Increase Sales By Flying Under Your Prospects' "Radar Defenses"

How do you persuade someone to do what you want them to do?

A whole world of marketing exists around us trying to do
that every minute of the day. Do you even notice it anymore
or, like your prospects, have you subconsciously set up a
system of "radar defenses" against the daily bombardment of
marketing messages?

Take a minute and count up the advertising methods which
fight for your attention (and money) every day. Just the
basic list includes:

· Yellow page ads

· Newspaper and magazine ads

· Postcards, catalogs, and direct mail circulars in your
"snail mail" box

· Radio pitches interrupting the flow of your favorite songs

· TV ads - about 20 minutes worth per hour now

· Hundreds of storefronts, "mega" malls, and strip malls

· Highway billboards by the thousands

· Circulars hung on your doorknob

· Illegal signs on stop signs and telephone poles

· Legitimate email messages

· Spam email or UCE (unsolicited commercial email)

Just these 11 sources can overwhelm your brain with
marketing messages. Like trapped rats, people develop
defenses against this never-ending onslaught. They throw up
a wall or a "radar defense" that goes into action the minute
they smell a "pitch" or a sales job. Don't blame them. We
all do it!

So how can you get around this psychological wall against
the constant sales and marketing messages? Well, the answer
does NOT lie in hitting people with more frequent and
obnoxious advertising or sly, sneaky tactics. You might get
them to trust you for a minute, but it will backfire in the
long run.

You must do two things instead:

1. First, you must establish credibility for yourself and
your business as an expert.

2. Second, you must reduce their fears about doing business
with you.

Doing these two things will get you past their defenses and
allow you the opportunity to persuade them to buy your
product.

So how do you accomplish these two "simple" things? What
will win someone's attention, raise your credibility, and
lower their fear factor all at the same time? The one-word
answer really applies to most everyone.

Trust!

If a seller can get behind your defenses with information
which makes you trust them, then that credibility will carry
over into a sale much of the time.

How can you get this credibility?

Well, take this next fact as online marketing "gospel," for
many people have proven its effectiveness.

Fact: Publishing and promoting with free articles gives you
one of the most powerful opportunities available to tip the
buyer's credibility scale in your favor.

How can we prove this works? Quite easily actually. Take a
break from reading this and go check out a newspaper or
magazine for a minute.

Which do you trust more, the ads or the articles? Most
people will choose the articles hands down. Why? Because
the articles don't try to "sell" you anything. Instead, they
hand out useful information for educational or other
practical purposes.

Most of us grew up in a culture which says we can believe
and "trust" what appears in the standard "news" or
"information" format. In other words, if it appears in
print, then we can believe and trust the author.

So go ahead! Use this lifetime of conditioning to your
advantage in selling your products and services!

Very few things will create an atmosphere of trust and
confidence in people as reading one of your articles on a
subject that greatly interests them. It shows you know your
business. It also demonstrates you will do more than just
try to sell them something.

Publishing articles literally lets you fly under their
advertising "radar defenses."

So remember these points when deciding whether or not to use
articles to promote your business:

1. Few things create as much trust and confidence in the
minds of potential customers as reading an article you wrote
on a subject which specifically and intensely interests
them.

2. Articles establish credibility quickly because, right or
wrong, we've all been trained to trust the "news."

3. An article, or series of articles, will differentiate you
from the competition, who bombard people with nothing but
sales messages.

4. Providing content-rich, non-sales-oriented articles will
also help build and solidify your relationship with existing
customers so they give you repeat business.

3. eBook Review - Turn Words into Traffic

Do you need more traffic to your website?

Who doesn't!

In a recent survey over 91.3% of subscribers said they
wanted to know how to get MORE traffic to their websites
and their affiliate links.

They also said they wanted to know how to get that traffic
FAST *and* they didn't want to (or couldn't) pay for it.

If you're one of the people who wants more traffic to your
website and affiliate links, here's the formula you've been
looking for...

Stay with me for just a minute, because I'll explain to you
a simple system for getting targeted traffic to your
website any time you want it.

In fact, since you're a subscriber of mine, chances are
you've seen this system used several times. You've probably
bought one or more ebooks, software, or at the very least
clicked an affiliate link either directly or indirectly
because of the system.

So what is it?

First let me tell you what it's NOT:

~ It's NOT pay-per-click search engines

~ It's NOT "Sp*am"

~ It's NOT FFA links or "Safe" Lists

~ It's NOT complicated search engine tactics

~ And no, it's NOT classified ads or banners either

In fact, it's not any crazy traffic "scheme".

Joe Vitale, the famous author of Hypnotic Writing and
co-author on the 7-Day eBook had this to say about it:

"Outstanding! This is THE method I've been using for
nearly ten years now to make myself rich and famous
online. This e-book reveals the entire method---from
soup to nuts---and it will work for anyone who uses it.
Some of the resources in this ebook were a surprise,
even to me. Get this one right now!"

It's simple.

You use free articles distributed all over the Internet that
draw visitors to your website like bees to honey.

With free articles, the targeted traffic you generate is as
good or better than any traffic you could pay for ... except
you don't have to pay for it!

In fact, this system is so effective it gives you an almost
unfair advantage over your competitors who are out there
spending big bucks to get traffic. You see, it's just like
the Pied Piper making them come visit your websites or click
your affiliate links... almost against their will. :-)

The great thing about it is it doesn't matter if you have a
website or not. Even if the only way you can make money
online right now is to promote other people's products as an
affiliate, this system will work for you immediately!

If you want more traffic because of the increased sales,
customers and money you know it will bring you, but you
don't want to (or can't) spend money to get the traffic,
then I urge you to get more free information right now.

4. Best Deal of the Year - SBI - Buy-1-Get-1 FREE

I am totally amazed by Ken Evoy's SBI - Site Build It!

Initially I thought he placed way too much emphasis on
building pages to attain high search engine rankings. I
honestly didn't believe it was possible to 'work' pages
to get a top-ten ranking anymore.

Well, I was wrong. It seems everytime I do a search on
Google nowadays, one of the first sites returned is an SBI
site.

Now that Ken's offering his Buy 1 Get 1 FREE deal, (and
he's adamant that this is the last time he's doing this..
I highly recommend that you take advantage of his total
