A ’Caveman Simple Way’ to Run INSANELY Profitable “Ads” on Social Media WITHOUT Advertising

Written by Ferny Ceballos | Filed under Attraction Marketing

There’s a term in the advertising world used to refer to someone who’s learned to ignore ads on websites and social media to the point where their brain literally refuses to see, acknowledge or process information in banner ads.

The term is “banner blindness.”

It’s the one type of blindness we are all grateful to develop, even those of us who are internet advertisers.

For example, on this heat map study tracking eye movement of Facebook Users, you’ll notice that the majority of users pretty much ignore the “Right Hand Side” ads.

Another eye tracking study tracked eye movement for a news site (similar to a blog) and notice how the banner on the left is completely ignored, relative to the content in the middle.

Over the years, mentors of mine taught about ‘banner blindness’ and conveyed the importance of doing whatever you could to snap website visitors out of that state of ‘blindness’ and to notice your ad.

So even if you had strong ad copy, it wouldn’t really matter unless you could ‘break the blindness’ issue and literally attract eyeballs.

How to Connect with Your Most Profitable Audience

Written by Andrew T Draughon | Filed under Attraction Marketing

“Think Jaws…in space.”

That’s how Ridley Scott’s Alien was pitched to 20th Century Fox (…with the unfortunate working title of Star Beast).

“Think Pocahontas…in space.”

That’s definitely NOT how James Cameron pitched Avatar to Fox studios, though it would have been an apt summary of the plot. Likewise, FernGully, The Last Samurai, and Dances with Wolves (all in space) would have worked too.

Perhaps surprisingly, Fox initially rejected Cameron’s proposal on the grounds of his overly-ambitious vision (and astronomical production budget of $237 million).

Critics were likewise skeptical, predicting the film would be a major box office disappointment.

Cameron, however, was undeterred by the naysayers.

His sentiment is that pressure is good for filmmakers, that pressure…

“Makes us think about our audience and what they want.”

And clearly Cameron succeeded.

Avatar became the highest grossing film in history on January 26th, 2010, at $2,779,404,183 USD worldwide.

Which begs the question…

How does a story we’ve been told numerous times become the biggest blockbuster of all time?

Well, it’s quite simple, really…

It all comes down to one thing:

Understanding how to connect with your audience.

That’s how you put butts in seats.

That’s how you move audiences to tears at the sight of a CGI tree burning to the ground (…or was that just me?).

And that’s also how, in online entrepreneurship…

Hypnotize People to Hang on Your Every Word

Written by Vitaly Grinblat | Filed under Attraction Marketing

There’s an often-neglected consideration that makes ALL the difference to your marketing success.

And that is…

READERSHIP.

In other words, unless your prospect actually reads your message (or listens to and/or watches it), there’s absolutely NO chance of you making a sale.

Now before we move on, I need to get something off my chest.

Just so that we’re on the same page.

The thing is, people are generally skeptical of…

Why Top Recruiters Are Almost NEVER Top Earners

Written by Ferny Ceballos | Filed under Attraction Marketing

This past week, I had a wonderful conversation with a top earner in a fast growing company, named Laura.

Laura is actually part of a small elite group of top producers, who recently started working with Elite Marketing Pro to help take their business building efforts online and supplement the incredible success they’ve had offline.

As I asked her questions about her background and on how she built her downline organization – including her building philosophy, the type of people she recruits, how she trains new people as they come in, the timing of promotions she runs , etc. and to my surprise, I found myself silently nodding my head ‘yes’ to everything she was doing in her business.

Could you believe it?

A pure ONLINE recruiting advocate, such as myself, was excited and in total agreement with how a top income earner in the industry built her business OFFLINE!

In fact, many of the things I hated about traditional business building in this industry, she didn’t like either!

I had found my offline soul-mate. :-)

She didn’t believe in…

5x Your Income Through Imperfect Action

Written by Andrew T Draughon | Filed under Attraction Marketing

Picture this…

You’re a stay at home mom who’s never made more than $700/month freelancing, while raising your family full time.

Now imagine your surprise when you smash your income goals, re-imagining what’s possible as you break through…

…$1,000/month…

…$2,000/month…

…$2,500/month…

…and now over $5,000/month…

…all in under one year.

That’s exactly what Danielle Sweet Ellis achieved as she absolutely crushed her goals, broke through all her limiting beliefs and income barriers, and is now growing her business faster and more profitably than she ever imagined.

Recently Danielle sat down to discuss how to…

How I Almost Got Into a Fight with my MIT Buddy, ‘Cause He “Dissed” My Business

Written by Ferny Ceballos | Filed under Attraction Marketing

Now networkers, especially those of us who have attempted to build offline, are no strangers to rejection and negative friends, family and others who don’t like our industry very much.

Now you’d think because of my background as engineer and MIT graduate, my friends and family would give me the benefit of the doubt and trust my judgement when I got into this industry.

But alas, like probably many folks you know, they all thought they knew better and they definitely let me know it.

After some of these heated conversations and arguments, I can’t begin to describe how stupid I felt sometimes for even wanting to build a network marketing business and how stupid I felt for getting involved in this industry.

They would tell me, “Ferny! You’re an MIT graduate! You work on top secret space stuff for the government! What the hell are you doing selling vitamins?!?”

In my head, I wanted to yell back at them, “I WANT MY FREEDOM, DAMMIT!!”

However, early on usually after one of these encounters, I would feel defeated and stupid. Sometimes walking away with tears in my eyes.

And then, I would catch myself and tell myself, “You’re doing the right thing.” Shake off the negative crap and continue forward…wounded…but moving forward.

From 2005—2008, not only did I deal with negativity and had actually destroyed myself financially trying to build my business – having gone into foreclosure and was over $60,000 in debt – spending endlessly on tools, courses and shiny objects, which produced zero ROI. But even financial ruin was not going to deter me.

The year of 2009, was a turning point and I started digging myself out of that financial mess.

How I did it, I will share in a little bit…

But I was on my way and things were working. I was recruiting people with ease into my opportunity, hitting the 6-figure mark in my company and built a multi-six figure brand online.

Things were looking up…

Here’s a big, bold promise:

You’re about to learn 6 crucial psychological triggers that will help you generate more leads, get more sales, and make MORE MONEY … starting today!

Now, before we dive in, let me take a second and tell you WHY we want to use psychological triggers and persuasion to get people to take action.

After all, if you sell a good product, shouldn’t it sell on its own?

Wouldn’t people just line up in frenzy outside your door, so to speak, and demand to buy your product, service or join your business?

Yeah, well, unfortunately … that’s wishful thinking.

If that was the case, companies wouldn’t need marketing departments, sales people, or advertising budgets.

Here’s what you have to remember…
