Snooze You Lose

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Ever hear that phrase? “Snooze you lose” Well yesterday was just such a day.

If you didn’t re-act quickly you missed out on one of the biggest traffic exchange launches to come along in a while. BootScootinTraffic was launched and exceeded my expectations. Within an hour or so of sending out the email they were launching and giving $5 to join, it was over, only 2 hours after the launch.

Hence the phrase, snooze you lose. Eight or nine hours after launch, member #1,000 joined.

Now they are offering $1 per referral if upgraded or 50 cents to free members, but that won’t last long either. That offer is until they reach 1500 members and its close already, over 1400. With a Texas theme and a name like BootScootinTraffic, nothing less expected. :)

Now if you’re not familiar with Texas lingo, you may not know the term boot scootin? Let’s just say its related to dancing in cowboy boots and swiftly scootin around the floor. :)

By the way, there is a referral contest and grand prize is a pair of Cowboy boots and a Stetson hat and they don’t come cheap. The real stuff here!

Aside from all that, the traffic delivery is awesome, owner Sunny Suggs is committed and you will find this Texas size traffic exchange among the leaders very soon.

I had the pleasure of seeing this one developed and the marketing plans to launch, yet it still grew quicker than I thought possible. All I can tell you is that more is planned for further growth so if you wish to be a part of it, join now and see what I’m talking about. Join Here! Don’t snooze again, or you will lose.

By the way, when you join, read over the first special offer to upgrade carefully. Some huge bonuses, one of which Soaring4Traffic has offered. Bonuses alone are worth so much more than the cost.

Now for some Soaring4Traffic updates.

Our $1 cash for referral contest ended on August 24th, resulting in 212 new members and several members racking up some decent cash in their account. Total membership as of this writing is near 8900 members.

Many thanks to those that continue to recommend and support Soaring4Traffic. Only through your support and confidence do we continue to grow. Growth is where we continue to shine with new members and results for your advertising.

We have more planned for the near future. This is a traffic exchange first and foremost, getting results for your advertising is of utmost importance. Secondly we want to provide the best platform possible to build your referrals and be rewarded for your efforts. Stay tuned!

Members suggestions are always welcome, we do listen, even if it does take some time to make things happen. Never hesitate to give us your thoughts on how we can improve YOUR Soaring4Traffic.

Oh, do you use Twitter? Well I just started using it. Quite the little program to follow people, find out what they are doing on a daily basis. You can follow me here: http://twitter.com/Ray_White

Think its about time to give away some credits, what do you think?

So here’s the plan, two ways to get some. First join BootScootin Traffic with the above link. Leave your comments or suggestions about the program here, include your Soaring4Traffic ID# and I’ll add 200 credits to your S4T account. I will also need your BST ID# to verify.

Second, if you join using the link above and make the decision to upgrade (I will know..lol), leave your comments and ID#’s below and get 500 credits added to your Soaring4Traffic account.

This offer will be valid until Wednesday night..midnight (New York Time). Don’t snooze, its only 24 hours from now!

Have a great week, keep Soaring and let me know your thoughts.

Soaring4Traffic Updates

Saturday, August 16th, 2008

New game, break the egg is breaking all kinds of records. Since its addition in the past few days over $650, 35,000 plus credits, 35,000 banner impressions and over 155,000 text links have been won by a wide range of members as of this posting. More are being won as I write this.

These numbers only for the Egg game, not to include bonus credits won on the surf bar, letter hunt game, and verification pages.

If you’ve been surfing, there is little chance of not winning. We’ve added more today and will add even more should those run out, through Sunday. More ways to win cash below.

One dollar per Referral!

We want to gear up now for the fall season by starting today at midnight EST (New York Time). We will be paying $1 for each new referral through August 24th midnight. Eight full days to earn $1 for each referral. Not a contest, everyone wins that refers new members.

Refer 10 or more, and start receiving $2 per referral. In other words, $10 for the first ten, $2 for each one after.

Standard rules apply, no paid signups allowed, new members must verify their account, and activate within 24 hours.

At the close of each day, we will manually add your earnings from the previous day.

Another new splash page has been added that highlights the Soaring4Traffic surf console advantages as a way to manage your traffic exchange surfing plus it is an awesome downline builder. Much more effective than I first realized.

Check out all eight splash pages, plus the 2 personalized splash pages, to see which you prefer. Of course not only splash pages for use in other exchanges, but banners, text ads, solo ads, peelaway ads, and other promotional material found on your promote link. We’ve also found the main page very effective also.

By the way, in case you missed our last email, we added 2 more traffic exchanges to our list, Promo Lotto and Traffic Dynamite. Login, add your ID’s right away if you haven’t already. Of course this automatically adds it to your surf console.

If you’re not a member signup under your S4T sponsor by using the link provided. Both have proven to be very effective.

Don’t forget there are others ways of advertising your Soaring4Traffic links. Writing articles, blog posts, emailing your list of subscribers, safelists, text ad exchanges, etc…

One unique way we have created if you are an SFI member, one of the largest and oldest affiliate sites online, or wish to join is our Private Success Team system. This simple downline builder script promotes SFI and Soaring4Traffic at the same time. Once setup, even the peelaway ad promotes your S4T link.

Speaking of building your list, James Grandstaff’s new program Instant MLM Squeeze Pages adds new subscribers to my list on a daily basis.

Solomon Huey’s new text ad exchange, combination safelist, combined with banners and links has been performing well also. Might want to check it out.

There really are so many ways to advertise and earn some referral cash. Be creative and use your own ideas, just don’t spam anyone.

So in summary, surf Soaring4Traffic often to win more prizes, grab your promotional material to win referral cash. Cash for referrals can be won from August 17th through August 24th.

Wish you much success with your advertising, no limit on the amount of cash you can win!

That’s all for today, Soar with Eagles!

Edited: Almost forgot, if you didn’t know already, Rain Forest Clicks is smack dab in the middle of a re-launch. New owners, new design, and lots of new ideas. Plus a referral contest going on!

What is a Squeeze Page?

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

Recently, James Grandstaff revealed something that I found quite interesting and frankly it fits in very well with our continued suggestions concerning list building.

If you’ve been around the IM (internet marketing) scene for awhile, you’ve most likely heard the term “squeeze page” before, right? Also commonly referred to as a “lead capture page.” At least that’s what I thought. :)

Well, James surveyed approx. 500 people on his list who are interested in making money online. Many stated they were interested in affiliate marketing, product creation, MLM, etc…

One of the questions was “Do you know what a “Squeeze Page” is?”

68.05% answered yes and 31.95% answered NO.

To be honest… I was shocked that 31.95% said no, which tells me we are not doing enough in our training to educate more people of the value in first using a squeeze page, but more shocked they didn’t know what it was?

Guess more shocking especially among us traffic exchange users is that we continually stress squeeze pages/lead capture pages to build your lists as one if not the most valuable uses for your traffic exchange credits.

What about you?

In light of this shocking survey data I decided to write this post today to go over the very basics of what a squeeze page is and why you should be using them in your business (if you are not already.)

And for those of you who already use them, pay attention. You will probably learn something too. Make better use of your traffic exchange credits and get much better results from you overall advertising.
Here goes…

A squeeze page which is also known as a “lead capture page” or “name squeeze page” is a simple web page with one purpose; to get your visitor to give you their name and email address so you can follow-up with them. That’s it.

One of the best ways to get someone to opt-in to your squeeze page is by offering something of high perceived value such as a mini ecourse or a highly targeted eBook.

For example, let’s say you are promoting a multi-level marketing business opportunity. The products are great and you are a raving fan.

Most people would just start promoting the website the company supplies. I say no. This is a perfect opportunity to implement the use of a squeeze page and offer something of value first.

That way, you collect the leads, you follow-up with an introduction of yourself and begin building a long lasting business relationship.

In sales, what we are really selling is “us” first, then the product.

You always want to provide value first. Once your prospects warm up to you, then it’s time to ask the right questions to determine if your product or business opportunity can help solve their needs.

If you’d like to see a high quality, high converting squeeze page that James has put together, you can visit the link below.

It’s important to read the “thank you” page on the other side, use the ideas and see how the whole process works.

Clicking the above link, entering your info, will get you more than just the free copy of “Discover How To Get Rich In Any MLM Program.”

You will find more bonus downloads and be privy to my follow up email series which you can copy for your own use later. All of this done through James’s system, which you can easily do as well. :)

So, now do you know what a “squeeze page” is or did you know already? Do you also see the value of using a squeeze page? Do you fully understand how to set one up properly?

If you answered no to any of those questions, I highly suggest you check out James’s new system and training. One of the greatest things about any of James’s programs, and I still use the original, is the training video’s. They are so thorough, detailed to the point anyone can understand how to set up and use them.

In this latest program he has out done himself. Even if you don’t promote Instant MLM Squeeze Pages, the instructional videos, training, traffic resources, and other ideas are so valuable.

Personally don’t know why you wouldn’t promote it, since it offers so much you could pass on to others, but that would be your choice. This one is a complete package with so many options.

Please check this out for yourself, take James up on his special trial offer, pay attention to the entire process, watch the training videos to see what I’m trying to tell you with text only. He does a much better job with his video’s. Here’s the link: IMSP

As always, let me know what you think.
