This will be a very quick tutorial on how to create banner ads.

Sometimes people get a little unnerved by the html code or the other terminology used. So let’s break it down. When you place a banner ad most of the time it will require you to make two entries, a banner url and a target url.

The banner url also referred to as the image source (img src) is the location on the internet where your banner can be found.

The target url answers the question, “once someone clicks on your banner, where do you want them to go?”  You may want the person clicking on your banner to go to your affiliate link or to a splash page or a lead capture page (where you usually have to fill in your name and email address in order to get more information like a free ebook, for example)

The banner name can be a nickname you have assigned to your banner so you’re able to differentiate one banner from the other. For example, GDI ferrari to me represents the red GDI banner you’ve probably come across while you’re surfing.

Ok, for pretends let’s set up a banner campaign using my PTC Income Today Banner.

For this example I will use a fictitious affiliate id name of billybob

Where on the internet is my banner located?

Banner url: http://ptcincometoday.com/images/468-60.gif

When someone clicks on my banner, where do I want them to go?

Target url: http://www.ptcincometodaysystem.com/r/billybob/home.html

Now let’s say, I wants to show a banner on my blog or  website. I could accomplish the whole thing by using html (hyper text markup language). If you don’t know html, no worries.

If you only had the html code you would be able to easily find the target url and the banner url in between the parentheses.

<a href=”http://www.ptcincometodaysystem.com/r/billybob/home.html“>                           <img src=”http://ptcincometoday.com/images/468-60.gif“></a>

Hope this helps!

#52 Law of Success
Most Laws of Success are short and sweet, but so
very important to YOUR success!  As the saying
goes, sometimes less is MORE.  Pay attention.
The laws always work when YOU apply them.
-=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=-

Ask for clarification.

Instead of wasting time and possible negative energy
wondering what other people are thinking or doing,
successful people have learned to simply ask.

Let’s say you gave your assistant an assignment.
You go on about your business assuming that he’ll get
it done in the manner and time frame that you expect.
A day later, you’re not noticing any signs of this
assumption being true, and you’re getting an
uncomfortable feeling.  Rather than allowing your
thoughts and possible fears to monopolize what
could otherwise be productive work time… go to
your assistant immediately and ask about the project
in specific terms.

Say, for example:  ”You are going to get that
assignment completed and delivered to John by this
coming Friday, right?”

If your fears were correct and there was a
miscommunication going on, you now have the ability
to clarify the terms of this project with your assistant
making absolutely sure he knows and understands all
the details he needs to in order to follow through
correctly and completely.

Does your son understand that he needs to have
the garbage down to the curb by 7 a.m. Tuesday
morning?  Saying, “Take the garbage out” may
not have been the clearest way to communicate
what you wanted done and when.  Before any
misstep or argument, clarify that your son does
indeed understand the chore terms perfectly.

Many people make up stories in their mind about
what they “think” they’ve seen.  Let’s say you’re at a
party and there’s a woman you’ve never met standing
across the room glaring at you.  Instead of assuming
that she finds your presence at this party distasteful for
some reason, make your way over to her and – you
guessed it – ask.

You may just find out that she was trying to view the
painting you were standing directly in front of, and
that the scowl you thought you saw was just her
squinting her eyes attempting to see it better because
she thought she recognized it.

Before you make up stories in your mind again, make
it a habit to get the real facts first.  Especially when
you’ve heard other people’s stories and opinions about
others, situations, or opportunities, check the facts first.
Only then will you have a firm and true foundation upon
which to build, speak, act or dismiss.

Replacing your assumptions with facts brings your better
results, improves your relationships, communication skills,
and productivity as well as the quality in which you live
your life.  When in doubt, check it out today.

Am I crazy?

Promote less and give more?

I say ABSOLUTELY but let me explain further.

Most network marketers spend their time feverously promoting their opportunity. Some do so without considering who they should promote to and what their approach should be.  Most times they end up promoting their opportunity to other network marketers. Seems like the right thing to do, right?

Maybe so, maybe not.

The question is, if that’s the right thing to do, why aren’t you getting the traffic and signups you hoped to earn from all of your hard work? 

Picture this for a second.

Thousands, maybe even millions of network marketers in a promoting frenzy never stopping long enough to consider why they are unable to cash in on all of their hard work. Never achieving any measure of success.              Seemingly out of nowhere an ad goes by that isn’t asking me to buy anything. Instead, it seems as though it’s offering to explain something to me that will solve my problem of not getting any signups, or perhaps it is answering my question about why I need an autoresponder.

Wait a minute, this person here says they can show me how to add 20-30 optins per day no matter what opportunity. Hmmm. What’s the catch? I go ahead and sign up and the person never asks me to join anything. Instead they offer me something more in addition to what I initially signed up for.

A week later they send me an email just asking if there was anything I needed help with and they invited me to a webinar and offered a rebrandable ebook I could give to my prospects and business associates.

Can’t figure it out but this person definitely gets my attention and I’ll tell my friends too because they gave before they asked for anything.

Get it?

Try giving first and watch the difference in your results.

Your turn.

#51 Law of Success
Most Laws of Success are short and sweet, but so

goes, sometimes less is MORE.  Pay attention.
The laws always work when YOU apply them.
-=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=-

Pay attention to the words you use.

Think back on your life experiences.  Remember the
positive words people said to you.  Which words and
phrases empowered you…  Gave you strength and
courage…  Uplifted you…  Made you feel good about
yourself, your accomplishments, and your place in the
world…  How did you feel about the people speaking
those positive words?

Now remember back to the negative words you heard
as well as the gossip that you heard was going on
behind the scenes.  They had quite the opposite affect,
didn’t they?  How did you feel about the people speak-
ing those negative words?

Successful people have learned to speak with attention.
They know how powerful words are, so they are spoken
with the distinct intention to build a person up – their
self-image, self-confidence, and self-esteem.  Relation-
ships and dreams are built upon words of encouragement,
praise, support, love, appreciation, potential and vision.

Think about how like attracts like, even in words…
When you speak with love and acceptance, love is
returned to you.  When you speak with gratitude
and appreciation, that thankfulness is returned to
you.  Likewise, when you speak words of rejection,
judgment, or hatred, those qualities are returned to
you.  Even when you say these kinds of words behind
a person’s back, they’ll eventually pick up your critical
feelings toward them, and reciprocate in kind.

Remember what your mother may have told you,
“If you can’t say anything nice, then say nothing at
all.”  Make sure that your words are always positive,
uplifting, and encourage feelings of happiness, calm
and peace, and your life will change positively.

Is this you?

You attend training calls once, twice, several times a week hoping to soak up as much knowledge as possible so you can eventually get your business started. OK, maybe you have actually gotten your business started, but you haven’t really stepped into your role as a leader yet.

Only you can answer that.

Here are some of my excuses:

I have a full-time job, I don’t have enough time. This excuse was working for me for a while until I discovered that one of the dynamos in our network also has a full time job yet somehow manages to run her own membership site and manages and text ad exchanges as well. She gets 24 hours a day to work with just like I do so maybe it’s not there isn’t  enough time, maybe I need to a little help with time management.

I don’t have the resources to promote my opportunity. The real truth is, and your bank statement will attest to this is that you will find money for the things you really want. Sure you may have to make some sacrifices of both your time and your money, but if that’s what it takes to get where you want to be, the sacrifice is well worth it.

What are you willing to do without to in order to get to where you want to be?  Eating out? Starbucks? Cigarettes? Cable TV?

I don’t have a commanding speaking voice like my leader does. Actually, I have a really soft speaking voice and that’s not likely going to change. What I have to remember is that rather than aspiring to be like or sound like anyone else, I have to be the best ‘me’ that I can be.

There’s so much to learn and I don’t know enough yet. Yes, there is a lot to learn in this or any industry and no matter how long you attend classes you’ll NEVER know all there is to know and no one expects that of you. There is no completion of your training in network marketing so don’t wait for a graduation that will never happen. Share what you’ve already learned. Believe it or not, there are people that are newer than you are who could really benefit from what you know. Yes, it’s great to invite people to attend the same training classes you’re attending and I definitely encourage that. However, if at some point you want to establish yourself as a leader then the time will come when you you have to step up to the microphone. School’s out! Time to step up!

Why not get started today?

Today’s economy is driving thousands, maybe even millions of people to the internet to find a way to make money online. One of the biggest mistakes I see internet marketers doing is focusing all of their efforts on sales instead of connecting with their audience.

Would it surprise if I told you that your biggest priority is NOT selling?

I must confess, I didn’t know that until recently.

I thought that all you needed to be successful was to be equipped with an affiliate id and the desire to make money.

That couldn’t be further from the truth.

Your success is not determined by the number of traffic exchanges,  safelists or other advertising resources you have in your arsenal.

Your success will come when you connect with people and find out what your audience’s needs are and meeting them.

Instead of going to the marketing community to see what you can get, go to the internet marketing community with the intent to give.

Gordon Gekko once said, “the most valuable commodity is information.”

What information or knowledge can you offer the marketing community?

I’m not talking about your product, I’m talking about YOU.

How can you assist?

What are the people on your list  (you ARE building a list, right?) struggling with?

Let me ask you a few more questions, if I may?

Do you know who your target market is?

Do you know how to reach them, do you know where they hang out?

How would you find out what their needs are?

Do you know why it is important to build a mailing list?

Do you understand why you would need a web based conference room?

Do you explain to people why they need to take action before you ask them to take action?

If you want people to join you in any opportunity, COMMUNICATION is key, not your product.

Change your course today by meeting needs and providing value.

Share an ebook, invite them to a webinar where you can answer questions and provide guidance or offer a personal consultation.

Get busy in the social networks doing the same thing, offering help, offering YOU.

Know what will happen?

They’re going to start talking about you and telling their friends about you because you are interested rather than interesting and you are putting their needs in front of your own. Once that relationship is established, they will see you as an authority, a giver and a person they can trust.

When you step up and start meeting needs and you lead with value instead of your affiliate link, your potential for success will increase exponentially.

At least that’s when things turned around for me.

When you do network marketing the right way, people
pay you to prospect them.

#50 Law of Success
Most Laws of Success are short and sweet, but so
very important to YOUR success!  As the saying

The laws always work when YOU apply them.
-=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=- -=*=-

Tell the truth.

Do you want your stress-related aches and pains to
disappear?  Would you like to shed some weight?
Would you like your depression to abate?  Those
results and more actually happen to people who stop
harboring secrets and tell the truth.

It takes a tremendous amount of energy to withhold
the truth.  The old saying “The truth shall set you free”
is absolutely on target. Energy that has been previously
suppressed is freed up and a feeling of aliveness can
be felt once again.  People who decide to finally start
telling the truth find their natural selves, joy and
spontaneity are returned to them.

Look at every area of your life.  Are there hidden
resentments or angers that have built up.  Take a look
at them and ask what unmet wants or needs they are
expressing.  What is it that you are or were wanting
that you didn’t get?  Who was involved?

The next step may be the hardest and most uncom-
fortable, but it’s absolutely essential for your peace of
mind, health of body and authentic relationships…
Have that difficult conversation.  Ask the difficult
questions.

These kinds of conversations or questions may cause
someone hurt feelings or create an angry reaction.
Rather than avoiding them, have courage, and stand
firm with compassion.  This is one of the most
important success habits you’ll ever develop.  And
it’s the right thing to do.

When you or the person(s) you’re dealing with know
where each stands truthfully, the path to a solution
that is win-win for both parties is clear.  Problems
cannot be solved until they are acknowledged.  Put
your cards on the table where everyone can see
them.

Most soap operas, and some reality shows, prime time
dramas, and theatrical movies create emotional energy
for their viewers by using untruths that put their
characters at odds with each other.  Think about the
ones you’ve seen recently.  Have you ever been witness
to a lie that didn’t backfire on the one telling it?

The same is true in real life.  Somehow, some way,
some time, you will reap the sowing of an untruth (or
withholding of a truth).  Free yourself and others
from this energy draining bondage now – speak your
truth everyday.
