Want to know how to make marketing simple and make it work for you to grow your business that no one tells you?

Grab a pen and some paper and jot down this important date. January 29th, 2009. I’ll tell you why in a second.

Over the years I’ve personally helped hundreds of entrepreneurs and business owners increase their sales by huge amounts.

The secret?

4 Steps to Higher Profits This Year

By Charlie Cook | January 20, 2009

I just got off the phone with one of my clients, Carlos from Chile.

Here’s what he said: “Charlie I followed your suggestions for writing and sending out my newsletter to generate new business. I couldn’t believe what happened next. We got 25 responses and set up 11 prospect meetings in 2 days since the email went out. I couldn’t believe it.”

The first step to increasing your profits in the next 12 months is to find out how to:

* Attract more prospects,
* Clarify the value of your products and services,
* Gain your prospects’ confidence,
* Motivate your prospects to buy more and buy today.

As Carlos discovered, it’s not that hard to position yourself for windfall profits in your business. The key is knowing what works and taking action. Carlos had been thinking of sending out a newsletter for over a year but didn’t know what to say in it that would make his prospects open it, read it and contact him.

Like Carlos did you can easily discover the answer and within weeks be eating your competition’s lunch. Enjoy.

To make it easier for you, I’ve created the lowest cost way to access the strategies you need to maximize your profits in less time this year. I’m in the process of putting together a Mastermind VIP group to show you exactly what works and how to do it.

Already some of you emailed to find out more. When Jessica told me how many email requests we’d received – I couldn’t believe it.

This shows me you really are serious about beating the gloomy sounding economy this year.

I was thinking that maybe 30-40 people might be interested but I was wrong!

So far over 274 people have contacted me asking to get on the VIP list for an Insider’s Marketing Mastermind program. All this within mere days of just mentioning the idea. And the requests for more info just keep coming.

I’m still working out the details but given your enthusiasm and interest I’m committed to making this work for those of you.

Given the numbers of people who are interested, it looks like we’re looking at an application process. While I could just go ahead and set up multiple groups to cover the demand, I made a decision to only open up one this quarter, to make sure the people that make it in get what they need.

But after reviewing some of your requests it seems pretty obvious you’d be interested. So if you want me to get this thing off the drawing board – here’s what I want you to do.

If you’re really serious about being part of an elite Mastermind group with private access to me and you haven’t done so yet,

How To Achieve a Breakthrough This Year

By Charlie Cook | January 19, 2009

Are you ready to make this a blockbuster year?

I’ve been getting a lot of email from people wanting to know how to get into my new Mastermind VIP Group that will launch in just a few days.

If you missed it, the URL to get early access to apply is >>

Like you, they all want to know, “How will it benefit me and my business?”

If you’ve been in business for a year you know that clients and money don’t just drop out of the sky, particularly in a down economy.

You know that you need an effective marketing strategy to attract clients and earn more. You know that you need to have a way to attract clients, a way to clarify the value of your products and services, a way to get clients to trust you and a way to close the sale.

And you may even know that with an effective follow-up strategy you can increase your profits by 300% or more.

You also know it can be tough trying to go it alone. You wear many hats during the course of your day. But what if I could share proven ways to bring your success closer to reality and faster too?

A major benefit to you is, you will be part of an elite group which is greater than the sum of its parts. Having access to many minds makes it easier for you to win. You’ll have the benefit of receiving decades of proven in-the-trenches strategies which have worked not only for me, but for other group members as well.

You are not alone. Think of it as having your own private think tank of like-minded people you can bounce your business ideas off of. All with out incurring the cost of hiring outside consultants or traveling to seminars. Your time will be well-spent focusing on your business.

And of course I’ll be there to give you a kick in the pants if you need it to get going. In other words you will be held accountable for reaching your goals.

My Mastermind VIP Group offers you the best chance of success in reaching your goals in the shortest time possible. And making a nice profit along the way.

I’ve got news for you, whether you realize it or not-it’s crunch time. This is the year where you either make it or break it. You don’t have to take my word for it. Just look around. Maybe your business is already feeling the pinch.

It’s been said “When the going gets tough the tough get going”.

Do you think you have what it takes to ride out the coming storm by yourself? If you do then good luck. I hope you make it.

But if you’re ready to ride a tidal wave of prosperity within the security of an elite group of marketing savvy entrepreneurs-led by yours truly-then there is only one thing you can do.

Again, if you haven’t signed up for early access to apply start here >>

A Most Unusual & Odd Request from Charlie

By Charlie Cook | December 17, 2008

What’s one of the biggest challenges in small business marketing?

It’s getting your prospect’s attention. If they don’t know you exist, much less know how you can help them, you’re going to have a tough time closing sales and making more money.

How do you get your prospects’ attention when they’re overwhelmed by advertising messages and have conditioned themselves to tune them out?

Use INTERRUPTION marketing!

Break into your prospects’ train of thought. Get them to switch from whatever they were working on or pondering to thinking about how much you could help them. Interruption Marketing is the conversation starter.

What is interruption marketing?

It’s the headline, the bold graphic, the creative layout, the audio, etc you use to grab your prospects’ attention so you can have a conversation with them.

“A Most Unusual & Odd request from Charlie”

In order to get you to open this post, I used a headline to pique your curiosity. If you want your prospects and clients to open your emails, you need to do the same. Use a subject line that makes them stop what they are doing and open your email.

Want to see another example of Interruption Marketing?
See this >>

The Purpose
The purpose of interruption marketing is to distract your prospect from what they were thinking and then to capitalize on the opportunity by telling them what to do next. And you’ve only got a second to move them from a second of attention to having a conversation, even if its a virtual one, similar to what you and I are doing now.

What’s the risk of using Interruption Marketing?
You can easily go too far and turn off some of your prospects.

What’s the even greater risk of not using Interruption Marketing?
No one pays attention to your marketing and you go out of business.

Before you use Interruption Marketing, understand the difference between giving your prospects’ a choice and just plain annoying them. One leads to a possible sale, the other to a lost customer.

You want your interruption to leave your prospect feeling positive about your products and services. Sales calls during dinner and the online ads that jump up and cover your emails are not positive experiences.

Want to know what one of the best ways to get peoples’ attention is?

Ask a QUESTION.

At the top of the homepage for MarketingForSuccess there’s a pertinent question in large, bold type at the top of the page. Why? Because when people read a question, their natural inclination is to stop what they are doing and try and answer it.

Isn’t that what you do?

But… I can hear my wife saying it and maybe you’re thinking it, too, “Isn’t interruption marketing ugly, often garish and hard sell?”

You’re right! A lot of interruption marketing is done in poor taste and doesn’t work. But when it’s done well, it’s original, clever and it keeps your attention.

If your marketing is plain vanilla, no one will ever read it. If it’s garish or simply badly done, it won’t be taken seriously. Depending on your target market, smack dab in the middle is where the money is.

What’s my Most Unusual & Odd Request?
Take a look at this page and tell me now what you think >>
I bet you can’t look at the image at the top of the page without stopping to watch the dancing image. It gets your attention. Is it too much or on target?

My wife thinks it’s totally inane and annoying. A graphic designer, she hates animated kitschy things like this. And while I wouldn’t call it great art nor would I use this approach on every sales page, it’s been a huge sales success.

What do you think >>

If you already saw this page and joined my Monthly Marketing Mentoring Program, you’ll be having a great Christmas. You’ll be opening up my gift box with the huge bonus I sent you. And each month you’ll be hearing from the most successful marketers and sales people in the country, including people like Denny Hutch.

Denny is a veteran of direct marketing and can explain to you better than almost anyone exactly how to use interruption marketing to increase your sales and profits.

You haven’t joined YET?

4 More Low-Cost Marketing Tactics To Maximize Small Business Sales!

By Charlie Cook | December 3, 2008

Just one month left and we’re in the midst of the holiday shopping season. Are you on track to make your revenue goals? Should you just sit back and wait for 2009 so you can get a fresh start?

Regardless of how you did the rest of the year, whether you’re on track to make 2008 your best year ever or you’re sales stagnated, don’t quit yet. December can still be your best month.

The days are counting down, with less than 30 left in the year. NOW is the perfect time to apply these last-minute holiday marketing strategies to end the year on a high note.

Time is running out… don’t procrastinate, take action today!

You’ve got just a few weeks left to achieve your small business marketing goals for this year, don’t let them slide by and wish later you’d done something to maximize your profits.

Apply these 4 low-cost and no-cost small business marketing strategies TODAY!

Strategy #1: “Target Your Sales Copy to What’s On People’s Minds”

Most people are thinking about giving and wondering two things:

* What would make a great gift for my son or daughter,
* What would make a great gift for my spouse,
* What would make a great gift for my father or mother in-law.

… and they’re wondering

* What should I put on my own holiday list,
* What gift should I give myself this year, Yes, a lot of people, while out buying gifts for others, buy gifts for themselves too!

You get the idea. Don’t assume people know what they want to buy. I’m often at a total loss myself as to what to buy for my 22 year-old son. So whether you sell to businesses or direct to consumers, help them out with your sales copy by targeting the questions that are on your customers’ minds at this time of year.

Strategy #2: “Use the End of The Year To Up-Sell & Cross-Sell Clients”

December 31st marks the end of 2008 and while it’s just a day on the calendar, it has a strong emotional effect on your prospect’s and clients. People see it as a clear ending and Jan 1st as a new beginning.

At the end of December people tend to reflect a little bit on their past performance and on their aspirations for the coming year. This is the perfect time to tap into their psyche and get clients to review their needs, what worked and didn’t work, and what they’d like to do better next year.

Whether you sell consulting services, or flat screen TVS, the end of the year is an ideal time to cross-sell and up-sell your products and services.

Strategy #3: “Strengthen Your Relationships with Prospects and Clients”

Your primary small business competitive advantage is the number and strength of your relationships with prospects and clients. Use this time to show your appreciation to them. How?

* Tell them. Thank them for their business and loyalty. Gifts are nice but ultimately it’s the thought that counts. Make sure to let them know you value their business and enjoy working with them.

Unless you’re the only source for a product or service clients can always find someone else to buy from. The best way to prevent this is to maintain a strong relationship and this starts with saying thank you.

* Send your most valued clients a gift, but not just any gift. For years I had an investment advisor who each Christmas sent me something from Tiffany’s that cost hundreds of dollars. As you may know by now, I’m not a Tiffany’s kind of guy and ended up returning almost every one of these to the store.

The key is to give something that your client would appreciate. It’s hard to lose with food. In my case I would have been much more impressed if my investment advisor had sent me something that was 25% as less expensive like a lift ticket or ski lesson at my favorite ski resort.

Strategy #4: “Offer Special Deals For A Limited Time Only”

The end of the year is fast approaching and everyone likes a deal. The problem is we all tend to procrastinate. What’s the solution?

You have the products and services prospects want. Now all you need to do is motivate them to buy.

Combine special offers with limited time availability. If you have a website you can put a countdown timer on your offer sales page to increase the sense of urgency.

Just use the links below to find code you can easily add to your web pages and include your countdown clock. There are tons out there. Here are three.

http://www.christmasbuzz.com/countdown/
(the site I grabbed my Santa countdown from)

http://www.countdownclockcodes.com/christmas-countdown-clocks/

http://www.7is7.com/otto/countdclock.html

That’s it!

Four easy, no-cost ways to increase your end-of-the-year sales and beat, or at least get closer, to your goals for the year.

And don’t forget the countdown clock is ticking for YOU too. If you’re at all interested in getting into the Monthly Marketing Mentoring Program for 20% off the first month, you can… if you take action today!

Go ahead and “play Santa” and buy yourself access to this wealth-building program, but act fast if you want in. There are were only 15 holiday specials left last time I looked. And whether these sell out or not, this offer ends on December 20th.

The #1 Way To Multiply Your Online Profits

The 3 Ultimate Keys to Wealth and Success

By Charlie Cook | November 12, 2008

Have you been watching TV or reading the newspapers? The bad economy makes great headlines, and they’re full of it. You can’t miss hearing or reading about how terrible it is for business. But if that’s all the news you’re getting, you are missing the good news.

The good news about this economy is plentiful. It just doesn’t make great headlines on TV.

It’s true: Many businesses will struggle or even fail during this downturn… but at least ten percent will prosper. That’s right: At least one out of ten businesses will see their profits grow!

Want to be one of those ten that attract more clients and profits? Find out how >>

Every week, I talk to entrepreneurs and businesses that, despite all the bad news in the press, are holding steady or even growing in this economy. And, they all have one thing in common: Their efforts are clearly focused on 3 simple ideas I’ll share with you below.

For most business owners, it’s not a lack of ideas that is the problem. It’s knowing which ones to use. So today I’m going to give you the keys to the kingdom: the three key ideas to use whether you’re thinking of starting a business or have been in business for decades.

These are the three most important ideas I’ve ever shared, and I recommend you read them and then tape them to your forehead, or rather to your computer monitor, and use them to focus your efforts, so you maximize your sales and profits this year and for the rest of your business career.

The 3 Keys to Ultimate Business Success

1. Needs
Whether you sell sunglasses, hearing aids, sports training, legal services, or financial advice, the place to focus is on your prospects’ needs. I know one entrepreneur who thought that the sunglasses parents were buying for their young children were a joke. So she came up with a line of quality unbreakable sunglasses for young kids, and her business is growing like wild.

Every product or service you create and market should be designed to meet an apparent or perceived need of your target market. No need, no sales. High perceived need, high sales.

The same is true of your marketing. It should be focused on your prospects’ needs. Focus your marketing on yourself, and you’ll struggle forever. Focus on what they want, and you’ll get their attention and their business.

Discover how to transform needs into profits >>

2. Relationships
Your biggest competitive advantage isn’t the quality of your products or services; it’s the number and strength of the relationships you have with prospects and clients. It’s the amount of confidence you command. So, where should your marketing be focused?

Focus 80-90% of your marketing efforts on relationship-building activities.

Typically, most marketing is aimed at getting the sale, not at building relationships or confidence. Big mistake! People need to first know you and trust you before they’ll buy from you. They need to be sure you’re the best company to buy from, and your product or service does what you say it does. Where confidence flows, money follows.

How do you gain someone’s confidence so he or she will buy from you? You help them get to know you through repeated contacts and demonstration of your expertise.

Find out how to build relationships for business success >>

3. Profits
Most entrepreneurs and business owners’ attention is squarely focused on increasing sales when instead they should be focused on profits. This can be a fatal mistake, skewing your marketing efforts and distracting you from what you should be paying attention to.

In the past few years, Washington Mutual had amazing success increasing the sales of mortgages. And as you know now, they lost money on each of these and, ultimately, caused the bank to fold.

Whether you are testing a headline, an ad, a sales letter, a website, an upsell strategy, or a followup strategy, the question you should be focused on is, “What will help us maximize our profits?” Yes, you could send out ten thousand postcards and get a few more sales, but if your response is low, your marketing costs are going to decimate your profits.

The solution to making more is to continually test and improve everything you do to market your business, so that each month, you’re generating more leads, more sales and yes – more profits.

Want to maximize your revenue? Discover how >>

That’s it! Needs, Relationships, and Profits.

Tape those 3 words to your wall, and if every day you ask yourself the following five questions, then you’ll be headed in the right direction.

- What are the needs of my prospects (perceived or real)?
- How can I do a better job of fulfilling those needs?
- What am I doing to start more relationships with prospects?
- What weekly and monthly activities am I doing to strengthen relationships with prospects and clients?
- What elements of my marketing am I testing and what would work better to increase profits?

P.P.S. Have you ever really wanted something so badly you could almost taste it, and then missed out because you simply waited too long? Remember just how disappointed and frustrated you were, thinking the whole time, “I can’t believe I missed that!”

When I was nine, my dad’s company got hold of some Boston Red Sox tickets they were going to give away to their employees. Boy, did I love them, watching them on TV as often as I could. That day, my dad said “Son, you and I are going to a Red Sox game.” I had never seen a “real” professional baseball game before and was so excited I couldn’t sleep a wink that night.

Anyway, he worked for a small company in Maine with about 40 employees. And they only had 20 tickets to give away, first come – first serve. My dad figured since many of the other workers were women, and didn’t really like baseball anyway, he would wait ’till the next day and get the tickets at the bus, assuming there would be plenty left for us.

The next morning, we ate a good breakfast, packed the cooler, and got our Red Sox hat and shirts on, anticipating a great day. After all, it was my first trip to Boston to see a real ballgame. We even got to the bus two hours early… But there was a problem. The bus was already filled to capacity and the tickets were all gone!

It was very quiet as we drove back home in utter disbelief.

Come to find out, the women he didn’t think were interested in going immediately called their husbands and their friends to come down and pick up tickets right then, not the next morning. You can only imagine the disappointment of a 9 year-old, and my Dad, well… he has never forgiven himself to this day.

Contrary to the popular saying, especially in marketing your business – Good things DON’T always come to those who wait! Don’t be like my dad and wait till it’s too late. Believe me, you will never forgive yourself, he didn’t!

So What’s Included in the Monthly Marketing Mentoring Program?

By Charlie Cook | October 27, 2008

I’ve been getting a lot of email from people wanting to know what’s included in the new Monthly Marketing Mentoring program that will launch tomorrow, Monday, at 11am.

Like you, they all want to know, “How will it benefit me and my business?”

The benefit to you is FOCUS.
Anyone who has been in business for a year or two knows that they need a marketing strategy to attract new clients and earn more. You know that you need have a way to attract clients, a way to clarify the value of your products and services and a way to close the sale.
And you may even know that with an effective follow strategy you can increase your profits by 300%.

Between print and e-media and using simple tools like the telephone, there are an almost infinite number of ways to market your business and an equal infinite number of ways to do it wrong and waste your time and hard earned cash.

Have you ever sent out a mailing, placed an ad or put up a web site and gotten no response, or not enough to break even? Despite all your hard work, your efforts missed the target. No one told you where or how to focus your marketing to get the results you wanted.

Knowing where to focus your marketing efforts is the key to the future of your company. While this has always been important, it’s even more so in this economy.

Have you ever asked;

What’s the quickest way to grow my business?

What’s the most cost-effective way to attract buyers?

What’s the best way to overcome the trust barrier and close the sale?

How can I write marketing copy that sells?

How can I use email to generate interest and close the sale?

The biggest challenge for any business owner — and even more so for small business owners — is knowing where to focus your efforts to maximize your return.

Your future, your success and how much you make depend on it.

What do you get when you join the Monthly Marketing Mentoring Program?

You’ll get access to the best ideas from the top marketing and sales experts in the country, people like Jay Conrad Levinson, Mike Bosworth, Al Ries, and many others including myself. With their expertise you’ll be able to focus the time and money you spend on marketing. You’ll discover the latest and most practical ways to pull in more profits.

How else will you benefit from being one of the first 250 people to sign up for this monthly marketing membership program?

With a value of thousands of dollars a month, what will this actually cost you? $297 a month? $197? Or will it be as low as only $97 a month?
