			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the past few weeks I&#8217;ve been discovering what I really want to achieve with my marketing. I figured it out.</p>
<p>It got me thinking what I should do. What I enjoy, what I vision myself doing in the future, what can I make money at, and can I be good at it. Those are the most important thing.</p>
<p>I remembered something Stephen Pierce said, &#8220;Nothing moves without a sale.&#8221; It&#8217;s true.</p>
<p>Take some time to discover what your really passionate about that will generate money for you. Also, find out what you can be the best at and go with it.</p>

<p>Now it can be easier.</p>
<p><span id="more-182"></span></p>
<p>What if you had 1 password to remember for everything. Not only will you have 1 password, you can also have form information auto populate.</p>
<p>How can you do that? Use <a href="http://www.lastpass.com/" target="_blank">Last Pass</a>. Last Pass is also cross platform compatible. It will work on Windows, Linux, or Mac, and on Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, or Chrome.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s just the begining. If you upgrade to Premium, there are many more benefits you will see.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been with GDI for a long time now. Until now they have had one compensation plan. I logged into my members area this week and found out something really cool.<br />
<span id="more-179"></span></p>
<p>Now GDI offers a premium package. You can make a ton more if you have upgraded members. You can earn an excellent $15 a month on your first level and $5 each month on levels 2-5 for every premium member you have if you are a premium member.</p>
<p>I plan on adding this to my sales pages for my team.</p>
<p><a href="http://website.ws/members" target="_blank">Login</a> to GDI and see how many premium members you have. If you have 3 or more on your first level or 8 or more on levels 2-5, upgrade, it will benefit you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone has experienced this at one time in there life.</p>
<blockquote><p>The Zeigarnik Effect is the tendency to experience intrusive thoughts about an objective that was once pursued and left incomplete. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.psychwiki.com/wiki/Zeigarnik_Effect">PsychWiki.com</a></p></blockquote>
<p><span id="more-164"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://changingminds.org/explanations/memory/zeigarnik_effect.htm"><img alt="Bluma Wulfovna Zeigarnik" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v110/azeigarn/family/scan1788.jpg" title="Bluma Wulfovna Zeigarnik" class="alignnone" width="75" height="90" /></a><br />
Russian psychologist Bluma Zeigarnik found in 1927 that when we are holding things in short-term memory, we have to rehearse them otherwise they disappear, like a light going out.</p>
<p>This effect can be used in your sales pages. If you make an offer that so irresistible, then tell them to take action like <em>click here</em> or <em>send an email</em>, that creates curiosity and is an example of the Zeigarnik Effect.</p>
<p>I just had my programmer finish changes on <a href="http://retirementstyleincome.ws">RetirementStyleIncome.ws</a> and am working on a new sales page that will use this powerful strategy. Begin using this in your sales copy and you will see an increase in sales.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Envisioning where you want to be is a great place to get started. You need to write a Vision Statement.<br />
<span id="more-157"></span></p>
<p>You need to know what you want to achieve. Saying you want a million dollars is nice, but you need to dig deeper.</p>
<p>Envision you own a business. What do you want the business to do. How much do you want to build the business up to. If you want a 100 million dollar business, write it down.</p>
<p>You want your vision to be as clear as you can. Once you have a vision, then you can plan your actions based on your vision. Write down each item like a list.</p>
<p>Now take that list and make a Vision Statement out of it.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s all for now.</p>
<p>Curtis</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s the last part on lead generation.</p>
<p>Generating leads is not all about making a sales page and following up with email. You also need to communicate with them in real time.<br />
<span id="more-147"></span></p>
<p>You can add social media to your websites, phone, or even a custom program. It&#8217;s called social networking or web 2.0. There are many different web 2.0 software available including</p>
<ul>
<li><a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com">Twitter</a></li>
<li><a target="_blank" href="http://youtube.com">YouTube</a></li>
<li><a target="_blank" href="http://linkedin.com">LinkedIn</a></li>
<li><a target="_blank" href="http://facebook.com">Facebook</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Those are just a few social media sites that you can use. Use them to build awareness and traffic to your website.</p>
<p>Social networking is viral. For example, YouTube. You can create a video, upload it to YouTube and millions of people can view it.</p>
<p>You can add a link in your video&#8217;s so whoever watches the video can come to your website and join your list or get more information. The traffic is free and lead generation value is money in your pockets.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s all for now. Follow me on social media sites.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lead generation is not all about generating leads. You also need to give your leads quality content.<br />
<span id="more-126"></span><br />
That is one reason why blogging is so important. You can reach thousands of people. </p>
<p>Let&#8217;s say you have 5 prospects that have the same question. With a blog, you could respond to one persons question and the other 4 people wouldn&#8217;t have you ask the same question, freeing you up.</p>
<p>Also with a blog, you can automate it. Let&#8217;s say you write 5 posts one day. You can schedule those posts to be displayed at times you specify.</p>
<p>&#8211;</p>
<p>Blogs are search engine friendly, but you need to modify a few things. The most important things are your permalinks, or your address to the post, your blogs title, and your blogs description.</p>
<p>By modifying these few things, you can rank higher in the search engines when the spiders/bots come to your blog.</p>
<p>&#8211;</p>
<p>The last thing I wanted to tell you is how to get and setup your own blog.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve created a <a target="_blank" href="http://retirementstyleincome.ws">program</a> that will allow you to setup a website, create a blog on it, and create a monthly residual income, all in one.</p>
<p>First, you need a domain name or website address. I recommend <a target="_blank" href="http://freedom.ws/webomania">Global Domains International</a>.</p>
<p>Once you have a domain, you need a place to store your website. I recommend <a target="_blank" href="http://curtisanderson.gogvo.com">GVO</a>. You can create a blog from the cPanel using Fantastico De Luxe.</p>
<p>Well that all for now. I hope to hear from you soon. Tell me what you think of my posts/topics.</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Curtis Anderson</p>
