Melanie Benson Strick Shares Secrets To Building Your Virtual Team

Hi

A few hours ago I had the privilege of interviewing Melanie benson Strick – also known as “The Million Dollar Lifestyle and Business Coach”. Melanie’s clients enjoy an average growth rate of 172% within their first year while creating more time for living their dream lifestyle. With that kind of track record you can imagine she had some pretty powerful lessons to share. We covered a lot of ground, as you can imagine, so I do recommend you log into the gold member’s area and download the recording. Of course you can always read the cheat sheet, action plans and transcript in a week when they are ready.

But for now, let me share with you some great ideas you can implement right now and a great resource Melanie has produced. I always ask our speakers to offer something special for you that you can’t get elsewhere and Melanie has made a very generous offer that she has not made before – and I am very grateful for her generosity. You can read Melanie’s offer here, or just read on for handy tips.

Finding Your Hidden Gold

OK. You’ve made the decision that you are going to be successful and you are going to grow your business. What do you outsource first? The answer is not as clear cut as you think as it is different for every person. Melanie shared a tool that she uses with her clients to determine which tasks get outsourced, and which ones you keep. She calls it “Finding Your Gold” and I love its simplicity. I also really like how it acknowledges the importance of passion and energy in growing your business. Here are the steps:

Step 1 On a sheet of paper, rule a few lines from the top to the bottom

Step 2 In one column, list every activity that you currently do in your business.

Step 3 next to each task, place a symbol based on the following “code”

Place a heart next to tasks that energise you, you absolutely love doing, and make you money!

Place a diamond next to tasks that you can do really well but they don’t excite you

Place a sad face next to tasks that you absolutely hate and that take your energy away.

Step 4 Tasks with a sad face get out-sourced first, then tasks with the diamond. Even though you can do something really well, if it saps your enthusiasm, eventually your entire business will suffer. Melanie gave a great example of a client who doubled her income within a few short months as soon as she outsourced the sad face and diamond tasks

My challenge to you

I really encourage you to do this activity. I know that as soon as I outsourced tasks that took up a lot of my time my business snow-balled. In fact, after today’s call I did a quick mental “Hidden Gold Hunt” and identified 2 more areas that use my energy and time that I will now out-source. Look out for job opportunities over the next 2 weeks!

My challenge to you is to do this activity and share your thoughts with the rest of our community in the forum at http://www.wonderfulwebforum.com . You can leave your comments here in the blog as well (make sure you include your url so you get some great back-links). We also have some excellent virtual assistants and other contractors as part of our community so you may well find your team over at the forum.

Other Great Ideas

Of course this activity is only a small part of what was shared on the call today. Melanie also covered in detail 3 things that you need to stop doing if you ever hope to create a 7 figure business (or even a 5 or 6 figure business).

She also covered how to outsource when you first start out and have no money and shared the specific software and web sites she uses to coordinate her team and protect her privacy and assets. All this and more is available in the recordings and transcripts in the gold member area of Wonderful Web Women.

I recommend you check out Melanie’s offer, it is only available for 48 hours. It is a physical product with great resources, work sheets and action plans. You know how much I love action plans!

Cheers, and I’ll see you in the forum

Videos To Help You Market “The Law of Attraction in Action”

Last week we launched our very first collaborative publication “The Law of Attraction in Action”. This book has been published to help you build a list from scratch and increase your relationship with existing customers and leads.

The book has already been downloaded hundreds of times and I have seen that many of our members have already added the book to their web sites, blogs and newsletters and are using it already to build a list. Congratulations for taking action!

Today I announce more tools to help you:

1. Version 2 available: We have added an appendix and a few extra offers provided by our authors. Version 1 is till great but version 2 is better.

1. Jo Kefford from www.movingvideos.com has created an excellent video for you to use to market the book. I have added it to the sales page in the resellers package so if you log into the members area and download the resellers package agin, you will get the sales letter with the video already embedded. Here is a copy below. Later this week Jo will let us know of a special offer she has for our members so you can brand the video with your own affiliate links and your web site. This will also include virally marketing the video for you. Great opportunity to drive traffic to your site!

Here is a link to see the video as part of a video email. This is one of the services Jo can provide:

http://message2.myvideowebstream.com/view/?id=F9RXXHCUHUTIO293FIJM

3. 6 training videos. This is a special for gold members of Wonderful Web Women. Log into the members area, click on the videos link on the left and look for the training videos for the Gold Book. These videos take you step by step on how to download the reseller pacgae, import it into a web design program, edit the pages to add your photo, your details and your links, publish the web pages to your web site and how to add a contact form to collect people’s email addresses and names so you can grow your ist. There is evena video to show you how to link the pages to your home page of your website, along with a graphic I have created for you to put on your home page. I really hope this helps you develop the skills quickly to take advantage of this opportunity.

Let me know if they are helpful or if there are any other videos that would help you make the most of this opportunity.

Build a List From Scratch With The Wonderful Web Women Gold Book 2008

Today on our free webinar I covered in detail how you can use our unique publication to grow your own internet (and also off-line) business. The recording will be available for all members in the free audios section (under teleseminars link on the left) of the members area in a few hours. The transcripts, cheat sheets and action plan will also be there in a week or so. Here are just a few of the ideas we covered:

If you have no web site, no list and don’t expect to get a web site for a while

1. At a networking event offer to send a link to a free gift valued at $47  that will help them create success (plus you will keep them advised of any other great ideas) in return for their business card. You now have permission to add them to your mailing list.
2. The file is a bit big to email as an attachment. Instead send them to to join the Wonderful Web Ideas list or to go straight to the download page.
3. Send the link to the book in an email to all your business associates (as well as your affiliate link for Wonderful Web Women). This will help position you as a person with great ideas and resources so when you are ready to build your mailing list they will want to join.

If you want to build a list from scratch and have a web site (or will soon)

1. Download the resellers package for the book in the members area (see how to here)
2. Edit the web pages I have created for you to personalise them (or copy and paste into your existing site)
3. Sign up for an aweber account and add the sign up box to the web page provided
4. Let everyone you know about your gift and send them to the opt in page so they can claim their gift
5. Start creating a relationship with people who join by emailing them with discussion on the book and the parts you really liked.

If you already have a list and want to strengthen your relationship

1. Download the resellers package
2. You will only need the download page I have created for you as people have already opted in to your list
3. Edit the download page to personalise it and add your affiliate link for Wonderful Web Women
4. Email your list and tell them of your gift. Link straight to the download page
5. If you don’t want to go to the hassle of uploading the web page, simply link straight to http://www.wonderfulwebwomen.com/recommends/goldbookdownload or

   http://www.wonderfulwebwomen.com/recommends/goldbookgift

6. Discuss the book and how it applies to your niche (it is about the individual so it applies to every person). This will strengthen your relationship with your list.

How to Make Money with the book

1. Sign up for the Wonderful Web Women affiliate program and get your unique link (log in to the members area and click on affiliates at the top. I have also created a free affiliate handbook for you to help you)
2. Add the affiliate link to the download page for the book and in any emails you send out about the book
3. We will pay you 30% every month for every new gold member you send us (I LOVE paying affiliates)
4. Add the book as a bonus to a product you are selling
5. Add a link to the book and your affiliate link to the download page of any other product you may be selling.

How to use the book for off-line marketing

1. Print the book and sell it or give it away to potential clients or reward special clients
2. Print the book and add it as a bonus to other physical products you are selling
3. Give it as a bonus for early bird registrations for a workshop you run
4. Burn it to CD and use it in all the ways you would use the printed book
5. Burn to CD and also add a presentation on the CD about yourself and what you offer
6. When you advertise in magazines or newspapers, offer the book as a gift (printed, CD or link to your web site to subscribe)

Need help?

These are just a few ideas to get you started. I am in the process of creating coaching videos for you to show you how to download the resellers package, edit the web pages, get your aweber account and add the book to your site. These will be available for gold and VIP members over the next couple of days.

You can get more marketing  ideas here:

Jo Kefford is creating a professional promotional video for you to use to promote the book.

You can get lots of ideas  on using the video here:

To join the discussion in the forum and get help when you need it, simply click on the “register” link at the top of the forum page at http://www.wonderfulwebforum.com . You need to register as this web site is separate to Wonderful Web Women.

I can’t wait to hear of your ideas and successes. Please share them on the forum and the blog.

Proven Tools to Manifest Change in 2008

Hi

I have a gift for you today that I am really excited about. The reason I am excited is because it is a tool that will help you implement everything I have been talking about in the last few weeks.

In a hurry? Here’s your gift

http://www.wonderfulwebwomen.com/recommends/manifestor

Last week I shared with you an exercise to celebrate your achievements for 2007 and to prepare yourself mentally for 2008. This week I share with you an exercise to help you set goals for 2008 and push yourself out of your comfort zone. Next week we launch our first collaborative book called “The Law Of Attraction In Action – over 100 action steps to attract success in 2008″.

You see, everything has focused on giving you the tools to create success and prepare for a great year. But there was one thing missing that I wanted to give you but I do not have the expertise to provide it. So, the Law of Attraction in action? This week the opportunity came for me to gift you that next step!

Applying The Law of Attraction

If you’ve seen the movie “The Secret” or “What the Bleep” you will be familiar with the concept of The Law of Attraction. Basically it comes down to “what you focus on you attract into your life”. It sounds easy but the real challenge comes in staying focused on the thing you want and not letting doubt and old mental programs sabbotage your efforts.

Deliberately attracting the things you want (opportunities, money, relationships etc) is referred to as “manifesting” and is not as easy as it seems. When you are in “the zone” you know it. Everything just seems to happen to move you toward your goals. In fact, it can feel as if you are surfing a tidal wave and the energy around you is gliding you straight to shore. You just have to stay standing and the wave does it all for you (you may sense that I am a bit obsessed with surfing this summer).  Getting in “the zone” can happen by accident but it can also be manifested, or reached deliberately.

Manifesting Tools That Really Work

This week I was contacted by Heather Vale (you may remember her excellent interview a few months back). Heather and her partner Barry interview experts around the world on applying the secret. They have recently discovered 2 people who have worked closely with individuals for more than a decade to give them the tools to attract success. They are the real deal, quite achievers. Heather has invited me to review a program of tools this couple have developed over years. I’m only part way through and I am so impressed. Not “what you need to do” but “How to do it” and the actual tools to help you.

A Gift For You

It won’t be released for another 2 weeks (and you get the first opportunity because you are a Wonderful Web Woman) but today she has given me the opportunty to gift you part of the program. It is only available for a short time and I highly recommend it as a quality and ethical product.

Let me know what you think? Let’s discuss this over at the forum at http://www.wonderfulwebforum.com

Cheers

Janet
