Hello Everyone. This Is Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today’s adventure: I Came, I Saw, I Conquered. YOUR BEST TECHNIQUES OF FOLLOW UP. Following up with potential customers should be a high-priority component of any marketing strategy.

Make Time to Follow Up-Creating a follow-up schedule–complete with notifications–keeps the process efficient and effective. A follow-up schedule is just a guideline for you. Your prospects are going to have ideas of their own, and they’ll buy when they’re ready. For those READY, click here

Treat Potential Customers With Respect. Do your homework and have your questions ready, but also come prepared to listen. I see you went to my website because you were looking for something. I would like like to ask a few questions, would that be alright? Did you watch the video after you filled in the form? What kind of money were you looking to earn? When we make that happen for you, what will that mean to your life? When you listen to their answer, Tell them, We call this the “WHY” in business. The reason we get up early in the morning and stay up late at night. This is a business I Use To Help Me Get To My Why, click here . Do you work outside the home? Do you like what you do? Have you looked at Internet Marketing? Do you own a computer? I think you get the POINT. YOU do what feels right for you and your customers.

Provide Valuable Content. Your prospects are busy, and not every follow-up requires a direct conversation. You want to add value, not stress and aggravation. Content marketing not only allows you to bridge the gap with value during the in-between times, but it also allows you to expand your potential touch points. What You share should always be relevant to your prospects and your business. It shouldn’t be a non-stop hard sell.

Meet People Where They Are. If your customer is a phone person, give them a call. Maybe they’re social media focused and you follow up via Facebook or LinkedIn. And everyone can (and should!) be sent emails to communicate.

Respond Quickly. This means reaching out quickly with a response that doesn’t feel canned or empty.

By specifically focusing on improving your contact rate and your meeting rate, you can easily increase the yield of opportunities from your existing lead flow.

The Impact of Making Another Call. People don’t always pick up on the first try and sometimes it takes multiple calls to make contact. So how many calls should you make before giving up? From the chart below, leads contacted after the 6th call are 45% less likely to convert than leads contacted prior to that point. The goal is to stay in front of prospects in a way that creates value rather than annoyance. Time Your Follow up For Maximum Impact. Some days of the week and times of the day are simply better for making sure you connect with prospects.

Best Day To Call VS Email and Best Time To Call VS Email is, Wednesday and Thursday come out on top for both open rates and phone contact rates. Thursday is 26% better for email open rates than the worst weekday, Monday. Thursday is 49% better for phone contact rates than the worst weekday, Tuesday. REMEMBER TO ALWAYS, Track ACTUAL Contact Attempts.

How to Write Catchy Titles In Minutes

Hello Everyone. This Is Michael The Traveling Trucker. 5 Easy Tricks To Write Catchy Headlines. You need to get your audience hooked! Promise that you are going to deliver value. Make sure you write titles and subheadings that tell the reader why they need to invest time reading your content. Catchy headlines can make or break your content.

Mention: https://www.dreamgrow.com/seven-easy-tricks-to-write-catchy-headlines/

Great headlines give you an edge and convince your audience to read and respond to your copy. People will share your post without reading if the headline is catchy. Keep It Short, Simple, and to the point. The headline should answer your audience’s question “what’s in it for me.”

Mention: https://www.pinterest.com/pennguins/catchy-titles-for-scrapbooking/

Be Clear About Your Main Benefit. Your headline is an ad for your content that has to convince the audience that your content has the answers they are looking for. You can test different benefits to find out what works best.

Announce Exciting News (News Your Audience Cares About) People do care about the things that are important to them. Let them know that there is something new that makes a difference in their lives.

Put Questions in the Headline. The question in the headline should be something that your audience wants to know, if not you will use them. The question doesn’t always have to be in the form of the question. You can just imply or hint at it, like: Do You Want to Know the Top 5 Mistakes Most Bloggers Make? What to Do with Your Dog on a Rainy Day? How to lose belly fat in 1 night with this diet. How to lose belly fat fast. You must learn to respect your readers’ experience. So, be accurate and fulfill your audiences’ expectations.

Come up with a working Title. The work of crafting catchy headlines and titles start with a rough draft – your working title. For instance, a topic might be about “raising healthy kids.” Best Recipes for a Healthy Dinner that your Kid will love to Gobble Up, A Complete Guide to Promoting your Child’s Social, Emotional, and Behavioral Well-Being. These are great example of Working Titles.

Be accurate – Add bracketed clarification

A catchy headline is all about setting clear expectations for your readers. Here are some more examples, “Internet Ad Spend will Surpass TV Ad Spend [New Report]” Tips for making your headlines sound desirable: Have fun with alliteration: “Foolproof Formula.” Use strong words: Here are a few: “Brilliant” or “Powerful”, Use emotional adjectives: Examples in your headline – fun, free, strange, incredible, essential, absolute, effortless, etc. Use unique rationale: secrets, tricks, reasons, ideas, facts, lessons, ways, principles, etc. Make it visual: Consider including the word “photo(s)” in your headline. A study conducted revealed that headlines with the word “photo(s) performed 37% better than headlines that did not feature this word. Include “who”: Headlines with the word “who” generated 22% better CTR than headlines without it.

State the ‘Big’ Benefit: So, make sure to reflect it in the headline of your blog post. The headline should motivate them to click and read.

Use Number (Odd Number) in your Headline

Studies have shown that headlines with numbers generate more clicks than headlines without it. Numbered Headlines simply work with readers. Numbered Headlines get more clicks than posts without it. Numbers make the headline much more enticing.

Turning Defeat Into Victory

Hello Everyone. This Is Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today’s Adventure is: Victory Mindset, When we learned there is no failure or mistake that cannot be remedied, the better off you will be. Defeat is part of life. No one made it to the top of any industry by not failing. It’s hard to remember but sometimes when you’re down and defeated, it’s only temporary. Everything comes and goes, nothing is permanent, especially defeat.

So how do you overcome defeat? Silence Your Inner Critic. These voices are worrying doubts that will not help you succeed. If you don’t learn how to monitor and control the voices and negative thoughts, you’ll never succeed. Counteract the negativity by surrounding yourself with positivity. Listen to motivational speeches, read affirmations to yourself, be proud of your wins, and listen when they get loud. One of the best books I have read this year is Janet Legere’s ” Get Stuck On Happy“. Everyone should get this book.

Remember Why You Started. Each time you feel defeated, it’s on you to go deep within yourself and find the passion to keep going. You have to focus on why you started whatever it is in the first place.

Every obstacle is a reminder to go back and reignite that spark when you first began your journey. Keep your why the top of mind so you can stay focused and keep pushing forward!

Remember as Thomas Edison said, “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is to try just one more time.” Keep going, keep believing, and make 2020 the year you get everything you ever wanted. Failure can only Break you if you Let it.

DON’T GO IT ALONE

Hello Everyone, This Is Michael The Traveling Trucker. Tuesday’s adventure is DON’T do it by yourself. Question: If you look at the animal population, why do they travel in herds, packs, pods, gaggle, and so on. It’s in their DNA. Now look at people, we have clubs we join, clubs we go out to, social media, sporting events, fairs, amusement parks….. WE WANT TO BE AROUND PEOPLE OR HAVE THEM NOTICE US.

Now, look at BUSINESS….Following simple steps, we build an audience, which becomes a group, which becomes a big FAMILY. If you are truly reading this, and you are looking to build an online business, I WANT TO HELP YOU. We all need help, in the beginning, someone to guide us, show us how to build the strongest business, that will last for generations.

Here on my blogs, Michael The Traveling Trucker, I promote 2 business models. Contact List Builder and Traffic Leads 2 Income Viral Mailer. I am being guided by 2 people who are leaders in their fields. They are teaching, 1st- build your list. For this to happen, you have to be a part of business yourself so you can promote what you are doing. Putting offers-(Lead capture pages), blogging, out there where others looking can see them and respond.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/group/

We are all here to work together, never alone. We encourage each other, correct each other when needed. A correction is a positive act when done right and with love. There are ways to do business right and wrong. When done incorrectly, you can damage yourself and others, losing out on time, money, and friendship.

Working with others is the key to building any business. Set your daily, weekly, monthly, yearly goals. Next, send them to your mentor or coach. Have them walk you through each aspect to get a clear picture of where you want to go, and the tools you need to get there. As members come into your business, walk them through the process, so we all stay close and build it right. People have ideas so listen carefully to what they said, then look to see if it has merit.

Being a master of one or a jack-of-all-trades in today’s world does not bring about success if you are unable to work as part of a team. The importance of teamwork cannot be stressed enough!

I LOVE this :

Leaders that develop great teams around them have two things that they do well: They have a lot of emotional intelligence and are able to provide a clear vision for the team. I believe this with my whole heart. Janet Legere and Rob Gehring are two of the leaders I look to. They help provide and point me in the right direction to get things done on a daily basis, to build my business.

Let Me Help You, READER. Together we can and will build a DYNASTY. Yes I know we each have a separate business, but always the bigger picture-TEAM.

People, Friends, Together, Happy, Child

A teamwork environment promotes an atmosphere that fosters friendship and loyalty. These close-knit relationships motivate partners in parallel and align them to work harder, cooperate and be supportive of one another.

Proofreading

Hello Everyone, This Is Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today’s avdenture is PROOFREADING your work. Yes, before you post your blog, read your work, then re-read again.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/child%20reading/

What Do People Use to Read?

These are some of the sites out there, where they provide a service to check your grammar. Some cost and some are free.

The Best for me Grammarly, Writesmartly, Papertrue, Sribendi, kensaq, and you can look for even more.

Adult Education, Write, Knowledge, Power

Mention: https://www.scribbr.com/language-rules/sentence-structure/

Proofreading means carefully checking for errors in a text before it is published or shared. It is the very last stage of the writing process when you fix minor spelling and punctuation mistakes, typos, formatting issues, and inconsistencies.

Proofreading is essential for any text that will be shared with an audience, whether it’s an academic paper, a job application, an online article, or a print flyer. Depending on your skills and budget, you can choose to proofread the text yourself or to hire a professional.

Sentence structure determines how the different parts of a sentence are put together, from its punctuation to the ordering of its words. As well as following basic word order rules, there are many other things you have to consider to write correctly and clearly structured sentences.

There are two especially common sentence construction mistakes:

  1. Run-on sentences: incorrect punctuation used to join different parts of a sentence
  2. Sentence fragments: missing necessary components to form a full grammatically correct sentence

Sentence structure is not just a matter of grammar, but also of style and flow. Strong academic writing uses a variety of sentence lengths and structures. It’s important to avoid overly long sentences that can be confusing for readers, but too many very short sentences can make your text feel choppy and disjointed.

Here are things to look for in your writing: Punctuation, Capitalization, Sentence structure, Verbs, Word choice, Articles, Prepositions, Pronouns, Conjunctions.

Commonly confused words

Some words are commonly confused or misused, including this/thatwhich/thatwho/whomaffect/effect

DEVELOPMENT

Self-Development vs Shelf-Development….


Do you know the difference?

Shelf-development occurs when you buy all the latest books, videos, trainings that have lots of good learning in them….and you leave them unopened.  They sound great. The look great. And…they probably are great, but….you don’t get into them.

Self-development means that you have gone through those great resources and have found “nuggets” you can use to begin to build an online business.

If you are just starting to look for ways to earn income from home online, I applaud you EVEN MORE!

New Year'S Eve, Fireworks, Beacon

You need to gather information about different ways to earn and select the one that fits best for you. When you are learning to earn online, don’t wait to be “perfect” before you start.  That won’t work in your favor. Learn as you go. Take the graduated steps to find the procedures that work the best for you and your audience and use those. Then add on. You don’t need tech-savvy, computer wizardry, or business training.  You are in a “family” of affiliates doing just as you are and we help each other. 

Where do you want to be a month from now…?????? Still, struggling with your JOB and boss? Wondering if you have a full job to go back to? Wondering if your financial situation will ever improve? What about your vacation/travel plans?
