Website Traffic…Why You Want It, What Kind to Strive for, and How to Get It!

In the offline world, the big thing is and has always been 3 words for success…location, location, location.  Remember hearing that?

Well online theirs is no location.  Your website is floating around somewhere in cyberspace, and so to get people to come to you, you must do the things necessary to either direct them to you, or to get in front of where they are looking in the first place for the information that you’re providing.

Of course, the best place to be is always where they’re looking in the first place right?  This way you don’t have to be chasing…you are actually right where they’re looking. Essentially, you’re being chased.

It’s common sense to think that the more traffic/visitors that you get to your website, the better your chances are for success.  That is mostly true, but the thing that you really want to focus on is getting targeted visitors to your sites.  In other words, you want the people who are most likely to purchase your products, or join your opportunities.  So, in other words, massive traffic is nice, but laser focused targeted trafficis even better. I’d much rather have 2,000 people who are looking to join a network marketing opportunity come to my sites than people looking for a networking solution for their companies computer system.  See the difference?

The key to getting targeted traffic is by use of keywords.  Keyword research is key to getting pinpoint targeted visitors to your site.  It’s like the difference between having a taco stand on a glacier in Alaska, or a taco stand on the highly trafficked corner of Sunset and Vine in Hollywood, CA.  Where do you think you’d sell more tacos?   That is unless Eskimos and polar bears eat tacos I guess.  But you get the point.

There are two primary ways to get traffic online.  Free or Paid.  That’s the main breakdown, but it goes even further than that.  With paid search there is PPC (pay-per-click) traffic , there are banner ads, you can pay to simply place your ad on someone else’s website, there are ezine ads, solo-ads in ezines, co-registration, lead buying, etc.  Of those pay per click is definitely the most popular and widely used, and when used correctly most effective.

Of course free traffic is the best that there is in most people’s minds, especially if you’re just starting out. (There are those in the PPC world who would disagree with that notion though since they’re having huge great success with paid traffic).

Free types of traffic include SEO traffic (search engine traffic), article marketing, traffic from signature files in forum posts, blog posts, and other places where you’re allowed to make comments, there’s social networking traffic, and then there’s also Joint venture and affiliate traffic (assuming that you have your own product with an affiliate program of course).

Of those the one to strive for is definitely SEO traffic, but this takes time to put into place, and depends on a well optimized website in most cases.  Yet, the time that you spend can be well worth it in the long run considering that when someone goes to a search engine such as Google (the biggest there is with about 65% of all search traffic), and they type in the keyword or search phrase that you’re listed under, they  are distinctly looking for exactly what you’ve got.  That’s the ultimate way to get yourself right in front of them.

Regardless of which type you use, paid or free, the key is that you want targeted searchers coming to your sites.  Using the right keywords again is how you do that.  There are a number of tools out on the market for you to use to do keyword research, with probably the best being Google’s own keyword tool.

There’s not enough space here for me to write all that entails when it comes to website traffic, but hopefully this article has given you a more clear idea on the type of traffic that YOU want to aim for, and that fits your monetary and time budget best right now.

No matter what, the more you learn about getting targeted traffic to your website, the greater your chances are for massive success.

Duplication: The Foundation of Success in Network Marketing…

You’ve probably heard the term duplication thrown around a ton of times if you’re involved with, or have looked into network marketing.  It’s a term that’s used very loosely, but has such importance that’s it’s almost scary that it’s not solidified even more-so within the industry.

Duplication in network marketing
is basically the foundation of any hope for success, and definitely any hope of the passive residual income that we’re all so intent on earning.  In case you didn’t know by the way, that’s why you’re in network marketing, for the passive residual income.

But, the fact is that the main obstacle that stands in your way of passive income versus simply exchanging time for money is duplication.  Or more definitively, helping your downline duplicate your efforts and success, in order to build their organization, which therefore increases your income.

You see, without your downline growing their business, your business doesn’t grow like it’s supposed to, no matter what compensation plan your opportunity operates under.

This is the magic of the system, but can also be the doom of the system as well.  The reason, because most of the time in network marketing, it’s like the blind is leading the blind.  Upline sponsors who have no clue what they’re doing, usually because either their upline has no clue, or because they don’t listen to their upline and proceed in the duplication process. In other words, they’re trying to re-invent the wheel.

Now sometimes re-inventing the wheel is a good thing and new ways of recruiting are discovered, but if you’re new to the business, then to build quickly and hugely, you need to duplicate the efforts of your upline.  And as touched on, you need to look upline from them and be sure that they’re actually doing the same.  It’s a process that once broken, often means the end of an organization.

The best way to ensure duplication is by having or tapping into a system that makes it a total streamline process.  This means that everything is done the same way, over and over again, and can easily be followed by your downline immediately.

These days, most systems include some sort of online marketing tool since most people have access to the internet, or else a multi-media tool like a DVD or a CD for people to listen to.  Then there are group conference calls to plug into, and the three way calls with your upline.  These are standard in most good duplicable systems.  The best ones have a system to drive prospects smoothly along the process, which is as hands off for the network marketer as possible.

This is because you want to get yourself out of the system as much as possible and let the tools do the work for you.  This does two things.  It gives you more time to prospect and take care of your downline, and lets your prospect see that it’s just as easy for them as well to run their business.

Network marketing takes a lot of effort and time to begin, but the better the system that you get involved with, the better off you’ll be, and the higher your passive residual income will begin to skyrocket.

If your direct sponsoring upline doesn’t seem to be plugged into a system, then do your best to go upline from them as high as it takes to get hooked up with someone who does have a duplicable system.  If you’re not involved in network marketing yet then find a team that has a system in place and can help you set it up most effective and efficiently.

Your income potential depends directly on your duplication system.

Monetization…How to Make More from Your Website Visitors…

When it comes to making money in internet marketing, there are numerous ways in which you can do so.  Though you probably have your primary reason for being online, and a product, service, or opportunity that your trying to make money with, it’s important that you realize not only how to actually get people to buy your stuff, but that there are other ways to make extra money by using the same resources that you’re putting online already.

If you’re trying to sell your service online, then you must know that it’s essential for you to know how to either know how to write sales copy, or know that if you don’t you should be looking to hire someone who does.  There’s really no getting around it what so ever.  The amount of money that you make online is nearly directly correlated with your sales message…and your sales process.

Your process is very important because you need to have a sales funnel to put people through.  You see online, things are a little bit different than if you had a regular brick and mortar business on the street.  This is because of the trust issue involved.  People need to be exposed to you a little bit more in order for them to trust you.

I talked about Branding yourself online in a previous post that you can read here…

…but the point is that you must have a sales system (sometimes called funnel) put into place in order to do so.

The absolute best way to do this is by capturing the information of your website visitors.  In fact I would say that it’s almost crucial if you’re looking to massively succeed online at all.  If you’ve studied internet marketing for any period of time now, you’ve surely heard that the money is in the list.  Well, that’s precisely what that means.  It means that you capture the name and email address (or more, but at least the email address) of your website visitors so that you can send messages to them over and over.

What does this do?

It gets them used to you.  If you do it correctly it lets them get to know you.  It allows you to build trust with them overtime.

Another thing that it does though is it gives you a chance to try and sell to them again if they don’t buy the first time.  Plus, it let’s you be able to sell other things to them as an affiliate so that you can at least earn money off of those people who don’t buy YOUR product.

This also does another thing which is really important.  It conditions them to buy from you.  Once they’ve made a small purchase from you once, and you’ve delivered (even if it wasn’t your own product by the way) then you’ve built a trust with them that will make it easier for you to sell them on something else…hopefully something a little bit more expensive.

So you definitely want to be collecting your visitors information as much as possible.  You do this by putting a form on your page, and using an auto-responder service.  The one I prefer is Aweber because it’s the most popular and it’s very easy to use.  More importantly, they have one of the best deliverability rate in the industry, which means that more messages get through the spam filters.

There are other ways to monetize your sites though…

You can use Adsense, which is a program through Google that allows you to put relevant ads that people have paid to place on your sites, and so every time someone click one of those ads, you get paid. It’s not always a huge amount, usually cents rather than dollars, but overtime this adds up.  Not to mention the fact that if someone is going to click away from your site anyways, you may as well get paid for it right?

Other ways is to actually let people pay you to have their ad on your site either weekly, or monthly.  This usually requires that you have a site with high traffic, but not always.  If you can prove that you’re getting very highly targeted traffic then many people will be willing to still place there ad on your site, and pay you to do so.

There are tons and tons of ways online to make money, and many people don’t tap into them enough.  If you use the traffic funnel system that I’ve spelled out for you here, and you use some of the monetization systems that are out there like Adsense, you’ll soon start seeing your site earning money from more of your visitors than ever before.

Your Own Virtual Real Estate… and How to Use it To Brand Yourself Online

In a previous article on internet marketing we talked a lot about how you should begin, and the mistakes that most people make online that you should do everything to avoid.  So you should know that slapping up an ugly website, and hoping people will come is a failing strategy nearly every time.

I also talked about how you should consider your prospective customer or business partner depending on your industry, and why you should carry on less about yourself and really focus on them.  Well, this article is going to touch on how you SHOULD use your websites and the internet to brand yourself and your name.

It’s going to show you how to get people to notice you and begin to recognize you as an authority in your industry or niche.

Now, let’s not get confused here.  You see, I believe that most people have this intention from the very beginning and that’s why they do make that first mistake of going on and on about themselves on their websites.  But that’s not how you establish yourself as an authority.

Let’s look at it from the reader’s point of view!  Actually, let’s look at it from your point of view but from the other side of the coin.

Let’s say you were looking for a person to build you a house on a new piece of property that you’d just bought.  Of course you would shop around right for the building who you thought would do the best job.  So let’s say you go to the first person and he starts to tell you how great he is, and how he builds the best houses there are.  How everybody loves him, and how if he builds your house that you can’t go wrong.  He may even tell you that he’s been building houses for 20 odd years.  Wow!  Impressive…or is it?

Let’s say the next guy you go to sits you down in his office, and pulls out a large catalog of all of the houses that he’s built for other people.  But while he’s showing you these houses he’s telling you all about the process of building homes, and why he did the things that he did to each house to make each structure more solid, to make each window more secure so that you lose less heat in the winter and less cool air in the summer.

If he went through and educated you on all of this stuff, and really laid it out there for you, without ever…not once…saying how great he thought he was…tell me, which guy would you trust and want to work with the most.  The guy who talked obsessively about himself, or the guy who showed you why he does things the way he does, and how if he did those same things for you your house would be more secure and you’d save tons of money?

I think we know the answer to that question pretty easily.

You see him as an expert now because he’s shown you he was an expert, not told you so.

On the internet it takes a lot more to get someone to trust you because it’s not a face to face meeting.  Therefore, you have to prove in other ways that you’re a real person, and that you’re knowledgeable.

Now just proving that you’re a real person goes a long way in branding yourself as well.  That’s why you should always have a picture of yourself on all of your websites…on everything that you do online.  You see people are actually very afraid of the anonymity of the internet…because they’ve heard horror story after horror story about people getting ripped off.  You probably have too right?

So you need to prove to people right off the bat that you are a real person.  The way to do that is with pictures of yourself, videos of yourself (which is really easy to do these days) and even audio of yourself.

You need to have a quick and easy way for people to contact you.  Give your phone number, your email address, and even Skype profile if you have it.  If not you should get it.

You also need to always remember to educate your prospects and prove to them that you’re an expert, not just tell them that you’re one.

Keeping these things in mind will set you so far apart from your competition that eventually you’ll have to do less work, to get many more customers simply for the trust factor.

Sponsoring: Your Role as an Upline Sponsor

Network Marketing/MLM is a unique business model for a number of reasons.  Never mind the residual income, but the fact that it’s a business model where those involved are not only encouraged to, but basically required to grow as people in order to succeed.

It’s also one of the few business models or industries where you’re actually mentored by the person who hired you, or in the case of network marketing…sponsored you.   Sure, when you get hired into a job no matter where it is, even at McDonald’s you’re trained.   But you’re trained to perform only the job requirements that you’re handed and that’s the extent of it.

Your superiors don’t really care whether or not you grow in the company; much less grow as a person.  In fact, they’d rather you didn’t grow within the company because they’re usually afraid that you might take their own job.  If you grow you actually threaten their job security and their income.

In that case, you almost can’t blame them for being worried.

But in the industry of network marketing there’s a huge difference.  But the problem can sometime lie in the fact that people come from exactly the field of thought that I’ve just described above…simply because that’s what they’ve gotten conditioned to in their lives.

Can’t really blame them either!  But these people don’t always make for the best sponsors.

You see, as a network marketer you have a responsibility as a sponsor.  You’re not only a sponsor, you’re also a coach.  A mentor!  Your job is to show the people that you recruit or sponsor into your opportunity how to succeed.

The ultimate way to do this is with duplication, hopefully within a system.  That’s the ultimate win/win solution.

You see, for that selfish side of you (we all have it, don’t feel bad) don’t forget that there’s a huge benefit for you in mentoring your downline to success.  Your income is directly correlated with their success isn’t it?  As they grow and sponsor more people into their business, if you’ve chosen a company with a good and fair compensation plan then you’re ultimately going to benefit as well.

But the fact is that it just feels really good to know that you’ve helped someone achieve their dreams.  Granted the money is good, but guess what…if you help people achieve their dreams the financial gain will come.  One way or another, your service to them will be paid back monetarily, because ultimately you’re building your self-value, and that simply determines your all around income.

As a network marketer you have the rare chance to mentor and coach people, and help them actually achieve their wildest dreams.  Plus you have the ability to become extremely wealthy in the process.

Sure we all want to become recruiting machines and bring in tons and tons of people every month to our frontline and see who sticks, but let me remind you that passive income, the greatest income in the world…the income most responsible for the wealthiest people in the world… is gained in network marketing only by your downline becoming successful.

You have a role as a sponsor, don’t neglect it…doing so is at the expense of your own success.

Relationships: Why Building Relationships is the Quickest Way to Creating Wealth.

In an earlier post I talked about Passive Income as being one of the most profound aspects of building wealth.  This is the truth, but the fact of the matter is that there is one aspect which is paramount over any other when it comes to wealth building, especially wealth building in a hurry, and that is Relationships.

Here’s the thing that few people mention when they talk about building wealth and becoming rich.  No matter what happens in this world, there’s always a linkage of people who actually make it happen.  No man or woman can becomes wealthy on their own effots without dealing with people in one way or the other.

Let’s face it, people are the ones who are going to give you their money for your services right?  For people to feel comfortable giving you their usually hard earned money they have to perceive what you have for them as having intricate value for them, and they have to feel comfortable and trust you.

That comfort and trust is built on your relationship with them.

This is why building relationships is the key to building wealth.  There are various types of relationships that you’ll have to build and cultivate to truly see major success.

In essence, one of the things that you should get into the habit of, which is rare and will put you in a small percentage of the population, is to learn to see the good in everyone you meet.  Dan Kennedy, the business and marketing consultant that the business and marketing consultants go to for advice says that “everyone on Earth is here for a purpose even if only to serve as poor example.”

This is true, but the fact is that if you learn to see the good in people then you have something to go on to build a relationship with them.  The majority of people in this world like to see the bad in everyone they meet.  They would rather gossip and talk about that person – to the other people that they gossip and talk about – than to actually form a friendship or bond with them and get to know them.  Getting to know just one right person can change your whole life forever, and often times it’s the people that we think will mostly likely have nothing to offer for us that have the most to offer.

This is not to say that you should form relationships just for your benefit.  You see that’s where people will often make a huge mistake.

If you read the post on self-value, you’ll remember I advised that you need to serve people and therefore become valuable to that person.  Then and only then will you ever get anything from any relationship, and rightly so.  It’s a cause and effect action and that’s one of the laws of the universe.  You can never truly expect anything when you haven’t created a cause for the outcome…the effect.

By building relationships on the foundation of your value, you’ll begin to see that people are attracted to you and will be standing in line to build relationships with you.

The types of relationships that you’ll need to build are:

  • With the everyday people in you life (remember, you never know which person will have the most immense effect on your life)…
  • The people who you work with who are your peers…these are the people who you can expect to partner with and increase the value of both parties.
  • Your prospects and customers (this is a biggie)…no business is complete or even possible to succeed or thrive without customers and prospective customers…
  • Mentors…these are people who can help you grow to new heights in your life and your business…but the fact is that you need to show them value before they’ll truly care to share their knowledge and expertise with you…
  • Those that you can mentor.  It’s important that you give back to the world and the universe and one of the best ways to do that, if not the best way, is to mentor someone yourself.

If you’re not building relationships then you’re not actively building your life. It’s time you took stock in your life right now and the relationships that you have built, and begin to truly become of service to people and watch your relationship base grow in leaps and bounds.  You’ll thank yourself very soon for doing so.

Social Networking: Why It’s Changing the Internet Marketing Game and How to Use it To Your Advantage…

There’s a bit of a new buzz phrase online right now that everyone seems to be talking about. The phrase is Social Networking or sometimes called Web 2.0.  This refers to sites that let users correspond almost directly with one another through various methods online, and through different applications.  It sort of involves instant messaging, forums, etc. all in one place.

Of course you’ve heard about Myspace and that would be what most people know about social networking, but that’s only touches on a very small percentage of the scope.  It expands very broadly beyond that.

The important thing is that though social networking does get hyped up a bit, it can be extremely effective in getting your marketing message out there, and also helping you get your website into the search engines.  It’s a bit of a two-fold benefit and I’ll explain why.

First of all, the online world has moved in this direction basically in response to all the crap that was crowding the online world.  Stagnant websites were basically clogging up the internet and nobody was getting much use out of them.  People were being bombarded with highly irrelevant messages and never being able to find what they needed, when they needed it.

It was quite tragic because we had this great tool in our hands and it was starting to get ruined.

The answer to that was Web 2.0 sites, which let people – internet users – help each other decide what was actually useful online and what wasn’t.  It also gave people a platform of their own to display their value, and project their opinions freely.

All sorts of information can be and is shared through social networking… from re-connecting with friends, recommending new music, new movies, great books, political news that’s up to the minute, and all sorts of other things.

Granted, the whole Web 2.0 phenomenon was created to get rid of useless advertising but when done correctly it’s very effective to put your advertising in front of people in a way that doesn’t insult or annoy, but is deemed as highly useful.

In a separate post I explain why content is king online and how to most effectively advertise online by being more discreet, and providing information that people want rather than try to shove your marketing message down their throat.  This is one of the great reasons that Social Networking is great for exactly this use.

But there’s another important reason as well…

You see, since Google’s main purpose to exist is to be relevant for people searching for information, and they’re constantly trying to give them the exact information that they’re looking for right now… they actually LOVE the social networking sites for that very reason.

They love up-to-date highly relevant information and that’s precisely what web 2.0 sites offer, and therefore will reward these sites rather quickly with high search engine placements.

Now like everything in life, Social Networking and Web 2.0 aren’t limited to one single aspect. There are many different types of sites that qualify as being apart of the Web 2.0 phenomenon.  These include sites for actually networking like Myspace, Facebook,  Flickr, and even dating sites like Adult Friend Finder.

Then there are different bookmarking sites which allow users to post intriguing web pages and articles and rate them online at certain sites like Digg, Technorati, Zimbio, etc.

There are also blogging sites that allow you to post articles as well as a profile of yourself like Squidoo, Hubpages, Gather, Blogger, etc.

There are many forms of social networking and the key to taking advantage of them is to learn how to inter-connect them all to one another so that you control your own network of information, and therefore direct the user/reader from what site of yours to the next.

When you’ve mastered this…or even gotten pretty good at it…you’ll begin to see your messages taking on lives of their own and creating a stir across the internet!

Don’t be fooled into thinking that Social Networking is for the kids.  Use it to your advantage while still respecting the other internet users and it’s a win/win situation.

Attraction Marketing: How to Attract Prospects to You, Rather Than Chasing Them…

With nearly everything in life there are two ways to do something… the easier way or the harder way.

More often than not the easier way pretty much correlates to the most efficient and effective way.  I suppose this isn’t the absolute 100% truth and that sometimes the easier way isn’t the most effective — but the lazier way — but for the most part the easier way usually wins the game.

Network marketing is no exception and therefore there is an easier way and a harder way to market for prospects.  These are made up of either chasing or attracting prospects.  Which would you say would be the easiest?

Let’s just start with the harder way.  Chasing!  Chasing anything anytime is never easy or very much fun.

Tell me this…is it easier to go out and chase your food and kill it or is it easier to just go to the store and buy it.  It might be a bit of a stretch but you could almost say that the delivery drivers are bringing the food to you.  Sure, you still have to drive to the store and pick it up, but essentially it’s brought to your store, that you like, and that’s easiest for you to get to.

How about in the dating world?  Clearly we’d all rather have members of the opposite sex, hopefully intriguing ones, approach us rather than having to go out and try to pick them up.  Wouldn’t you say that’s true?

Well, in network marketing, the best and most effective way to market for prospects is clearly to have them come to you instead of you having to chase them around.  Now this may seem a bit impossible at this point in your career, but let me assure you that it’s totally and completely possible.

You see there are tons of people out there in the world at this very minute actively looking for an opportunity to make more money and/or start their own business.  In fact, there are tons of people actively looking to start a network marketing business.

You may not think that because the common model of talking to family, friends, and neighbors requires that you chase prospects that haven’t shown an inkling of interest in your business.

This can be a great way to build your business, and my wife and Ann and I have built two entirely separate fortunes this exact way, but if you’re not careful it can lead you to believe that these are the only choices you have, and there aren’t any people actually looking.  But there are, each and every single day.

So the key of attraction marketing is to get these people to come to you instead of you coming to them right?  So how do you do that?

It’s important to know what your prospect is looking for.

Sure… they want more money and you do have a way for them to make that, but that’s only a small piece of the puzzle. Think of yourself when you’ve looked for an opportunity to make more money.

What did you look for?

You probably looked for information on how to earn more money right?  You may have looked for information on how to start your own business.  What you were ultimately looking for was a teacher.

You were looking for the teacher by first searching for the message.  You wanted information, but when you find that information… high quality content driven information – NOT a SALES PITCH – you then want to learn more from the person who provides that information.  You wanted more of that person.

You were attracted to that person right?

So then, if you want to attract prospect through attraction marketing you simply need to learn to reverse that system.  You know that people are looking for information so you simply must be the conduit to that information, and build trust within that person that you hold what they need right now…the knowledge to make more money.

Once you’ve done that, you’ve become highly attractive and valuable to that individual.  That’s attraction marketing and it’s pretty darn simple.

Passive Income: Why You Should Be Actively Seeking to Build Streams of Passive Income in Order to Create Wealth.

It’s pretty startling to me when I hear about someone who is trying to increase their wealth, but trying to do so by getting a raise at work, or a better position at their job.  I feel bad because I know that even if they were to get the raise or promotion, they’ll likely still never get wealthy trying to do so using the type of income that a JOB provides.

In actuality, what they should be trying to do is find a way out of that job, and open their own business.

But even then, there’s a certain type of income that they should be after with their own business, that is the leading way to create wealth in life.  It’s actually the type of income I discovered at a very early age.  In fact, I was only a 12 year old boy living in the Bronx when I discovered the beauty of passive income.

How does a 12 year old kid in the Bronx learn so young about Passive Income?

When I was 12 years old I had my very own newspaper route.  I enjoyed delivering newspapers and all that a route entails, but I also wanted to be able to cover a larger area than I was able to all by myself.  Heck, I had to be at school so there was no way I could cover my area plus some, and still make it to school.  So I hired two other kids, and therefore became an employer and passive income earner.

See having employees meant that I had two other kids doing the work in 2 other areas, and I was able to make money from their efforts.  I took on the routes, did the hiring of the two boys, and then simply let them cover the area for me…hence the word passive.  I didn’t have to be there for the money to come in.

Now, there are many types of passive income to be had, but the mere concept fascinated me to no end and I fell completely in love with it.

My next exposure to passive income in a large and profound way came when I began to work with very high profile clients in the entertainment field.  I procured some of the biggest rock stars in the world as accounting and business management clients (that’s a great story for another time in itself), and was reminded once again of the beauty of passive income.

You see, these guys and gals got paid over and over again for songs that they wrote just one time.  It didn’t matter if it only took them a day to write that song either.  They wrote it, recorded it, and everytime after that when it was bought, or used in anyway they were paid a royalty, over and over again.  Didn’t matter what they were doing, even sleeping or onstage doing what they really loved, or harassing me in their private jets, they kept getting paid over and over.  And again, I saw this first hand…I was their business manager.

To watch this was a little torturous I must admit.  Sure they paid me well, and hooked me up with some of the best amenities in the world, but I still had to be there working to get paid, while they were raking it in no matter what they were doing.

Luckily my wife Ann discovered Network Marketing and it didn’t take me long at all to see right along with her that this was the passive income that I was looking for, and I dove in head first with and never looked back for even a single second.

Passive income is responsible for creating the wealthiest people in the world, and few people get there without it.

Take Bill Gates.  Bill Gates is the richest man in the world, but why?  Because he created a stream of passive income that acted as a gateway to the internet!  He doesn’t have to install Windows on every PC that is sold himself, the factories do it automatically, and each and every time they do so, Microsoft (Bill Gates) gets paid.  And when someone upgrades, guess what, Bill Gates gets paid no matter what the heck he’s doing, over and over again to infinity.

So that is why you should actively be seeking a way to create passive income.  Real Estate, software, licensing (music, movies, and books), and the greatest business in the world for the regular man or woman – Network Marketing – are all forms of the tremendous potential of passive income. .

A Review of Doug Firebaugh’s Wealth Soak!

Most people in the world haven’t the slightest clue about what Wealth even is, much less how to obtain it.  What I can tell you is that after over 20 plus successful years in the home-business industry, and teaching thousands of people how to obtain their own wealth…before anyone can truly grasp success and wealth they must first truly grasp the principals of wealth.

I can also say that those who haven’t grasped these principles yet, haven’t succeeded financially, no matter how much of our wisdom and knowledge we shared with them.  It was almost as if they repelled money away from them like two opposite magnetic forces.  It truly is a phenomenal thing to witness, yet also very sad and disappointing.

This is why we recommend so highly Doug Firebaugh’s Wealth SoakWealth Soak is exactly that.  It’s like taking a long warm bath in an abundance of knowledge that when put in the context that Doug is able to put it into, your brain is able to soak it right up like a sponge.  It’s very amazing how Doug can take such universally difficult concepts and condense them down to easy to understand morsels of digestible content.

With the Wealth Soak series you’re actually getting two products in one for each volume.  One part of each volume is a training CD, and the other part is a CD with 10 tracks of training material from Doug, plus music combined.  Each music CD has embedded affirmations so that you can skyrocket your success even faster by soaking the information straight into your subconcious where the real magic starts to happen…and very quickly too.

There are 8 Volumes to this series, and each one builds on the next in perfect formation.  This is great because it takes you through a step by step process to wrap your mind around these concepts and principles.

Volume 1 shows you exactly how to get rid of your negative emotional attachment to money, and really soak in the new knowledge that Doug injects into your consciousness.

In Volume 2 you’ll learn to get back on the path – psychologically – to Wealth.  You’ll finish this volume with an understanding of the 2 wealth levels, where you’re at with wealth, and how to create a paradigm shift in your mind that puts you directly on the path to wealth in the shortest time.

Volume 3 carries on to change your entire model of LIFE, and to reprogram you from the mediocrity mindset, into the Wealth Mindset.  You’ll learn to rid yourself of all of your FEAR and Negative Emotions when it comes to wealth. This is hugely important.

Next is Volume 4…this where you’ll start to really increase and explode your income even more so than what the previous volumes have shown you.  You’ll get first hand training on breaking down all of your wealth barriers, and doing a clean sweep of all of your restrictive thinking that’s keeping your from skyrocketing your income.

Volume 5 carries on immersing you into the psychology of wealth in a huge way, totally turning your paradigm around.  There are 5 crucial and dominant wealth factors in life, and in volume 5 you’re ready to know them, and more importantly…understand them.

Now Volume 6 contains one of the most powerful principles in the entire Wealth Soak series.  This volume will get you out of the survival mode that you’ve been conditioned to be in and totally transform your mind to see new heights of accomplishment that’s possible for you.  This is when things will really start to turn around and the law of abundance begins to work for you.

On to Volume 7 where you are taught the greatest influencer’s of wealth and where you discover the vitally important answer to what your PERSONAL Wealth Driver is.  What drives YOU and only YOU to wealth? It’s different for everyone and Doug shows you how to discover yours so that you never fall out of the wealth mindset again.

Finally, Volume 8 will show you how to surround your self with the greatest Wealth Environment for achieving a long-lasting legacy of success.

So as you can see, we whole heartedly believe in the Wealth SOAK because it gives you the initial mindset that you must possess to see true wealth in your life, and to be honest nobody else is teaching this stuff…and for those who are trying, nobody even comes close to Doug Firebaugh and his teaching style.

Finally learn the true secrets to wealth that 99% of the world don’t know right here
