Mastering Internet Marketing and Business Lead Generation Mind Map

Posted on April 30th, 2010 in Learning Business Lead Generation, Processes | 2 Comments »

Mastering Internet marketing for business lead generation is an information overload problem for many. If you, like me, have struggled with getting your head around all the complexities I hope this mind map gives you a way to map a course of action.

The Mastering Internet Marketing mind map is the result of following Mike Dillard’s recommendation to map out Internet Marketing (mentioned in his What Works Now Short-Cut System introduction video). Mind mapping is also a way for you and I to deal with information overload. Better yet, learning by Mind Mapping is fun.

Learners and experts, like you and I, use mind maps to communicate concepts in a realm of knowledge. In this example, I try to capture the entire process of Internet marketing. I considered things helpful to you from a preparation, planning and performance plan of action point of view.

This map actually “starts” in the lower left and works it’s way around (clockwise) to the bottom right. Prioritize, Project, Prepare, Plan, Perform and Perfect are the steps covered. This is a high level map, so please do not look for exact tactics or techniques in this map. (Those just may come later.)

Mind mapping helps in project management by visually displaying the scope of a project. When we tackle a project we can see the progress made by marking up the a mind map. A little more fun when it is an attractive image instead of a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) list.

Mind mapping provides you a fabulous way to make meaning of the mess of information before you at any given time. Some fine this is a good way of coping with information overload.

Self-Directed Learners, like us, can master masses of information by creating a mind map. I wonder if getting together a mind map may by collaborating together might help us all. (We have the technology!)

I spoke about this earlier on The Teach Jim Show. The place to teach… to learn… to grow.

Network Marketing Saved Our Son!

Posted on February 27th, 2010 in Processes | 1 Comment »

As most of you know the InterNET INvestigation of Lead Generation Systems began as a way to help my son in his network marketing business. As it turns out his growth and progress have exceeded my imagination. This shares some of the back story to his progress to this point. Thanks for understanding my deviation from lead generation system information. I’m really proud of him. Here is the story:

We were worried. Health issues eroded our young adult son’s confidence and potential. Amazing to us, Network Marketing started him on to the road to recovery. He continues to progress. We are encouraged.

How is it possible? It is hard to be sure what to tell you. It started with a simple product and a dream planted in a willing mind.

The product was nearly a perfect match for the health issues at hand. Well, maybe not perfect but it filled in the gap and got him going. It was what was needed. It wasn’t like we hadn’t tried anything before. Either the product didn’t help solve the issues or our son was not ready to try the remedy suggested. It turns out this product would have never been a match through typical channels. The company makes no product claims of healing or helping particular diseases or ailments.

The product was introduced to our son the way all good network marketing and word of mouth advertising goes. One person told another. Someone told my son. He tired it and felt an immediate effect. He got the results they claimed and it came in less than 15 minues. Wow. He could feel the difference immediately. This was not the entire solution. It was just the first simple small step on his road to recovery. The key being he took the first step. A seed of hope was planted.

Next, he joined the company and began to attend meetings. He soaked it all in. He was a sponge. His thinking began to change. His internal personal development began. Slowly he was doing more and more challenging tasks. These tasks took a lot out of him initially. Slowly he gained comfort with being on calls. Then it was participating in small meetings. Next he took charge of contacting others and involving them in his efforts. Before you know it he was doing things thought to be out of his abilities.

Leadership in the organization caught on to his story. Soon he was presenting his story as a source of inspiration to others in the organization. He rose to every challenge and met it head on. Now he presents at meetings, shares his story and is having success in his business.

Yes, many of the health issues still strike him. And yes, there will be many more challenges to come. Life is that way. Network marketing gave our son a new life. He now faces challenges and works through them. The difference is part physical improvements but moreover it is the attitude and determination he gained while learning to work his network marketing business.

Today our son is back! He is on a progressive path and it is exciting to see his growth. He now talks of dreams and ambitions. He seeks to help others.

Thanks to Network Marketing we have our son back!

(Inspired by the story of Tyler Harris Here is his story.)

The Process of Leading Prospects to INvolvement

Posted on September 8th, 2009 in Lead Generation Systems, Processes | No Comments »

Lead Generation Systems / Funded Proposal Systems have a single goal. Get prospects into your business. So how do these systems help prospects progress to INvolvement with YOU?

The answer is easy but the course can be a bit complicated. During the investigation of these systems the process became clear as each system guru tried to teach how their system worked. Thankfully, I ran into Jay Grissom‘s generic flow chart about the time I was looking to simplify this issue for you. His detailed chart shows how complex it can be*.

My simplified chart skims over many of the details but gives you the overview you need to see how a lead generation / funded proposal system works for you. Enjoy the video of the process.
