Boomerang therapy for marketers and entrepreneurs

By | Entrepreneur, Main Content, Success, Time management and productivity, Writing

Leave a Comment

Are you too busy being busy?

I have been lately.

Craziness at its finest…

But it pains me to admit something.

The most therapeutic thing I have done over the past 5 months, I have been slacking on.

Writing.

Daily.

Nothing has proven itself to be more beneficial to my business, my client’s businesses, and my head-space.

VERY, very therapeutic.

Yet I let busy-ness get in the way.

Battling my way back now.

What about you?

When you find a ritual that brings you success, do you ever struggle keeping that ritual going?

Much like my writing, your ritual may be writing, or blogging, or videos, or phone calls.

Are you slacking on them?

Here is a quick and easy solution.

It works best if you use Gmail.  But there are ways you can set it up in any of your mail systems.  If you use Gmail – get this plugin http://www.boomeranggmail.com – (not an affiliate link) – it is pure brilliance!  What it does is allows you to set reminder emails to yourself at whatever frequency you want. Or you can “Boomerang” an email that comes to you for a later date (not urgent today, but may be in a week – Boomerang it to email you again in a week).  There are so many ways to use this wonderful little tool, I can’t even begin.

Once you have Boomerang setup – schedule an automated reminder to come to you every 14 days.  In it describe whatever your goal is.  Want to write daily? Set it up in Boomerang to remind you daily. Want to make more phone calls? Reminder yourself daily.

It actually helps you hold yourself accountable.

If you are constantly being reminded to do something, chances are you will.

It is a beautiful thing and I hope you give it a go.

I have and love it.

Have a great day.

The puzzles and the plates (with some hidden gold in between)

By | Main Content

Leave a Comment

Last night I was over at a friends place for a bit.

They were gearing up for a garage sale and were going through their stuff.

There was a box of small, thin boxes that I asked about.

My buddies girlfriend said it was some old plates she was going to try and “pawn off” at the garage sale.

..but something didn’t look right.

The smaller, thinner boxes looked kinda special.

So I opened one.

Lo-and-behold…

…here were 10 Bradford exchange plates with certificates.

Authentic porcelain plates, delicately packaged, with certificates of authenticity and #s associated to the plate.

To me, that isn’t a plate you sell at a garage sale for $0.25!

It sounds like it could be worth some damn money… TIMES 10 of them.

She agreed :O)

No more garage sale – now its off to ebay or a collectors site they go.

Then another box of “old puzzles” was discovered.

She also was tossing these to the garage sale pile.

But my buddy is a puzzle freak, and started looking at these things.

There were about 8 or 9 of them – from the mid-60s – UNOPENED.

Again – to her they were junk, but to a collector they could be gold.

My point?

Inside these seemingly junk boxes were some real treasures.

That could be worth some serious coin.

I bet you have them too.

Inside your customer data.

Golden pieces of information that could be worth a BUNDLE to you.

…if you know where to look and how to find them.

My Facebook Jumpstart course is almost full – and it shows you HOW to find the gold, and WHAT to do with it when you find it.
http://blog.smallbusinesscopywriter.com/facebook-ads-training/

Me thinks this is worth FAR more than the minuscule $39 I am asking.

ONE single golden find is worth 10… maybe 100 TIMES the investment.

When you find it – you will immediate see the niche marketing potential.

And when you see that… a whole new world opens up.

Sounds simple.

Here’s how you start…

Have a great weekend.

Facebook ads training

By | advertising, Copywriting, Facebook, Main Content

 Are you using Facebook Ads?

facebook ads training

If not… WHY NOT?

They can be a very effective way to drive targeted traffic and find incredibly valuable demographics information on your ideal prospects and clients.

In a 2012 survey, 43% of B2B companies and 77% of B2C companies reported that they have acquired a customer through Facebook.

I am working on a project right now in a specific niche, and Facebook advertising is a part of the lead generation efforts. I targeted a specific geographic area, set my daily spend low to start, set my targeted likes and demographics… then let it loose.

And it bombed.

So I rewrote the ad, put a different picture in, refined the targeting.

Nailed it.

Got exactly what I wanted…

…good click through rates, good landing page results, and some VERY telling demographic information.

Facebook has some exceptional demographic reporting. I found out that a certain sex between 45-64, that live in 4 Canadian provinces are VERY good prospects for me.  They clicked the highest and responded the highest.

Now I can refine my ads and target JUST THEM.

So I eliminate the money I was spending on the wrong age groups and wrong provinces… while narrowly targeting my most likely prospects.

The results are exceptional when you do measured and targeted marketing like this.

Are you?

You know you should… and NOW is the time to start!

 Announcing the Facebook Jumpstart Series…

Where you get ads up and running quickly and inexpensively on Facebook.

The place where you find out:

  • how to design the ads
  • how to write ads that make money and attract the RIGHT type of prospects
  • what types of pictures to use
  • what types of pages to send your prospects to
  • how to measure response
  • how to dig into the demographics report to uncover hidden gold and money
  • how to refine your ads based on your demographic research to get stellar clickthrough rates and buyers
  • …and much, much more.

This series is 3 calls of 45 minutes each. One call a week.

  1. You get access to the webinars.
  2. You get access to the recordings
  3. You get access to the transcripts
  4. You get BONUS gifts:
  • Small Display Ads report (sells for $20) – which gives you some insider tips on generating leads through advertising
  • Turning your words into wealth (sells for $49) – formulaic blueprints for writing ads that sell
  • Surprise recordings never before released (including an interview with the $7 billion dollar man on how to use stories in your sales for exceptional results – works AWESOME for Facebook marketing!)

…And you get a bankable blueprint for generating leads and sales when you need them

 

Lets get realistic though.

I like no BS… and here it is.

Do not expect to make a million dollars with your first Facebook campaign. Even your first ad or three may BOMB. That’s part of the process. I have been writing ad campaigns for a decade now and get very frustrated with people who believe in the fairy tale nonsense the BS slingers throw around.  You probably won’t get it exactly right the first time – but it can and has happened.  You need some extra money for testing ads on Facebook (you can set your daily ad caps as low as $1 – I recommend starting your campaign with a $5 a day budget and growing it from there, based on results).

I won’t feed you bull.

And I won’t put up with bull either.

I have invested many, many tens of thousands of dollars in my training over the past decade.

I have written hundreds of ads, sales letters, and lead generation campaigns.

And I have made my clients many, many millions of dollars (you can see testimonial at the link near the top of page).

Advertising and marketing is not about trying something once and giving up… complaining the entire time about how it “doesn’t work”.

IT DOES WORK. You need to figure out how to MAKE it work for you, your business, your product or service, and your offer.

That means investing some time and money. Not much money I am asking for a decade worth of experience in writing ads and campaigns that produce results.

A whopping $39.

Others are charging $799 for Facebook training.

But I have invested in them and feel they are far too deep and advanced for what most people want.

I specialize in the entrepreneurs out there.

Those with limited budgets and time.

People who just want to get it up and running quickly and easily without all the stuff they may nbever need.

EXACTLY what this is.

You will be up and running with one or more campaigns in this time.

You will have clicks to analyze.

You will have demographics research to fuel further marketing and refine your message.

You will have a system that you can run for years to come.

…feeding you leads when you need them.

Facebook DOES work… and I will show you how.

IT STARTS MAY 8th.

I am only accepting 30 people in the program… so capacity is limited as I want to be able to provide question and answer help to everyone in the program.

PAYPAL PAYMENTS

 

or…

REGULAR CREDIT CARD THROUGH THIS LINK

Join me in this Jumpstart program!

You will discover a simple and fast way to attract quality clients and prospects.

See you there.

Calgary Entrepreneurs

NOTE: If you know anyone that lives in or around Calgary, Alberta

This Friday we have a very special opportunity to learn from the 2 top sales people in Immunotec.  You may have seen me mentioning some work I am doing in the dog market… this is where it all begins. The full story is after the event details (I tend to get excited and write a lot, so making sure you get the details first).

John Solleder, plus Sandi Walper will be in Calgary, Friday night 7pm – 9pm

If you like dogs...and money... you'll LOVE this!

If you like dogs...and money... you'll LOVE this!

at the Executive Royal Inn Hotel & Conference Centre, Calgary
2828 – 23 Street NE, Calgary, AB

Business Presentation & Training with Special Guest, Senior Platinum Consultant, John Solleder, Platinum Consultant, Sandi Walper, Regional Sales Director, Elisa Wickersham

Anyone you know that might be interested in improving  their health, want to start a home business, or into the dogs, cats or horse markets… get them to come on out.

We get to listen in as the top income earners in the company talk about how you can model their  systems, how you can make a part or full-time income in this business in a systematic way, plus how you can help people (and pets) improve their health. 

This is a training and promotional event.  You and your guests will learn proven techniques for building an Immunotec business, while discovering some of the fun things that this business can bring into your life.

As you may have seen by now, Immunotec is not a hype-driven company the way many in network marketing are.  Which is one thing I really appreciate about this company.  They are a product
and research driven company that succeeds based on proven facts, and measurable results from their clients…not by how much hype they can bring into the field.

Friday is a No BS evening and solid information will be shared.

Please tell those you know about this.

Make sure we meet up on Friday while you are there!

…story continued…

A year ago I was told by a good friend and business associate about an immune system builder.  I started taking it and loved it.

Not only did my energy go up in a big way, I also avoided all colds, sniffles, flus, etc in the past 13 m0nths.  Considering my 11 year old twin daughters were always bringing home colds and coughs, I made out great.

March 2012, after taking this for a year I found out it works the same with dogs as well.  Being a dog lover, and an avid marketer, I saw this as a great opportunity for me. Help dogs see the same benefit that I and thousands of others had! Simple enough.  The company itself has researched the product and animals and humans for 34 years…and been selling Immunocal for 17 years. Not only did I have a great product with $100 million inn research behind it (!), I had a great home business other people and dog lovers could start.

Dog Park Dollars was born and some fantastic things have been happening since.

I was the #1 distributor in Canada in my first month of actually promoting the product for them.  Now in my second month and am determined to hold the #1 spot!

Plus, I have already had GREAT testimonials from dog lovers.  Duchess (aka Squeaky) was born a runt and barely alive.  She has THRIVED in just a couple weeks on Immunocal – her full story here.

Duchess (Squeaky)… what a difference 18 days of solid nutrition can do!

If you want to help your own pets live longer, healthier, and happier… maybe you even want to build a home business while youre at it… this is a great way to do it.

Join me Friday night at this event and I would love to meet up after to answer any questions you have.

Thanks,

Troy

403.259.4566

PS: Special marketing GIFTS for anyone and everyone who joins us at the event.  Just let me know you found me here, give me your email address or phone #, and I will send you some gifts to help you make more money this year. 

You will receive: my Small Display Ads report (sells for $20), the 2007 and 2008 Wild West Wealth Summit mp3 recordings (recently sold on a one-time special for $29 – now back to regular price at $299), and my Turning Your Words Into Wealth ebook (sells for $49).

Would LOVE to see you there!

Friday the 13th…

…gotta love them!

My day is looking like a lucky day and I am pumped about whats
happening already.

Whoever said 13 was a bad # is completely whacked. My sister
was born on the 13th and she turned out pretty good :O)

Funny thing about Friday the 13th…

…According to folklorists, there is no written evidence for a
“Friday the 13th” superstition before the 19th century

We invented it.

Just like any good reason for a celebration… create one!

Some interesting things about today (things you can use on your
blog or newsletter today):

* In many cultures, 13 is generally considered a lucky number

* The Dutch Centre for Insurance Statistics (CVS) on June 12,
2008, stated that “fewer accidents and reports of fire and theft
occur when the 13th of the month falls on a Friday than on other
Fridays, because people are preventatively more careful or just
stay home

* Some events are intentionally scheduled for Fridays the 13th
for dramatic effect.

They include:

• Black Sabbath’s eponymous debut album was released in the UK
on Friday, February 13, 1970.

• The 13th book in A Series of Unfortunate Events was released
on Friday, October 13, 2006 by Lemony Snicket, also known as
novelist Daniel Handler.

• Five of the twelve films in the Friday the 13th series,
including the most recent (reboot of the series), were released
on a Friday the 13th.

• A long-running theatrical show, Supernatural Chicago,
premiered on Friday, February 13, 2004.[19]

• AdventureQuest Worlds MMORPG features special in-game events
featuring Voltaire (musician) and other guests for each Friday
the 13th.

==========================================
So in honor of the LUCKY Friday the 13th,
I am offering a special deal to 13 people only.
==========================================

now). Turn your stories into wealth and master the fine art of

My Grand-dogs were in the movie 2012

By | Main Content, Marketing on the web, Success

Leave a Comment

Who’d a thunk it?

But it’s true…

…my Grandmother’s Welsh Corgies were stars in the movie 2012.

Kinda cool, hey?

My Grandmother, Jill, is one of the few Welsh Corgie breeders out on the West Coast of British Columbia.

So when the directors were trying to find some Corgies to play the part of the Queen’s dogs in the movie, they called my Grandmother.

Not only did they pay her very well for bringing the dogs to the set for a week or so, they put her and the dogs up in a nice place, fed them and pampered them.

Not a bad gig.

If you saw the movie 2012, you may recall when all the World Leaders and Billionaires were being loaded into the “Arks”, the Queen was there with her infamous Corgies.

Ya, those were my grand-dogs.

Stars!

Actually, their roles were about 2 seconds worth… but they were still stars in a $769 million dollar movie.

Are you a dog lover?

If so, you need to be on the call I am hosting tomorrow night.

Sign up and get the details below.
