The ANSWER to Saving the Airline Industry!!

June 30th, 2008 · No Comments

Good morning! Ok, if you are reading the blog today to glean some special insight into internet marketing, or learn how you can earn a full-time income with MyInternetBusiness, then I am afraid you are in for a disappointment. BUT, if you are in need of a good chuckle, then you’ve come to the right place!

A friend sent this to me, and I just had to share it.

HOW to SAVE the AIRLINE INDUSTRY

Dump the male flight attendants. No one wanted them in the first place.

Replace all the female flight attendants with good-looking strippers! What the hell — they don’t even serve food anymore, so what’s the loss?

The strippers would at least triple the alcohol sales and get a ‘party atmosphere’ going in the cabin. And, of course, every businessman in this country would start flying again, hoping to see naked women.

Because of the tips, female flight attendants wouldn’t need a salary, thus saving even more money. I suspect tips would be so good that we could charge the women for working the plane and have them kick back 20% of the tips, including lap dances and ’special services’.

Terrorists would be afraid to get on the planes for fear of seeing naked women. Hijackings would come to a screeching halt, and the airline industry would see record revenues.

This is definitely a win-win situation if we handle it right — a golden opportunity to turn a liability into an asset.

Hope that brightened your morning!

Got an Idea…Summer Contest for MyInternetBusiness!

June 29th, 2008 · No Comments

Well, no great insights or revelations into the secrets of internet marketing to reveal today…instead, I just want to talk about the idea that struck me! I’m going to have a special MyInternetBusiness CONTEST for all of my prospects…here it is!

I’m going to take a funny picture of my son, send it out to all MyInternetBusiness prospects, and announce that the contest is to come up with the best and funniest CAPTION for the picture!

There will be SERIOUS prizes…as of right now, here is what I am thinking:

3rd Place: I will write and publish for you a professional Press Release about your new business!
2nd Place: One paid signup for MyInternetBusiness–I will make a sale and direct that sale to signup at YOUR website!
1st Place: TWO paid signups for MyInternetBusiness–if you join as a Platinum member, this could be $4,000!

The winners will have some powerful incentives for joining My Internet Business right away…since I’ll actually be placing PAID members in their downline!

This contest will have the dual-purpose of 1) getting members to join MyInternetBusiness.com to take advantage of those powerful prizes and 2) Amusing me to see what captions people come up with!

Of course the challenge is that I need to find a good picture for it…and my wife forgot the camera when we went to the beach today.

But when this summer contest for MyInternetBusiness DOES finally launch…well, it’s gonna be cool, to say the least!

Why a Good Autoresopnder is Critical for Your Internet Business

June 27th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Perhaps you are an associate of Passport to Wealth…perhaps Abunza…perhaps MyInternetBusiness.

Or maybe you are just into affiliate marketing, or MLM. No matter what online venture you may be involved with, you NEED a reliable way to reach out to your customers, prospects, and team members with fresh information and promotions.

Why? Because, in the words of Jim Rohn, ‘There are pennies in the sale and a fortune in the followup.’

You may have a customer who bought a digital product from you, for $7. If you get him into your autoresponder, than in the future, you might turn him into an associate for MyInternetBusiness and put $2000 in your pocket!

Internet marketing studies show that most online consumers will not buy until they have seen an offer 5-7 times. And this doesn’t mean that they will automatically buy at that point, either. But after seeing your proposal 5-7 times, that is when they are MOST LIKELY to be receptive to a personal invitation.

That makes this an ideal time to follow up with the customer by phone, or have your sales assistant do it for you, if you have that luxury :-)

When you have an autoresponder, hooked in to a good lead capture page, your visitors will opt-in, giving you permission to contact them in the future, and be automatically redirected to your main presentation…be it a powerful video tour, like in MyInternetBusiness, or a strong sales letter, etc. At the same time, the opt-in form will add them to your email list in your autoresponder, which will immediately send them your first follow-up sales letter, than the rest of your messages over the course of the next month or so.

Why is this so crucial? Well, let’s examine what happens if you DON’T have an autoresponder…the visitor who finds your site will be taken right to your tour. Very few prospects are ready to whip out their credit cards and buy right there and then…after seeing as much as they want to see, they’ll hit that red X to close their browser, meaning to return, except they won’t be able to find YOUR website again if they want to…no, more likely, they will find someone ELSE’s website and join the business with them, instead of you…even though you did the work!

Kinda sucks, eh? That’s why you need to have automated followup letters going out to them and presenting clear Calls to Action, with the link back to your main site readily available.

But I’ve got my COMPANY autoresponder, why do I need one of my own?

Although it’s nice to have a company autoresponder, you give up all the CONTROL…you can’t send personal broadcasts, which is really the Holy Grail of internet marketing. You should be able to send whatever message you want to your mailing list, whenever you want, and you can’t do that with a company autoresponder. You also can’t tweak or adjust the sales letters, or use your own…and finally, you usually can’t import your own leads

Bottom line…you need your own autoresponder for your internet business…my internet business…any internet business! It only costs like 19 bux a month, and will pay big big dividends as you market to your network again and again.

I hope you all enjoy your weekend as much as I’m going to,

Rob Hunter

P.S. My personal favorite autoresponder service is Aweber. It is so incredibly easy to use, has the best deliverability in the industry (because they are so anal about making everyone follow safe email rules), and again, for $19 a month, you won’t get this value anywhere else.

MyInternetBusiness: Insider Review from Rob Hunter

June 23rd, 2008 · No Comments

A lot of people send in testimonials of their success in home based business. And for the many people who are agonizing over the decision to bite the bullet and invest their money in what will hopefully become a full-time source of income, these testimonials are a much-needed encouragement. They assist aspiring entrepreneurs in convincing their head what they know in their heart to be the best course of action.

Yes, money is tight for 99% of families in America, and it takes a lot of courage to start an internet business. People are watching the cost of gas and food skyrocket, while seeing their own wages level off or disappear due to the massive streak of layoffs and downsizing that companies across the country are undergoing…largely for the same problems of increasing costs!

I have been enjoying incredible success with MyInternetBusiness, and to give those families out there the hope and encouragement they need, I have created my own testimonial. Here it is:

With MyInternetBusiness, founder Darren Gaudry really has given us all the tools we need to create that second income that will allow us to maintain and IMPROVE our quality of life. Between the most highly-demanded products and softwares, and a training system that literally allows ANYONE to make profits (if they put the effort in!), MyInternetBusiness is the work at home opportunity of choice for complete novices and veteran internet marketers alike.

Darren Gaudry to Retire from MyInternetBusiness!

June 21st, 2008 · 2 Comments

Yes, it struck all of us as a surprise, I think. Darren Gaudry, the lovable Aussie internet marketing wizard who made lots of people wealthy through Passport to Wealth and MyInternetBusiness, is retiring from his position as the CEO of My Internet Business.

I have to say, I sure am glad that Darren stayed around to give us a profit-generating legitimate business as amazing as MyInternetBusiness. I mean, Darren Gaudry said it himself, he could have retired years ago. He didn’t need money from Passport to Wealth or MyInternetBusiness; he created them to help folks like US earn serious money online and enjoy the same financial independence that he has created for himself.

So is it a negative thing for MyInternetBusiness.com that Darren Gaudry has resigned? No. He has his own responsibilities, and as he said, ‘the show must go on’. So if you are a new associate, don’t feel like Darren has left you…everytime you make a sale or use the back office or send a prospect to the video presentation, there is Darren’s legacy making money for you.

This blog post is a small tribute to the man who has inspired me as an internet marketer, and he knows that I wish him the very best in life.

MyInternetBusiness Training: Get On the Front Page of Google for Free!

June 20th, 2008 · 5 Comments

Many internet marketers quest for that Holy Grail: first-page placement on search engines for their websites. Some spend thousands on shady SEO companies, others blow large sums of money on Pay-per-click.

One of my focuses as a MyInternetBusiness team leader is teaching my associates how to get on the front page themselves…for free or cheap. Pay-per-click is OK, but showing up in the actual search results, which is known as organic traffic, is SOOOO much better.

Prospects who find My Internet Business through a Google search are some of the highest-quality prospects, who have the best conversion rates into sales.

Why?

Because they were actively LOOKING for more information about MyInternetBusiness…and they found your site, decided they liked what they saw, and opted in to learn more! From there, you can bet they eagerly watched Darren Gaudry’s video tour, and now are just waiting for that personal followup touch to help them decide whether or not they want to buy in.

‘OK, Rob, I GET IT ALREADY, I want to be on page 1 of Google!’

Heheh, all right, let’s hop to it then. I hope you are ready to do some serious WRITING.

That’s right…you need two key things to successfully perform Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing:

1) High-Quality Content Relative To Your Keywords
If you want to get ranked for the keyword, MyInternetBusiness, than your site should contain information about MyInternetBusiness, not about basket weaving. Savvy? Design your site to be USER-FRIENDLY…many internet marketers make the mistake of designing their sites to be SPIDER-FRIENDLY, in the hopes that the search engine spiders will give them special treatment. This is a mistake and can lead to sacrificing quality of site content, which should never be done.

Create your site for your visitors, and the search engine spiders will fall into line.

2) GOT GREAT CONTENT? Now it’s time to focus on building HIGH QUALITY BACKLINKS, to Topically-Relevent Sites.
At first, most of your backlinks will come from your other sites…which is fine. That is why we do

  • Blogging
  • Squidoo
  • Press Releases
  • Video Marketing
  • Article Marketing
  • Social Bookmarking
  • CraigsList
  • All of the above are Web 2.0 marketing methods with user-driven content…in other words, all of the content on these websites comes from users like us. For example, we submit our videos to Youtube, our Articles to Ezinearticles.com (they are a super pain in the ass about approving articles, but well-worth it), our bookmarks to Digg, and our press releases to Webwire.

    In every single one of these marketing instruments, you should have great-quality content about MyInternetBusiness, what it is and what it offers, AND…

    …EMBEDDED links to a few of your other sites! I.e. a blog entry should link to your capture page, your Squidoo site, and your press release, perhaps. Your Squidoo should link to all of the above and your blog. Your press release should link to your capture page, blog and Squidoo.

    What you are doing here is spinning a web of inter-connecting websites, all of which strengthen each other and boost your rankings. Many of these will achieve high search engine ranking on their own; for example, my press release, Groundbreaking News About Darren Gaudry’s MyInternetBusiness.Com has been sitting pretty on page 1 of Google AND Yahoo for some time now!

    So in closing, build a great website that is user-friendly and has valuable information about My Internet Business. Then build lots of high-quality backlinks through various Web 2.0 marketing methods that you can learn about in the MyInternetBusiness and Mentors 4 U back offices.

    I’m looking forward to seeing you on the front page!

    Here’s to less money for the car insurance company and more money for your advertising budget!

    Tips for Saving Money on Car Insurance
    by: Ray Shelton
    Car insurance is required by all licensed drivers but many of them don’t know how to find the best rates available. Being complacent and purchasing car insurance without carefully investigating your options or maintaining the same car insurance for the remainder of your life could mean that you are paying too much for your car insurance. Comparison shopping, ensuring that you are receiving all the discounts you qualify for and maintaining a clean driving record are just a few of the money saving tips that can save you a fortune on car insurance.

    Comparison shopping for car insurance, even after you are already insured, cannot be underestimated. It is critical that you investigate all of your options before choosing an insurance provider to ensure that you are getting the best possible rate on your car insurance. There are so many factors considered in car insurance policies such as where you live, your driving record, your age and the type of car you drive just to name a few. With all of these factors to consider, it is very possible that you will find that there is a car insurance provider who will offer you a considerably lower rate than other providers.

    Even after you have secured insurance for your car, it is wise to periodically check the rates that other providers will offer you. Car insurance as well as your circumstances are perpetually changing and you may find that the provider who is willing to offer you the best car insurance rate varies periodically. Many car insurance providers offer a host of discounts to their clients who qualify for these discounts. These discounts can relate to your driving record, safety features of your car, your age or other factors.

    These discounts can result in a tremendous cost savings on your car insurance policy but while many insurance providers offer these discounts, they don’t always advertise them. This means that you may have to do research to determine what type of discounts you may qualify to receive. Carefully, review your car insurance policy to determine which discounts you are already receiving and then contact your car insurance provider to inquire about other discounts that may be available. For example if your driving record is devoid of accidents or tickets, you may qualify for a good driver discount.

    Also, if your car has certain safety features such as daytime running lights, you may also qualify for car insurance discounts. Your age can also qualify you for certain car insurance discounts. Some insurance providers also offer discounts to those who insure their house with the same company as they insure their car. Taking advantage of this type of discount can save you money on both your car and home insurance. Being aware of the discounts that are available and ensuring that you are receiving these discounts, can save you a great deal of money on your car insurance.

    Finally, maintaining a clean driving record is very important to receiving the best available car insurance rate. While it is true that each car insurance provider is unique in the factors that contribute to lower rates, the one factor that is consistent among all providers of car insurance is that a clean driving record is critical to your rate. Although accidents are sometimes unavoidable, it is imperative that you adhere to all traffic regulations and that you drive safely at all times. This will reduce the number of traffic violations that you incur as well as the number of accidents that you cause. Following these tips will help you to maintain a clean driving record that will keep the cost of your car insurance low.

    Many drivers lament paying their monthly car insurance bill because they feel as though the insurance isn’t necessary. Although car insurance is a financial burden that seems superfluous, it does pay off if you are ever in a serious car accident that has significant financial ramifications. For this reason, you should never consider allowing your car insurance to lapse and it is recommended that you search diligently to find the best available rate on your car insurance.

    Home Business: ‘The Secret’ to Attracting the Winners to Join Your Business

    June 17th, 2008 · 1 Comment

    With a home business, the quest for the Holy Grail is how to attract successful entrepreneurs who will join your business and earn a passive income for you. How do you do this?

    That is the million-dollar question, and the ability to get your presentation in front of the winners, versus the whiners, will make or break your home business. You’d think it would be easy…after all, who doesn’t want to work at home and earn money online?

    It’s true that lots of people want to earn money online but very few of them want to actually do any work…here I allow myself a professional ‘LOL’…and of those who are willing to do work, even fewer have the money to invest in their home business.

    Attraction Marketing is an esoteric and secret concept that focuses on the exact OPPOSITE of traditional home business and network marketing teachings. You are NOT going out there trying to beat people’s doors down getting them to join your business. You are not calling leads in the hopes that they might go to your website.

    Nay, instead you are simply positioning yourself as an expert who has exactly what these aspiring home business owners are searching for: a high-paying work at home opportunity with a system that they can duplicate. Create a journey and obstacles that your prospects must undergo to reach you:

    1) A lead capture page that shows the power and majesty of MyInternetBusiness , or whatever home business you are promoting. But for the lead to get the full details, make them opt-in with their name, email address and optional phone number.

    2) Autoresponder series that puts forth a ‘Call to Action’ for the lead to further qualify themself, such as a link to request a callback or view a certain portion of the MyInternetBusiness tour.

    3) Write articles on the various techniques and aspects of internet marketing, particularly advanced Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing techniques. Training in these strategies is in HIGH DEMAND, and you acn easily position yourself as an expert by offering tantalizing glimpses of the knowledge you have gained through MyInternetBusiness…and directing your readers to your capture page to receive your FULL training!

    Why on earth would you want to make it so hard for your prospects to reach you? Simply put, it weeds out the whiners from the winners. If someone can’t even invest the time to request more information or look over a certain video, do you really think that they will put in the effort to makes sales when they actually JOIN your home business?

    I don’t think so either. So every step you make your prospects take qualifies them further, in the hopes that they may one day receive a phone call from you, the home business guru, to be considered to have a chance to join your home business!

    The ones who are serious will seek you out, and you won’t be wasting your time on the losers who never do anything.

    To your success in attracting the winners to your Home Business!

    NanoTech eeFuel Review: Does this Fuel Enhancer Work?

    June 16th, 2008 · 20 Comments

    Like me, you are probably sick and tired of
    eeFuel lowers gas costs
    THAT. I’m probably worse off, since my BMW only takes premium, and that is 20-40 cents more expensive per gallon! When I first heard about NanoTech eeFuel, I was a little leery about putting it into my precious high-performance vehicle…and when it claimed that I could use REGULAR octane gasoline in conjunction with eeFuel, I was definitely hesitant.

    But I did some research, and it seemed to be a proven and tested product, and I also saw that there were other fuel enhancers that let you use regular instead of premium. eeFuel’s big appeal is that it is an environmentally-friendly fuel enhancer that reduces emissions by 50%, transforms regular gasoline into high-performance, reduces need for engine maintenance, and increases gas mileage by an average of 18%.

    Or so the studies claim…but we all know that studies say whatever the organization who hired the consultants tell them to say. Nonetheless, I decided to go with my gut and try out this NanoTech eeFuel.

    A week later my eeFuel arrived in the mail. I had purchased two bottles as part of a pre-launch promotion. I was astonished at how tiny the bottles are! I mean, they look like the size of a beer bottle in the picture
    NanoTech eeFuel fuel additive
    But in reality, you could fit the bottle in your pocket! Not that you’d want to, since it is filled with fuel additive…but anyway, this tiny little bottle actually contains TEN applications. The bottle is 120 mL, and you mix 12 mL per 15 gallons of gasoline. It also comes with a helpful ’scoresheet’ for tracking your gas mileage before and after each usage…that way you can see right away how much you are saving.

    Last Tuesday I filled up at the pump, with REGULAR octane gas. The difference between regular and premium was 30 cents per gallon.
    15 gallon tank x .30 per gallon=$4.5 in savings per gas-up. Well, that may not be a lot of money by itself. But, consider that there are 10 usages per bottle of eeFuel, and it only costs $27 for a bottle, and you are going to save $45 just in the difference between fuel types.

    Assuming that your vehicle normally takes premium, that is. So anyway, the eeFuel bottle kind of measures itself for how much you need to dispense, and you just insert it into your fuel tank just like the gas nozzle. You want to put the eeFuel in first, then gas up, so that it will mix best.

    As I was driving along afterwards, I wasn’t really sure what to expect. If I heard bumping or scraping, then I would know that my engine didn’t like the regular octane and that the eeFuel wasn’t really transforming it into high-performance fuel.

    But I didn’t…in fact, my BMW was actually driving even MORE smoothly than before!! It’s been a week since, and the car has just continued to drive great. So it seems that NanoTech eeFuel lives up to that part of its claim!

    But what about the gas mileage? Well, normally my vehicle gets 28 miles to the gallon. When I’d gone through 2 gallons, according to the gas gauge, I checked the odomoter…and I had travelled 70 miles since I filled up at the tank!

    That’s 35 miles per gallon, an increase of 7 mpg, or 25%!! That’s even better than the 18% eeFuel had claimed as the average. So if my fuel efficiency INCREASED by 25%, that is the same as if gas prices had DECREASED by 25%…so paying $4.00 per gallon for gas gets me 25% more, so it’s actually like I’m paying $3.00 per gallon for gas!!

    And consider that this gas purchase was a business expense, a product test that is ordinary and reasonable in the course of determining whether or not NanoTech eeFuel is a good product to add to my business. So shave off 30% as a tax-deductive expense, and that tank of gas had a net cost to me of $2.10 per gallon, or $31.5.

    Not bad!!

    All in all, I am very pleased and impressed with the eeFuel’s performance. It has improved the peformance of my vehicle, let me save 30 cents per gallon by purchasing lower octane gas, AND improved my gas mileage by 25%. Considering that the cost of eeFuel is just $2.70 per tank of gas, I think this is a damn good product!

    Check this link if you’d also like to get YOUR hands on some NanoTech eeFuel!

    Best regards,

    Rob Hunter
