<div style="text-align: justify;">
Building a company from the ground up requires a tremendous amount of
confidence, creativity, innovation, motivation, self-awareness, persistence and
focus. It’s the reason why everyone can’t make it as an entrepreneur.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here are some of the ways entrepreneurs <b><a href="http://zackchildress.reviews/tag/zack-childress/" target="_blank">see the world differently from theaverage person:</a></b><br />
<br />
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fZGAGWtYRPI/V7P9_WVU6hI/AAAAAAAAAnw/xwiHv5TT-j4MQ6I8Ks3DB-jEHmJGqetuwCLcB/s1600/MOBE-Training-12-Traits-That-Separate-Entrepreneurs-from-Everyone-Else.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="MOBE Training - 12 Traits That Separate Entrepreneurs from Everyone Else" border="0" height="213" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fZGAGWtYRPI/V7P9_WVU6hI/AAAAAAAAAnw/xwiHv5TT-j4MQ6I8Ks3DB-jEHmJGqetuwCLcB/s320/MOBE-Training-12-Traits-That-Separate-Entrepreneurs-from-Everyone-Else.jpg" title="MOBE Training - 12 Traits That Separate Entrepreneurs from Everyone Else" width="320" /></a></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
1. They See Money as a Way to Make More Money</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When most people get money, whether it’s by winning the lottery or receiving
a bonus, their first impulse is to utilize it by buying something like a new
car. When entrepreneurs receive an influx of money, they search for a <a href="https://goo.gl/QToZWv" target="_blank">smart way to invest it in a business</a> opportunity that can yield an even higher return.
They consider money as a source of their future investments. They make plans
and never think of wasting the money somewhere else. This self-restraint
becomes a habit.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
2. They Have an Ability to Become Intensely Focused</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Time and attention are the only truly finite constraints. Successful
entrepreneurs are absurdly conscious of that fact and tend to become highly
organized and intolerant of inefficiencies. They’re laser focused and try to
maximize their time in the best way possible.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
3. They Manage to Be Positive Realists</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make smart gambles—and that’s what becoming rich entails—you need an
honest appreciation of odds that few possess. Successful entrepreneurs tend not
to be too pessimistic or too optimistic. They know that ups and downs are a
part of their journey to success and, hence, always proceed with a backup plan.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They’re able to understand that, for a large number of reasons, their
venture can collapse entirely. They adequately prepare for difficulties, but
have enough idealism to take on big risks.<br />
Must see: <a href="http://mobearticles.blogspot.com/2016/06/matt-lloyd-on-positive-mindset-during.html">Matt Lloyd On Positive Mindset During Business Hardships</a> </div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
4. They See Obstacles as Opportunities</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Average people see difficulty as a chance to give up, but entrepreneurs see
unexpected challenges as a way to make their companies even stronger.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thomas Edison perfectly illustrated this when he used the accidental
destruction of his production plant in 1914 as a way to rebuild his
business in a streamlined way and get his team to work harder and more
efficiently. Within a year, his company had not only recovered, but was
bringing in more revenue than ever before.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
5. They Focus on Opportunity Cost</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Entrepreneurs make every decision by comparing options and seeing which one
will yield the most value. Whatever they do, they make sure the value created
is larger than the cost of resources used. Regular people tend to focus on
expenses. Remember those driving around parking lots for 30 minutes just to
save 5 minutes of walking?</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
6. They Understand the Business World and Current Scenario Better</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This quality, if not understood better, can prove fatal for a young
entrepreneur and the startup world. It hurts to see bright engineers, who have
an amazing product but have no idea how a business model works, how they will
raise money, or how to market and position themselves in the competitive
landscape to succeed.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
7. They Think of Ideas beyond Their Capabilities</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
True entrepreneurs are always thinking about growth opportunities. Rather
than act practically and work within their comfort zones, they push themselves
into situations that will require them to stretch their skills or force them to
recruit more talent to turn their aspirations into reality.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
8. They Have Vision</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Entrepreneurs are driven by the idea that they have the solution to a
certain problem, and they need to implement it. And they do it without fear of
being mocked or rejected for trying things differently.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Entrepreneurs see something that needs to get done; a product that must be
offered, a problem that must be solved, and they feel so deeply about these
things that they can face the opposition when starting a business.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
9. They Have Something to Prove</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They have high levels of self-confidence, a sense of inner self-belief that
drives them and keeps them motivated; it’s extremely important for them to
believe they are special. They work hard to prove it and realize their dreams.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
10. They Are Self-Aware and Optimistic</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A young entrepreneur needs to have a bulletproof mindset and be able to
influence others even during the worst times. There are ups and downs in
business, and that has to be tackled with confidence. Also, they need to be
well aware of their weaknesses and strengths and constantly build up areas
where they are lacking.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
11. They Are Paranoid, but with Perfect Vision</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I believe the best entrepreneurs develop a healthy balance of paranoia and
confidence. They’re vigilant and realistic while, at the same time, never
lacking the gumption to believe their vision is right.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
12. They Are Intuitive, Creative, Productive, Persistent, Innovative and
Patient</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To sum up all the above points, I think the above traits listed are enough
for someone to become a good and successful entrepreneur and these traits do
make them stand way ahead of other people.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A customer avatar is an imaginary person that describes the ideal
demographic for your business. This avatar is a composite of <b><a href="http://zackchildress.reviews/tag/zack-childress/" target="_blank">many characteristics that describe your target market</a></b>—the customers your
business desires the most. The characteristics will vary depending on
what your company is selling, but will comprise of someone who will buy
from you over and over again.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-v0AHm5-Sv8o/V5sE_JXY3NI/AAAAAAAAAmo/nk6S6zdfesEQVGqK-WqNC2kJsX_LWOm8ACLcB/s1600/define-strong-customer-avatar_101827893_XXL-1024x682.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Matt Lloyd Guidelines: How to Define a Strong Customer Avatar" border="0" height="213" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-v0AHm5-Sv8o/V5sE_JXY3NI/AAAAAAAAAmo/nk6S6zdfesEQVGqK-WqNC2kJsX_LWOm8ACLcB/s320/define-strong-customer-avatar_101827893_XXL-1024x682.jpg" title="Matt Lloyd Guidelines: How to Define a Strong Customer Avatar" width="320" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Businesses create customer avatars instead of just using preferred
demographic statistics because these avatars can ultimately help you
make better decisions. Imagining an individual that has his or her own
backstory that buys from your company can give executives a more
complete picture.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Define but Don’t Limit</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Where does a company begin in determining their own avatars? Think of
video game avatars. When those are created, you have to do much more
than just name them. They are constructed with specifics, in a number of
categories. When specifying your customer avatar, it will be no
different. Establish categories that must be filled out, such as, their
name, a photo, age, interests, family information, psychological traits,
etc. There are websites that provide avatar builders like Mad Men
Yourself and Face Your Manga.</div>
<div align="center">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xTUoP1bWb-o" width="560"></iframe>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Defining your customer avatar is crucial so your business can focus
its marketing and new offerings appropriately. Companies can then tailor
a message that will resonate with customers most likely to buy from
them. Just be certain not to limit your target audience too much. After
years in this business, I’ve discovered that casting a wide net is more
productive. Then, within that big net, people from your avatar’s main
demographic will buy from you. There will also be others that don’t fall
into your targeted demographic that will also buy from you. This
wouldn’t happen if your marketing didn’t encompass this broader
strategy. The last thing you want is to limit anyone from buying from
you, even though they might not fall into your originally identified
avatar.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Marketing</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once you have defined your customer avatar, it’s now time to market.
Keeping in mind that you want to broaden your marketing efforts to a
scope further beyond your ideal demographic, it’s time to place some
ads.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Where to begin? This is where your avatar can be used as a key
advantage. It can force you to brainstorm actual marketing channels that
you would use to advertise and other methods to reach those customers.
It helps answer key questions like the types of ads that would be
effective or the vocabulary and tone that should be used. Just remember
to broaden the scope beyond the rules of your avatar to cast a wide net.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Capture Leads</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The leads that resonate the most with you, will buy from you. You’ll
get these leads with your funnel and lead capture page. These potential
customers will subscribe to your list. They’ll start getting your
emails, your videos and all of your marketing efforts. Introduce
yourself within that messaging, explaining what you’re doing and why.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Final Thought</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One last thing that is very important when communicating to your
avatar’s key demographic: be authentic. Adding personal details, when
appropriate, can help show your authenticity. This will help your
business stand out in a crowded market.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Creating your company’s own customer avatar is beneficial. It
provides focus for marketing and new products. It helps answer key
questions, is a great point of reference, and adds a little imagination
when trying to define your ideal customer.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A content marketing road map can and should be a nice blend between
strategy and execution. To get started, think about <b><a href="http://zackchildress.reviews/tag/zack-childress/" target="_blank">your content marketing road map as a document </a></b>with the following table of contents
</div>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li>What do you want to achieve? (Content marketing strategy)</li>
<li>How will you achieve it? (Content marketing tactics)</li>
<li>Who will do what to help you make those tactics a reality? (A content calendar, for example)</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now all you have to do is fill out your TOC. Here’s how:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UffaHVhXrpg/V5MFbqvq8cI/AAAAAAAAAlk/hxf5NWbUNQEbpuZB55AXHY0_rcjbI1wHgCLcB/s1600/MOBE%2BTraining%2B-%2B3%2BSteps%2Bto%2BDeveloping%2Ba%2BWinning%2BContent%2BMarketing%2BStrategy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="MOBE Training - 3 Steps to Developing a Winning Content Marketing Strategy" border="0" height="213" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UffaHVhXrpg/V5MFbqvq8cI/AAAAAAAAAlk/hxf5NWbUNQEbpuZB55AXHY0_rcjbI1wHgCLcB/s320/MOBE%2BTraining%2B-%2B3%2BSteps%2Bto%2BDeveloping%2Ba%2BWinning%2BContent%2BMarketing%2BStrategy.jpg" title="MOBE Training - 3 Steps to Developing a Winning Content Marketing Strategy" width="320" /></a></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
What Do You Want to Achieve? (Content Marketing Strategy)</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Or in other words, what are your goals? If you’re having trouble
formulating an actionable goal, pick a version of one of the following:</div>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Drive more new unique users to my site.</li>
<li>Get visitors, leads, and/or existing customers to increase how much
they engage with my content or product (trial downloads, shares, likes,
tweets, etc.).</li>
<li>Convert visitors into leads or leads into sales or both.</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These sample goals are a good start, but I encourage you to get as
specific as possible. Make your goals easy to measure by specifying
quantities and time frames wherever possible. Also, don’t forget to make
sure that each goal is well-researched to contribute to your overall
business strategy. After all, content marketing should only be one
component of your total marketing mix.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
How Will You Achieve Your Goals? (Content Marketing Tactics)</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next, you have to align content marketing tactics to each goal that
you want to achieve. How many goals and how many tactics you choose will
depend on the amount of people, money, and technology you have at your
disposable. I personally recommend focusing on a few goals and tactics
at a time. By staggering your goals, you can build a long-term road map
where each phase can be informed by what you learned prior.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Examples of content marketing tactics are:</div>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Rewrite site content to target high volume or long-tail keywords.</li>
<li>Write a whitepaper or eBook that can be distributed via social media or other paid channels.</li>
<li>Build a blog section targeted to leads who are considering a
purchase (e.g., more in-depth product walk-throughs, implementation best
practices, etc.).</li>
<li>Create gated content to collect email addresses.</li>
<li>Recruit influencers to write syndicated content for your blog and to share each blog post with their countless followers.</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The important thing is to map each specific tactic to one, and only
one, goal from section 1 above. Of course, you can have different
tactics support a single goal. This will help keep your content road map
focused and easy to execute.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Be thoughtful about which tactics you choose to support each goal.
Make sure that you understand what tactics are most effective for what
types of goals.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Who Will Do What to Help Make Your Tactics a Reality? (A Content Calendar, for Example)</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A content calendar may sound cumbersome to create, but it’s not, and
it can be a great tool to keep everyone organized and on schedule. A
content calendar outlines a number of basic needs:</div>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li>What content pieces will be created for each content tactic you
choose to pursue—For example, ‘Write a whitepaper explaining how to
calculate build vs. buy for enterprise analytics software.’</li>
<li>When each content piece will go live—For example, ‘Whitepaper will
be published by mm/dd/yy.’ Time each content piece in a way that makes
sense for your overall marketing strategy. If you plan to run a traffic
campaign, make sure you’ve got all your best lead generating content
pieces live by then.</li>
<li>Who is assigned to write or work with a vendor to create each
content piece -For example, ‘The CEO will write a blog post announcing
XYZ product launch. The content manager will recruit influencers to try
the new product and write syndicated content.’</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I used bullet form to explain my point, but it’s best to use a
spreadsheet for planning purposes, where each content piece is tied to a
tactic and each tactic is tied to a strategic goal.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These days, content is being created faster and in more volume than
people know what to do with. Instead of creating content volume, focus
on building content for the right time, at the right point in the sales
funnel, and for the right audience.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
As the founder of MOBE, I find myself juggling an awful lot of tasks and
projects from day to day. I am full of ideas and always motivated to
grow the company. I also love getting out there and meeting people that
have joined the business. The problem is, there are only so many hours
in the day to accomplish all these things—and I didn’t <a href="https://goo.gl/gIPbJz" target="_blank">decide to start my own business</a> so that I would have to work 24 hours a day. You
probably didn’t either.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3kfoOTs0sZE/V4i3pOzg5lI/AAAAAAAAAkE/xAtTPe-NGWMlB3IfJRutg4eS4hBgrHY2gCLcB/s1600/manage-time-lessons-cat_101270918-1024x682.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="How to Manage Your Time: Lessons from the Cat" border="0" height="213" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3kfoOTs0sZE/V4i3pOzg5lI/AAAAAAAAAkE/xAtTPe-NGWMlB3IfJRutg4eS4hBgrHY2gCLcB/s320/manage-time-lessons-cat_101270918-1024x682.jpg" title="How to Manage Your Time: Lessons from the Cat" width="320" /></a></div>
<h2>
Be like the Cat</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I’ve come up with a <b><a href="http://zackchildress.reviews/tag/zack-childress/" target="_blank">model for the ideal time management of a person</a></b> that has their own small business: Be like the cat. Okay, I know
that might surprise you. After all, a cat doesn’t seem very productive
at first glance, but bear with me.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Look at your average housecat. It spends half the day and half the
night doing something it’s famous for: relaxing. Let’s say on average
your cat spends 16 hours just chilling out or sleeping. It spends the
rest of its time eating, washing, hunting, playing, and checking out its
territory.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If we take into consideration that sleeping and relaxing are the
cat’s favorite activities, then this is a very effective use of time! In
total, that’s about eight hours of wakefulness and productivity during
every 24-hour period. That’s about the same amount of time you probably
spent working as an employee.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Essentially, the cat spends the same amount of time working as most
of us do, but arguably a lot more time enjoying itself than the rest of
us.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Time management is all about deciding what you really want to be
doing with your time and then getting your necessary tasks done so that
you can spend more hours doing the things you enjoy. After all, that’s
part of the reason all of us become entrepreneurs—to get the maximum
benefit out of our working hours. Ideally, we needn’t work any more
hours in a day than our cats!</div>
<div align="center">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CSBQ9EZRSzo" width="560"></iframe>
</div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
The Business Owner’s Time Trap</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In an article discussing how to work smarter, not longer
when running your own business, Robert Craven of The Directors’ Centre
says, “Whether unintentionally or not, many of us don’t work as
efficiently as possible some or even most of the time.” He’s
specifically addressing business owners, since we have a tendency to
overwork ourselves and forget about things like food, breaks, and
sometimes even other human beings.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I’m a numbers guy, and a lot of you probably are too. So how does
better time management affect your bottom line? According to the Happy Planet Index,
feeling non-stressed and happy during work results in 31 percent high
productivity levels, and 37 percent more sales. The lesson I take from
this is that we all need to work smarter and more effectively, not
necessarily longer.</div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
Final Thought</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Try to dedicate a specific amount of time to your business each and
every day, and keep a clear list of goals to work on so you don’t waste
time. When you limit your working hours, you’ll discover that you stop
fiddling with unprofitable activities and focus on the money-making
activities instead. That’s the best way to work! If you need help with
administrative tasks, <a href="https://mobe.com/online-marketing-let-someone-else-sweat-small-stuff/" target="_blank">look into hiring an assistant or part-time worker</a> to help you maximize those working hours.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When work is finished, remember to relax and focus your attention on
the things that make you relaxed and happy. Conversely, use your time at
work effectively.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So is your cat awake? Don’t let him think he’s the most efficient creature in the house. Go be productive!</div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The
subject of your email plays a great part in the email getting opened. Create a
specific, direct subject that tells the customer what to expect in the email,

caution against emails with 60-70 characters. Marketers refers to this as the
‘dead zone’ of subject length, and emails with that may characters in their
subject line hardly ever get opened. Subject lines with 49 characters and below
proved to get opened more often.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The
first sentence of an email is critical in consumer decisions to keep reading.
After looking at the subject of the email, customers will actively read the
first sentence to decipher the email’s worth. If you don’t say anything that
interests them within those first few seconds, you lose them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They just move on to the next email out of

people are reading emails from their smartphones. Most smartphones display the
subject of the email and a preview of the first few words of the message.
Because of this display layout, it’s important that your first sentence must
really be something personalized to the recipient’s needs.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Most
email providers will let you know if your email has red flag content that’s
likely to get it marked as spam. Excessive use of sales prompt words like
‘buy’, ‘order’, and ‘clearance’ are likely to send your email straight to the
spam folder.</span></div>

of the words with the most selling power are also among the ones to trigger
spam filters most, e.g. ‘click here’. Words such as this one will get you
clickthroughs; people will continue to click your link and go to your page.
Minimize the use of all other spam trigger words, and only use the ones that
will serve you a purpose.

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The
MOBE affiliate program has consultants all over the world, and this can get
confusing for people on international markets when it comes to promotion.
Should they promote MOBE products in their own localities or abroad, or do
both?</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">MOBE
products are only in English, which is not to say it will always be that way.
But currently, they are in English, and the majority customer base is in
English speaking countries. Most MOBE consultants are based in the United
States, and that is a<a href="https://goo.gl/1DKYfO" target="_blank"> good market to target. </a>The audience is more receptive to
business training, so they are already a step closer to accepting and
purchasing when you promote MOBE products to them. The market is open even to
international MOBE consultants; you are not only limited to your own country.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The
digital age has made it easy to target your ads to specific locations. You can
select the region, country, state, even city you want your ads to be viewed,
and currently you should focus more on the US, because that’s where the
majority of buying customers are.</span></div>

endeavors to bring MOBE products and <a href="http://mattlloydeducation.com/" target="_blank">business training</a> to the rest of the
world. We are currently looking at translating our materials into other
languages—first Spanish, then Chinese and others. This is a big step that will
require a lot of work to be done to come to realization. Live communication is
a big part of MOBE, so the company will have to find and hire qualified customer
support, telephone coaches and live presenters who speak those languages. It
will have to find staff who are skilled in affiliate marketing and can sell
MOBE products in those languages. In short, MOBE will to need to create entire
teams to support the language.</span></div>

that in no way means you cannot promote MOBE products to other English speaking
countries like Canada, Australia and the UK.If you believe you can make sales
in those countries, by all means, <b><a href="http://zackchildress.reviews/tag/zack-childress/" target="_blank">put some of your efforts towards thosemarkets</a></b>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">As
an entrepreneur, you are bound to find yourself facing personality clashes at
one point, be it something as small as someone playing music too loudly to
really big issues like rumors and accusations. Generally, people will be civil
and work together despite their differences, but sometimes issues are such that
they cannot find a common ground and you will need to intercede.</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Below
are a few MOBE training <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>tips that will help you prevent
conflict, and tackle it in a manner that will satisfy both parties and resolve
the situation.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">

</span></span></span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Define

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Defining
what is <b><a href="http://zackchildress.reviews/tag/zack-childress/" target="_blank">acceptable and unacceptable in the company is a positive step</a></b> towards
preventing conflict. Create a framework for decision making that will outline
behaviors in line with the company’s rules and regulations. Also outline a
delegation of authority statement, encourage sound business practices and
collaborations, and reward excellent teamwork. </span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Clearly
define job descriptions so that people know what is expected of them, and state
clearly the chain of command to allow for effective communication. Make sure
all employees are well aware of what will and will not be tolerated. This will
clear up any confusion and misinterpretations that may lead to conflict.</span></div>

</span></span></span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Approach

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Be
neutral and consider both points of view. If an employee reports an issue with
another, call them both and listen to each side of the story without taking
preference. Take an objective look and try to understand how each of the
parties feel. Pay attention to each party’s queries and ask questions.
Acknowledge the emotions both parties feel, but focus on the issue needing
resolution. </span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Acknowledging
emotions does not mean focusing on them. It means accepting that people are
angry, unhappy, etc., and realizing that the emotions are just a byproduct of
the problem. Address the problem, not emotions. Avoid the tendency to attack
personalities or pass judgement on characters. Attacking someone’s character
will only cause defensiveness and have people take offense, and that will only
escalate the conflict. Approach the issue with a rational, <a href="https://goo.gl/zDoPhx" target="_blank">goal oriented frame of mind</a>, which will depersonalize the conflict and separate the issue from the
people involved.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Conflict
is a normal part of any organizational setting; the challenge of conflict lies
in how it is handled. If it’s concealed or ignored, conflict is only likely to
fester and grow into hostile working environments where employees can’t perform
at their best potential. You should take conflict as an opportunity to grow.
Provide a platform to reflect and readjust after one occurs. Doing this trains
employees to face future difficulties with ease and effectiveness.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">When
you are starting your business from the ground, you will probably face a lot of
dark times. Things might not be going the way you intended, you’ll be short of
fund, and have your hands full keeping everything together. It can be
demotivating, and it one of the major reasons most entrepreneurs quit within
their first year.</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">It
is part and parcel of the business world, and the <a href="https://goo.gl/Xa3rNv" target="_blank">only way to deal with it is through a positive mindset </a>and a will to move forward. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">MOBE
founder, Matt Lloyd, like any other entrepreneur, is no stranger to those dark
times. When he started his online marketing business back in 2008, he didn’t
make any commission for months. Even after investing heavily and putting in 10
to 12 hours a day of work. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Protect Your Investment</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">

Lloyd’s most motivating factor during those days</span></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">
was the investment he had made into the business. He says because he’d put in
not only a lot of money, but also a lot of time into it, he was resolute to see
it through to success. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">When
you are facing difficulties with your business, think of the money and time you
have already invested in. You have come as far as starting your business, a
step many people never reach. Now it’s the time to buckle up and protect your
investment. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Because
he could see other people who had become successful in the business he had
invested in, Matt Lloyd said he knew success was possible, and that motivated
him. As a MOBE consultant, you know there are a lot of other MOBE consultants
who have made hundreds of thousands of dollars with the MOBE affiliate program.
Research and evaluate your strategies to find out what they are doing to
succeed, and reinvent your approach.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Matt
Lloyd says one of the things that helped him develop a resolute mindset was the
people around him that told him he couldn’t succeed. There will be people
around you who don’t understand or believe in what you are doing, or they are
just trying to look out for you, so they might try to steer you towards another
path they think would be more fruitful for you. Focus on your business and goal
for success, and ignore all the outside noise. </span></div>

positive mindset will get you through the hardest of times in business. Be
clear of what you want to achieve and go for it. It might take a little longer,

<br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The money is in the list. That’s probably one of the most important internet marketing proverbs out there. What it basically means is that <b><a href="http://zackchildress.reviews/tag/zack-childress/" target="_blank">your lists will determine the kind of profit </a></b>you will make. Build a strong email list, you can get very high conversion rates and make more profit, but a weak list can stagnant your business.</span><br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Email is still a very valuable method of communication online. Granted, social media is the new shiny toy in the internet marketing spectrum, but it is on borrowed land. The social media platform algorithms controls what your audience see,it’s out of your control. When you send email, it is up to you to make sure you optimize your emails for your audience to open it. You also build deeper
relationships with prospects through emails than with social media</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">It’s good to have a large email list, as long as the list is relevant to your product. But there is no use in having a list of hundreds of thousands of people that does not convert, and an audience that has no interest in your
products wont convert. If you are promoting <a href="http://allaboutmobe.com/2016/05/09/mobe-affiliate-program-market-mobe-products-offline/" target="_blank">MOBE products</a> and your emailing list is made up of teenagers, you are likely to get very low conversion. You should be focusing on finding people who are in business and are looking to improve.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Your content is what will get people to open your emails, and what will keep them reading. Optimize your content to offer information of value to your audience.Set yourself to be a trusted advisor by giving proven, expert information that helps them solve a problem, especially related to the products you are
promoting. Structure the content to help your audience see how your products can help solve their problems.<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a></span></div>

He advises finding one really good credit card and making it your business credit card.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Matt Lloyd says he started using a credit card for business after he learn about the lucrative rewards programs a credit card can offer as you spend more. You are going to be making a lot of expenses for your business, especially as it grows. This expenses all add up, and can get you wonderful rewards that will benefit your business. A good credit card will give you points each time you
spend, and the rewards you redeem from your points could be something as
significant as free international flights.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Matt Lloyd also talks about the advantages that credit cards offer for bookkeeping.Keeping all your expenses in one credit card will help you track your expenses easily. You get periodic, itemized statements that eliminates having to keep every single receipt. This will also come in handy during tax time, you can just extract that information and pass it to your accountant, which saves you
time and money.</span></div>

your own business is a scary thing. There is no guarantee for success. Maybe

many people invest in affiliate marketing and fail miserable at it. Some never

you become an entrepreneur, for example, joining a program like the MOBE

your approach to the negotiation clearly.A basic negotiation strategy will

benchmark for all subsequent offers.Once you make an offer, the other party
will either accept, reject, or counteroffer you. The other party might reject
your offer and ask you to come with a better offer.That’s a situation you
should never accept, it’s akin to negotiating with yourself, and the other
party will just keep forcing you to lower your offer until they are satisfied.</span></div>

With the rise of online radio came the opportunity for digital audio advertising through streaming platforms like Pandora and Spotify, but is this latest trend worth spending your money on? Find out in this short but comprehensive MOBE review below.</div>
<div align="justify">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
There Is a Huge Market</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
</h3>
<div align="justify">
Pandora alone has 81 million subscribers, with a large majority subscribed under 'freemium accounts'. These means millions of potential customers will be exposed to your advertisement when the access their free accounts online.</div>
<div align="justify">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Its Targeted</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
</h3>
<div align="justify">
Audio streaming platforms offer targeted marketing that lines your advertisement with your potential clients. This includes people in your local area, and other demographics you might be targeting. So a majority of people exposed to your advertisement already have interest in products like yours, hence conversion rates are likely to be high.</div>
<div align="justify">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Less Clutter </h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
</h3>
<div align="justify">
Most audio streaming platforms offer only one advertisement per interaction. Consumers won't be exposed to a commercial every few minutes, which generally makes them tune off or become indifferent to advertisements. Instead they will hear your and repeatedly through their interaction, which will imprint information about your product clearly.</div>
<div align="justify">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
No Push Marketing</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
</h3>
<div align="justify">
Consumers do not like having advertisements pushed into their private space, for example, pop up advertisement while they are browsing. They might develop a negative view of a company that pushes advertisements on them, and not want to use its products. With digital audio streaming, they already expect advertisement because they are on free accounts. </div>
<div align="justify">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Alternative Audience Engagement</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
</h3>
<div align="justify">
Audio streaming platforms offer more than just advertisements. You can also engage your consumers through many direct interactions offered by the platforms. For example, in Spotify you can create branded playlists with tracks chosen by your consumers. Whenever a user accesses that playlist, they will be exposed to your company information.</div>
<div align="justify">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Conclusion</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
</h3>
<div align="justify">
Digital audio marketing offers a new way to connect with a large pool of potential customers worldwide in a non-evasive manner. It is growing tremendously, and gives your advertisements a unique airplay per interaction. Because of its many perks, this MOBE review comes to a conclusion that digital audio advertising should definitely be part of your marketing campaign.</div>

One question most affiliate marketers and online entrepreneurs usually ask is 'How can I find a traffic generation method that does not cost a lot?'
When addressing this question, Matt Lloyd says this is the wrong question to ask. Marketers should rather be asking 'What traffic method is going to generate the greatest return on investment?'.
He says one of the biggest mistakes new marketers make is sourcing for traffic generation methods with an intent of spending the least amount of money possible. The think that because they spend less on purchase, the expenditure will not cut much into their investment returns.</div>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Investment Return Versus Investment Cost</h3>
<br />
<div align="justify">
The investment price, however has nothing to do with the value it can create. Instead of choosing a lower investment traffic method, study your available options and find the one that will offer the best returns.
For example, a $5 source of traffic that offers you mere clicks, or a $200 source that guarantees a certain number of buyers. Of course the wise decision will be the $200 source, which even though might cost a lot more than the first option, you know you will make good returns from it.</div>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Final Thought</h3>
<br />
<div align="justify">
It's easy to choose the cheapest traffic sources when you are just starting out and have very little money to spend, but the learning curve from can be quite steep. It could take months for you to get it right, especially if you are working a day job and have only so little time to spend. Your time will be consumed by maintaining the blog and creating search engine friendly content, when you should be growing your lists and converting your leads to sales.
So, to answer the question 'which traffic method is going to give you the best return on investment', Matt Lloyd advises paid traffic that can guarantee you actual buyers.</div>

<div align="justify">
Doesn't everybody wish they could wake up on Monday morning before the alarm goes off and, with the giddy anticipation of a joyous and productive day, dash off to their office or studio (or the beach) to make another day's handsome living doing what they love?
<br />
<br />
There are conflicting opinions about the wisdom and practicality of doing what you love for a living. However, finding something you hate could potentially net you a goldmine.<br /><br /></div>
<h3>
What's Love Got to Do with It?</h3>
<div align="justify"><br />
A recent national survey reveals that more than 50% of all U.S. workers are dissatisfied with their jobs. Worse, it's the eighth straight year that The Conference Board has found this to be the case while conducting their Job Satisfaction survey.<br />
<br />
You probably know the feeling—the dread and emptiness that creeps up slowly on you Sunday mid-afternoon. By Monday morning, it's a full-blown feeling of dullness, like sucking the vibrant color out of a rainbow. Time to go back to your no-longer-interesting (or maybe never-was-interesting) job.<br />
<br />
Does a person become dissatisfied with their job because (a) the job actually is a bad fit for them and devoid of challenge, or (b) because they believe they could "do what they love and the money will follow?" There aren't any statistics that answer this question, but it's likely a bit of both.<br />
<br />
The idea seems to originate with Marsha Sinetar's 1989 book, Do What You Love, The Money Will Follow. Criticism of the book cites an absence of solid instruction on how to do it, while leaning instead toward the idea that lack of self-esteem is what keeps people in unsatisfying jobs.<br />
<br />
Sinetar's idea implies that you should somehow be able to make money doing what you love. The fact is, people may love a lot of things—activities they've chosen to do because they love them. These activities don't always translate into money though.<br />
<br />
Wisconsin-based author Penelope Trunk, who has founded four startups, sees absurdity in the idea of focusing one's work life on what you love. In her blog, she writes:<br />
<br />
"So it's preposterous that we need to get paid to do what we love because we do that stuff anyway. I am a writer, but I love sex more than I love writing. But I don't sit up at night thinking, should I do writing or sex? Because career decisions are not decisions about 'what do I love most?' Career decisions are about what kind of life do I want to set up for myself?"<br />
<br />
For entrepreneurs seeking to create a satisfying career and income, approaching it on the basis of what you love may not be the way to go.<br /><br /></div>
<h3>
Entrepreneurship, Ability, and the Value of Hate</h3>
<div align="justify"><br />
Rather than trying to figure out your passion—the thing you love—and attempting to become successful and wealthy from it, you may want to consider approaching it from the opposite direction.<br />
<br />
New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and entrepreneur Grant Cardone suggests that if you want to start a successful business, focus on your talents and abilities: "Everyone has some special thing," he wrote in his book, How to Make Millions in Business. "If you don't, find something you hate and get special at it."<br />
<br />
"Something you hate" is another way of saying "a problem; something that bothers you or someone else."<br />
<br />
The essence of entrepreneurism is solving people's problems … for a fee. An entrepreneur sees a need and fills it; they identify a demand in a market and provide the product or service to it.<br />
<br />
Gardening, cleaning, and painting businesses, promoted properly, can often thrive because most people don't want to do those jobs themselves. It's a problem that people are willing to pay someone else to handle. Web developers, SEO experts, and related internet professions have done very well in the past 20 years or so because, for the average prospect, these technical subjects are daunting—they are more than willing to pay the expert to handle it.<br />
<br />
So, if a person can identify problems—a need, want or set of less-than-optimum circumstances—and has the willingness and skill to address those problems, they can be on their way to profitable entrepreneurism.<br />
<br />
Not everyone has "some special thing." In that case, look around. Is there a problem or need in your life or the world around you? Perhaps something that annoys you that you wish you could change? Chances are, it annoys other people too … and they would pay to have it fixed.<br />
<br />
For instance, a parent became aware of low and declining literacy scores in the schools in her state. She knew that semi-literacy and illiteracy could limit what a person could accomplish in life. But, more personally, she dreaded having to deal with illiterate people. So, she attacked illiteracy by starting a tutoring business in her area. She found that other parents were at their wit's end with the school's failure and were willing to pay someone for results.<br />
<br />
The more people you can solve a problem for, the more money you'll make. Two modern examples of this are Uber and Airbnb—global companies which solve the problems of the high costs of taxi service and travel accommodations, respectively. Uber, founded in 2009, had revenue of $1.5 billion in 2015; Airbnb, founded in 2008, had 2015 revenues of $900 million.<br /><br /></div>
<h3>The Take-Away</h3>
<div align="justify"><br />
Entrepreneurship isn't really about what you love, unless what you love can solve a problem for people … and the more of them, the better.<br />
<br />
While "hate" may be a strong word, look around your city, country, or the world and identify situations that bother or frustrate you or others. When you begin to look at the world in terms of problems and solutions, you will begin to see opportunities.<br />
<br />
If you start a business, you're going to exert time, effort, and money. You can leverage those resources by basing your business on the solution to a problem that affects a larger number of people rather than just a few, thus giving you a potentially larger customer base and revenue.</div>

<div align="justify">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oH8tYoBAzHE/VqheMEmnRNI/AAAAAAAAAKE/0aAw4DfZwP0/s1600/google-redesigns-their-logo-1024x682.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oH8tYoBAzHE/VqheMEmnRNI/AAAAAAAAAKE/0aAw4DfZwP0/s320/google-redesigns-their-logo-1024x682.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div align="justify">
</div>
<div align="justify">
On Tuesday, September 1st, Google released yet another redesign of its iconic logo. This is the fifth variation since the company started in 1998.<br />
<br />
The new design uses a sans-serif typeface, similar to the one used by Google's newly created holding company, Alphabet. The company stated that the new design reflects the way in which people interact with Google products across all devices and apps.<br />
<br />
Designing a logo for your company deserves a lot of your attention. The right logo, by its design alone, has the power to attract new customers to your business. <b><a href="http://mattlloyd.review/category/grow-your-business/" title="Grow Your Business">To grow your Business</a></b>, your logo will be your calling card.<br />
<br />
Making a huge change to your image long after you've established yourself can be as risky as changing the phone number that all your clients use to contact you. It can cause havoc for you and for them. Google however, has only ever made slight alterations and not wholesale changes to their logo.<br />
<br />
For example, would Nike dare contemplate crossing out their iconic Swoosh? There's no need to Google that answer; the Nike Swoosh has become a globally recognisable logo that attracts many consumers to the brand. In fact, prior to 1995, the word "Nike" would accompany the Swoosh on all merchandise. However, due to the instantly recognizable nature of the Swoosh, and as a form of de-branding (to appear less corporate and more personal), Nike successfully uses the Swoosh as a stand-alone brand logo.<br />
<br />
Here are a few points to help you understand the importance of a logo for your business:<br />
<br />
</div>
<h4>
The Face of Your Company</h4>
<div align="justify">
Think of it as a graphical embodiment of your entire company: the values, the service, the ethos. Minute details such as colors, fonts and images symbolize important information to help customers identify your core brand.<br />
<br />
When your business becomes successful, your logo will become your stamp of success; letters, emails, merchandising and marketing material will proudly display your highly recognizable "face" without the need for much explanatory text.<br />
<br />
Take McDonald's' legendary "Golden Arches" symbol as an example. According to an article on Business Insider, a survey by Sponsorship Research International found that 88% could identify the arches and only 54% could name the Christian Cross (as reported by Fast Food Nation).<br />
<br />
When you create a logo that is as identifiable as McDonald's, you're on the right path.<br />
<br />
</div>
<h4>
The Specifics of Design</h4>
<div align="justify">
Whether your style preference is minimal or elaborate, the most important factor is whether your logo is effective. Be sure that you choose design, colors and images relevant to your company so that customers can almost get a concept of your company just by looking at the logo.<br />
<br />
Let it speak to customers in a way that is inviting, memorable and informative.<br />
<br />
Google's colors are instantly identifiable and the lettering is clear, comprehensible, and accessible. It's not harsh or edgy—qualities that would not as effectively convey the character of their user-based service.<br />
<br />
Typically, cutting-edge firms and tech companies tend to have angular lines to convey speed, while service-oriented firms have rounded logos to provide a sense of trust.
Consider the logos of the following tech companies:<br />
<br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Microsoft</li>
<li>Hewlett-Packard</li>
<li>Canon</li>
</ul>
Compare them to the following service-based firms:
<br />
<ul>
<li>UPS</li>
<li>Bupa</li>
<li>Vistaprint</li>
</ul>
<div align="justify">
There are exceptions to this unwritten rule. If you're going to break it, make sure that the final logo doesn't express the wrong "vibe" through style elements that are contradictory to your company's philosophy.<br />
<br />
Know your company. Design accordingly.<br />
<br />
</div>
<h4>
Return on Investment</h4>
<div align="justify">
It's worth noting that a well-designed logo suggests far more professionalism and credibility, compared to a poorly designed, cheaper logo. And in today's market, where mediocrity is not tolerated, it is vital that you expend that extra effort and money on the design. After all, your logo will appear on all of your marketing campaigns, so the last thing you want to do is repel customers with amateurism—defeating the entire purpose of marketing.<br />
<br />
Some of the world's biggest companies spend millions of dollars on their logos because they realize the importance of a good brand and image. In 2000, BP (British Petroleum) spent $208 million (£136m) introducing its current sunflower design. Some companies can easily spend thousands of dollars altering single details such as font and color.<br />
<br />
Over time, as customers begin to familiarize themselves with your logo, they'll begin to trust the company behind "the face" and will be more likely to respond actively to successive encounters with the logo—potentially leading to increased customers and sales.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Many Internet marketers who are just starting out share the same
frustrations about traffic.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Either they can’t get consistent traffic, or the traffic they’re getting
doesn’t convert, or they don’t have $10,000 to test 20 different traffic
sources in hopes to find one or two that are profitable.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But what if I managed your traffic campaigns for you? Would that be a
solution? I’m talking about going and cherry picking all of my proven traffic <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>sources and then placing your ads there. Sound good?</div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
Buying Power Advantage</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The reason I’m asking is because MOBE will soon be opening a new traffic
co-op. Now, maybe you’ve been involved with co-ops before, but this one is very
different. You’ve never seen a co-op quite like this one. I promise.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For starters, I’m personally going to test it first. And I’m going to cherry
pick exactly which traffic sources convert. If they don’t convert, we won’t use
them. Period.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Of course, the main advantage is that <a href="https://mobe.com/">MOBE</a> has a huge buying power—and we’re
in a position to leverage it on your behalf.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For example, let’s say you want to do a solo ad that costs $1,000. So, you
go to the solo ad vendor and ask for the best possible deal they can give you.
The vendor will say, “Well, it’s a thousand dollars, just like it says on the
website.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, if I go to that same vendor and tell him I want to buy 50 of those
solo ads over the next three months, do you think they’ll be willing to
negotiate a bit more based on the volume I’m doing? Of course, they will.
That’s collective buying power and I’m leveraging MOBE’s size and reach in
exchange for discounts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And when you’re talking about spending $100,000 per month on traffic <i>at a
minimum</i>, you can often get somewhere between 30 percent and 40 percent off
retail. That’s hugely important because it can mean the difference between
being profitable or being stuck and unable to grow your business.</div>

<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
Margin Protection</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There’s a saying in Internet marketing: you make your money <a href="http://mattlloyd.review/2015/11/07/paid-traffic-sharpens-your-skills-while-growing-your-business/">when you buy thetraffic</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you’re always paying retail for traffic, chances are, that’s your margin.
And it’s very hard to be profitable when your margin is being eaten up by
advertising costs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But when you buy traffic at wholesale costs—as MOBE will do on your behalf
because we have the volume—you save <i>a lot</i>. You get much, much better deals.</div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
Quality Control</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I’m always on the lookout for high quality traffic sources and, at MOBE, we
know what to look for. For example, we always make sure we’re going to traffic
sources that are constantly replenishing their leads. Otherwise, the same leads
would keep seeing the same offer over and over, and it would just be a matter
of time before they stopped buying.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another way we gauge the quality of a traffic source is by looking at how
often their leads have been exposed to MOBE. The vendors we’ll be doing deals
with have very little exposure to MOBE and the reason is simple: the average
MOBE partner doesn’t buy $1,000 solo ads. The vast majority of them spend
closer to $100 on a solo ad.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Finally, you need to understand that many of the traffic sources I’m looking
at have a minimum buy-in, usually in the range of $10,000.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, these are traffic sources that many of our partners wouldn’t be able to
work with on their own. But with us investing on your behalf, you can gain
access to these vendors—and their high quality, untapped leads.</div>

<div align="justify">
</div>
Forget about age. Forget about past experience. In fact, forget about your past all together. It won't determine your success in starting your very own LifePath business.<br />
<br />
What will you ask?<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Desire. </span>Scratch that, a <span style="font-weight: bold;">Burning Desire</span>. Sound far fetched? Let me explain.....<br />
<br />
I've found that the biggest reason why people fail in starting a LifePath business, or any <a href="https://mobe.com/how-to-be-successful-at-a-home-based-business/">home based business</a> for that matter, is that they go into it with the wrong attitude. If you think that your buying some magic income generating machine, that runs automatically, then think again. Its those that put in the work in the beginning to set themselves up, that go on to make six figure incomes in a<span style="font-style: italic;"> month.</span><br />
<br />
'But Matt, isn't the whole reason for buying a LifePath home based business that you can work less and earn more?'<br />
<br />
Sure- look, I'm not saying that you have to put in 10 hour days. What I am saying is that you must be consistent with your efforts, even if its only for one or two hours a day. Personally, I put in three solid hours, but I'm aiming high. Its not so much about the hours you put in, but rather its about the action you take.<br />
<br />
I've had associates ring me up and say 'Matt, I'm not getting results, what am I doing wrong, why is this so hard, etc, etc'<br />
<br />
Then I ask, 'Ok, so tell me, what have you done today to create more leads? What have you done to develop your leadership abilities? What have you done to help your own team members succeed?'<br />
<br />
And then come the excuses....<br />
<br />
This isn't really a hard business- the system is there, and has been proven countless times. But its up to each of us to ensure we follow it, and to ensure our own team members follow it.<br />
<br />
Here it is;<br />
<br />
1.) Generate a lead<br />
2.) Contact your lead, and qualify whether they are right for the business<br />
3.) Direct them to one of our information sessions- eg a webinar, or website<br />
4.) Call them back, and collect a decision.<br />
<br />
Easy right?<br />
<br />
Till next time my friends,<br />

The hardest phase in starting any business is the beginning. Its here that you either sink or swim.<br />

<div align="justify">
It seems that every week there's some new fang dangle internet marketing tool that is going to change everything.<br />
<br />
Twitter is one of them. It's everywhere. People are talking about it on the radio, on TV... heck, last night David Letterman was talking about it on the Late Show.<br />
<br />
You'd think with all of these trillions of people using it, that there'd be some way to tap into it and promote your business.<br />
<br />
Well, 4 or 5 months ago, I thought that. But to be honest, I've always thought (and I know I'm not the only one) that it's kinda lame.<br />
<br />
I mean, who wants to be sitting at their computer writing things like:<br />
<br />
'Going to bed'<br />
<br />
'Just got a coffee...mmm, coffee wakes me up'<br />
<br />
'My dog is out the window- she is a labrador'<br />
<br />
Do people really care about that?<br />
<br />
Well apparently they do, because everyone's using it.<br />
<br />
So I wanted to get in on this and see if I could get new leads with it.<br />
<br />
I decided I'd outsource it.<br />
<br />
I went on Elance, found a 'Social Media Expert' (don't ask me what the qualifications are for that one) and negotiated a price.<br />
<br />
In fact, I was surprised just how cheap it was.<br />
<br />
$50 for 1000 followers. Bargain!<br />
<br />
The lady expert told me it'd take about a week or two to get a 1000, so it might take some time to build up a following.<br />
<br />
Well, fast forward 3 or 4 months, and I now have over 5,000 followers.<br />
<br />
5,000 fans, who are hanging onto every word I utter.<br />
<br />
And each of those 5,000 have others who can see there page, so there could be <i>tens of thousands</i> of fans listening to me.<br />
<br />
I'm practically famous.<br />
<br />
So you'd think with all of my fans, that if I just tweeted once or twice about <a href="https://mobe.com/topic-start-your-business/">my home business</a> and threwe in a couple of URLs that I'd get at least 10 leads.<br />
<br />
I mean c'mon, 10 leads out of 5000 people...that's like a .001% response rate- I'm not asking for much here.<br />
<br />
Well my friends, I'm sad to say that after having been doing exactly that for the past few months, the total number of sales I've had as a result of my Twitter tweets adds up to....<br />
<br />
0.
Nada. Nilch. Not one.<br />
<br />
In fact, I don't think I've even got one lead. Not one measly lead!<br />
<br />
So now that I'm a little bit wiser, I'm telling you all that Twitter is over-rated.<br />
<br />
It's really all just a bunch of hype, and the reason it's become the hot new topic among internet marketers is because there's so much money to be made on selling courses on Twitter.<br />
<br />
Either that, or maybe I'm just not doing it right (which wouldn't be the first time).<br />
<br />
What do you guys think about this? Have any of you used Twitter and gotten results?<br />
<br />
If so leave me a comment, I'd love to know what you're doing to get results with it.<br />
