Keeping track of your various internet marketing tips, tools and strategies can be a nightmare.

You might have file cabinets and book shelves stuffed with books, handouts and home study programs.

And your computer?

Forget it, it has mega-gigabytes of mp3′s, pdf’s and PowerPoint slides scattered across your hard drive.

There is a better way.

My friend and mentor, Tom Antion, has just released his latest internet marketing guide. It’s a must-have, up-to-date, all-in-one resource for your internet marketing needs.

It’s called “Click: The Ultimate Guide to Electronic Marketing for Speakers” (version 4).

It’s 856 pages of content-rich, step-by-step instructions that even the most techno-phobic can follow.

I just downloaded it the other day, replacing version 3. I didn’t know how he could improve on version 3, but he did.

One of the things I like about it is that it’s formatted for easy search.

So, I have the PDF on my desktop. When I have a question and need to research something, I use the Click manual.

The other day I had a question about Article Marketing. I simply opened the PDF and started typing “article marketing.” It returned 29 entries and within one minute I found the information (and a whole lot more) that I was looking for.

If you know Tom, you know he’s a mentor to some of the best online marketers. You owe it to yourself to pick up a copy of this manual. At the ridiculously low price (for now), you’d have a hard time explaining why you didn’t.

Who would have believed I sold my iphone.

It was a 2nd generation model (before 3G or 3GS) and its glass face plate was shattered.

And I sold one of my older laptops to. With the money I received, I’m buying a new iPhone 4G.

I just learned of this site the other day and sure am glad I did

Leverage is your ability to multiply your impact exponentially.  It’s when you input a certain amount of time, energy or money, but get a whole lot more in return.

It’s when 1+1=11

As a business owner, I’m always looking for more and better ways to leverage people, systems and especially, me!

When I find one, I sign up and check out the service.  If I’m happy with the service – and that’s a big “IF” because I have high standards -  I sign up as an affiliate so that I earn a little bit when I tell other people about this success tool (like now).  While I suggest you do the same, don’t tell people about a product or service unless you’ve tried and tested it. Otherwise, your reputation and trust with your members will suffer.

After my experiences managing up to 500 personnel in the military, then having 43 employees in the first business I built, I decided I wanted to avoid having a traditional office and “employees.”

Use independent contractors and virtual systems as much as possible.

One of my favorites is using a mobile business phone system.  It allows me to put up a professional appearance while maintaining a mobile and flexible schedule.  And, it’s a complete hosting phone system for my business.  It allows me to use it with any phone while unifying my team under one phone system.  To me, it’s like magic because I have a single system with multiple extensions that can reach out (ring) team members across the globe, or take voicemail and email it to them wherever they may be.

I can fax from my computer with it, use the toll-free number for customer support and can receive email and desktop notifications of messages while I’m in “Do Not Disturb” mode – which is often.

If you’re in need of a virtual phone system to create a more professional image and unit your team, you may want to check out the same mobile business phone system that I use.  And you get 10% off the first 3 months as of the writing of this article.

Often taken for granted, header graphics on a web site are crucial.

It is the first opportunity to make a great impression on a new arrival and anything less is likely to lose them. A successful introduction will draw the visitor into the site and then provide or effortlessly guide them to concise and functional navigation. Grab their attention. Be convenient. Nothing drives a new visitor away as frustration does.

While a great header graphic is no guarantee of a repeat visitor, a poorly designed header will certainly guarantee against them. The first step to ensuring that a web site header is a boon rather than a hindrance is to develop a plan.

A lack of planning results in a poorly designed header.  A great plan results in an effective header that will attract visitors and up the chances that they return.

Plan to integrate visual elements that blend into the site’s motif. A site should always tie in a visual scheme that makes it easy to read. A header that is overly effective at seizing attention may distract readers and detract from the site’s overall concept.

Pay careful attention to size because it is vital to strike a balance in this area. An extremely large header will certainly grab attention. It will also gobble up valuable screen real estate. It may also inadvertently influence visitors to form the impression that the site is light on content. The flip-side of this is a header so small that it effectively serves no purpose at all.

This is the reason why carousel-style headers have become so prevalent. Used effectively they provide the best of both worlds. The header graphics can be large, loud and eye-catching. It can also alert visitors to the abundance of content on the site while incorporating a lean, central navigation.

Click here to learn about a simple, easy tool to add compelling headers to your website or blog.

I’ve been using a Secret Weapon.

Most entrepreneurs and small-business owners spend way too many hours stuck figuring out the operations of their business.

Me?

I’m busy marketing and you may know, marketers get paid most.

My secret weapon?

Choosing this tool is one of the most important decisions I made when setting up my online business.

Why?

Because, when you’re running a business, you’re trying to set up systems that can run automatically to free up your time, energy and money.

Do you really want to become a slave to new software, or do you want to be liberated by new a new system?

By definition, a shopping cart manages your online sales process.  It’s software that is designed to simulate the same shopping process you go through in, say, a grocery, but in an online environment.

Imagine walking down the aisle of a grocery store and putting the items you want in a cart.  Once you have everything you want, you proceed to checkout.

Functionality you should consider when picking a shopping cart:

• Product creation and management
• Digital and physical product capability
• Calculate shipping and tax
• Offer management (specials, coupons, quantity discounts)
• Multiple order and drop-ship capability
• Encryption to safeguard transaction data
• Affiliate program included
• Up-sell modules
• Database management
• Email broadcast capability and list management
• Multiple website capability
• Integrated, sequential autoresponders
• Ad tracking and conversion ratios
• Recurring billing
• Sales reports
• Tell-a-friend capability
• Pop-up and form creation wizards
• Offline order taking

While not an exhaustive list, getting as many of the features above included in your shopping cart allows you to focus on selling more product and not getting bogged down in the details of finding numerous providers to get the same functionality.

Do you have a secret weapon?

Remember, a business is about leveraging you, otherwise you just have a JOB.

To Your Millionaire!
