Action Step #3...
Tell Your Friends About SBI!... Naturally!
Last week, we focused on creating a "Sig file" (and the
all-important PRE-sig, to make sure that people *read* your
sig). This spreads the word quietly (but surely and
effectively) about SiteSell products at the bottom of
*every* outgoing e-mail you send, day in and day out.
However, this week you are going to be more proactive about
delivering SiteSell's message (in particular, the SBI!
message). And we'll focus on the easiest marketing that
exists on the face of this planet.
I am always amazed at how many people ignore the "low
hanging fruit." Think about this...
We all know tens, perhaps hundreds, of friends, colleagues,
associates, relatives. And here's the best news... they
almost all fit into *one* of our target markets...
http://buildit.sitesell.com/sbi-businesses/
... and SBI! works...
http://buildit.sitesell.com/sbi-businesses/traffic-alexa.html
Best of all, it works and it will work for your contacts
that are e-floundering -- your contact that...
o is too awed by the Net to even consider starting a business
o has a Web site, but no traffic (a super-common problem)
o has an offline business, but has never even thought of how
a site could help grow that business.
So spread the word. They'll thank you for it.
-----
You can make a BIGGER investment in time and energy and
"build the buzz" (if you own SBI!)...
http://build.sitesell.com/tips/buzz.html
... or as little as sending a PREselling e-mail to those
with whom you have regular ongoing contact.
Of course, since this special 6th Pillar Program is all
about "fast and easy," let's send an e-mail! :-)
*** The first key?
Whether it be family, friends, or colleagues...
Do NOT sell.
*** The second key?
Short and simple.
*** The third key?
Wait for a natural fit. If a situation is not a good fit
for PREselling SBI!, don't force it. Wait. Good things
come to those with patience.
For example...
=======================================================
Dear Mary,
I got your message yesterday, and yes, I will be happy to
bring my world famous tuna and spinach casserole to the Pot
Luck on Thursday night. :-)
By the way, remember the other day when you and I were
talking about some way to make a little extra money while
doing the "stay-at-home" Mom thing? :-)
Well, I've done some research since then and found
SiteSell.com. It sells a product called Site Build It!
http://buildit.sitesell.com/YOUR_RR_WORD.html
I'm very interested in this -- I could put a Mexican
recipe site up, all on my own, and earn income in 3
different ways.
Please see the site and call me with thoughts. Who knows?
Maybe we could do it together?
See you Thursday. Don't forget to bring paper plates! :-)
Cheers,
Joan

Nice. Short, sweet, and natural. And note three more key
points...
1) Customize according to each specific person/situation. It
just takes one or two specific notes to make this unique and
specific for this person.
2) Cause a visit to the SBI! Web site to happen.
3) Finally, convert to a phone call or personal demo, where
you cover the next level of key points... the kind of small
business, some good specific ideas, etc.
-----
Once you're talking on the phone or demonstrating Site Build
It! (if you own it), remember...
This is one-on-one PREselling to someone you know, *not*
hard-selling. You could take the conversation in a thousand
different directions, but here are key points to cover...
o know which kind of small business fits your friend...
http://buildit.sitesell.com/sbi-businesses/
o have some good ideas what she could do (or in the example
above, what the two of you could do together!)
o let her know you're an affiliate, so to please use your
link. You'll make your 25% commission, plus a 25%
rebate if you own SBI!, plus a $50 buzz bonus if you
own SBI! and sell through a more active demo (powerful!).
o of course, she *could* do exactly the same thing that you're
doing. But your (and my) best recommendation is not to do
that. She should do what turns her on... cactus gardening,
renting villas in Anguilla, boosting her offline diner, etc.
-----SIDEBAR-----
This would be much more powerful *if* you
owned SBI! and were in the process of
creating your own site it. Apart from
helping you build your own business (whatever
it happens to be), it establishes you as a
real authority on the product, and
"credentializes" your recommendation.
Think about how much more *you* would
appreciate a recommendation from someone who
was actually using the product. That's why
our most successful affiliates have hands-on
experience with all the products they
recommend, including Site Build It!.
Remember that as a 5 Pillar Affiliate, you
are entitled to hearty commissions, rebates
and even a $50 "Buzz Bonus"...

-----SIDEBAR-----
Let's review the keys just one more time...
Do NOT sell.
Short and simple.
Wait for a natural fit.
Customize according to each specific person/situation.
Cause a visit to the SBI! Web site to happen.
Finally, convert to a phone call or personal demo, where you
cover the next level of key points... the kind of small
business, some good specific ideas, etc.
-----
And now, the moment we've all been waiting for...
*YOUR* Action Step!
Open your favorite word processing program, and develop your
own PREsell message about Site Build It!. This will become
your template which you can easily "cut 'n paste" and
*customize* for friends, relatives, contacts, and
colleagues, whenever and wherever appropriate.
-----
First though, an example of how NOT to do it...
============================================================
Hi Jim,
You and I have talked in the past about how nice it would be
to have a Web site and earn a little extra income from the
Internet. But who/what do you trust? I'm like you. I
don't want to get burned by false promises. I certainly
can't afford to waste money.
Well, guess what? I've been doing some research on the Net,
and have come across a great company called SiteSell.com.
SiteSell is owned by Dr. Ken Evoy, a well-known and
respected Web marketer.
Ken's taken everything he knows about selling on the Net,
and incorporated his experience into a tool called Site
Build It!. What is most unique about SBI! (its short-form
name) is that its technology is all out of sight.
It's everything everyday people (who don't know much about
computers) need to have so that they can start off their
online business the right way. The cost is very reasonable.
I'm really excited about this tool and the opportunity it
offers, and I'd love to hear your opinion. Here's the
link...
http://buildit.sitesell.com/YOUR_RR_WORD.html
Let me know what you think!
Best regards,
Judd
============================================================
Doesn't it all sound so "canned?"
Hey! It's easy to be yourself. So just be yourself!
Remember these keys as you create your template...
Do NOT sell.
Short and simple.
Wait for a natural fit.
Customize according to each specific person/situation.
Cause a visit to the SBI! Web site to happen.
Finally, convert to a phone call or personal demo, where you
cover the next level of key points... the kind of small
business, some good specific ideas, etc.
-----
There's no rush. Don't send to your whole list of contacts
all at once. Geez, spam is bad enough...
... but spamming your friends and contacts? ;-)
No, be patient and ever-ready to spot the opportunity...
Selectively insert your prepared PREsell message into the
body of an e-mail. Customize to fit the e-mail and to fit
the circumstances of your friend/contact.
-----
What can I say, except that *this works!* You will make
sales. And making sales builds momentum, especially when
you see how well people/small businesses do with SBI!.
So please, please, please... just get started...
Write a short, sweet, PREseller.
Be ready to use it whenever appropriate. Remember...
Almost EVERYONE fits into *one* of our target markets...
http://buildit.sitesell.com/sbi-businesses/
... and SBI! works...
http://buildit.sitesell.com/sbi-businesses/traffic-alexa.html
Best of all, your contacts are e-floundering, so they NEED
SBI!.
Spread the word. They'll thank you for it.
