The more people hate you, the more money you’ll make.

by

There’s this…

“The more people hate you, the more money you’ll make.”

True?

Well, kinda.

Let me explain WHY this is true.

Here’s what I’m talking about..

You’re an email marketer, or you are learning how to sell via email.

But..

You realize that there is massive competition in email marketing.. or at least there appears to be.

So if there’s so many people trying to sell through email, how does anyone make any money? And why do THOSE specific people make ALL the money?

Well, email marketing is full of people that aren’t competitive, or at least aren’t competitive enough to make a difference.

There aren’t many people willing to take a strong enough stand to make themselves cut through all the noise that’s already out there.

And they stay broke.

So how do you stand out?

You HAVE to make people angry.

You have to p!ss people off so much that they are DRIVEN to reply to your emails and tell you how much they disagree with you.

Why?

If you take a strong enough stand on something, people will either love what you’re saying, or hate what you’re saying (hopefully both).

The people that love what you say, will respect you, will follow you, will watch for your next email, and will buy from you, and will become a long term customer.

The people that hate you… who cares?

The good outweighs the bad.

Put it this way:

Middle of the road marketing doesn’t work.

If you try to please everyone, nobody will care what you say on either side… and that’s the “noise” of the hundreds of emails you get every day (that nobody reads).

I get “hate mail” all the time in my email. I love it. I love it because it means I’ve struck a chord and the ones that agree with me are buying what I’m selling…

..and the ones that don’t agree are sending me whiny boo-hoo emails that they think are going to get to me. However they’re pretty damn entertaining sometimes.

So when I say “The more people hate you, the more money you’ll make.”, you know where I’m coming from.

Now wait a minute.. I’m NOT saying be rude just for the sake of being rude. There are ways to do this without offending anyone, yet still being powerful enough to get people to open and read every time.

It’s a skill you need to learn.

In fact, a while back I spent a couple hours doing a webinar on this exact subject.

It’s in your GlobalNPN backoffice along with all the other awesome Executive training webinar recordings.

Be un-ignorable.

Tell ’em how it is.

Make them angry.

Divide the masses.

If 1 person “hates” you, 5 people will love you.

Stop caring what other people think of you.

Not only will you get followers, you’ll get CUSTOMERS.

And isn’t that what everyone’s trying to do?

Just DECIDE to Do It

by

Hey,

“There’s no middle-class in internet marketing.”

Why doesn’t everyone make a lot of money online?

I mean there really is a drastic difference between earning a “job replacement” online income, and making a few bucks.

There are people that occasionally earn a few bucks here and there, and then there are people that have completely replaced their regular “job income” (and sometimes a lot more) with what they earn online.

Why is that?

What is stopping EVERYBODY from making a lot money online, and not just a select few?

Well, here’s how I see it..

At one end of the spectrum you have the people that will never make any considerable amount of money, and at the other end are the people that will make as much as they want, whenever they want.

The difference is not how skilled they are at marketing, or even their amount of experience.

The difference (that I can tell) is that the big money earners have absolutely NO FEAR when it comes to building a business, making sales, getting new business, and making as much money as they want. They just go and do it, no questions asked.

.. while the rest are content to just talk about success, think about success, dream about success, but not REALLY want to have that success – or have to deal with that success.

make-a-decision

“What if I actually make some sales?”

“What if I have to communicate with more people?”

“What do I do with the money I earn?”

.. and then if they do see some kind of success they shy away from it and lose that success to their own fear of owning it.

So..

Which one are you?

Which one do you WANT to be?

.. really, think about it.

Which one do you think you CAN be?

What are you going to do about it?

Sometimes you have to leave your fears behind and jump in head first.

Set a goal, then go accomplish it.

Put your blinders on and don’t stop until you do.

Make some enemies along the way (it’s okay).

In fact it’s good to piss some people off while on the journey because it means you’re focused on what you want, and you’re willing to push the negativity out of the way and not dwell on it.

Just DECIDE to do it.

.. or stay where you are.

Up to you what you want.

How to Add Menus to your NPN Architect Pages

by

Hey NPN’ers,

Just a quick note that I have added the ability to easily create navigation menus within your NPN Architect editor.

So.. if you want to make mini-sites or just easily link your pages together..

You can set up a menu (or any number of menus) that you can insert into any of your NPN Architect pages.

It’s pretty handy when you need a “terms / privacy policy / support” type of a menu that you’ll use on multiple pages.

The nav menus are located here at the top of your NPN Architect Dashboard:

navmenu

After you setup your menus, you can access them by adding a navigation menu to your pages.

(Drag the “Navigation” icon onto your page):

navigationlink

Then you can edit the appearance of the menu element just like any other element on your page (click the “gear” icon and edit).

That’s all for today.

Please comment and “LIKE” this page – or share if you feel so inclined..

How to Organize Your MMPro Contact Lists into Folders

by

Hey NPN’ers,

If you’ve been in email marketing for any length of time you’ll notice the number of contact lists you have in your autoresponder start to get out of control and disorganized.

ie. You login to your MMPro, view your contact lists, and you see a long page full of your contact lists that seem to have no rhyme or reason as to what they’re all about on an individual basis.

It gets frustrating when you have a couple broadcasts to send out but it takes you forever just to find the contact list you want to send your broadcasts to.

So, what to do..?

This is a feature of our MMPro that hardly anyone uses, probably because they don’t know this feature even exists.

What you can do in the MMPro is switch to something called “folder mode”. What is does is allow you to organize your lists into folders, or categories.

It’s pretty handy when you no longer have to search very long to find the list you want..

Here’s how it works:

Hope this helps you out.

Thanks!

The MMPro now does what?? Awesome..

by

Hey NPNers,

For those of you that missed my FB posts this morning..

Just for fun I did a pretty hefty update to your MMPro autoresponder system.

I Added (or improved) 4 Main Features:

  1. Integrated Surveys – Create and run list-engagement surveys right from your email broadcasts (or autoresponders). You simply don’t know what your list wants.. until you ASK them. So… ask them!
  2. Dynamic Content Tags/Blocks – Deliver ultra-specific content to your lists by creating dynamic content for your list based on certain criteria (custom fiels) of your leads. Kind of like segmenting within your segments.
  3. Automated Email Triggers – Run triggers based on dates, clicks, opens, and subscribe/unsubscribe automation between lists. This completely automates your list management so you can get the MOST from your list – and the most $$.
  4. Faster sending speeds over all. Because… faster = better.

Oh, and I updated the logo. Yay!

And this..

So, as always you have the latest and greatest technology from GlobalNPN.
