STOP! 4 Surprisingly Simple Marketing Techniques You Must Master This Year (Fast, Fun and Free)

Expert Author Ian Ross Hollander

I'm going to start with a simple confession:

NOT learning these 4 simple truisms cost me YEARS of my business life.

Had I simply started HERE, and not tried to learn every gimmick, master every gadget and listen to every "Guru" under the sun, I would have gotten where I always wanted to be FAR faster than I did.

My hope?

That someone reading this right now is at the very start of their journey... has not yet wasted weeks, months or even years trying to learn every exotic online marketing tactic under the sun, and will immediately absorb, and implement these 4 simple techniques today.

What are they?

Good question!

If you can wrap your "brain" around the 4 simple concepts below, you can literally create a hyper successful online business, almost out of thin air....and you can begin today without spending a dime.

They are:

Content
Community
Conversation
Curriculum

Basically, for time and space conversation purposes, I'm going to lay out the simple sequence of steps you need to implement the above, and I hope, after you read it, it makes sense and you get an "A-HA" moment that is meaningful for you (and truthfully, THIS article is actually an example of this strategy in real time, as I actually do everyday what I'm recommending you should try as well!)

  1. You create content that is designed to build a community.
  2. Your community is build through a "bridge page" that converts your readers into subscribers
  3. You create a conversation with your community through your follow up email sequence.
  4. You create a curriculum, or a coaching program, a product, or service around what your community WANTS and is willing to buy. (and they reveal this to you by way of the conversation that you engage in above)

The truth is, I don't care if you are a coach, consultant, teacher, trainer, online expert, or passion professional of ANY kind, you can use this 4 pronged process to have massive success, and on a shoe string budget to boot. (none of the above actually costs money, although when your list grows... you WILL need to pay for an auto-responder, but you can certainly launch the above at no costs at all)

Will the above work for an affiliate marketer as well?

Absolutely. A few years ago, I used the above approach to generate over 1 million new readers, and hundreds of thousands of visitors to an affiliate offer alone in under 9 months, working about 90 minutes a day, purely as an affiliate and just playing around.

But, if you are serous about success, you should ALWAYS "control what you create", and having your own products, services, offers or ideas is the very best way to implement the above in 2012, become super successful, and make it happen in a hurry!
