What I am seeing has become a negative norm of advertising that needs to be attended to by all serious marketers.

It used to be typos that caught our eyes, now it is domain names going down, bad sites with broken links, people who drop programs as fast as they sign up for them and never clear up tracks of where they have been.

Less Professional Marketers or more …?

Ya gotta luv the garbage sites that promote the latest greatest piece of software you already have for free on your computer, or as part of the tools you are paying for in monthly subscriptions in good working programs you already belong to -IF you work them.

Professional marketers avoid these traps while the newbie or Internet business wannabe jumps in both eyes closed while they run up credit card debt.

From the looks of what I am seeing advertised, there are less professional marketers doing the right kind of promotions or more newbie wannabe are flooding the traffic exchanges with hopeless offers your grandmother would know enough to avoid.

When you see all the “NOT FOUND” pages, lovely sites with overly large headers with nothing above the fold to tell you what is even being offered, bad redirects that can mean frame breakers and name your poison sites that build companies at best, and never the
marketer, it is obvious we’ve got troubles Houston.

This rocket to the moon will take those poor wannabes around the block and dump them in the credit card pool of deadbeats and won’t earn them so much as a nickel to pay for the ride.

Less is MORE – The Lesson you better heed now

Dump the never win programs. STOP buying till you learn what you already have in upgraded programs. If you are not upgraded, then you need to be. FREE is a door opener but upgraded creates the satisfactory bottom line.

Sign into your back offices and learn to navigate the menus and see what you already have in marketing tools you will never use if you don’t search them out and learn to use them.

TRACK EVERY PAGE you promote. Find out what is working for you and what is not in Traffic Exchanges.

Give them fair time to prove themselves first. Surf and earn enough credits – 1000 every three days or so – to prove the sign up rates you are getting or not getting – then dump the ones that do not bring in results. Your trackers and your web stats will show you the results. It takes time – a minimum three weeks for the experienced using the right tools for measurement, to three months to prove a good or bad advertising strategy.

What you do promote and how you do it – splash pages, lead capture pages, good copy that grabs, direct marketing mail campaigns, and follow up and follow through with your leads, all become accountable actions you need to be taking EVERY DAY - not just
when the mood strikes you.

Attend the conferences you don’t have time for. Learn what experienced marketers who give these conferences have to teach and test their theories. Make that time and be an interactive participant. What you learn may save you untold hours of overwhelming work.

STOP wasting your time on useless actions that only frustrate you. YOU are the one who has the control over what you are doing.

Improve on your goals; set one now and then and stick to it until you have some measurable results!

AND most important, be a super sponsor. Share your knowledge with your subscribers. Use in-house mailers, your auto-responder for great teaching mails, and any other form of communications that will reach them with the help they need – even if they do not ask
you for it. You KNOW they need your help so give it generously.
