Ultimate Prospector

From their website www.ultimateprospector.com:

“Ultimate Prospector is an advanced personalized marketing and contact management system.  It has been designed to enable you to stay focused on making the sale and growing your business while leaving the time consuming sorting and shifting of prospects to the automatic features of the system.”

This system is everything they say it is.  Which is exactly why it did not perform very well in this evaluation.  The criteria used here was meant to evaluate systems that provide Internet marketing support. The Ultimate Prospector does not.  This system tracks interactions with prospects and manages the information about those connections in just a few quick clicks away. In this area focus the Ultimate Prospector system should fair OK.  Let’s see.

I hope you enjoy this review of  Ultimate Prospector.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

Personal branding in the Ultimate Prospector is available in the back end of prospect interactions.  On the front end, you get five capture pages. Each page  targets a different market niche.  After a prospect submits the capture page form they land on a marketing/sales page.  You can choose the default marketing page provided by the system or prospects can be directed to a page of your creation. This is where personal branding and customization are possible.

Personal branding options are also available with email messages you can send out.  (The actual auto-responder series connected to your capture page does not appear to be customizable.)

Personal branding on the marketing/sales page and in the optional out a series emails leaves you lacking in branding yourself.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

There appear to be no income streams with this system. You can get the system free when you help five people use the Ultimate Prospector.  You do this by having people use your affiliate URL.  (Here is mine: http://inetin.EasyHomeBusinessIdea.com/join )

Within the system there are places to purchase leads. There does not appear to be any affiliate or shared commissions for purchasing these leads.

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

The capture pages were beautiful professionally designed and very attractive.  The page was informative and persuasive but not too pushy. I did not test the conversion rate of the landing pages.  The capture page form required 14 fields of information.  This  many fields will causes the prospect to express their interest by taking time to complete the entire form.  This will likely be a higher quality lead but is also likely to have fewer people complete the process. No question leads coming to the system will really have a desire to get to know you. I wonder a little if the message on the page is compelling enough for people complete the form.

While waiting for the landing / marketing page an attractive flash animation played while a page and information was being processed. The default landing / marketing page informed me I’d be contacted by somebody soon.  No additional sales information nor additional directions were given.  I felt like this left me unsure what to do next but wait. This is a customizable portion of the site so I’m looking to make the landing / marketing page introducing me and the solutions I provide.

As soon as the capture page was submitted a lead came in the back office reflecting the new person.  The recent site activity listed the new prospect.  When clicking on the prospect It showed the pages and times of visits.  The other information collected on the capture page was included in the customer profile. This provided a complete picture of the prospect.  The customer profile page also showed local information (weather and a map) useful for when you go to contact the individual.  Is also a strong section for keeping notes.

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list?

The Ultimate Prospector has a strong relationship building, customer interaction tracking system.  There are key data elements the system maintains on each prospect.  Aside from basic contact information, the system encourages the use of custom fields allowing additional information in the system.  Details from the capture page include such things as the best time to contact, the reason for their filling out the capture page, their desired income, their level of interest, the available time and the amount they are willing to  investment.

The work flow and accessibility of information are strong in the system.  There are classifications for pipeline stages with such things as interested, qualified, member customer, voicemail, follow-up, and archive.  They also offer connections to the social media of your prospect.  Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter are available in the contact management solution.  By using tabs the spaces is kept clear with only the information you need at your fingertips.

Some systems tout that the autoresponder messages build a relationship.  The system does not.  In fact autoresponder series is only seven are eight messages long.  The strength of the system is in its support for phone and personal interaction tracking.  This is done through events to do this and notes.  They also encourage direct e-mail with a feature called one touch e-mails.  Duplicatable interactions are encouraged through customizable phone scripts.

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

The system is very easy to use.   Organization of task groups and information type organized by tabs is helpful.

The light coloration and gradient element style ads to professional feel.  The screen to responsive except in the case of loading the entire list of leads.  As the number of leads increase the page load time also increases.  But that’s to be expected.

On the capture page users experience rigid and strict on its validation rules.  For example I put my Google voice vanity number as my phone number.  When trying  the form I was informed that this phone number was not from the state and I said I was in.  This is strong and horrible if I’m really interested in that really is a phone number I use from a correspondence and I’m not going to be able to enter the system. not good.

My 800 number was also rejected with the same validation instruction.  Finally, after entering my actual phone number which is grounded in the state I live, I was able to submit the form.  This really made it difficult for a potential prospect to even get their information into the system.  Making the validation less stringent might help more people make it past the capture page.

On the other hand while importing leads the data integrity controls were exceptional.  This import function is very strong.  It had predictive field mapping which seemed accurate enough.  There was also the ability to add a custom field in the mapping. This was very strong.  It also forced you to assure every field had been considered before allowing you to do the upload.  Uploads speed was not lightning fast but what you want on a web upload import solution.  At the end, of the upload the system provided immediate feedback on the number of accurate uploads and the number of errors.  The fields not imported or place in to a report for download.  Nice.

The error log generated by the system was downloadable and showed not only the errors records but it included the reason for the error. It was protecting against duplicates as well as invalid information from invalid e-mail addresses.

The more I worked with the system the stronger the interface and work flow appeared to me.

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

While the system is simple to use and straightforward, there is not any system training.  There could be some direction on ways to use the list tools or ways to perform some tasks. There was none.

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

The system support does not appear to be directly assessable from inside the back office.  On the front end landing page for the ultimate prospector you find contact information through toll free number,  Frequently Asked Questions and a How It Works  focus mostly on answering questions of perspective system purchasers.

I do not find a system specific help section except for the contact phone number and the sales materials.  I did not try their customer service.

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

The Ultimate Prospector is not a system built around teaching or coaching Internet Marketing.  Is a system focused on building a relationship with your customer through the use of their tools.  Accordingly, there is no coaching or training on how to promote your site or how to generate traffic to your site.  The capture pages do not accommodate personalized or company specific search engine optimization.  This is not entirely true.  Responsive Data is more than happy to work with companies and individuals to prepare and optimize capture pages. This customization in not part of the system out of the box.  The lead capture pages exist and it is up to you the system user to bring people to those pages.

Personal Development Training – Will the system support my growth too?

Ultimate Prospector has no personal development training built in to the system.  You can learn a lot by analyzing the prepared marketing materials like the emails and the phone scripts.  There really is nothing geared specifically to guide you through your personal development while working with the system. This is a robust tool prepared for use with corporations with no need for personal development training.

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

The first impressions of the system are very strong because of clean, crisp up front functional is impressive.  This system was built to help manage a large number of leads and prospects.  Customer relationship and prospect interaction management shines in this  system.  It has one of the stronger customer relationship support and building systems of all the systems I’ve reviewed.  The interface of this system make it very easy to use.  Many other systems could learn from Ultimate Prospector.

All the features you need are within easy reach.  The ease of use and crisp design provide an overall good impressed. Area examined by this evaluation but not part of the system include, personal branding, creating your own capture pages, getting help in your Internet Marketing strategies and training on how to generate more traffic and get more leads.  When you try to move into these other areas, common in many lead generation systems, you see Ultimate Prospector falls short.  These criteria may not matter to you or your company.  It is clear that half of our evaluation criteria does not match the software solution were evaluating.

As a contact management solution the system is for strong.  It probably has the easiest to use interface for creating notes and tasks and events for Prospects all from a single interface.  It also provides single click access to email, phone scripts, notes and other features to assist you as you tracking interacts with your customers and potential customers.

Ultimate Prospector

After getting over the high quality of the front end capture pages and the graphically rich back office I found a strong system focused on Leads and managing leads.  This system is not strong in the area of Internet Marketing. Like most system, it depends on how you prefer to  grow your business.  Your needs will determine your preference in a system. Given the strengths and weaknesses of this system it just may meet your needs. Please check it out.

Best of success,

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.

I’d love to have you collaborate with me on a map!  Leave a comment. Let me know.

My lead system pro (MLM lead system pro) has added some themes and the ability to purchase the conquer the Internet DVD in bulk with affiliate ID codes for offline marketing purposes.

Mike Dillard’s Magnetic Sponsoring has added a new affiliate program.  The program is called “What Works Now Short-cut System”.  The program was released today, March 22, 2010.  This system focuses on the problem most Internet marketers feel when they get going.  Information overload is solved by Mike Dillard monthly delivery of a concise strategy specific package with robust video.  The What Works Now program brings together some of the best Network Marketing’s Internet Marketing gurus for delivery of content worth knowing and applying to build your business. .

Leveraging the learning of others is a sign of a leader.  Leveraging the learning and experience of top leaders produces exceptional value worthy of your consideration.

Self-Directed learner’s utilize this strategy for effective learning.  There’s no sense in trying to learn from bunch of people who don’t know what they’re doing.  It makes sense to find the experts in the field and do what they do.  Following one expert carries with it the risk that they might get it wrong.  When you follow multiple experts in a field you soon learn that they offset each other’s weaknesses. As long as you choose carefully the practices that makes most sense for you, you can learn faster better and smarter than your competition.

Over the years, efficient marketing strategies have proven successful for generating sales leads. Why would you want to experiment with inefficient, wasteful practices when it comes to generating leads for your business? Building your business online is no different. If you haven’t got a system in place then you’re likely wasting your time and money. Sure you might want a bill your own system. If you have the expertise you’ll probably be able to build one that better meets your needs. If you’re new to conducting online business you will probably want to jump start your business building activities with an effective business lead generation system.
A system provides you a structured framework for learning and performing proven best practices in online marketing and relationship building. The principles involved in successfully building your business with online marketing are built into the experiences provided by systems. You get step-by-step, minute-by-minute directions on how to carry out complex and sometimes complicated Internet Marketing strategies.
More than a structure; more than a system you get the training behind the modern lead generation system is essential for success. It is like buying a book. When you buy a book you get a neatly packaged predetermined set of content. The author’s compilation of his experience and background are summarized in a single place. This saves you hours of time learning these things individually for yourself.
The world of Internet Marketing and online business is complicated. Many struggle for long periods of time and expend large sums of money before they master the required critical skills. Your success in building an online business depends on cutting to the masses of information quickly and efficiently. A lead generation system does this for you.

A business lead generation system does a lot more than provide concisely packaged education you need. The builders of most of these systems are exceptional professionals or experts themselves. Their training and mentoring is worth more than the monthly fee the systems provided.

There are many other benefits you will gain from building your business using a business lead generation system. Enjoying the  leads you’ll be generating by using an existing proven business lead generation system is the primary benefit. Other benefits you’ll discover as you work with the system.

Another trend in the network marketing industry is collaboration.  According to Mike’s announcement What Works Now Short-Cut System will incorporate information and insights from some of the top Network Marketing leaders.  The combined knowledge of Deagan Smith, Ann Sieg, Jonathan Budd, Mike Klingler, Mike Dillard and others means the monthly mailing will likely be filled with the best knowledge available.

Here is the announcement made to affiliates:

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!

Next MLM Lead System Pro launches their “Conquer the Internet”* marketing campaign/funnel.  A new capture page / sales letter are out so I write about them.  Oh and while I’ m at it, I should add them to the ultimate “split test” at http://inetin.biz so you can compare the latest capture pages from the latest system updates.  Nice. Done.

LEARNING BY ANALYSIS: Like all the extreme experts will tell you, “learned from the works of the masters”.  (Mike Dillard talks of spending hours each day going over sales letters to master the art of copy writing.)  We can learn from the latest capture pages from the latest updates  in much the same way.

To keep it simple, let’s Examine the MLM Lead System Pro “Conquer The Internet” Marketing Funnel/Campaign Launched 2/10/2010.  It is the newest (for now).  These guys (Norbert Orlewicz, Brian Fanale, & Todd Schlomer) know what they are doing… ask ‘em.

This capture page works more because of what is  NOT SAID!  Yea the video shows… Travel… Freedom… Luxury….  while the guys are talking about reaching huge numbers from nothing.  This page screams to the emotions in the struggling business owners / Internet marking guru wanna be.  The story then delivers on specific pain points from Norbert Orlewicz and Brian Fanale’s past and masterfully hits those exact points with solutions they say the MLM Lead System Pro provides.

Let me spare you the details… Watch the video… you will get the feel

Or you can visit the “Conquer The Internet” page directly.

At the end of the video you got a glimpse  of Jonathan Budd and a few of his new 7 Figure Networker System capture pages. He has included Katie Freiling and Jenn Lawlor to add a more polished, refined presentation style.

You will want to enjoy and compare all these capture pages live at The Ultimate “Split Test” Challenge at http://www.inetin.biz.  (Don’t like a page, hit refresh!)

LEARNING BY ANALYSIS: As you view these capture pages listen to your heart.  How do you feel?  Is the message believable?  Likely for you?  Generalize your impressions into the principles you will use as you create effective capture pages to build your business. (Remember, both these systems are big on letting you brand yourself through campaign capture page customization.)
