A tale of marketing…

By tdj | October 10, 2008

hi today all am going to post is a short story I thing most in the internet marketing business need to take note of everyday.

I first read it on a blog from a very good marketer named randy smith and i know he will be happy to think you take something from it.but don’t forget to click over to his blog for more from him he really is worth your time and i have learnt a lot from his over a short time…

Joe And His Feathers
—————————
An internet marketer named Joe was having final talks
with his mentor after completing his basic training.
“Right” said Joe “I now know enough to get out
there and make some money, so I’m OK on my own”

The mentor wished him luck and said he’d be checking
up on Joe to make sure he was getting on OK and
getting results.
A week later he called Joe…
Here’s their conversation:
Mentor -
“How’s it going Joe?… Have you got your site up
yet?”
Joe’s reply was that of so many:
“Well I was going to get it sorted this week - but I
got an email about this great new application that
will really help with building my site….So I’ve
bought it and have been studying how to incorporate
it!”
Mentor -
“Well how much have you got done to your own site in
order to start making some cash Joe? - Have you
even registered a domain name yet?… You know it’s
easy to search Google for Domain names! - I know a
lot of people are quite happy with NameCheap
lately.”
Joe -
“Err.. Oh… um, I’ve not really found the time to
grab a domain yet….with all the studying I’ve not
actually got started - but this application is going
to be a great help… It’s A ‘Feather In My Cap’
For Sure!”
Another week past, and the Mentor called again,
Mentor -
“Hi Joe, just checking in on how you’re sites are
doing this week? - Did you at least grab your own name
domain and get some hosting sorted?”
Joe -
“Ah well, you see, After learning about that latest
application - I realised it didn’t quite do what I
needed it too…But - it’s not a problem ‘cos when I
was waiting for a reply from the support desk, I
found another that does work the way I wanted it to
:)”
Mentor -
“So you’ve got that set up on your site then have
you Joe?”
Joe -
“Well no… not yet I did buy a few domains though…
And I went to D9 Hosting and signed up for a great
value account, but don’t actually have anything put
up yet - I will be doing though… This app’s got a
slightly steeper learning curve,.. but hey - it’s
worth it as it’ll be really good!… I tell ya man -
it’s another ‘Feather In My Cap’ is this one!”

Week 3
Mentor -
“Hi Joe, well - what news… are you getting many
visitors yet from the techniques we discussed to
driving traffic? — And what about that link I sent
you for AutoPilot Cash Streams
- What an easy and guaranteed way to build your list!”
Joe -
“Or Hi … erm No, I, err don’t really have any
gifts to offer, and All that landing page and
autoresponder stuff is a bit much at the mo…… You
see, I found another new bit of software that’ll
do loads more than the stuff we discussed - and
that’ll help me catch up and get ahead again… it’s
a Real ‘Feather In My Cap’ that will impress even you
boss!”
Mentor -
“Well, We’ll see won’t we…But Frankly - you could
grab some PLR to use as a gift, and even a backend
offer from sites like MoreMonthly.com - then set
up a quick squeeze page, Download page and a couple
of Autoresponder messages… and within a couple of
weeks you’d have a business Joe!…Anyway, Talk next
week”
Week 4
Mentor -
“Joe - it’s me. Hows sales?.. You must be getting
some by now? AutoPilot Cash Streams hasn’t even
launched yet.. and I already have some downloads and
a couple of optin’s… did you get signed up and
add a gift yet?”
Joe -
“No , not yet - But I do have a site up. It’s not
the one we planned, but it was easier, I got it FREE
from another Guru as a bonus for buying some DVD’s…
now I don’t have time to watch them yet… but
this site is really push button simple - so it won’t
be long before I’m rolling in it…. I’m so glad I
bought that package and got these bonuses - there’s
loads in here I can put to use one day… a True
‘Feather In My Cap’ for grabbing this before the
deadline!”
Week 5
Mentor-
“Yo Joe, whaddya know?”
Joe -
“Oh high mate… jeesh, what a week it’s been…
turns out push button really meant push your luck.. the
sites going no where fast - it seems everyone got one
the same, so I found a load of PLR that I was
gonna rewrite to make mine different. After all it’s
pointless having a boring site isn’t it?.. one
that’s just got the same stuff as everybody
else…”
Mentor -
“But Joe - you had a plan already.. you didn’t need
anything extra!… I mentioned before about looking
at MoreMonthly.com to grab some products to use…
I know you want your own product - but you could
use the PLR to get started and tell the list you build
of your progress as you move on… They’ll be
interested in following how you develop…
Honestly - people love to see others progress!”
Joe -
“Well yeah…BUT - while I was searching for other
PLR stuff - I found this great forum where there are
thousands of people who haven’t made money from
PLR… so I thought I’d be different and drop that
idea… It’s put me a bit behind - BUT… I did get
to see what everyone’s raving about now.. and I was
first in to a new site that will give me an exclusive
product ready made - complete with ALL the tools I
need to promote it and everything… I kid you not …
The full shebang - I’m well happy with this one,
when added to the other stuff I found in that forum
along with the stuff I’ve been collecting… On
their own they might not have been up to much… BUT -
Combined - They’re A ‘Feather In My Cap’ that
will really make me some cash!”

Week 6
Mentor -
“Hi Joe, I’m hoping you’ve got around to getting
Focused on building your business by now… It seems
you are following the steps that lead a lot to
spending more monthly and never making more
monthly… When really they should be focused on
Saving MoreMonthly And Making MoreMonthly!”
Joe -
“Yeah - you’re right…but man - I have so much info
overload… everything seems so hard, there’s so
much to take in, and the more I study and read from
all these people who want to show me new stuff all
the time… the more confused I’m getting! — BUT
HEY, I’ve snagged myself a ticket to an exclusive
offline meeting about Focusing on my dreams… I was
so lucky to have stumbled on this - you know …
this one will be a right ‘Feather In My Cap!’”
Mentor -
“Joe… STOP!… There’s plenty of time to perfect
things as you progress. But you really have to FOCUS
and TAKE ACTION if you ever want to achieve anything.
- So next week just spend a couple of days putting
your Plan into Action. Make a decision on which way
you want to go, and start taking steps to get things
moving in that direction… and ignore anything that
isn’t going to help with that Plan!”
Joe -
“No Really - this is going to be the big one for
me… I keep telling ya man - ‘Feather In My Cap!’”

Week 7
Joe -
“High, it’s Joe.”
Mentor -
“Oh high Joe, so what’s new did you finally stay
focused and take some action?”
Joe -
“Well sort of… But I spent up on getting to this
meeting, (read Pitch Fest), … I should have know when
there was only one speaker and the tickets were so
cheap… but the train fare and hotel costs have left
me a little short :(, - I did meet a couple of great people
though - so that’s a ‘Feather In My Cap!’”
Mentor -
“So you still haven’t got anything in place to build
your lists then Joe?”
Joe -
“No, I should have just Taken some Action from the
outset, but hey - there’s still time to get in on the
AutoPilot Cash Streams.. I hear there are already over
4000 contributors now… and it’s still around a week
til launch.
So I’ve decided that as soon as I get home,
I’m going to think about checking the blog
post about it (half way down here)..
Then maybe get stuck in and build a business….
Hey - I should have listened in the first place…
But I’m pretty sure now that once I’ve sorted this -
It’ll be a ‘Feather In My Cap’”
Mentor -
“Well it’s good to hear you are finally going to
‘think’ about getting Focused And Taking Action…
After all that’s the only way anything is ever
going to happen!”
Joe -
“Yep - of course you’re right… there’s just one
thing holding me back now…”
Mentor -
“Oh what now Joe, for crying out loud!”
(well it’s easy to see how some people would get
frustrated at trying to help people who won’t help
themselves - especially when others are doing their
best to work through things that are foreign to them
- but not always coming up with excuses… It seems
the Mentor has been saying all along - Focus, Plan &
Take Action… and try to make sure any distractions
are ones that will be of use now - not sometime in
the future when there are a month of sundays or 8 days
in a week!…lol)
Joe -
“Well it seems I can’t actually afford the travel
fare home… and if I can’t get home I can’t get
started… SO I wondered if you could see your way to
lending me some cash so I can get home?”
(Oh dear - and to think how much Joe has wasted, when
for just a few dollars he could have been up and
running weeks - if not months ago… Can you imagine
what his mentor might say to this request…)
Mentor -
“Tell You What Joe… You’ve kept telling me about
the ‘Feathers In Your Cap’ with all the tangents
you’ve taken instead of following proven advice
for all these weeks - So I have an idea for you
before I hang up”
Joe -
“Sure.. I’m always up for listening to new ideas”
Mentor -
“Great…. Well think about all those Feathers you’ve
collected… now grab the lot of them… stick them
somewhere the sun don’t shine and FLY HOME!“
LOL
I’m sure that was just something the mentor would
have thought not said… but the moral would be - if
someone who has done exactly what they’re trying to

Prepare yourself –Develop the right mindset

By tdj | October 3, 2008

Look inside yourself, brainstorm and ask yourself these questions relating
to the different areas of your life:
What’s working? What’s wrong?
What’s holding you back? What’s missing? What’s next? What do I have
to lose?
Is it simple? Does it work? Can I do it? What’s in it for me
Be clear with yourself.
Learn to choose your thoughts
Believe in the Universe’s abundance
Accept your dreams
Make positive affirmations; believe in your mind power and greatness
Work on developing yourself and on increasing your self-esteem, self
Image and self control
Take responsibility for your life: don’t blame anyone else or make excuses;
Develop positive daily habits and self discipline
Learn to reject fears, just do it, get started!
Focus on your vision and on what you want; have a clear picture of your
Ideal, do what you truly desire
Write your values down (what would you die for?)
Love yourself and reject negative self-talk
Set specific, targeted, achievable, measurable goals with deadlines.
Ask yourself “what would I dare to dream if I thought I could not fail?”
Visualize your goals; feel them, as if they were already true
Know your level of desire: how much energy will you put in it? Does it
make you happy?
