine. It’s really just all about building relationships with people – not numbers.

Google explains marketing tools to Mich. businesses

By Jaclyn Trop/ The Detroit News August 4, 2011

Detroit — Google Inc. Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt spoke here Thursday with Michigan businesses to explain how they can use Google's marketing tools to level the playing field and make money from their entrepreneurial visions.
The Internet is vital to growing business in an age of increasingly specialized, global markets, Schmidt told the group, which included representatives from Belle Tire Inc., Okemos-based software company TechSmith Corp., Ann Arbor-based global transportation firm Con-way Inc. and Ideal Group Inc., which hosted the event at its Detroit headquarters.
While it's never been easier to create new businesses, he said, it's also never been harder to beat competitors.
"Your economic solution is solved by the fact that the Internet exists," said Schmidt, who served as Google's CEO for 10 years before stepping down this spring. "It's easy to criticize the Internet because it's not perfect, but you want to think about what life would be like without it."
Google's paid advertising program Google AdWords has helped local businesses get ahead in an increasingly competitive market "where a penny one way or the other puts you out of the game," said Louis Green, president of Michigan Minority Supplier Development Council.

Free Internet tools are the "great equalizer," Green said. "A small firm looks just like a large firm."
Google's targeted advertising tools helped generate $1.3 billion in economic activity for more than 43,000 Michigan businesses and nonprofits last year, a 40 percent surge from 2009, Google said.
The Mountain View, Calif.-based media conglomerate is trying to make further inroads against traditional advertising by noting its search tools can help businesses reach new customers and thrive online for a fraction of the cost of traditional marketing.

Shama Kabanin, author, The Zen of Social Media Marketing

GET YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA SWAG ON!!!
Make sure your content is not boring. Add pictures and video, if possible. Make it eye-pleasing. The great thing about social media is that it’s your world! Be as creative as you want to be. The more creative your blogs are, the more people feel a personal connection to you and start to see your true personality. This will build trust early on and cause them to stay connected long term.
Don’t be discouraged if you don’t get one million ‘followers’ as soon as you create your Twitter profile. Social media takes time and dedication. It may not seem like anyone is paying attention to you; it may seem as though no one is listening. But believe this, someone is watching you.

They’re just waiting to see how consistent you will be. Don’t change the message that you send out. If you’re a motivational speaker, your tweets and statuses should motivate, daily!

Over time, you will see positive results from people you never even knew were watching.

SEO + Publicity + Social Media = ?

Getting lots of targeted visitors is a dream of any website owner. Although many people put a lot of work and have valuable content on their websites, some of them never manage to get a desirable amount of traffic. This article will give you some information about a way, how anyone, who has some experience in creating vector graphics can get lots of quality backlinks and attract visitors.

Nowadays vector graphics are becoming more and more popular. Designers use them for logotypes, posters and web templates. As a result, lots of free vector galleries have been established during the past few years. Illustrators share their vector art in these galleries and get backlinks to their sites. How this can be beneficial? Why is it worthwhile to share vectors for free? There are lots of reasons and I'm going to discuss some of them.

* Most of galleries of free vectors are popular and gets lots of visitors. Some of them get about 500 thousand visitors a month. Submitting your vector art to galleries, that are this popular, would definitely bring several hundred visitors to your website.
* Some of vector galleries have a high Google page rank. When somebody adds link to your website, Google gives you some credit and positions your website higher in their search results. The higher page rank of a linking site is, the more credit you get. So, submitting your vectors to free galleries is an easy way to get quality backlinks and be positioned high in major search engines.
* You can choose an anchor text for links to your website. Once you submit vector art to free vector galleries, you can specify a name of your website. It would be a good idea to choose keywords, that you are trying to rank high for in search engines as your website name. In this way, your website will get a decent boost in search engine rankings and eventually, more and more people will find it through Google, yahoo and other search systems.

Marketing Strategies That Will Help You Build a Good Marketing Campaign

2010-12-05T02:56:00.000-05:00

Every marketing strategy begins with a brainstorming session. I know, obvious right? Consider what amazing ideas have arisen from long boring brainstorming sessions like the funny car commercial and the outrageous fast food advertisement. I'm sure you can identify from memory which brand marketing campaigns I'm referring to (there are more than one of each).

The fact that you can name the product or brand is a testament to that promotional campaign.

Here are six basic steps to building a strong a marketing campaign:

1. Identify your market. Understand who you are going to target and define those parameters. Are you going to sell to the youth? Will you target teenage girls or boys?
2. Identify their interests. Get to know your target audience and what they are interested in. How do they spend their free time? What technology or media do they use frequently?
3. Match your product/service to your target market. You understand who your target market is and you know your product/service. It is important to pair the two and to determine how your product/service will benefit, say, teenage boys.
4. Create your marketing strategy. You've gathered information on your target audience and matched their needs to your product/service. The next step is to create your marketing strategy. Brainstorm and come up with ideas that will identify with and place your product/service in front of your target audience.
5. Position your marketing strategy. You have a product/service, a target market and have to refine your marketing strategy, so now you need to assess where you will position it. Which media will you use in terms of magazines, newspaper, television, radio, billboards and/or internet marketing?
6. Commence your marketing campaign. The research has been completed and your marketing strategy is in place. So what are you are waiting for? Now get that marketing campaign on the road.

Taking the time yourself or having a marketing agency to research and build a good marketing campaign is essential if you want your brand to be well received and to create sales.

What Is New Media?

2010-11-19T13:44:00.001-05:00

Old School: Traditional hard and soft-cover books
New School: Digital books, ebooks, Kindles, iPad and other wireless reading devices are on the way!

Those Golden Days of Publishing are Gone!
In the golden days, an author would secure a book deal through an agent, publish the book, go on tour escorted by the publicist or media escort - and if they scored enough publicity, they'd become a "best selling" author.
Or at the very least, the author's book sales would cover the tour, pay back the advance and make the publisher some money. Profit was the name of the game - and the system was working - until about 2005.
Suddenly bookstores, media properties and publishing houses began to crumble. The internet was the "game changer" and the traditional book publishing and promotion process have become ineffective.
Up until this point, the world wide web was for those techy-geeky folks and had no real impact on book sales. But now Amazon.com, print-on-demand, viral marketing messages, social media and powerful online communities have leveled the playing field.
Bookstores, agents, fat clunky press kits and publicists scoring traditional media are not the keys to an author's success anymore.
There are tons of self-published or independent books that have made history - and surprised the publishing world. Like The Shack, a Christian novel by William P. Young was originally self-published in 2005. And as of February 2010, over seven million copies in print worldwide, spent seventy weeks holding the number one spot on the New York Times bestseller list, and it continues to remain in the top ten to date.
The success of The Shack demonstrates what word-of-mouth and community networking can do for a self-published book, but more interestingly, the market strength of religious books in the United States, within and without the book publishing industry.

So let's compare old school and new school way of doing things:

Old School: Traditional hard and soft-cover books
New School: Digital books, ebooks, Kindles, iPad and other wireless reading devices are on the way!
Old School: Book tours
New School: Blog tours & webinars
Old School: Getting reviews in magazines and newspapers
New School: Getting reviews on Amazon and in book communities where readers hang out like Shelfari, goodreads, librarything.com, rawsistaz and more
Old School: Web 1.0 (webmasters needed for HTML and complicated stuff)
New School: Web 2.0 (freedom - just a blogger blog or WordPress.com blog) Two-way communication!
Old School: Mailing out ARCs, books and big press kits
New School: EPK(electronic press kits) and ebooks
Old School: Media Escort
New School: Virtual Assistant
Old School: Press releases emailed and mailed to media
New School: SEO press releases sent or using online media matching service like Pitch Rate or Reporter Connection
Old School: Printing, stamping and mailing newsletters to mailing list accumulated over the years
New School: Sending out eNewsletters & continual email marketing campaigns using autoresponders and broadcast emails
Old School: Creating & updating media lists
New School: Capturing emails of interested readers using an "opt-in" database program like AWeber
Old School: TV interviews
New School: Creating book trailers, viral videos and streaming LIVE online
Old School: Authors visiting reading groups and libraries
New School: Teleconferencing or streaming live to many groups at the same time from the comfort of your home via Skype or a bridge line
Old School: Postcard mailings to readers, bookstores and organizations
New School: Eblast postcard to thousands using email marketing services like Goodgirlbookclub, BlackGospelPromo, ChristianPRGroup or DetroitGospel
Old School: Radio Interviews
New School: Podcasts and internet radio shows (heard online or downloaded via itunes)
Old School: Magazine features
New School: Ezine Features
Old School: Writing a column in newspapers
New School: Syndicated articles submitted on article directories like Ezine using keywords and generating web traffic or writing a regular blog
Old School: Stigma that self-published books "didn't cut it" and that's why they're not with a major house
New School: Savvy self-published authors are doing it big, getting noticed, making money and living a successful career doing what they love - writing!
Old School: Generating publicity in media outlets and getting no immediate input from audiences
New School: Building relationships, getting direct response from readers and creating communities online
Old School: Getting radio, TV, Newspaper and magazine reviews
New School: Creating thousands of followers, friends and fans online who interact with you and are connected with you through your whole career

Networking for Newbies - Creating a Page - The Difference Between a Page and a Post - Adding a Link

2010-11-17T22:00:00.000-05:00

WordPress is a Content Management System and blogging tool. A blog (web-log) is an online journal, diary or commentary, presented as a website. Generally, one or more contributors (bloggers) add new content to the top of the website on a semi-regular basis.

So...now here's your lesson:

If you've been following my articles on setting up a WordPress blog and creating your first post, you may now be wanting to create your first page. Before we begin however it's a good idea to make sure you understand the difference between a page and a post.

Although a page and a post seem similar, there are in fact two distinct differences....
• A page is 'static' - that is it doesn't change. People use 'static pages' for such things as your front home/welcome page or an about me page or a contact page
• A post on the other hand is your 'constantly updated content' such as a series of articles or discussions about your business, hobbies or personal life.

So let's presume you want to create a 'static' about me page.

The first thing you need to do is to log into your back office (dashboard) by going to:
http:// yourblogname / wp-admin, then log in as usual.

From your dashboard you need to look to your left hand column and click 'page' -
Here you'll see two choices: 'add new' and 'edit' - if you want to create a new page you obviously click on 'add new' but if you've not done this before, you'll need to click 'edit' first because by default WordPress will have given you a sample about page already.

After you click on 'edit' you'll see to the right, a tab to the 'about' page, so click on 'about' and it will open up the work station for your 'about' page. You'll notice here that WordPress has kindly put in some example text for you, so you're going to need to change this.

First of all you may want to change the 'about' title box to: 'about me' or 'about yourname' so that people know exactly what it's about. Then in the main box underneath you need to delete the sample text and replace it with your story.

Your story needs to tell people all about yourself, for example; where' you're from, your interests and how you came to be writing a blog or starting an online business. This will help to give you credibility, build your brand and portray 'you' as a real person to whom people can relate - it's all about building relationships.
Once you've finished, all you need to do is go over to your right and click 'update page' and that's it, you've created your first page.

The only other thing I want to cover here is creating a link. A link is just a 'clickable word' that takes you either to another page or post on your blog or to another website.

You may be wondering if you're new - 'why would I want to create a link'? - well the main reason is because Google likes links! - it helps to join related posts, pages and sites and Google likes 'relevance' so it will help with your SEO.

The good thing is WordPress makes it really easy to create links. All you need to do is open your page or post and click on 'edit' then simply highlight a word in your page or post that you wish to 'link from' - once your word is highlighted go up to the editing tools and look for a little 'chain link icon' - 'click' on it and this will open up a little box - here you simply add the url of the page you want the link to transfer to - click insert and that's it you have a link!

Look out for my next article on creating a static front page.

Practical Social Marketing - How to Leverage Facebook, YouTube and Twitter for More Article Traffic

2010-10-17T23:23:00.001-04:00

Social Media Marketing is a great way to get more traffic to your articles when you leverage the Social Marketing platforms correctly. The interesting thing is many online marketers have never even thought of these tips that you are about to discover.

At the time of this writing, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter are the Big 3 in terms of the amount of traffic each received.

Alexa.com ranks Facebook as #2, YouTube as #3, and Twitter as #9, so all three are in the top ten most trafficked sites on the Internet.

Why wouldn't you use these top ranked sites to get more traffic to your articles?

Quick Tips for the Big 3
So here are a few quick tips to leverage Facebook, YouTube and Twitter for more traffic to your articles.
Facebook - I'm still surprised when I hear students say "I never thought of doing that with Facebook!" If that's you, then it's time to start thinking about it, and then doing it!

When you have a new article come out, announce it on Facebook. A simple update that says "Brand New Article - Then give your article title and the link to the article. What's really cool is when you include the link in your Fan Page update, a little "preview box" drops down where you can say more and include a graphic. This is nice "eye candy" that will attract more visitors to click through to your article.

YouTube - YouTube is more than just a site to upload your videos and try to drive traffic to your web pages. You can also use it to drive traffic to your articles.

Many of my Video Articles are short 1 - 3 minute videos discussing just one point from one of my articles. Then I include the link to the rest of the article, both in the annotations in the video, and in the description of the video.

Twitter - One of the many cool things about Twitter is you can post tweets about the same article more than once a day.

The first one can be automatic, when you set up your EzineArticles account to send an automatic "New Article Alert" to Twitter each time you have a new article published.

Then you follow that automated tweet with tweets of your own announcing the new article. One way to do this is to ask "Have You Seen This Yet?" then include the article title and a link to your article. Always include the link to your article.

And now imagine who much traffic you would get to your next articles when you use one of these strategies. I wonder how much traffic you would get if you used all three with your next articles?

And you know what? You can learn more strategies just like these each month when you join the growing community of smart online marketers you get the Social Marketing Money Insider's Update each and every month.

You can get 2 Free Months now at http://SMMIU.com - after the first 2 Free Months it's completely up to you if you continue on (we do hope you will) no strings, no tricks.

Bill Gates speech: 11 rules your kids did not and will not learn in school

2010-09-29T23:22:00.001-04:00

Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2: The world doesn't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

How to Stand Out in a Crowded Niche

2010-08-07T03:15:00.000-04:00

In today’s industry niche’s are getting more crowded. It’s getting harder and harder for smaller people to stand out when there are already big names out there. Some people think it’s impossible to stand out anymore and some just give up trying.

While working on the Robswebtip’s re-launch, it has been one of my goals to crush all my competition and put them to dear shame. Yes, that means competing with 7 figure affiliate marketers and bloggers who have been in the game and are much more well-known than me, but it’s possible to beat them.

I knew this wasn’t going to be something I can just wake up one day and do. But, I’ve been taking my notes and like any good blogger, I’m sharing them with you.

How to stand out

Be yourself , be original

There is no way you will ever been seen if you try to copy everyone else. Same post style, same blog concept, same content etc… I watch over and over again people trying to copy people’s same exact style. Look at it like this – why would anyone care about coming to your blog, when you are replicating the same stuff another blogger (only more popular and successful) than you are is doing? Who’s going to really become the winner of that situation?
Add your own twist and flavor to things. If video blogging is your way of reaching out, then go for it. If you write articles that have an irreverent look on things then keep doing that.

Analyze your competition

This is essential to standing out in a crowded niche. Find the big names in your niche and analyze their blog. See how they monetize it, interact, promote themselves, etc… After you find out what they are doing, do it better. If they aren’t replying to comments, make sure you reply to comments. If they are offering something valuable, you offer something more valuable.

Ask your community

Throughout the past couple of weeks I’ve been talking with a lot of my readers personally about how I can improve my site and what they would like to see done differently. I’ve also had people compare my site to my competition. I would ask what do they feel they can receive at Robswebtips that they cannot receive anywhere else and vice versa. All the feedback I gather I apply it to my development of future projects and how I do things.
Remember, your community is what defines your entire blog. If you don’t have anyone to read your content, your screwed.

Get your name out there!

OK… this is an obvious one, but still very few people do it. What is one things that A-listers have over an average blogger? Exposure. You see them everywhere, company ads, mentioned on sites, twitter, Facebook, Youtube etc… You need to get your name out there. Don’t expect people to come and find you, you need to find them and make them come to you.

Attend webinars
Conferences
Guest posting
Social media
Networking
Blog commenting

Whatever you have to do to get your name out there, let people know who you are and what you’re about.

Form an inner-circle

Monday morning I was having a conversation with my buddy Alex from Blogsessive and he brought up a very valid point that all successful bloggers have in common. They do cross promotion. Look at the Jeff Walker and Shoemoney launches. All the big names were promoting their products. John Chow, Jeremy Shoemoney, Jonathon Volk, Yaro Starak etc… They aren’t just doing this because of the nice juicy commissions, they are doing this because they have built an alliance with each other. Whenever someone comes out with a product, they promote it and spread their name around. Jonathon will interview John, John will interview Jonathon. They’ll collaborate and do some project together. You get the point.
Network effectively and build your own inner-circle of friends/colleagues who will help you grow.

Group Discussion

Creating a blog that will stand out from the crowd isn’t hard, it just takes work. You need to dedicate a lot of time and effort into making this work if you want to stand out. Throughout my journey of re-launching Robswebtips (coming soon) these are some of the things I’ve learned to apply. What about you? In what ways do you strive to stand out from others? How do you make yourself noticeable in a crowded niche?

Taking control of your online presence

It used to be enough for a business to have a website

Customers would go online to their favorite search engine, and find what they were looking for. With an effective site, your business would be found and your business would grow.
But now, there are more websites than ever and it is harder to get the visibility your business needs from a website and search engine traffic alone. The way your customers use the internet has changed.
The internet is now a very social place to be. There are a myriad of social networking sites where your potential customers are spending their time interacting with each other – but are the interacting with you? Are they learning about your business?
In today’s competitive environment, it is more important than ever for a business to engage their customers where they are spending their time online – and today those places are social media websites.
But how does the average business person find the time to learn about how to effectively move their website from the static sites of the past to the connected websites of today?

Do YOU have an Online Following? Are you on Page One of Google? Can your customers find you?

2010-06-02T19:39:00.000-04:00

Do YOU have an Online Following?

Christian Retailing spotlighted this trend recently in an article calling attention to the group of author-run blog sites and new social media forms such as Twitter and Facebook.

Cheryl Kerwin, senior marketing manager for Tyndale publishers says, "An author needs to be online somewhere - whether it's a blog, Facebook page or a website (or twitter). Digital seems to be the trend, and we recommend this to all of our authors, encouraging their involvement in this 'cost free' communication ...which builds a loyal following."

For more tips on online marketing, I have a downloadable ebook and an audio mp3 on WEB 2.0 that teaches you how to "Be The Media." See our PR Pro Coach Shop.

I also do group PR coaching to help authors get a "grip" on how to leverage their social networking into a loyal online following.

5 Best Ways to Create Information Products That Increase Your Revenue

2010-05-11T01:10:00.000-04:00

If you are a small business owner who sells a professional service of any kind, you can increase your income dramatically by adding information products to your offerings.

If you sell only your time for money, even if you get loads of clients, you run out of time eventually. There's only so many hours in the day to book clients or to do projects for clients.

There are many ways to deliver value to your clients and customers where you make money without being present. Info products are a great solution if you are getting burned out on clients and consulting work.
And even if you're not burned out, information products can create cash flow quickly and easily. So here are 5 best ways to create information products that increase your income... no clients required.

It's not about YOUR knowledge (sorta)

When I created my very first eBook, I was so full of myself. I thought, hey, I know a whole lot and it's time for me to share it all! Big mistake. Here's why. I never stopped to ask myself these 2 critical questions:
Who is this eBook for? What problem does this eBook solve?

I was all excited to share great stuff with the world. But here's the thing, I could ramble on for hours and hours on stuff I think is important and what I think everyone should know. But my brilliance is not worth a single penny if I'm not focused on what my target market wants. In fact, I should not have written a single word without first checking in with the folks I hoped would buy the eBook.

So step one in creating information products that sell is to ask your future buyers - your target market - what they want and where they need help. And then go create what they have asked for in your area of expertise. You may be surprised to discover that what they want is not at all what you were originally planning on creating. What results is it supposed to create?

If you are creating an information product, it's not just information. It solves a specific problem for your customers. You're not just teaching or sharing. You're providing answers that are intended to produce results for the folks who purchase and use your information product.

So the next step in creating information products that sell is to make sure it is designed to help produce results for people. It should be crystal clear to your audience that the sole purpose of your product is to help them achieve a result in some area of their life or business. To create an information product that sells, give it a results-focused title and make sure the content is results-focused as well.

Selling your info-product online
Your info product won't sell itself on the internet. There's a big fallacy fostered by the rise of the internet marketing world that if you create an info product, set up a web page, the cash starts rolling in and you get to retire on a beach in the Caribbean raking in millions. Um... not so. As the saying goes "these results are not typical." Can it happen? Absolutely By just setting up a web page? Highly nlikely.
Check the size of your list/database right now. If it's pretty small (hundreds), you may see a few sales (if any at all). Now, if that's a list of folks who have met you in person, and who have a relationship with you, sales may be higher because trust may be higher. Also, if the folks on your list are just a bunch of random people (not niched to any particular group or industry or target market), the chances of making sales are pretty slim.
If you don't have a crystal clear strategy for rapidly growing a quality and highly targeted list, a way to drive traffic to your website, a way to convert visitors to your list on your website, effective ways to convert visitors into buyers, online sales are unlikely for your information product.

Selling your info-product offline
Your info-product won't sell itself offline either. If you plan to sell your information product offline to individuals or groups you meet in person, you'd still need an effective marketing and sales strategy to make that happen reliably and consistently. It probably goes without saying that anything you offer in business (including an information product) requires a marketing plan and a sales conversion process as well. Sure, I've made thousands and thousands of dollars selling information products, but I'd be the first to tell you my knowledge of copywriting, marketing, and sales are what makes that happen online and offline. The payoff of acquiring that type knowledge is HUGE (and necessary) for your business growth and success. So if you're ready to sell information products (or sell anything for that matter), invest in marketing, sales and copywriting knowledge or be ready to delegate it to someone who is savvy in those areas.

What to create
Ebook? Downloadable Audios? CDs? DVDs? Online videos? Manual? Workbook? A combo? What should you create? If you're stuck on "what to create" this probably means you need to go get more information from your target market. I don't have to think too hard about what to create. My target market tells me what they need, and what they are trying to solve. If you write an eBook and start getting suggestions to make it more visual, you may need to add some worksheets or a manual, for example.

Back in my days as an Executive Coach, I used to teach a course on learning styles and working styles, so with that awareness, I try to create products that work for visual, auditory and kinesthetic learners. But your market will tell you what to create - if you ask. Listen very closely to their answers and you'll be well on your way to creating an info-product that truly sells.

Twitter Rockstar: How to go from zero to hero on Twitter without selling your soul

2010-04-06T17:44:00.001-04:00

Ever wonder how all these people are gaining Guru Status on Twitter?

I recently met this guy who has been killing it on Twitter without using any mass follow or auto-follow techniques.

He basically came onto the scene from nowhere and is slowly starting to make his mark.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I first started hearing about the stuff he was doing.

This dude has spent over 5 months testing all this stuff...and apparently he' s come out of the shadows to reveal his secrets to the rest of us.

He just showed me a technique that he used to make a targeted list of 500 people, in under a week, with a brand new Twitter account& with only 10 minutes per day to work with!

I thought it was too good to be true, but he proved me wrong!!!

Don't believe me? Go see this video about building a targeted list on Twitter in a week.
http://bit.ly/tweetrockstar

Pretty amazing, right?

And Nathan is obviously not a Guru. He simply did the work that no one else wanted to do because he got sick and tired of reading bad Twitter books and watching ridiculously overhyped videos.

If you're like me, it would probably take you years to figure all this out, too. Fortunately for us, this dude reveals all his secrets for becoming a Twitter Rockstar and learning how to dominate your niche or brand with Twitter.

He debunks a lot of myths about Twitter, shows you some techniques I' m sure you've never heard of (this blew me away since most Gurus tell you the opposite! Now I know why: they want you to follow them and hang on their every word..).

The thing is, I doubt he will keep his course available for long. Would you?

So save yourself years of struggle, trial and error, hours and hours of testing, and a huge learning curve by checking out Twitter Rockstar today at http://bit.ly/tweetrockstar

P.S. You owe it to yourself to spend just a few minutes watching Nathan reveal his 500 targeted followers in under 7 days video. Just think what it would mean if you just did that every week!

Internet Marketing Explained....GOOGLE ranking is KEY!

2010-04-04T00:46:00.000-04:00

Hey Super Star!

Time to RESURRECT YOUR Dreams!

Getting ranked on the first page of Google use to be a very, very difficult task. Almost impossible for the average online entrepreneur.

BUT... things have changed online in the last few years, and the game is wide open.

Listen up ...Today I want to show you exactly how you can get your self positioned on the first page of Google and the other top search engines.

There's several different strategies you can use, but they all come down to THREE basic principles.

STEP #1: Keyword Research

It all starts with keyword research. You need to decide which specific keyword phrases you want to compete for. And better yet you want to know if you stand a chance at winning.

This is where the importance of proper keyword research comes in. You will waste a lot of time and effort without the proper research.

So, to make this easy for you, we've put together some really great training videos that explain exactly how to do this. Have a look under STRATEGY #8 Content & Article marketing. You will find the videos on Keyword Research.

http://www.brandingsuperstar.com/training/marketing/08

STEP #2: Create your CONTENT

You can create articles, blog posts, squidoo lenses, hubpages, or videos. They idea here is to create good, quality content that will get read or watched.

Now you take the list of keyword phrases that you have chosen from your research and create the content around these phrases.

Use the keyword phrase in the title, in the description and in the body of the content. Nothing complicated here folks.

STEP #3: Distribute your CONTENT

Now that you have your content, all you need to do is get it out on to the world wide web. Post your articles in several article directories, create a squidoo lens, a hubpage, on your blogs, or use the content in forums.

With videos distribute them to several video sharing sites and post them on your blogs.

Want a shortcut?

Check out our secret weapon to dominating Google:

5 Powerful Ways to Build One Way Backlinks

2010-02-17T00:37:00.001-05:00

One way links pointing back to your websites are very important in search engine optimization. Not just that, they are extremely powerful when they come from high quality or high profile websites. There are many ways to build one-way backlinks, but these five are potent and powerful.

Link Baiting
This is quite controversial but when used properly, can be very powerful in that the content, widget or software can go really viral. There are many ways to do this, and they all vary in their complexities. However, the easiest is by creating stellar content that are very relevant and masterpieces that people would love to have, bookmark and share with friends and relatives.

Article marketing
In this case, all that is required is writing articles and promoting them. There are many ways to do this. Submitting to the article directories as many people seem to teach is not enough. You need more "juice", more web power to really achieve the desired results.

Links from wikis, .gov and.edu sites
This is a very powerful backlink building method. However, this is quite difficult as getting links from these places take time, effort and hard work as these sites are quite skeptical of links.

Guest Blogging and Blog commenting
In guest blogging, you have to find related niches with some authority to write for. And blog commenting is about the same too. The only difference being that you just post comments on the blogs. It is very important that the blogs be dofollow and not nofollow.

Press Releases
Press release services are seen as high authority and are therefore, powerful sources of one-way backlinks. All it takes is a press release with both an anchor text and a link to the targeted website.

These five ways of getting the necessary one way back links are proven and very effective. The only thing is doing them yourself can be very hectic and tasking.

Viral Videos For List Building !

2009-12-23T10:14:00.000-05:00

All experience marketers know the old adage that “the money is in the list."

Network marketers have developed contact lists in many different ways over the years. Generally a sign up form is offered with a free giveaway. Someone simply fills out the form with a name and e-mail address to “opt in” to the autoresponder and the free giveaway is provided to them. In return for that, they generally understand that they have granted permission for whoever made the offer to follow up with other e-mails with other offers.

Several years ago the singular e-mail opt-in was taken a step further when software was developed that asked the first recipient to forward the offer to 4-5 of there friends in order to qualify for the free giveaway, or perhaps even a very low priced offering. Hence, list building became viral, meaning that a single e-mail to a single individual could be multiplied in a near exponential manner as each level of opt-ins continued to forward the offer to even more people.

The Web 2.0 World

Of course the latest to trend in the network and internet marketing community is the Web 2.0 world of blogs, YouTube, Twitter and the like. The use of videos in various social networks in order to communicate and establish a following with the subscribers has become ubiquitous. The net result of all this is that seemingly the most effective way to communicate with potential subscribers, or even to acquire subscribers and customers these days is probably through the use of videos.

Videos have a number of advantages, including the ability to present yourself as a sincere and a knowledgeable person in a face-to-face way. A potential subscriber or customer is more likely to buy from someone they they feel like they know.

So consequently, it’s almost imperative these days that you use the video medium in order to communicate with potential prospects to turn them into eventual customers.

The New Viral Video World

Interestingly, a new video software system to build a contact list and potentialcustomer list virally has been introduced. Internet guru Joel Therien, CEO ofKiosk.ws, is in the process of launching very easy to use video building software called Easy Video Producer that has the potential to be a very effective way of generating contacts in a viral manner.

This system is unique because the software itself is being offered as the free giveaway for this video “tell-a-friend” system. Essentially, the system will offer you free and extraordinarily easy to use video generating software that builds and posts your personally produced video and information capture form on a website or blog. A contact management system is included with the free offer as well.

The viral concept is that you would then attract traffic to introduce yourself to the prospect in a more personal way, offering them the opportunity to opt in and use the same free software that you used to prepare the video. The prospect and new contact would in turn use his free new system to attract even more potential contacts for his list and yours as well.

As in the earlier e-mail systems, the originator of the viral distribution of the free software would have access to every subscriber in the levels below him. So, what is offered is a system that provides a free and very simple (even a cave man could do it) method of posting videos to the internet that have a specific purpose of giving away additional software in a viral manner to capture a fast growing network of contacts with whom you can continue to build a relationship.

The Issues I See

The problems with this system are not dissimilar from those in other earlier systems of using free giveaways to build a list. . You first must be able to get your video in front of an audience and in order for them to subscribe, and they in turn must have an audience to subscribe in order for the system to work effectively. It can probably be most effectively used by someone who already has a subscriber list and wants to expand it rapidly.

Another potential negative is that the the new contacts you generate with this list, both directly and indirectly, are not yet buyers and it’s likely that many of them will have no interest in your particular marketing niche. Proper strategy of course is to build credibility over time through a series of value adding free offers that are designed to help categorize their interests. Only then should you move on to the stage of offering them the opportunity to buy your stuff.

This new easy video producer software system appears to offer a simple and easy, no cost way for the experienced, and particularly the relatively inexperienced non-technical networker to make effective use of videos for viral list building, and business promotion.

How to Become Wealthy in Network Marketing - Secrets to MLM Success

2009-12-08T22:51:00.002-05:00

This is a simple overview of what it will take if you want to become wealth from your network marketing opportunity.

How to Become Wealthy in Network Marketing - Secrets to MLM Success

#1- Put 90% of your focus on marketing and sales. There are lots of little details you can get bogged down in when it comes to growing a lucrative home business. The sad truth is that most business owners put their focus on tasks that don't make them money. What does make money? Marketing, prospecting and selling. This is where your focus needs to be if you want to make money. If you are ever confused about where to put your energy, always come back to the question, 'is the task at hand directly related to making money for my business?' If the answer is no, then it's likely not a top priority.

#2-Learn Attraction Marketing- For over 90% of the network marketers in the world, their only real hope for becoming financially free is through attraction marketing. Most home business owners are not very interested in getting out of their comfort zone and pitching their business opportunity to friends, family and strangers. They aren't very keen on cold calling leads they have purchased from the internet.

Attraction marketing is a process of using web 2.0 technology to position yourself as an expert which attracts ideal prospects to you. You set yourself up as a trusted leader who can help other networkers succeed. When people sense that you are a 'go to' professional in the indsustry, many of them will want to join you in your opportunity. On the front end, you offer them resources and tools to grow their business. You earn commissions by being an affiliate on the front end of your prospecting, then you recruit them into your organization on the back end to create residual income.

Attraction marketing is an incredibly effective way to effortlessly magnetize to you. Most of the 7 figure earners in the industry are using this approach. (See http://www.brandingsuperstar.com/ )

#3-Create an online marketing process that you stick with consistently. This process should include blogging, article marketing, PPC, video marketing, twitter, facebook, and social bookmarking. This process puts you in front of literally millions of prospects from around the world. If you want to become wealthy through network marketing, you'll need to generate at least 50 leads per day which will take a combination of various marketing strategies. If you are generating 50 leads per day and you are doing attraction marketing, you should be making a solid 6 figure income through both affiliate marketing and through your primary company.

This is the blueprint for creating true success and financial freedom in the MLM industry. Focus on your marketing, position yourself as a leader, and stick with the same marketing process every day until you hit your goals.

I also encourage you to check out the attraction marketing system I use that offers a ton of free online network marketing training.

Business Growth Seminar using Social Networking sites such as Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter

2009-09-18T01:13:00.004-04:00

Don’t Let Your Profits Lag Behind…

“Discover How To Skyrocket Your Business Growth With Social Networking Sites Such As Facebook, Linkedin, and Twitter”

Dear Friend,
If you want to join thousands of internet entrepreneurs and skyrocket your profits online by mastering the most popular Social Networking sites like Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter, then this is by far the most important letter you’ll ever read.

Here’s how:

You’ve probably noticed the world is quickly changing from the industrial to the technical industry. This means people are moving from manufacturing work, which was popular throughout 1990’s, to the ever-growing world of the internet.

Why? Because the internet is the largest market place in the world, with billions of buyers and sellers all coming together to exchange goods and services for cold-hard cash. And, if you’re not capitalizing on the internet… you will be left behind!

How Much Money Can Be Made Online?

Well, let's just say the opportunities are… unlimited. The reason why the ability to grow your business online is so profitable is because the only thing an online business owner has to do is place their products or services in areas where your most targeted network of customers hang out.

And, when you constantly market to a group of targeted buyers, your profits will start rolling in like… clockwork!

And, when you constantly market to a group of targeted buyers, your profits will start rolling in like… clockwork!

Where Do Targeted Buyers Hang Out?

People interested in what you’ve got to offer search the search engines ones like Google, Bing, Yahoo in addition to you can usually find them on Social Networking sites. In the online world, Social Networking is the way users build online networks of contacts and interact with these personal or business friends in a secured environment. Some of the most popular Social Networking sites include Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter and MySpace.

The secret behind making Social Networking a beneficial source for any business is to become proficient at the technical side of how these platforms work, so you can build the MOST business connections in the LEAST amount of time. And, when you establish a nice list, you’ll be able to promote to them like crazy.

When we tell people about the unlimited possibilities available on from using Social Networking sites, to grow a business their eyes grow wide. What we also noticed was that their confidence soon faltered. The main reason is because people don't have a clue as to how to make the Social Networking sites work for them. Inorder to grow your online and offline business you need to have a presence in the Social Networking world.

That’s why we at Tech Club CPR have come together to help individuals, just like you, with dreams of finding financial freedom via the internet. To get to know us better, here’s a small intro on all the instructors of the program.

Ralph Claxton - Technology Coach, Broadcast Text Owner

As a real estate investor, Ralph started his own empire that made a huge transition to the internet world where Ralph became a coach. He saw that many of the programs out there lacked the ability to show people the technical side of how to make money online.

After making this discovery, Ralph dug deeper and created a product that taught online business strategies from the beginning, using technical skills and teaching his students profitable, inside techniques, in simple, laymen terms.

When he started out in internet marketing, Ralph discovered his own problems.

“I was having challenges finding how to implement certain technical parts of setting up my blog and website , and I noticed other folks were having the same problem too. I started looking for how to videos that show me what to do, and there weren't many. So, I began to make recordings and video recordings on the things that I learned how to do and stored them on my computer. When people would ask me how to do this or how to do that, I would send them that recording to teach them what I learned, and then I got to thinking that this needs to be bigger!”

This is what sparked Ralph’s passion to coach and share with the world, through the internet. "He's often said "the internet has evened the playing field when it comes to making that making money".

The reason why our price is so low is because our passion is to help other business owners grow and succeed. And, when you become a success, we are a success.

But, before moving forward and passing this information to your friends, we must stress that this offer is limited to only 25 seats. We like small sessions because it gives you a more “personal” training feel. So, unfortunately, after the 25th’seat is taken, this offer will close.

You must hurry and take action because there are now only 17 seats left.

You see, we made the mistake of promoting this seminar much sooner than we were able to complete everything. So, we had people lined up to order. Our phone was ringing off the hook for weeks, so we went ahead and let a few people preorder, but we weren’t prepared for such a huge turn out.

We are trying to hold on to spots for people who order through this sales letter.

The reason why we didn’t make more seats available is because we wanted the presentation to be exclusive to only those serious about making big leaps in their online business. Why only serious business owners and entrepreneurs?

Because, in this terrible economic state, they’re the ones who know that they need all the valuable information they can get to ensure their business continues to thrive and take action when something of value comes along.

Body Magic: Get rich, get thin -- or get real?
By Jessica Ravitz
CNN

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- The company name flashed and swirled around the darkened convention hall as the music began to pump.

"Money money money money, money! Money money money money, money!"

A man dressed in designer duds strutted across the stage to the tune of The O'Jays' 1970s hit, now the theme song for "The Apprentice."

"If you want to get paid, you've got to get up on your feet," he called out. "They say money doesn't grow on trees. Well, I've got a money tree in my backyard, and Ardyss planted it there!"

With that the faithful rose and hollered, the applause crescendoed, and the smiles - and dreams - spread wide. See how the sales pitch works »www.youtube.com/pamperry1

Few issues pique public interest more than opportunities to make money and achieve beauty. The estimated 3,000 people from around the country who streamed into the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta in early August were a testament to that.

They came to rally around Ardyss International, a Las Vegas, Nevada-based direct sales company that makes a fortune off undergarments.

Body Magic, the company's flagship girdle-and-corset combo, which retails for $140 plus tax and shipping, can "bring your butt back to high school fine," the man on stage announced.

You can wear it and get thin, the claims go, or you can sell it and get rich.
The company's other products include the Angel Bra, Panty Reshaper, undergarments for men, nutritional supplements and skin-care items.

Think Mary Kay cosmetics. That's the kind of multilevel or network marketing model on which Ardyss is based. Distributors can make money through sales. But they can make even more from profit cuts and bonuses that float to the top if they recruit other distributors, who in turn recruit other distributors, and so on and so on.

"I've only been involved for two months, and I have a check with a comma in it," said Robbyn Washington of Snellville, Georgia.

While many such companies are legitimate, others smack of pyramid schemes, prompting legal disputes and investigations by consumer protection agencies such as the Federal Trade Commission.

The FTC has no complaints about Ardyss International on file. But the Better Business Bureau, with which Ardyss is not accredited, has given the company an F rating, saying 16 complaints over the past 36 months have gone unanswered. An Ardyss executive and spokesman, Mike Potillo, told CNN the company wasn't aware of these complaints and would be in touch with the BBB to clear this up.

As is the case with all multilevel marketing ventures, no matter what they're selling, experts say consumers and prospective distributors should proceed with caution.

'Say whatever you want'

The Body Magic motto is emblazoned on T-shirts, pins and bumper stickers: "Drop 3 sizes in 10 minutes."

Proponents say it can create hourglass curves, shaving off inches and weight permanently.

"Every eight seconds a woman looks in the mirror and wants to be smaller," said Dorothy Cook, who's often credited for making the business, founded in Mexico, a multilevel marketing hit in the United States. "Once you wear it and take it off, you lose inches. Every woman must have one."

Sonja King, 38, did not attend the convention but said she's worn her Body Magic about four days a week for the past two months. The Atlanta-area woman said she has seen results but wonders whether it's because she can barely eat when she wears it.

"It's not comfortable," she said with a laugh. "But I had to go to a formal affair recently, and that Body Magic came in handy. I was slammin' in that dress!"

Beyond looking good, distributors raved about improved posture, a claim that left chiropractor Robert Hayden uneasy. The Griffin, Georgia, man, who hadn't examined the garment, said he's seen the atrophied muscles of those who've relied too much on simple lumbar support belts.

"The muscles that hold you erect will have no need to work," if worn with regularity, he said. "They'll go to mush."

More striking, however, were the medical claims distributors made about Ardyss garments and Le' Vive, the company's top-selling nutritional product.

They ascribed restored bladder control and diverted surgeries to Body Magic. One distributor lifted her blouse to reveal not only the über-girdle but also her Angel Bra, which she said can protect a woman from breast cancer. Many thanked Body Magic for putting their organs "back in place."

The stories passed around of those saved by Le' Vive, a drink said to be rich in antioxidants, included tales about warding off diabetes and arthritis. But distributors also said a woman was cured of Bell's palsy. Another, they said, had Lupus, was given six months to live and is now in remission. And then there was the unnamed blind man who distributors claimed began to see.

"Someone said that to you?" asked an audibly stunned Potillo, the Ardyss executive who oversees the American market.

In a written response sent later, Potillo said the company "makes no health claims, medical claims or any type of claims on any of our products in any way. ... If someone has made a claim on one of our products, we have internal policies and procedures in place to deal with that."

The issue of distributors saying what they shouldn't is one of the biggest challenges in multilevel or network marketing operations, said Peter Mingils, president of the Distributor Rights Association, a Texas-based nonprofit that works on behalf of multilevel marketers.

"Even though you're an independent contractor, it doesn't mean you can say whatever you want," he said.* (SEE ARTICLE BELOW)

It's this enthusiasm, however, that drives the company's success, said Clark Howard, the HLN money expert.

"If people really believe in it themselves, and they go out and convince others, then that is in itself a legitimate multilevel" marketing business, he said. "If people are making false promises about a product or service, then that comes out in the wash."

The hope, the dream

Antonio Díaz de León, the Ardyss founder and president, walked into the convention center where he and his family were treated like rock stars, eliciting gasps as cell phone cameras came out.

In the past six months the business has grown by 600 percent and 100,000 active distributors, Díaz de León, a native of Mexico, said through a translator.
"We've changed many lives," he said. "Families are getting financial freedom."

In times of recession, interest in these kinds of business opportunities spikes, Howard, the HLN money expert, said.

"It doesn't matter what the product is, what the service is, you always have the same thing: People talking about the hope, the dream and the money," he said.

Dorothy Cook, draped in jewelry, wouldn't say how much she earns. At last count, though, she claimed she had nearly 80,000 distributors in her downline. Another "platinum president," the highest level that can be achieved in this business where everyone has a title, said thanks to her downline of 15,000 distributors, she is bringing home more than $55,000 a month. One can only only assume Cook, nicknamed "The Godmother," makes more.

"All you have to do is get here, and God will do the rest," she told a group at the convention.

But Potillo, of Ardyss, which includes about 140,000 active distributors, said it's not that easy and called Cook's earnings "an extraordinary experience, not the norm."

Tempered with reality

To become a distributor, people are encouraged to buy a starter kit for $299.
"If you have to borrow the money, do what it takes," Donna Bingham told a group that gathered recently in an Alpharetta, Georgia, home. "The only way [the business] doesn't work is if you don't work."

That line of encouragement made law professor Stephen Calkins wary.
"Anytime you're asked to part with hard-earned money in order to ask other people to part with hard-earned money, you should be very nervous," said Calkins of Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. He served for several years as the general counsel for the FTC during the Clinton Administration.

Calkins suggested any prospective multilevel distributor consult tip sheets to analyze the credibility of a company first. The FTC has a consumer alert, as does the Direct Selling Association.

Excitement about these opportunities needs to be tempered with reality, Howard said. While the "pep rally" may make people think they're all in line to make $20,000 a month, he said that's not how these businesses play out.

"There will always be a small number of people who hit grand slam homeruns virtually every day. But most everybody else will make little or nothing, and usually many will actually lose," he said. "Don't believe it's paved in gold. There are a lot of speed bumps and a lot of dead ends."

Five things to do to BRAND your best life & be a success in YOUR Network Marketing Business by Pam Perry

Own your dreams. Walk by faith. Live the abundant life.
It's time to be bold and get that "water walking" faith.

Don't stay stuck in a rut. Move to the next level & be a success by doing these following five things:

1. Listen and do what your mentors say. It could be a personal mentor or a business mentor. You can also get advice and instruction from your pastor or by reading an inspirational book. Authors provide a wealth of information - and Christian authors may be the vehicles God uses to get information to you.

2. Be teachable. You can learn from everyone. Never get too haughty to receive from others. The more you are willing to learn - the more people will share with you. If you seem like a know-it-all, you will be left out of key conversations and events that could change your life. Always be willing to build a bridge and tear down a wall. Don't limit God - He's trying to get the best to you. Stop resisting the better life.

3. Write your Vision. Keep a journal and make it your best friend. Most successful people record their ideas, thoughts and plans. Post your goals up and visualize your future by cutting out photos that are what you see in your future. You will gravitate towards your most dominant thoughts and images that are kept in front of you. The more details you write of your vision - the more likely you will experience the manifestation.

4. Stay free of jealousy. Don't be a hater. If someone has what you've desired to - celebrate him or her. If someone is doing what you'd like to do - offer your support. Don't hate, celebrate. What you make happen for others, God will make happen for you. Those who you celebrate you will duplicate. Success breeds success.

5. Keep your word. The faithful man will abound in blessings. Stay committed to the promises you make to yourself. Don't over promise or create unrealistic expectations - make progress by sticking to your plan and working your plan. Being consistent and dependable are God-like qualities that lead you to where you want to go. Remember that the race is not necessarily won by the swift but by those who endure until the end.

Stay in it to win it!

"All you have to do is get here, and God will do the rest," she told a group at the convention.
