The FAILURE of Time Management [Webinar Recording]
Are you overwhelmed with everything you need to do? Struggling with lack of focus? Always feel like you’re running out of time?
Yeeaaahhh… I thought so. 
And last night, I did a webinar about that very subject. In this webinar, I discuss…
What Time Management Usually Looks Like (And It Isn’t Pretty)
Something is wrong. Grossly wrong.
I admit, my last reader survey post was a wee-bit rhetorical. After all, I knew how large a problem time management was. I just kind of wanted to get some of you to confirm it for me. BTW, if you haven’t chimed in on Thursday’s survey post, you can do it here.
But, you know what this only goes to show?
Something is horribly wrong.
Time Management Issues? [READER SURVEY]
If you’re trying to start or run an internet-based business, chances are you’ve run up into the challenges of managing your time.
Hell, we ALL run up into these challenges. Time seems to be scarce, does it not?
I’m going to be talking about this issue for the next few days, but today…. I WANT YOUR INPUT. 
Why Big Marketers Are Dying Off, And Little Guys Can Win
An idea hit me. Admittedly, its gone through my mind before. It is super-basic, yet I see so many people online just forgetting.
See, in this whole blogger market, I’m not exactly the biggest fish in the pond. My list size is respectable, but not nearly as big as some of the folks like Darren or Brian (from CopyBlogger). My traffic is nothing to complain about, but people like Pat Flynn are far surpassing me.
But, generally, I’ve got a pretty tight-knit bunch of readers. Every time that little voice in my head wonders if I’m doing enough, I get people who tell me they open my emails religiously.
How To Promote Products Without Pitching Anything
In the internet marketing space, the general audience is sensitive to being pitched these days. And, those of you in other markets tend to translate your own hesitancy for pitching into the minds of your audiences.
Either way, it is a mistake. The way I see it, this is a matter of language, and one of value.
A Technique To Sell Without Selling
If you’re a blogger who is uncomfortable selling from your blog, here’s a technique that is super-simple and can make you more money.
This might work. I’m just sayin’.
First, look at average conversion rates. The average conversion rate on a sales letter is 1%-2%. Certainly nothing spectacular. Yet, on a typical squeeze page, the conversion rate might be more like 40% (or higher). I’ve had them convert at close to 60% before.
Why Nobody Cares About Your Offer
You make an offer. You pack a lot into it. And… it flops. It just doesn’t seem to connect and nobody gives a crap.
What happened?
Well, the reasons could be many. Wrong target market, wrong positioning, not really addressing the real needs and wants of your audience.
But, today, I want to bring to your attention a simple concept called Maslow’s hierachy of needs. Here it is, in all of its triangular glory…
Do You Have A Super-High Bounce Rate On Your Site?
The bounce rate can often be a matter of concern for a lot of site owners. Is it too high? What can you do about it?
Actually, it might not be as high as you think. Perhaps you can stop thinking you’ve done something horribly wrong.
Let me explain…
How To Clone A Blog (And Why)
You know the old saying… (and pardon my French for a minute)…
“Shit happens”.
And it is particularly annoying when said shit happens to YOUR blog. Whether it be an upgrade, a plug-in, or you get hacked… at some point while running your blog, you’re very likely going to come face-to-face with the truth in the saying, “shit happens”.
Success, Unplugged
I was over on the Warrior Forum the other day. Really popular site for internet marketing… and one that I hardly ever visit. But, I went over there and poked around for an hour or so (it was actually on my to-do list that day. ).
I was AMAZED by the amount of “shiny objects” over there. TONS of people both offering and seeking whatever will make them money. Just one big “bizop” support group, really.
