			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An online lead generation offer is a free report that you use to attract the right kind of prospects onto your email list.</p>
<p>When done right, a free giveaway report like this can be an long-term, valuable asset to your business.<br />
Unfortunately, many people get stuck when sit down with a blank sheet of paper to write their online lead generation offer.</p>
<p>This usually a problem that is easily solved with a little planning before you actually sit down to write, so here are five tips to help you plan.</p>
<ul>
<li>Make sure you know who your Ideal Prospect is</li>
</ul>
<p>It's very important that your giveaway report appeals to the right kind of people to your email list, so it is critical that you have a clear picture of who you want to attract. If you don't know who your Ideal Prospect is, you won't be able to understand the unanswered questions that are on their mind.</p>
<ul>
<li>Create a list of 20-30 questions</li>
</ul>
<p>If you want to create an in-demand report, make sure that it answers the burning questions that your ideal prospect has. Take some time to visit competitive websites, forums, and 'answer' sites like Answers.com where your ideal prospect is likely to hang out Your goal is to create a list of 20-30 questions that your ideal prospect doesn't have the answer to.</p>
<ul>
<li>Select 10 from the list</li>
</ul>
<p>Now that you have your list of 20-30 questions, pick ten that you feel would fit well into a cohesive, interesting, <em>online lead generation offer</em>. Put your list of 10 questions into a text file, word document or mind mapping software, then organize them into a logical order.</p>
<ul>
<li>Convert them to statements</li>
</ul>
<p>You will want to convert your list of questions into a list of authorative statements. Questions put you into a 'defensive' and 'passive' posture with your reader where statements help you position yourself as a trusted authority and expert. One way to approach this step is to create an answer for each question that is a single statement that works as a headline and can be expanded on in short paragraphs.</p>
<ul>
<li>Outline 3-5 detail points for each statement</li>
</ul>
<p>For each of your 10 statements, create 3-5 points that will become paragraphs that provide detail and explanation. You don't have to write complete sentances here, these are basically just bullet points to give you a roadmap to follow when you start writing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are starting a new blog, or already have one, there are some very important plugins that I feel are crucial to helping it being successful.<br />
WordPress is my personal choice, simple, offers a variety of themes and is very easy to use.</p>
<p>The Number One plugin is the All In One SEO Pack, which gives every post that you write an optimized Title for search engines, a brief summary, and targeted keywords for search engines to spider immediately upon publishing, helping you attain higher ranking. Simple, out of the box installation.</p>
<p>Number Two is the cbnet Ping Optimizer, which saves your blog from getting tagged as a ping spammer. Anytime you update your post, WordPress is automatically set up to ping the search engines. Do it too much, they can mark you as a spammer. Install this plug in and don't worry about it.</p>
<p>Number Three is the CSS Compress, designed to compress your files within your site so that it loads much faster, something search engines look at when spidering your website. Even Alexia shows the Page Load speed on their toolbar, so it's a very important factor. </p>
<p>Number Four is the Google Analytics Plugin, which allows you to easily view the amount of traffic, where it is coming from, most popular content, keywords and a host of other vital information. Simple to install and all you need is to insert the code that Google will provide you and you're good to go.</p>
<p>Finally, Number Five is the Dagon Design Sitemap Generator Plus which generates a fully customizable sitemap on the main page and helps the search engines spider all of your content, giving you higher ranking, as well as providing your visitors an easily navigable map to find all of your content.</p>
<p>In conclusion, these five plugins are all about optimizing your blog to be fast, efficient, informative and search engine friendly. </p>
<p>Suffice it to say, any of these Top Five plugins will help you achieve a more efficient machine, eliminate a few headaches and make your blog a better than average site than your competition.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(PLR) Private Label Rights articles are really hot at the moment. The only issue is that many have tried them and been very disappointed. I can't say I blame them. I've been disappointed, too.</p>
<p>Frequently, the PLR services you might have tried are lacking in a few areas. So, what makes a good PLR service and how are you able to ensure that you don't waste you cash on a bad one?</p>
<p>Here are 5 questions to ask yourself before investing any money into a PLR package or membership.</p>
<p>1. What topics are you going to get?</p>
<p>I mean, really, if you're promised 100 articles each and every month, but you wind up getting a bunch on Dog Care and Dating, when all your web sites are about travel… You just wasted your cash.</p>
<p>2. What quality are you getting?</p>
<p>Say you're lucky enough to get a number of articles on your topic. Take a moment to look over them. Are they nothing but fluff? I've bought PLR articles that had no original ideas, or worse, were written so poorly that there is no way that I would put them on my web site. Ensure your PLR package incorporates quality articles. Otherwise, you have just wasted some hard earned cash.</p>
<p>3. How many others are receiving the same PLR articles?</p>
<p>If 1000 others signed up to have the same articles, are you actually receiving value for your money? Perhaps if you do not mind rewriting the articles. Nonetheless, if you'd like articles that are more unique, then you may want to think about a more exclusive PLR service.</p>
<p>4. Does the PLR service give you any extras?</p>
<p>Are they offering any training on methods to make use of their PLR articles? Do they supply you with ways to monetize the articles you've bought? Some PLR sites will incorporate recommended affiliate programs and some training on how to best use their articles to receive the most benefits from their service.</p>
<p>5. Are the articles written by professional writers with experience?</p>
<p>Or are they outsourced to the cheapest overseas help they can find – no matter the quality? If the articles are going to be a reflection of your business, you’ll want to ensure that the articles are well-written.</p>
<p>Really assess the value you're receiving when investing in any PLR package or service so that you don't wind up wasting your cash. I don't wish to see you make the same mistakes I did.</p>
<p>Here is a <a href="http://easyplr.com/go.php?af=1345154" target="_blank">High Quality PLR site</a> that I can recommend without feeling ashamed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Want your own fresh, organically grown produce? The 5 steps below will help you get started today!</p>
<hr />
<p> </p>
<ul>
<li>No Pesticides. Organic gardeners never use chemical pesticides. If your plants are healthy, insects should not be a problem.</li>
<li>Build up your soil. An organic garden needs soil that has a lot of organic materials in it, compost, manure, etc. This makes it loose and easy to work.</li>
<li>Never use chemicals. Chemical fertilizers are not the organic garden way, they will actually hurt the balance of your soil. Instead try to use natural fertilizers like cow manure!</li>
<li>No weeds. Even though it is hard at first, if you will just keep the weeds pulled out of the garden, eventually the weeds will grow some place else.</li>
<li>Natural Insect Predators. Try to attract natural insect predators to your garden. Lady bugs, praying mantis, and parasitic wasps are great at helping control the "bad" bugs</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The simple truth is this: As much as we marketers, wish it was different, prospects do not become buyers unless they are in the buying mindset. No matter what you do, no one buys unless and until they are in the buyers mindset.<br />
 <br />
The buyers mindset requires five critical elements.<br />
 <br />
1. A "Relevant need" which means that your prospect must have a need that your product can solve.<br />
 <br />
2. A "Current need" which means that the more in the future your prospect’s need is, the less likely they are to buy.<br />
 <br />
3. An "Urgent need" which means the need has to be important enough that the prospect wants to solve it right now.<br />
 <br />
4. Trust: there is an underlying trust element to every online transaction, especially when money is involved.<br />
  <br />
5. Knowledge: your prospect needs to clearly understand how your product will meet their need.  Some products require a lot of education before the sale, some require very little.<br />
 <br />
Here’s the problem... These conditions rarely exist right at the moment that the visitor hits your page and sees your offer.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is the time of year when honey bees begin to swarm. It's also the time of year when beekeepers hope to be able to capture local swarms for their hives.</p>
<p>If you want to have a healthy and happy hive, it is best to start with local bees. But you may be surprised to know that most beekeepers are forced to order their swarms by mail!</p>
<p>Honey bee swarms very in size and shape, but always contain many, many bees, (often in the tens of thousands). They often look like a gold-and-brown ball stuck in a tree, a strange-looking fruit, an oblong drooping glob, and anything in between.</p>
<p>Bee swarms, if left alone, are quite docile and have little interest in stinging. That's the important thing... leave them alone, until someone can come collect them. Trying to break up the swarm yourself can jeopardize their survival.</p>
<p>Top 5 Things to Know About Bee Swarm Removal</p>
<p>1) Never try to remove the swarm or break it up yourself.</p>
<p>2) Don't kill them! Honey bee swarms are of no threat if you stay away and we need as many healthy bees as we can get. They are critical to the survival of our food sources.</p>
<p>3) To find someone to remove a swarm, call your local beekeeping society or use a search engine with the following search phrase "Portland Bee Swarm Removal" (substitute your local area for the "Portland" part.</p>
<p>4) Local beekeepers would LOVE to have your swarm.</p>
<p>5) Swarms are not dangerous if left alone. Their ONLY thought is to protect their queen and find a new home.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are looking for ways to <strong>build a list of subscribers</strong>, there are many ways. These are my top 5 list building tips.</p>
<p>Add a list subscription form to every page on your website or blog.</p>
<p>Make sure you don’t overlook this simple but powerful way of gaining subscribers. People make the mistake of just placing their subscription box in 1 place. The fact is, not everyone lands on your main page. Some may end up any of the other pages of your site. You want to capture as many of those visitors as possible to your list. Because once they’ve left, it’s likely that they won’t be back.</p>
<p>Give away a gift your list can actually use.</p>
<p>All you have to do is offer your visitor a free gift in return for their subscription. This free gift can be a free ebook, software course or report. If you give a good thing way, there’s a really good chance they will pass it along to their friends and subscribers also.</p>
<p>Advertise your gift in relevant email newsletters</p>
<p>This list building strategy can give you a large amount of email addresses in a very short time. Buy yourself an ad in a ezine in your target market and place an ad with a link to your subscriber form, giving away your free gift. Look for some high-traffic, opt-in ezines for the best results.</p>
<p>Submit Articles to Article Directories</p>
<p>Just write or hire a ghostwriter to write some articles for you and submit them to as many article directories you can find. The thing here is to make sure you use the Resource box.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A simple, automated, 5 step, easy-to-follow system that will help you build a list of prospects that buy from you.</p>
<p>1 Think about your product or service.</p>
<p>Make a list of the benefits and the value of the product or service that you offer. Leave out the hype. People buy a product or service to solve a specific problem, not some super duper, cutting edge, one of a kind, solve all product or service.  Identify the benefits and the value your product or service offers.  You want to be able to solve a specific problem for a certain type of prospect.</p>
<p>2  Identify your prospects.</p>
<p>Identify the type of prospect you want to work with.  Identify what really matters to your prospects. What motivates them to seek you out? What problems do you solve for them? What keeps them awake at night.  Anything that you can come up with that helps to identify them will help you build a list of prospects quicker and easier.</p>
<p>Now that your target prospect has been identified, you have to identify the action you want them to take.</p>
<p>3  Identify the action you want them to take</p>
<p>The objective of all this is what?  To <strong>build a list of prospects</strong>!  So, you have to convince your prospects to fill in a contact form for more information and register to download a free report and get on your e-mail list.  A good list building page should have some effective bullet points on it, and it should do a thorough job of explaining what the prospect will be able to access after they enters their info.<br />
 <br />
4  Create what your list wants</p>
<p>It goes without saying that this has to be done with with your prospects best interest in mind. Offer a free report that is genuine and of value.  You must always have your customers best interest in mind.  If you are in the business of selling products or services online, then it could actually be said that you are also in the business of educating your market.</p>
<p>When it comes to your product or service, you are the expert.  Your prospects are the students, and you have a vested interest teaching them as much as you can about how they can use your products and services to improve their life.</p>
<p>5  Follow up.</p>
<p>You've presented your capabilities and ideas. Don't stop there. It doesn't do any good to build a list of prospects and not follow up with them.   Follow up with your prospect list is essential. This is a major part of the process and should be taken as seriously as the other steps.  No I am not talking about spamming, I am talking about sending emails to your client that they can't wait to receive.  </p>
<p>And finally, you want to send the emails at a regular basis, but not too often, so your subscribers don't forget who you are, or worse, get overwhelmed by your messages.  Ok, that is how you build a list of prospects.  Now go do it.</p>
