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?

HERE IS YOUR SEED, GO PLANT IT INTO THE HEARTS OF EVERYONE YOU MEET. SHOW YOUR PASSION FOR LIFE. IT’S NEVER TO LATE TO SHINE.

POUR OUT YOUR LIFE INTO THOSE AROUND YOU

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.

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?

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.

PREPARATION FOR PURPOSE

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

Impossible, Possible, Attitude, Positive

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.

I will be all God has called me to be. I will continue to learn, make mistakes and sometimes fail. I will have GREAT SUCCESS at the end of the day.

How To Get The Right People To Open Your Email

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Funnels- Why Use Them

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker. What a topic to cover. The FUNNEL. How to use them and why you use them. How to create them, how to advertise them, and get the best results possible.

A funnel is the set of steps a visitor needs to go through before they can reach the conversion. Maybe you want them to make a purchase, sign up, or fill out a form. When someone does something you want them to do, it’s known as a conversion. The visitor converts from browsing to taking the action you want them to take.

Why is the set of steps to conversion called a “funnel”? Because at the beginning of the process, there are a lot of people who take the first step. Then, as the people continue along and take the next steps, some of them drop out, and the size of the crowd thins or narrows.

The top of the funnel is where everyone goes in. They see your lead capture page and fill out the form. The ones interested go on to the next step. They end up on your Thank You page. You need a new audience to have eyes on your funnel, daily. Keep track of how people move through your funnel. You aren’t limited to using your funnel strictly for signing up and/or purchasing. You can put funnels all over your website to see how visitors move through a specific website flow. Figure out what your goals are and what you want visitors to do on your site, and you can create a funnel for it. Once you have the data, you’ll be able to see where roadblocks are and optimize your funnel.

A lot of marketers offer freebies- a news letter- 3 day mastermind webinar- Ebook, or a host of other information one might be interested in.

How to use your Network Marketing Funnel-Okay… this is the question that lots of people have. “I’ve got a funnel, but how do I get it out there and how do I use it?” Well, from now on, anytime you do a social media post or you do any videos on YouTube, Facebook lives, Instagram lives, whatever it is, your call to action should not be for people to go buy your stuff. It should always be, “Hey, if you’re interested in knowing what the ebook offers, go to this link and put your name and email and you’ll immediately get the ebook for free.”

You’re going to be promoting your your free value that you’re dedicated to bringing to the marketplace before trying to sell stuff.

Your sales will come as a result and they’re going to be on the back end inside of your funnel. When you’re out on social media you’re now giving value and your leading people into your funnel and you’re using your funnel as your call to action.

No matter what business you’re in, if you need to attract clients or prospects and make sales, offer FREE TRAINING. It will be the best decision you will make.

A BIG THANK YOU

Hello Everyone, This is your gear jamming, CB talking, Load moving, Michael The Traveling Trucker. What a joy it has been to build my online business. I say thank you to a number of people Janet, Blain, Jon, Rob, and all the members from all these groups, who comment on my blogs. These folks have guided me to expand my horizon, challenged me to learn, encouraged me to show up daily. All these people are instructing me on their tricks of the trade.

I’m learning about building a resource page. It was said “K.I.S.S”. Kept It Simple Silly. I have had to visit other sites to determine what to put on my resource page to make it look right, plus putting links to each picture. For some, this is childs play. I like it but a little slow getting it done.

I was asked if I checked my CTRs and ROIs on my advertising. I said the money was a little tight for the purchase of a solo ad. I would have to do some side work. Today I went to Hits Connect and the results weren’t that good. I will have to adjust how I’m doing my rotators and campaigns. At this point, I haven’t got a good grasp on keeping up with CTR and ROI’s.

Solo ads are fun. Looking at all the sellers at Udimi. I was taught early what to look for and to whom to stay away from.

From Eliana over at CTP:

Staying the course, from driving to the internet definitely has it’s challenges. I have to make myself get things done, when the opportunity presents it’s self.

FREE FREE FREE

When you see the word FREE- what comes to mind? Be honest, what’s the catch, right? Free sandwich with the purchase of chips and a drink. Free oil change after 4th oil change. Buy 3 tires get 4th free. See the pattern. Your free is costing you something, which does bring value to you.

Discover Inside that Internet Marketing is Amazingly Easy When You Are Part of a Community Who Cares. There are businesses that give away free Ebooks to build their list and promote their offers. CLB was a rebrandable ebook to start.

Your list is your main FOCUS. PAY ATTENTION TO HOW YOU CREATE THAT LIST. The biggest secret isn’t that you need a huge number of people on the list, but that you want a better conversion of subscribers to customers. You can do this by paying attention to how you are creating the list, how you are marketing it, and what is actually happening when you send out an offer. Here are some basic things you should know about a responsive mailing list.

Single opt-ins can be fooled. Learn how to use a double opt-in strategy to build a better list. Targeted demographics are better than niches. Demographics tell you the reasons why people buy, while niches just assume everyone on your list is interested. Automate what you can. Learning about the technologies and tools available can save you valuable time and increase your bottom line.

People do have a price. It’s up to you to figure out what that price is. They may be willing to subscribe, for a free short report, enter a contest, or savings on a product they like. ORGANIC is better. Organic lists are generally more responsive than a list created by buying email addresses. You will want to focus on getting up close and personal with your prospective buyers, instead of just assuming that they want to buy your products because they signed up to your list. Here are some tools to think about. The Double opt-in list, Check open rates, Autoresponders, Services. You need to create teaser emails that will keep people interested in your product until it is complete or ready for release without giving away too much about the product. Come check out TL2Ivm for the best deals on earning commissions. $500.00 is a great way to start .

Creating effective headlines and subject lines is really not all that difficult.
Studies show that emails with catchy headlines are far more likely to get
opened than those that do not. Research has shown that people have to see an
advertisement several times before they actually make the decision to buy.
