How This Works - This Training Is About You
The way this works is as follows. You can tell me during the week (usually in Skype, by phone, or email, or Yahoo messenger… Skype is the best way to get me though)… or during the live online training sessions. You can choose any topic from the sections above or anything else you would like to know more about. I will speak on the things with which you need more information.
Tip:
This post below here is text as well as audios and videos from this last week or so collected for each weekly training. I will be updating it through out the day Thursday… after the live training with the audios and videos. There are reference links to get more related resources in all the sections. The content will be based on your interests, your questions during the week and also from the live sessions.
Be as specific about what you want to know as possible so it is truly useful for you. If you need me to make a video to show you how to do something let me know. The goal will be to get your list of subscribers constantly growing and coming to you for their needs & to keep moving toward making that easier for you in a practical way.
Lets make this very practical where you can actually get things done!
1. Autoresponder & Shared Aweber Campaign Tips
1A) SFS12 and GF19: I am working on a new set of SFS Ezine Aweber List messages to extend your follow up to your ezine subscribers for another month. The next one, SFS12, will be using the Automation Tools custom field GF19 post from the SFS Sample Blog. GF19 is a custom field in the shared (pre-written) Aweber list called SFS ezine (available free to Elite SFS Members only- free members login & upgrade here). Your readers, or ezine subscribers will get to see your recommended automation tools on your blog. We are introducing a New free affiliate product or two from Brad Callen of SEO and Keyword Elite. I am creating a video series to show how all the list building tools we use in SFS (Aweber, Blogs, Custom Fields, AllMyLinks spreadsheet, MMG Lead Capture Pages, etc) can be used with his extensive and proven affiliate tools to build a list while earning 75% commission on sales of these two new automation tool products: Directory Submitter and Article Submitter. This video series will be sold as a $97 product and will be available as a free monthly bonus for Elite Members of Sales Funnel Secrets. See the new MMG lead capture page to promote this with here.

3. The 5 Day Marketing Plan & Traffic Tips
3A) These is a new Post for Day 5 of the Marketing Plan for Article Marketing here. On Day 5 (Tuesdays of the Focus Group Marketing Plan) we encourage some set and forget methods to build your list and get traffic. While Article marketing can take some time if you write your own articles, once you submit a good article with a link in tha profile or bio at the bottom of your article to your lead capture of squeeze page, this can bring you leads for years, especially with RSS feed syndication to widely distribute your article across the net permanently. Great for SEO and back link building … for passive list building, the more of these you setup the faster you will be building your list… with no effort. And if you want to use the benefits of Article Marketing but do not want to write… we have resources here for solving that too. From writing to unique content creation to RSS distribution to free places to submit… you will find all you need from these various article marketing resources here.
3B) There is a New Post for Press Release Resources (Day 4 of the 5 day Marketing Plan - Mondays). Go here to my blog for some good recommendations on Press Release Resources and here for an archive of posts on the subject.

4. Blog Tips
4A) Blog Tips
Blog Tip Reminders:
Blog Tip 1:
New Sample Blog Post 1 here (GF07 main blog url) on the Sample Blog is here with a new video demo on how to make your 1st post by copying & pasting source code into your own blog and how to easily change the links to your links.
Blog Tip 2:
New Sample Blog Post 2 here (GF08 post url) on the Sample Blog is here with a new video demo on how to make your 1st post by copying & pasting source code into your own blog and how to easily change the links to your links.
Blog Tip 3:
Let me explain how this works. The Sample blog may be used by Elite Members of Sales Funnel Secrets to make your own blog posts with ready made content that “matches” what the SFS Ezine shared Aweber campaign messages talk to your subscribers about. You can change the links to your own. Remembr we are building a list for your online business and at the SAME TIME automating your mutiple income streams. This is how. Many links are for your SFS affiliate (aka referral) url, your Aweber affiliate (or referral) url, MMG, and many free or low cost advertising and other resources. These you change the links to your own . the veidoes demoas show you how. Its easy. The Sample Blog is just beting put back up online after the April “data loss”. It is mostly all up now , but the Elite member Tips at the bottom of each post ad the links to video demos are still being added. Its up to you but I suggest you leave these on your posts on your blog, these Elite Tips, to inspire your readers to upgrade to Elite Membership under you in SFS. The first 2 posts are ready, well almost. I still need to edit the last point at the very botton of the Elite Member Tips at the bottom of each post about the video demos for each post. So this ACTIONALBLE TIP … is that … a) if you make your blog from the sample blog before I finish editing the posts you can redo the parts that change when I announce here in the weekly Thursday Julie Q&A trainings that they are edited and ready. And b) listen to the audio I will add here in the next 24-48 hrs after the live training to get more detials. And c) Ask any questions on Skype and I will get to them ASAP and no later then the next Thursday JuliesQ&A Training.
4B) Sample Blog News.
I have added a new point 6 on the Sample Blog post 1 at the very bottom as part of the Elite Member Tips.

5. Sales Funnel Secrets Tips (Basic & Advanced List Building Setup Tips)
This sections is always about :
- the Sales Funnel Secrets site and program
- System setup Steps News & Tips
- AllMyLinks spreadsheet Tips & News
5A) AllMyLinks News:
Here is the new video I made a for AllMyLinks & Excel Spreadsheet Tips. Now you can find a program login or referral / affiliate url by either Program name or Date Joined.
5B) Shared SFS Ezine News:
I have just set the pre-written SFS Ezine Aweber series for all Elite Members to grab with updated custom fields (GF) now that the sample blog is up. When you grab the shared campagin, not only do you get the email messages for your own Aweber Ezine list, but you get all the default custom GFs too. This is true for a re-grab to update too.
Until you change your field values to your personal info and blog urls, they will have the defaults. These new defaults are now updated to a combination of the new sample blog (on blogger) and Wordpress categories from my blogs. So you can see how both work (both Blogger vs Wordpress as well as how a post urls works vs a category url for an archive of multiple posts… as I have discussed the last month as a new option).
These custom field (GF) values are very easily changed from the default values to your own values and urls. Your GF values, when setup as instructed in the System Setup Steps, send your leads (your subscribers) to your own blog and affiliate links (Aweber, Sales Funnel Secrets and MMG urls. And your blog had all your links and messages to promote more resources as well as your own business(s). The 1st 6 custom GF in the Shared SFS ezine campaign are easy to complete with your personal info (name, Skype, etc) as seen by your readers in the signiture and body of the email follow up messages.
Start there.
It is very easy & quick to add your data values to the custom GFs (and thus the pre-written Shared SFS Ezine follow up messages) by copying and pasting from your AllMyLinks spreadsheet. Complete your AllMyLinks custom GF values first. Some members have pre-maturely grabbed the shared (pre-written) shared SFS Ezine messages into their Aweber ezine list before having their AllMyLinks custom GF or their blog done or even started.
This is not a bad idea, I am now realizing, as you DO want to send something to your subscribers. Here I would offer a tip to simply get the (easy stuf 1st 6 custom fields done as these have your name and Skype id etc (easy stuff), for the signature files in the emails your readers will see. Then make one post on your blog and fill in your GF07 with your blog url. (There is a nice video demo or two for that. Find those from the Sample Blog Elite Member Tips at the bottom of each post you are making.)
Mean time, while you complete your other blog posts, the SFS Ezine messages your readers will get are now more meaningful and up to date with my sample blog and Wordpress archives (categories). Get your blog done ASAP. For help with that, see Blog Tips (and Part 4 here at each Julies Q&A weekly training) and also find full instructions in System Setup Steps (Step 4 and 5 at time of this writing… still editing the steps).
5c) Setup Steps News:
Adding videos to Step 3 and 4 … plans. (Julie see your todo list for June 9th)

7. Q&A (Questions & Answers)
Q1
Q: Do you have a Generic MMG Lead Capture Page for use with anything?
A: Yes New Generic MMG Lead Capture Page is called - Project: Generic (Aweber Hookup)… here is what you will start with and this is just one of many templates and photos to choose from with MMG.
.
Q2
Q: How do I do a Press Release? Can you recommend some one to do one for me?
A: I have several recommendations whether you want to do it yourself or have a professional do it for you. Go here to my blog for some good recommendations on Press Release Resources and here for an archive of posts on the subject.
.
Q3
Q: When a took the 2 hr Blog class the instructor seemed to down play Blogger. But then he didn’t recommend Wordpress either. Do have a recommendation?
A: Blogger is easier, but Wordpress is more under your control on your own domain and just takes a bit more techie knowledge. Wordpress is also free software from Wordpress.org to upload on your server hosting your domain.
.
Q4
Q: To get me started blogging, I’m thinking I should ask you to make a first draft of my Blog in Word Press. I can draft a home page and other pages for you to code. Do think this would work?
A: Yes, for a fee you can hire me to get your blog online. We will have to get Wordpress software uploaded to your host server. It is not too difficult to do it your self following the instructions (ReadMe file) they give you with the download. There is no “home page” on a blog, as each new post is on top. The word blog means web log. But you can place any side links, menus, graphics, optin forms, RSS News, video or photo rolls any many other useful things in your sidebar or header or footer “widgets” or areas of your blog that are permanently visible.
Tip: You can use the SFS sample blog for your initial blog content to use in your Aweber custom fields (GF) for the pre-written shared SFS ezine Aweber campaigns. This is for the Internet Marketing Niche audience mostly although there are resources there for the Focus Group 5 Day marketing plan for getting traffic to any niche target market. On the SFS Sample blog we are mostly providing resources and information for online marketing. Here is the Sample Blog Category Archive for both Wordpress and Blogger.
.
Q5
Q: I like adding all my affiliate urls in my AllMyLinks spreadsheet and how they turn into blue links and h I ave two questions about that:
1) does this mean it is the correct url? and
2) What did I do wrong if the link does not turn blue
A: You can turn the links off or on and no just cause its blue does nt mean its correct. Watch this video here to see how to add or remove a hyper link to the urls in your spreadsheet and how to test them to see if they are correct, when clicking them and lookign in your browser will only help sometimes to know if they are correct and the only way to know for sure.
.
Q6
Q: What would you score the following on a scale of 1 to 10 as my list building caoch? I intend to submit it starting on Friday.
Article Submitter Email Promotion
Hey {!firstname},
I have come across a brand new program created by Brad Callen
and the Bryxen Software team, called “Article Submitter”.
It allows you to quickly submit your website to hundreds of
article directories with a few mouse clicks! No kidding…
I have been using it and it’s saved me literally hours of time
in both submitting AND in finding these directories.
Here’s the link to check out the software:

A: I would liek to score it 100% if you had a responsive list to send it to. It had good spacing or formatting and great copy I assume form his proven to puttl promo tools. Pretty good signiture file (I like that your sending t them to my page to get the Skype download cuz they will also get the Skye Movies and Skype Tips. And it looks like a good product. Brad put out quality stuff. But I will only gove it a C (oe 75%) as it is average… that is what most people would do. As you know most people dont get the best results because they are not building a targeted list or any list for that matter. I always suggest you build your list … no matter what you want to promote. You would get 100% , an A+ if the link here was to build a targetd list for this that you could follow up on. The video series will show you how his works. What the SFS video setries we are doing on this free to promote affiliate product does is show you how to promote this with an MMG led capture page t byuld your ezine subscriber list and then use the custom fields (GF) and blog posts for Article Marketing (GF17 ) thand Automation tools (GF19) to send your leads to not just this but to all the tools they need to market online and build a list using your affiliate links to get what they need and want from your blog. I would have a custom MMG lead captuer page and list build that send them this affiliate url as the thank you page / redirect as well as in a follow up email form he targeted list. I would gove you the + in the A+ for using the automationj rule in Aweber to get them on your SFS ezine list which will send them to your blog one post at a time… and one SFS ezine Aweber custom field (GF) at a time strategically sending them to your various blog posts depending on their targeted interests and getting them to contact you on Skype, by email and in our Focus Group room … to network and build a relationship with you. The SFS ezine automates your follow up to cultivate a responsive list. See the new MMG lead capture page to promote Directory Submitter with here. This is used with the new sfs ezine message sfs12… and on shared Aweber campaign “SFS Ezine’s custom GF12 Automation Tools” … on your blog.
