Know What People Want, So You Can Sell What People Want

"How to Make Money As An Info Product Marketer By Cashing In On
The Amazing Power Of 'The-One-And-Only.'"

Why You Don't Gotta Be A Rocket Scientist Or Extreme
Expert To Get Started In The Info Product Business -- And A Simple
Way To Cash In On Quick Hit Products You Can Create THIS Week!

Marlon here.

You know how when you get started as a newbie in this business you
don't know WHAT to sell, WHO to sell it to or HOW you are gonna
get started?

I'm gonna break it down for you today and give you a simple, easy,
non-threatening way to get started in this business.

First, you have the big boys on the block in any highly lucrative
market.

They pull out all the big guns -- sophisticated product launches,
video, high end membership sites, seminars, coaching.

This is the full arsenal.

And frankly, the skill level is beyond most beginners unless you
have exceptional talent.

There's another kind of player -- the Guerrilla player. This player
knocks off specific topics the big boys overlook or don't cover.

What they do is create little info products, PDF reports, ebooks,
teleseminars that cover very specific topics within the broad,
overall market.

The advantage of these products is they are fairly quick hits to
create.

The other advantage is you can round up 10 of the products into a
bundle and sell that. Or you can break them out and sell them
separately.

I'll give you an example: I've mentioned the market recently that
that teaches guys how to meet girls. And visa versa, girls and
women how to meet guys.

I ran across a site the other day that was cool. He isn't a big
name in the market. So he just is hitting topics that are very
specific that no one else is covering in as much depth.

For example -- the phone.

All guys DREAD calling that girl or woman they just met on the
phone to ask for that illusive date.

So what this guy did is created a little audio product JUST on
that. Only he added one twist to it that I thought was very
clever -- He KNEW guys get all nervous about picking up the
phone and CALLING.

So his little info product teaches them how to do it via
TEXT messaging! Brilliant. He just solved a big anxiety, a
big problem.

And no other "gurus" in that market teach guys how to do the
text game in as much detail (or hardly at all). So he took a
little simple method he'd discovered for getting dates by
text messaging and made a little $20.00 product out of it.

Yeah, no one gets rich off of a $20.00 product. But he does
sell bigger ticket back end stuff. And here again, he has
chosen the role of the GUERRILLA.

He picked a topic hardly anyone else is doing seminars or
big tickets on -- daytime. How to meet girls and women in
coffee shops, bookstores and other daytime activities.

So here he is in this crowded market. And he's founds some
topics to focus on that are not well covered by the big guns.

In Red Factor, I called these "underserved" markets for those
of you who are plugged into that body of knowledge.

Here's another one I spotted.

The point is, you may be new and wondering what YOU can sell in
a crowded market or in ANY market! The answer is to find some
topics that are IGNORED by everybody else.

Then you make those topics your specialty or the focus of your
ebooks, audios, interviews, teleseminars, seminars or whatever.

Now, I've built my whole business on what I call FLANKING moves.
These are similar to Guerrilla moves but are different. The
basic idea, though, is similar.

You sell to underserved markets. Vintage Red Factor thinking
there.

And if you're a struggling beginner wondering WHAT do you sell,
start looking for some little topics in a market that no one
else has done anything on.

That would make you the one and only on that topic.

I used to sign my name: Marlon Sanders, the one and only.

Now you know why.

I don't care HOW crowded the market. You can always find those
Red Factor opportunities, those Guerrilla topics, those Flanking
moves that no one else is covering.

It's a LOT easier to sell when you are the ONLY one with a product
on the topic!

One last example: There's a guy in the magic field who had a trick
that he stopped selling (because he got out of the trick selling
business). I've heard the trick now sells for $1,000 on Ebay.

The trick is a gimmick that lets you FLOAT a bottle without strings
attached. Most levitations of stuff that are close up involve
some sort of string, and therefore can ONLY be done with very light
stuff.

His levitation?

You can float heavy stuff like bottles. And you can do it close up.
And there are no strings used!

How crazy is that?

The point? Here's a killer trick with a SOLID USP. It's a great
little product because it's a "one and only."

I hope I've convinced YOU to consider being a "one-and-only."
And to start out in this business by doing little quick hit products
you can knock out in under a week. Or even a few hours.

Remember that little phone call product I told you about? It was
$20.00 and just a little audio the guy made. But it had great info.

He could get $39.00 for it or maybe $49.00 if he transcribed it into
a tidy little PDF.

Secrets To Surviving Tough Times

Heard of the saying :

Tough times don't last, but tough people will?

If your online business has been affected by the recent credit crunch and slowing economy, I hope you are not one of the herd of companies which has been cutting back on marketing and taking the suicidal route! Here's 5 tried and tested marketing measures to use in difficult times :

• Get back in touch with your subscribers
  Your subscribers are often the best source for new businesses. Sometimes sending a personal note is all it takes to rekindle a business relationship. If you want to do this through email, you can give old customers a special "welcome back" offer - a freebie, a discount, or a bonus when they resume doing business with you.


• Offer prospective customers a free sample
  This is obvious but frequently overlooked strategy that can improve your business. Everyone can use this strategy effectively. A consultant I know clinched a $10,000 personal coaching client by offering the 1st hour of his services for free.


• Focus your advertising
  Make sure your ads are in publications that reach your most prospective customers. Most importantly, make a specific offer and a call to action (with time sensitive offer) to get readers of the ad to call you or sign up FAST! (re-evaluate on the words you use on your landing page)


• Let your clients help you out
  Business is a two-way street. Some of your clients whom you have helped in the past will be glad to return the favor. (remember, a seedling will eventually grow into a tree!)
  Request testimonials and case studies from your clients. These can be used in your sales page and advertising online.


• Give extra attention to high-integrity behaviour
  If you think you are the only one who is nervous about things right now, you are not alone.
  To set yourself apart in the marketplace, go out of your way to conduct business in a trustworthy manner. Bend over backwards to be fair about refunds and exchanges. Do all you can to act in the best interest of your customers, even if it means referring them to your competitor. Do this only if you do not think you are the best choice for what they want.
  High integrity actions can hurt a little in the short term, but the payback is remarkably quick, making the sacrifice worthwhile.

Finally, in good times or bad, invest in educating your mind by reading business related books and articles from websites like this to increase your sales effectiveness and you will realize that by increasing on your marketing strategies, does not necessarily increase your expenditure...not only does it protect you from declining sales, but it also strengthens your business against the threat of deep-pocketed competitors, who may use these recessional times as an opportunity to outmaneuver you and steal valuable customers away from you.

Secret or Scam? Does Online Money Making Work?

Whatever you might call it...the money is in my bank! Just to encourage and prove to the skeptics that online affiliate programs do work and they do pay their business partners, no matter how small the amount...This is one of the checks I received this week from Derek Gehl of IMC !

For some of you who are holding back, thinking that Derek's affiliate programs are merely scams..it's understandable, with so much trash these days on the internet, it's hard to know which affiliate programs are scams and which holds the SECRET to Making Infinite Money Online...but think about it...doesn't most successful businesses start with trial and error at times? Even babies had to learn to have that occasional fall on the bum, before they took that 1st step to walk. So why is it, as we grow up, we allow our fear to overtake us? Do you know what F.E.A.R is?

False

Networking Secrets That Work

Many of us, online marketers tend to focus on getting traffic online via Syndication Networks like Traffic Swarm and Blogrush, which is good...but once offline, do we keep going at it? Do we continue to network and let others know about what we do? Here's a few tips to work the crowd....

• Plan to talk to 3 new people and gain 3 items of information. Find people on the guest list you would like to meet and introduce yourself to them.
• Remember that everyone there wants to network . The chances of rejection are extremely slim.
• Focus on people who are pleasant and welcoming.
• It is better to be interested than interesting. Let the other person do most of the talking. Be a good listener and encourage other people to talk about themselves.
• Small talk about travel, sports, hobbies or family- is the foundation of any relationships.
• Remember to ask for the other person's business card and for permission to call him/her later. Write down the agreed date on the back of the card...and transfer this information and any other useful information to a notebook, so that you are well prepared when making that vital folow up call.
• Last but not least : Know that you are a likeable person and 99 percent of the people in the crowd are as nervous as you. Believe in Yourself and your expertise. Most of all...Enjoy the networking session and have some FUN!

Click At First Sight

Why are some people more successful than others? The answer is found in their power to connect and persuade--and it all begins with a trusting 1st impression.

In fact, experts estimate as little as 15% of your financial success comes from your skills and knowledge, while 85% comes from your ability to connect with other people, generate trust and respect and fire their imagination. This applies in online marketing too..Here's what you need to take note of if you want to connect in business in 90 seconds or less:

• There is no such thing as failure. There is only feedback.
• The meaning of your communication lies in the response you get. You are 100% responsible for your communication, whether it succeeds or not.
• Experience has a structure. All behaviors follow a pattern, and you change the results.
• People work perfectly. The resources an individual needs to effect change are already within them.
• The mind & body are one system. You are credible when your body language, voice tone, and words are all saying the same thing.
• When people like you, they tend to see the best in you and look for opportunities to say "yes". When they do not, the opposite is true. They make that decision in the 1st two seconds of seeing/hearing you/reading your sales pitch, if it's an online marketing program.
  
• People like people like themselves. We tend to trust, like and feel comfortable with people with whom we share common traits.
