Whether you're just starting out in your quest to build a home based business on the Internet or have been doing this for a while, there are some terms that you either will be hearing or have been hearing on a regular basis. Opt-in or lead capture pages, auto responders, splash pages and landing pages. These are terms that started popping up after I had been trying to build my business for a while and I had no idea what they were talking about, so I set out to learn. It was at that point that I found out that the "guru's" who were letting the world know that we needed these things had websites and when you clicked on them, you had to sift through about 20 pages of written content with about 7 or 8 videos that they wanted you to go through to finally get to the pitch where they asked you for anywhere from $497 to $997 and they would teach you how to set up your system and earn money with your current home business. The thing about that though...I found out they would teach me how to market my business AFTER I got everything set up to bring in more money for them (which of course they would pay me a nominal fee to help them get rich.)
I joined several of these for their trial periods, just long enough for me to realize that every time I tried to set up one of these systems to work for me, it was like learning how to market another online opportunity, which I didn't want to do as I was still trying to figure out and learn how to market the one I had. Even more frustrating was the fact that each time I tried to follow their instructions on one of the videos, either the video froze or the 30 minute video only played for 10 minutes before starting itself all over again. Finally I had enough and just determined in my heart that I could build my business without all of these things.
Well, if the truth be told, we can do this without all of these things, but it's definitely a whole lot better for us if we learn about them and incorporate them into what we are doing, and this gives those of us who are baby boomers a huge learning curve.
There are now companies that take the guess work out of getting these things up and running for your business. Some have everything in place and all we do is go to the pages, put in our information, hit a button and viola, it's a done deal, totally eliminating the learning curve that I struggled with for years.
Not only will they have landing pages, lead capture pages, and autoresponders, but will also give you the ability to have a video spokesperson inviting the visitor on your website and encouraging your prospects to find out more about your company and opportunity which can significantly increase responsiveness, time on your site, and most importantly new sign ups! This will give you the ability to use these tools to help take your business to the NEXT LEVEL!
Giving you the leverage you need to help your business grow does not have to cost an arm and a leg.
Here's to your success!
