Erica's Elite 4 Daily Commitments

I've been all over the place lately, looking for the best possible ways to become a leader in this industry I've tried a lot and I've invested a lot and throughout it all i realized i needed a bit of structure. I needed to "settle down." When I ran across MLSP 5 days ago it was the best thing i could ever do for myself. The path i was going down before, trying everything and anything to "get me there quicker." Were just getting me in debt quicker and nowhere near my goals. From MLSP I've learned a lot of the leaders making 6 and 7 figures a month used to struggle with "settling down" as well but when they finally sat down and regained focus that's when they actually began to see results. So I sat down the other night and i brainstormed the things i was already doing daily which were getting me results. Once i brainstormed and came up with a list and i organized it in a way that i could do it each and every time i got in front of the computer...i called it "Erica's Elite 4 Daily Commitments" With this list written down it made the idea of structure a lot easier since sometimes i can be a little attention deficit. (Let's just keep that a secret) Anyway let's get to this list..

Erica's Elite 4 Daily Commitments

Step 1: Blog 

Using various different blog platforms write one post on your main blog and copy and paste it to your others making sure to use tags for search engine optimization. Doing so will increase your chances of being discovered from someone doing a google search, this will in turn possibly be a targeted lead.

Step 2: Vlog

Make a video either daily, or as often as you get an update in your life sometimes people like to see others progress before they decide to join your team....some people are on other teams looking for guidance from people in the same walks of life...great for encouraging others. Be sure to use relevant tags also for search engine optimization for the same reasons listed in step 1. 

Step 3: Be Social

Facebook,Twitter,Ibo-toolbox,LinkedIn,Pinterest, and many other different social media sites will increase your familiarity and popularity to others. People will remember your name and what you do in life they will also remember if you were the only one who would answer their question in a Facebook group or something else similar. Always be friendly and speak of relevant topics, and make sure you're never pitching your opportunity to others unless they come to you and ask what it is that you do. Just play it simple and do normal things you would do with your personal social media sites just with your business mindset. Give encouraging words to others or just post encouraging words as your status you never know who may need it.

Step 4: Empower Network Core Commitments (optional)

As i am a member of Empower Network i have commitments with their program they are mostly what i based my own commitments from they are as follows:

-Blog Daily
-Market Daily (Advertise)
-Coach New Members (Prospecting Leads)
-Empower Hour Daily Calls
-Daily Audios (Listen to trainings from leaders)
-Read Daily (Study Study Study!)
-Attend the Events (Be an active member of your primary company)

My Lead System Pro

As i said in a previous post I'm currently in a 14-day trial with My Lead System Pro or MLSP. It's everything i needed in an informational product and everything I've been searching for. Things i would usually go to YouTube for are all included into this wonderful amazing website (better quality info i might add). It's not only informational videos however it's like a reference library written by 6 and 7 figure earners in the internet marketing industry to teach you ANYTHING  you would ever need to know....and it's constantly updated so you'd never be out of the loop. There are 100s of videos..if not 1000s ranging from 3 minutes to 3 hours each. I know for sure this 14-day trial will not be enough time for me to absorb so much information. There's Social Network Marketing Strategies from Facebook,Twitter,LinkedIn,and Meet-up Groups. There's Content Marketing Such as Keyword Research,Blogging,Article Marketing,and Video Marketing. Next they teach Paid Marketing on things like PPC,Banner ads,and Solo ads. And tons More ! I've already spent so many hours soaking up as much info as possible and implementing strategies however i doubt I've even put a dent in the website. I believe for a final investment in a product (meaning I'm not buying into anymore programs) it's definitely one of the best decisions I've made, besides the decision to actually be in the Internet Marketing Industry. To watch a free 46 minute webinar from MLSP on Article Marketing Click Here! A lot of BIG NAMES out there in the internet marketing industry started with MLSP....Take charge of your future..if you don't invest in anything else and you're serious about learning everything from start to finish invest in this wonderful company...you get full access for 14 days for $9.95 and honestly that's a steal...you won't know until you try it out however....Test MLSP for 14-days!

A very helpful and great mentor for members of MCA

If you're a member of MCA you would know by now a few of the big names of people who are making tons of money with MCA. I'm not at that status yet but i pay close attention to their Facebook walls and groups and blogs. One of my favorite people to learn from is Krystal Taylor. Unlike a lot of the big names she does a lot for a her team...and not only her team but anyone who needs help. A lot of people get you with a line like " join my team, I'll help you, but only if you join my team" only to leave a lot of people signed up under them with no idea about what to do and where to start. I was one of those people who fell for that line..but i didn't sit and complain and cry about it because prior to even being able to join MCA i studied day and night finding tons of information about how to market it. This website helped me a lot I'm sure it will help you a lot...it's full of free valuable information..very similar to what I'm doing here with my blog but a little more fancy Check it out!

Your valuable content

Whenever I google "ericaselite" my "brand" I get so excited all types of different pages with my name fill up the google search...from my ads to my blog posts to my youtube videos its a very great feeling and it just let's me know I'm working hard getting that content out there...I never would've thought I could fill so many google pages in less than 30 days.....I'm nowhere close financially to where I want to be...but as far as my name goes I'm definately getting to the point where I can say "google me" ....I could actually say that now :) go ahead give it a try Erica's Elite is on the map....remember content = cash! Get out there and start branding yourself....its not so hard once it becomes a habit.

Consistency is a Great Challenge we face!

Consistency is often times the very thing a lot of internet marketers struggle with. Mostly when they're newbies and sometimes even in the intermediate stages. There is always a new informational product or new opportunity out there....with newbies being used to being the consumer and not the producer they often times find themselves being sucked into more and more sales funnels spending money on every single thing only to realize they still have no clue how to market any of it leaving them with less money than what they've started with and tons of products that are sometimes useless. Its something I've realized about myself actually and even though I've been very good not buying everything I am guilty of the free things....every lead capture page I could find to leverage one of my businesses I was all over it....and every free e-book I was reading....I was setting myself up for information overload causing confusion and frustration...I felt like if I did all of the best things I couldn't fail...WRONG ...its finding the best thing that works for YOU and sticking to it....stick to whatever gets you results and work from there..my mistake in this is that I was doing so much I didn't know what was working and what wasn't.....so my one thing I bought into for the first and last time the one thing that will help me leverage my businesses the thing I will use and stay consistent in...well first off its social media something I could never go wrong with...then it's my lead system pro ...the video presentation was interesting but it got even more interesting when I saw two people from one of my businesses, one is my mentor's mentor, the other is the co founder of my business....both 6 and 7 figure earners...using this simple system...I definately had to join!

With failure success soon follows

So today i finally got my first check with MCA i don't even remember what exact day i joined but i know I've been in for about 2 weeks. Anyway i want to be honest with you guys i honestly think i got lucky with MCA i had no idea i would be successful because i joined empower network before MCA i was expecting instant success and i was not as successful as i thought i would be (yet) but one thing i want you guys to know is that even if i don't see instant results i won't give up. I also realized money is not the only thing to benefit from in these companies. MCA is beneficial all around check out some of the benefits here. Empower Network is also very beneficial at the 25 dollar level you get a blogging platform optimized to get you high ranked in Google and many other search engines, as well as having 8 videos that teach you steps you can apply to your daily life in empower network as well as any other business you apply it to. To be honest i was not expecting to make any cash especially not in my first two days...and not only did i make cash but my team immediately began to make cash. Just find out the best techniques that work for you and apply them...whatever works keep doing it. It's that simple guys making money online is not as hard as it seems, there is no way you can fail if you stay consistent in what you do..don't beat yourself up if you don't immediately start to see results those things will come later probably faster than you may even realize. I want to encourage anyone and everyone out there who reads this to take a shot at whatever you may think about doing. And the only way to fail is if you give up before you see results. Thanks for the read enjoy your day!

MCA Empower Network GVO and the EZ Money Method 2X

A typical day in the home office? Not at all ! In a previous post i mentioned how Mack Zidan's 4080 method which was beta tested by 2,100 people for a week was now free. Instead of Mack Zidan charging the people who signed up for it $20 per month when their trial period of $1 was up he decided to refer us all to another system that was not only based around MCA but also, Empower Network and GVO. And it's FREE to join! This new system is called the EZ Money Method2X. OK, so you would think everyone would be pretty accepting for being referred to this and to save $20 next month...But boy was i ever wrong i got notification after notification in one of my primary groups in Facebook which is pretty typical, especially since that's where most people market nowadays. Today was different though i decided to take a look and to my surprise people were not thanking Mack for the new system but they were instead saying he was scamming people and trying to get their leads and this and that. It was absolutely insane. I was never bothered about the whole situation because i knew what was happening as soon as it happened unlike a lot of other people who were using the system they found out about the switch days later after confusion arose in the air and the sabotaging began. Things got entirely out of hand entirely toooooo far out of hand ! but on a lighter note i must admit Mack is very trustworthy in my eyes and i don't blame his anger towards those people in that group they didn't appreciate a thing he was doing for them instead they believed that bad things other people would say all because they didn't get the memo about the switch. I believe the lesson a lot of people learned today is to stay current in everything you're a part of. Things become obsolete in a matter of seconds in the internet world.Try this free method for yourself !

Content Equals Cash !

In today's busy internet marketing field competition is at it's peak. Not to worry there is always a way around an obstacle. The best advantage you have against your competition is ORIGINALITY and PERSONALITY. People who struggle with internet marketing are always the newbies who are just beginning to learn how to market online. Do you know only 3% of internet marketers make it? The reasoning behind this is people don't know how to market and they give up because they aren't making any money. The one's who persist, find out what works, and stay consistent and patient. Once an internet marketer finds what works for THEM and they stick to it there is no room for failure. Do you want to be a part of the 3%?

Where is the best place to have originality and have your personality shine through? Every place you can possibly be on the internet ! You must learn to be social on various places online. As I've said in earlier posts people want to know and trust you, before they want to join you in business. With all the scams out there who can blame them. It's so hard to find out what's real and what's fake nowadays some people want to know that they won't be taking a risk making an investment into their future. So instead they'd rather watch other people's success first...they look for people who are original and "real."

You must stay current, know what's going on, and you must be able to explain things in various ways. The best way to do this directly,as well as indirectly is through your content. Your content is your videos on YouTube that you load up with keywords using the Google Keyword Tool. As well as your blogs and what you say and do within social media. If you have the patience, the originality, the confidence, the content, and the drive to make success happen in internet marketing, if you feel you have what it takes to make it to the top 3% where competition will be a thing of the past join my team!

Free or Low Cost Online Jobs

Often times newbies to internet marketing want to make money as soon as possible, they are eager, they have high expectations, and they want all of this with no risk. I used to be this way so i know exactly how it feels. I've sat through video after video that promised to make me money overnight  for free. Sorry to break it to you but there is no free way to make money online. Now i say it like that because sometime eventually you will spend money it may not be on the system that is designed to make you money but small amounts will probably pop up, things like set-up fees, or "credits" I put together this list of Free/Low cost money making opportunities because i know when you are first starting in a business you may need the money right away and even $20 can be a stretch. I've been there believe me ! (This list will continue to grow as i find and test new opportunities)

Instant Payday Network

Instant Payday Network is a system based around incentive freebie websites or IFWs. IFWs offer services from fortune 500 companies like Netflix,Gamefly,Proactive,etc. Big companies like those are finding it more difficult to reach their target audiences because television advertising is not as effective as it used to be. Reason behind that is mostly DVR and TiVo, more people are watching pre-recorded programs and fast forwarding through commercials. However, they've figured out a way to reach their audience through the internet which is where the majority of people are in this day and age websites like Instant Payday Network offer low cost, or trial offers from these companies. When you refer people to websites like these and they sign up for a product or service the company will give you money. If this is something you feel you could do click here to get started!

Project Payday

Project Payday is very similar to the Instant Payday Network, there are 2 main differences however one is a refferal program within Project Payday itself, and also more in depth training on IFW sites.

Clickbank 
 Clickbank is free to join. With clickbank all you do is sign up as an affiliate, (or vendor if you have an informational product to sell such as an e-book), and what you would do after is go into the marketplace and pick an item that you want to sell for a vendor (preferably something in your niche) and click promote..you will then get a link to promote the product. When the product is promoted by you and someone buys that product the vendor will pay you a percentage. 

Mack Zidan's 4080 Method Now Free !

Each and everyday I do whatever it takes to ensure I'm off to a great start in my internet marketing business. That's all either a blog post, studying, or using systems to help get sales. If you know about Mack Zidan on Facebook, you would know last week he launched a system called the 4080 method this method was very effective at helping Mack get leads as well as the people who also signed up for the system. The 4080 method was specifically designed for those who are members of MCA. It included a lead capture page and an auto-responder. I got to beta test it firsthand and as far as getting leads it was great. I must admit once it went "viral" my leads started to decline but the best part is i have a small list started and i can use that list for anything i want now. Mack decided not to continue with the 4080 method as a $20 monthly fee and a $1 month trial. Instead he wants to see the 2,100 members who signed up for the 4080 method succeed with a free method that is based around not only MCA but also GVO, and Empower Network. As i am already a member of both Empower Network and MCA, I decided to sign up for GVO this weekend when i get paid just so i could put this new system to work. Since i was having a hard time with getting leads for Empower Network, i was even debating whether i should stay in or not but this new system gives me hope and promise. With my first check from MCA which should be $160 I will begin to put this system to work and hope for the best.


**MCA is short for Motor Club of America, when you sign up for a base fee of $39.95 (it's $20 a month thereafter) you will be able to make $80 for each person you refer to the service click this link and Sign-up for MCA Total Security Motor Club! 
**GVO is an email auto-responder with video hosting,web hosting,and a conference room to communicate with your leads. Now the reason i decided to go for this instead of a free auto-responder is because there is a compensation plan as well. There is more to be explained about GVO and i will include a link that will provide more info this link will also take you to the system I'm using for MCA and Empower Network 

Take charge of your future today, I'm only 19 and I've been doing this less than a month already I've made $160 in my first week in MCA.

Marketing Website Descriptions

After you've joined your online business that promises to make you money overnight you're probably very eager just to bring someone in under you to see if this thing really works. For some of us we have instant success finding our first person with little to no effort while others find it rather difficult. The first week is a crucial period in a business, it should be spent setting yourself up for success. Sometimes we get so used to being on the sidelines that we go into shock when we're finally put into the game. So preparation and practice is required as well as consistency and routine.
Marketing strategies will get you there. Below I've compiled a list of websites I use to market my businesses with detailed descriptions. Enjoy !


IBO-TOOLBOX
(http://www.ibotoolbox.com/invited.aspx?jid=39171)

With IBO-TOOLBOX I've managed to have a video of mine indexed on the first page of Google within 48 hours of joining. It's geared towards internet marketers from many different places, backgrounds, and companies. I'd advise you to have something to advertise such as a video, or affiliate link before joining to increase your chances of being indexed in Google. I want to stress that your content is yours and original to have the best success as far as indexing goes. Now, a little more about Ibo-toolbox first off it's absolutely free, you can use it to advertise you business, generate leads (people who are interested in your business), manage your contacts, share media, and build sales teams. When you sign up there will be step by step instructions to help you get off to a good start. Once you're set up you will have an "Activity Analyzer" on your dashboard that has Green or Red indicator arrows which indicate whether you've done everything for that day in order to be successful in your business. If all of your arrows are Green you've done everything you needed to do for the day if you have some Red arrows the red are the tasks still needing to be completed. To sign up click the link above. Good Luck!

YouTube

YouTube has increased in popularity so much throughout the years it's your portal to people all around the world. It's your ability to be everywhere at once. I hope you aren't shy ! Making videos and posting them to YouTube would probably be one of the best marketing strategies you can use. People will learn your personality and feel connected to you, the will even sometimes feel like they know you. When the proper techniques are used you can create quite an influence on your visual audience which earns their trust when trust is earned in business money is soon to follow ! The best techniques and strategies are to stay on topic and to stay up to date. Always use relevant tags that pertain to your videos and also use an eye catching title. YouTube is free start making videos ! 

Craigslist

When it comes to Craigslist, marketing can either be great, or horribly frustrating and tricky. People have abused Craigslist so harshly with spam that it has become very strict, with many different rules and guidelines. They've put many limits on what you can post, how often you can post, and where you can post. My suggestion on marketing with Craigslist would be to post a detailed description of your  business and including contact info such as your email or phone number and not your affiliate link or website. A lot of postings with links are immediately deleted or marked as spam by other users. This method has never been one of my favorites but certain things work for certain people. I'm just not one of them. Craigslist is free ! Start Posting !

Internet Marketing 101

Hello everyone out there I'm Erica E. Jones, 19 year old entrepreneur/internet marketer, if you're on this page you probably don't know much about internet marketing or making money online but there is plenty you'd like to learn. You're in luck I'm here to teach you everything I've learned since starting in this industry. You could be up and running as soon as an hour or two possibly less considering your ability to learn and implement my skills and strategies.
5 Steps to Succeeding

• Joining a Business
• Marketing your business online
• Social Media/Branding Yourself
• Creating Content
• Word of Mouth/Offline Marketing

Each step above is important, but not necessarily needed right away, however to make it in this industry in the long run implementing them all as soon as possible is rather important as far as becoming a leader and not a follower in internet marketing goes.
Step 1 : Joining a Business

• Find the business which interests you and sign up, a lot of the best businesses require either a small or large start up fee (there are some businesses that are free to join but they could require cash sometime in the future) do not let this start up fee scare you it's just the same as if you would be starting an actual business in the outside world it takes money to make money. *Always do your research on anything before joining.

Step 2 : Marketing Your Business Online

• After you have joined the business or businesses (I recommend 1 or 2 for beginners) you must begin to market it in as many unique ways as you can. In the internet marketing industry there are people who scam, people who spam, and people who help others. Because 2 out of 3 different types of internet marketers either scam or spam it makes it difficult for the people who actually want to help others make money online.
• Some popular ways to market are, Posting on your Facebook wall to your friends and family, Ads on Facebook to a targeted audience, Ads on Twitter, YouTube videos, Blogging, Classified Ads, and Banner ads just to name a few.
• The internet marketing business is growing in popularity rapidly every single day it's where all the money seems to be, standing out has a lot to do with how you present yourself to others. A lot of marketers with no experience spam a lot of websites with their referral links to their company websites (I'm guilty of this) and to be honest it has little to no success rate.
• What the people want is a REAL person they can TRUST that is going to be there to help them and not just send them to their affiliate link to make a quick buck leaving them out in the cold.
• The key to being successful is having lots of consistent helpful content in your marketing niche (targeted audience) for example this same blog post you are reading is targeted towards anyone interested in making money from home who need a step by step guide helping them get started.

Step 3 : Social Media/Branding Yourself

• Having any type of shot in the internet marketing industry with it's increasing popularity will have a lot to do with the "face" of what you represent. Some examples of these "faces" or "brands" are Bill Gates being known for computers (and having tons of money!) Oprah being known for talk shows (..and also having tons of money) and lastly, one of the newer "faces" is Mark Zuckerberg creator of Facebook.
• The point being made here is to put yourself out there on as many social media platforms as possible this is one of the best ways to reach your targeted audience a lot of people are searching right now into the Google search bar keywords that could possibly one day bring up your blog, your Facebook account, your Twitter account, your YouTube account, and so on the more you have the better the odds are of having people find your content.
• The more popular you become the more you become a trusted "household name" to your targeted niche, the more popular you become the more people will trust you, the more people trust you the more money you can make, the more money you make the more successful you become, the more successful you become the more people you attract, and so on.
• This step is THE most important step you can make, and in today's society it's crucial. people are not a gullible as they used to be to ads such as "get a free laptop click here!" People have fallen for tricks and schemes like that over and over which has caused a lack of trust on their part. Your job is to convince them that everything on the internet is not a scam your face, your brand, and everything you stand for is important in gaining trust .
• The most frequently asked question in our industry is and probably will always be "Is this a scam?" Get used to being asked this question plenty of times and be prepared to give a detailed answer as to why it's not (some people are hard to convince)
• One last thing I'd like to address with the internet marketing industry is to have personality and be creative, a lot of people post ads on Craigslist, a lot of people make YouTube videos, a lot of people have Facebook accounts, just like in the entertainment business people have unique voices, and styles and no two people are alike however, since this is not the entertainment business a lot of people learn from other people and it seems to be a lot of duplicates in this industry I really want to push that you stand out the best way you can and be as unique as possible
• What works for you may not work for someone else and vice versa so do what works and stick to it!

Step 4 : Create Content

• This can be one of the easiest, or one of the hardest steps. It goes hand in hand with Step 3, and can very well create income streams that work on auto-pilot around the clock if done correctly.
• In step 3 you began to put yourself out there on the World Wide Web after some time and through some consistency you will begin to grow an audience. No matter how big or small your audience is you want to keep their attention and the best way to do that is to be consistent and communicative with them. If your audience continues to grow it makes no sense to start changing the way you go about things, especially if they enjoy what you do and everything you have to say.
• Your content is everything you do to market your business, it's blogging, it's doing videos, it's being active and social with "social" media. But the most important thing i want to stress here is CONSISTENCY!

Step 5 : Word of Mouth/Offline Marketing

• Of all of the steps this will most likely be one of the easiest depending on how you go about it. Please remember to be a person and not a walking advertisement.   Advertisement is evolving and changing for the new generation. People nowadays want proof and they want trust, they also want to feel safe before they make their final decision. The main fear of the people is to  scammed, this is most likely due to money being tight. With money being tight people want to make sure that when they spend it they get their money's worth I like to call this a "happy investment"
• With offline marketing you could begin with your family and friends but don't pitch anything to them right away, be patient, I'd just advise you to tell them that you joined an online business and when you start becoming successful in it and find them struggling to suggest to them what you did to make money online, how it has helped you, and just see if it's something they think they could do.
• I stress the "something they can do" part because a lot of internet marketers make it seem like internet marketing is so easy a 5 year old could do it, this has never been the case there is simplicity to it but simplicity does not mean anyone can do it. Not everyone is computer savvy, there is a lot more that goes on behind the scenes make sure to let people know up front what to expect or they may never trust you again.
