I’m tired…

In fact, I was trying to figure out how I could use the snowstorm in the northeast, to postpone this post.

But even my creativity has limits.

You see, I was up later (last night) than I would have liked…

We had the family over for the Super Bowl last night. (What an amazing game -btw)

Which reminds me of an unfortunate story about a cousin of mine… Continue reading A Foolproof Easy Method To A… Game Changing… Market Shifting… BREAKTHROUGH!!!

I must confess…

I’ve changed my mind about what I was going to write about today — four times already… why?

The answer is simple. You see, yesterday I gave you the formula for creative massive profits (VC)x2(P)=($$$). Then I asked you: “what you need to know next?”

And the feedback you gave me was excellent…better than ever…in fact they’re all… Continue reading Ask These 4 Questions, Stand Back And Watch Your Business – And Profits – Erupt!

And the streak continues…

Here’s a quick recap of what went down yesterday at “action-central”….aka the Strategic Profits blog.

Yesterday’s post “How 3 Blog Posts Cause Explosive Traffic, Engagement and Profits” is causing quite a flurry of feedback already. As well it should…I showed you what I was up to (behind the scenes) and how you can steal the tactics to grow your business fast.

(By the way, if you haven’t already read the post yet – CLICK HERE – to read it first)

Now, are you beginning to wonder… how I decide what I’m going to write about each day?

A client asked me yesterday if I had the series written in advance. I hate that idea. To me, it seems like cheating. I feel obligated to stay focused on you and your questions. I’m doing my best to make each post both timeless and timely. I won’t always succeed but I’ll sure try.

In any case, I don’t decide what I’m going to write until I’ve read all the comments from the previous day –- sit down at my “beach office” — and my pencil hits the yellow legal pad.

It keeps me focused on you. It keeps me on the edge.

Today’s lesson is the most important one in the series so far.

In case you haven’t been following along, I suggest you get yourself up to speed first. Because it’ll make what you’re going to read here much more powerful and useful to you.

We started on last Friday with a blog post made up entirely of questions. It’s titled, “A Daring Blog Post.” (Click on it and read this one first).

Next, on Monday we continued the conversation with a post that answered the riddle of whose successful marketing starts with a single sentence. It’s titled, “Entrepreneurial Success in a Sentence.” (Click on this and read it second).

Then yesterday, I showed you the single biggest mistake both entrepreneurs and marketers are making online today and what you need to do to solve it. It’s titled, “Greater Empathy = Greater Rapport = Greater Profits.” (Click on this and read this third).

Good. Now you’re up to speed…and primed to get the most out of this post.

Today I am going to talk to you about bonding, believability, credibility. How to get it, and translate it into blockbuster sales in one fell swoop.

But before I get cranked up on today’s post, I want to discuss a few items of interest. First, today’s post picks up where we left of yesterday.

So if you haven’t read Entrepreneurial Success In A Sentence yet – you should click on over to it and read it first.

Second, did you get a chance to read over all the comments fellow readers contributed and witness the collective genius of our community?

What’s that? You say you did catch all that? You say you read all the comments and you noticed the very same fact?

GOOD! GOOD! GOOD!

Now listen: did you also notice Christopher Vogelmann’s comment?

No need to flip back, I’ll tell you what he said: “Greater Rapport = Greater Profits”

More about that later.

The conversation taking place on my previous post has been contagious.

So much so, it’s sparked a renewed enthusiasm on my part to tackle bigger challenges and issues currently taking place in our community, while also delivering profitable distinctions you can use to immediate grow your business.

Today, we’re going to roll-up our sleeves and begin a series that’ll solve the riddle of successful marketing. I said a series (as opposed to a single post) because we’re going to dive deep into what really makes insanely profitable marketing work – and that’s going to require some reflection on your part.

So, here’s the deal… I am going to post a new post (the next installment) each morning at exactly 10 A.M. on the dot everday this week.

Is this a good thing?

Recently, Mastercard and Visa, as well as other merchant processors have conveyed some new regulations with regard to program execution such as one-time offers, forced continuities, and shipping and handling only, to name a few.

These new rules/regulations are due to longtime complaints from customers that are being billed for products they didn’t want or felt they were being misled into buying. All the processors have basically decided to shun any company that employs tactics like deceptive forced continuity type programs.

So the big question remains…is this a good thing or not?

Well, I guess the answer depends on you, your business philosophy, and the quality of products or services you provide for your customers.

I believe that there are many pros and cons to this new set of guidelines.

I’m very excited about these guidelines and plan to use them to our company’s advantage in order to lead our company to higher levels. We will simply do what we always preach and that’s to do the right thing.

Now, if you are one of those companies that is focused on taking every last dollar from your customers or trying to misguide or force people into a continuity program unwillingly in order to squeeze a month or two of program fees out of them… than you’re probably concerned about the new regulations. As you should be!

If you get caught violating these regulations, not only will you lose your merchant processor and merchant account, but most likely you won’t be able to get another account from other processors in the future.

Here at Strategic Profits, from time to time, we have tried optional continuity type programs. It is a possibility that we may offer some type of optional continuity program in the future, however, these new guidelines are making us step up our game, convey all of our offers with even greater clarity, and become superior in the way we handle our prospects and customers.

These new guidelines will force us to revisit the marketing basics that we know have worked for decades and decades (because consumer buying habits never change).

Yesterday we discussed the difference between owners and victims. Today I want to tell you more about the “Owner’s Mindset.”

Owners give everything they’ve got to whatever they’re doing. They pour every ounce of energy into the current moment.

They realize that anything they could do while multitasking isn’t a high-leverage activity they should be doing in the first place. Instead it should be delegated or outsourced.

You see, when you give all of yourself to something you own it. In a sense, you wrap your responsibility around it completely.
