Feedback III: What Would Best Help You Achieve Your Goals?

Posted on June 23, 2007
Filed Under Posts | Leave a Comment

I do not have a very large budget to do all the necessary marketing that I would like to do. I am at this time using adwords and yahoo advertising on a very small budget. I would like to know of other types of advertising that would be of help, but not cost an arm and a leg at this time.

The right way of getting traffic to your affiliate website to make some money!

By giving guidance step by step…

I can achieve my goals sooner I feel if the information is in it simplest form. If you’re sure that the basics are known.

Instruct me on how to set up my website?

I am on dial up and until I get a website that i feel like it is legitimate and secure and of the better business bureau and then I probably want ever start nothing that I am not sure of. I have to make some money to spend some money. That is where I stand as of now. With the dial up I can’t get the videos to come up and play.

Be patient with beginners.

You can give me more audio coaching.

I am going crazy with info overload! Would really like to just delete all the garbage, but realy don’t understand the difference between garbage and important at this point.

Any advice you can give RE: Internet Marketing-how to get customers - keeping customers interested while still working on getting new ones will be appreciated . It would be good to receive tips on keeping a home business on an even keel. Thank you.

You’re doing a good job. The free information and mentoring are terrific. I also appreciate that you are not constantly trying to push products, yours or anyone elses. You are one of a very small number of professionals who actually help others without the constant bombardment of buy this, buy, buy. Offering your knowledge for free is truly a service to newbies like myself. God bless and reward you for efforts at giving back. Operable word: giving!

Your letters have given me a great opportunity to learn about profits online and make my goals a reality, just keep up with those great emails.

I know how to build a Web site, but I need information on uploading Camtasia, Sony Sound Forge, and Sony Vegas movie files to Web site.

As far as sending emails, some people just send them way, way too much. Information can come at ya so fast that you can’t keep up and then you fall behind. If it is something that I do full time, it would be one thing, but when I am trying to get things going part time, it is overload. This probably does not help you any, but it is the case. I want solid, step by step information that I can do in maybe a half hour in the evening when my brain is already exhausted from the day. In otherwords, very spelled out, nothing to guess, the video step by step sounds good. I want to put up a website for my ebook that looks very nice, very professional without having to spend gobs of money that I am not even earning yet with the book. But, with all the time it takes to keep my blog going, and creating book and workbook, etc., I have put off “forever” doing a website because of cost and or the time it will take me to figure out how to make it. So, if you can address this issue for me, it would be great!

Where do you find good Ezines to advertise in ? Where are good Opt in lists to use to get started? How to Build my own opt in list Auto responders usage and the drip system. It takes 7 to 10 contacts to make a sale. Writting those follow up e-mails is a problem. Who has the best Auto Responders service?

Gee, let’s see. Well, you could make me a gift of an amount in excess of 3.6 million dollars. Yep, that would help me achieve many of my goals!

I need to be led by the hand and spoon fed. I hate saying that but it’s a reality. Learning from one of the marketing gurus of today is like trying to learn basic math from Einstein. They don’t know how much they know that I don’t know so they skip lots of things. And I HATE it when the promo says it’s going to be simple and it’s NOT. I get into the meat and potatoes of one of these programs and it turns into a monster. Go here, go there, do this, do that, click on this, click on that. Spin away for a minute and look at this. You need to upgrade to this and then buy this in addition. What a pile of crap!! Whatever happened to going from a to b to c, etc in a straight line?

To your success,

Feedback I: How Can I Improve The Faster Webmaster?

Posted on June 17, 2007
Filed Under Posts | Leave a Comment

So I asked The Faster Webmasters what I could do to improve my product. The feedback I got was interesting. See below for part one of a three part series I like to call “Voice Your Opinion!”

It sounds easy… but it isn’t when you don’t know about Internet Marketing. I keep reading, trying to figure it out. It seems simple, I just don’t know what I am doing yet.

You are doing fine!

It’s hard to improve such a great product. Possibly doing a re-cap of each process would help. The student is following along and trying to do each step just as you say. By recapping in the video the process you just went through, it may help the student to see the flow of what he just did. Of course, You already give so much that this may be redundant.

You’re doing a great job! I’m just having a problem with finding enough time to keep up with all that I have going - Webmaster, Hosting, Autoresonders, Writing & Placing Classified Ads & Articles, reading & responding to emails, etc., etc., etc. But I’m lovin’ it! As soon as I’m making money, it will beat a J-O-B!!!

Recommend how to add payment and affiliate processing facilities (e.g. 1ShoppingCart)

You have a great course. It is very helpful for me in learning how to set up my site. I would ask that you slow down in your videos.It was hard to keep up on some things.

Timing of teleseminars. I live in the UK and 1:00am in the morning is not a great time to learn.

The Faster Webmaster is the only 1 of its kind. I don’t think you have missed anything. Great job!

To your success,
