You Gotta Have A System by John Colanzi

Greetings,

The secret to success is organisation - regardless of what it is you do! Read John Colanzi's article about the importance of having "a system!"

If you're too busy running your business to even think about marketing, have I got a surprise for you! As a valued subscriber, you can "test-drive" Yanik Silver's new "Instant Marketing Toolbox" for a full 10 days absolutely risk-free. Claim your free trial here: http://www.instantmarketingtoolbox.com/?159

You know by now that I feel completely confident about recommending anything that Yanik does - I had to contact him just yesterday about another matter and received a reply within 20 minutes. So you can rest easy when you do decide to take advantage of this offer that you're dealing with a real person who knows what he's talking about and who is always there to respond to your questions.

Here's what's in the Toolbox:

A steady stream of "ready-to-use, plug-in-and-go" marketing tools you can put to use right away in your
business. Take Tool #1 for instance - "A simple way to get your customers to immediately increase their orders 37% - 341% or more!"

You'll get scripts, ad copy and tons of examples to make this powerful concept work for you right away. Literally
90% of the hard work is done for you so you can even hand this off to your staff to get done.

Plus, inside the membership site you'll find three incredible bonuses (all yours to keep no matter what you decide):

 Bonus #1:
 "Advanced Instant Sales Letters" - Not available for any  price, anywhere - this collection of "under-the-radar" sales
 letter templates are the "atom bombs" of marketing. These  are not your typical sales letters by any stretch.

 Bonus #2:
 "Insider Conversations With My Mastermind Group" - Every  month, I meet with my private marketing mastermind group  and think tank. We call ourselves the "marketing junkies"  because each of us has vast libraries of marketing materials  lining our walls - but really we're more like the "marketing  special forces commandos".

 Bonus #3:
 "7 Hidden Psychological Factors To Persuade Customers to  Buy NOW!" - Here's a rare interview conducted with the  nation's foremost authority on persuasion, Dr. Robert  Cialdini. Dr. Cialdini reveals the 7 most powerful
 psychological triggers you can use to get customers to  say "YES".

And there's even more if you choose the free trial of the Gold membership. You'll also get:

  * A pre-done, fill-in-the-blanks postcard or ezine newsletter that you can send out to your customers or
  clients.

  * A success interview with today's top business experts. People like Michael Gerber, Brian Tracy, Robert Allen and many more. And more...

There's not enough room in this email to tell you about everything inside the new private site. That's why Yanik is
inviting you to "test-drive" it - absolutely free of charge - for 10 full days. Look it over. Download all the free bonuses.
Try out the first month's "tool" in your business. Send out the pre-done newsletter. Listen to the success interview. And then email me your opinion if you think we have a winner here or not.

At the end of the trial period, if you want to continue receiving a new steady stream of ready-to-use marketing
tools - just do nothing, and you'll automatically be billed the special low introductory subscription rate.

However, if after going through everything in the first month's toolbox, your verdict is "no thanks," - that's okay,
too. It really is.

There are no strings attached to this free offer. There isn't some long, complicated drawn out process to cancel
your free trial. With your confirmation email there's a link at the bottom to cancel. You just click on this link
and you're automatically cancelled. That's it - nice and simple. No games and no tricks.

Other marketers selling monthly membership sites, of course, are outraged that Yanik is giving away a free 10-day trial. That doesn't bother him because he's always believed one of the best ways to introduce a new product is with a free "sample".

Remember, regardless of your final decision - everything on the site is yours to keep. Of course he knows there will
be a few unscrupulous "free loaders" who'll download everything and cancel the same-day -- but he's not worried
about them. If he has to put up with a handful of these people to get quality prospects like you to try out the
new site - then so be it!

Sign up now for your free trial here: 
http://www.instantmarketingtoolbox.com/?159

I guarantee you'll love not having to suffer through the pain and hassle of marketing yourself!

A small handful of people got a sneak peek at the site - here are a few of their comments:

"The problem is most business owners (myself included) have trouble finding the time and energy to create more marketing materials. We have too many fires to put out in a typical business day. That's why I think the Instant Marketing Toolbox is so valuable -- Yanik Silver has taken the work and sweat out of doing more marketing. He makes it easy to grow your business."
- Bill Harrison, Bradley Communications Corp, rtir.com

"What a deal! A paint-by-the-numbers approach to easy marketing and big bucks! I love it!"
- Joe Vitale, mrfire.com

I'm sure you'll enjoy this little piece that Daniel found and sent in:

The irony of the rat race explained....

A boat docked in a tiny Mexican village. An American tourist complimented
the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it
took him to catch them. "Not very long," answered the Mexican. "But then,
why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the American. The
Mexican explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs
and those of his family.

The American asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"
"I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and take a siesta
with my wife. In the evenings, I go into the village to see my friends,
have a few drinks, play the guitar, and sing a few songs...I have a full
life."

The American interrupted, "I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you!
You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra
fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat. With
the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a
third one and so on until you have an entire fleet of trawlers. Instead of
selling your fish to a middle man, you can negotiate directly with the
processing plants and maybe even open your own plant. You can then leave
this little village and move to Mexico City, Los Angeles, or even New York
City! From there you can direct your huge enterprise."

"How long would that take?" asked the Mexican. "Twenty, perhaps
twenty-five years," replied the American.
"And after that?"
"Afterwards? That's when it gets really interesting," answered the
American, laughing. "When your business gets really big, you can start
selling stocks and make millions!"
"Millions? Really? And after that?"

"After that you'll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the
coast, sleep late, play with your children, catch a few fish, take a
siesta, and spend your evenings drinking and enjoying your friends!"

"After studying copywriting for years and years, I was sure I had seen and heard it all. I was wrong! Dan
Kennedy's Copywriting Seminar introduced me to at least a half dozen new insights and techniques that will almost
certainly double my profits in my business this year. I'd be missing out on tens of thousands of dollars if I hadn't
attended this seminar." (
Peter Louis Kacynski, Springfield, MA)

You Gotta Have A System
by John Colanzi


I'm sure you've read ads telling you how to make a "boat load" of cash overnight. The promoter tells you how much
they made sending out their announcement.

The orders started flooding in.

The statements are probably true, but the promoter has left something out of the equation.

They haven't told you, the product didn't make the profits. Their system did.

Study what any of the "big boys." I guarantee they have a system.

I can tell from reading my email, many marketers are looking in the wrong direction.

Here's a typical question.

"I just looked at your program and wondered if you're really making money with it."

They are looking in the wrong direction.

Number 1. I don't promote anything I don't make money with.

I don't have time to waste. If something doesn't make money it's taking time and resources away from something that will.

Number 2. The product isn't making me money.

I am.

I've been online long enough to develop my system.

You have to build your business one day at a time. As you build your business, you'll develop your system.

I remember as a little kid visiting my Uncle Bill. Uncle Bill had a corner store in South Philly. On every visit, Uncle Bill would call all of us into the dining room. He'd turn to my mother and say, "Mommy Naomi you tell them."

My mother would always turn to Uncle Bill and say, "Uncle Bill, Ya gotta have a system."

Uncle Bill would get a big smile and say, "Hear that boys. Mommy Naomi knows."

We would laugh. We never understood how true those words were.

Now I realize so many years later, my mom and Uncle Bill were sharing "Pearls Of Wisdom."

If you're serious about your business, heed the words of advice from my mom and Uncle Bill.

Ya Gotta Have A System.

Wishing You Success,
John Colanzi
