The Massive Potential Of A Single Article

But you know what, you don't need to submit 10 to 15 articles per day and 10,000 per year if you understand the massive potential of a single article. The secret to successful article marketing is to exploit each article and optimize it to full use. Most marketers would write an article,submit it to article submission sites, and do nothing more! As soon as they find out that what they have written didn't get maximum response, they set out to write another article (and spend another sleepless night proofreading it). No, that's not the right way to do it.

You can write only one to three articles per week and that is more than enough to raise your traffic and revenue. Here are some of the things that you can do to a single article:

1) Submit it to five (5) article submission sites

2) Post it in five (5) to seven (7) discussion forums

3) Post it on your blog in social networking sites such as Myspace, Friendster, Multiply, and Facebook

4) Post it in your blog

5) Send it to your autoresponder mailing list

6) Send it to Ezine publishers

7) Compile all your previous articles and out it in PDF format (you can sell it as a cheap ebook later)

8) and many other inexhaustible ideas!

Idiot's Guide To Generating A Traffic Avalanche

But my point is, generating traffic does not have to be a rocket science or insurmountable task. It doesn't have to be an activity that only the select few "gifted" people know how to do. If you have a website, blog, replicated website, profile page, Youtube channel, Myspace profile, or any kind of web presence, then you already probably know that traffic generation is a must. You probably already know the basics to it.

You must understand that traffic is everywhere. There are now hundreds of millions of people surfing the internet daily. And yet, a lot of marketers complain that they don't have traffic to their site! Can you imagine that?

If you want to see where the cars go, then you should go take a walk on the highway, isn't it? The same on the web. There are so called traffic "highways". The first highway is the search engines. The second is article submission sites. The third is ad spaces. The fourth is Web 2.0 sites. There are many others.

The key is to choose the "highway" that you like, and focus your efforts on that particular highway first. You will notice that generating traffic in each highway is different from each other. But as you gain experience and skill, you will be able to generate traffic like you're just taking breakfast.

The 5 Main Reasons Why Network Marketers Fail

Human beings are complex creatures and so it is always a little risky to make general statements. Over time, however, a pattern emerges and we can get a very good idea why so many people start this business and then drop out.

1. Mishandling of rejection from close family members and their warm market - When someone is first introduced to the concept of Network Marketing they become very motivated, mainly by the income possibilities to start recruiting right away. Most companies will teach you to start with a list of your warm market and work from there.

Even though this is a logical route, rejection from this group can be very discouraging and most people stop there. This means that the majority of recruits will give up after speaking with their spouses for example.

Only lately has Network Marketing become recognized as a viable and respected profession and many are still quick to cry, "Oh! You mean a pyramid scheme". This comes because of the negative press that many famous companies have received and the general misunderstanding of the public.

2. False expectations for too early results with too little effort - Depending on the way in which the business is presented, one can get the impression that there is not much effort involved. I mean, just get two who gets two and you can become rich.

When early recruits realize that considerable networking and marketing is involved in Network Marketing, disappointment quickly sets in. There is work involved, and any business that presents a plan to you and says that you don't have to do anything is peddling a lie. All successful network marketers worked for their success.

Many marketers do not factor into their planning the cost of advertising their business. This cost can eat up a good chunk of your investment especially when you are just launching. The idea here is that you have to regard this as a normal business and not just a trial run venture.

3. Lack of focus - Network marketers have gained a reputation of jumping around and changing companies like they change clothing. At least this applies to those who flirt with success but never reach it.

As I mentioned before, those who survive the early years normally go on to do very well. However, there are many people who are looking for the 'next big thing' and keep jumping from opportunity to opportunity. This normally describes the behavior of those in search of the ever evasive 'ground-floor opportunity'. The rule of thumb here is that you should establish yourself in one solid company before venturing off into other companies. And if you do work more than one opportunity, make them complementary to each other.

A perfect example is working a leads company which you'll need anyway to feed your primary Network Marketing company. In fact, if you find any tools that enhances your business, why not purchase from a company that has a compensation plan attached?

4. Failure to work an easy to duplicate recruiting plan - With the advent of the Internet and all the new communication means that it affords, Network Marketing has come a long way from the home meetings and house to house presentations. Doing these presentations was very intimidating to many people and so the recruiting chain often broke along the way.

The key here is that if the recruiting machine does not have a system that anyone can comfortably do, it will come to a screeching halt. Good trainers know that a simple system must be in place or the trainer’s efforts will not be properly duplicated. If the impression is given that a recruit must be turned into an instant public speaker, giving motivational speeches at the local Hilton, they can be easily scared off.

At the same time, you must take the time to learn the system and become familiar enough with the products that you can tell a friend about its benefit. As a user yourself, this should not be difficult.

A caution here is to work the system that has been field tested, rather than trying to invent your own methods. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't be innovative, but there is no use to reinvent the wheel either, so be teachable.

5. Baby-sitting of down line members - Teaching is surely a part of the game of building a strong team. Some marketers make the mistake of doing too much for their down line members thinking that if they didn't their recruits will leave.

This often backfires, however, because the down line members become comfortable and depend too heavily on their up line and never grow strong enough to build their own teams. There is only so much you can do for someone and no more. These spoiled over-dependent down line members can become a liability instead of an asset to your team.

So avoid the temptation to micromanage your team; you'll get burnt out. Teach your team members to fish instead of fishing for them.
