Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google Part 6

The post describes our strategy to fetch the first 1000 followers on Twitter for the purpose of building a list of readers, listeners and people we can engage in conversation with.

Our declared 90 days goal is to rake in 10 leads per day and one sale per day.

Expanding on Twitter

There is a lot of hype around about how to increase your followers on Twitter and most of it is nonsense. However, there seem to be two main strategies used by successful people:

1. Grab whatever you can and sort out later.

2. Go out in a targeted way to find responsive people with whom you can engage in conversation and don’t waste your time on nonsense and producing cyber-waste.

For someone who has already a big list it’s always easy to say: “be selective”. On the other hand, when you start, you try to get the best advise and follow it.

Here is the strategy I will apply to the Nutrinsider twitter account: To start with I will go out and look for people with whom I can share the interest in particular keywords and follow them. The more the better to drive my twitter to a level where the critical mass is reached and where it will then produce more daily followers automatically. I think that that critical mass is somewhere between 1500 and 2000 followers.

So my first goal is to reach the critical mass. From there on I can then just do daily follow-up and sort what’s added, to extract my 10 daily leads.

Lead Generation with Twitter

It’s always the same: you have the choice between spending money on targeted leads or you can produce your leads with your own means.

I prefer to screen the market by myself, using my Semiomantics websites and the visibility created in stead of spending on or other Google Ads or in stead of buying leads from lead companies.

The free lead generator at YORGOO is another site to use for free lead generation. YORGOO will be adapted to become efficient on social networks later this month.

My Twitter Performance

In as much as expansion is concerned, I have implemented the recommendations from the last Ycademy Seminar a week ago and since then my Twitter Account has increased by over 1100 followers.

I will apply the same strategy on Nutrinsider, pushing may be a bit harder :-).

As I am writing, there are 1338 followers on that account.

Nutrinsider on Twitter

The Nutrinsider account on Twitter has just been set up and customized. I will now go and follow a bunch of people to share common interests.

At present the account has 24 followers and we will just speed that up.

More later.

Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google Part 5

This Post will define the content for our website project  Herbalife Marketing on Twitter, Facebook and Google. In Part 4 we have been looking at configuration issues and the development of our framework. Now we look at content and how to link to our products.

Herbalife Marketing with an attractive Website

Our site Nutrinsider is coming along nicely. Have a look and appreciate the Graphics by Bianca Gubalke as well as the various categories on display in the layout of the home page. These categories can be shifted and replaced at will, since the semiomantics NewsCast script allows for extreme flexibility without decreasing the publishing power of the site.

Did you notice, this is a Herbalife Marketing site without mentioning Herbalife? Well, this is normal, since this is not a Herbalife website but it’s MY  website. It takes care of MY business and it brands MY business and creates authority for me and my business. Remember Part 2 of this Marketing Guide: we distinguish clearly between our business and Herbalife business.

The content of the website Nutrinsider

The primary purpose of Nutrinsider is to provide visitors with valuable and entertaining content. A mix of information, guidance, entertainment, but in no way throwing at visitors with product boxes or payment buttons.

Over time we will build informative content articles (original content) which focus on the benefits of  the products we want to sell. For example, while the anti-aging category is an interesting field, more to the point is Sex at 80. We have just marked this headline on Nutrinsider and if you punch  “Sex at 80″ (with the quotes for a narrow search) into Google you will find Nutrinsider on Google Top 10.

How to Promote a Herbalife Product on Twitter, Facebook and Google?

In fact, you should have two different approaches.

1. Target people who know what they want and who search for the product directly with their credit card between their teeth. That means, you would have to be found on key phrases containing the term Prelox Blue for example.

The problem you may face: you must observe Herbalife Internet rules in order not to infringe trade marks or copy right laws. Remember the meta tag rules and so on.

The benefit however is huge: you may get direct customers, just because you are smarter than your competitors as you may target a more traffic rich highly targeted key phrase. Don’t forget: the people we are targeting here have already made their purchase decision, they are  ready to buy and they just need the payment button or shopping cart.

Think about it: just targeting Prelox Blue will most likely not be the smartest choice. People could be more likely to search for:

Best Price Herbalife Prelox Blue

Price is often used in searches.

Best Buy Herbalife Prelox Blue

Buy is a good one as well.

Where to buy best Herbalife Prelox Blue

The where question …

Discount on Herbalife Prelox Blue

People spend time looking for discounts.

Coupons for Herbalife Prelox Blue

You get the point?

2. Target people who know the benefit or result they want to achieve and who need guidance to select the appropriate product. This is where you need great content to also build your authority, to build trust and to build confidence. This is probably the most important point when it comes to social networking.

People don’t join social networks to get your ads and spams all day long. They go there to participate in conversations, to meet people and for entertainment. If you have Herbalife Products to sell, don’t open your wall to Herbalife distributors, as you will rake in all their junk, you definitely don’t want to bring in front of your audience and listeners.

People are fed up with “Lose Weight buy Herbalife” or any other product. Again your success is not in what you say, but how you say it. Traditionally Herbalife has been built on Push Marketing strategies which today and namely online are perceived as almost vulgar. “Lose Weight Ask Me How” corresponds to an out-dated model and online it’s definitely a no-no.

Pull Market strategies consist in giving people who find you primarily valuable content. People find you – you are not running after prospects. We are not talking about content biased by a commercial touch. Once you understand this, you can start making money on Twitter, Facebook and Google. (The exception is point 1 above).

People must find you with a question of the type: “can I have sex at 80″, or “how to have sex at 80″, “how to assure an active love life” , and so on. There they want substantial information. The real thing, not some commercial hype or tweaked testimonials. Give people an honest answer to the question, straight to the point and think that with every post you build or destroy your reputation.

Here comes the good news and you will now understand why the name of Herbalife on your site is not a good idea. Your business, say Nutrinsider, provides it’s readers with valuable content about sexual activity of seniors. Great. You may quote the press, scientists, the FDA, just about anyone who has to say something relevant and smart about the topic in a NON COMMERCIAL way. Don’t just quote scientists who are on Herbalife’s payroll!

And don’t forget, you are not discussing a Herbalife product but a topic of concern to your readers.

If you associate the name of Herbalife to your editorials or if you load your site with Herbalife product ads, you are subject to the restrictions set forth by the Herbalife Internet rules. Also your credibility goes straight down the drain as your recommendations are clearly biased by your commercial interest.

Also, if you have quoted scientific content, you may not be legally correct by associating such comment with Herbalife products. So, just keep your freedom of speech by providing non commercial content. Don’t forget, it’s your business site and Herbalife is not your business.

How to link Content to Herbalife Products

Your website is a publishing platform with multiple aspects. Your content can be split and clearly labeled as information (unbiased), Product reviews, entertainment and fun and commercial content such as ads. And last but not least you have testimonials.

Testimonials are a great tool and in fact the best tool for promoting Food Supplements and most anything on Social Networks. However these testimonials need to be formulated in an intelligent way.

Testimonials saying: “I have tried every diet to lose weight and nothing was working until I tried Herbalife. Thank you Herbalife!” may be nice for Herbalife to read, but it’s complete nonsense in a social network and to promote your business and reputation as you are just again smearing all over the place a Company name which is what people will be retaining, often in a negative way as they have not come to a social network to get spammed with ads.

It’s a problem of credibility and empathy and while the name of Herbalife may help you to promote yourself amongst happy Herbalife Customers, this may just not be the right approach elsewhere.

Think about your purpose: You promote your business to build your assets. Your asset is your reputation and authority. You therefore need testimonials saying: “I have tried every diet to lose weight and nothing has worked until I read Nutrinsider and I met Yorgo Nestoridis. Thank you Nutrinsider and thank you Yorgo!”

You get the point?

You need testimonials which build trust and confidence in YOU! Product testimonials mentioning Herbalife and the Product name are fine for your shop.

Your goal is that people follow YOU and listen to YOU and read YOUR content and accept YOUR advise and YOUR guidance! That’s where your business asset is built. In the beginning you may be well advised to use the help of your upline who has already built trust and authority as well as experience. Learn from your upline, but learn fast and start building YOUR business.

From the testimonial you can then link to your result and benefit oriented review pages or if you have a smart shop, maybe there is some smart content you can link to.

On Nutrinsider we will circumvent the problem by shooting on subsidiary questions such a price, discount, free shipping, coupons and so on. You will see how we can promote a product, without even mentioning its name as the case may be. Our site script will keep us clear of any legal problems.

Try to think in the following way: it does not matter what you sell; but it matters how you sell it. If today you sell Herbalife products, tomorrow you may sell any other product. If your online assets are setup and built correctly, then you have no problem switching, as YOUR assets are your business and your readers and prospects have first of all trust in you as a person and in you as a business from which they bought the solution to their problem.

I am not suggesting here you should switch merchant; but I am insisting on the fact that you must build YOUR assets. Only assets which are Independent of Herbalife are really YOUR assets with a value you can cash in upon. Also, your site should reflect what and who YOU are not what Herbalife is. Herbalife has it’s own sites for that. Social Networkers are interested in meeting YOU as a person and to talk with you as an individual.

Sure, as a Herbalifer you are feeling great, looking even better and having sex till 101 years old. Without telling everybody that you have a Herbalife tattoo on your bum, your energy, your enthusiasm, your look and your positive winning attitude will do the job for you … better than anything else!

Google Top 10 Strategy by Nutrinsider

Building a new site and aiming Google Top 10 with the main keywords is a legitimate goal for any publisher. Nutrinsider is a new site aiming to provide readers with interesting and entertaining content in relation to the benefits of healthy nutrition, energy, antiaging and vitality.

Sports Nutrition is just one aspect of Nutrinsider’s concerns.

Google Top 10 with Sports Nutrition

Sports Nutrition is a popular topic and heavily fought for on Google Top 10. The number of advertisers demonstrate the general interest to target this keyword and to bring our publication to the Top 10.

For the time being we are just configuring the site to communicate on one side with Social Networks, namely with Twitter and then of course with Google. Interesting content will be posted as soon as our communication flow is working smoothly.

Google Top 10

Google top 10 rakes in over 80% of the traffic as most people use default settings showing the Top 10 search results and then they don’t surf to page 2 or further. For this reason it is crucial to aim Google Top 10 on any marketing target we decide to aim.

Google Top 10 Publishing Model

To optimize our publishing power, we are building publishing and communication flows which aim Google Top 10 and Social Networks. To demonstrate the model, which Semiomantics Publishing Frameworks apply to each targeted keyword we have just added a new category to the Nutrinsider site, called Sports Nutrition.

Under this category we have posted a short blurb saying that the category deals with sports nutrition.

Now we can measure the impact and flow by simply typing into Google: Sports Nutrition Nutrinsider to see what actually comes back and from where.

Google Top 10 Performance

The result is almost immediate and interesting to observe:

Sports Nutrition on Google Top 10

On Google Top 10 under Sports Nutrition Nutrinsider, we get first the home page of Nutrinsider, then a specific post on Nutrinsider and on the third rank, Nutrinsider’s Twitter entry, whereas Twitter is helping us to get our link to the top 10 of Google. This is a nice model to Make Money with Twitter.

This shows the perfect symbiosis between our site, the social network and Google. Nutrinsider is ready to grab Google top 10 positions.

Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google Part 4

This post describes the set-up of our online infrastructure to Promote and Market Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google. In Part 3 we have discussed our ambitious goals and means needed to meet our expectations.

Nutrinsider our Online Publication

Nutrinsider is our new Online Publication which will serve to build our authority, visibility and consequently traffic, leads and sales. The site script NewsCast from Semiomantics has a newspaper layout, allowing to feature up to 20 categories just on the home page for quick information. The layout is designed to provide an interesting surfing experience due to the automated embedding of visual elements.

Graphic design is provided by Bianca Gubalke from South Africa, my preferred graphic art designer. Have a look at the first shot of the work in progress:

View the details by clicking on the picture; this is just the first shot, whereas Bianca has already loaded background graphics to give the site a personalized touch and feel. The color scheme is between blue and green, typography is still on default but will be modified.

We have pulled in a few posts via RSS to test RSS feed inflow and to have some posts to test display on site as well as impact on Google.

Nutrinsider on Twitter

Our new Twitter Account is already featuring our customized background graphics from Bianca Gubalke.

As you can see I am just following my personal Twitter account to get some flow going and to test the power of communication and publishing of our Semiomantics scripts.

The good old joke about the bra and the hat had to serve for a first test, and guess what: Google sent us flowers right away.

Our tweet targeting an old joke pulled in from a joke network and published on Nutrinsider via RSS feed, triggered multiple Google entries, namely if you check the combination of Lose Weight with the word Bra and Hat :-)

It is not surprising to find us on Google Top 10 under the wording of the tweet (what did a bra say to a hat), what is of more interest is that the script automatically creates the association of our tweet with the main keywords of the website and triggers targeted entries in function of the definition and configuration of our publishing framework.

On Lose Weight Bra and on Lose Weight Hat you will find Nutrinsider on Google Top 10, which does not mean a big deal about ranking but it shows that Google picks up our entries extremely fast, indexes them and lists them where our intentions are.

Brilliant stuff our site script.

Configuring our Publishing Framework

The next step will be to configure our publishing framework for social network publishing purposes and for optimized communication with Google. We want to achieve that Google indexes us on each of our main targeted keywords and that Nutrinsider as a whole gains authority under those keywords. This process should be finished later today.

Social Network Publishing

We will need to optimize communication with Twitter and make sure that we can be found under our keywords. The publishing process needs to be mostly automated and we need to assure viral distribution. Once our social network publishing concept is implemented on Twitter we will move on to Facebook, which is just a link away.

Semiomantics Services

Just for the record: Semiomantics Professional Publishing Scripts come with installation and configuration as well as basic graphic markup. Customization, script installations, add-on modules are included and delivered after testing. Direct collaboration between designer, developer and customer speeds up the implementation of each project.

More later today.

Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google Part 3

This post describes Goals and Means used for Herbalife Marketing on Twitter, Facebook and Google. Please read first Part 1 and Part 2 of this Guide.

Goals of Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google

Assumptions:

1. You have a lead capture page to which you need to drive traffic for conversion. (The page you target with your Google Ads)

2. You have an online shop or Product page to which you need to drive traffic.

(If you don’t have any of these, it does not really matter as you can create them during the set up here.)

Goal:

Put your lead generator and product page in front of as many interested and ready to act people as possible, targeting the audience at Google, Twitter and Facebook to generate a growing number of sales and downline networkers in a streamlined and mostly automated way.

Sounds like a Great Challenge! But I will give myself the means to tackle it and the focus to succeed.

Note:

I will not discuss here automated and manual lead and customer follow-up systems as most Herbalife Teams get solutions from their upline Leaders.

Herbalife Distributors I need your Help!

As I am not a Herbalife Independent Distributor, I would like to offer to you, dear reader and Herbalife Independent Distributor the opportunity to profit from this demonstration and Guide, by letting our Marketing Machine drive traffic your way.

Use the comment box below to punch in (use the original post HERE to do this):

1. Something about You in two sentences (who and where you are, and something about your experience with Herbalife (Product and/or Business)). A link to your picture online will help.

2. Punch in the link to your lead generator (opt-in page) for business

3. Punch in the link to your product page

4. Punch in your primary targeted keyword for Business and the keyword for your Blockbuster product.

(Please remember: the Keywords are benefits your potential customers or partners are looking for.)

( Your comments will not be public unless you want them to be – just mention Public)

The Means to achieve my Goal

I have been building sites for years namely for networkers and marketing oriented people. Experience tells us, that if you don’t give yourself the appropriate means, you will never ever reach any tangible goal. It is therefore important to make sure your expectations are not beyond your means.

I remember John Peterson talking here in Athens in 2002 about the Carpenter who needs a set of prerequisites to build his piece of furniture and to succeed in his profession: the wood, the plan, the tools and the skills or knowledge PLUS COMMUNICATION.

Same here, we need to assemble the means which correspond to our ambitions, goals and purpose.

I will not go into the details about budgeting it all, I just take a short cut and budget for my online business $2000 and 4 hours a day, to be spent on infrastructure, knowledge and marketing to succeed on my 90 day plan with the following short term goals:

Goal 1: Rank on Google Top 10 at least with one entry under my 3 main keywords

Goal 2: Get daily 10 leads to follow-up upon for business expansion (from Google, Twitter, Facebook)

Goal 3: Sell one product daily

There you go! 4 hours per day and $2000 that’s what I will invest during 90 days to make my baby fly. If you invest less time, you have to increase the cash budget and if you want to move faster, you increase time and cash.

This plan is basically what I used back in 2002 to go from supervisor to GET in 90 days, winning by the way the 2002 Herbalife summer cruise bonus available for high performers.

Building your Business Online

Online Publishing – Domain and Websites

To be present online, you need to edit and  publish; you become an editor and publisher by setting up your website and by adding content to it which will attract readers.

Domain

As you have not yet had the opportunity to send me your keywords, I will use a generic domain name:

Nutrinsider.com

which I have registered at yorGOdom, our in house domain host we have set up back in 2003 to ensure full control over domains as well as tons of free stuff and unequaled customer service.

Budget: $12.95 per year.

WebSite Script

I want to use the best site scripts for this purpose to ensure high performance on Google and high speed automated communication with Social Networks as well as Bookmarking Networks.

You may have noticed, that any post I publish, reaches Google Top 10 under its main keywords, like our first posts in this series about Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google. There is a good reason for it: I use Semiomantics Scripts for all my sites.

Example: Marketing Herbalife as seen on Google:

You may check out also Marketing Herbalife on Google, or Marketing Herbalife on Twitter or Marketing Herbalife on Facebook … my publications dominate the Google Top 10.

I get to start with a Semiomantics NewsCast Script which retails for $750, expandable to$1250 by adding a shop with semantic features driving shop items to the top of Google (the only shop which get’s products top ranked as far as I am aware of). We don’t need this add on as you have a product site or shop.

So, I spend $750 for my script and the Good News: I will never spend on Google Ads again :-) because my site is taking me where I would advertise for free, all day long, 365 days a year and I can multiply my entries.

Semiomantics Scripts are modified, tuned and optimized WordPress based semantic publishing frameworks. If you are interested in a Semiomantics site, please contact me.

Website Hosting

I just use the ChiHosters Unlimited Pack at $35 per year, which hosts some of my most important sites, such as YORGOO Publishing. This is a hosting pack, probably the best deal in the market, we have created for our own purposes and friends and namely to host self hosted WordPress and Semiomantics sites.

Social Networks

For the purpose of this demonstration I will just set up a new Twitter Account with the user name Nutrinsider a niche network builder for the purpose of my Herbalife related Marketing.

On Facebook you can use your personal site or you set up a new account where then we will add our professional page.

Booster or Blaster

To complete my initial mini publishing network I grab a YORGOO Booster or a YORGOO Blaster script for my niche sites. That’s another $67.

How about my Budget?

I have now spent $864.95 and I have eliminated all my Google Budget for years to come while raking in loads of Google traffic. My new budget projection would be, that I will probably not spend more than $1200 from the $2000 initially set aside to reach my goal, unless I want to build a high performance Semiomantics tuned store and a follow-up system.

Now let’s start putting some of our time into the business and get the online show up and running.

Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google Part 2

This post will discuss some basic prerequisites  of Marketing Herbalife (or any MLM) on Google, Twitter and Facebook, while  Part 1 was dealing with a typical situation describing the effects and mechanisms of online Marketing focused on paid Google listing and Google Ads.

This post will set our focus right on our purpose which will be fundamental when building our online Marketing Pipeline.

Traffic – Leads – Conversion

In order to sell whatever we have to sell, we need to make sure that we can bring our products or services in front of interested people. In other terms, we need traffic, targeted traffic.

Marketing Herbalife on twitter, Facebook and Google Part 2 Video

Traffic is then converted to leads, meaning contacts we can get in touch with, in one or the other way to promote our products and services, respectively to build trust and confidence by building a quality relation.

Leads convert to sales when we sell successfully … ourselves, in the ideal case.

Define your Business and Products – what are you Selling

Frankly, nobody needs you to buy Herbalife products or to buy a Business Pack online!

Most people have come across Herbalife in the past and they have probably already been contacted by mail or in social networks by Herbalife Independent Distributors. If someone wants to know more about Herbalife, he will punch “Herbalife” into the Google engine to get the picture or he can click on an ad to sign up with someone or they may have a neighbor or family member who is a distributor, and so on.

In any case, there is competition out there and we are in an environment where people are searching for what they want, when they want it.

Push Marketing is out, here comes pull marketing.

The important issue is: people must be able to find you when they are looking for the benefit you are promoting and then they must be happy with what they see, once they found you (empathy).

Visibility … like our Part 1 post from yesterday which hits Google Top 10:

What is your Business?

Your business is not Herbalife, or rather: Herbalife is not YOUR business. Your business is You, it’s your company or Home Business that you define in function of your purpose, means, abilities, ambitions and dreams.

Let’s call it MyBusiness (we will find a name later).

What is MyBusiness? MyBusiness is a marketing business which markets and promotes the products and opportunities from a company called Herbalife. You are basically promoting YOUR business, which is the only way not to breach Herbalife Rules nor to infringe Trademarks or Copyrights. Stick with this most important rule.

Example: the use of the name of Herbalife in your Domain name is not allowed (or needs permission) and I wonder if the use of the name of Herbalife in your user name on Social Networks could not become a problem, since such user names tend to be converted to meta keywords on Twitter for example and therefore it could be a breach of the Herbalife rules.

What are you selling?

You are not selling Herbalife Shakes and Tablets, you are not selling Herbalife Business opportunities, you are not selling Herbalife. For as long as you focus on selling Herbalife, Pills and Powders and Biz ops, you will not sell with success.

Talking about Herbalife

Herbalife has a strict policy about what you can say and what is reserved for the official representatives of the Company itself. There are legal implications when and how you represent a product or a company. Stick with the rules!

To illustrate the problem: today I came across an article from the Ada Evening News while surfing the Google Top 10 on Herbalife, where excited Herbalife Distributors are talking to the press in a way which, I am not sure, is compliant with the rules.

Make it a rule to talk about YOUR Business and when you talk about Herbalife, always do it with due respect and caution; don’t kill the hen laying the Golden Eggs for you.

Your Marketing Lingo

We now need to translate what we have to sell into marketing lingo. Or rather, we have to find the keywords people would search for when wither wanting the results our products can procure or if they want to benefit from the business opportunity we have on offer.

Just dress a list of the benefits you have on offer, such as make money from home, make money with home business, earn online, lose weight, lose 20 pounds, get rid of your debt, …, whatever you have defined as being the benefits your business activity offers to prospects.

Marketing lingo is not “I sell Vitamins”, but ” I share with you the benefits”.

I did the excercise on over 100 Herbalife products available in the USA back in 2002 and created for each and every product a specific short ad. It is however enough if you focus on just a few blockbuster products, say 3-5 products or product groups, on which you focus to attract first time customers. Herbalife is of great help in as much as the group names may already be keyword oriented.

What’s your existing Online Infrastructure?

There are two websites you may have subscribed to with your upline team leader: a lead capture page (opt-in and auto responder system) and may be an online shop or product site. They both are Google neutral or inefficient, if they are replications, irrespective of the fact that you may have hooked your own domain to them.

Never mind, they will do the trick as they do the trick when you market with Google Ads.

If you have a domain, check if the domain name is Google efficient, either something neutral like your name or including one of your main benefits or keywords you are targeting; if this is not the case, consider changing your domain or getting a new one for your marketing online. We will go through an example when building our online marketing pipeline.

Don’t skip this step!

May be this post is not very attractive, but believe me, this is probably the most important part of this series of posts. You must know what your business is and you must know what the benefits are you are offering. And finally, you must know what keywords you will target, whether you do this with Google Ads or on Twitter or Facebook, it all boils down to the same:

People react to certain trigger words or key phrases. That’s what generates empathy, traffic, conversation and conversion.

It is also important to differentiate between your business and the MLM company you are a Distributor of. Keep in mind, you are building a Network in your own rights as an asset for your business. Your assets are your authority, traffic, prospects, customers, cashflow and partners in your networks, be these networks social or business related.

Spend time with this step to become aware who you are in this process, where you want to go and how you want to get there with what means.

Once your goals are clear, continue and you will see, what will follow is just technicalities and in support of your purpose.

Think and Grow Rich!

What the Heck are you doing online anyway?

You are basically developing your domain, authority, reputation and circle of influence. Look at it in a simple way: you buy a domain like a chunk of land and then you develop it. All you do all day long is to develop your domain by building assets.

The assets we are talking about are: visibility, authority, notoriety, traffic, leads, prospects, customers, customer care, cash flow…

You develop these assets under your business name irrespective of the business opportunity you promote and they will finally determine the value of your business.

If you got this one straight, you are on the right track and you will focus on just this one goal: develop your online (and offline) assets. The resulting cash is the measure for your success and your license from Herbalife is your means to convert your development to cash.

Look forward to Part 3 of Marketing Herbalife on Twitter and Facebook and Google where we will build our online infrastructure.

Marketing Herbalife on Twitter, Facebook and Google

Marketing Herbalife on Twitter is like marketing most anything on Twitter: it requires a goal, a concept, a strategy and the means to implement the plan. Focus and Consistency are the 2 additional ingredients which will lead to success.

Back in 2002, while testing MLM marketing online, I earned over $10 000 per month exclusively by selling Herbalife products online.

I have abandoned the MLM industry end of 2002 to build my own online business, implementing marketing concepts by building high performance websites and publishing networks aiming high visibility on Google Top 10, empathy and conversion.

Check me out on Google under the Keyword Google Top 10. This is what I see when checking as I am writing, rank 7, and there is more on page 2.

Herbalife Marketing: Two different Purposes

Marketing Herbalife on Google - Video

Herbalife Distributors pursue two purposes:

1. Selling Products to earn an income.

2. Expanding the Network (Downline) to leverage on the MLM structure and pay plan.

This series of posts will deal with Marketing and Promoting Herbalife Products and Business opportunity online using Twitter, Facebook and Google.

Herbalife Marketing with Google Ads

Herbalife Distributors often use replicated lead generation pages, which due to the nature of replication have little chance to gain visibility on Google.

The advantage of such squeeze, splash or landing pages is that the Distributor does not need to be internet savvy, he just needs to “drive traffic to the page”.

Google Ads provide a system allowing anyone to target prospects on a keyword based model, whereas the advertisers bid for the keywords. Google is selling keywords on auction bases, the advertiser bids for the best possible exposure.

The goal consists in spending less on ads than to earn on conversion. If a Herbalife Distributor rakes in $320 for a new Supervisor recruited using Google ads, then the deal would be brilliant; however the truth is, that Google advertising cost has tremendously increased since 2002 when we could advertise for 1 cent per click and when with 5 cents per click you already looked like a hero.

The disadvantages of the Google Ads concept for Herbalife Distributors

Relying only on Google Ads is an expensive venture, the more that only few people know, what a new supervisor actually costs when recruited by using Google Ads. In fact the reward on the advertising Dollars spent does not just come from the recruiting commission, but form the future earnings upline achieves from the activity of the new supervisor. The same idea is used as a base for calculation at eBay, Amazon and other online commercial ventures.

How to be Successful in Herbalife recruiting using Google Ads

Let’s suppose you have some knowledge about keywords, targeting and AdWords, then you can figure out how many clicks you need to get one lead, and how many leads you need to sell one business pack and how many business packs you need to sell to get one new Supervisor, and … you will know the average price you pay per click and the time frame within which you have to get these clicks to be successful.

This knowledge lets you easily budget your business.

Let’s say you need 30 clicks to get 1 lead at 50 cents a click, then every lead costs you $15

Let’s say you need 10 leads to sell a Business Pack, then each business pack entails marketing cost of $150

Let’s say out of  5 Business Packs sold you recruit one Supervisor, that means your Supervisor costs $750 in Marketing Cash.

You will get $320 in commissions for the 4000 Points sold, you are in the red with $430.

That is when you are told: the money is in the follow-up. And it’s true, that’s where the money is, provided you have someone to follow-up upon in the first place.

Who right in his mind would use Google Ads to Recruit for Herbalife – or any MLM?

The answer is simple: your upline would.

Why? Because he builds his downline with the cumulative marketing efforts provided by himself and his downline. In other terms, you need to be able to split and “share” your marketing budget with downlines to bring your own marketing cost down to below your direct commission income level.

Here is how it works:

Suppose you are a Supervisor and you have 9 downline Supervisors.

You team up and everyone kicks in $100 per month to a joint AdWords campaign, that’s a total budget of $1000. Now let’s play the statistics according to the above assumptions:

From your point of view, as the upline, your team will grow by one new supervisor; you don’t know where in your downline, it could be a direct hit or it could be on the account of one, and one only of your downlines.

Your winning downline spent $100 and makes $320. You spent $100 and you make your 5%, that’s $200. You two are in the black, whereas the other 8 team members have been paying for your success.

After 4 months, you will have 4 new supervisors and  the team has made 4 x $320 = $1280 plus your 4 times $200, totalling $2080 if your new supervisors went all under one of your direct downlines. At the same time your team has spent $4000 or $400 a person.

At this point only one person in the team is statistically in the black, and that is the upline. Statistically all team members have spent $400 and 4 of them have made $320. The latter are in the red by $80, while the other 5 team members are in the red by $400 each and you, the upline you are in the black with at least $400.

After 10 months (we neglect here the contribution by the new supervisors, which will worsten the stats for your initial team members individually), you will have 10 new supervisors, one a direct downline, the others underneath.

Each team member will have spent $1000 and each will have made $320, i.e. they lose $680

You, as their upline will have spent $1000 and you made one time $320 and 9 times $200=$1800, totaling $2120, earning on the operation $1120.

This is the math!

But it gets worse:

Herbalife Distributors compete against each other for keywords

There are many Herbalife Distributors promoting their Business Opportunity on Google, which per se is not a bad idea. However, there is not unlimited traffic on the targeted keywords and many teams target similar keywords, competing with each other for the best spots and overbidding each other to get most of the valuable traffic. This way, in general, there are only two parties which make money for sure: Google and Herbalife the Company (they don’t spend a dime and their global distributorship and sales grow), while you as a distributor, you overpay your clicks because of the internal competition.

The solution to the problem

There are 3 solutions:

1. Become an upline and deal with your team as described above, making sure that you grow faster than people drop out. This will work and as some of your downlines will grow as well you will reach the critical mass soon where you don’t need to contribute to the marketing effort anymore (financially).

2. Get Google Traffic with a highly visible website on Google. Invest into your own marketing arm, a top notch SEO tuned website and get organic Google Top 10 listing under the relevant keywords.

3. Look for additional marketing strategies to complete your Google strategy and decrease the average marketing cost per conversion; this is what we want to look at when talking about Marketing Herbalife on twitter and Facebook.

The main benefit of our Herbalife Marketing Solution

Marketing Herbalife or any MLM online needs a global approach to streamline the effort and to hit two targets at the same time, Google and Social networks such as Twitter and Facebook.

This Marketing concept unites Google Top 10 chasing as well as Social Media Marketing; it may replace completely or partially Google Ads budgets.

This Marketing concept is designed to generate individual results as well as team results, unlike the above described GoogleAds concept used by many Herbalife Distributor teams where individuals are playing with too small of a budget to achieve significant  individual results in useful time. (Useful time means, before Distributors abandon and stop their marketing effort.)

Social Network Publishing by Ycademy

The “Make Money with Twitter” Model lined out in Part 1 and Part 2 has been implemented this week-end by the webmasters participating at the Ycademy Online Seminar dealing with Social Network Publishing and Marketing.

New Generation Websites

The new site scripts, NewsCast by Semiomantics have replaced the original YORGOO Press scripts. The new publishing framework is faster, more image focused and more interactive. The new sites have the same publishing power as all Semiomantics scripts with a Google Top 10 performance second to none.

Seminar participants have quickly adapted to the new environment and customized their sites with ease. Have a look at the professional look of some of the sites resulting from the workshops at the seminar:

[Show as slideshow]

[View with PicLens]

Congratulations to all participants, this was not an easy one!

Social Network Publishing 2.0

The second big issue of the seminar was to implement streamlined Social Network Publishing and to link the NewsCast site to Twitter and subsequently to other social networks.

What was achieved was complete interactivity between the sites and Twitter as well as automated in- and outflow of communication streams, following the YORGOO Publishing Model. Contrary to other Models, Semiomantics Script users remain in total control of their communication flow and do not entrust third party aggregators with the management of their destiny.

Customizing Twitter

One of the relaxing issues was the customization of Twitter where participants showed a lot of creativity and an eye for visual integration.

Examples from Laetitia Paris, integrating twitter to Zoom Terre and Global Sports integrating GlobalSwagger with Global Sports US as well as our new Yvity Site:

This is just the visible part of the iceberg: more work has been accomplished in the background about which we will report shortly after measuring the Google Top 10 performance as well as the expansion of the concerned Twitter accounts.

Conclusion

As usual, the seminar has been packed with goodies, but never before have we been able to knock down such a workload in two days.

Thanks to all Participants who have put their energy and focus to one of the most exciting topics online.

Make Money with Twitter Formula

Our earlier post showed how to Make Money with Twitter, now we will show how to make Double Money with Twitter. The Twitter Money Making Model we are discussing here has been developed by Semiomantics for implementation at the Ycademy Seminar (July 2009) dealing with Social Network Publishing.

Make Money with Twitter

After implementation of the Make Money with Twitter model as discussed earlier, let’s implement a second level for commercial performance.

The Make Money with Twitter Formula is nut just about Publishing Ads on Social Networks, it is also about converting them later into a further cash stream.

The Semiomantics Make Money with Twitter Formula is about recycling Twitter Posts. By exporting Tweets and importing them into a high performance Publishing Framework, the Tweets can be converted into Google efficient content, reaching Google Top 10 ranking and thus attracting further traffic. Where there is traffic, there are clicks and where there are clicks there is cash.

To implement this Make Money with Twitter Formula, we use a Semiomantics Publishing Platform as target for my Twitter exports. Any Semiomantics Script will do the Trick, YORGOO Boosters or Blasters offer the easiest solution.

Make Double Money with Twitter

Now the earning potential from our ads in Twitter get double exposure, once in Twitter, then they can reach Google Top 10 on a Semiomantics site and rake in more cash and finally, we can associate other ads to the exported Tweets to increase the earning potential.

Each Tweet gets a second life with the potential to conquer Google Top 10.

Not understood a thing?

We will implement this model this week-end at the Ycademy Seminar.

Note: This is a Brilliant concept for administrators of WP MU networks!

Social Network Publishing Model

In a recent post we have described a simple social network publishing model to be used to reach Google Top 10 using Twitter. That model was minimalist and simple, however it works very well. This post will give some more details about “how it works”. Yesterdays experiment with the keyword “Social Network Publishing” is a live demo of what this post contains.

Social Network Publishing: Content

At the base there is content. Stuff which may be of interest to readers. In the case of Twitter, people either punch in that they are just brushing their teeth with their mouse or that they have just found a funny clip or an interesting website.

The content is the clip, the interesting post or picture. Publishing to Social Networks means talking about “what we are doing” in respect to particular content.

This is where Social network Marketing comes in: if the content we are posting about is commercial or has a commercial aspect, then the beneficiary of that content gets his promotion. The beneficiary is the owner of the commercial link (affiliate link, sales page, PayPal button and so on).

Social Network Marketing is using Social Network Publishing strategies to bring commercial content in front to a maximum of more or less interested people.

In clear: Your Goal is to funnel your commercial hooks into Social Networks and to multiply them (viral expansion) throughout the Social Network.

There fore it is important to prepare your content before posting to social networks.

Social Network Publishing: Means

The most direct way to publish is from inside the social network, meaning you log in and glue whatever you like to share to your wall.

Posting from inside is cheap, as it is for free. However, the money you save you spend in time. Working just from inside is time consuming and then, you still need a place to send your followers to for the content, which ideally is your website, but which could also be just affiliate links from which you can expect some rewards in case of conversion.

To make things more efficient, I prefer using a personal website from which I can initiate the information flow into Social networks. This website is a typical example.

Then, to monitor the flow and to recover the feed backs, I drive the content of my wall out of the social network, again into my own website (can be the same or a second site. I prefer using a second site or the type U Q Me to aggregate all streams from various social networks.

Finally, I would like to convert the Social Network Feed streams into Google efficient content. For this reason I grab the content from the aggregator (U Q Me) and feed it into Google efficient contextual frameworks, such as a YORGOO Booster or a YORGOO Blaster.

Social Network Publishing : Automation

Once the Publishing Model in place, your processes are highly automated as you only need to initiate the flow of information. You could even do better: you could automate the initiation as explained in the Ycademy Seminar “Set and Forget”:

Automation using technical means or automation counting on the viral potential of social network publishing.

Social Network Publishing from the Beach

Using Semiomantics Frameworks and Ycademy strategies, I can quietly stay at the beach while the web and those hanging out there are working for me :-).

Hey, I have even a better model in store:

Get our of the Google Top 10 Slavery

The Google Top 10 Slavery is based on the fact, that to maintain Google Top 10 positions, you need to continuously update your dynamic content and you must continuously promote your static content.

At the Ycademy Seminar taking Place on July 25 and 26 we will show you how to get rid of the Google Top 10 chains using Semiomantics and Ycademy recommendations for Social Network Publishing.

Social Network Publishing

Our experiment with Google Top 10 and The Diamond of Sancy demonstrate how viral effects are achieved with Social Network Publishing and traditional Online Publishing.

The Diamond of Sancy

The story started with The Diamond of Sancy, an article by Laetitia Paris on Zoom Terre powered by YORGOO Press. This article has been re-published by Lapillon Decouvertes powered by Semiomantics NewsCast. The NewsCast Framework has been configured for French Content and performance on Google France.

Social Network Publishing

We have shown, how the use of social networks helps to distribute our content fast and efficiently. Viral effects in social networks depend on the size of your network and the interest people show for your content: ideally your content triggers readers to communicate about your post with their own networks for example by passing on a link to your post.

Social Network Publishing has its own rules, however the viral effects publishers seek are the same as outside social networks.

Online Publishing

Traditional Online Publishing is about visibility about bringing our content in front of a maximum number or interested people.

The widest distribution of content is achieved, when readers become publishers or re-publishers of your content, multiplying the entries on Google and making it easier for interested people to find your content under multiple variations of key-phrases.

The Diamond of Sancy on Google France demonstrates this principle:

The Diamond of Sancy

Social Network Publishing vs. Your Own Website

In Social Network Publishing  we dissociate our content from our own Publishing Framework, while when we publish on our own site we create harmony between the content and the framework. Advertising is associated with content mainly through the framework.

Social Networks such as Twitter limit the space for content: posting a link pointing to the own framework is a usual strategy. Social Network Publishing needs to take the social environment into account: are targeted people  big readers or just interested in some blurps?

How to Publish efficiently?

From the above we see that we basically have two formats of content: the format for our own framework and the mobile format. Mobile meaning the format we choose for our feeds and for publishing in third party frameworks, such as social networks. Furthermore we need to take into account the growing number of surfers using mobile devices.

The ideal post is therefore published in multiple formats; the excerpt feature on WordPress based sites is of help, as it allows to publish a short concise summary which can easily be distributed. Such excerpts can be in text or HTML format.

To remain efficient the content can be edited, published and re-published in different frameworks, whereas each framework is shaped in function of the purpose and target environment. The YORGOO Publishing Concept and Model streamlines this process as much as possible; the Author edits the content only once. The content is then automatically streamed to the different frameworks or into social networks for environment specific optimized publishing.

Google Top 10 Dominate your Keyword 2

This series of post demonstrates a fast and efficient way to dominate a keyword on Google Top 10. We apply strictly the recommendations from Ycademy and Semiomantics and we expect a tangible result within the next few days. This is day 1.

Google Top 10 Step 5

Social Network Publishing Installation

Subsequent to our earlier post we have registered the 2 domains socialnetworkpublishing.net and socialnetworkpublishing.org.

We have then contracted two separate cPanel accounts from ChiHosters on two different servers and IP addresses.

We have then set up a Semiomantics YORGOO Booster script on Social Network Publishing Net (WP 2.8.2) and a Semiomantics YORGOO Booster Script on Social Network Publishing Org, with a backbone from WP 2.7.1.

We have also configured the two sites according to recommendations and we have posted a first post to each site, making reference to Social Network Publishing.

Note: Both sites are ads free for the time being.

Google top 10 Step 6

Social Network Publishing On-site and Off-site Optimization

On both sites we use a customized permalinks structure  as per Booster and Blaster instructions. We have added the Ping list from YORGOO Booster to Social Network publishing NET and the Ping list from YORGOO Publishing to the ORG site.

We have created one category on each site, “Social Network Publishing”. The Name of both sites is Social Network Publishing.

In stead of using All-in-one-SEO Pack we use a modified version from Semiomantics, a prototype, which, subject to successful testing, will be integrated to Boosters and Blasters in the near future.

Further optimization will be achieved with an unorthodox use of YORGOO Ads.

Google Top 10 Step 7

Social Network Publishing Indexing and Content

Now we are looking for quick indexing (by Google) and for this reason we put some meet on the bone. We syndicate some posts from YORGOO Publishing into the ORG site; the ORG site belongs to YORGOO Publishing.

We also syndicate some posts from Yorgo Nestoridis into the NET site; NET is attached to Yorgo Nestoridis. We edit a few posts to make their content unique. Copyrights are no issue as all concerned posts are from YN.

Now we wait for Google to notice our new babies.

Google Top 10 Step 8

Social Network Publishing: Linking

While we are waiting for Google to index the site, we take the time to add some links to our sites: we create two categories, the blog roll and contributors. Contributors are mainly links back to sites we receive content from for re-publishing or re-editing. The Blog roll will be used for a mix of contextual and commercial sites representing an interest; we use ‘dofollow’ on all links.

Google Top 10 Next Step

For the time being, we leave it as is; we could go and claim the site on Technorati and other bookmarking sites, but we prefer to just post an article or two about the new sites to one of our blogs.

Once we are indexed on Google, we will fine-tune the sites to storm Google Top 10 on our keyword Social Network Publishing.
