Okay, this might sound crazy, but I’ve spent the last 6 months kind of “underground” developing a revolutionary new membership… Not only does this membership literally hand over:

- 2 new niches every month

- all of the keywords you’ll need in each niche

- 1 landing page for each niche to collect email addresses

- 5 emails for each niche to sell affiliate products

- 3 pre-selected high converting affiliate products for each niche

- an entire traffic driving system, step by step, laid out in a checklist.

- a members’ only forum to network with other Instant Niche Income Members

- untold numbers of surprise bonuses to be sent out over the next few years to members…

But it also gives you a full email coaching program with dedicated access to me during business hours to ask questions, get direction, get feedback, and get support!

And the best part is, you can get it all for under $50/month (less than half the cost of an average coaching program, WITHOUT any of the PLR, forums, traffic systems, or any other materials!)

You are looking for a web designer for your company website right now, so you came here to find information on the best web designers available. Good news – that means you’re smart. You only want the best of the best for your business.

But I have some bad news for you. A web designer is probably the last person you want to trust with your online presence.

This article is about the difference between a web designer and a marketing integration specialist, and how you should decide which one to hire.

A web designer will:
- Charge up to tens of thousands of dollars to design you a nice logo, and create a pretty looking website.
- They will integrate flash into your website, to make it look even fancier (although it will load a lot slower, and the search engines HATE flash…)
- They will design your site to look nice, but not bother with any search engine optimization (which is how you would get traffic to your site.)
- Once the site is complete, they will ask you to write your own information for the home page, about page, contact page, and other elements, and will then “copy and paste” your content onto your new website.
- They will deliver the website, and tell you that it is now up to you to get visitors to it and figure out how to get the site making money all on your own.

Whereas a Marketing Integration Specialist will:
- Charge a more reasonable fee for the actual design of the site, and outsource your logo design to their trusted partners.
- Only integrate flash into your website in the form of online commercials and customer testimonials delivered on video.
- Create your site using a platform that is search-engine friendly, and completely optimize your site to get huge traffic from Google, Yahoo, and MSN.
- Write all of the information and content for you using sales principles, to get you the maximum response possible for your website.
- Integrate testing and tracking options into your website, so you can see what is getting people to call you and what isn’t working.
- Use other methods to drive massive traffic to your brand new website, so that your website becomes a profitable asset.
- Integrate lead generation auto-response technology right into the site, so your potential customers are followed up with automatically via email, and their contact details are sent directly to you.
- Provide ongoing tweaking of your website using the testing and tracking system to get you the best results.
- Consult with you on your goals, and give you the details on the right solution – not just the most expensive one.
- Integrate your website with your offline marketing methods to gain more exposure.
- Help you implement customer retention programs in your business, to keep those new customers buying from you.
- Conduct a marketing audit, and help you cut out underperforming advertisements.
- and a whole lot more…

Plus, a Marketing Integration Specialist will provide you with a FREE consultation and a FREE proposal for your business, telling you the exact steps they will take with no obligation to purchase their services.

As you can see, a web designer is probably the last person you should trust with your online presence. If you’d like to speak to a marketing integration specialist, visit www.thecanadiancopywriter.com or call 604-392-7076 for a no hassle, no obligation FREE consultation!

Amen, brother Fortin! It is insane how many emails are just copycatting everyone else these days… I can literally watch my inbox, and read one email. See what it is promoting. Within 24 hours, I can easily delete 40 emails – because from the subject lines, I can tell that they are promoting the same thing.

What ever happened to standing out with your subject lines? Giving before receiving? Law of reciprocity? Dare I say, I’ve never written an autoresponder email without a shred of content in it like these people do every day. I’d be more than willing to help them – and I’d make a darn big difference to their bottom line, too. Just as you would, Michel.

Unfortunately, you can’t convince a drowning man to calm down and float – he’s too busy flailing about, trying not to breathe. Same with a lot of these marketers. We can’t convince them to calm down and respect their lists, because they’re too busy flailing around and trying not to go broke.

Like I said in a recent salesletter I wrote… Money doesn’t go away, it just moves away from the people who have mismanaged their resources, and into the hands of the people who deliver the most value. Obviously, if these marketers are dying off (which I think they soon will, if they don’t make a change), then their money will go into the hands of those who truly provide value.

You can’t ride on your name forever – even Bill Gates still has to work for credibility.

So you’ve thought about sending out a press release to announce new services, new products, new prices, or even how current news is affecting your business or your customers.

You go online, and find a multitude of companies who will blast your press release out across the internet to various online news sites either for free, or for a fee.

But this is content that relates to your local business – is there really a need to send your press release to Google News and The New York Times?

Well, the short answer is yes and no.

Yes, you should send your press release out to services like Google News, especially if you have backlinks to your main site in the content. But no, you don’t really need to send out your press release to national papers if your target customers are purely local. There is simply no point.

Here is the best, and most effective way of sending out a press release that will actually make a difference in your business…

Step One – Write out the press release with a local flair. Include the name of the city you are from, or a local landmark, or make it relevant somehow to local people.

Step Two – Use a free online press release distribution service like PRLog.org to send your release to services like Google News, online blogs, etc. This is great for SEO purposes, but it likely won’t get you any clients at all. For that, you’ll need to…

Step Three – Find the contact information for the editor for your local newspapers. Small town newspapers may only have one editor, while bigger newspapers will likely have an editor specifically for the section you are targeting. Find their name, email address, or mailing address (perhaps even fax number.) Send them an email asking if they accept press releases via email, or better yet, give them a call. Tell them a bit about your story, and ask if they would accept a copy of the release via email. If they say yes, email it off – if they prefer another method, do that instead.

This pretty much guarantees that your press release is getting into the right hands to get coverage that will actually help you, and saves you a substantial amount of money over online services.

Of course, if writing press releases and talking to all of the various newspaper editors isn’t something you want to do, you can always hire a Marketing Integration Specialist. They can help you to integrate the online and offline functionality of an effective press release in a way that will actually get you more business – instead of online services that will be spamming your press release to newspapers that won’t publish your content anyway, because it has no local relevance to them.
