Advice from a Marketing Pro

I have been reading several emails from mailto:GAllanRoberts@superiorimageusa.com for some time now and it caused me to be curious if he had some answers for this newbie.

The following paragraphs are my "conversation" with him:

I have been reading your emails for some time now and I have a few questions. I am a brand new newbie. I make no bones about it, I guess I have bought over the past year 10 to 15K of stuff. It seems as though everyone has a different idea. Know what I mean? It is kind of like I am a deer sitting in the headlights almost afraid to make a move. I am sure you know the feeling.

I have one question. Is there a way for someone to start marketing on the internet with very little money down? I guess you get this question all the time, however I am not literate with making web pages and I guess I am looking for a way to make a buck but just do not know where to start.

You probably get these type of questions all the time, however I really am interested in your answer. I guess the main reason I am writing this to you, I read your email post about sleeping on the couch and it got me interested. Thanks,

Here is the response:


I know what you going through I have been there too. I have spent over $70k in informational products over the last 2 years. Think of it as in an investment... Once you invest in yourself no one can take that away from you.

"On the far side of complexity is simplicity"

Sometime you have to about things the hard way to figure out the easy way. In last 15 days all the peices of the puzzle have come clear to me and I know how to put the puzzle together. You are experiencing the same thing...

It's going to come together, you just missing pieces of the puzzle. I can help you fill in the blanks.
The best way to get out of "the deer in the headlights" or analysis paralysis, is take action.

"Sloppy success is better then NO success"

Forget about not understanding how to do something everything can be done for you at low cost. YOU need to have the idea... Who are you? What do you want people to know? What is your unique abllity? Focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses.

Here is an Action plan that will create a $15,000 a month income for you in the next 12 months... If you take action.

1. Determine the niche or the direction you want to go... (I can not do this for you)

2. Write articles about your interest. Between 250 - 350 words. Use a simple opening paragraph... and 7 one to two sentence bullet points.

3. Post a Blog (I would create one hosted on your own URL and hosting using ww.wordpress.org see mine http://www.gallanroberts.com/)

4. Post your articles to ezinearticles.com, back link to your opt-in page. (again host plan... I can help)

5. Post daily to your blog and weekly to the article directly.

6. In about 30 days conbine articles into an ebook and a free giveaway. The book is going to have a link to get you paid affilate commissions.

7. Continue step 5. Create your own CD product. (again I can help) sell it FREE, $10, 15 etc.

8. Do this for about a year. Then create a package with all your training CDs as one package or home study course.

STOP...

First, do step 1 then 2. then 3. then so on... Do you see how each action builds on the next?

Do not worry if you do not know... focus on what your do know.

I hoped that helped...

I would enjoy talking with you...
Let's set up a time to talk...
Saturdays are good for me...
2:00 PM EST or 7:00 PM EST (better for you)

Warmly
G Allan Roberts
