Keep your hands off my momma and LeBron’s momma too

There has been a lot of buzz for almost 2 weeks now about the mother of NBA superstar LeBron James, Gloria James and LeBron’s team mate Delonte West having an affair. It didn’t help matters when LeBron and the Cavs were bounced from the playoffs while LeBron played poorly. I Think I would be upset also if one of my team mates was sleeping with my mom. It’s not like NBA players don’t already have their picks of some of the most beautiful women in the world. The last that I heard though, LeBron’s lawyers had put out an official statement saying that this was not true and notifying everyone to stop spreading the rumor.

Now, just in case you missed it, take a look again. This is the 2010 Doritos super Bowl commercial.

Now let’s be honest, how many of us saw this coming the first time that we saw the commercial? I know I didn’t. The young guy putting his foot down like that and taking charge caught us all by surprise. It was so shocking that we wanted to tell our friends about it.

These are two examples of what we now call in the internet world as viral. In both cases, we word spread like wild fire. Once one person got a hold of it, they had to share it with someone else and on and on. This is the mark that we all strive for in marketing and promoting our business. You are always just one video, one article, one blog away from that big one that will put you over the top. Keep those creative juices flowing and until you can go viral on your own, I suggest that you take a look at this site called viral url

Basically it does the same thing, even if you don’t have something that the whole world is beating your door down for.

This simple little tip takes about 5 minutes and will help you to increase your sales.

One common mistake that I have noticed a lot lately is that many home based business owners are not taking the time to purchase and forward (I always use forwarding with mask) their company site to a new domain.  Now, what do I mean by that??  Currently, if you click on http://www.sevenfiguremastermindteam.com/thereeds44/45429 and click on http://www.ItMakesLifeBetter.com you get the exact same website, my MLSP site.

Why would this matter?  Well there are lots of reasons, but here are just a few.  If you were talking to someone, what are the chances that they would remember the first one? Do you even remember yourself all of those numbers and symbols in your url? If your customers can’t remember where your website is, they can’t buy from you.

Put yourself on the other end of the equation.  If you were the customer, which site would you take the most seriously? Again, if the customer feels like you are a true business owner, once they remember your site, then they are more likely to visit.

The last reason that I will share today is that for a price that will in most cases be less than $10.00 per years, you also get 90 sub domains.  A sub domain can be used like this:

In order to get your own domain at Godaddy and do what I have done, you could click on this sub domain

http://GoDaddy.ItMakesLifeBetter.com

If I wanted to tell you where to look for training on Black Belt recruiting from Mike Dillard, I would tell you to click the link to this sub domain http://Recruit.ItMakesLifeBetter.com

In other words, with my 90 sub domains and my one main domain, I could send you to virtually any website in the world and make it look like it was part of my site.

More FREE Twitter tools and tricks

Just in case you missed the first part, you might want to look here first to get you up to speed.

Get 1000 Twitter followers a week

This is just some more tips to add to your twitter experience. The first thing to remember is although, these are automated tools, the ultimate goal is to build relationships, so you should not only rely on these tools, but send regular tweets and interact with your followers on a personal basis.

When using Twitter feed, there is an option that allows you to add a message to your automated tweets.  For example you can add ‘RT please’ to let anyone who gets the tweet know that you want them to Re Tweet it.

Also when you find interesting tweets, you should Re Tweet them, this is very flattering to the original person who tweeted it and can help to build that relationship that you are looking for.

Next, there are some additional tools to help you to get followers. www.Tweepml.org and www.buzzm.com allow you to find populae people and follow their followers.  The idea here is that those people will follow you back.

I like to keep the number of people that I am following to the same or less than the people that I am following.  Somehow to me it makes you seem like someone that people will not want to follow when you are following a lot of people and they are not following you back.

So how do you remedy this problem? There are a couple of tools that will allow you to see who is not following you back and unfollow them. Those tools are http://friendorfollow.com/ and http://www.justunfollow.com/

Why people fail in network marketing part 1

It’s a well know fact that 97% of people in network marketing are failing.  As the old saying goes, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

It is my contention that people continue to do what has always failed 97% of the people and somehow thing that the results will be different for them. The old school methods of the 1920′s have failed many people and will continue to fail people.

I believe another factor is that people are afraid to ask for help.  They are prideful and do not want to admit that they are lost. Pride comes before a fall and because people continue to have pride, they continue to fall.  Are you too prideful to admit that you need help?

For part 2 of this topic, I’d love to include your thoughts and ideas, so please leave me your comments.

FREE advice to help you develop any business

FREE, that is my favorite four letter word. These are just a few of the tips that I picked up this week for FREE.

If you want customers to come to your website, you must know what people are searching for on the web.  Here is a FREE tool to help you to determine what people are looking for and therefore which keywords you want to target. http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/

Once you know which keywords to target, then there is a FREE way to get on Google’s first page.  Hint: Article writing with a twist.

If you want to make money, then your focus should not be on your company, but on your customers. People are looking for solutions to their problems. The easiest way to make money is to understand a common problem and provide a solution.

One discussion this week was on “The 6 steps to 7 figures”.  Here is the condensed version of the discussion:

1. Motivation
2. Heart
3. Production
4. Creativity
5. Personal Development
6. Leadership

There was a lot more, but hopefully you get the picture. Now how do you get in on this and gain knowledge for yourself?  Every morning at 10:00 am Central Standard Time, there is a call hosted by someone in the home business industry who has already made millions. These people can now sit back and just share information with others.  I encourage you to try it for one week.  I guarantee that after that week your whole outlook will be different.

To get access you can contact me by email at thereeds44@yahoo.com or you can give me a call at 601-454-3191  Jeff Reed.
