If you’re doing business online, you want to know anything and everything you need to know about accepting online payments. I’ve personally been with Paypal since 2000 and I’ve had a couple of problems with paypal along the way when it comes to stalled payments.
I’m sharing this with you because YOU NEED TO KNOW how to avoid hiccups if at all possible. There’s nothing worse than receiving payments and you can’t access them because your account has been frozen! I encourage you to NOT overlook this as some means to make you spend money, it is what it is and a hard head, makes a soft catootie, LOL!
While every marketer’s situation is different (because you may not have ever had a challenge with collecting funds), there is nothing written in stone that you might not experience it. It’s better to be in front of challenge instead of “after the fact” trying to figure out what to do at a point of crisis right? Oh and before you read on, this is definitely not a scare tactic, it’s purely information on how to keep it from happening.
With that said, I jumped on the computer for a few minutes yesterday (after spending a fun-filled day with my Mom and siblings) and saw an email from Maria Gudelis talking about how Paypal froze over $100k of their funds! And, how Tina’s daughter experienced a temporary setback at the gas station of all places! Here’s a little of what she said: [click to continue…]
This week has been an exhausting, however, good week! You’ll see what I mean when you look at this 2 minute video inviting you to my Sales Funnel Webinar coming up next week. I was so tired when I created the video – but, I was determined to create a “live” invitation just for you…
With that said, I sure hope you’ll consider joining me on Thursday, May 10th…
One of the most important things about the sales funnel is getting targeted prospects into “the mouth” of the beginning stages of your sales funnel.
Why?
Your free offer whether a free report, recording, webinar, teleseminar, etc. is what compels your potential customer to part with her contact information — at the very least, her email address and first name — or (if you’re presenting a direct paid offer) her cash and payment details. Once your new subscriber has initiated this action into the sales funnel, she’s taken the first step to bonding with you — and it’s up to you to make sure she never regrets that decision.
Once you have established the contact, here are three suggestions you should pay close attention to:
You need to keep yourself in your subscriber’s field of vision. (It’s like meeting someone and really hitting it off… If you keep actively in touch and work at the relationship, you stand a chance of becoming good friends with that person: However, if you don’t see them again for six months, they may not even remember who you are, the next time you bump into each other.)
Your timeline should never be “forced”. It’s good to tailor it a little and it’s not as random as it may seem to your subscriber, but it should never feel to the subscriber as if you’re bombarding them with emails. Your frequency of contact should feel totally natural to the subscriber, the way an email from your friend would feel. [click to continue…]
I thought about writing a message on the Naked Faith Series but instead, I recorded an audio. It is so refreshing to see so many messages on encouragement, faith, authenticity, love, and transparency. I read the other day how “trials test our foundation,” and if we find ourselves on faulty foundation, we still have time [...]
I know you’ve heard this over and over, “know your target market” right? But just what is target marketing? Wikipedia explains it better than I’ve seen anywhere: begin quote: A target market is a group of customers that the business has decided to aim its marketing efforts and ultimately its merchandise towards. A well-defined target [...]
