Hi Maj,

Does this trading platform provide transparent visibility to all trades?

Cheers

Reminds me of when I was doing the Amway thing. People would ask similar questions, although most had to do with MLM being "illegal". Of course it was legal and even though I reached a very successful level, one of the people I sponsored soared right by me. My point is that anyone, who puts in enough effort and invites enough people, can do as well or better than their sponsor. A better question would be, "am I a good teacher?"

Very fair point on the "Am I a good teacher" point!!

Would you ask me how much I earned when I was administering Anesthesia?

Very different things. 

I feel it was a reasonable question considering the income opportunity is half the "sell".

I must admit that I wasn't surprised when I started to see a lot of the advertising in the MMO niche start to include messages related to COVID-19 but I was certainly disgusted and embarrassed to be involved in an industry doing so.

The only advertising or promotions that should ethically include a COVID related message is those that promote official health and safety messages, fact checkers, myth busters, or possibly some form of charity seeking to assist those on the front line.

All the big platforms are outwardly doing their best to take down the miracle cures and misinformation but I still see a lot of supposed cures or supposed preventative stuff or even the incredible conspiracy theories in safe lists and TEs. Makes me cringe every time.

And even simply relating a seemingly regular online business to COVID, for example those along the lines of "Stuck at home due to COVID? Make Money while you do it with [insert random pitch here]" - this is straight up immoral.

I understand the marketing theory behind it and the temptation to take advantage of an environment that sees a huge potential increase in online income seekers.

I have nothing wrong with marketing to these people who may now have lots more time on their hands or have lost their jobs and be looking for an alternative solution BUT in my opinion these people will only see your ad if they are already looking at it!!! So just sell your product or service. Simple as that! There is no need to link your product or service with the current health situation, people know they are at home with more time, people know they need an alternative income if that is indeed the case.

Just my two cents.

Anyone using COVID as a marketing tactic is wasting their credits/ clicks when I see it. Stand by and sell your product for the value it has! In other words, Sell your product and not your soul.

Stay safe all!

Cheers

Hi All,

Today I wanted to share a brand new Free Traffic Exchange from Smith who has built his TE with help from the owner of Hungry For Hits.

It's free, fast easy traffic to your websites.

And for anyone who takes the really cheap Pro upgrade you will be given access to some really cool software "Quick Clicker" which will help you surf any number of traffic exchanges at super speed.

Check it out: https://fastnfurioustraffic.com/?rid=75

Cheers

I love it too. The business side interests me more than the social and the Residual Income is awesome. They are now over 4 million members strong and still growing rapidly. I also like the Magic Newsfeed.  https://earn.webtalk.co/6513843

Tell me more about webtalk?

I am looking for a social media type platform for my business, not as a platform to post ads to others but to build business relationships, just like I can on all the free social media platforms.

Will this work for my purpose? Can I create pages? Can I create private and public groups? 

I also note it is still in beta and contrary to some of the above posts stating they reached X amount of users in X amount of months (noting this forum thread started in 2018) is inaccurate? The business launched in 2010 or 2013? The domain waspurchased in 2010 but appears maybe 2013 is when members were accepted?

And this whole "Paid for life for the first 1 million" , that is only once the have 1 million paid members right? which they do not have 7 years later.

Is this still running? Is it useful?

Besides connecting with others in the world of business (just like I can here on this forum for free) what other benefits will I get when I join?

Cheers

Nate

 

I too use TrafficWave. Email Marketing is Still King.

 

The first thing people do when they enter the office is Check their Email (58%).

 

Social Media, News Outlets, internal Office Networks and other forms of communication all represent a specific demographic. Like Facebook, 90% of daily users are from outside USA/Canada. Instgram 65% of users are age 18-34. LinkedIn is majority age demographic is 30 to 49.

 

Hereis another one, 3.27% of Americans use LinkedIn. 75% of Americans have at least 1 email address.

 

One last thought, ... duh. In order to have a social media you must provide an email. Email is King.

 

Everyone has email, literally everyone. People from age 15 to 65 over 90% have email. Age 65 and up 85% have email.

 

When they open their email first thing will they see your message?

 

Now you can learn how to use Email Marketing to your best advantage. Don't Spam people, connect with them. Use email to build relationships and to train and encourage you affiliate downline.

 

Check my ebook in my signature, 4 steps to cash flow. It is on Email Marketing

 

I have used traffic wave in the past, mainly enticed by the comp plan which as it turns out is unrealistic. I would be surprised if even Brian has a full 3x10 paying him.

But that is not the point of my post, I 100% agree that email marketing and ARs are an essential for IM and to be honest any business on or offline.

I also love the stats and references in every one of your posts (those I have read anyway) George! And the way you provide comparison statistics as well that such as your linkedin to email stat. Very interesting stuff I do wonder about at times but have never bothered to research!

Cheers

Hi Nate,

 

I have a bad habit of leaving money to accumulate in programs that I promote.

 

I lost over $900.00+ dollars left in my Payza account that I'm sure that I will never see.  

 

AIOP owe me over $200.00+ that I haven't requested yet...

I have the same habit! Not so high, and I also do it with credits, sometimes I just cannot keep up and miss a day or two (I envy your work ethic posting 365 days a year!) and waste a lot of credits as they build up higher than I can send to.

But what I meant was, when you say you are working harder and smarter, your results are no longer luck! Your results are because of you working hard and smart.

I have read a lot of your posts and you seem to be very consistent with your advertising.

When it comes to $, I usually try and withdraw anything at $100 +, because below that it is a loss if they close down but it is not the end of the world and my business will not be hurt too much, but losing any more than that would start to hurt.

Cheers

Nate

I’m a member of FAFY AIOP Team.

 

Your success will depend on you and you along.

 

I have found the harder and smarter that I work the luckier I get.

 

In other words, I post simple free ads 365(6) days a year to get my ads in front of as many people as I can.

In regards to "I have found the harder and smarter that I work the luckier I get."

Can I just point out that that is NOT luck!!! That is hard and smart work! But you are so right.

I haven't tried but will find out for you very soon!

From what I can see at a glance you can add prospects but I can't find any function to import an entire list. I will submit a support ticket to ask as it is something I would like to know myself anyway.

Cheers

Nate

Thanks Nate. Is it possible to import an existing list into AIOP?

I haven't tried but will find out for you very soon!

Anyone know if this thing is still in "pre launch"?

Must be about 2 years now

Good Advice Nate.

 

Check your MailOurList website... I sent you some credits ;-)

Well thank you!

I will be mailing after work today so will definitely make the most of it!

firebyfifty,

 

Appreciate your opinion. I understand that the specific data my not be helpful. But...

 

The data is meant to show a trend not a call to compete with Netflix. It is not a new trend. It is a trend we have all known for some time now. But it is seriously accelerated. 

 

Most ads come and go in a moment, especially banner ads. What I have had some real traction with are short educational video that have my banner ads piggybacking the video display.

 

I do make videos and for the first time I am seeing more and more "complete views" of the video. People have the time to pay attention, and they are.

 

I would suggest getting video into your promotional plans in some fashion to some degree.

 

Are you using Facebook Live for instance? 

 

Here is a self made video, my resume essentially http://tinyurl.com/y69n36jv When I recruit a new prospect I send this out. In the past people would watch 50% or more on average, now most people are watching to completion. And offering feedback.

 

 

And here is a educational video, with my banner ads attached. http://www.syrwebdesign.com/r/geo/JimR My tracking tells me the banners are getting clicked and I have 2 new affiliates in April that track to this video.

Very fair response and assessment.

And I especially take note of this line: "I do make videos and for the first time I am seeing more and more "complete views" of the video. People have the time to pay attention, and they are."

which I find very interesting that the time people now may have on their hands is leading to a more complete view.

I do use video quite a bit in my marketing so will definitely have to look into any change in the "complete" or "partial" views of my videos to see if there has been an increase lately.

Cheers

Nate

Hi Ted, thanks for your post and advices. I'm sorry, but I have joined the FAFY AIOP Team before I read your post and the team is helpful. So far, I've gotten 1 paid downline from their help.

 

Btw, I joined the Safelist Organizer from your RocktheBizOps page. I use a lot of safelists/viral mailers and I want to see how the Safelist Organizer could make my safelist marketing efforts more efficient.

I agree with Ted,

It comes down to the individual as well as the team. 

Most teams will have their members best interests at heart and will be doing their best to promote and help their members get referrals and earn. But with any affiliate marketing there is a need for the affiliate to promote promote promote! 

And to do this every day. Use the team system if one is available as in order to continue earning commissions month after month you need your referrals to see some success and be earning too. But on top of any team system you should be promoting AIOP as much as you can consistently and efficiently every single day.

I run the AIOP Elite Action team with some partners and we have a great bunch of team members who work very hard for each other and always help each other out but I also felt the need to create alternative methods to building my AIOP business through my 90 Minute residuals eBook (which anyone can make use of regardless of any team you are part of) as it allowed me to tailor how I was building AIOP and strengthen my overall business and income.

Key message, any team can be successful and all will have differences but the key is YOU!

Cheers

Nate

I've never joined AIOP but lately I'm very tempted to do so. I currently use GetResponse - I've tried a few other autoresponders but GetResponse seems to me to be the most intuitive to use and the most professional. I'd like to hear from someone who's used both - how do they compare (apart from the payplan, of course)?

 

Can I import my GetResponse leads into AIOP?

 

Are they still paying out via PayPal and if not what processor(s) do they use?

I use AIOP every day and I have also used Get Response and still use Aweber.

I find AIOP has different use cases to Get REsponse and Aweber.

AIOP as the name suggests is All In One, and can be used as a complete funnel builder, it has hosting, the AR, inbuilt page builders, copy campaigns and more.

Then of course the pay plan which has it's pros and cons but works well for me and my AIOP Elite Action Team.

I also used it as part of my rebrandable eBook 90 Minute Residuals successfully.

So, while I still have a use for Aweber (and Get Response I find as filling similar needs which is basically integration with almost anything and AIOP is not as easily integrated with some things) I find a lot of use for AIOP as an all rounder and I make good money with them too.

I have also never had an issue with their support team and agree with a post above that they have handled payment processor shutdowns and issues fairly well.

Cheers

Nate

Cannot argue with this, it is 100% spot on and I feel a lot of affiliate marketers put too much emphasis on the product they promote (sell) and not themselves.

Everyone will tell you that you need a list and this is why.

But to be successful ongoing and end up one of those diamonds making residual income of any significant level you need to build that relationship, that trust with your customer or prospect who in turn helps to ensure others also trust you.

Cheers

Nate

 

Are you engaging your prospects?

Right now everyone is looking for something to watch catch these Stats:

 

Increase for "Watching" Searches 423%

Increase for "Movie" Searches 643%

Increase for "TV" Searches 999%

 

So Video content is a must for your marketing. Get peoples eyes on your offers.

GIPHY has provided a key GIF of content trends from March. 

http://www.syrwebdesign.com/r/geo/ViewersGif

 

Interesting stats but is it relevant to marketing online?

Unless I am a movie maker or own a streaming platform of significant quality (i.e: can compete with netflix) I don't think these stats are all that useful.

They inform me that people want to watch movies and/ or TV shows. Almost zero of the people conducting these searches would be looking for a marketing video aimed at selling them something, in my opinion.

Cheers

Nate

Wow. It's sad to see that. I just logged in and saw that. She should probably sell it to someone who has access to a programmer who can update it. It's a pretty strong brand in the safelist and traffic exchange industry. I would be surprise if nobody wanted to purchase it. It continues having so much potential.

I remember using AdKreator in my first foray online back in 2010 or so, it's sad to see this but I also feel that the company simply did not keep up with the times. Over the last few years I have felt myself cringe every time I see an adKreator page in the TEs or safelists as they are just not of any quality.

Cheers

Nate

Thanks for the warning.

hopefully you paid using a method that allows you to complain or dispute the payment - this in the long run will be the most effective method to get them shut down.

Cheers

Nate

Hi Colin and Nate,

 

I think both programs are great. I never was a fan of the

PMS backoffice though (sorry Darren)    I think is has something

to do with the flow or maybe harder to navigate for a newer

person.  

 

I do believe the audience is the same for both. (work from home)

but I think 90minuteresiduals is more focused on people that want 

safelists and mailers as their main form of marketing. Build your list,

build your advertising power, that's what you should be using safelists 

and mailers for anyways. 

 

When you have built up your list and advertising power, then you can

incorporate PMS and start building your other programs outside of

the safelist and mailers arena.( ie, Forex, CBD, SFI )

 

Regards,

 

Ted

Hi Ted,

Thanks for jumping in!

I should have been clearer, when I mentioned different target audiences I was actually referring to my specific plans with each.

I built 90 Minute Residuals with a specific purpose for my members and this does have a specific focus on safe lists and mailers and generating members lot's of traffic efficiently while giving them a simple way to essentially 'copy and paste' the required business tools and funnel tools which is also a main income stream.

From there I hope many of my members use what they have learned along with the traffic they have learned to generate efficiently to inspire on how they can create their own funnels or systems etc.

PMS is something I joined way back and gave up and I also struggled with the back office but I do really like the ability to customise everything with the owner ad on - and that can allow a lot of versatility which I plan on setting up to target a different type of target audience for my business.. (I have recently re joined to try and set something up with a different spin to my 90 Minute Residuals business).

But you are right, both businesses at a high level are geared toward the same audiences. It is just what the user does with them!

Anyway, appreciate the feedback.

Cheers

Nate

hi Nate, thanks all of you for this infos! i will need that in the coming time while i'm interested in writing my own eBook!

no worries, reach out if you have any questions along the way!

cheers

Nate

Hi Nate,

 

I just downloaded the ebook and read it in one go and love it.

 

It is complete online business plan. Well done!!!!

 

Unfortunately I just joint Prosperity which is very similar to the program you are promoting in the ebook, so i will not be joining you.

 

But I still highly recommend anyone to read your ebook.

 

Regards

Colin

Thanks Colin,

Appreciate the feedback!!

And I am also a fan and a member of PMS and I have only good things to say about it so can't argue with your decision there!

I currently promote both with very different focuses and target audiences.

Cheers

Nate

Hi Nate,

 

I don't think it is, I saw an ad for it today and his picture was on

the adbar, and it wasn't the same Brian.

 

I had a Brian Rooney that signed up under me at AIOP and thought

is was the Brian from Trafficwave at first, but found out it wasn't ;-)

Thanks for confirming!

I suppose it isn't all that an uncommon name but an interesting coincidence in the IM world.

Is this the same Brain Rooney from Trafficwave??

I believe it is. Brian launched a mailer or TE (can't remember which) a few months ago also - I'm not sure if this is the same one that just made it to this forum now.

I have never had much luck with TW or the ad platform with the same comp plan but I can say I have always received decent support when I required it from Brian so I may have to check this one out for some traffic..
