The most powerful Marketing book ever written? Quite possibly!

I’ve just gotten an e-book copy of Mark Joyner’s classic book, “Mind Control Marketing”. I’ve wanted to buy this book for years, but I’ve never been able to get my hands on it.  Mark pulled it from print not long after it was released and until now… the only way to get access to this powerful marketing information was to buy a used copy on Amazon or eBay for several hundred dollars.

Seriously, the cheapest I saw it offered for was $249 on Amazon. As much as I wanted the book, and as much as I had been primed to want it, I just couldn’t justify paying that much for it.

Mark claims he took the book out of print because “money isn’t everything” and he didn’t want the information to fall into the “wrong hands”… So why is he “giving it away” for such a low price now? For me, purchasing Mind Control Marketing was an absolute “no brainer”. I expected to pay a lot more for it that I did.

So, is this the most powerful marketing book ever written or nothing more than a compelling title, excellent sales copy and a well orchestrated, long-term marketing plan?

Actually, I didn’t even read the sales copy… I just wanted this book so bad I scrolled right to the bottom of the page and paid… I was expecting to pay at least $97. In my opinion, he’s selling it way too cheap. I’ve paid more than $27 for 20 page ebooks. Mind Control Marketing is over 160 pages of powerful information. You even get the “secret chapter” - reputed to be more powerful than the rest of the e-book.

This chapter wasn’t even included in the print book. Mark took it out just before the book went to print because he thought it was too powerful. (I’ve read it, I know why he may have felt this way.)

The information in the book DOES live up to the hype… It’s basically step-by-step instructions on how to manipulate people and it COULD be used for ill will. Maybe it’s dangerous letting everyone know?

When it comes to releasing controversial information like this, I have always thought that it’s better out than in. The people who worry about it getting out are those who fear they will lose their own power if it does.

Once the information is in the public domain, the power of its dark side diminishes, but ethical use of the information remains unaffected. So, maybe the $27 price does show that Mark doesn’t think money is everything.  He has decided that this is something we should all know and made it affordable to the masses.

I think reading it will help you grow as a person, as well as making you a better marketer.

Amazing Article Marketing

Have you been using article marketing as part of your Internet marketing business? Have your efforts evolved along with the Web? Have you notices how more complex it has become to get really good results? Article marketing can be very effective when done right. The question is how are you doing it? I want to tell you about something that seems to be working very well.

As you know many people tout article marketing as one of the best and cheapest ways to get your name out there, get known and get links to your websites. This is true, however, over the last couple of years the results have diminished for the standard methods. Once upon a time, just 2 or 3 years ago internet time, you could post articles that got syndicated to many article directories and you would just get traffic to your website. But now there are so many articles out there that your article is just another ad page for directory owners in the vast sea of pages on the Internet.

And, as you also know, the Internet is constantly changing and so must you if you want the best results for your marketing efforts. What once worked very well in not working so well now. With the increased popularity in blogs and in social networking it is evident where the attention is going. If you want to get under the noses of potential customers and clients, you need to be where they are. Sure, many people still find what they are looking for through search engines, but they are also spending a lot of time in blogs and social networking sites.

Now you should be looking to get your presence in all of these areas in order to have the best chance at getting in front of the specific people you want to see what you have for them. You can, if you haven’t already, set up your own blog with proper SEO practices and get involved in many of the social networking sites in order to get your message out there. And if you are trying to do all this you know how much work it is. And if you are not yet doing these things, you have realized how ineffective old-style article marketing has become.

There is a new system that has popped up that combines all the newest aspects of the web that the masses are flocking to with article marketing, and has shown phenomenal results particularly for being so new. This new article marketing system is in its infancy and just as the overall web, is growing and developing all the time. The great thing about this new system is that on top of integrating the nets currently most powerful aspects, it is designed to continuously change with the overall Internet environment, helping to keep your efforts producing the results you want.

Many new articles are showing up on the first page of search results and many at number one, just days after posting. When was the last time you had your article show up on the first page of a search? The way they do it is to offer much more than a traditional article directory.

Did you know that the reason article directories really want your content is so they can place ads on those pages from which they generate income. Now that in itself is not so sinister as we all realize that the directory operator needs to generate income somehow when they don’t charge us anything to post an article. But on the other hand we really don’t get much from the post, just a page online with little to no linking or socializing power. Plus, when there are ads all over the page your article is on many of the readers take off through an ad link without clicking on your link at the bottom of the article. So you gave the reader a little information and they went elsewhere to get more, not to your site.

In this new system, they allow you to have full control over the adspace on your articles page. You can put your own ads on it, your chosen affiliate products ads, you can sell the adspace or you can set it up with no ads, so your site link is all that is there. So, you get control of the revenue generated the page and the outgoing links.

Another aspect of this new system is that the article directory is a blog, not a static site. You know that blogs are getting a huge amount of reader attention plus they get much favorable attention from the search engines. On the net today, a blog page has become more powerful than a standard web page. So without even having your own blog you can now realize the power of a blog where readers can interact easily with comments, and you can comment back. Interaction with your readers has proven to be extremely valuable because as they get to know you they are far more likely to take you up on your offers.

And to add the icing on top, this new system does social networking for your articles. They help to gather viewers through various social networking sites to come to read your articles. If you can just get your arms around how powerful this is you will soon realize how even the traffic they bring in for another authors article also benefits yours in the same topic.

Of course if you add your own social networking efforts your articles will do even better, and in this system they show you how to do this as well, because it benefits the whole system. This is the closest thing I have found that is truly a win-win-win for everyone involved in the area of article marketing. If you understand how getting the most from your time and your money is of utmost importance in business and have been wondering how to get fantastic results in today’s online environment, this new generation advanced article marketing system may just be the answer for you.

Why A Niche Is Important

Above all else in the field of online marketing, a niche is more important than anything else.  Despite what you might think, this isn’t because of the obvious thought that may cross your mind as being that this is where the money comes from.  No, before that, a niche is what provides you with your focus in life for without focus you will be lost.

Many people come to online marketing from a background of employment.  Some are still working and trying to earn some part time money online with a view to leaving their job and moving into full time online marketing.  Other people have been put in the difficult position as a result of losing their jobs and are seeking an alternative source of income.  Whatever your situation, this article is one that you must read and take note of.

In an employment situation, an employee has a task or a number of tasks to complete each day.  Generally these are limited by the scope of their Position Description and as an employee you do not move outside this scope.   That’s a good thing.  It provides focus in your work and you know exactly what your duties and responsibilities are.

The internet on the other hand can be like being a kid in a candy store.  There is so much to see, there is so much to do and there are nothing but distractions in every direction you turn.  You can easily start out the day with the best of intentions to research a particular project, but as you start your searches, one site leads to another which leads to another, which leads to another and before you know it you are reading about the mating habits of polar bears.  Absolutely nothing to do with your original intentions.

Likewise, another trap are your email subscriptions.  Now there’s nothing wrong with subscribing to newsletters, they can be very informative and useful to your business.  But you need to make an immediate distinction on scanning the email as to whether or not you really need to follow those links.  Are those links really going to provide you with information relevant to your niche.

By having a niche, you can therefore keep focus.  Make up a big sign and put it above your desk.  “Does the site I am visiting have relevance to (fill in your niche here)?”  Put other similar signs up around the place to constantly keep yourself on track.  You don’t have a boss on the internet, only yourself so if you don’t manage your own time and surfing habits you will find yourself constantly chasing not only your own tail, but also rainbow dreams.
