Review of the 7 Figure Secrets - Just Released

The 7 Figure Secrets report has finally been released. And here's my take on it.

There's a mad rush to get access to the information, especially as it's all to do with Mike Filsaime. He only has to say the word and success is instant at this stage. With that said I'd like to share some things I think you should know before you follow the hype and are sucked in.

The report is called "The 7 Figure Secrets" and it's a physical product that'll be shipped to your front door. And the cost?

$7.99, or $11.99 to other countries. And that's just the shipping. The 7 Figure Secrets itself is free. Mike says he was going to sell that report for $297, but decided to share it for free. Why?

You see if you offer enough value to a customer before he puts his/her hand in their pocket, they'll come back again and again. Even more so if what you're offered helps you make money or improves your business in some way.

Will this report help you?

Yes and no.

Lets look at the 'No' first:

First of all the book itself is 84 pages long. Now that's not huge by any stretch of the imagination. But there are a lot of folks out there who will get this information and will just put the book on the shelf to gather dust. And for those who do read the information, well lets just say this word: Action.

Lack of action is one of the biggest killers of any business. I mean, I've been there where I bought lots of information products. But I didn't take action. So I failed miserably for years. What has changed? Here's that word again: Action. I took action.

In these cases you're better off avoiding more information and just begin to focus on what you already know. As a matter of fact, look through all your information products. Then just choose one or two to focus on. Put the rest back on the shelf. And take action on the one or two you've chosen. Okay?

Oh, and one more thing -

If you're an experienced marketer, then this information you most likely already know. However, it is a great way to read and revise what you're doing and you may find that you gain more ideas as a result.

Let's look at the 'Yes' now:

Because of the ideal length of this report, it easily digestible and useful. But just like above, stick with this book and leave all others alone until you're satisfied you have used it to help your business. And that word again:

Action.

When you get your ideas, then just do it - one at a time.

If you're an inexperienced marketer, then this will be an ideal read for you. It's all laid out in a methodical way. Just read, understand and implement in your own business as much as possible.

The thing that gets me about the 7 Figure Secrets offer is one of the bonuses. It's the 18 Full Color Process Map Blueprints. This is, to me, the most valuable part of this package. You're getting 18 full color blueprints for different aspects of your business. Blueprints are an asset to your business.

Although you may not follow these blueprints exactly, you may use them to adapt to your own business and create your own business plans and blueprints. What this bonus is doing for you is to guide you in your thinking and set you up so that you're not doing all the work. In other words, you not working for your business. Instead, your business is working for you.

There are two other bonuses that come with the 7 Figure Secrets report:

* The Butterfly Marketing Manuscript - Value: $97
* Free Issue - MarketingDotCom Magazine - Value: $29.95

People pay to read the Butterfly Marketing Manuscript. 120 pages long. It goes through 'Success' case studies that'll help you identify with people that have gone from nothing to success. And it will help you with marketing your business on the internet.

MarketingDotCom Magazine will issue to you free for one issue only. It contains articles are written by Mike FIlsaime and his crew. It goes into tips and tricks relative to marketing your business online.

But, is there a catch?

Yes there is a catch. And this is the catch (or catches) -

First of all, when you sign up, you're getting a free issue of MarketingDotCom Magazine. However, you're going to get more issues. Every month as a matter of fact. Only thing is, you'll pay for this each month. Once you give your credit card details for the shipping of the 7 Figure Secrets report, your credit card will then be billed monthly for further issues of this magazine.

Is this a bad thing?

In my opinion - no.

Because Mike clearly indicated that you will be billed. He highlights a support telephone number to cancel your subscription, before you card is even charged. I thought it important to point this out to you as a lot of people don't read through the copy properly and end up not knowing why their credit card bill is so high.

Another thing is that when you sign up, you're going to get some one time offers. You don't have to avail of them. However, it's up to you. You might decide that what is offered is something you want for your business.

So now you know. You're going in with your eyes wide open and know what to expect.

With that said, do I recommend getting the 7 Figure Secrets Report?

Absolutely Yes.

Mike knows that by offering you very high value for nothing (except the shipping costs), and if you succeed using that information, you will most likely become a customer of his. If not now, maybe further down the road.

Whether you choose to get the 7 Figure Secrets report, or not, I wish you luck in all your business endeavors now and in the future. At least now you know what to expect from the 7 Figure Secrets report.

Want To Get Rich? Read On To Learn How You Can Too

Do you want to be your Own Boss? Get Rich? Free up your time? Get away from a #*@ boss or coworkers? Spend more time with your kids/ family or friendly and have the money to get the most out of it? Get out of debt. Buy nicer stuff, travel, cars, give to charity, help you friends or family, go out to really nice places and indulge in the finer stuff in life......... Ya, I thought so:) Most of us do but don't know how, right? Yes? I thought so. It's your time is now!

It's very simple and doable when you know what to do. But you must realize that you are running a business, working for your self is still work no mater if you do if full time or part time. So many people think that when they sign up for a home business/ opportunity that their signing up to sit at home or go and play and get some kind of awesome charity and a bunch of money is going to just appear with out them doing any thing! And some scammers will even tell you that. Scammers also like to throe around the word FREE. This is a bad, bad joke! Yes, there is often a free way to do many of them but these take much more work and almost never really make you any money. The truth is that it dose take work and some money to make a big business and lots of money. Any one that has made them selves rich had a passion for it. All those luxuries they enjoy, they earned, yes earned. Trust me, it's totally worth all the work. Remember, you do get to have and enjoy all that you earn because your doing all this work for YOU! Not your boss or some company. You get to have and spend all the profit from all the work you do. It's also important to know that the hardest part is getting your business started, getting your income established. This is true for any business. As it grows bigger and bigger the less work you need to do and the more time you will have to enjoy the profits from all your efforts (MLMs are the best because your building residual income through your down line. They are also the most work).

OK here it is. How to pick a home or internet business. How to advertise/ get customers and down line with out bugging your friends or family (Although you will enjoy proudly showing off your success!) Exactly what you need to know to get rich. Remember the more work you put in to it the more money you can get out of it.

1. First there needs to be a product. I know that sounds really simple but it's important. No gifting scams, no stuffing envelopes or chain letters or any of those scams. You need to have a product, a product that is of value, that solves a problem or situation that people have. Something that is in demand and has an established market, a market that people know about, relate to and need. Your product needs to already be in demand if you want to make money with it right away.

2. You need to get a good profit. Yes, we want to make money. I proffer about $20 + (each sale) profit or about 20% +. You may find a great company that has great products but only gives you around 5, 8, 10% profits, yikes that's nothing! Your in this to make money not do charity work for them! Make sure that it's a good company that you like and really supports you in making big money.

A word about affiliate. These can be very, very good. Make sure that you still use the what I said above and be careful because not all affiliate are trustable! I mean that some will not pay you. I have racked up a lot of profit before and then had the website not pay me!

3. You need to get good targeted traffic to your web site or affiliate site. Search engine are a good way but you will also need to put articles in E Zines and get some back links. These will increase your popularity and give you better search engine placement. I use Google AdWords and I Snare (E-zine) the most. It takes time and effort to get really good traffic to your site. You can perfect your technique with E-books and studying what works best for your site.

4. You need to get a strong down line. Relax, I will show you the best and fastest way to do this. I do not worry about customers because there are always people that you will sign up that will not do what you tell then to do and instead just perches products from you. So how do you get a big down line? Your best tool is high quality leads. High quality leads are acquired by a good lead generating company. Now there are many, many bad lead generating company's out there and you could wast a lot of money, time and effort sorting though them and never find a good one but I have done it for you. Yes, I have found a high quality lead company and I use them very successfully with my Eniva business! Paramount MLM Leads will be the life line of your business! Now these are very high quality leads. There are no incentive offered so that the only reason anyone would put there information in is to ask to get a phone call to find out about starting their very own home business. That's where you come in. That person is waiting for your call! You call them and tell them about your opportunely and see if they want to join your team. This is the fastest, easiest way to build your business. To get the best results call your leads as soon as you can while their interest is at the highest. But no mater what, the most important thing you need to do is CALL THEM! If you mess up, so what. At least you did it and you will get better in time. The most important thing to do is to JUST DO IT!!!

How Your Competition Can Help Your Business

Admit it, your business has competition. No matter how successful the business, there still remains other businesses in the same field trying to outdo one another, and your business is no exception. However, don't be discouraged by competition but instead look to it as an asset to your business. It may seem strange, but true that your competition can help your business grow.

Your competitors are your business, but only slightly different this makes them perfect for experimentation. That doesn't mean go to your competition's company and start testing chemicals on them, but instead look to your competition to see how they rebound from bad breaks and what they do to find success. Using your competition in this way will allow you to take all the same chances they take but without any of the consequences (good or bad).

In order to learn from your competitors, you must start keeping tabs on what they are doing. This can be done by checking out their websites or looking in local papers. Also, search for press releases on your competition to see their different innovations and the reactions they received. It may be helpful to ask around in your community to see what people like and dislike about your competition. When the opportunity comes up, mingle with your competition at professional activities such as dinners and conferences. Finally, if any of your competitors (and let's face it, there is probably more than one) have a mailing list, sign up to get information about how they are targeting customers and what they see as their best assets.

Before you begin looking at your competitors, you should find out who they are. Simply look for the big players in your industry, even though who aren't in your area. If you own an internet search engine, Google and Yahoo are your competitors even if they seem to be out of your league. Keeping track of their progress will help you to realize what your business can do to grow.

When looking at competitors, try to find patterns in their business and see if these patterns work. If you cannot find a clear business pattern, perhaps the patter here is to change frequently (i.e. switch suppliers, use new marketing strategies, etc). See if this tactics works as well. Also, look at the way your competition organizes their business. Target specific departments and see if the structure being used works for your competition. Use the information you gain to tweak your own business to be more successful.

One of the most important parts of your competition to watch is advertising. Find out what demographics your competitors target and what methods they use to get across their message. See if they are successful in their attempts. Figure out their angle and use this to your advantage. If they are doing something that works, don't copy it exactly but use the essence of the idea to add to your own advertising.

Find out what it is that makes you different from your competition and vice versa. These differences are important whether your competition is more or less successful than you. By looking at these differences you can learn what not to do or what to do if your business is more or less successful than your competition. If there has been a recent change in your competition to cause them more or less success, look specifically at what caused the change and learn from their actions.

Make sure you watch your competition constantly. Assessing competitors should not be a monthly or yearly task but should be happening daily. You may want to even track the progress of your competition. This will help you to see when your competition took up or down turns and look closely at their causes.

Watching your competition will help you now and in the future. By watching competition you will know what chances to take and which to leave by noting what worked for them. Knowing this will save you losses in the future and keep you on your toes and one step ahead of your competition.
