Hi Online-Marketing, If I have yet to inspire you with the power and profitability of blogging, I am hoping that will all change today when I have Karon Thackston as my guest for… “How to Get a Steady Flow of Clients & Passive Income From Your Blog” connieLoves.me/BlogPassiveIncome We meet live at 3 pm EST today and you’re invited. Karon is a master copywriter and SEO expert and we first met almost eight years ago when we were both master instructors at an event in Atlanta. I’ve continued to learn from her over the years and you will as well. And there is no fancy, expensive course for sale at the end, as I already have that in my authority blogging training program. Instead, Karon will be offering an affordable guide to help you make your blog a passive income machine. Please join us at 3 pm EST today by registering at: connieLoves.me/BlogPassiveIncome = = = = = Last Chance for Profiting From Podcasts connieLoves.me/ProfitFromPodcasts This new webinar training is from Steve Olsher and you may choose any of the three times to attend this one live. If you are considering upping your game for 2019 this could be the right direction for you. I’m working from my home office today if you have a question I may answer for you, and I hope to “see” you at 3 pm EST for the webinar with Karon Thackston.

Hi Online-Marketing, Bundles and giveaways can seem daunting, especially when you get ready to download what has been included. If that is how you feel about the “Great Big Life and Biz Bundle” I want to help you reframe your thinking. First, take a look at what is included for only $27 at: connieLoves.me/GreatBigLifeBizBundle There are more than 50 packages from new and established entrepreneurs included here, making it about fifty-one cents ($o.51) for each one. That’s a bargain on any planet, let alone on Earth! And even if you purchased the BC Stack during the summer, where I included a product along with 63 others, or the Laptop Lifestyle bundle, where there were more than 40 products/courses/trainings included, everything here is different, even if it’s from the same person. Yesterday I gave you some recommendations for my faves, and here are some more: Krishna Woods – Home/Business Balance Client Onboarding Planner Carol Little – Impactful Introductions to set you apart Amy Whitmer – Develop Your Business’s Brand So That It Packs a Powerful Punch Patricia Stallworth – Personal Money Power Leslie Bouldin – How to Get Publicity with Press Releases I have worked personally with more than half of those who are represented in this bundle, in one of my mentoring programs. And this is your opportunity to get to know them through their signature products, courses, and topics. connieLoves.me/GreatBigLifeBizBundle [Ends in 36 Hours – Only $27 for Everything] And now about my Special Bonus: Come in through me and you will be included in an eBook we will write and publish together on the topic of home businesses and entrepreneurship. No matter where you are in this process, your short chapter will be valuable to readers all over the world. We will put this together during November and December and I will publish it right at the first of the year. If you are already an author this will boost your name, and if this is a first time book for you this will begin a process of credibility and visibility that is priceless. I have added five spots for this bonus, so there will be no more than thirty of us represented in the book. And I will teach you how I take each book I write to best seller status in two or three categories, several times each year! Enjoy your Tuesday and hit “reply” with … {…continue reading…}

Hi Online-Marketing, Learning from the smartest people online has become my M.O. – my modus operandi – since coming online twelve years ago. When I find one of these people, and it is extremely rare, I spend as much time as possible with them through their coaching/mentoring, their products and courses, as well as in person. One of them is Cindy Bidar. I have know her personally since about 2012 and pride myself in gobbling up every bit of her training. She’s also a wonderful, down to earth, and all around nice person, which can be rare for people with her level of intelligence and marketing savvy. When given a choice, I always choose kind people to learn from. So, more about the treyfer – a twofer plus one – I’ve been able to score for you. Take a look at: connieLoves.me/6FigureSystems [Use Code ROLLBACK to save $7 Right Now] “6 Figure Systems” is Cindy’s monthly program and she is giving of herself in this one like few people do these days.

Hi Online-Marketing, If it’s Tuesday it must be time for entrepreneurship, passive income, and authorship! For a few days I have been attempting to explain why you need both of the programs I’m teaching through the end of 2018 instead of just one of them. These are: 1) The “Authors! Quick Book-to-Business Profits Method” program I’m co-teaching with Ellen Finkelstein AND 2) “Really Simple Authority Blogging” I debuted in the spring and will now go into Season Two live beginning next week (Tuesday, October 9th) The questions I’ve been getting include: * Are these both the same, more or less? * If I’m writing a book, why do I care about a blog? * I don’t want to blog because I’m busy writing my book. Shouldn’t I wait until after the first of the year? * I’m not an expert so I don’t need a book. I should just work on creating an authority blog for now, right? These are all valid questions and concerns. And you most certainly do not want or need to do extra writing that may not make a difference. These are my thoughts… These programs couldn’t be more different from one another, yet they are two sides of the same coin in that both lead to the results we all want yet few of us achieve and enjoy. The credibility from my books brings: * ongoing speaking engagements * a growing list of responsive prospects * a new audience of readers for my blogs * online courses based on my books’ concepts The authority from my blogs brings: * massive, passive income every single day * additional book sales from around the world * global readership and additional recognition * a body of work with which to create a variety of products, courses, email messages, and more books Like peanut butter and chocolate, your book and your blog will work in combination to propel you to a level few will ever reach, and in the shortest period of time. Here are details about each program: “Authors! Quick Book-to-Business Profits Method” onlineWritingProfits.com [Code QUICKPROFITS Saves You $50] Ellen and I teach a new session on Friday, October 26th. AND “Really Simple Authority Blogging” reallySimpleAuthorityBlogging.com I begin Season Two live on Tuesday, October the 9th. Yes, I know they may feel expensive to you or be out of your price range right now. I understand that because … {…continue reading…}

Hi Online-Marketing, I thought today would be an excellent day to share a few things with you that will help you to market yourself, your books, and your products much better. #1 Follow Your Favorite Authors Did you know that if you follow authors on Amazon you are the first to know about our new releases and when we put a book on sale or offer it at no cost? Please follow me to see what I mean: connieRagenGreenBooks.com Click where it says “Follow” and it will change to “Following” #2 I spent less than thirty minutes yesterday moving more than twenty books from Create Space (which will be gone in a couple of weeks) over to my Kindle Direct Publishing account. It was painless, there was no way to mess it up, and now my Kindle and paperback versions of the same book will be connected! Are you on Kindle? I can help you with that. 😉 #3 When you recommend something through your affiliate link, it depends upon the platform as to whether or not you will earn income when someone buys from them in the future. Here are three that pay you forever: affiliateLinksandTools.com (my affiliate site) connieLoves.me/BecomeAnAffiliate (Cindy Bidar) connieLoves.me/CreatingHabits (Susanne & Tracy from Piggy Makes Bank – grab your free PLR then scroll to the bottom and click on “affiliates”) #4 The reason I use a lowercase letter at the beginning of all my links is because some email providers block links from being clickable if you do not. #5 Tell others as much about yourself as possible so they will remember you through your story. Even if you have only been a part of my community for a short while you most likely know that I am former classroom teacher, live in two cities (Santa Barbara and Santa Clarita in California), and love volunteering with a variety of groups. Share your story and become more alive to your prospects and clients. #6 Combine some of your blog posts and other writing into a report you can share with your community. Here is one I put together on time management and productivity: connieLoves.me/FocusTime #7 Offer something at no cost to introduce your audience to someone you know and respect. Here are my two examples: connieLoves.me/WeekendSpecial connieLoves.me/10XFree #8 When you are offered content at no cost, turn it into a blog post and recommend the site … {…continue reading…}

Hi Online-Marketing, Happy October 1st and Beginning of 4th Quarter to You! This evening I’m winding down my Santa Barbara Retreat. Thank you for the well wishes for two of my people who were injured while we volunteered with a group building homes for returning veterans. They’re both better now and anxious to make the most of today. My CFO is joining us this afternoon to look at and discuss all of our 3rd quarter numbers. My business is a simple one that serves as an excellent example to other entrepreneurs. Yesterday I shared that I’ve done some soul searching over the past week in regards to the two courses I am teaching through the end of 2018. You know Ellen Finkelstein and I are teaching a Master Class on how to write your book and turn it into an ongoing income stream, as each of us has done multiple times and continues to do. You may see that Master Class here: “Authors! Quick Book-to-Business Profits Method” onlineWritingProfits.com [Code QUICKPROFITS Saves You $50] Our next session is on Friday, October 26th and we are so excited to share this information with you. But herein lies my dilemma… I created a course called “Really Simple Authority Blogging” at the beginning of this year and taught it live during the spring. It’s the most detailed training I have even done on my own and was very well received by my students. You may read more about it here: reallySimpleAuthorityBlogging.com I begin Season Two live on Tuesday, October the 9th. I want you to say AND instead of OR and be a part of both of these programs for the next two years. Yes, I know they may feel expensive to you or be out of your price range right now. I understand that because I was there when I began online. But I also know the value of these to get you closer to where you want to be by the end of 2018 – just 90 days from now. This is what I can do… 1) If you’re already enrolled in the Master Class with Ellen and I and want to add Authority Blogging, email me so we can figure out how to make it work for you. 2) If you’re already enrolled in Really Simple Authority Blogging and wish to add our Master Class, write to me and we will … {…continue reading…}

Hi Online-Marketing, Yesterday was both an exhilarating and a challenging day. I’m hosting my Retreat this weekend and working with three dedicated and fun loving entrepreneurs. When I suggested we all volunteer with a group that builds homes for returning veterans they were anxious to join in. My Rotary Club was hosting a pancake breakfast at the construction site so there was something for everyone to do to help out. Three hours later two of my three clients had been injured. One broke his wrist while stirring cement in a mixer and the other threw his back out and couldn’t stand up. Fellow Rotarians helped me to load everyone into my SUV and one even accompanied us to the local emergency room. Everyone is better this morning and we’re back at work. Today’s discussion is around the great responsibility of saying AND instead of OR in our personal life and in our businesses. Yesterday we all chose to help with a worthwhile cause, even though none of us has experience with building homes. Wanting to be a part of something greater than ourselves was our motivation. I did give them a choice to work o business all day and do something fun last night but the vote was unanimous to do what we did. The other choice was to attend a showing of “A Star is Born” down in Hollywood, but that was so much less appealing to all of us than working on a hands-on project. What is the point in my sharing this story? I want you to say AND for the right reasons for you, and I want to make it as easy as possible for you to do so. I’ve done some soul searching over the past week. You know Ellen Finkelstein and I are teaching a Master Class on how to write your book and turn it into an ongoing income stream, as each of us has done multiple times and continues to do. You may see that Master Class here: “Authors!

Hi Online-Marketing, This weekend I’m hosting one of my Retreats here in Santa Barbara. I do this four or five times a year to work more closely with my clients. This time we are a group of four. Steve and Jeff have an online business helping new virtual assistants get ready to take on clients and serve them well, and Cameron is a photographer who wants to build up his presence and income on the internet. We do have lots of fun during my Retreats, while also accomplishing goals that will translate to income. These three came prepared and ready to work and play. My next event in Los Angeles will be during January and I’ll share more details with you on this next week.

Hi Online-Marketing, This morning I shared how I was overwhelmed by the plethora of products, courses, and tools offered by the people who had been online for years before me during my first year online. Without a mentor or experience under my belt it was hit and miss, and many times I spent money on products that had little or no value to me when I took a closer look. Then I found my hidden gem… I had spent about six thousand dollars by 2007 and I was at a crossroads; if I didn’t find a way to make my new online business earn enough income to cover my monthly expenses I would have to file bankruptcy. Yes, my situation was dire but my faith was strong. So I purchased one more course, crossed my fingers, and dug in to learn and implement as much as possible. It was a $97 course on blogging. I do not recall the name of that course but I will never forget the person teaching it. Her name is Denise Wakeman and I am still learning from her to this day. Even my mother knew her name because I told her that we would be alright once I put everything I was learning from Denise into action. The rest is history and I will be forever grateful. I believe with all of my heart that your hidden gem is within the people and products you will receive as part of the Laptop Lifestyle Business Bundle. connieLoves.me/LaptopLifestyleBundle [Ends at midnight ET – $27 for All 42 Packages] Email me with your questions and comments and I’ll answer you personally. Your future is within this bundle! In Deep Gratitude and to Your Massive Success, Connie Ragen Green P.S. Purchase through my link before this closes forever and I will do two things for you: 1) Give you PLR rights to my 10K word Productivity Challenge to do with as you see fit, even sell it or turn it into an online course.

Hi Online-Marketing, During my first year online I was overwhelmed by the plethora of products, courses, and tools offered by the people who had been online for years before me. Without a mentor or experience under my belt it was hit and miss, and many times I spent money on something that had little or no value to me when I took a closer look. I vowed to be a trusted advisor for others once I had achieved some level of success, and that is what I’ve done for over a decade now. I pride myself on being able to spot the diamonds in the rough and to work diligently to share them with my community. That’s you! connieLoves.me/LaptopLifestyleBundle [Ends at midnight ET – $27 for All 42 Packages] Yesterday I highlighted one of the people included in the Bundle. Today I’d like to highlight the woman who came up with this idea and made it happen – Angela Wills. Angela is a powerhouse of a human being, smart and kind and always willing to help others become successful as entrepreneurs. I have the utmost respect for her and love that she is offering what I consider to be her best training and the topic she is famous for, email marketing. It’s a $197 value and included here in the Laptop Lifestyle Business Bundle. It’s listed at the top of the page and called: “Natural Email Marketer Live” – included in this bundle! Of the 42 products,courses, and training you’ll receive, about a third of them are from people who are in some of my mentoring and other programs. That’s another reason I know you will be well taken care of and most certainly get many times more value than the investment of $27. connieLoves.me/LaptopLifestyleBundle [Ends at midnight ET – $27 for All 42 Packages] Email me with your questions and comments and I’ll answer you personally. In Deep Gratitude and to Your Massive Success, Connie Ragen Green P.S. Why are you still here? Please don’t get shut out when this closes at midnight ET. Just one of the people or products included here could be the hidden gem that changes everything for you as an entrepreneur. connieLoves.me/LaptopLifestyleBundle P.P.S. Purchase through my link before this closes forever and I will do two things for you: 1) Give you PLR rights to my 10K (more…)
