Getting Back On Track In 2010

One thing I’ve learned from marketing online is that it is REALLY easy to get off track.

From June to about October of 2009, I was averaging $100 in earnings each and everyday online promoting my primary business. I was doing really well.

In early September, I began to look for additional ways to make money online. I was also the target of many reverse marketers who wanted to steer me into their business opportunities. Needless to say, not much good came out of any of that.

EZ Wealth Solution is my primary business and has been VERY good to me. I know you may be wondering, “Why would you lean away from a venture that allowed you to earn over $3000 in a month?” Well, I’m not too sure, but sometimes we let our egos get the best of us.

Besides making money from my EZ Wealth Solution business, I’ve also been earning using the Free And Powerful system. Other than that, pretty much everything has been a complete waste of my time. I started to promote a system called the TWRS and it has been a complete nightmare. Our team is doing well, but I know for certain that the team build will flop. It’s hard trying to get people on the same page. 90% of the people who joined my team have not even paid their monthly fees. Many inactive people are in my downline with good positions. They’re basically slowing down progress BIG TIME! Some people don’t want to work. Others don’t want to pay their monthly fees. It’s just a lot of work to earn in one month what I can earn in one day from EZ Wealth Solution.

I’ve also learned another thing about reverse marketers who have a lot to with this. Stay AWAY for these guys! These guys don’t do anyone ANY good at all. They only serve as a way to distract you from what you are trying to do.

Get back on track with what has been working for you in 2010. Don’t join every opportunity that comes your way either. Focus on promoting 1-2 systems while building a list and good reputations with people. Continue to market your business and don’t respond to annoying reverse marketers.

New GmailXtreme Scam?

I got a message the other day from a marketer whom I trust VERY much. His Skype message read:
“Check this out, i just bought this today, cost $20 and i can email to 45 million gmail users every day”

Since this was a marketer whom I trust, I figured it would be something that would be worthwhile to me and my subscribers.

Anyway, I bought it, but I was thrown back by the purchase process. The first $15 went to the the person who referred me to GmailXtreme. That was paid via Paypal. The remaining $5 was paid to the admin via another payment processor. This drew and immediate red flag in my head. Since the buyer must complete 2 separate payments, I knew the chances would be high that some people cards would get declined when trying to pay the admin fee which would result in the buyer not receiving the product. This is a BIG no no and Paypal does not tolerate buyers making payments through their system who don’t get their products. This is an EASY way to get your Paypal account limited so if you’re reading this and you promote this product or any other product offered at mysalespage.com that uses this same payment method, BEWARE!

After buying the product, my goal was to start promoting and that’s what I did. I became an affiliate and sent an ad out to my list. I had some buyers and a few of them contacted me asking me what my results were with the service. I was a bit thrown back because at that point, I had not even used the service yet. I decided to use it making sure to track my results. After sending out 2 mailings that should have reached 90 million people, I’ve only received…..0 HITS! Nothing! Not one single click. I’ve had other people contact me with the same results so I knew it wasn’t just me.

So, is Gmailxtreme a scam? I don’t like to play the scam game, but I can honestly say that the service appears to be no good and I do not recommend it. It could be that the service is sending emails right into peoples spam folder. Who knows? All I can say that a 0% click through rate won’t help anyone except for the owners of this product and the people who promote it. I must add that the support is VERY responsive and responded to every email I sent.

Until I get to the bottom of this, I refunded EVERYONE who bought this from me the FULL $20 even though all I had to refund was $15. One guy only got a $15 refund from me, but that’s only because his card was declined when it was time to the pay the $5 admin fee and he never receive the product.

At this time, Sean Grimes does NOT recommend GmailXtreme.

EZ Wealth Solution Review

My First Blog Post For The New Year!!

Sorry that I haven’t posted for a while. I actually had moved my site over to another domain for a while. I had to do this because I was trying to decide what domain I would use for my new membership site.

I’ve still been doing good with EZ Wealth Solution, plus I’ve added some new ventures to my menu. I started back promoting my GDI business using a new Powerful System. I’ve been on the GDI leaderboards every week for 5 weeks straight.

I’ve also teamed up with some some young marketers from Italy who really want to help others just like myself. We’re doing our best to place people under people in a 2×8 matrix. Building in a straight line is the way to go and a 2x is the closest you’re going to get to a straight line.

I made a video on this project which can be seen below:

Anyway, this is what I’ve been up to.

Eliminate The Fear Of Calling Your Prospects

You know, I was thinking the other day and a GREEN light immediately came on in my head. It was really simple and I don’t know why I even overlooked this.

You see, I’ve been marketing online since 2006 and I know that follow up is VERY important. Getting prospects for your business is one thing, but do you have a strong follow up system in place?

Many online marketers fail for one reason only and that’s because they have weak follow up systems in place. Many people hate calling their leads on the phone. It doesn’t matter if the leads are warm or cold, calling leads probably is the most scariest thing that a marketer will ever face.

In every business that I’ve ever been a part of, I’ve always done better than my competition when I took the time to call my prospects and introduce myself to them. Calling prospects on the phone is frowned upon because in many cases, the person making the call feels like he/she is trying to sell something and if it’s one thing I’ve learned, most people are very poor salesmen/women! On the other hand, when you take the time to call a prospect, the prospect gets a good vibe and in many cases will buy or join what you have to offer.

As you may already know, my main business is EZ Wealth Solution and has been since June 2009. I always generate tour takers(prospects) for my business, but I never used to call my tour takers. I will say this much though. Back in July of 2009, I decided to give calling my prospects a try and it really paid off. I called 2 people on the phone and I closed both sales! Calling prospects is very powerful, but it is very time consuming in many cases. That is, up til now.

I came across a tool that allows me to send out voice broadcast messages to my prospects. It’s really simple to use. I simply set up an online account with Dialmycalls.com, create an audio voice broadcast that is uploaded to the system by phone, generate prospects for my business and then simply plug them into the system. It’s probably one of the best tools I’ve come across. So what if I generate 50 leads in one day? No problem. You can upload your 50 contacts information right into the system in CSV, XLX or XLSX format and schedule the system to send out your voicebroadcast instantly. You can all schedule calls to be sent out. This is good if you get leads in the early morning hours. You have the system call your leads at a reasonable time.

Lets take this scenario for a moment. Let’s say you market your online business as you should be doing. You get an email saying that you just got got a prospect. What would you do in this case? In most cases, you should at least send that person an email. It you want better results, you should manually pick up the phone and call this person. Well, with Dialmycalls.com, all you have to do is put your prospects number into the system and have it call your prospects for you. This tool totally eliminate the fear of calling prospects over the phone.

Anyway, I thought this would be helpful. To try this service out, just create a free account at Dialmycalls.com.

More Things You Need To Know About MLM, Business Opportunities And Affiliate Programs!

The internet is FULL of MLM’s(Multi Level Marketing Companies), affiliate programs and business opportunities. Systems of that nature usually pay out REALLY low commissions. From my experience, you’ll want to promote a product or service that allows you to receive a HIGH commission on whatever it is your selling. I’m able to earn the money I do because I earn 100% on every sale I make. Now, this is not possible with MLM programs, binaries, matrices or even affiliate programs. Don’t get me wrong. A lot of money can be made online even if you aren’t earning 100%, but you’ll have to do LOTS of volume to bring in any serious money and most people simply don’t have enough marketing experience to generate high sales like Coca Cola for example. A typical commission payout is 5-20% with most MLM’s and business opportunities. From my experience, I could never make any real money from programs like that even if I made many sales. I now make in one day what I would make in 1-5 months from any given MLM.

Here is an example of what I’m getting at. I used to be with a popular MLM called GDI(Global Domains International). I personally referred 100’s of people to this company and had a downline in the hundreds. You may think that was enough to make some serious cash right? Wrong! I only earned $1 a month for every person that was in my downline. For all the work I did and money I spent on advertising, receiving a check in the mail for $150-$200 just didn’t sit right with me. I spent more on marketing and promoting than what I was earning. At $10 a month, GDI was a great entry level MLM and the fact that they paid out 10% was pretty good. 10% is actually a high commission payout for an MLM company, but as you can see in this example, I was working my butt off to make their company filthy rich!

You should also know that MLM not only requires that you do a lot of work, but you must also recruit people into your downline that will work just as hard as you. In my experience, I’ve found that out of 20 people you can recruit, only 1-2 will be good candidates for your business. This is why I don’t recommend MLM opportunities because you can waste a lot of time spinning your wheels only to recruit tire kickers(lazy people) into your downline.

You should promote something that will give you immediate access to your money. Most programs will make you wait at least one month before you receive a commission check. This was the case with GDI. This makes it very hard to self fund your business when you’re first starting out. By promoting a system that will give you immediate access to your money, you can put your earnings back into your business without having to pull out your Credit Card over and over as I had to do when I was with GDI.

You also should not promote anything that has a high payout threshold. From my experience, this is the most unethical thing any internet business can do. You see, most MLM businesses and affiliate programs do not want to give you a commission check as sad as it may sound. They can easily accomplish this by setting a high payout threshold by requiring you to earn $50-$100 or even more before they pay you any money. By doing this, the company is able to have many people promoting their service which may bring just a few sales for the people doing the promoting, but this will add up to many sales for the company. This is how MLM’s get a bad name. I’m sure you’ve heard the term, “Only the guys at the top make the real money.” Since most people will never reach the payout threshold in a timely manner, they’ll eventually quit without receiving one penny after doing a lot of hard work. So the company ends up keeping all of those unclaimed commissions.

It’s really up to you what you sell or promote, but like I said, from my experience, you won’t make any big money unless you’re marketing something that pays out 100% on what you earn.

You can sell affiliate products, but you’ll never earn 100% on sales and you’ll never get immediate access to your money. You’ll also need to know how to create splash pages if you want to promote affiliate products through networks such as Clickbank which can be a nightmare if you’re new to internet marketing.

I basically own my business outright. I own every product that I sell and I only have to pay a small admin fee of $10/month, but I’m able to earn $47, $97, $247, $497 and $997 instant cash payments by selling digital software products online. I also don’t have to share the profits with anyone which is really cool!

Taking the FREE TOUR will allow you to see the full power of this system.

Look deeper into your compensation plan and you’ll know what your company owners think you’re worth. Are you worth 5-10% or 100%?

The choice is yours!

Put Yourself In The Shoes Of The Failing Marketer

Today, I have to vent a little.

First off, I apologize to anyone who feels like they are getting bombarded with emails from me. I also apologize if it seems like I’m sending out information regarding certain passive income programs that may not seem appropriate.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. EZ Wealth Solution is my primary business, but I do dabble in other programs from time to time. You may wonder, “Why does he join other programs if he’s doing so well with EZ Wealth Solution?” That’s a good question and I’ll let you know why in a minute.

Lets look at things from the failing marketers perspective first. Over 95% of the people who join any MLM or affiliate program will fail. That’s the honest truth. I know it and every other successful market on the internet knows it. These failing marketers join program after program like its a drug or something. Simply put, most people who attempt to market online will always fail.

Now, lets say that I find a VERY easy way to earn money that actually works for me. Wouldn’t it be a good thing for me to introduce such a program to people who always fail? Some people think I should stay away from doing that, but I must say this. If I can find a solution that puts money in someones pocket who has done nothing except lost out on every thing he/she tries, what harm has been done?

I’ve been told that promoting certain passive income program can ruin my credibility. From my experience, it does tend to ruin your credibility with a few people, but on the other hand, it can drastically help your credibility with others. Think about it. If you can put 100 failing marketers on to something that actually works, it can’t do anything but help your credibility.

You see, I know that most people suck at marketing. Marketing is not something that everyone can learn overnight. There is no magic button to push and this is why so many people always fail with MLM, affiliate marketing or business opportunities in general.

Anyway, I’ll continue to market my EZ Wealth Business just as I’ve been doing. I’ll also continue to point failing marketers to passive income solutions to help them earn back money that they’ve lost in an effort of joining MLM programs and trying to promote them as well.

Are You Setting Your Downline Up To Fail?

Are you a hard worker when it comes to marketing your online business? If so, then you may be setting your down-line up to fail.

If you’ve noticed, many marketers are doing A LOT of different things to build their online businesses. Many marketers are creating lead capture pages, using auto-responders, putting together you-tube videos, doing live conferences, setting up blogs, marketing their businesses online and even creating their own information products to build their businesses. There is nothing wrong with this, but you have to understand something that is really important. Your down-line in most cases will want to do exactly what you’re doing if they partner with you. If they do decide to partner with you, this can be VERY discouraging to them and this is very understandable. Most people simply want to join an opportunity and start making money. If you’ve been marketing online long enough, you’ll know this is not possible in most cases, but many business opportunities on the internet give newbie marketers the impression that this is exactly what they can do. I’ll admit, many opportunities throw out pitches that can be very deceiving. Marketers like myself who’ve been around long enough know better though. In order to make money from MLM or affiliate programs, you must advertise and market your business properly.

If you’re a newbie marketer, you should be VERY careful if you join anything under a sponsor who uses powerful marketing strategies to recruit you. Chance are that you’ll have to do exactly what your sponsor does if you want to duplicate what he/she is doing. On the other hand, if you’re an experienced marketer, your marketing strategy should not be too difficult to follow. If your marketing strategy is too difficult, no one will be able to follow what you’re doing. Yes, you’ll be able to make money, but the people in your down-line simply won’t be able to keep up with what you’re doing. I know this from personal experience. About 2 years ago, I was in a business where I earned over $10,000 in a very short time. I sponsored many people, but I didn’t have one person in my down-line who could follow what I was doing.Yes, I was able to make money, but I felt bad for the people who could not follow along with what I was doing.

Most people I recruit into any program I’ve ever joined have failed. I’m not saying this to discourage you. I’m just being honest. I’ll admit that I’ve used many marketing strategies that many people simply could not follow. Think about this for a moment. If you join my main business under me today, you have no idea how I even market my business before joining. All you see is the business opportunity with a hyped up sales pitch. You don’t see the money I spend on advertising. You don’t see me sending out emails to my list on daily basis. You don’t see the phone conversations I have with potential partners. You don’t know that I may have used a personal lead capture page I created that is tied in with my auto-responder. Like I said, all you see is the business opportunity with a hyped up sales pitch. I make a lot of money from my main business, but I already know that most people simply do not have the drive to market the way I do.

I’ve learned that 95% of failing marketers should stay away from MLM opportunities and affiliate programs altogether and stick with passive income solutions where they can earn guaranteed money without sponsoring. This will ensure that they don’t lose any money. There are many programs on the internet that a person can join without spending any money at all and make really good money it they put their mind to it. There are also investment programs(can be risky) you can get into as well.

If you want to learn more about such systems, please Click Here!

Hope this has been helpful to you in some way. Just know that if you put your mind to it, the sky is the limit. If you don’t think you’re up to learning how to market online, stick with passive income solutions.

I Earned Over $9,000 In $ Months From This!

How My Sponsor Made Over $150,000 In 9 Months

You know, sometimes we lose track of what we really should be doing to get to where we want to be.

MY sponsor Jim Carpenter is kicking MAJOR butt! He’s earned over $150,000 in 9 months. He’s also responsible for helping me to earn $9,000 in 4 months.

How does he do it?

First off, Jim is no guru. He just knows how to market his business. He doesn’t create lead capture pages. He doesn’t have his own personal blog. He doesn’t have a super product that he sells. He doesn’t even use an auto-responder. Jim does the exact opposite of what many failing marketers are taught to do. He simply advertises the heck out of his business opportunities landing page. That’s really it. He then follows up with his prospects.

You know, I’ve REALLY been getting side-tracked lately. I’ll see an offer that looks too good to turn down that I end up joining. This is really dumb when you think about it. Why would I turn away from a proven system that has allowed me to earn over $9,000 in 4 months? Well, it true what they say. The grass does tend to look greener at times.

I just did something recently that brought me back to light. I joined a team build project that does look promising. Here is what got me though. I’d have to pay $50 a month and I can’t really make more than I make now. With my current business, I only have to pay $10 and I can make serious money if I just stay focused. I’d make up to $25 a pop in the team build, but every member would have to stay active. You see, I’ve learned that you can’t really make from system that don’t pay you 100% on all sales. That’s what I earn from my main business.

I was also brought back to light because I had 2 $97 payments come in from my main business recently. This let me know what I really need to be focusing on. You don’t work as hard as I did on something just to throw it down the drain in a few months.

Just think about this. All I ever have to pay to my business is $10 a month. From that, I can earn multiple $47, $97, $247, $497 and $997 cash payments and I also get instant access to my money. I’d be a complete fool to walk away from that. Don’t you think?

Stay focused!

Only get away from what you’re doing if you’ve been working hard, but only receive small commission checks. For every 2 members I recruit, I average anywhere from $144-$247 and I get instant access to that. Remember, I only have to pay the company $10 a month. You can’t beat that.

Hope this has helped you.

Did I See A UFO?

This will probably be the weirdest post I’ve ever made, but please try to follow what I saw 2 nights ago that got my attention.

I live in Ofallon Missouri and was out walking my dog around Sunset. I looked in the North Eastern part of the sky and I saw what appeared to be 2 bright starts next to each other that were at 45 degrees from each other.

What got my attention was that the stars(that’s what I thought they were at first) seemed to be moving VERY slowly in sync with each other and they were really bright. They were moving so slow, that I had to take my head and place it against the post on my porch and gauge the lights with the roof of my neighbors house to determine that they were indeed moving.

I thought it could have been 2 planes or maybe even one, but the lights seemed too bright and the speed at which they were moving made it very hard to tell. As I looked at these lights, they simply faded away. It’s like they were really bright and then 3 seconds later, they were gone out of my site. They just faded away like someone turned off a dimmer switch. If I had to describe how bright they were, I’d compare them to a welding arc light.

Now, I live about 15 minutes west of a busy airport so it very well could have been some sort of plane or planes. It just looked REALLY weird how the lights disappeared right before my eyes.

Since they were moving, they/it couldn’t have been stars. Since they/it didn’t appear to travel very far, they couldn’t have been a satellite.

My guess? I was either looking at a plane or planes or it very well could have been 1 or 2 objects that simply could not be identified.

I usually look up to the sky a lot and never in my 36 years of living have I ever seen anything like what I saw the other night. Also know that when I say I saw a UFO, that’s exactly what I mean. I’m not saying I saw a spaceship from planet X. I’m also not saying that I saw a UFO that had little green men on it. I simply saw something that I could not identify using logic.

Hopefully, this wasn’t too weird for you.

Please feel free to share any strange experiences that you’ve experienced.

Take care,
