Suwanee, GA (PRWeb) December 31, 2005 — A network of authors, marketers and professions came together through the Internet to raise money for Habitat For Humanity Atlanta and demonstrate the principles taught in a new book by Matt Bacak, ” The Ultimate Lead Generation Plan.”

“The lead generation plan I teach in my book has made it so I can live in a nice big house, and offer my family everything they want” said Matt Bacak, (aka “The Powerful Promoter”). “I want to share that with the world, so I wrote the book and use a the same online marketing principles to launch the book and raise money for Habitat”

Bacak assembled a team of hundreds of volunteers, each with a mailing list built using the cross promotion method he teaches in “The Ultimate Lead Generation Plan”. Together, they sent email message to some 10 million registered ” opt in” readers of mailing lists, newsletters and e-zines.

Members of the team includes Bacak, book marketing expert Warren Whitlock, and authors Mark Joyner, David Lakhani, Ted Ciuba, Mike Stewart, Jim Edwards, David Garfinkel, along with several hundred other online marketers.

Readers were given bonus gifts provided by the team when they purchased one or more copies of the book through an online retailer on December 31st (the authors 28th birthday). Sales volume was enough for the book to debut as a best seller.

Proceeds of the book launch are being donated to Habitat for Humanity Atlanta. “Building the team was easy once we made the decision to give all the money to Habitat” said Bacak. “We had a definite goal, with a definite deadline and a focused cause. We executed the plan and the outcome was a #1 best selling book and money to help those in need.”

Anyone who wants to take part in the event can purchase the book at their local bookstore, BN.com or Amazon.com. For more details, visit: http://theultimateleadgenerationplan.com.

Internet Marketing Legend Matt Bacak Bribes Over 10 Million
People to Donate to Habitat for Humanity Atlanta Chapter

All royalties from Bacak’s new book, The Ultimate Lead Generation Plan, to be donated directly to Habitat for Humanity by New York Publisher Morgan James. Bacak offers ethical “bribe” of over $52,127.00 in free products from hundreds of authors to encourage people to “donate.”

Suwanee, GA (PRWeb) December 29, 2005 — In what is undoubtedly the biggest and boldest move in internet marketing philanthropy, Matt Bacak known as “The Powerful Promoter” and owner of Frontier Marketing International Inc., has teamed up with dozens of other marketers to help him launch his book “ The Ultimate Lead Generation Plan” to their combined 10 million plus newsletter subscribers, with a twist.

“Everyone wants their book to be a success and so do I, but I’ve been so moved by the work that Habitat for Humanity has done around the country, particularly in the wake of Katrina, that I wanted to do something to help them. In order to do that, I identified one of the top challenges all businesses have that I could solve (getting leads and traffic to their website, something I do exceptionally well) and wrote a book instructing them in the solution to the problem.” Then Matt did something that is unheard of, he announced that he’d give 100% of his royalties to Habitat For Humanity.

But that wasn’t enough, he located dozens of other high profile internet marketers and asked them to donate a product or service he could give to anyone buying his new book. To his surprise more than 200 people responded and the gift package for buying the $14.95 book is now valued at more than $52,127.00 and growing daily. He also got the same marketers to agree to send an email to their subscribers telling them about the book and the donation to Habitat For Humanity. Virtually all agreed and the result is that beginning December 29, 2005, more than 10 million subscribers will be offered an opportunity to buy the book, support Habitat for Humanity and get the massive bonus package.

Some critics say that Bacak’s effort is just a marketing ploy to sell books but Bacak brushes their criticism aside. “I’ve been very fortunate to have created a very successful business using the very techniques I’m disclosing in the book and as a continuation of my success I want to give something back. I’ve been profoundly impacted by the work that has to be done in this country to repair the devastation that rained down on us last year. People can think what they will, but the full royalty payments will still go to Habitat,” said Bacak.

Bacak continued, “What really amazed me is the generosity of other marketers who wanted to do all they could to encourage others to buy the book in order to help with the effort to raise money for Habitat. One of the bonus products that is being given away for buying the book has sold for as much as $997.00 in the past six months, none of these marketers are going to give up profitable products that they sell as part of a “PR stunt.”

Anyone who wants to take part in the event can purchase the book at their local bookstore, BN.com or Amazon.com. For more details, visit http://theultimateleadgenerationplan.com.

9 Common Characteristics of Terrible Marketers

Common Characteristic #1 – Terrible marketers are too scared to mail to their lists. Remember there are great marketers and there are terrible ones that are afraid to try things; such as, send out an email to their list.

Common Characteristic #2 – Terrible marketers focus on what people need. Great marketers focus on what people want.

Common Characteristic #3 – Terrible marketers focus on the process, not the reward. Focus on the results you will receive if you make things happen. When you focus on the reward it’s a lot easier.

Common Characteristic #4 – Terrible marketers focus on their products and services that they personally want to take to the market. NO! NO! NO! Focus on what your market wants. Nobody cares about you they care about themselves.

Common Characteristic #5 – Terrible marketers believe that they can do it on their own. Smart marketers find a mastermind and have a mentor that accelerates their growth. (A lot faster than on their own).

Common Characteristic #6 – Terrible marketers think fame equals fortune. Not true, fame doesn’t equal fortune. You take the fame and I’ll take the fortune.

Common Characteristic #7 – Terrible marketers believe if everyone’s doing it you should not. First thing, don’t you think those doing the marketing have a reason, such as research and the knowledge that there is money in it? Second thing, Smart marketers understand that You don’t go to the bank for originality.

Common Characteristic #8 – Terrible marketers don’t know how to spell positioning. They don’t even know what it means. If you really, really want to become an outstanding marketer then you only need to know one word:P-O-S-I-T-I-O-N-I-N-G

Common Characteristic #9 – Terrible marketers make the unfortunate mistake of listening to the wrong people and never listening to their gut. Rock Star marketers follow their gut.

Remember to use your intuition and aim for the stars!

Internet Marketing Tips By Matt Bacak

One Great Way To Generate A Lot Of
Cold Hard Cash From Your Opt- In Email List

I bet you want to know what that one great way is! Right?!

Well, I have found that one of the fastest ways to make a lot of money from your opt-in email list is by giving teleseminars. Many people do teleseminars but just to deliver information. (FYI: Teleseminars, telecalls, and teleclinics are all the same thing; the only difference is the name.)

What I’m talking about is doing teleseminars and selling high ticket items. You see, I view teleseminars as just another media to sell your stuff and other peoples stuff. Just like a regular seminar. Because if you don’t, it’s a disservice to your listeners.

Here is step-by-step exactly how I put on my teleseminars and get 50% or more of the people that pre-registered to join the call. Pretty good compared to the average which is 1/3rd. Follow the steps that I’ve laid out for you and you can get a lot of people on your teleseminar and make tons of money.

These steps have brought in over 250k for me in less than 3 months.

First step, get good at selling your stuff to large groups or find someone that is a great closer and can sell a lot of their own stuff on the phone. If you do look for someone else, you want to find someone that has a high closing ratio on teleseminars. If you want to make more money, sell a higher ticket price.

Second step, create a landing page where people can register for the call and fill-out information. You want to make sure that you ask for their first name, email address and phone number on this page. The best way to capture their information is by using an autoresponder which allows you to automatically send them the pin code, phone number and other call details.

After you have the registration page up and your autoresponder is ready, start crafting your email. You want to make sure that this email only has one outcome and that is for the reader to Sign-up for your telecall.

Send the email out to your list or find other people who will send it to their lists.

People will get your email and sign-up for the telecall giving you their first name, email address and phone number. I have found that you want to send it at least two times to make sure that you get more people signed-up. Remember what’s happening as they sign up, they will automatically get an email from your autoresponder.

The average person that puts on teleseminars will get about 1/3 of the people that registered to the call that night because people forget about it, get diverted, sign-up for another call, or who knows but something may happen and they wont get on the call. Now let’s fix that!

I don’t like being average, I want better than average results and I get them! Here’s how:

30 minutes before the call email the group in your autoresponder that registered for the call and let them know that the call will start in less than 30 minutes along with the PIN code and Phone number again. Also, remember I said to ask for their phone number, well there’s a reason for that… you want to send out a voice broadcast and tell them over the phone that the call starts very soon. If you do this, you won’t find average results, 1/3, you’ll see 50% of the people on the call.

If you have a good sales presentation or a good closer on the call, more people on the call means more money for you. Go out and make it happen. Go try it. Test it out and see the money roll in.

How to Get Targeted Search Engine Traffic Quickly

Here’s the “How-To-Do-It Guide” for driving search engine traffic right to your website.

I only speak about methods I have used and that worked well for my business. There are a lot of people out there who will steer you in the wrong direction because they are just regurgitating old information that might have worked years ago. I’ll help you discover what’s happening right here, right now. Let’s get started with the plan.

Your first step is to define your target market. The better you are able to define your niche, the better your future clients will be able to find you and your products or services.

Next, you want to get very specific about what you’re going to market on your webpage and make sure that it’s congruent with our next step. When a person finds you on a search engine, you have a window of only 3 to 5 seconds to convince them that you are exactly what they were looking for. Make it crystal clear what you offer. If your meaning is unclear, the prospect will jump to the next site and you’ll lose that business.

The following step is to brainstorm your keywords – keeping in mind your target audience. How would they search for me? What would they look for? Don’t focus on how you identify yourself. The closer you are to your target audience, the more hits you will get, which equates to more customer traffic. The more specifically you target, the better off you are. You’re not going to have success if you list yourself too generically, there is too much competition and you’ll be lost in the crowd.

Once you have established your target market, define what specific categories you should be linking to and add them as part of your navigation page. A linking strategy is very important for building your link reputation. Links to your page will count towards link reputation and link popularity.

There are a lot of different search engines – six in particular that give you about 90% of all web-traffic. Of those Google has the most web traffic so we’ll focus on it. Google has a link page rank feature which rates the importance of your page. You’ll want to download their toolbar http://toolbar.google.com. This will allow you to view the ranking of every site you visit and how important it is in the almighty eye of Google. This is a key ingredient in determining linking strategy. Google ranks itself as a 10 on their scale of 0 to 10 (the higher the ranking, the more important a page). This is determined essentially by who is endorsing and linking to you.

You must map out how you’re going to get Google give to you a high page rank. For Google, the most important attribute is the title tag. You want to make sure you use your most targeted key word in the beginning of your title tag. Google will typically list the first 83 characters so the title is where you put your most valued key word(s) so it can be easily accessed.

The next maneuver is to focus on your link relevancy. Link relevancy is how well the text on your pages relates to your title tag, also taking in consideration the content of neighboring web pages. The analysis of all of this data enables Google to return results that are relevant to user queries. You want to be sure you are listed in user queries so make your content match your title, match your links, and match your products and or services. Remaining consistent and obvious is your key to directing traffic to your site.

Finding a Niche

Choosing a carefully pinpointed niche market should be one of the first steps that an internet business owner has to take. A very common way of describing a niche market is ‘a targeted group of individuals with very specific and similar needs or interests.’ These people engage in similar activities and hence they would most probably demand the same goods or services to cater to their needs. Online businesses that drop ship their products to their customers would thrive by focusing on a specifically targeted niche market. This article also provides you with practical steps for you to select your niche market.

If you don’t find a niche market for the product or service you offer, you will have a difficult time being successful. Most newcomers who wish to do business on the Internet often market to everyone they can find with the expectation that everyone will do business with them. This is the same as throwing mud against the wall and hoping some of it will stick. They have not yet found their niche market.

What is niche marketing?
A niche market is composed of individuals and businesses that have similar interests and needs, which can be readily identified and that can be easily targeted and reached.
Finding a niche for your business means finding a great product or service for a highly targeted audience.

Here’s the process to find your niche business

1. Find a niche product or service you are passionate about. This will greatly improve your chances of being successful. Why? Because it’s the only way you’re going to be able to devote the kind of time and effort to create a meaningful web site, build up the right traffic, generate worthwhile income, and enjoy what you’re doing.

2. Choose a niche product you are knowledgeable about. Reflect on what skills, hobbies or products you know the most about. If you don’t have the knowledge yet, then choose a niche product that you would love to promote, and then spend the necessary time to research it, so you can eventually become an expert in your marketing field.

3. Define your niche market – do the necessary research to see if there is a market for your niche product. To create a profitable business for your niche product, you need to ask yourself these questions:

a) Is there sufficient demand for it? – If you choose a field that is too broad it may be hard to stand out from the competition. For example, camping equipment could be your niche product. Well, unless you are a large corporation such as Sports Authority (a large retail store in my town), you won’t stand out from the crowd. However, a more highly targeted niche product could be Coleman Camping Equipment.

b) Keyword research – use keyword tools such as the overture suggestion tool (http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion) or word tracker (wordtracker.com) to find how many people are searching each month on keywords related to your niche product.

Here’s an example:
According to overture (at the time of writing this article), the keyword phrase “camping equipment” was searched 76164 times in one month. If you do a search on Google.com for camping equipment you will find 1,610,000 web sites show up – heck, that’s too competitive.
However “Coleman camping equipment” generated 1242 searches in one month according to overture. Google.com shows 93,200 competing websites. That’s much better though still somewhat competitive.

Tip: Notice there are not many web sites (even the top ones), that have “Coleman camping equipment” in their titles. This is just one of the ways to obtain a high ranking on the search engines for your newly targeted web site. This will then provide lots of targeted traffic to your site.

c) Take a survey – you may already have products or services that you selling to your customers. If so, ask questions within your survey about what product or service would help your customers business. If it can help them save time by gaining more knowledge or automating tasks, you could have a winner.

d) Create Your Own Unique Selling Position (USP) – study your competition to find out what they emphasize about the product which makes them stand out from the crowd. Then decide on something that will make your business unique from the others. It could be something unique about the product (i.e. discount Coleman camping equipment) or you could choose a more highly defined target market (i.e. Boy Scout organizations and clubs throughout the USA that use Coleman’s camping equipment).

4. Build and promote your web site – to develop a profitable web site for your niche product you need to create a number of informative pages that will not only attract visitors from the search engines, but inform and move them to purchase from your site.
Niche marketing is the key to developing a profitable business that will make you stand out from the crowd. By doing the necessary research and building an informative web site, you will become an expert in your niche marketing field.
