Creating Multiple Sources of Income with Clickbank

I just made a video for one my projects and it involved explaining how you should not believe that the economy is all bad just because the mass media is bombarding us with bad new. This is a period when the Law of Attraction is being inadvertently used to create more bad news.

So to try and create something positive to focus on, I showed a screenshot of my Clickbank account for the week.

I didn’t have a lot of time and ideas for a blog post this week so I thought “why not post it on my blog too”. So here it is…

I started promoting products on Clickbank less than two years ago. I was inspired to do so by Bob Proctor who told me that if you want to earn your annual income as your monthly income, you need to create “Multiple Sources of Income” or “MSIs” as he calls it.

Bob Proctor’s advice is gold. If you’ve not done so, go visit http://6minutesforsuccess.com to get into the “mindset” for success.

How to Pitch to a Venture Capitalist for Money

I was very fortunate, when I was in my twenties, to be a part of a team that raised over $5 million in VC funding for our technology company. This experience allowed me to believe in that moment that anything in business is possible and within my means. It was one of my first great mindset breakthroughs that made all the difference for me as an entrepreneur.

Do you need a massive breakthrough in your business? I think you will find this video helpful.

Twitter - How To Auto-Reply And Auto Follow

Firstly, for Non-Twitter Users:

I resisted it at first but now I find that I am a raving fan of Twitter. If you are not using Twitter yet, take my advice and just do it. Even if you don’t plan to Twitter much yet, just register to make sure you grab a user name that’s close to yours. You’ll thank me later for this piece of advice. So go ahead, create a Twitter account for free and “follow” a few active Twitter users to appreciate what it does.

Now for Twitter Users:

Have you ever noticed how when you “follow” certain Twitter users, you will get an immediate reply saying something like “Thanks for following me”. And also, you may find that these users also seem to immediately respond by “following” you too. Do you want to know how to do it too?

Chances are, these user are using a free service from http://www.tweetlater.com

This service allows you to do 3 things:

  1. Automatically respond to your followers with a personal message
  2. Automatically “follow” your “followers”
  3. Submit a Twitter message to be published at a later time

Twit Later

You can also manage multiple Twitter accounts from this site. For example if you have a Twitter Account for yourself and one for your business.

Follow me on Twitter to see a demo of how it works. You’ll get a reciprocal follow from me. :)

Google Website Optimizer - A/B Testing

I’ve just started using Google’s Website Optimizer tool and I’m wondering why I never used it sooner. I guess I thought it was just too difficult to set up but it ended up being so easy. You just add a few pieces of code to each of your landing pages and your conversion page and Google takes care of the rest!

A/B testing is just so important for an affiliate marketer. I must admit, I sometimes run my business based on my gut feel of what the market wants and that is absolutely WRONG.

With Google Optimizer, I now let the market tell me what they like. For example, I’ve set up two landing pages to see which one has better conversion for sales for my PPC campaigns.
I just leave the test to run until the data tells me that one of the landing pages is significantly beating the other. (see screenshot below)

A/B Testing

After that, I would toss out the loser and then create a new landing page and run a test again to try and “beat the control” as they say.

You can even test multiple items on your page at once such as the headline, images and call to action. If you are not using A/B testing on your sites yet, give Google Website Optimizer a try.

YouTube Embed Code Options - Autoplay On or Off

Here are some problems I face when embedding YouTube videos on my website.

First, the user has to click on the “play” button for the video to play. People who are new to online video might not even know to how to do that.

Second, at the end of the video, the “related videos” pop up taking your visitor to other sites. In other words, off your site!

Related-Videos

So have you ever wanted your embedded YouTube video to automatically play (autoplay) when your page loads? How about turning off the “related video” feature at the end the video?

You’ve come to the right place. After much experimenting, here are all the YouTube embed code variations to get your video just the way you want it. Just replace the video URL with the video you want to embed:
