Why Tracking Is Important?

Hello Everyone, We know where you are, No It’s not the MATRIX.

Why, it’s because of tracking.

This is Michael The Traveling Trucker.

I have tracking on my truck and trailer. My employer can look at his computer and see if my trailer reefer unit is running, what is the location, how long I have been there.

In business, you need to track your links to see what is working and what is not. Your main focus, is getting your tracking code and putting it on your landing page. Then you test it to make sure it is working properly.

I use Hits Connect to track all my links, from viral mailers, traffic exchanges, to the businesses I promote. Each one has it’s own tracking code.

Janet Legere does a great job explaining tracking. Watch Video NOW

Start Tracking Your Sites, Splash Pages, and Affiliate Links

HitsConnect’s ad tracking technology will count the traffic your ads are receiving from each advertising source, so you can ensure you’re receiving the impressions you’ve paid for.

Hits Connect Pro takes this to the next level with conversion tracking. This technology works with thousands of sites and affiliate programs to show you which advertising services are giving you the best results.

In addition to knowing which advertising sources are giving you the best results, you also need to know which of your ads are getting the most conversions.

Tiny things such as colors and headlines can make the difference that turns a visitor into a buyer.

You need to have at least 3 headlines when working with traffic mailers. You can have the best ad copy, but if your headline doesn’t catch peoples attention, they will never open you ad. Make sense?

How many of you are tracking your results? Do you know what the ad costs? How many subscribers you have from that ad? What is your profit?

As you can see, everything is connected to everything you do. Take the time to track your results and you will know what works best and how to promote it.

Questions, Font, Who, What, How, Why

At the TOP of my blog, you will see a resource page. Take a look at my recommendations, then get back with me. I would love the opportunity to share life with you.

Tell me the one thing HOLDING YOU back? Time, money, no experience?

I have been there on all three. I’m a 61-year-old trucker. Been driving all across the USA for 27 years. I wanted to have a laptop lifestyle. I didn’t have a clue where to start. I just did the hit and miss thing at first.

Feedback, Confirming, Businessmen, Group

I heard, sling enough mud at the wall and some will stick. I saw some people on the internet, who were operating their own businesses. I watched, learned(quietly), then said to myself,” I WANT WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. IF THEY CAN DO IT THERE IS HOPE FOR ME”.

I found a good fit-(Look to resource page). I began my journey almost 1 year ago. I love writing my blog. Learning how to build lead capture and thank you pages. I’m am not afraid of the phone (calling prospects). I am having small amounts of SUCCESS, which will lead to MASSIVE SUCCESS.

I want you to look at the resource page, NOW. Go ahead I’ll wait. Glad you made it back. HOW CAN I SERVE YOU TODAY? This is my sharing with YOU. I hope you get encouraged to take the 1st step and never look back. Ask questions, we have the answers. We are a FAMILY here. COME BE A PART.

You already know how to show up for work daily, right? Show up here and learn from some of the best marketers. They will help you to money in your pocket.

I know from experience, they have done it with me, by showing me the WAY.

COME SHARE WITH ME

IT’S BEEN HOW LONG ?

Confused, Hands, Up, Unsure, Perplexed

On the black sea highway, I find myself wondering HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE? Have You felt that way?

I’m your trucking host with the most, Michael the Traveling Trucker.

We hear” ARE WE THERE YET?” Most of the time the answer is NO, and we become impatient, dissatisfied, and rebellious, for it takes too long for things to happen.

I set up a new lead capture page, sent it out, and got immediate results. The contact was made and we had a good conversation. My prospect came to the Telegraph room and RobG took over. Through his leadership, an upgrade was made.

He shared with me, my prospect has been a part of the business since 2010 but had not logged in since 2015. How’s that for the long term? A 5-year HIATUS.

Keys, Open Locks, Security, Unlock

As ENTREPRENEURS, we never know which key will unlock the door for people to walk through, coming into our business world.

I heard Jon Olson say, He bought some crypto and forgot about it for years. Then he talked with a friend and was told the crypto he had was huge.

Strive to do your best each day. People you talk to might not be ready today, so you move on. They stay silent in the background, always watching. Then time goes by. When the time is right and they contact you, saying they are ready.

Most of the people aren’t ready, just looking they say. NEVER COUNT ANYONE OUT. Timing is everything, so be prepared to wait. Work with those that want what you have.

Man, Happy, Confused, In Love, People

Why waiting is beneficial and has beneficial factors. Priorities become clear. It produces Productive habits.

Tolerance and empathy helps people to wait and is a great humbler. A humble person is aware of the struggles of others and can empathize with their troubles. In short, waiting can make you a better person.

Labyrinth, Confusion, Confused, Way

Once you bend your head around the fact that waiting is your friend, and not your enemy, some important things will shift in your head.

Instead of being frustrated by delays, you can be grateful for them, make the most of each one and soar through your time of waiting.

On the other side of it, you will see how much has been grown in your character even though it felt like nothing was happening at the time. Now that is something to be grateful for.

Waiting Is A Good Thing

Please watch this video, it’s my fun time on Camera.

What a way to start the day. Over 5 million dollars. This is the value of a painting sold at auction for “Portrait of Juan De Pareja”. The value of art is determined by the QUALITY of the work, by who the ARTIST is, and by what the ART says.

This is a great day for another life changing adventure with Michael The Traveling Trucker.

You were created as a MASTER PIECE by the greatest and most loving artist of all, GOD.

You are more valuable than any painting or machine that man has made.

I pray you just “BELIEVE”. If you don’t , let me believe for you, hold your hand, show you a small glimpse of what God has given you. This is a story of a Father who loves you so much.

A lot of people don’t believe, and that’s ok. You choose today, LIFE or DEATH?

Most will choose LIFE, so that tells me you really want something more and YOU have every right to have it.

So where do you start, where else but at the beginning. You determine where the story begins and ends, for it is YOUR adventure.

You are not just a FACE in the CROWD. You have a loving purpose, so show your best side. It’s also ok to show your bad side because we all have a good and bad side. That makes you real and human.

What do you want to do today in your life story? Are you writing your life book? Composing your life song? Dancing your life dance? Painting your life portrait?

FROM WEBINAR TO RESOURCE PAGE

I truly love the online journey. Seeing new sites, visiting new posts, play with the buttons and gadgets. Life don’t get no better than this, or does it?

Hello and Welcome to giddy up and go with Michael The Traveling Trucker.

I attended my weekly Thursday webinar presented by my mentor Janet Legere. It was so right up my alley. Creating a resource page and putting it on my blog.

I put my primary business, which is CLB Learning. I put a brief description of what CLB Learning is with a banner ad.

Then I went on to The Conversion Pros. I also did a brief description, then add a banner add.

I finished with Udimi Solo ads, giving a brief description, followed by banner ad.

I was shown to publish my page. Then taken to the CLB word press blog. I then hovered my mouse over the appearance on the left side. From there I went to menu. When the page came up below the Add menu items was pages. Resource was the first one. I checked the box next to it.

Then I went down to add to menu. Then hit the save button. BAM, Done. Now it is on my blog page at the top. I can direct people to the resource page while keeping my blog uncluttered with too many programs I am promoting.

It Rally Is EASY

P.S. Look at the top of my page and you will see Resource. click on it for my Recommendations.

THE FUTURE AND THE UNKNOWN

Welcome all my CB talking, business gear jamming, network relocators. This is Michael The Traveling Trucker.

Yesterday is GONE, TOMORROW is not promised. That leaves TODAY. As our minds explore the possibilities of our future, do we pursue the unknown with fear or rise up in FAITH?

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

Being a trucker, I am quite familiar with the unknown. I get dispatched to places I have never been to before. Yes, I have my trucker GPS and yes it gets me to where I need to go, most of the time.

I have had a road closed and have had to find another way around, and the GPS is not helpful. It wants to put me on a car route. Does fear rise up or faith rise up?

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

Most outside people will never understand what you are trying to do. Their opinions and attitudes will NEVER define who YOU ARE. Choose today, to quit listening to the TOXIC people.

In your mind’s eye, WHAT DOES YOUR FUTURE LOOK LIKE? Do you hold the world in your hands? Do you look at the problems or look for the answers?

What books are you reading? Who are you listening to, so your business will GROW? What do you flood your mind with on a daily basis?

It’s time to rise up. Tell your SPIRIT, Today Is My Day. I will not look back, back up, or give in. The business highway is before me. It’s time for a mind-blowing road trip. Buckle up, switch gears, and burn rubber.

Michael’s favorite saying,” You have two choices when you wake up in the morning, be happy or sad. There are enough sad people in the world without me being one.

RISE UP IN FAITH

PREPARATION FOR PURPOSE

What a ride this has been. Greetings and salutations from Michael The Traveling Trucker.

Looking back is always perfect vision. It’s easy to look at where we have been and realize what choices we should have made or paths we should have taken.

It’s easy to miss the lessons of life that God is teaching us through constant challenges. Within the context of those challenges, we find valuable life lessons that must be learned.

So do you show up daily? Do you do your best for this day? Today is all you have, so let us DREAM BIG, TAKE ACTION and FOLLOW UP and FOLLOW THROUGH.

What is your biggest challenge? Mine is connecting to people. Being a driver, I have drive days that keep me driving all day and part of the night. I don’t get the opportunities as often as I like for my phone calls, texts and emails. I will do my best today. I will show up. I will make those calls.

Building a business is really a 2-5 year plan. You will have high’s and low’s. I see through observation of my leaders, they are consistent in all they do.

Here is a great interview with Rob Gehring, Hosted by Lisa M Gentile. Rob describes his daily routine. Click here to watch the video.

Describe your daily habits. What do you start with, and where do you end your day?

I start with my blog, Phone calls are next, with texts and emails second. I jump on the advertising wagon, shooting those arrows. I read and comment on different post, upvoting at every opportunity.

As we build our following, remember it’s all about PEOPLE. Be kind, lead with passion, love with a grateful spirit. Be willing to give your ALL. The reason I’m here is my mentors have shown such love, passion, and commitment to me. For that, I’m eternally grateful.

How To Get The Right People To Open Your Email

Email Us, Email, Us, Web, Internet

Welcome Saturday Truckerettes, This Is Your Host, Michael The Traveling Trucker.

I’ve been studying lately how to get the right people to open my emails. I have to say some of the info was eye opening and thought provoking.

Let me ask this question, What is your open rate? When you track and split test, what are your results?

The average email open rate is 21.33 percent. Keeping track of your results is vital. This shows what works and what doesn’t. If you don’t belong to Hits Connect, click here. This is a great site for tracking your results.

To get people to open your email, start with a benefit: People feel good when they know they will benefit from you, It will give people the incentive to open your email. Say something like: How to triple your social media following.

Email, Newsletter, Marketing, Online

When you create CURIOSITY, people are really tempted to open your email. Write something like: What Does reading have to do with success or what to do if some falls down?

USE NUMBERS: Users understand what’s in store for them when they click an article. It’s about clarity, helping them to manage their expectations. Example, Why 90% of marketers are doing it wrong?

Borrow Credibility: People love to know what well-known people think, give advice, or talk about how to solve a problem.

HERE IS A COOL SITE I FOUND:

The #1 Free Headline Analyzer

Write Headlines That Drive Traffic, Shares, And Search Results

https://coschedule.com/headline-analyzer

Here are some things to meditate on:

Test Different Email Subjects, Testing Different Times and Days Of Send, Testing Different Email Frequencies, Testing Different Sender Emails, Testing Different Email First Lines.

Tease the value and benefits of opening and reading the rest of the email. Make them fearful of missing out, make it impossible for them to resist the urge to delve a little further.

In closing, Will you share your secret email headlines with me? What your open rates are? I can always use all the help I can get. Leave me a comment now. I will respond back, to thank you.

How To Set Yourself Up For Success

Welcome Everyone. This is your HOST, Michael The Traveling Trucker.

Do you have a daily plan to start your day? Do you have a set routine, you follow each day? Do you set a certain amount of time for phone calls?

How much time for emails, follow ups and mentoring your people?

How you start your day will help or hinder you all through out the day.

Successful people, Millionaires, Billionaires have a strict code for their day. They set blocks of time for phone calls. They only do this one activity for that block of time.

They move on to the next activity, emails. Then go down the list, until they finish what they set out to do.

Goal Setting, Goal, Dart, Target

Do you set goals? Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly? Do you have a 5-year plan, 10-year plan? Do you do income-producing activities or just busywork?

The 1st thing is to set up your funnel. Do you know how to set up your lead capture page for your funnel? We can show you. Click Here, Then advertise, finally, follow up and follow through.

Checklist, Goals, Box, Notebook, Pen

This is my recommendation: Follow up, Stay positive, and Talk To The Right People. Make sure you ask qualifying questions, How much money on a monthly basis, do you want to earn? What would that amount do to your lifestyle? What type of budget do YOU have?

If people don’t have a budget or a small budget, it will be much harder to achieve the success they want. You can do it on a small budget, just plan it out in every detail, so you will begin to get the results you are looking for.

If people don’t have a budget or unwilling to get a budget- I know this sounds harsh, but move on. These people will drain your time and energy.

You’re sitting at home, in front of your computer. You have reached a point where you want to earn some additional income. You would love some relief from the bills and not having enough of the daily things in life. You have penny pitched enough. So begins your delve into internet marketing. You look around, not sure what you are looking for. You see an ad like this: So you click, the click here now button.

Then it takes you to the New Member Registration page. Some fill it out while others who are skeptical go right on by. Some forms ask for your name, email, and phone number. At the bottom of the form, it says, if you don’t want to leave a number, place the number 5 in the box. This is where I don’t understand, why do people put a fake number in? If you don’t want the call back place the number 5 in the box. We respect your privacy. As someone building a business, this gives me false hope. When I see a number, I call it, then you hear, this phone number is no longer in service, mailbox full can’t except any new messages, or my favorite error 57, which means no number exists.
