Creating an “Ideal Client “ProfileCreating a profile of what we consider to be an ideal client is a very interesting exercise, and can provide great insight as to what direction we should be taking in business

This process will help us become choosier about the prospects and clients we wish to deal with, as our business grows.

An ideal client comprises:

• A client who wants our services• A client who can pay for those services• A client who will work well with us.

A Client who actually want our servicesFirst, we want clients who actually want our services. Therefore we can refine the question to apply to people or organizations that actually need our services

You may want to refine this even more by focusing on those small-to medium-sized businesses within our geographic area such Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

A Client who can pay for those servicesIt’s fantastic to have a long list of prospects; however, if they can’t pay, then that list is worthless. You’ll need to qualify prospects, and ensure they can actually afford our services or product—and we have to do this early on.

A Client who will work well with usIt’s a harder expectation to define—clients who will work well with you. If you have a feeling that a prospect is going to be more trouble than they’re worth, consider strategies to avoid that project

Two Places to Drive TrafficOur goal is to create a network of traffic that’s pointed at one of these destinations

1. Blogsite

2. Lead Magnet Site

Blog TrafficBlog traffic is all about being awesome! Visitors checking out our blog for the first time don’t know much about us. Perhaps they came because of something they saw on Twitter or Facebook. What we must FIRST do is convince them that we are providing awesome contents on a regular basis. Over a period of time, a steady diet of quality posts will turn a casual reader into a loyal email subscriber.

Lead Magnet TrafficOther types of traffic work best with a lead magnet. These are the people who’ve already “consumed our content” on another site and then go to a lead magnet site because we are offering something for free. Basically these visitors are already “presold” on the value we provide. So instead of potentially losing a visitor on our blog, we’ll direct them to a lead magnet page to get their contact information.

Blog Traffic Sources A blog is about giving great content and being social. Our job is to create content on a number of brand channels (YouTube, Facebook, guest posting, etc.) and network with people who share similar interests. These two activities will get a lot of people to visit our blog.

The following ways we are going to adopt for promoting our blog:-

Using Twitter for Content MarketingAs with a blog, Twitter is about being helpful and interesting to the people who follow

you. Provide links to the best content you’ve created.

In addition to sending traffic to a blog, use Twitter to direct people to additional content

channels on places like Facebook, YouTube and sites where we’ve guest posted


http://thesws.co/

Creating Facebook Landing PagesLike Twitter, Facebook is about interacting with people in our niche. The only marketing we should do on this site is to link to content we’ve created. Otherwise, use Facebook as a way to network and get to know people.

One of the cool features that Facebook offers is a Landing Page. This is a special page that’s shown to anyone who isn’t a fan of you. You can customize the look of the landing page and create something that really gets noticed. You want to make sure your landing page is interesting enough that people will choose to “like” you.

Here are four excellent landing pages examples:Chris Guillebeau’s Art of Non-Conformity (AONC): This page gives a little background on Chris. Plus it has a right hand column where you can join his email list, follow him on

Twitter, buy his products and check out his blog. HIs FB landing page is designed to

give a broad introduction into the “AONC Brand.”

Gary Vaynerchuck: Gary V has an interesting landing page that is literally a map of his life. It’s an interactive cartoon; complete with images of Gary and some of his major accomplishments. Then when you click over a specific area of the map, it links to the

place where you can access this piece of content.

Ryan Deiss: Ryan is another person who uses a giant image. Here he offers a 90% off coupon on a product if you “like” his Fan Page. This is a great example of using an

offer to get more fans.

Tim Ferris: Tim’s FB landing page is another free offer. Here he gives away a free chapter of his new book as a way to entice followers.

But, here’s the process for creating your own Landing Page:

#1 – Creating a Lead Magnet

#2 – Sign up with North Social. This site offers a number of Facebook applications. Specifically they manage the process where fans can download and share your freebie offer. Plus they have a few tools such as Deal Share, Sweepstakes, First Impression, Fan Offers, Sign Ups, Show & Sell and more that help your page go viral.

#3 – Landing Page Design. Designing a landing page that offered our Lead Magnet while also making sure the Share button was part of the overall design. That way if someone likes our offer, he or she can easily link to it on their wall


1. Creating required facebook landing pages

2. Associating Lead Magnets with the landing pages for increasing fans

3. Promoting the Facebook landing pages

4. Researching and developing other facebook marketing strategies

Getting REAL Results with YouTubeAccording to Internet Marketing experts, 2011 is a going to be the year of video marketing! With YouTube, you can create an avalanche of traffic by creating small videos that solve micro-problems in your niche.

This traffic method differs from others because you’ll be promoting both your blog AND our lead magnet page. YouTube is an excellent way to give quality content while reselling your free report. But you also want people to know about your blog.

So we have to promote both Blogsite & Lead Magnet site in our videos.

Creating YouTube Videos & Mini Commercials

Our YouTube strategy involves creating LOTS of content within our niche. Finding small problems that people have and create a video for each one. Within each clip, we have to make sure to include a “mini-commercial” that advertises our free report or any other offers

The way you get traffic from videos is to have a mini-commercial embedded in your videos. These are slides that are briefly shown in the clip that advertise a free report.

Guest Posting Guest posting is one of the best ways to increase traffic to your blogThis traffic method is an excellent way to find a new audience. Every blog has its own core group of readers. Create great content with a guest post and you’ll get a lot of new visitors checking out your blog for the first time.


1. To make sure that the blog is ready for new visitors

2. Finding blogs for guest posting

3. Contacting A-List bloggers

Blog Comments Commenting on other people’s blogs is another way to hijack an audience. This is especially true if you’re leaving thought-provoking remarks that get people’s attentions.

Proper blog commenting is a lot more than going to your favorite five blogs and leaving

daily comments


1. Finding interesting blog posts for commenting.

2. 20 solid comments each day

3. Focusing on Comment Types : Funny, The Argument/Debate , Furthering the Conversation , Answering a Question , Input your opinion , Ask questions , what comments need to be, Giving respect to website owner/administrator , Saying something constructive etc

Search Engine Optimization

Create enough content and people will find you through the search engines. The trick is to “hook” a visitor and get them coming back for more. My advice is to create an enticing lead magnet and provide multiple sections on your blog for people to subscribe to an email list.


1. Keyword Research

2. SEO friendly Blog designs

3. Each blogpost On Page SEO

4. Each blogpost SEO copywriting

5. Link Building Campaign

Social BookmarksSites like Stumble Upon, Digg, and Delicious are another place to advertise your content. These sites are a big popularity contest. The more people that “vote” for your stuff, the more visitors you get. Once again this comes down to creating great content and networking with like-minded bloggers.


1. Submitting our content in the social bookmaking sites

2. Adding social bookmarking button in each of our blog posts

3. Networking with like minded bloggers

4. Appealing readers to bookmark,vote and share the contents

5. Researching and finding niche in social bookmarking

Lead Magnet Traffic Sources Another place to drive traffic is a lead magnet site. It is highly recommended that you heavily promote this web destination. In fact, we have to put much more effort in marketing this site than you do with a blog. Because it’s much easier to build a list when you offer people two basic choices –Subscribe or don’t subscribe.

With a lead magnet site you leverage techniques like article marketing and PPC to get LOTS of people to subscribe.

Marketing through Google AdwordsGoogle Adwords is a Google Service of Sponsored Ads.

Create Simple, Effective Ads & Display them on

1. Google Properties2. Search Partners3. Content Publishers who are using Google Ad sense

Pay Per Click (PPC) PPC is the 800 pound gorilla of all the ways to drive traffic to a lead magnet site. The goal here is to target niche related keyword phrases and send this browsers directly to our Lead Magnet Site

PPC or Pay Per Click is the name given to the online search marketing pricing structure, where advertiser pays the publishing site/engines such as Google Adwords,MSN Adcenter & Yahoo Search Marketing etc each time a prospect clicks on his ad.

In other words, the cost of the campaign is based on the number of times a prospect clicked on your website. Such advertisements usually appear on the search results pages as Sponsored Links or Listings. Since the advertiser pays for each click that takes the visitor to his site, PPC is also called CPC or Cost per Click.

Affiliate Programs or CPA (Cost Per Action)

Commission based marketing ie giving commission to people or websites referring visitors/sales.

The idea here is to create a lead magnet ie the Offer that promotes premium information product/eBook. Affiliates drive traffic to this lead magnet because they want to make money. In turn, you drive traffic back to a blog by offering quality content that persuades list subscribers to make a product purchase.

1. Creating banner ads for our lead magnets

2. Joining banner advertising network AdBrite.com and uploading our lead magnet banners for promoting our offers

3. Test and Track Your Affiliate Marketing System

4. Promoting our lead magnet banner ads

SEO

Doing SEO for the Lead Magnets are also very much essential. That’s because it’s important to use a lead magnet site as a web property that’s independent from your blog. So you’ll want to create backlinks and target high traffic keywords in your niche

Understanding the Big PictureIt is important to understand the “big picture” of how all this web traffic relates to one another. A lead magnet site is an excellent way to build a list while also recycling traffic back to your blog.

Please refer to the four crucial boxes on this diagram:

1. Your blog (red box)2. Lead Magnet (red box)3. Email Sequence (black box)4. Offer (green box)

Your Blog (Read Box)


http://thesws.co/


Tel: (+91) 801-820-2486 , 0671-249-5350

www.thesws.co


In the above diagram you might noticed that most of the traffic is directed to the blog.That’s because this site is the primary hub of all your online promotions.

Also in the diagram you will see that the blog sends traffic to two places ie lead magnet & the Offer .This is because our primary goal is list building which as that’s the THE best way to reach your potential clients on the Internet.

So it is highly recommend that most of our blogging efforts should be directing toward getting people to subscribe.

Furthermore, you’ll also want to send traffic to Affiliate Offers, Your Own Products or Daily Coupons.

Lead Magnet (Read Box)Again take a look at the diagram. You will see that there’s a lot of traffic coming in to the Lead Magnet. But the only place you send people is to the email sequence.

Either they join your list or they go away.

With a lead magnet, your only goal is to get people on your email list. That’s it!

The Email Sequence (Black Box)Your list is an asset which can not only be used for your email marketing campaign but also for creating and strengthening relationships with the quality prospects.

Email content is a lot like blogging. You talk about their problems, provide a few solutions and talk about your own experiences.

In addition, you can strengthen this relationship by directing people BACK to specific posts on your blog that provide lots of value.

Naturally, as you interact with subscribers you can recommend your products & services, affiliate offers, daily coupons etc

If your email content is providing value, people WILL check out your offers.

Offer (Green Box)The ultimate destination for your blog traffic should be The Offer. Readers should come to this site “presold” on this product. Then it’s up to the sales page to turn these warm leads into paying customers.

Asking the following questions is a great way to maximize the results you get from blog traffic.

• KNOW where you’re driving traffic. • When people click your links, understand “why” they’re doing it.• What purpose does it serve? Are you trying to make money?• Does this link provide additional content?
