Another thing that frustrates the heck out of me is
people who seem to forever be struggling to make ends meet
when they don’t HAVE to.

I see this happen most often simply because those people
sell things that are NOT wanted… at least THEIR SUBSCRIBERS
don’t want them.

If your subscribers aren’t buying something - stop offering
it to them and focus your energies on selling something that
they DO want. That seems intuitive but it’s something that
far too many people don’t do.

Earning a reasonable living online should NOT be a struggle.

Earning a five or six-figure monthly income online is not a
reasonable expectation for many people, but regularly earning a
couple thousand is something anyone can do.

If you haven’t read “20 Ways To Make $100 Per Day Online”
yet, get a copy today.

Read it, mark it up, and then DO the things that it teaches.
That simple ebook shares with you 20 different ways that VERY
ordinary people earn a minimum of $3000 per month online. They
do this working only a few hours per day, spending most of their
time enjoying family and LIFE.

Get a copy of 20 Ways at: http://20Ways.org

I’ll let you in on a hidden income stream there.

There is a customer-only affiliate program for “20 Ways To Make
$100 Per Day online.” It pays 100% commission. After you
purchase the ebook, you are offered the chance to sign up
for the affiliate program. We use Paypal IPN and a number
of other technologies to confirm who is eligible to be an
affiliate, and those affiliates get 100% commissions paid
directly to their Paypal accounts when they make a sale.

When I say that the affiliate program is a hidden gem, I
mean that 95% of customers don’t even notice it. If you look
at our webpage at http://20Ways.org …

You’ll notice that the affiliate program is not even mentioned.

We want you to get the ebook on it’s own merit! At the same
time, I KNOW of several affiliates who’ve shared with me that
they’ve earned in excess of $7000 with just one or two emails.
All
that they did was read the ebook, and then write VERY honest
reviews in their own words, and send them to their lists.

That’s why I get frustrated when I watch people banging their
heads against walls, trying to sell things that NOBODY
wants. That’s crazy.

Check out this ebook now. Give it a read, make lots of notes,
and put what you learn into action. At the same time, tell your
friends about it. Get it at: http://20Ways.org

The ebook was actually written by members of The Internet
Marketing Inner Circle. We are actually in the process now of
writing another group ebook. In this ebook, 100 people will
share
how they earned their first $100 online.

If you are a member of TIMIC, please drop by the forum to get
involved. That’s where the project is being coordinated by Rob
Toth.

If you are not a member of TIMIC, you can still join and get in
on this project. You can join at http://TIMIC.ORG

Watching many of the things going on around me online has me
somewhat frustrated this morning. I actually seldom ALLOW
myself to get frustrated.

Life is simply too short to spend your day all stressed out.

One of the things that DOES upset me is watching others
blatantly STEAL from me and YOU.

If you have any kind of digital products that you’re selling,
there’s a chance that ten times as much of your product is
being passed around by pirates. That could mean that if you
made $1000 in sales this week, there was demand for $11,000
worth but certain people knew where they could get it for free.

Let me explain…

There are actually people who spend a lot of time probing your
websites, looking for unsecured directories, unsecured log
files, etc… anything that gives them the unsecured URL to your

“for sale” product.

Once they discover these URLs, some of these people are
actually a part of communities where they freely SHARE these
URLs. They see something inherently wrong with you making
money from your hard work.

There are many things that you can do to defend yourself
against this. Over the next few issues, I’ll share several
of them with you.

Today, I BEG you to stop ignoring the problem and check
out a program that alerts you to people bold enough to
link to the files right on your server. Those are people
who not only STEAL your stuff… they actually make you pay
for the bandwidth too.

These are people who not only keep you from making more sales,
but if they link to one of your large video or audio packages,
they may actually put you over your bandwidth limit and get your
site shut down!

I’ve seen it happen
Take a few minute now and grab a copy of Hotlink Alarm:
http://HotLinkAlarm.com

Hotlink Alarm alerts you to potential problems and then gives
you lots of options as to what you do next . For example,
you can even redirect the hotlinker’s traffic to your
sales page… or just serve up a banner saying that they’re
stealing from you. It’s easy to set up, and very much worth
a few minutes of your time!

How I Handle Customer Service In 10 Minutes Per Day
Copyright 2008 by Willie Crawford

While attending a recent seminar in Las Vegas, I found
myself in a room with horrible Internet connectivity. As
someone who actively monitors and manages hundreds of
websites, this used to really panic me. Yet, I calmly sat
through many of the seminar presentations, knowing that
all of my customer service concerns were being handled
very promptly.

Let me explain my set-up, and you’ll understand why
customer service is so easy for me now.

I should begin though by pointing out that, as your
online business starts to grow, keeping up with the
customer service issues is often the most challenging
part of running your business.

Just keeping up with all of the emails can be nearly
impossible!

Like many online marketers, I decided to outsource customer
service, but also maintain positive control. I maintain my
own helpdesk (customer service center) where a few assistants
take care of 95% of issues within minutes of them arising.

I route a major percentage of communications through my
helpdesk because that puts everything all in one place. I
have a threaded record of many exchanges, stored in a
secure database, so I can always go back and look up the
details later.

I am a bit of a “control freak” so I haven’t put the life
of my business totally into the hands of strangers. I have
a few customer support assistants that I know fairly well.
I know that they are trustworthy, understand my business,
and have good judgement.

I use a help desk software, called Three Pillars help desk,
but there are other comparable support desk packages. At
under $100, this is an amazingly feature-rich piece of
software though.

The typical customer service interaction is as follows:

1) A customer has a question, lost a download, needs a
software install, wants to joint venture with me, can’t
get a file to open properly, etc…. they visit my help
desk and fill out a help ticket.

I DON’T require them to register. They just fill out the
ticket, and they are entered into the system, receiving an
email confirmation. Actually, before they submit the ticket,
they are encouraged to peruse the “frequently asked questions”
(FAQ) built right into the help desk. Often, the answer to
their concern is right there and they don’t even need to
file a help ticket.

2) As soon as a help ticket is filed, admin assistants
assigned to that “category” of ticket, receive a desktop
notification that a new ticket has been filed. They get
an audible chime, as well as a desktop icon that tells them
how many tickets are awaiting responses.

I have my help desk set up so that I get these same,
notifications. I have it set to check every 15 minutes,
so I can see if any tickets go unanswered for too long.
Usually, my tech support is fairly fast though.

3) Admin assistants log into the admin control panel,
using their unique admin log-ins, and respond to the tickets
in categories assigned to them. They don’t see, and can’t
respond to tickets in categories not assigned to them.

One of the categories at my helpdesk is “Personal For
Willie.” Naturally, I only want those tickets visible to
me. Three Pillars Help Desk Software allows that option.
Tickets regarding JV’s are also only visible to me, but I
could have an assistant assigned to sift through JV
proposals, and have all of those tickets ONLY visible to
that admin. Many of my contemporaries do have assistants
assigned to screen JV proposals… some using the very same
helpdesk setup that I just described.

4) Many of the help tickets that we get can be responded
to with a “one-touch response.” The admin just selects the
answer from a drop-down selection of pre-composed answers,
clicks “send,” and in a matter of SECONDS that ticket is
taken care of. The precomposed answers are assigned to (and
only visible for) specific categories, and the categories
are assigned to specific admins.

Perhaps a customer unfamiliar with PDF’s or .zip files failed
to download and save one properly, or perhaps they don’t know
how to open the file. Perhaps a customer had a harddrive
crash, and needs a replacement copy of an ebook. If my tech
support is provided with proof of purchase, they are
authorized to replace these files. My admins are empowered
to make these types of decisions, that I really shouldn’t
need to get bogged down with.

5) As soon as the ticket is responded to, the customer
gets the response via email, and the desktop notifier, when
it next updates, shows that that ticket has been taken care
of.

I mentioned earlier that I route most communications
through my help desk. This includes requests for joint
ventures, requests for me to broker joint ventures,
request for me to review a product, etc. Details on
how I do all of these things are also included in the
FAQ, so potential JV partners can see if their product
is a likely match before they even file a help ticket.

Email is so unreliable these days. There is nothing
more disconcerting than having a customer upset with you
over not responding to an email that you never even
received. You don’t have that problem with the help desk.
The correspondence is stored right in the database, and
only visible to appropriate parties. You can retrieve
records by name, email address, and a number of other
database variables at any time… even for closed
tickets. So, you have a real treasure of data at your
fingertip.

The FAQ file shows how many views a given question has.
That can show you potential problems, or indicate that
you need to cover a product feature more thoroughly on
your sales letter. Just paying attention to something
like that could easily double your sales of a given
product. The fact is that most prospect, who have a
question, won’t bother asking. So you need to really
pay attention to those who do, and assume that many more
had the same question
Anyway, I’ve just shared with you how I handle customer
service for the hundreds of websites that I actively
manage in mere minutes per day. I haven’t actually
tracked how much time my admin assistants spend responding
to tickets. They haven’t asked for raises in a long time,
so I assume that it’s not very much.

If you want to spend more of your time working on growing
your business, rather than putting out customer service
“fires,” then I highly recommend that you set up your
own help desk. My helpdesk of choice is Three Pillars:
http://ThreePillarsHelpDesk.com but there are others. You
can get as fancy as you want to with a help desk with them
ranging from free to several thousand dollars in price.
Three Pillars Help Desk was designed specifically for Internet
marketers which is why it was a natural choice for me.

When I talk to aspiring Internet marketers, their two
biggest excuses for not being more successful are:

1) They don’t have a lot of traffic.

2) They don’t have a big list.

I’d like to remove both of those excuses THIS WEEK!

First of all… no traffic…

I wrote a report last year where I shared “My Top 10
Most Effective Free Website Traffic Generation Techniques.”
Those techniques haven’t changed for me, with the exception
of this year I “expect” to use the social networking sites
more. I’m still integrating that into the mix though.

Here’s where you can get a copy of my traffic generation
report: http://top10trafficgenerationtechniques.com/

My friend, Carlos Garcia, generates hundreds of MILLIONS of
visitors to his sites and offers routinely. He uses the
CPA/CPM networks. This is a little complex, but is how he
also earns millions of dollars each year.

Carlos and I were on the phone yesterday discussing his
techniques, and a seminar that he has coming up next month.
I’ll be at his seminar getting a better grip on exactly
what he does.

You can get a free copy of a report that explains EXACTLY
what Carlos does at http://TheRealSecrets.com/TheMan/

Now, on to list building…

One of the quickest ways to build a list is to join one
of the free list-building giveaways. You offer a valuable
gift, and in order to get it, people have to opt-in to your
list.

If you offer a quality gift, you’ve started the relationship
off with good feelings and many of those subscribers will
stay on your list for YEARS and eventually become paying
customers.

If you offer JUNK, you’ve started the relationship off “on
a bad footing” and they’re going to remember you as the marketer
who gave them worthless junk. They are going to unsubscribe
very quickly, and perhaps make a mental note never to buy
anything from you.

The next free list-building giveaway that I personally will
participate in should have around 500 JV partners all driving
subscribers to a site. That’s 500 people driving hundreds
of thousands of potential subscribers your way.

All that you need to do is find a decent product that you
own the rights to, and offer it as your gift. This should be
an item good enough that your potential subscribers would
happily PAY for it if they couldn’t get it for free. This is
where most people go wrong in these free giveaways… they
offer something that has never been sold… and never would
sell because it has no real value.

I think that you get the point there.

For this giveaway, I wrote an ebook that is so new that it’s
still at my proofreader. It WILL be available for free
on February 1st, which is when that free giveaway kicks off.

You can register as a JV partner for that free giveaway here:
http://www.giveawaygiant.biz/jv/partners/18

You DO need to be able to act fast though since it kicks off
on Friday!

If you are just interested in the free gifts…
- free ebooks
- free scripts
- free mp3s
- free resale rights
- etc.

I’ll give you that URL on February 1st

I just saw this in my inbox and you can bet it’s going to
cause a MELTDOWN.

If you thought people were freaking out over Mass Control now
…wait until you see this blog post:

http://TheRealSecrets.com/KernsBlogPost/

Here’s the scoop:

Frank Kern is teaching an EXCLUSIVE 2-DAY workshop that’s *just* for the people
who get Mass Control. And he’s doing it as a GIFT to his new members.

The last time he taught a workshop, it was his famous Serializer class
…and it cost $10,000.00 a head.

(Plus it sold out in 54 minutes without a launch.)

—————————————-
THIS ONE COSTS NOTHING
—————————————-

The only “catch” is you have to be a Mass Control customer to
attend.

He’s not letting anyone else go.

Just the people who get Mass Control.

This is probably the single most valuable bonus I’ve ever seen offered.

After all, his last workshop was $10,000.00.

Plus, it’s JUST HIM TEACHING.

No Pitching.

No “All Star Lineup”.

No Fluff.

Frank says it’ll be 100% content and hot seats
…just like he did at his $10K Serializer events.

You can get the full story here:
http://TheRealSecrets.com/KernsBlogPost/

…but you need to know this:

If you’re at ALL interested in Mass Control, you need to be ready to
come on board on Friday, February 1st at 9:00 PM *PACIFIC* time.

Frank says he’s only taking somewhere in the neighborhood of
500 people …and there are over 43,000 people in line for
Mass Control as of today.

Even if he took 2,000 it would fill up.

You can see why he’s limiting it here:
http://TheRealSecrets.com/KernsBlogPost/

————————————————–
IT’S ONLY GOING TO GET “WORSE”
————————————————–

Once people find out about this workshop he’s
giving away, there’s going to be even MORE
demand for Mass Control than there already is.

Think about it. Everybody already wants Mass Control …and this
is just like throwing fuel on the fire.

And since everybody and their brother is promoting Mass Control,
this means the entire Internet is going to find out about this
today.

——————————
MY ADVICE TO YOU
——————————

I believe that only YOU can decide if Mass Control is right
for your business.

I’ve seen the actual course and it’s amazing.

I personally recommend it and am willing to stake my reputation
on it.

HOWEVER - that’s just *my* opinion.

If you’re interested in it, you should have a look at the SEVEN free videos and the
three hours of audio case studies Frank has here:

http://TheRealSecrets.com/KernsBlogPost/

(Just look for the links on the left.)

Talk soon,
Willie Crawford

P.S. I’m not alone in telling you that the content you can get here for free
is easily better than 99% of the stuff you’d pay $1,000.00 for:
http://TheRealSecrets.com/KernsBlogPost/

And if you’re wondering why so many people are behind Mass Control,
then you need to look no further than this amazing free content.

After all …if the free stuff is this good, imagine what the REAL course is like!
