and google’s analytics service is free so there’s really no excuse.

It does everything you need in an analytics package and will give you all the relevant ( and a few irrelevant stats ) to help you get your website performing better.

So if you arene’t currently using an analytics package, google’s free service will give you everything you need to get started making some solid business decisions about your marketing and your website.

This article courtesy of brianeisenberg.com gives you an in-depth tutorial about google’s analytics service.

Lots of good content and video tutorials ( which I like because I’m a lazy reader )

The Missing Google Analytics Manual

P.S. people will tell you that you need a high priced analytics package if you’re really serious about making money online,

but Google analytics will do everything you need it to for nothing. Worth trying out first of all.

Carlos and Lupe Garcia decided to look at alternate traffic methods, banners, ad networks and used simple landing pages and follow up systems ( well optimized of course ) and scaled it up to $5 Million a month in sales.

If you’ve been doing your research and checking out Google looking for the best business opportunity you might have square eyes and a brain full of contradictory advice right about now.

So what do you listen to and what do you ignore ???

Well personally I think you need to do something real that provides value to other people and to the internet as a whole.

Crappy adsense sites and fake blogs are probably not the way you want to go about about setting up your internet business.

Check out this article from copyblogger telling you why you should provide value and be real if you want to lay some good foundations for your business.

Get it right and you have an automated salesperson at the top of their game bringing you sales and money on autopilot.

Get it wrong and…. well let’s not bother about getting it wrong, let’s see how we can get it right.

Ideally we want warm targeted visitors who come to like us and our recommendations and buy from us.

We don’t want to sell from fear and negativity, nobody appreciates that and it’s not the foundations you want to build your business on.

So let’s have a look at how we can go about writing copy that sells and makes people like us too, courtesy of copyblogger.com.

The article deals with writing copy for bloggers but the principles are exactly the same wherever you use your copy.

Rather than try and explain it I’ll just post the e-mail here :

Hi Richard,

My buddy Dean Jackson pointed out an interesting example to
me the other day that really got me thinking. There’s a big
lesson here so keep your eyes peeled…

It’s about 2 very successful shows running in Vegas.

Both of them were blockbusters and entertaining sold-out
audiences each and every night. Both were family-friendly
and both had sterling reputations. And both even had
specialized theaters built for them, named after their
shows…

But that’s where the similarities end.

You see, one show got shuttered after a tragic accident on
stage and the revenue drops to pretty much zilch. The other
show is flourishing worldwide and is now a multi-million
dollar company.

So which shows am I talking about?

Well, the first one is Siegfried and Roy. They created this
amazing long running show of magic and illusion featuring
their famous white tigers.  They had a lifetime gig doing
their show at The Mirage in Las Vegas, until that fateful
day in October of 2003, when Roy was mauled by one of his
tigers.  They had made no other contingencies. Now the show
closed down and their business was gone…!POOF!

And that second show?

It’s the Blue Man Group. Maybe you’ve heard of them or
remember the Intel ads that featured them. It’s a group of 3
guys painted electric blue from head to toe, who splash
paint, make sounds and splat stuff out of their mouths. It
might sound a bit juvenile but audiences love them! And from
a business or entrepreneurial case-study point – there are a
lot of things to learn here.

The little light bulb moment came for them when Jillete Penn
(part of the duo Penn & Teller) saw their show in NYC during
the first month. He told them, “Oh, my God! You guys can do
what Teller and I can never do! You can clone yourselves!”

They didn’t get it at first because they thought they had to
be the talent.

But finally they idea dawned on them that they really could
leverage what they were doing by painting other actors (who
were trained by them) blue and doing another show.
Currently, their live stage shows can be seen in New York,
Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas, Orlando, Berlin, and Tokyo plus
frequent tours.

But get this – right now the original 3 members of Blue Man
group do not even perform – they’re busy growing their
brand.  They’ve ventured into all sorts of other venues
including film, music, TV, education and even children’s
toys. The toy development is a license to create toys based
on their musical instruments. (Smart!)

Frankly, the biggest lesson here is leverage…

Siegfried and Roy never figured out a way to get paid beyond
their performance. (Yes, they got paid lavishly but they had
golden handcuffs because they could never stop performing
day-in and day-out.) But Blue Man group leveraged themselves
by duplicating their performances and now by starting to
license their creations. That means they have revenue coming
in from lots of “open doors”.

Now I certainly don’t know if you’ll create the next
blockbuster show in Vegas – but I’ll make you a bet you can
still leverage yourself in a slightly different way without
painting yourself blue.

Online marketing lessons from the blue man group,

hey, you’ve gotta take em from where you find em.

cheers,

Rich Paylor :)

Even so, I am inclined to agree with them, and to be fair to them they do provide a fantastic email and auoresponder service , that I would recommend to anyone.

And they provide some good content on e-mail marketing that it is helpful to read.
