Most successful entrepreneurs will say they have multiple computer home businesses. You may ask yourself why you would need to diversify by creating more than one business, niche, or specialty.

Warrior Forum: A Necessity For Internet Business Enthusiasts

I started my internet business with the guidance of a business package I purchased. One of the best outcomes from the business package was a referral to the Warrior Forum. If you haven't gone and checked this site out, you are ignoring a powerful internet business tool.

(You can click the link on the side bar to access this forum)

The guide I purchased introduced the Warrior Forum to me as a purely great way to advertise my business. While I have a signature file that refers people to my website and blog, and you can make money by offering up your products in special sections of the site, I don't go there for the advertising. I go there to learn and exchange ideas.

Today, I looked at someones website. They were wondering why it wasn't converting customers. I checked it out, and let her know what I thought as a customer. Where else can you find that kind of free online help for your internet business?

As you cruise around the site you will encounter many of the same people. You will find people who have wonderful advice, people who are funny, and people who are there just for the links to their website (they don't seem to last long because they get ignored by the regulars)

As you get used to the format, you will learn to love the information offered.

Today, someone had a question about getting traffic to their website and one of the more experienced warriors im'd them some info, another one listed a page of cheap traffic tricks and tips. All this info is free. People there will help you with your questions and give you tips on how to improve your internet business.

Again, Click the link on the right labeled Improve Your Business By Becoming A Warrior!

Your profits will only increase as you learn what is taught there. Hope to see you there soon!

Great New Book About Writing Great Ad Copy Can Help Ensure Your Internet Business is Profitable!

Great books are sometimes hard to come by. Especially, great books that can help improve your internet businesses profitability.

Side Notes: You may have noticed I have a link to amazon.com on the right side panel of this blog. I'm mostly split on buying books online. I get impatient waiting for the book to show up on my door step which leads me to the local book store a lot of the time. Then, when I get home, I realize my impatience cost me an extra 10-20%. Amazon is awesome and gets their orders out the door pretty quickly.

So, I love to read and learn new things. My most recent epiphany when it comes to running a profitable internet business is to read books about writing better online copy. To help me with this task I bought "Content Rich" by Jon Wuebben. His book is simplifying the online writing process by educating readers about how to tweak their writing styles to be more internet appropriate.

Believe it or not, people read differently online. It's not like reading a book where every word is absorbed by the readers mind. People online 'scan,' they don't read. I do it, you do it, everyone does it.

So, as internet business enthusiasts, we need to augment our writing styles and morph our copy into being 'scan friendly.' I'm not advising you to erase your copy, just reorganize it. Don't eliminate important information. Use bullets and numbers. You can also use bold and italics to make visitors eyes draw to the most important elements of your website (be careful not to go overboard).

I have done so much research involving studying website organization and noticed that most people online feel that being wordy will make visitors view them as smart and an industry leader. To be honest, I usually exit overly wordy sites because I don't have the time their site's require to read it all. Have you ever left websites for the same reason? I usually find a competitor of theirs that simplifies the copy and makes it 'scan friendly' and then I buy the products from them.

Don't create a Website people want to exit. Make it easy to navigate, interesting to read, 'scan friendly,' and, most important, make it easy for visitors to purchase your products.

I highly suggest getting Jon's book. It may not be the most captivating information you will ever read, but it will be one of the most profit launching tools you use. If you want your internet business to be profitable, you will need to learn how to write for the internet. Jon's book is going to do that for you. Click the link on the Amazon Icon on the right to go to amazon and order your book today!

Good Luck, Kirstin Filliez

Read The Terms & Conditions Before You Act On Subscribing to Programs!

I know this sounds rudimentary, but I'm going to say it anyways: Always Read the Terms & Conditions When You Sign Up for Programs, Buy Products Online, and Use different Forums For Your Business!!!!

I'm not the only person that gets bored to death when reading all of the t&c's and I'm not the only person that has been burned by my laziness. If you have ever bought anything online, especially when starting an online business, you know how easy it is to just hope that everything is 'straight forward' and that everyone you do business with is ethical and honest.

Unfortunately, the terms and conditions pages are where companies now list their ways of manipulating you out of money. They are overfilled with mostly useless information and they sneak the 'catch-22' into the middle of it.

For Example:

I recently bought a "how to..." software when trying to learn more about Excel and increase it's usefulness in my life. I paid like $14.95 for the free 15 day trial. I got the package after about 5 days and tested it for a couple days. After trying it I realized it wasn't for me so per the terms of the 'free' trial, I obtained a RMA and sent back the disc. Well, the business charged me $189 for the program and that was 2 months ago. I called back within the time period and everything. When I again inquired about my refund, which should have been completed last week, the guy said he will get it to me in 15 business days. Really? That will be almost 3 months of interest accrued on my credit card for this program.
In summation, they really didn't want me to try their program. They wanted to trick $189 out of me. There is no way that with shipping and handling (both ways) that you can test the product. The guy on the phones response to my frustration is that I could have called to extend the trial. My Response: "If I wanted to call your stupid business, I would have ordered the product over the phone. I use the internet so I don't have to call! You know that the time allotted isn't sufficient to try the product and your business strategy is designed to manipulate, instead of earn, money out of my pocketbook."

Besides vocalizing my frustrations, there is little else I can do. I buy lots online, but this was my first attempt at a 'free trial.' While 'free trials' are a useful and economical way to sample, they are also not as awesome as they seem when you read the t&c's. Be careful online. Don't let businesses get your money this way. I personally call it unethical, they call it 'legal.' In the end, I know what my retaliation will be: they lose my business. I was going to order a more expensive product about online business from this company, Video Professor, but they have proven that they are not interested in providing excellent customer service. They took my money and aren't giving it back even though I followed their rules. (I did send the package back w/in 15 days, the post office delivered it 5 or so days after my allotted time period, but by then I had a rma so they new I wasn't keeping it....bastards, it was essentially impossible to succeed in following their t&c's).

I wrote this to vent. I won't lie. But I also want my readers to be sure to stay alert when they are enlisting in programs and buying stuff online. Read the Terms and Conditions and make sure you follow them to a tee because the companies don't want to give you your money back.

Hope This Helps!

Every Little Promotion You Do Online Supercharges Your Internet Based Business

You need to go online everyday to market your business. If you don’t do something everyday, your internet based business could stagnate. When your business stalls, so do your profits. By using my secret methods for staying organized and involved in marketing, your business is sure to flourish.


1) Keep a Notebook Close by Whenever You’re Working Your Internet Based Business.

When I started my online business I kept pursuing marketing strategies recommended by top internet masters. My initial problem was that I didn’t keep track of the website’s I posted to, amounts I paid, and tools that were helpful. Many things I’ve done twice because I followed one guru down a path then another guru down a similar path.

I’m glad I made this mistake because now I have a great organizational method that keeps all my marketing efforts organized. I have 1 notebook filled with every website I come across that could be a beneficial marketing tool, my top keywords, guru’s to look to for help, and anything else dedicated solely to marketing by business and creating web presence. My Internet Based Business got organized once I did this.

Even better, when a night comes where I can't thing of something new to do to better my business and increase my traffic, I turn to my notebook and pick 2 or 3 things to do that will help me achieve my goals. This way, not a day goes by where there is writers block or promoters block. In your notebook include article topics that you think of and different groups you may want to research promoting your business to. The opportunities are endless.


2) Keep a Daily Journal of What You Did to Help Your Business

By keeping a daily log containing everything you've completed on a daily basis will help you notice, after even the first month, how far your internet based business has progressed. You can track your errors, track websites you investigated but didn’t act on, and write down pricing and benefits of resources you use or may want to use in the future. If you create a new classified, write it down to remember the ad you put out that day and track its success in future journal entries. All of this will document how you obtained web presence, how you overcame obstacles, good ads, great decisions you made, and whom helped you along the way.

When you look back after a month you will notice that Every Little Promotion You Did Online Supercharged Your Internet Based Business. Not only will the sense of accomplishment push you to go even further and do even more for your business on a daily basis, but you will be able to see success when you compare your business stats now to what they were when you started.


Cheers for Today,

If Your Business Is Going To Be Successful, You're Have To Study and Read!

"I Don't Want To Survive, I Want To Live"
~ 'Wall-E' - 2008 - Jeff Garlin

A past friend of mine spent an enormous amount of time and money to get her Law Degree. I always thought her pursuit of the cherished jurist doctorate was a bizarre choice for her because she disliked reading and didn't have a passion for law. How will you ever be a happy, or maybe even more importantly, successful lawyer if you don't enjoy reading or have a passion for law? It seemed like her $100,000 may have been better spent chasing after something that would have been more enjoyable for her. To her it was about getting a higher degree, not about being a lawyer.

I would rather choose a career that let me live out my dreams and do something I enjoy. Don't get me wrong, I've worked jobs I hated and spent time pursuing a career that was not fulfilling. I just don't understand why people would invest so much time and money into one career path that wasn't directed toward your true passion.

My friend rationalized it by saying her law degree could be documented on any resume and increase her chances of getting the job. Maybe so, but it seems like an irrational and expensive way to go about getting a good job. How is a $100,000 investment and 4 years of life spent pursuing a degree you don't want a good life decision?

The internet accomplished a major feat for our society. You don't need to be like my friend and follow a career path that won't fulfill you. Think about the things you like in life:

Is it golf?
Is It Cosmetology?
Do You love Animals?
Is Sailing You Favorite Hobby? ETC>>>>

The list goes on and on, but you get my point. Now, with the internet, you can take your favorite hobby and translate that into a website or blog that talks about anything and everything to do with your true passions. Through that forum, you can sell products and information to people that share your same interests. This won't cost you years of your life slaving away in school. It won't cost you an immense amount of money. It will only take a few hours a day dedicated to learning about internet business and marketing.

I suggest using Colleen's Blog Inferno
to help you get started. This is an inexpensive, step-by-step tutorial on how to make money from blogging. I first found out about Colleen on the Warrior Forum and she attracted me to her because of her honesty, the support she got from other warriors, and the inexpensive cost of her program. I bought it and refer back to it often. She is friendly for the non techie, so don't worry if your not a computer wiz.

So, don't just survive in life. Money is not so hard to come by that you need to be miserable while earning it. I suggest everyone survive in life. Do what you love and the rest will fall into place.

Cheers,
