A Personal Message from Steve & Kerry

We’ve had an exciting week.  Last week we spent time with our Mastermind group that Yanik Silver organizes.  We came home with some great ideas to implement and you’ll be seeing them over the next few weeks.  We also made some great connections in other niche markets.  If you don’t have a coach or mastermind group, you need to find one.

A more personal & exciting event happened once we got home from DC.  Our oldest daughter, Ashley, got engaged to be married…whoop!  She & Jesse are already planning the wedding for January, so Kerry will be balancing the roles of wedding coordinator, mom-preneur and wife for the next few months.  We are excited to see God working in their lives and look forward to having a new member in our family.

Steve & Kerry Recommend: SOC Box

What in the world is a SOC Box?

If you are looking for more customers, more referrals, more sales, more money…a SOC Box might be your answer.

Over the past 6 months, you’ve heard me talk about Send Out Cards (SOC) and how we use it to get more sales after our webinars.  We also use Send Out Cards to get more Joint Venture partners, more referrals and more long-term clients.  And we get more residual income from SOC…even when we aren’t working!

But, you haven’t started using Send Out Cards because you didn’t have $395!  Right???

Now you can get started with Send Out Cards for only $49.  That’s right…$49!

With that $49 you get a SOC Box mailed to your doorstep, you get access to the SOC Get Started website and you can send 10 cards (with the stamps) from that site.  You can even upload your photos to make your own Picture Cards.

But that’s not all…

Send Out Cards now has an affiliate program.  If you become a SOC affiliate, you can sell the SOC boxes for $49 and make a profit of $24 on each box you sell.  When you sell 10 boxes in 30 days, you get a $100 bonus.  That’s $340 in 30 days.  You’d have enough money to become a SOC entrepreneur and start getting passive (residual) income.

This is the EASIEST, QUICKEST & CHEAPEST way I know to start a home based business….all for less than $75!

This is too cool……

If you want to get your own SOC box, click the button below and I’ll mail you one of mine!
Give Me a SOC Box – Quick Home Based Business

In the meantime, start making a list of who needs to receive a card from you!

FWIW…the SOC Box was announced this past weekend and I wanted you to be the first to know how to use it.

To become an affiliate, you will need to upgrade from a SOC Box user to an affiliate for $25.  That’s dirt cheap!

Featured Article: Find Products to Sell Online
by Stephen Beck

Finding products in your niche can be difficult at times, but I’d like to give you a few tips to help you make the most profit. Even if your niche is one where customers don’t usually spend lots of money, it is possible to sell with a rewarding profit.

When looking for products to sell, keep in mind you want ones that are in high demand and have a relatively high markup. Meaning, you will get more bang for your time spent if you choose a course that you make $50 from as opposed to a book that you make $5 from. So here is my advice on on how to make sales online with a product in the homeschool market.

Step 1: Find a product in the homeschool market that you can re-sell. Remember, it should be something with a higher markup. If you can’t sell it directly, look for affiliate programs which provide you a commission on sales.

Step 2: Write a review on the product. By writing a review, you become known as the residential home-schooling expert. People will seek out your advice, so create a one-page website for your review.

Step 3: Research your keywords, then sprinkle them around your site. Optimize your title tags, HTML tags, text, and more with keywords. Use an email capture program to collect contact information, and add a shopping cart to make it easy for the customer to pay.

Step 4: Write some articles that are optimized for your secondary keywords and submit those to article directories on the internet. This will lead people back to your website and provide those all important backward links that the search engines like so much!

Step 5: Find forums which discuss that product. Become the forum expert with a tactful link to your site in the signature

All these steps take time, the best investment you can make in your internet business. You can earn amazing profits with your online business by following these simple steps.

Remember to keep your eyes on the prize. Look for products with higher markups, which are more profitable to you. Enjoy the experience of selling great products, even in the most-difficult niche, and watch your bottom line go up, up, up!

Steve & Kerry Recommend: 7 Secrets to Attracting All the Clients You Want

2009 is definitely a year of winners and losers. On the one hand I am both experiencing and witnessing INCREDIBLE TRANSFORMATIONS in my own business and the businesses of my friends and clients.

Yet at the same time, I’m hearing tales of woe – clients cancelling, lost business, budgets drying up -and many people STRUGGLING to get the consistent paying clients and business they need and want. Many people are complaining that what USED to work is no longer working

So what’s the difference between those who SOAR and those who STRUGGLE?

My friend Bernadette Doyle is ready to tell you, because she’s been studying the differences between those who SOAR and those who STRUGGLE and is going to reveal her findings in this special TWO-PART TELESEMINAR called ‘7 Secrets to Attracting All the Clients You Want’ that’s coming up on Tuesday June 30 and Thursday July 2 (Yep, she’s got so much info to share on this topic I can’t fit it in on one call!)

Kerry & I traveled to Ireland last May to speak at Bernadette’s event.  It was one of the best events and most content I’ve heard shared in a weekend.  Bernadette always over-delivers.  Well, I’ve made special arrangements for you to attend this teleseminar series as my guest!

Featured Article: Webinars: The Greatest Untapped Secret On The Internet

Do you want to know my number one secret to my success on the internet? It is an incredible tool called a webinar. Webinars are basically an online seminar. I use webinars to get more sales, get them day in and day out, and get them automatically. By using webinars effectively, you can dominate your niche and reap the rewards. That is how people sell tremendous amounts of products and services on the internet.

Both offline and online business are using webinars. Video is here to stay. A webinar is really just controlled television. It gives people information in the way they are used to finding it, which is on the television.

The powerful thing about webinars is that you can sell one to many, instead of selling one to one. That is a key part of webinars. This also frees up your time to do more of what you enjoy.

Imagine getting people on a webinar and only spending your marketing – direct marketing, direct mail, or phone calls, or appointment setters – on the people who have actually raised their hand and hung in with you for a sixty minute webinar. That would be a pretty big pre-qualification.

Webinars allow you to get in front of a lot of people, having a 1-100, 1-500 or even 1-1000 ratio. The location does not matter. You can reach people all over the world! In essence, you can get people to raise their hand about your topic, and then spend your marketing effort and dollars on them.

One of the greatest things about webinars is that you can get the attention of your potential customers and keep it as long as necessary to make the sale. This is because webinars are very interactive. With webinars, you can create an event and give them a reason to buy now, as opposed to tomorrow, or next week, or next month, or even next year.

Without a doubt, webinars are an incredible tool and worthy of much more attention than they get. Webinars have really transformed my business and I truly believe that they have the potential to transform yours.
