No Software Needed?

Butterfly Marketing proves to be just as powerful in strategies then in the software itself. Below you will find a student and customer of the course. Michael Cheney and I have had an opportunity to meet over the last few weeks with the success of his launch (See below).

Michael applied the the pre-launch strategies and affiliate tools and JV strategies (Butterfly Effects) to the his launch. I can go on and on, but I will let you read what Mike had to say below.



Butterfly Case Study - Brit Student Makes $63,249 in 24 hours of launch!

Mike - first off I just want to say thank you so much! The techniques I learned from Butterfly Marketing played a BIG part in helping me make $63,249 in sales in 24 hours!!

As I write this I'm still finding it hard to believe. It seems a lifetime ago that the BFM package landed on my doorstep and I started poring over it with my smile getting larger and wider with each new insight as I realized that as long as I APPLIED what I was learning the principles were going to make something BIG happen!

Little did I know just HOW BIG it would be when I launched AdSense Videos...

AdSense Videos - 33 Hours After Launch..

The site went live. My life changed forever - seriously the results have been incredible Mike - we've grossed over $200,000 in 7 days!! The site got an Alexa ranking on Launch Day of 351!

You want to know the gross sales figure just 4 hours after the Launch?
(the number at the top of each board is the time - the site went live at 12:00)

 

Why I'm smiling 8 hours after the Launch

 

Why I'm smiling 12 hours after the Launch..

 

Why I'm smiling EVEN MORE after 24 hours of the Launch!

 

AdSense Videos was ranked Number 1 on the ClickBank Marketplace in the Marketing category after just 4 days of Launch!

I've had an Inbox full of sales all week!

This is what happens when I LEAVE MY INBOX FOR JUST 45 minutes;

This is 29 sales in 45 minutes! That's $2523 gross sales in 45 minutes. And this was on the SIXTH DAY of the Launch!!

I've also been getting, on average, one new subscriber every minute of every hour for the past SIX AND A HALF DAYS!!!

 

The past few days have been unbelievable - I've got an absolute TON of screenshots of it all happening and there's no sign of the sales slowing down..

So - What did I learn from you Mike and from Butterfly Marketing?

Where to start! I think one of the biggest things was the step-by-step approach. Everything I created for Affiliates, Joint Venture partners and for people going through the videos themselves has been step-by-step. I made everything as easy as I could and 'muppet-proof' as I like to call it!

I also realized that it's paying attention to the smaller details BEFORE launch that really pay dividends AFTER the Launch. And BOY am I seeing that!

You gave some absolute gems of advice in Butterfly marketing which have, without a shadow of a doubt, contributed in a big way to the overall success of AdSense Videos.

Thanks again!

Michael Cheney

How To Own 14,645 Words & Phrases That Sell Like Crazy!

New Page 1

Are there really 14,645 words and phrases that sell?

Well, the answer to that question is yes and thousands more!

That is just how many I found and categorized here:

LD Private Label Resale Rights Sale

Can a simple change of one word or phrase really increase your sales?

Here are just eight examples of how just one tiny word or phrase can help increase your sales:

1) Imagine - This word will persuade people to buy because people like to leave there own reality. Why do you think TV, movies, video games, music, drugs, alcohol, etc. are so popular? Give them one or more of their desired benefits to imagine.

2) Save Time - This phrase will influence people to buy because most people want to save time. Even with all the technological advances, people still can't get everything done in one day.

3) Safe - This word will persuade people to buy because people want to be safe and avoid physical pain, to avoid risk too. They also want to avoid harming other people in their life. 

4) Serious Inquires Only - This phrase will influence people to buy because you are actually limiting those that can order based upon eligibility. A business-like approach that tells people it is direct and trust-worthy. 

-----

Do you want to grab your own personal arsenal of 14,645 words and phrases that sell like crazy? If so, go here:

-----

5) Easy - This word will persuade people to buy because people don't want to work hard at acquiring their desired benefit and goal. They want the experience to be as painless as possible.

6) Don't Read This - This phrase will influence people to  buy because it uses reverse psychology. It catches your prospect off-guard and they wonder why they shouldn't read it. They also become more curious by the prohibition.

7) Warning - This word will persuade people to buy because people have been cautioned their whole life to stop and take notice of any kind of warning. Such as storm warnings, poison warnings, side effects warnings, etc.

8) Tired Of - his phrase will influence people to buy because people get tired of the old things in their life.  The old just does not give the promise of the new.  New has the potential to fulfill their desire for benefits or a goal achieved.

-----
Just imagine, if you could own the "Private Label Resell Rights" to 14,645 words and phrases that sell? Now, you don't have to:

It’s All About Connection - Get 52 Weeks of Emails to your Niche

New Page 2

Do you have a website?  Then you’ve likely heard stories about webmasters who are just raking it in hand over fist – piles of dinero left and right.

 

What on earth are these guys doing??  Are we talking ties to the mob or something?

 

Nope.  Nothing that dramatic.

 

In fact, some of them just send out a few emails each week.  Maybe spend an hour or two researching.

 

They do know a little secret that eludes many marketers.  These successful webmasters  have an uncanny way of reaching out to the folks who visit their websites, and making them feel warm and welcome.

 

Website visitors sign up for a weekly message, and the relationship starts forming.  Gradually, they feel like they know the sender.  They trust the sender.  And they buy from the sender.

 

So how do you write emails that foster that kind of positive relationship?  Simple.  You just write to the audience as if they’re your best buddy. 

 

“Oh, my, how unprofessional!” you might think.  No, no, a thousand times – no.  Folks don’t create relationships with “professionals”.  They connect with real people.  And you want your emails to show that you’re “real people” – not some untouchable, high and mighty marketer.

 

A funny thing happens when you start communicating your heart to your subscribers.  They start writing back to you as if you’re their friend.  They listen when you recommend a product.  If you’re all excited and passionate about the next new widget… well, your readers are going to get psyched with you!

 

Too many folks send newsletters a mile and a half long.  That’s what we call in the South  “overstaying your welcome”.  When a friend opens your message, they know it’s not going to take all day to read.  Offer the same courtesy to your subscribers.  Give them a friendly hello, and get right to the meat of your message.

 

Above all, connect.  Share a little of your life in your emails.  It could be as simple as saying, “Man, I spent all yesterday entertaining the preschoolers who came to my daughter’s birthday party.  Am I ever pooped!”  Take time to wish your audience a successful week.

 

They’ll love you.  They’ll trust you.  They’ll feel comfortable buying from you.

 

After all, the way to a customer’s heart is – well, through their heart!

More Content Sites To Review...

New Page 2

Hi Again,

A few days ago I posted about Link Metro, a powerful place to build up your link ranking.  This time I'm just going to tell you a little bit about how you can profit big time from your increased traffic.

Sure, getting high rankings in the search engines is great, but what if you don't really have anything to sell?  A lot of traffic is one thing, but being able to profit off of the traffic, even if you have nothing to sell is totally awesome!  This is where Adsense fills your pockets!

I've talked to my buddy Tony at TonyRocks.com and he let me in on a few secrets of his.  He has been building niche sites that not only provide useful information but also generate huge cash with Google Adsense. Tony Tells me the money he earns from his niche content based sites is fabulous!  He is able to purchase gifts, buy dinners for buddies by pulling in extra cash monthly from Google Adsense.  Check out his content site based on Refinancing:

http://www.tell-me-about-refinancing.com

Tony not only has leveraged the power of content sites Adsense, but is taking it a step beyond by applying his techniques to Blogs.  Check these puppies out:

http://www.pricegouger.com  <-  Site revealing scams of all types...complete with content provided by Tony himself!

http://kayne08.blogspot.com <- Set up totally at no-cost and profiting off of the buzz that hip-hop artist Kanye West made with his colorful comments about George W Bush.

I've got to hand it to Tony.   He is one creative guy that always builds his creative business momentum.  Check out those sites and you will be inspired yourself by the power of Tony.  Tony Rocks for sure!

Mike, Can You Help Me?

Hi There.

   I am going ask you to take 2 minutes
before you read this email. It is
not a copy/paste HYPE...

   It is me, "Mike Filsaime", talking just
to You.


   So go make a coffee, hug the kids,
shut down or finish you current tasks,
and take the next 4 minutes to take
a break and read this Blog Post. O.K. ?

----



   O.K.
so you have your coffee in hand
or your Diet Pepsi :-0

   Let's get started...

   I have emails in my inbox, tickets
at my helpdesk. Replies on my Blog,
and guestbook.

   "Mike, can you help me, please? I want
to learn how to get a list. I want to
have a better lifestyle for my family."



   Well, there is a story, of a man during
a flood. He goes upstairs and hangs out
the window.

   The boats pull up and say,
"Jump in, we are here to save you,
come with us or you will drown!"


   He replies,
"It is O.K. God will save me."

   Then he goes to his roof, the boats come
to him and say,

  "Get in!"

   He replies again,

   "No, God will not let me down.
He will save me."



   He then, as the water takes his
roof, climbs to his chimney...

   A Helicopter crew says,
"Please, GET IN!! This is your last
chance! You WILL drown!"



   He replies,
"No, God will not let me down. He will
save me."


   He does not get in - He Drowns...

He DIES!

   Later, in Heaven, he sees God and
asks,

   "With all my faith in you, why did you
let me down and not come to my aid?"


God replies,

"My Son, I sent you a boat, a helicopter
and several men to try  to save you, you
were so blinded by you expectance of
help, you  did not see the results escape
right in front of you."



----

My point simply is, as a marketer,
I send you information very often and
sometimes it is "Hype" but many times
I am bringing the boat to your door.

So with no disrespect to those that
ask me for help, but here is YOUR BOAT.

I will be speaking at the:

*** MEGASEMINAR.com ***

This is a spectacular event! It is
not $1997, it is

What is better, it is a "No Pitch
Event"

So all the questions you want about
how to build a list, get traffic, make
money, have a better life, buy a car
cash....

It is all at this event.

- Great Speakers
- Affordable
- 100% Content

Your BOAT has arrived. Stop asking
for help. It is HERE...




My promise to you.

I will cut thru all the 'shi*' here
and talk to you like good friend.

Meet me in Denver, for only $495 and
I will buy you every drink at the bar,
your coffee or what-not, I will be around
on and off stage.

I will let you know EVERYTHING I know

in the reply ;)

P.S. - "A man prays every day to God to win
the lottery, and everyday he does not. This
goes on for 40 Years.. He is now 80 Years old,
he prays out loud to God. 'I am old, please
let me win! I have been asking for 40 Years!

He hears a voice from above...

'If you want to win, you must first
Buy A Ticket'

So, buy your ticket and maybe YOUR prayers
will be answered.

P.P.S. - Feel free to send FWD this article
to anyone you think needs it too.

Dead Real Estate in Your Marketing

Hello, I just wanted to share some ideas with you.

Did you notice when you watch a Yahoo, AOL, MSN video we
see commercials now?


Did you notice that behind baseball players we see ads on a
blue screen now?


Remember when pens just said BIC?


Remember when Movie Theaters just had a white screen before
the movie stared?


Remember when the mail receipt card from your local FREE
weekly paper just had postage on one side and blank on the
other?

Well, advertisers and businesses have found that not to
have an ad on the back of the mail receipt card, or behind
the Ball players was
DEAD REAL ESTATE.

Heck, soon Armand will be paid to wear a 1Shoppingcart hat
at his seminars, LOL (JK)


So there enters my point!

Do you have dead real estate in your marketing?

Here are some tips and examples you can use

:))
After someone opts in to your list. Why have a DEAD REAL
ESTATE page that says "Thanks for subscribing, click your
browsers back button."

Why not offer them one of your older ebooks for $19 just
this one time instead of $47 that they may never buy. Or
why not offer them an affiliate link for a related product.
You already have the opt in right?

:))
GURUS LISTEN UP!!!

Why send me an email that says:
"
you just made a sale. Great job!"

Why not include a P.S. with a copy paste email under it
with my link in it that says:


"P.S. I made it easy for you to make even more.
Here is an email you can send out to your list
as a follow up...

Dear {FIRSTNAME}, yester day I emailed
you about {dynamic_link), the response
was real good."


Oh you like that one huh? ;)

:))
If you are emailing them to let them know they made a
referral to the site but not a commission, do the same
thing. Or in that email,
have a TOP SPONSOR ad

============================
Sponsor add for
{targeted affiliate program}
{Affiliate Link}
============================


:))
How about when they log out from your membership site? Why
send them to the home page, DUH?? Send them to a Targeted
affiliate program.

How about when they use a site function like filling out a
form. Why say "thanks for filling out our form."

Why not rotate some banners above and below?

:))
When someone joins your FREE site, why send them right to
the members area, why not do a JV with someone and offer a
great package at a great price? (Just this once)

Hey these are just some ideas. I use some of them with one
time offers and I make nice side cash (enough to make a Car
Payment) with some of these little ideas.

So go thru YOUR sites and see if you have DEAD REAL ESTATE
on your sites :)

Talk soon!
