There's a house for sale in the neighborhood. Has been for over a year.
Not uncommon in today's market. But the home's Pepto pink and lime green facade - in a neighborhood of conservative homes painted in subtle, neutral colors (many of which are also for sale) - makes me think it will continue to be on the market for quite a while.
Eye-catching, for sure. But if the owner thinks that's giving him an advantage in the marketplace, he's making a big mistake.
Are you doing the same thing with the website for your Home Seller Assist business - depending on flashy graphics to make the sale for you?
Fancy websites with animation, music, and the like may keep Web designers happily employed, but they do nothing to help you sell your program.
Your Home Seller Assist business site should be simple and clean, with a clear call to action.
You want to convince visitors to buy the program with an easy to read and understand sales message, not dazzle them with design.

The "irrational" markets are over.
The wild appreciation in real estate values over the 10-year period that peaked in 2006 is
history.
There's no argument from anyone on that point.
Combine that with the failure of huge banks and home lenders, and you have a very tight money market restricting any short-term price growth, but this is providing those working the Home Seller Assist program created by John Alexander and also known as We Provide The Cash, a huge opportunity.

Psychology Of Recruiting
A lot of people ask the following question: "Can you just show me a simple step by step system to grow my business that doesn't cost me a lot?"
It's a good question, but I'm revealing this to you today not to answer it, but to dig beneath it and use it to help you recruit more people into your Home Seller Assist business.
So think about that question for a second. What does it say to you?
What it shows me is that many people are willing to work if they have a game plan. They just want to know "How".
More than your company's products or services, more than how great your comp plan is . . .
Most of your prospects simple want to know how you can help them quit their job, or supplement their social security income.
They want it to be simple, and they want action steps. If I've learned anything about marketing it's listen to your market and then give them what they want.
Be the provider of that and recruiting will never be a problem again.

Turning Real Estate Website Traffic Into Profits
When starting out with a new website, one of the biggest focuses is on traffic. This idea is well served because even with the most impressive website around, if no one views it, it doesn't do you any good. The problem with this being the focus though is that most real estate agents always keep that focus on traffic instead of how they can turn that traffic into revenue.
Converting Traffic to Leads
The first step into making that traffic profitable is to ensure that as much of your traffic as possible actually converts into fresh new leads via e-mail and the phone. Leads are the lifeblood of any business and a steady flow of leads provides you with the opportunity to pick the best clients to work with.
How?
When a visitor is on your Home Seller Assist website they have to have a reason to pick up the phone or send you an e-mail. Without some motivation to contact you, they simply won't do it. You don't want to do anything crazy like offer a gift card for their information, just provide a call to action that they can't resist!
Calls to action empower your web visitors to get the information they want in the format they want. For example, when you have a page on your website that is written about a neighborhood, provide them the ability to get listings in that area. You can simply write "Get ALL the homes available in MyNeighborhood Now" and that link would take them to a form to fill out so they can get the home listings in that neighborhood. Your call to action in this example is compelling and easy for the consumer to take action on.
Converting Leads to Appointments
In order to make that traffic ultimately profitable, you can't stop at just generating leads. Leads are a great first step and once you have that down you can really focus on booking appointments. The skills involved with converting leads to appointments are responding to e-mails and picking up the phone.
Tackling the Phone
People making requests on websites for real estate information do want to be called. They don't want to feel pressured when you call, but they certainly do want help, otherwise they wouldn't have put in their phone number!
It is important to call people who make requests as soon as you possibly can. After doing studies on websites across the country, we found the most effective time frame is to call them in under seven minutes because they will often still be on your website.
Keep your conversations short and provide them the opportunity to meet with you. The opportunity you will provide them by meeting you is the ability to save them from making more requests all across the web so they can actually find the property they are looking for.
A New Focus
After that first push of getting traffic to your website, make sure to put the focus on converting traffic into leads, and those leads into appointments. The process doesn't have to be fancy, but keeping the focus on leads and appointments means you will have more transactions each and every month.

There are only two ways to “get good” at things in life...
You can learn on your own through trial and error like the woman in the story above insists on doing, or you can learn from someone else who’s already paid that price which is what I like to do.
And in case you haven’t figured it out yet, “buying” someone else’s life experiences in the form of a book or consulting is ALWAYS 100’s or even 1000’s of times cheaper than trying to figure it out on your own.
When you buy a copy of Magnetic Sponsoring, you’re not just buying a “course”.
You’re buying 10 years worth of experiences and over $100,000 in lessons learned the hard-way so you can skip all the crap and instantly dive right into what works.
What you’re buying is a short-cut, and I can’t think of anything worth more money than a nice, simple guide filled with someone else’s mistakes and victories.
I can’t promise your success. No one can.
But in the end, the choice is obviously yours.

businesses. In the process these online marketers have carved out
an envious lifestyle - working at home or wherever they want,
working their own hours, creating part-time or full-time incomes
for themselves and their families.
Many have attained a level of personal and financial freedom,
rarely experienced this side of a Bill Gates's luncheon.
Along the way many of these marketers and ordinary people have
realized in order to fully maximize their benefits from sales and
traffic you need professional marketing tools. In other words,
you need high quality proven marketing tools and software to
make your job easier and quicker. These marketing tools will
save you time, money and stress! A whole lot of stress!

Use scarcity to sell more product?
Using phony scare tactics is almost always a bad idea. Honesty is a better policy.
The most effective way to do this is to come up with a scarcity tactic that's honest and sounds reasonable. That creates genuine urgency to get some prospects off the fence they're sitting on.
What you want to do is have a good reason behind thes carcity claim you're making.
Anybody can scream,"Quantities are limited!" You need to do more than that. For example, one way to create scarcity is to limit the number of copies of the product you sell.
But why are you limiting it? That's where you need a good reason so your claim doesn't sound like hype.
You might say something like this: "I struck a deal with a contributor to this that I would sell only 125 copies, so when they're gone, they're gone. Don't wait and miss out on this. When the doors close, I can't make exceptions."
Assuming you actually did strike a deal with a contributor like that, you've got a great scarcity claim to make. The point is, you don't want to whip prospects into a buying frenzy based on a false sense of urgency. If you develop a reputation for doing that, your scarcity claims will lose their effectiveness. You'll also get a reputation as somebody who screams about scarcity when it's really not scarce.
And by the way, when you make a scarcity claim, stick to it! If you say you'll take down the sales page by next Tuesday, don't leave it up until Wednesday. That will ruin your reputation fast.
Self-Promotion
By Brendan Florez
Let's say you're trying to convince a potential customer/employer/investor to begin a relationship with you with the Home Seller Assist program created by John Alexander. There are only three ways to do it, and they are not equally effective. From worst to best, here they are:
1. Tell them how great you are.
This is the least effective method, but it's better than nothing. The key here is to be honest and not come across as trying too hard to impress. When an older gentleman asked Bono what he did for a living, the rock star said, "I'm a musician." Don't be shy about your accomplishments, but don't oversell yourself either.
2. Have others tell them how great you are.
Marketers have a name for this - social proof. If you and your customer have a mutual friend, ask that friend to put in a good word for you. If not, think about who else your customer might consider asking about you, and seek to make a good impression.
3. Show them how great you are.
Nothing's more powerful than a customer witnessing your expertise first hand. If you're a marketer, offer some quick marketing advice for a problem they have. If you're a property manager, give them a tour of your places and show them the financials. Find a way to directly demonstrate your skill, and your chances go way up. That is why I provide a Home Seller Assist newsletter.
The real power of these techniques comes when you do them together. Spend the majority of your time focused on #2 and #3, and #1 will take care of itself.

Creating emails people want to open
How do you ensure people will actually open and read your emails?
The content for your email is of course, hugely important, and the structure of your email matters more than you might think.
If handled correctly, your email campaigns will deliver some fine benefits.
You'll get greater visibility, maintain and even improve your image, and beef up your email lists so your next campaign will have even greater success.
By doing this, people won't be able to help themselves; they'll want to open your emails and act on them (translation - they'll read then buy).

Get Good At Something
Why is this simple, yet powerful?
On many levels it becomes the keystone to your success.
Too many people get involved in a business, have no self esteem, and think the business is going to fix all the woes in their life. It can and will help, but it won't fix it all.
See you've got to get good at something. Doesn't matter much what it is, but being good at something will create the confidence that sparks the magic in your Home Seller Assist business.
It's tough to get traction if all you do is go after the money, but it's easy if you've got something of value to share. Get good at something and share it and in short time, your business will be on the rise.
If it's lead generation, push button recruiting, or the creation of multiple streams of income that floats your boat. Here's your blueprint to get good at one of those things.
Use it. Get good at your favorite and this will spark the magic of wealth creation through increased confidence and competency that will pay you dividends for life.

Create A Side Business Without Quitting Your Day Job
An excellent way to create a steady source of income is to start a side business - one that could potentially be expanded into a full-time career. But some people get overwhelmed by the thought.
But how can yoy do it when you already have a full-time job?"
It may not be easy, but it is definitely possible to keep your day job AND get something started on the side.
Frankly, nobody can afford not to be starting their own business these days. With companies crumbling into ashes and tens of thousands being laid off, having your own business is the only way to feel secure.
The good news is that there are hundreds, if not thousands, of small businesses that can be started on a part-time basis with little capital like the Home Seller Assist program created by John Alexander.
No matter what your reasons are for starting a side business, here's how to do it:
First, Analyze Your Available Time
Assuming you currently work 40 hours a week, that means you've got about 30 hours a week to build your Home Seller Assist business.
Identify Possible Businesses You Could Operate
The easiest side business to start is the Home Seller Assist program because it requires no prior experience and you have to do is direct people to a webcast that takes place Mon-Wed at 8pm Eastern.
If you like animals, you could start a side business as a dog walker. If you have a truck and a strong back, you could deliver items for local stores.
Second, Make a Plan and Go For It
Once you know what kind of business you want to start, you'll be able to come up with a specific plan of action to get it up and running. The Home Seller Assist program does that for you, thus eliminating one more stumbling block.
A Few Words of Caution...
If you are dependent upon the income from your full-time job, don't do anything to jeopardize it. You might not even want to mention that you have an outside interest. If your boss thinks you've already got one foot out the door, you could be the first to be let go at layoff time.
Don't "cheat" the company by doing anything related to your side business during your regular workday.
Nothing should stop you from starting your own side business and securing your financial future. It may not be easy to find the time in your already busy schedule -but with some careful planning, you can do it. Begin now by attending one of the Home Seller Assist webcasts and see how easy it is.

HSA Newsletter launched today...
Good Afternoon,
This is Larry Potter at FastBuyerLoans.com where you can
learn more about the Home Seller Assist program either
as a source of income by merely sending people to our webcasts
Mon-Wed at 8pm Eastern at the above site, whereby you make
either $400 or $600.
Or you registered to learn about our 3% funding to flip
regular properties, short sales or REOs using our funds
and you only pay us back after you flip the property and
collect your profits.
Or you were interested in our Asset Finder program whereby
we teach you how to find portfolios of non-performing assets
like bulk REOs and then show you how to send it into our
Hedge Fund and if they buy it, you make 1/2%. So on a 10
million portfolio you make $50,000. The process is very
simple with our training. You can see an overview of that
by going here.
Or you may have heard that we now include the Inverse Purchase
system of flipping properties as a bonus. I paid almost $2000
for this marvelous program in August of 2007! This patent pending
process shows you how to flip properties without using any
money for downpayments or earnest money and your name never
appears on the deed, but you make huge profits of $30,000,
$40,000 or more.
No matter what reason you registered at FastBuyerLoans.com,
I want you to know as one of the top leaders and probably the
"Alpha" team leader in providing support, I am here to answer
your questions and lend support when you need it.
It is my objective to begin a weekly newsletter to show you how to
succeed in any of the above endeavours. I have been investing
since August of 1984 after reading half way thru Robert Allen's
book called Nothing Down. And after meeting Wade Cook, author of
How To Build A Real Estate Money Machine, in January of 1985,
I was able to go full time into real estate investing in May of
1988 after Zion Industries, Inc closed it doors after over 80
years in business. In January of 1998, I started publishing a
newsletter called Stocks2Watch, so I know a little something
about marketing on the internet.
My newsletter will provide you with tips on how to market the
Home Seller Assist program using various strategies that earned
me over $50,000 in my first six months without paying a dime for
advertising! If you are an investor, you will be getting tips
on the latest methods of making huge profits with very little work
and no risk.
If you have ever been in a tough spot, you know it is very PAINFUL
not to be able to pay your bills or provide for your family the
way you would like to. Well, I just want to tell you that the
Home Seller Assist (HSA) program, also known as We Provide The Cash,
is a financial asset like a CD or mutual fund (they used to be!) that
grows exponentially and pays out over time. And with an "Alpha" team
leader, you are sitting on a once in a lifetime opportunity that can
fulfill your dreams and help you pull in a ton of money.
You should get this newsletter once per week and if you wish to be
removed, see the bottom of this message.
Now, my first tip is for those who want to work the business end
of this program and make $400 or $600 per signup. You can get a
view of that plan at http://homesellerassist.synthasite.com by
clicking on the Compensation Plan.
Our main objective is finding people who want to earn money from
home, those that are interested in "Biz Ops" and I have recently
located a great source. I joined at the no cost level and you can
do the same. At this level, I can obtain one or 7 leads leads at
at time with complete contact info. After using this source for
about two weeks, I have brought two new members in for a total of
$800 These people have not been contacted before and once you
contact them, they are removed from the national database and
stored in your account only. The site is a bit cluttered for my
taste, but everything you need is located on the right side by
the Control Panel. That source is located here, I would get started
with it right away.
And don't forget, we now have a webcast Mon - Wed at 8pm Eastern,
followed by a Q&A session at FastBuyerLoans.com, you do not have
to login. And when you join me, you will have full access to the
live training/support webcasts at 8:30PM Eastern on Wed's and full
access to all of the programs in your back office and full access
to me!
Until next time, have a great week. I look forward to working with
you.

How to successfully manage your Home Seller Assist business...
Automate your Home Seller Assist business - If you haven't taken the time to realize the value of automation, do so soon. With your business on auto-pilot you have more time for other things.
Put systems into place - mistakes are made when processes are not systematized. When processes are consistent, fewer mistakes are made and there are fewer fires to put out.
Take a day off - despite the temptation to work a 7-day week, take at least one day for yourself. You will see your productivity and your health improve. (Not to mention how happy your family will be to see you.)
Go home - set a time schedule for yourself. Schedule the number of hours you will work and stick to that plan.
Set your priorities - there's always another crisis to solve. So be sure to make special occasions with friends and family a top priority. Don't allow a business "disaster" to hold you back. After all, there's bound to be another one tomorrow.
Unless you are willing to take these suggestions to heart, you will never be able to effectively manage your life and work the Home Seller Assist business which was created by John Alexander
And remember, nobody ever lay on their deathbed wishing they had spent more time at the office!

How to Not Only Survive but Prosper in 2009
Prosperity in the midst of a worsening economic recession might sound like a pipe dream going into 2009.
But the reality is that those who'll prosper in 2009 will be those with a definite plan in mind and a lot of courage.
As we've seen during the 2008 holiday season, most Americans are focused on survival right now.
They're circling the wagons in an attempt to protect themselves.
But some lone guns are out in the hostile economic wilderness searching for gold mines of opportunity like the Home Seller Assist program which was created by John Alexander.
Prosperity Road won't be easy to travel at first. There's bound to be plenty of cactus and wild weather to hamper the journey.
But in the end, those gold mines will be worth the effort.
So how will you find your gold mine?
By mapping out where you want to go and how to get there.

Marketing With Just One Channel?
Some business owners and marketers think that one channel of marketing (maybe direct mail, TV ads, or joint ventures) is all they need.
"I just have a little retail store. I'm not a big company," they say. Or, "I reach my customers with the Yellow Pages just fine."
But any business can multiply its profits by using a multi-channel marketing strategy to reach their customers.
For example, the owner of a local cigar shop is already using joint ventures, event marketing, TV and radio advertising, print ads, and direct mail. Hiss coordinated, multi-channel approach has increased the number of customers that come to his shop, the frequency of their purchases, and the amount they spend during each visit.
He is doing very well. But he could do even better testing telemarketing and e-mail marketing, as well as search engine optimization for the his website and pay-per-click ads. If hevtests these additional channels, he will surely find at least one more that will work to his market.
You, too, could amp your Home Seller Assist sales by reaching out to your customers via multiple channels. Keep in mind that not every marketing channel works for every business. That's where testing and tracking comes in. If one channel isn't generating enough sales to justify the time and money spent on it, forget about it... and move on to the next channel.

What's In Your Back Pocket?
For nearly three decades, Ernie Bjorkman was an anchorman for a Denver TV station. Then one day last month, after signing a yearlong contract, he was let go.
But Ernie wasn't worried, because he had something in his back pocket. He'd been going to veterinary technician school to pursue a longtime dream of working with animals.
What's in your back pocket?
It doesn't have to be a new degree. It doesn't have to be a new job.
I'm talking about a side business like the Home Seller Assist program created by John Alexander. Something you can set up and run in your spare time.
Starting a side business may sound scary. But it doesn't have to be. It could help you set aside a little extra money for a nice vacation next summer or the new car you've been wanting. And, if the unthinkable happens, it could keep you afloat while you look for a new job... or even turn into a full-blown career.
If you don't know where to start, don't worry. Home Seller Assist has plenty of resources that can not only help you with a business that's right for you... but can help you get that business up and running and churning out profits in no time.

Ssome techniques to be expertly assertive in almost any situation you'll encounter at work... or in your personal life:
Always speak in a civil manner.

Be clear when voicing your opinion, and be prepared to explain your reasoning.
Don't do anything you don't agree with just to avoid conflict.

Blogging for Optimal Search Engine Optimization (SEO)!!
Did you know that another EXTREMELY POWERFUL benefit in utilizing a blog for traffic generation involves the connection between keyword-rich, content-based blogs and attaining high rankings in search engines?
Obviously getting your website to the top spot of a frequently searched keyword or key phrase will result in massive targeted traffic for your website on a daily basis!
But in the past, the challenge was that large companies with deep pockets would spend whatever it took in hiring Search Engine Optimization specialists to attain top spots in major search engines. So the little guys did not have much of a chance in attaining high rankings for popular searches…..
That is until now!!!
Lately we’ve seen a large influx of the ‘little guys’ getting top rankings for popular searches, even RANKING HIGHER than the ‘big guys’! And what’s more, the websites that attain these high rankings are NOT their main marketing sites…but instead THEIR BLOG SITES!!!

A New Social and Business Trend!
A Blog is Free and Easy to create!
It blows me away as to how EASY it is to create a blog. And if you are involved int the Home Seller Assist program created by John Alexander, you should have one up like this one. In the past the ONLY way to get a website up and running was to employ the resources of a hosting service provider, as well as acquiring a marketable domain name.
Every website needs space, just like every file needs space on your computer’s hard drive. The difference is while you are the only person accessing your file on your hard drive, a hosting company must provide the space for your website to be seen and accessed by any person around the world 24 hours a day,7 days a week, 365 days a year!
Think of a hosting company as a parking lot, with different websites ‘parked’ in the different parking spaces. Of course, you are paying for the use of the ‘parking space’ on a monthly basis.
