Auto Traffic Avalanche–Why I Didn’t Buy

I was on the verge of buying Auto Traffic Avalanche–their sales copy was very compelling and for $39 what did I have to lose. I’m not going to post a link here–you can Google it and find it as it just launched this week.

I was ready to hit the purchase button–and decided to do a search for reviews.

At first all I found were marketers who were touting the product as the next great way to market…but I wanted REAL honest to goodness Auto Traffic Avalanche reviews!

Then I remembered the warrior forum–

so this time I searched for warrior forum auto traffic avalanche
And I came across a thread where folks had purchased it–and their honest reviews.

Anyway, nothing against the developers–I decided from reading the forum not to purchase.

So before spending your money on any product–try searching the Warrior Forum for their reviews. Now there were some good reviews on this product–so I had to make my own decision…and this time it was NOT to buy.

In the past–I have made the opposite decision–and been very happy with my purchase.

Where do you do your research for new products?

Comment here I’d love to hear from you.

Can You Please Make a Decision?

Private Lives Episode HouseI watched the “Private Lives” episode of House last evening…the story line was a blogger who could would NOT make a decision about her treatment without consulting her bloggers.

Needless to say it was frustrating on her boyfriends  part. As I watched the episode unfold–I thought about the many, many folks who rely on other peoples opinions in their decision making process.

Don’t get me wrong–I have been guilty…

But some of you won’t make a move about your business without first listening to every Tom, Dick, and Mary’s opinion. That in my opinion :-) sorry I had to throw that in is just a deadly business mistake.

You’re going to listen to your family, friends, co-workers, their friends, their family…and use those opinions in your business decisions.

So here is my take on this…

If you’re thinking about starting a business online–do what you would do if you were going to start a traditional offline business.

Get your ducks in a row

Put together a solid business plan

Create a marketing strategy

Draft your vision and mission statements

Create solid financial statements (based on research–NOT opinions)

Establish a name

Treat your business as though your financial health depended on it…

and then

GET TO WORK–PUT IT IN ACTION!

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this subject. Did you watch that House episode?

Getting Organized

I have been looking for a way to organize our outsourcing projects. We have tried everything. Google docs, excel spreadsheet, email, and more and nothing was really working for us.

We needed a way to track our projects and all the steps involved with each project. Some projects had multiple to-do lists and it was well a nightmare keeping track.

Then one of my team mates said ENOUGH! and she referred me to Pelotonics. Without sounding cliché’ OMG! We now have a way to keep up with the many facets of our projects and not lose track of them.

I now have ONE place to put all of my projects; including any upcoming ideas I might have. What a time saver.

If you’re just now starting out with a team or you have clients that need updates from you–this is an excellent resource.

Michele Price The Breakthrough Specialist

I want to introduce you to a very good friend of mine.

Michele Price is a power house of high energy. When she first came on the scene she gave so much value to our members I was impressed. Her style of giving is inspiring.

I have watched this lady grow into an incredible online marketer. Her twitter followers will agree; just ask them. I don’t know how she finds the time truthfully; but she does and I am so grateful.

I could go into this long bio about her but that would spoil the fun. Check her website out and make sure to follow this dynamic leader on twitter.

Oh and if you’re struggling to “breakthrough” some barriers. She is the one to call. Listen to what some of her clients have to say:

“Michele is a force to be reckoned with and I mean that in the
best possible way of course. Her ability to build relationships and bring together top leaders in the social media community is uncanny really. Her ability to create viable business networks through the power of Social Media is a true gift. As a full-time Social Media Marketer, I have the
privilege of watching Michele navigate and operate within in these social media environments and she is a pro. Anyone working with her has a distinct advantage over their competition as they learn how to leverage their time into new business contacts and clients.

Michele participates in and facilitates Mastermind processes,
believing in the power of united minds. She tells her clients “When you want to receive great results, combining with the power of a mastermind is key. If it worked for Napoleon Hill & Andrew Carnegie in the depression (and it DID!) then it can generate results anytime”

Named by her clients “The Breakthrough Specialist” she facilitates massive results with a laser-like precision in a fun and delightful manner.

“I’ve worked with Michele to build my freelance writing business
using social media. Her techniques and tricks have nearly doubled my business in just a few sessions. Michele has an energy that is truly inspiring and contagious. Her teaching is the real thing- straight forward, no fluff- just action-oriented steps I can use on a daily basis to build my clientele. I strongly urge anyone who wants to learn to harness the power of social media to grow their business to work with Michele. You’ll be amazed at the outcome- simply amazed!”
Teresa Hall, owner, Write About Everything (AKA TeresaWrites4U)

I watched Michele enter the social networking world where very
few knew her and explode her followers in just a few months. Michele’s authenticity and genuine caring and interactions with others has helped her develop a strong reputation of someone to trust and do business with. I am amazed at how she simply attracts from all economic circles. She is truly someone I aspire to emulate with my own social networking.

PPCWebspy What Took Me So Long?

PPCWebspy is all that it promises. I can not believe I waited.

I’ve been looking at this since I received Brad’s email and have been putting it off. How stupid was that!

I can now add another level to my keyword search when I’m researching for our blog posts, articles, emails and more. Being able to spy on my competition is the coolest thing.

After I downloaded the software I entered a competitor’s keyword in the google search; my PPC Web Spy showed me the competitions keywords. Here is a print screen to show you how it works. I can even copy the keywords to my pc and add to it as I continue my research.
