Teleseminar Secrets For Explosive Business Growth

Copyright © 2008 Dan Lok




Have you ever wondered how to do the following with your list?



How you can easily get new subscribers, increase responsiveness, easily create more products proven to sell, increase the frequency of purchases, be able to sell higher priced backend products, create a closer and more profitable relationship?



You can do all of the above and more with well-designed teleseminars.



But first, lets take a quick look at the challenges every list marketer faces. Perhaps the biggest is finding a balance between quality content delivery and offers. Too many offers, too often, will desensitize your list. Obviously you want to avoid that at all costs.



You can have lots of fun with teleseminars because you can be creative with them and your marketing. There's a bit of an air of excitement to verbally interact with your list. And guess what...?



It's goes BOTH ways!



That's right. Your subscribers, as well as "newer" subscribers, will feel the same way. It's so incredibly easy to get used to the same old marketing rut. Sending emails to your list. No matter how good your email copy... nothing... I mean NOTHING can replace the power of the human voice.



The end result of just that one thing will strengthen your relationship. You'll be seen less as a marketer, and hopefully your list will be seen less as... just a list of names and email addresses. So you'll have a stronger desire to deliver excellent content and value.



All good stuff!



So here's how to immediately add value with your teleseminars and increase profits. By the way... this is just step one with this profit stream. Keep reading...



You can invite people to attend at no cost. It's free. But you can offer transcripts and audio recordings for a fee. You can even create multiple offers with different price points for them. Lower and higher priced offers for different options.



Also... you can offer additional, relevant offers at the end of your calls.



You can really juice up your teleseminar format by creating a series of teleseminars with a common theme. For example, a series of 5, 7, or 9 calls ALL with a common theme relevant to your business and market. So there! Instant profit multiplier with a teleseminar series. And you'll be giving your list MORE value.



You'll be able to increase your contact frequency with communications related to your teleseminars. Think about it. You'll contact your list to announce and inform about the call. You'll send timely reminders just before and the day of the call. And definitely a follow-up after the call.



You can still make offers in all the additional emails associated with the calls.



And... you can still contact those who didn't initially sign-up to attend. You can provide feedback or testimonials to entice. And you just may get some latecomers to sign on. If they upgrade to receive transcripts or audios, then that's only more profit for you!



You can grow your list by either advertising your teleseminars or with some well-placed JV's. You know joint ventures are powerful. A few JV's to advertise your teleseminars could possibly sell it out very quickly. And that's more subscribers for you.



What about developing some new products to market?



You can sell the transcripts and recordings to anyone within your market! You can make offers to your list for those who didn't attend. You can also sell them with PPC and any other form of advertising. Or you can backend them for any relevant product offer. You can even use them as bonus offerings. How about breaking down the series into smaller products?



You see? You really can get very creative with this stuff.



Here's some more food for thought...



Ok, you've done one teleseminar series. You have experience under your belt. You have a completed structure and process sitting on the shelf. So? Do it again, later. That's right! Perhaps you can do it again later in the year. Maybe put something new into it. Add on a little bit to spice it up. Or...



You can create yet another relevant teleseminar series and do it again! It'll be much easier the second time because you've already done it. Depending on your market and products, you may have room for a whole series of teleseminar series!



So everything mentioned above can be multiplied. And it only means more profits and more value to your customers. Totally win-win!



Marketing and growing your business doesn't have to be stale and boring. Just realize there are many more creative approaches available for you.

Business Planning Basics

Written by: Clinton Douglas IV




Business planning is an important factor when you are launching your small business startup or online business, and you need to make sure you have documented your ideas thoroughly and objectively for each area. From financial projections to summaries and overviews, an effective business plan will help you and potential investors determine how valuable the business idea truly is.



Most people make the mistake of thinking they don't need a business plan for an online business or startup; they think they can just launch first, and then put the pieces together as they move ahead. However, this can be a costly strategy and puts you at risk for some big mistakes. Business planning will help you organize your goals and keep you on track towards success. Here are some basic do's and don'ts for business planning:



Do write up the business plan summaries before filling out each area. The summary can serve as a basic guide, and can always be changed later if needed. You'll need to write up the general idea of what the section is about so you have a simple outline before getting into the details.



Don't analyze trends too early. While it's a good idea to do some market research and learn about your customers, determining market potential too early on can lead to poor decisions. Effective business planning requires that you find only the information that supports your ideas at this present moment, and then using solid financial projections for forecasting at a later date.



Do outline a marketing budget and plan. Your marketing plan doesn't have to be complex to be effective, and there are many ways you can work on promoting your business and developing a strong customer base. Make a list of at least 5-8 marketing objectives and strategies so that you can coordinate your marketing plan immediately from the startup of your business.



Don't share your business planning strategy or ideas with too many people. You want to make sure that your plans and information remain confidential until you are prepared to launch. Sharing your ideas with too many people can easily make you lose out on a great business opportunity.



Do include sales strategies and marketing tools you want to use. This will help you narrow down which approaches might be most effective for your business as you start out, and you can always build upon them as the business grows. Having these ideas in writing will help you keep track of your objectives with ease.



Don't include your background research or additional ideas within the final plan. Business planning does require some strategic reporting, and you don't have to 'publish' all of your research in the final plans. Take the time to weed out what is most important for you as you get going, and organize the plan as if you were going to be presenting it to a board for review. This will help you filter out what is necessary for the beginning phases of your small business startup, and what can wait for additional review at a later date.



Effective business planning takes time, patience, and strong research and organization skills but the effort is well worth it. Following some business planning basics is all you need to get started, and you can work on building up your plan with ease as the business grows.

General Pointers And Precautions Of Buying An Expired Web Domain

Copyright © 2008 John Khu




Consider the real value of the expired web domain: Let us say that you have an expired domain that is more than five years old and you have not been able to sell it at a higher price. Now, if you get an offer for that particular expired web domain, ensure that you are not bargaining too much with the prospective buyer. Before you want to reject the offer, just sit down and think about the following aspects:



a) What is the life of that domain and since how many days have you been holding it?
b) How many offers did people make in the previous months?
c) What was the highest offer?
d) What is the level of frequency at which you receive your offer?



Note: If you own an expired web domain of four or more years old, you would better sell it off soon for a decent price. This will result in a fair deal for both you and your prospective buyer. Never be too greedy to dispose the domain for an unrealistic price.



Uncertainty of receiving consistent offers: Expired web domain business is a quiet and discrete event! An offer suggested by one buyer is entirely different from an offer made by other buyers. The market conditions always vary and change overnight, and the market condition of the day is entirely different from the one seen about a year back. Set a price for your expired web domain name and dispose it as soon as possible. Selling expired web domain is a marketing activity: There is a misconception among investors that people come flocking together to buy expired web domain names! It is not true! Selling expired domain is a marketing activity and you will need to develop the skills of selling in the ever competing market. You may wish to put a notice board saying that the domain name is for sale and interested parties can contact you, in case they are keen in buying the domain.



Providing contact details to prospective buyers: The most common mistake that investors commit is avoiding entering their contact details on the "Whois" database. Ensure that you enter your contact detail on the database, so that prospective buyers can contact you and buy the domain at a good price.



Every domain has its own price: Another mistake that people often commit is to pay a higher price for a particular expired web domain. Many investors assume that a particular domain name will have a great prospect of selling at a very higher price. But, this may not be always true! Ensure that you are paying enough attention, while assessing the real value of the expired domain; never ever, overpay for your expired domain.



Finally, trading in expired wed domain is a delicate act and a thoughtful exercise. Make sure that you learn about pitfalls of buying and selling expire domain names, so that you will not get trapped in the magical circle of expired web domains.
