Review: Worldprofit's Home Business Bootcamp Training with George Kosch, presented LIVE Oct 25, 2013.



Review: Home Business Bootcamp Training with George Kosch, LIVE on Oct 25, 2013.

George Kosch welcomed participants to the LIVE training session.

George kicked off the training by stating that a number of Members aren't following the training and aren't doing ANY promotion. This is shocking, because it doesn't matter what program you are in, if you aren't promoting you aren't making sales.

George was frank in today's remarks saying, I must be doing something wrong in my teaching. Every week I talk about promotion. I tell you what you must DO to make sales. I explain the importance of building a list. I show you where the best places are to advertise to get results. We provide you with ad examples, landing pages, banners, ad trackers and bonus builders for offers. It's just not sinking in, so for the next 30 minutes, I am going to try a different angle to drill in the basics of what you need to do, to promote so you can make sales."

99% of your effort should be in getting people into your "shop". What's your shop? The various landing pages for the various products and services. Why do you want to do this? The LIFE of your business is the number of leads you generate. Leads are what generate sales. Too may people focus on the wrong things when they first start their business by focusing on tasks that are not directly related to promotion and sales. Your first priority is knowing how to generate leads. Understand the basics of promotion, lead generation and list building and you can apply these skills to building ANY ONLINE business. If you don't understand the basics you will FAIL in any and all businesses you do.

Here's what you should do now to get on track.

1. Watch the two TRAINING videos for Beginners. Progress through the other lessons with careful study not speed. Take notes as you listen.

2. Start doing your promotions using the landing pages (ad examples) and trusted advertising sources provided in your member area.

3. Attend the LIVE bootcamp training sessions every week, OR, watch the recorded version if that is more convenient for you.

4. Commit to learning the basics, and learning new concepts every day, and doing your promotions consistently, every day if possible.

Become a NUMBERS Junkie!

1. Use the Ad Tracker to keep track of the number of clicks to your ads.
2. Keep track of the number of LEADS you generate each day.
3. Keep track of how many Associates you sign up each day.
4. Keep track of how many subscribers you have on your internal list, and your external lists.
5. Keep track of your sales numbers, per day, per week, per month.

Focus ONLY on tasks that will INCREASE your numbers above. Increasing your numbers increases your sales probabilities. People new to online marketing often don't understand how much CONSISTENT promotion it takes to generate sales.

Demonstration Segment

As an example of promotion and list building, George spent some time demonstrating how to use Aweber.

What's coming

Worldprofit's Landing Page Builder

With ONE CLICK you can INSTANTLY create Landing Pages for ANY and ALL your online programs!

1. Pick your landing page from the Gallery of choices (Video, Text, or Google Hangout)
2. Select a directory name
3. Customize your settings, heading, video URL etc. Integrate your lists, example Aweber/Get Response etc to build your internal or external email marketing lists.
4. Click SAVE and within MINUTES your landing page is completed and ready for use.

You can build your own unique landing pages for ANY business you are involved with.

Worldprofit's Landing Page Builder software will be released at NO COST to all Silver and Platinum VIP members within 14 days.

George relayed that our goal at Worldprofit, is to develop and support unique trusted tools and resources for our Members that can be used to build any online business.

A few comments from participants:

Why As A Student Investing Makes You More Money

Why As A Student Investing Makes You More Money

You may be wondering why as a student, investing would be a good thing to do. You have little cash coming in and a lot of expenses going out. Could you not wait until you're older, employed and no longer a poor student? Investing is one of those things though that pays you back, if you'll excuse the pun, disproportionately.

Thanks to the compounding effect you will get a much greater return by starting now instead of putting it off even 5 years for example. You see it's not just the amount you save over that period it's the fact that your investment will have grown along with the stock market. And by re-investing your dividend income you can see your investment account grow even faster.

Obviously the markets can go down as well as up but over the mid to long term it's fairly reasonable to assume they will rise. Just for the sake of an example the FTSE, one of the Worlds leading stock exchanges, at the end of Jan. 03 stood at 3567.4. Five years later it was standing at 5879.8 and that at a time of economic instability around the globe. Now as I said a moment ago markets can go down but don't see that as necessarily being a bad thing.

Ok that might sound like crazy talk but that's the reason you need to think like an investor. If you are in the market for the medium to long term you will see fluctuations - fact. But over time good quality stocks will always come good so if you can buy them when the price is low you will benefit far more when the market recovers.

If you decide to invest by making regular payments into a savings account you will notice the effect of compound interest even more. That's because you will be earning interest on interest you have already accrued. By using compound interest you can get your money to work hard for you rather than you working hard for your money!

One of the other great benefits of investing while you are in college is that it gets you into the habit. After all if you have the discipline to save when your earning powers are limited you will almost certainly be able to do it throughout your life and reap the financial rewards. That really is a great reason to begin as a student investing right now.

Loads Of Ideas For Making Video Marketing Easier

Loads Of Ideas For Making Video Marketing Easier

Have you ever though about promoting your business through video marketing? There is much more to it than just uploading videos and creating their destination. You must consider the different aspects of video marketing in order to be successful. Continue reading for a helpful guide when it comes to using video marketing techniques and strategies to help promote your products.

If you are too shy to show your face on the screen, you should try using something like Google Search Stories to help you. This is a good way to show your users all of the pertinent information you need to without worrying about having to show everyone your face.

Consider what others are wanting when they are searching for videos. Most people are looking for something entertaining as well as informative. If you are explaining how to do something, use inflections as you talk and give information that others may not know. It is also beneficial to show how to do something while talking.

If you have a brick and mortar store, don't think online videos can't work to promote your business. They can, and do. Start with a video tour of your shop, introducing yourself and showcasing your best products and services. Done correctly, video marketing can help personalize your business and reach new customers. So, turn on that camera and show the world why they should trade at your shop.

Do your best to create a video that conveys a professional image. This means you should avoid using the effects available on programs such as Windows Movie Maker and other basic software. Keep your editing simple by simply cutting or dissolving to a black screen instead of using standardized editing effects.

Place your video content on YouTube and link it back to your website. This can help your video be seen by a wide audience and potentially get shared and moved to the front page. The kind of exposure that YouTube provides, partly because it is owned by Google, is huge.

The most searched for topic online is how to do something. When you create one, you will be able to help people while showcasing your product. When they know you are an expert, they'll come back for more.

Explore Google Search Stories. This tool allows you to show your audience different things on Google such as results for a certain search query, pictures and maps. This could be a good way to document your online presence, show your audience your featured blog posts or create a guide to assist customers as they order your products.

Try to be honest and real in your videos. Unless the video is a professional video, it's okay to be imperfect. Practice your material before shooting and then go for it. You don't need to worry about editing out every little imperfection because people will see that you're honest and that they can relate to you. Just focus on getting the message across in a clear and concise manner.

Great audio and video equipment makes for a great video. If you use old crappy equipment, you'll get an effect you might not expect. That doesn't mean that effect isn't what you want, so play with the equipment you use until you get the video which matches the tone you wish it to have.

Now you should have a better idea as to how to use the different video marketing strategies to increase your profits. There was probably much more to video marketing than you thought right? Well, it's time to put your plan into action, and make those techniques work for you and your business.

Looking To Design A Website Try These Ideas

Looking To Design A Website Try These Ideas

Website design can be intimidating if you don't know much about the field. After you complete a few projects, you will improve your skills and find that it is not as difficult as it seemed. The tips which follow can help you to learn what you need to know to get started.

Make sure your site passes the NoScript test. Download and activate the NoScript extension for Firefox and see if your site is still readable. Some content, such as ordering systems for products, can't work without scripts, but if your site is simply blank with scripts turned off, that's bad news.

It may look pretty, but stay away from having too many animations on your site. Having your sales splash page rotate, spin and blink may look cool to you, but it will likely drive potential viewers away. When you add too many flashy splashes like that, it makes your site look amateurish which is not the message you want to convey.

Never underestimate the value of a site that is simple for visitors to navigate. Place your links so they can be found easily. Menus are another way to make site navigation easier on your site. Make sure that links to your main pages are on each page in your site so people can find their way no matter where they are.

White space is an important part of web design, so don't be afraid to use it. Cluttering up your web pages with too many images or too much text, or using a distracting background, will only irritate your visitors. White space can make the important elements of your page more visible.

If you believe your site may be accessed via mobile devices, you will want to keep your designs simple. The use of flash, excessive images, and complicated menus will not translate well to a mobile platform. Keep your page clean and simple, or create a specific mobile site for your users.

It does not matter how you have designed your website; you have to make sure that every file has a small file size. The reason behind this is because the file sizes will affect how fast your website loads. A website that loads more quickly is always a top priority in web design. You must also be aware that everyone doesn't have a high speed connection to the Internet. You want to perform a test to make sure your site performs well, even with dial-up modem connections.

Make sure everything is easy to locate on your website. Spend some serious thought on how everything on your site will be laid out. When content is randomly thrown on your site with little thought to the layout, you are making things harder for the people whose use of your site ensures your online success - your site visitors.

For your image tags, always try to include a brief description in the ALT attribute. Not only is this good for search engine optimization, but it is also beneficial to the sight-impaired users who rely on screen readers to describe image tag contents. Make your description short and as descriptive as possible.

While development platforms can ease the coding process, many are not as efficient as a plain old text editor. What a platform does is help you paste the code onto features that you have made. However, if you're wanting to minimize errors and have an excellent experience, you need to utilize a text editor.

As you can see, there is nothing mysterious about web design. It will be simple for you to create inspiring websites if you continue to learn about the technologies involved. If you just apply the techniques in this article, you should be up and running in no time.

At A Social Media Marketing Loss Try These Tips To Jumpstart Your Brand

At A Social Media Marketing Loss Try These Tips To Jumpstart Your Brand

At one point in time, many businesses viewed the world of social media as a playing ground for kids. Those days are long gone. In today's society, social media sites provide a valuable tool for marketing and branding any business. With such a level of importance placed on these sites, it is equally important to make your social media marketing plan an effective one. In this article we will give you a few tips for starting out right.

Near the top of your blog, add a Facebook "like" box. People will find it easier to like your page and give you more of a fan base. When you have this box on your blog, it makes it easy for your visitors to show their appreciation without being distracted from your page. This makes it simple for people and helps expose your presence more.

To help you attract more visitors, you should promote your site through niche social media sites. What's great about niche social media sites is that they can send you a lot of targeted traffic. Even if the niche site is small, it can still send you quality visitors who are more likely to purchase something from your site because they already have an interest in your product.

To create social media marketing materials that get noticed, learn how to write attention grabbing headlines. It does not matter how good your products or pieces are unless the headline is good enough to draw in a reader. Facebook fans are skimming over many posts within their feed. How do yours stand out worthy of a closer look?

Provide a way for people to sign up for email alerts when you post new blog posts. Whether you're just putting up a post rehashing a previous topic or writing about a new product, giving followers a way to stay connected works, even if this type of social media marketing is more recognized as older way to utilize Internet marketing.

Patience is necessary when creating a network through social media. It is extremely unlikely that you will have thousands of followers on your first days. It has happened in rare occurrences, but it is unlikely that you will receive viral following in just one night. Provide good content, frequently update your page and interact with your visitors and in good time you will gain a substantial following.

When dealing with social media marketing, make sure you are remaining active. You need to be seen if you want anyone to follow your profile. If you don't have any activity, then your social media campaign is not going to succeed. Being active can spark the interest of your followers and help you be more successful.

You will be more successful if you can come up with new and interesting content. People will share something they believe is worth their time or provokes a pleasant reaction. Look at successful campaigns and identify the type of content that people will want to share with their friends on social networks.

Social media is an immediate way to disseminate information globally. It can be used to effectively market and brand your unique product or service, and provide you with exposure to millions of potential customers. In the preceding paragraphs, a number of fundamentals about social media marketing were covered.

Do you know how to produce content that gets people worldwide to respond -- FAST? Read this and you will! The Master reveals his secrets!


Do you know how to produce content that gets people worldwide to respond -- FAST? Read this and you will! The Master reveals his secrets!

by Dr. Jeffrey Lant.

Author's program note. I'm going to do something quite different in this article; something unique, unprecedented, unheard of until now. I'm going to share -- for the first time ever -- my trade secrets about how I produce the best and most responsive content anywhere; the content that gets people like you to stop in your tracks, whatever you're doing, no matter how important, read what you've written... and respond to it.

Once you learn how to do it, you'll use this invaluable skill over and over again... becoming more and more proficient each time, until you become a master too, a brand name, a recognized authority, someone people want to know about, pay attention to; quite simply the consummate master of your craft, constant deference, increasing rewards, recognition and admiration your part, and rightly so. Of course, we'll need a little magic to make this happen; such magic is useful at any time. Now repeat after me...

" Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-boo/ Put 'em together and what have you got/ bibbidi-bobbidi-boo".

These are of course the words of my colleague Fairy Godmother, from the 1950 Disney production. She was, you'll recall, the kind-hearted, sympathetic darling who, in record time, organized everything necessary to rush a radiant Cinderella to the ball... and her prince.

You'll find the song in any search engine. Play it to yourself two or three times... sing it out loud. But don't share it with anyone just yet. After all, they may be a certified scoffer, gruff, dismissive, unhelpful... and that will never do. Bibbidi-bobbidi- boo. "It'll do magic believe it or not." Believe... it's the first and crucial step to achieve.

Pick your subject.

Creating content that gets maximum response starts with your subject, what you're writing about. Here are some suggestions: It should be timely, of interest and importance to the kinds of people you want to respond (future customers!), and most of all be a subject you either know something about already or one you are prepared to research, to add depth, resonance and layers of meaning.

The last article I wrote just yesterday (one of over 1000 I've penned in the last three years or so; all available at jeffreylantarticles.com) was on... marigolds. Does this seem to you to be an unlikely topic to knock out of the park? Dubious? Then think again! There are millions of people worldwide who grow marigolds, use health and beauty products derived from marigolds, and honor them in their obsequies and solemn rites of passage into eternity, particularly along the great river Ganges,1569 miles long, its muddy waters flecked by the bright brilliance of golden marigolds, beloved of the Virgin, the gift of countless pilgrims along the way.

Outline your content.

To write superior content, content that motivates response, you must create a superior outline. Here's how to do that. Brainstorm just what you want in your content; then do a preliminary outline. Don't worry too much now about whether the points you want to make are in the right order. Worry instead that you have written them down. Never, ever trust to imperfect memory. . Once you have all the points you wish to include, arrange them in the right order, the order that builds your case. To see what I mean, go to jeffreylantarticles.com and peruse several articles there. As you do, think on this. This teeming site, content capital of the world, now gets over 1,000,000 hits a month and should be a "must" destination for anyone who understands the importance of content and wishes to master its every nuance, profiting accordingly. That would be you, right? Bibbidi- Bobbidi-Boo.

The joy and necessity of careful research.

I am a trained researcher with a Ph.D. from Harvard University. It took me seven meticulous and arduous years to achieve. I had to identify, travel to, work in and rely upon the arcane resources of dozens of private and public document depositories in several countries. My life was a demanding and insistent process composed of passports, tickets, incomprehensible pre-Euro currencies, strange accommodations with lumpy mattresses (and too often voracious bedbugs). As for food... I can even now remember, and luridly recite if you like... the various collywobbles to which I gave way en route to being elevated into the peerage of learning.

That was then; this is now.

These days my continuous researches are vast, detailed, up-to-date, best of all the work of minutes, with nary a plane to (wait for) and catch... or odoriferous train, the malfunctioning toilet making its noisome problem known to all and always over shadowed by one frightening question, "Have you seen my typewriter and my notes!" "I thought you had them when we changed trains."

In our wired age research is easy, universal, distinguished by its celerity, thoroughness... and a researcher who now never looks like he slept in his clothes in the Iruna station, assaulted by fantastic mosquitoes and suspicious border guards, the jack booted minions of Generalissimo Franco, a man whose sole idea about intellectual endeavors of every kind (and the research on which they were based) was to crush, curb and curtail them.

The Internet has changed all that forever... and I, for one, am profoundly glad.

Now it's time to write.

My mother, bless her soul, had a million pet sayings, each one a little gem of pithy insight. As for writing, she'd say, for she was a scribbler, too, "Having written is better." What she meant, of course, was that the business of writing was often hard, frustrating, exasperating, not infrequently infuriating, and always something demanding full heart, soul and brain. In short, writing is never a piece of cake you can do half asleep and hung over from the night before.

Such writers, who take the demons of people like F. Scott Fitzgerald and Jack Kerouak as their inspiration and models, talk a good game about writing... but are more notable for their volubility on the subject than their productive output. You need another point of view, more practical, utilitarian, productive not to mention profitable.

Write every day, every single day... without fail or "reason" why you didn't.

People who understand the power and potency of content are people who do the necessary every single day to create it. That would be -- me... and is why in the past three years I have, remember, written and published over 1,000 articles, available for you and the world to see and use at jeffreylantarticles.com. How did these articles get written? Easy.

Yes, I wrote on days when it was blistering hot. I wrote on days when my nimble fingers froze, sticking to my computer's chilly keys. I wrote on days of national triumph... and on the many days of national confusion. In short, I wrote, no excuses, no special pleadings, no reasons why I couldn't, shouldn't and mustn't.

In short, I wrote on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays... on all the days. Thus with near military efficiency as I wrote words, so I wrote the superior content that got better and better still, the more I wrote... silky, smooth, sleek, the champaign of money-making language.

Will you do as much? You certainly won't with the poor habits you now evince in the high and important business of creating content that sells... for what you produce is directly related to the habits you have and yours are nothing to write home about.

"What me worry?"

Years ago "Mad Magazine" featured on its cover a lout named Alfred E. Newman. Everything about him was obnoxious, irritating, an affront to good parents everywhere and their goody goody rug rats. To these good people Alfred E. posed the question of the centuries, "What me worry?" It was impertinent, insolent, and wildly popular with other louts. (It also made the copy writer who coined this golden phrase a millionaire many times over.)

However YOU are not a lout... and you do worry and rightly so. Fortunately you have not only a useful friend in me but you have a direct line now to Fairy Godmother, who's no mean shakes in the content department, just ask those mice transformed into the most magnificent of coach horses. She has magic for you and to spare. I think I see her pointing her magic wand at...... you... Oh, yes, she is. Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo!

A lot of planning, knowing your competition as well as a thorough study of the market is necessary in starting your small business. These are very important points you should keep in mind in starting your small business. Select the best opportunities among the many, which do exist for beginning business owners. You can create or add to an existing business idea. Prepare a business plan. Finalize the plans on what kinds of business you want to have or do currently have. Gain complete knowledge about the market as well as investment opportunities with your company while preparing this business plan. Keep in mind that strategic consultants can prepare these for you but with an ironclad contract and they charge hourly for their services.

Family and friends

You might want to consider being funded through family and friends, financial institutions or banks. Each of these options needs some degree of authority over the money, which they lend to you for your small business.

How should I list my small business?

Register the business, which is when you will find out the rules and regulations of commencing your business. Keep a back up for your business by opting for small business insurance.

Do not forget Accounting and bookkeeping. From the beginning, you or someone you hire should keep the books on a regular basis. This will aid you in avoiding any type of future financial difficulty.

You have various options when searching for ways to finance your business. After the business plan is prepared, the next step should be arranging for the funds for your small business. Calculate how much capital will be needed while looking for the many options available. Remember you want to start a small business first look within your own personal savings. Other options to consider are banks and investors. Financial institutions and investors however will always ask for a share in the management as well as profits. You may need to also submit collateral as a backup for money given by these institutions.
