Global NPN Webinar Update

Hello all..

In case you missed last night’s webinar, below is the recording for your convenience.

(Note that the last 15 minutes have been cut off, which was the question & answer, and general discussion period. Sorry, you have to attend to benefit from that.)

There is a TON of new features being added to your membership which will easily increase the value of being an NPN member over and above ANY other product suite/opportunity out there. 

The timing is right and becoming a member NOW will get you in on the “ground floor” for the most profitable time of the entire marketing year! So if you’re not an active member, upgrade TODAY!

Feel free to share this information with your team members and your downlines.

What happened to Payza?

Hello all.

CLICK PLAY TO LISTEN:

[hr]

As some of you may already know, Payza has recently updated their user agreement and acceptable use policies.

Here is their update on their blog:

https://blog.payza.com/user-agreement-updates/user-agreement-update

The most notable part being this in their “Activities Not Allowed” section:

“Selling of Unregistered/Unlicensed Stocks, bonds, securities, options, futures, or investments in any entity or property, including (but not limited to) corporations and partnerships or sole proprietorship, are prohibited:

  • Solicitation, marketing campaign, direct selling or any other comparative effort will be considered a violation of the User Agreement. If you are registered or licensed to take such action, you may be requested to present documentation demonstrating authority to do so from a Securities Exchange Commission, Commodities Futures Trading Commission or other equal and comparative agency.”

What this is saying is that they won’t deal with HYIP’s or pyramids or ponzi’s anymore. Any of those so-called “investment” sites.

Obviously we are not one of those sites, we are not similar in any way to those sites. GlobalNPN is a real business. However Payza will probably group us all under the same category of high-risk mlm. I’ve seen it before. It’s not their fault, it’s the credit card companies that have these policies.

So… how does this affect GlobalNPN and LeadSkimmer??

Well, it won’t affect the way we do business and it won’t affect our payout structure. And it certainly will NOT affect you being able to receive commissions for your GlobalNPN business.

There seems to be some misconception that if Payza won’t do business with us, we will cease to exist. I’m not sure why but some people think that’s the case.

THAT IS NOT THE CASE WITH GLOBALNPN/LEADSKIMMER

People that use Payza to pay for their NPN membership accounts for less than 20% of our entire membership. ie. not many NPN’ers use Payza. Why? Because we already have an easier way to pay and get paid.

GlobalNPN does it’s own 100% secure credit card processing through our own merchant accounts and banks (it’s what real businesses do). We accept payment with Visa or Mastercard directly. NO third party processor is involved. Payza or any other processor isn’t even in the picture. They’re not necessary in our case.

As far as paying commissions, again we have our own re-loadable debit card that you can order for FREE from your NPN backoffice. And every month we simply load your commissions right onto your debit card, and you can use it like any other Mastercard, or withdraw your funds from any ATM around the world, completely global. You can even pay for your NPN membership with that debit Mastercard. It doesn’t get any easier. No payza involved.

Another feature that’s really convenient with regards to your debit card is that you (or anyone else) can load funds onto your card. They just need your card number and they can go to the Payoneer website and put money right onto your card.

So.. what’s next?

Here’s the scenario.

IF Payza decides that they won’t do business with us because of their policies, no big deal. It doesn’t affect our business.

So what will be happening is this:

For GlobalNPN and LeadSkimmer, you will have the option of getting paid onto your GlobalNPN debit card, or you can request a paper check in US funds that we will mail to you.

Personally I’d rather not use any online payment processor because of the amount of fraud that goes through them, and because in our case they’re not really necessary. But if need be, we will hook up with a different processor that can satisfy our long term needs for our businesses.

So those are my thoughts based on what I know. I’ve heard that Payza’s policies go into affect on July 20th, which I can’t confirm because I haven’t heard from them either way.

Back to business as usual.

Any questions let me know.

4 Free Tools For Creating Awesome Websites

Hi guys,

Today I’d like to provide you with four free tools I’ve found that might be of use to you when doing internet marketing related websites and salespages.

The first one is called the Ultimate Graphics Creator.

It allows you to create very professional looking headlines, ‘buy now’ buttons, money back guarantee boxes, and purchase boxes. It’s free and really easy to use:

The next one is a free EBook Cover creator called “My eCover Maker”.

With this you can make very high quality eBook covers for your salespages/squeezepages. If you’re not good with Photoshop, this might be the tool you’re looking for.

http://www.myecovermaker.com/

 

This next one is something I’ve used quite a bit when determining what different color schemes I should be using on a page or a site. It allows you to mix and match colors and combinations of colors to see which ones work together and which ones do not. Good for those of you that need new ideas for color combos on your websites.

One more.. The simplest one that I’ve used the most. Need to convert the color that you actually want into an HTML color code? Use this:

I have just uploaded over 135 Megabytes of products, downloads, and content that are FREE for you to use as you like!

Director Level (or higher) members can download these by clicking on “Bonus Downloads” in the menu in your NPN backoffice. (under ‘NPN Products’)

So what is all this stuff?

These are downloadable products that are licensed as “PLR”, which means you can download them and use them however you like.

Here is a listing of what is currently there for you – (click here).

Here are some of the things you can do with them…

[YES] Can be edited.

Use them as-is, or copy and paste any of the content from these products and use it as your own, whatever you like! Many of them come complete with their own built-in sales funnel pages (squeeze pages, landing pages etc.)

A couple of important points:

So… Go for it! Click on “Bonus Downloads” in the menu in your NPN backoffice and you will see them there.

Does LeadSkimmer Convert?

Hi guys,

Just thought I’d let you in on a very interesting statistic..

I had a question this morning from one of our members asking if LeadSkimmer members ever upgrade to GlobalNPN through their backoffice. So I did a little bit of research on what the latest conversion ratios were.

I have everything programmed in Leadskimmer and GobalNPN to ensure that we can tell where our signups are coming from.

What I looked for was the percentage of Leadskimmer members that joined GlobalNPN through their LeadSkimmer backoffice, and then upgraded to GlobalNPN (at the Director level).

What I found was that we have a conversion ratio of a whopping 16%!

What that means is that 16% of everyone that joined NPN through their sponsor’s LeadSkimmer backoffice upgraded to Director in NPN! Nice!

So, what we have here, folks, is a very efficient sales funnel.

LeadSkimmer itself has 3 ways to earn money:

  1. LeadSkimmer Premium Upgrade commissions
  2. Sales from Entry Ads
  3. Your own followup to your Leadskimmer leads.

..And throw GlobalNPN into the mix and you have…

  • your upfront one-time commissions PLUS..
  • your back end recurring income stream… all built in.

Remember that your leadskimmer leads get added to YOUR contact list, so if you have anything else to market to them, that’s more money for you.

In a nutshell, this works. Nothing I have ever done has converted traffic into leads better than the Leadskimmer capture page. Nothing.

BUT you have to DO it.

Here are some of my own stats that I’ve tested through:

  • LeadSkimmer free leads to LeadSkimmer Premium or GlobalNPN Upgrade: 13%
  • GlobalNPN free join (from Leadskimmer backoffice), to GlobalNPN Director upgrade: 21%

For those of you that don’t know much about conversion rates. Those are good 😉

If your own conversion rates aren’t as good, it’s simply the result of the quality of the traffic you’re throwing at it.

Here are a couple points to remember when promoting LeadSkimmer:

  1. If your traffic isn’t converting into leads, you need to find a different (better) traffic source. If this is the case, DON’T keep pounding it with the same non-converting traffic, move on..
  2. If your leads aren’t upgrading (or doing anything), the problem could be with your followup, but if this is the case it’s usually your lead source (see item #1). “Garbage in, garbage out.”

So get out there and start promoting your LeadSkimmer affiliate link. Just do it. It works.
