Marketing studies show that a potential customer will need 5 to 7 exposures of a product or service before they make a buying decision. By following-up with your prospects and customers, you can amplify the likelihood of "closing the sale." Your prospect becomes a customer or your current customer buys from you again.
An auto responder is a powerful marketing and customer service tool. Customers opt-in to your list and become your subscribers, giving you permission to contact them via email. An auto responder will let you send follow-up emails on a regular basis, so it doesn't matter how many "follow-ups" your subscribers needs before they are ready to buy.
However, following-up requires you to keep track of who you've contacted and when. And keeping up with your follow-ups can be mind-numbing.
But if you are running your business on-line, the tool of choice to help you is an auto responder.
Auto responders give you the advantage of communicating with your prospects while building a relationship with them. You build brand awareness and build credibility, confidence, and trust. And the best part is that it's done automatically once you get your auto responder set up because auto responders work 24/7.
With auto responders you don't have to personally figure out who is and who isn't a good prospect. The auto responder will continue to send emails to your subscribers and if your subscriber chooses to unsubscribe, the auto responder will unsubscribe them for you. The responsibility lies with the subscriber, not with you.
Now Im not here to promote any brands but do your homework and find one that suits your needs.
Personalize messages with your subscriber's name and other information.
Send an unlimited number of e-mail messages.
Pre-load a series of messages to be sent out at predetermined intervals.
Broadcast a general message to your list.
If you’re not using an auto responder then you’re making hard work for yourself in your business and really a home business should be about avoiding hard work and making everything automatic.

Video marketing mistakes

When it comes to video marketing your main objective is to achieve attraction, it’s to offer sound marketing information and great content in order to entice the viewer to have the desire to find out additional information about you, more about your teachings and ultimately become a regular viewer of your videos and your personal web site.
However one mistake people are constantly making is producing videos that concentrate on promoting their business above and beyond attraction.
No one like to be sold to any more, people are being continuously bombarded with advertising in every medium possible, from mail In your door to the extra loud TV advertisements, even marketing calls as you try to enjoy time with your family, the last thing people want to see in a video site is someone selling their opportunity.
The opportunity should be sold on their website, because if you created a following of people from your videos and they have taken an interest in you, and subsequently visit your website, then they are looking for what you are doing, you not spamming video sites your obtaining attraction and becoming someone people want to work with.
As video sites become saturated they begin to tighten the rules, if you start using unethical means to promote your channel such as titles that have no relation to the video or descriptions that contain non relevant keywords, simply to attract untargeted views then you’re walking a fine line to suspension.
Why use the title “Company X is a scam” when you know it’s not and your video is promoting company X. Why have celebrity names and brand names in a mile long repetitive description when your video contains no relation to any of them.
Remember its attraction not deception your aiming for, what does a video full of spam say about you as a marketing leader?

When and when not to join the home business arena
As explained in the video below it’s very easy to get fast talked into the home business arena, however before you go sign up to an opportunity, you have to do your home work and find out specifically where you are in relation to skills and finances.
Most home business recruiters don’t take your personal circumstances into the equation, for most your just another $ in their downline.
In this post I want to explain that it’s not as easy as they make out.
First you need a solid education which luckily you are getting from viewing these tutorials second you really need to be in a place of positivity in your personal life.
So many would be marketers fail due to have a lack of education no support from an upline and also no recourses to tap into.
97% fail in this industry because they have just lost their job or are having a hard time financially and get talked into this industry with the promise of fast money, Whoo, think again, it takes time and investment to gain an online empire; there is no quick fix, no magic pill.
If your having trouble paying the Mortgage or bills then get employment to support your family, don’t join an online home business that will take at least a year to yield results, now don’t get me wrong this industry has brought me, my business partners and thousands of people vast amounts of success, I no longer have to work for anybody, and I would have never reached the financial goals that this industry has blessed upon me, if I was still working for someone else, but it will not be fast or easy.
Only get involved with this industry if you have the proper education and skills, your still supporting what needs to be supported and you have reserve capitol to play with.
Never listen to marketers that tell you “it’s so easy” it is not.

But if you have the drive as I did and my business partners did then the sky is the limit, I tell you that truly and so deep from my heart, I so want others to escape the rat race and empower themselves.
