    Financial FitnessWhat would you say if I told you that you have the potential as a personal trainer to earn 40, 50 or even in excess of ?60,000 per year?If you’re thinking ‘That’s impossible!’ then you’re right, for you the likelihood of reaching anything near these sums is impossible. You may as well stop reading this article right now and save yourself the bother of even contemplating the material.If, on the other hand, you think to yourself ‘ Yes, that’s for me’ then read on and pay close attention, because what you read over the following pages is GUARANTEED to take you closer to realising your financial potential – BUT ONLY IF YOU ACTUALLY USE THE INFORMATION. You’ll get abs
    As Claude Hopkins presented in his Scientific Advertising many decades ago, there are scientific ways of tracking your Marketing and Advertising and determining clearly and unequivocally what works and what does not. Without knowing the facts about what is effectively increasing your leads, and subsequently your sales success, you might as well be throwing money out the window—literally.

    All you have to do is reflect on your own Marketing to realize the truth in the old statement: 90% of Advertising does not work, problem being, which 90%? If you could identify and harness the 10% that does work, you would truly have power in your hands. Well, the fact is that you can.

    Below are examples of Marketing that you can track. But don’t stop after implementing! If results are not analyzed on an ongoing basis, and consequently, what works is not repeated, you will be back in that 90% void.

    A powerful ad

    A good ad must follow these guidelines in order to reach its maximum potential and yield beyond your expectations:

    1. Don’t make it look like an ad! The more it resembles the publication itself, the better results you will see. That is why an advertorial—an ad that looks like news or an editorial—is such a powerful device.

    2. Make use of a strong headline. This requires a great deal of time and effort. As Hopkins himself stated, he would spend the most time on the headline, discarding many along the way. Only after having a bulletproof headline, would he continue with the rest.

    4. Tell a story. Give readers a story that reels them in, with which they can really connect.

    5. Make it newsworthy. You wouldn’t read the paper or your favorite magazine if the content were not newsworthy, right? Same goes for an ad. Make it substantial and important.

    6. Include an offer. This is your chance to make them do something! Offer something they cannot resist and which will make them take action… now. If you don’t offer anything, you greatly minimize the chances of making the sale. Think of this: what are the odds that they will be ready to purchase from you that instant that they came across your ad? Answer: extremely low!

    7. Make it easy for people to contact you. 24/7 is ideal, but otherwise, make your phone or email or other type of access extremely straightforward and be responsive. Never intimidate your audience in any way when interfacing with them, so that they always feel comfortable and taken care of.

    8. Have a tracking mechanism in place. And this is the final key element. You must track your success! That is how you can be scientific in your approach, and what will ultimately reveal if your tactic is indeed successful or not.

    You can track via a telephone extension, by denoting a Department in your address, or via a URL. Tracking activity on a URL (Web address) is extremely easy these days, and extremely powerful.

    Lead generation and follow-up on the Web

    Lead generation is how you collect prospectives as time goes on, making up the audience you will stay in front over time—in other words, you future customers. The Web, if used properly, can generate tremendously for you. And through automation, follow-up on those leads becomes both easy and a surefire way to win buyers over.

    The important thing is to lure them on every page of your site via an offer that prompts them to submit their email address. Don’t let them go without doing so! Just like an ad, visitors are usually passing by, and will not likely return. Give them an article or other useful piece of information that will then give you permission to stay in touch.

    Adding Value to Sports Sponsorships
    When sports franchise executives convene in virtual boardrooms to discuss corporate sponsorship packages, the conventional dialogue revolves around quantity, not quality. Ironically, the teams who stand to benefit the most have a propensity to persevere the least in terms of maximizing added value for clients. Large-market franchises are routinely inundated with countless requests for sponsorships, but they fail to satisfy existing clients.While sports executives undermine the saliency of giving sponsors the biggest bang for their buck, corporate constituencies are noticeably restless toward the diminishing marginal returns vis-?-vis stadium signs, promotional events and media advertising.

    Advertising Mistakes - How To Avoid Them
    Writing Effective CopyNever try to sell anything costing more than $5 in a small display ad or a classified ad. First of all, you don't have enough room to tell people everything they need to know to entice them to order.Instead, you need to employ the "Two-Step" method of advertising. Request the reader to send you $1 or 4 first-class postage stamps for more information. When they respond, you will send them a brochure, flyer, order form and cover letter so they can place an order for the real product.Now that pricing is out of the way lets talk about writing your ad copy. The best way to learn how is to read the ads other people have written. Don't copy them word-

    Finding Keywords - for Adwords Publishers
    If you advertise with adwords you have probably realised that with recent changes to their system, the crowd at google have made it very difficult to maintain a profitable adwords campaign. This applies to those promoting other peoples products or their own.The way I used to create a keyword list for my campaigns was to use the adwords sandbox to enter a bunch of keywords that were relevant to my market and just add whatever words it spat out at me.It took me a while but I realized eventually that this wasn’t the best way to go about it. Many of my keywords would become inactive and the ones that remained were ranked 17.2 and not seeing a lot of action at all.It annoyed me becaus

    * A recommendation. Very powerful, as you are sharing information freely, creating trust and strengthening your bond. Recommendations can include a good book (on investment, good business practice, well- being), a piece of software, or performance improvement tool.

    * A link to an informative area of your site. You can also point them to a new area of your site—informative, of course, never bragging about what you do or who you are (think about what a turn-off that is to you as a consumer). By bringing them to a page or area that is of use to your visitor, you are sharing and educating. Should they choose to navigate and learn more about you and your product or services—well, that is always their choice.

    In this manner, you remain in front of your prospectives, and you do so with useful materials. They will appreciate it, and in constantly giving them information that benefits them, you stand out as the expert and trusted source. Meaning the odds are in your favor of getting the sale in the long run.

    Build your money-making machine with powerful tactics such as these, and watch your company grow in leaps and bounds. Best of luck!
