During my trip to Israel, a story told by our guide really stuck in my head as a lesson that we must all remember in marketing.  In order to begin to let your prospects get to know you and trust you, “you gotta get them in the door!”  Here is the story that our guide Amos told us about the sales tactics used in the old city of Jerusalem.  While you are wandering the streets, a shop owner will come out and ask you to help him make a sign to post in the window (in whatever language you speak) for a sale, etc…  Then, while you are in their shop “helping” them make a sign, they will get you coffee or tea, then when you are finished, they will offer you 1 earring as a gift for helping them with this task.

I met Andrew at a Rich Schefren event in Orlando several months ago.  He was friendly, approachable, low-key, and he talked more than I do (which is quite an accomplishment!)  I fondly refer to him as “the Brit” because I love his British accent, humor, and nature.

I learned that he teaches people how to market unconventionally on e-bay.  He is known as The Renegade Auction Seller.

His methods are fascinating and I listened intently as he described the premise of his methods.  Well, as the weekend went on and as the months continued after the seminar, I heard more about Andrew and found that he was often attending some large mastermind group or other event with many of the biggest names in the internet marketing industry.

Did you know that you can build your own funnel system?  See, the folks at the reverse funnel system will often tell you that their system is unique because all you do is drive traffic to the generic website and their
funnel system will take care of the rest. Well, first of all it is never really quite that simple.  People don’t generally just drop $50, then $3000, then $300/month without building some type of rapport with the person from which they are buying.  Don’t misunderstand me, some will, but they are few and far between.  The exposure that the prospect is getting is to Ty Coughlin, not to the person that they will be working with to build their business.  Let me help by breaking down this sort of funnel into three simple steps that you can do yourself at a savings of $300 per month.

As a child, my fondest memories are of travel with my family.  My family always believed that material things were far less valuable than lasting memories of experiences when we would travel together.  I am so thankful for their philosophy and desire to do the same with my family.

Just mentioning a few adventures which have led us to Maui, where I was certified at age 12 to scuba dive.  I still remember how my mother would tell me that she didn’t get to travel to Hawaii until she was almost 40, how fortunate I was to be able to travel there several times starting when I was in high school.  Our family was  also led to Saint Vincent in the Grenadines, where my dad (who was a dentist) and the family performed missionary dental work and we had the good fortune to scuba dive almost every day at the beach right outside of where we stayed.  Now the contrast of Maui and Saint Vincent were great to say the least.  I know how fortunate that I was to be able to travel do my certification dive in Maui instead of Blue Hole New Mexico, I was able to pet a moray eel on my first dive in the ocean! It was so exciting, and an opportunity that most don’t get at the early age of 12.

Okay, so I’m on the Kung Fu Panda kick and there is just one more article that needs to be written about this phenomenal movie.  Did I mention that I loved the movie?  So, in the last article, I pointed out that Po learned that the secret ingredient is him.  Now, that said, there is one more important point to mention when considering that we are the secret ingredient in internet marketing.  We are not marketing a product or service, we are marketing the secret ingredient….us!  Now, this secret ingredient needs to be genuine, that is the most important point when you’re putting yourself out there for the whole internet to get to know (or at least a portion of the internet).  People who will watch, read, and follow you will not be fooled by a facade.  You must made absolutely sure that what you say, write and do is in complete alignment with your beliefs and who you are, otherwise it will be obvious to those watching you.

So, I’m at the movies with my family yesterday, and this wonderful movie has great messages for young and old alike, as well as a very important message for marketers. The premise of the movie is this overweight panda (Jack Black who is hilarious), who has a dream to become a great kung fu fighter. His father (who is a goose or something… obvious adoption) is just certain that his son’s destiny is to become a noodle salesman like himself and the 3 generations before. Po, the panda is afraid to tell his father what his heart’s true desire is and falls unexpectectedly into his destiny.

You know what I hate the most? When you go to the grocery store and you’re comparing product prices and not sure if you’ll have enough to cover it when you get to the counter. You need your lettuce, and cucumber for the salad, and the 1 pound of hamburger for your last supper, so to speak. You haven’t entered the champion ring of mental financial judo: “judon’t know if you ju have enough in your bank account.” That certainly is not the definition for financial freedom, or maybe it is if you like financial judo!

Speaking about financial freedom… well, it has different definitions, and if I have to read another financial freedom report, I swear! And don’t get me started on those pointless discussions about women and financial freedom! So here’s my 40 cents to financial freedom guide:

Okay, so you say you want financial freedom right? Well, what are you gonna do once you have achieved ultimate wealth and tons of free time? If you are like most, you will use all of that free time to travel! So, I know what I am doing my free time and money, I want to go traveling the world!

My husband’s family is from Foggia, Italy and I would love to visit the country of his ancestors. My family is from Germany, and I desire to see the beautiful countryside, drink the beer, and drive on the autobon. David loves to cook, and our dream is to do cooking tours.

Now how many of you have similar dreams? How many work from home moms out there have plans for their life that have not yet become a reality because the dream of financial freedom has not yet become a reality?  I recently had a dream come true when we were finally able to travel to Israel with my husband and my parents.  You can read all about it here and see the fantastic photos.
