In the world of Internet Marketing, it is said that ‘content is king’.
That’s only half the story, of course, because if your content is buried, it cannot be found- that is, unless there are lots of good maps back to it, through social media marketing!

Those who are at the forefront of marketing knowledge have been doing something called ‘syndication’ of their content and using social media marketing for quite some time. It’s how we appear to be everywhere at once, and also how we dominate the search results for whatever keywords we choose. Until just a few short weeks ago I achieved this syndication of my content by outsourcing my marketing – to my VA.
Effective? To a point, yes. But the results are absolutely minuscule compared to what I have found by implementing the SYNND system put together by the guys over at Social Media Science to outsource my marketing.

I am humbled at the power of what they have put into our hands. I am also well aware that those of us who implement this level of syndication by outsourcing your marketing will steamroll our competitors!
This is truly the Future of Online Marketing.

Read below an interview of the SYNND creators, Thomas Rozof & Charles Heflin, SocialMediaScience.com

**************************************************************************

In preparation for our upcoming book, Charles Heflin and I were asked the following question by the other co-author, Richard Dennis:

“Charles and Tom, what is it about content syndication that blows your mind?”

Since I’m older and cuter I went first…

OK, I know, having your “mind blown” is a rather dated colloquialism, but it still manages to get the job done, and just about everyone knows what Richard was after by his question. So here is my answer. Actually, to be honest, it’s a SUMMARY of my answer. You must read the book to get the complete picture (you knew that was coming, didn’t you?).

What blows my mind about content syndication is that it is the ultimate END GAME for all current and future successful online marketing; yet only a minuscule number of people understand its immediate and long term effects and implications. Even fewer know how to execute a successful content syndication campaign. Now stop for a second… and read this sentence again. I’ll wait…

If this statement is ANYWHERE NEAR true then you have every reason to dissect, explore, test and literally devour what I’m about to share.

Content syndication currently exists in a kind of “FUTURE SHOCK” state, to borrow Alvin Toffler’s description. He defined Future Shock as the “The premature arrival of the future.” This is exactly how I view the current state of content syndication.

It’s “premature” only in the sense that the online world is not ready for nor do they expect the outcomes and massive success that content syndication will generate, especially when it’s executed properly, as we have demonstrated and continue to perfect at SocialMediaScience.com.

It’s the “future” in that content syndication is where ALL future online marketing is heading, regardless of whether people like it or not. In the very near future EVERYONE will be forced to abide by what will seem to be a very stringent code. But it’s not stringent to those of us who have practiced these syndication protocols for years and LOVE THEM because of the results we get, time and time again.

Even the words, “Content Syndication”, both alone and together are packed with stellar meaning. Quality, relevant “Content” describes the number one motive and goal for every person engaging in an online SEARCH. The primary goal of ALL search engines therefore is to deliver this quality, relevant and easily digestible CONTENT to all its users. The search engines KNOW that this is the ultimate end GOAL.

What is mysterious and baffling here is that most online marketers also know about the role of quality content. Around the world millions engage in various kinds of SEO strategies as a costly and often unpredictable solution. They understand the “trees” but for many reasons they have yet to see the “forest.” Believe me, once you see the FOREST and you understand what this vantage point offers, you will kick yourself for not seeing it sooner. It’s as if Fort Knox has stacked its gold bullion onto the center of Times Square and day by day people walk by and see only shiny metallic images, with less than 1% of 1% ever stuffing one of those valuable gold bricks into their backpack. The FOREST and the GOLD BULLION is CONTENT SYNDICATION.

In the next few years the search engines will finally perfect their search architecture to such a degree that they can superimpose their MASSIVE CONTENT SIEVE onto every combination of words and phrases that people so glibly submit as CONTENT. Expect the Net as we know it today to undergo the most massive and complete CONTENT HOUSE CLEANING since its inception. We have already seen smaller versions of this grand WORD PURGE; but you ain’t seen nothing yet! Expect this grand daddy of them all to be on the horizon soon.

Online marketers are fond of calling this “The Google Slap.” Well, call me a seasoned sadist, because I LOVE it whenever Google slaps me (and rest of the net). “It hurts soooo good!” Why? Because when they do this I see yet ANOTHER reason why content syndication blows my mind and another reason why it SHOULD blow yours. It’s like cleaning up the streets of New York City so that the hard working, honest and law abiding citizens can walk freely and enjoy the fruits of their labors; which for us content syndication advocates means more READERS and more SALES. Whenever the net get’s SLAPPED I win, because I know how to leverage my content by syndicating it on the new and cleanly swept syndication sidewalks that Google cleared off just for me and for everyone else who VALUES true content. And just think; now we get to do this without all the hindrances and trash that used to line the content roadways of cyberspace. Do you get the picture?

Lastly, what blows my mind is the word “SYNDICATION” itself, and the various meanings it conveys. Have you ever done a study on this word? Do you know what it means to “syndicate” something? For example when applied to online content I discovered that to syndicate means all of the following:

1. To BROADCAST through multiple channels.

2. To CONTINUE to broadcast through multiple channels on a REGULAR basis.

3. To syndicate so often and so well that you DOMINATE your content niche, topic or keyword. For example, when we say things like, “Las Vegas is still run by the Syndicate,” we are implying that a “Syndicate” is a group of people who have established themselves as a powerful multichannel force, one that will not be EASILY MOVED.

4. Isn’t this EXACTLY what we want our content to accomplish…to dominate our chosen niche so that NO ONE can move us aside…ever?

Now consider this. When most people think of content they automatically think of something written, like an article, blog post, press release, etc. But as my friend, Russell Wright, reminded me recently, content means any “item” that is capable of embodying meaning and can be distributed through typical online channels. When you consider the implications of this you have to get excited. As the average online business owner begins to explore and understand the value and the mechanics of content syndication expect to see a tidal wave of new approaches to online marketing.

OK, if you have followed me this far you have either concluded that this guy is on to something historic and monumental or that he is a complete idiot mind freak toying with my lack of knowledge and worse yet, my emotions. Obviously, you must be the final judge, and I welcome that. I’m not trying to be cute or flamboyant about all this…(OK, so maybe I am a little). The point is that you owe it to yourself to find out if these predictions and forecasts are based in truth. If you discover they are then I suggest you begin now to learn how to live and succeed in the state of CONTENT SYNDICATION FUTURE SHOCK…because it has already arrived and it’s here to stay.

Now for a word from my partner Charles Heflin on this “Future Shock”…

The facet of content syndication that blows my mind is its leveraging power.

There is no other single thing in Internet marketing that you can do that holds more leverage than content syndication.

Why?

In a SINGLE move you can (single being the KEY word)…

• Initiate the viral spread of your content to many, many networks and people
• Enhance the visibility of your content in social circles from other people propagating (spreading) your content.
• Enhance the visibility of your content in the search engines through multiple references all leading to your content
• Enhance the ranking of your content in the search engines because of all the ‘Social Buzz’ surrounding your content

There is simply NO other more efficient action you can take in Internet marketing today that has more leverage, none. You can effectively narrow your marketing tasks down to simply writing educational, enlightening and entertaining content for your target audience, syndicate that content and watch as your target audience begins to arrive at your website in perpetually growing numbers.

No other form of Internet marketing is this easy and none is more powerful in terms of time spent to reward gained.

Of course to use this leverage you have to go through a paradigm shift in what you “thought” Internet marketing was all about. To use this leverage you must forget marketing and start being educational, enlightening and entertaining to the audience you wish to attract. Then this audience will seek out your wares, no selling required… Sales just happen.

It is a shift away from the “pitch” and into quality of information which leads to sales. Internet consumers are VERY wise these days. They base their judgment of what to buy based on trust and social mention. Consumers are savvy now; they know how to research to find the answers they seek… Are you going to be one that answers those questions in an educational, enlightening or entertaining way or are you just looking for a sale
To harness the leverage of content syndication you MUST shift your thinking and forget about marketing. As you forget about marketing and focus on delivering quality content, marketing will happen for you automatically. How is this for counter intuitive?

Are you ready for some FUTURE SHOCK? … If not I suggest you get ready. It’s already here and Thomas and I (and our partners and staff) have spent over 4 years researching, testing and visiting Times Square, daily claiming our gold, which nobody else seems to notice…Honest, you should see OUR backpacks!

How do you drive traffic to your home based business blog?

After all, a blog on the net will not simply attract people on its own.  It is not a case of ‘If you build it, they will come.’  If you already have a LIST, you have a ready audience.  If not, then just like any website on the net, you must do the work to get it indexed in the search engines for your targeted keywords.

In other words, you’ve got to make sure that people find you when they do a search for what you have blogged about!

I spent a weekend with master internet marketers and came away with some very interesting and strategic tips for you to use to drive traffic to your home business blog with SEO.  Most of them I wasn’t even doing yet … and my blogs do OK! Imagine how yours will do if you follow “The Six Step Formula for Driving Targeted Traffic to Your Blog.”

The Six Step Formula for Driving Targeted Traffic to Your Blog

1. Write a Magical Blog Post
2. Ping it at Pingoat.com
3. Comment on 5 blogs, linking direct to your new Magical Blog Post.
4. Add your post to 5 different RSS directories.
5. Join 5 MyBlogLog.com communities and add the owners of the communities as contacts.
6. Social bookmark EVERYTHING! I love www.OnlyWire.com for this task.
   Social Bookmark your post
   Social bookmark your 5 comments
   Social Bookmark the post’s RSS feed

When you follow the six steps above, you will be following best practices for getting your home business blog ranked high in the search engines.   This will result in free visitors, and hopefully free subscribers to your list!

As I said, I was only doing half of these things before, and I’ve done well.  Imagine if you start right now, from a place of Power, to work your business SMART, not hard!

Follow those 6 steps- as I can virtually guarantee your competition is NOT! Search Engine Optimization of your blog will set you apart from the other home based business blogs.

Need the instructions to set up your blog?  You’ll find a checklist and video tutorial when you get your own copy of MLM List Building Exposed.

Its about time someone gave you the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth! Work your business the right way, from the start!

Ann Sieg Reveals that there is comprehensive training on
Pay Per Click advertising for MLM inside the Renegade Professional.

You’ll have early bird access to the Renegade Pro training when you download your
copy of the Attraction Marketers Manifesto.

Ann Sieg wrote:

“Now that we’ve covered all the no-cost and
low-cost lead generation methods.

Let me tell you about some of the other stuff
you’ll learn inside Renegade Professional.

I’ll start with another method that costs
a few dollars — yet works like gangbusters
almost immediately!

1) GOOGLE ADWORDS

Number of video tutorials: 9

Number of hours/minutes/seconds (2:45:00)

Google Adwords is the fastest way to get
your site in front of qualified prospects.

No IFS, ANDS, or BUTS about it.

If you’ve ever wondered how I generate
the majority of my leads every day…

THIS IS HOW I DO IT!

In fact, since I started using this method
just a few years ago I’ve generated over
350,000 product and opportunity leads.

As a result of this abundant lead flow my
downline has exploded.

Product sales are through the roof.

And my income has shot up to $250,000.00
a month with my business.

——————————————
NOW YOU CAN COPY THESE SAME
MILLION DOLLAR TECHNIQUES I USE
——————————————

You’ll learn exactly how to…

-Sign up for your own Google account

-Create a head-turning ad that will capture
your prospect’s attention and literally
force them to visit your website

-Identify your perfect prospect and research
the keywords they use on the search engines

-The lowest cost strategy to launch your
ad into the highest possible positions on
Google.

Oh, one other thing I should add.

If you’re a grizzled Google Adwords veteran
all that stuff might seem pretty basic.

However, we’ll arm you to the teeth with
plenty of advanced strategies too!

2) LEAD CAPTURE PAGES

Number of video tutorials: 5

Number of hours/minutes/seconds: (4:00:00)

Want to know the best way to hoist yourself
head and shoulders above your competition?

Here it is.

Create your own web page specifically designed
to capture product and opportunity leads for
your business.

Or in other words a “lead- capture page.”

—————————————–
DOING THIS WILL PUT YOU LIGHT YEARS
AHEAD OF EVERYONE ELSE IN YOUR COMPANY
—————————————–

Who are faithfully using those useless
“cookie-cutter” websites provided by
corporate for a steep monthly fee.

Why aren’t these sites any good?

They DON’T focus on your prospect’s true
wants and needs.
Their deepest desires and cravings.

Instead pictures of the products are
plastered everywhere.

And pointless facts about the company
are loudly proclaimed.

We’ll show you how to do the opposite.

You’ll learn how to craft a message you can
plop onto your lead- capture page that will
immediately connect with your prospects…

——————————————
AND ENTICE THEM TO FILL OUT
YOUR FORM AND BECOME YOUR LEAD!
——————————————

But before you can do that, you need to
actually *build* your own capture page.

We’ve got that covered too!

You’ll get over 4 hours of click-by-click
instruction on how to set EVERYTHING up.

You’ll learn…

-Most effective layouts and designs that
will compel your prospects to take the
action you want them to take

-Best fonts, sizes, and colors to use that
will grab them by the eyeballs and force
them to read your message

-Irresistible bonus ideas you can offer your
prospects in exchange for their email address

3) EMAIL MARKETING

Number of video tutorials: 8

Number of hours/minutes/seconds: (6:13:00)

Listen, if you want a highly profitable
network marketing business…

One that’s going to keep paying you
forever (even if your company goes
out of business…)

Here’s what you need to start doing
if you haven’t already.

——————————————
BUILD YOUR OWN EMAIL
SUBSCRIBER LIST
——————————————

Why is this so important?

Because if you’re NOT doing this…

If you’re not capturing people’s names and
email addresses when they visit your blog,
website, or lead-capture page…

The chances of them coming back or of
you ever communicating with them again…

ARE SLIM TO NONE!

Which means you’re letting the vast majority
of your sales and sponsoring opportunities
slip right down the drain.

Not cool.

Inside Renegade Professional we’ll show you
exactly how to prevent this from happening.

You’ll learn…

-How to automatically follow-up with leads
you generate using your own auto-responder

-How to send beneficial emails that will
melt the hearts of even your most skeptical
prospects and cause them to trust you

-How to send money making emails that will
politely ask your prospects and existing
customers to buy what you’re selling

-How to build personal relationships with
all the people on your list in the same
time it’d take to build just one

And much, much more.

——————————————
ALL WAITING FOR YOU INSIDE
RENEGADE PROFESSIONAL!
——————————————

That about wraps it up for today.

But please stay tuned, okay?

Because on Monday I have something BIG
to tell you about.

If you think all this click-by-click
video training is cool…

WAIT UNTIL YOU FIND OUT ABOUT THIS!

It’s the best part of Renegade Professional
and I just had to save it for last.

Talk to you soon.
Ann Sieg

P.S. Just yesterday we had another 754
people join our “early bird” waiting list.

And close to 75 more join every hour!

I’m not quite sure why these numbers
continue to skyrocket.

Although I’ve got a couple theories.

1) Maybe some business owners outside of
the MLM industry found out about this
launch and are flocking to sign-up.

OR…

2) Maybe some of the 1,000,000+ distributors
from the big health and nutrition companies
are already jumping on board.

I’m going to put on my detective hat and
do some investigating here.

I’ll let you know what I come up with.

Renegade Professional opens it’s doors to
the general public on Thursday, April 2nd
at Noon Eastern time.

GET ON THE EARLY BIRD LIST

I’ll send you a special link about an hour
before the site “officially” goes live.

That way hopefully you can get in before
everyone else starts storming the gates.”

There’s a ton of information (AND misinformation) to sift
and sort through online, but usually you have to pay for the
really good stuff.

Well, Ann Sieg and Mike Klingler are bucking this trend.

They’ve just released ANOTHER free video and this time
it’s over 90 minutes of actual training from inside their new
program, Renegade Professional.

I have to tell you, I’ve purchased a lot of different online
training courses before.

Some of them good, some of them bad.

But NONE of them have even come close to the level of
detail in these videos (there’s actually two of them).

I encourage you to go watch both of them, follow along and
actually DO what they’re teaching you. Right now, today.

The strategies they’ll be sharing with you don’t cost
anything to implement.

If you haven’t gotten started yet online, that will all change
by the time you’re done with these.

You will have actually setup your first REAL marketing piece
on the internet and will be in the process of generating leads
and earning money.

And if you’ve tried tons of online systems in the past and
have never made a dime, you’ll understand exactly why after
you watch these (as well as what to do differently).

Mike walks you through the process – one click at a time – of
how to start promoting your own products and opportunity
right away… not someone else’s system.

(There’s not even anything for sale on this website and you
could actually be getting calls from legitimate prospects about
your business as soon as tomorrow by watching this.)

He also shows you how to do it for different industries like
health & wellness, legal services, and others (not to mention
specific network marketing company examples).

And both videos are totally free, so there’s no reason not to
check them out:

P.S. – You know, a lot of people are under the impression
that they have to wait until they have a huge downline in
order to experience the benefits of leverage and residual
income.

But you can start enjoying that right now.

Go check out these free videos, follow along, and you’ll be
able to generate sales and leads for months and even years
to come…

All from just a few minutes worth of work today.

Mike calls this creating “online real estate” and you’ll
understand why once you try it for yourself:

The word is out! Google Adwords doesn’t allow advertising of MLM, Network Marketing schemes or Affiliate sites! The game is over, we are all doomed to using SEO to get our sites found… or are we?

Of course Google doesn’t have it out for home based entrepreneurs. They simply hate cookie cutter replicated websites! In fact, they will not allow you to advertise a replicated site, or a domain name that has been forwarded to a replicated site, even if its masked. This isn’t new news… just seems that way after many MLMers set up their new adwords campaigns after purchasing PPC Domination and found that their campaigns were being shut down by the droves.

So what is a online marketer to do? If you cant use the most effective advertising medium available online to generate hundreds of leads daily, how are you going to jump start your lead generation efforts? The answer is quite simple, yet I’ll bet 98% of the networkers reading this have not mastered this skill yet.

What is the solution?

Create your own capture pages! I do know how intimidating this sounds – it took me 3 years to even contemplate it. Once I did, I simply used my Dreamweaver software and went for it. I looked for capture pages that other successful marketers were using, created a ‘swipe file’ of phrases that I liked, and I hacked together capture pages. I purchased an autoresponder and learned how to insert the code on the page… got over the mystery of the FTP to server thing, and jumped for joy at my creations! Why? Because I was finally the one in control of my pages, and my lead lists. I did not have to pay anyone else to use their ‘system’. I was an independent business person, creating my golden list.

Folks, the Milletic’s family’s future was rewritten when Mom learned these skills. Sounds dramatic, but it absolutely is true.

“But I don’t know how.”

“I’m not good at making web pages.”

Learn. If a high school science teacher could learn to hack together websites after her children were asleep (ME) – You most certainly can.

When you have your own capture pages, you’ll have no problem running Google Adwords campaigns. You can even customize your capture pages to match your Google ad and get much higher conversions of clicks to leads. You’ll be able to do all of the things that are recommended by MLM Adwords expert Jim Yaghi.

Just get the heck out of your own way and step into your future as an internet based network marketer. It’s time your old school met the New school. You can’t be part of the Newest school if you are still paying someone else to use their system – Period.

3 Reasons Not to Get PPC Domination by Jim Yaghi, a Magnetic Sponsoring Release

No doubt you have heard all of the hype surrounding the release of PPC Domination, a new Pay Per Click course by Jim Yaghi of Magnetic Sponsoring that claims it can teach you to generate hundreds of leads per day for your home based business using nothing but Google adwords.  I’m here to tell you 3 reasons you should NOT buy this course.

#1 You are dead lazy.  You know you won’t even get through the 13 videos that make PPC as clear as day for those who are willing to grow their brains and earn while they learn.

#2 You are scared to fail.  You know you really aren’t a risk taker.  You just pretend to be an entrepreneur because it makes you feel good about yourself.  You bought into your business thinking it would grow on its own.

#3 Your time isn’t valuable. You have all the time in the world to generate leads using other methods.  You aren’t into efficiency or leveraging your money.  You’d rather spend hours a day using other methods that bring in trickles of leads, and trickles of money.

If this describes you, then you certainly do not want to learn:

• The sales funnel that makes your Google ads effectively free.
• How to identify your real target market for your business opportunity
• How to choose the correct domain name
• How to create a highly effective capture page.
• How to Setup Your Google Account for the First Time
• A Guided Tour of the Adwords Interface
• How to Match Keywords to Search Strings
• How to Use Split-Testing to Slash Click Cost and Boost Returns
• How to Write Effective Sponsored Ads
• How to Uncover the “Money” Keyword Terms
• Tools for Keyword Research

Just stick to what you know.

I was on the beta test for PPC Domination – see my scathing review:

PPC Domination is the first every Pay Per Click Course specifically for the home based business industry.  If you are in MLM, Network Marketing or Direct sales, you need PPC Domination .  You aren’t stupid- get yours now.
