Signature Marketing - So Simple Why Doesn't Everyone Do It ?

Signature Marketing is so simple. It's just taking a few minutes to set up a completely automated way to advertise your business, by adding your website link in your online "signature blocks".

Have a look at any official correspondence out there, or even look in your own email inbox. Many people put messages, website links, their contact information, etc in their signature blocks. So why aren't you already doing it?

You need to feel proud to tell people about your business, and this is a completely automated and rejection-free way of doing it. So what are the 3 methods that I recommend that you use?

1. Signature Blocks in your emails.

2. Automated email received responses.

3. Signature Blocks in online forum posting.

Signature Blocks In Your Emails

First, let's set up your Signature block that automatically gets attached to EVERY SINGLE email that you send out. By automating this process every time an email leaves your computer, you will be advertising your business. Pretty smart, eh? Not only that you will never pre-qualify anyone including friends, family, co-workers, professional contacts, etc, because they will ALL automatically get your signature block each time you email them.

If you still doubt that it will work, let's just take a leap of faith. In addition to people seeing your Signature block on each email, think about the fact that each time you send an email to them, you will be sending the SAME advertisement along with it. As you may know in advertising, repetition works.

So let's set up your Signature Block for your emails. You can contact the support or help for your particular email provider for full instructions. I will show you how to do it using Microsoft Outlook, the email software that I use.

First go to: Tools, Options, Mail Format - and then click on Signatures...

Click on NEW, and name your signature file. Then add the info in the bottom of the page and click on SAVE. Also be sure to set it up so that the signature file gets attached in all replies/forwards as well.

Here's a sample of a signature block that I'm currently using. You can copy it if you like, just make sure you put your website link in the P.S.

Make sure you set this up for every email that you send, reply to and forward. Over time you will get a response from this type of advertising, but be patient, it does take time.
Automated Email Received Responses

This email marketing technique has the potential to annoy some people, however, it is effective in consistently displaying your website and offer to many, many people.

Every single time someone sends you an email, you can set up your email service provider to send an automated response saying that you have received the email. In the response you can customize the message to promote your business. Don't try to over-sell in the responses or people may get frustrated with receiving your constant return emails. Rather use an approach that is more polite and thankful for their communication.

Here's an example of a customized response email that you can use or simply write your own.
Hello and thank you for the email. I have become somewhat more busy with my new online business, so I wanted to make sure that you know I have received your email. I will look at it soon and if required, will personally respond to you soon.

Sincerely,

Dwayne Powell

SPECIAL TIP:

I've seen some people that grow their lists by setting up an email address specifically just to do "reverse marketing" - which is essentially opting into people's websites and lists so that they can use an automated reply system to send an email "thank you" back to the person every time they send you an email. If you are going to do this type of marketing you will definitely need a specific email address to do so, otherwise you'll be absolutely bombarded with offers and emails.

This method is a considered in the "gray" area. Some marketers love it, others think it's dishonest. I am sharing this method with you and I know many people that have gotten some response from it. So you can decide if you want to use it.

Simply set up an email address, set up the "thank you" autoreply, then do searches on Google for home businesses and network marketing sites. Some of the best ones are the company sponsored sites because these network marketers usually are novices at internet marketing and will be using their direct email addresses so when you optin, every time their autoresponder sends you an email, they will get your reply advertisement.

Remember don't be pushy in your email, it should be a "thank you" type email reply. That way the owner of the site won't get mad at you.

DO NOT GET CAUGHT UP IN ALL THE OFFERS AVAILABLE. REMEMBER YOU ARE MARKETING, DON'T OPTIN AND READ EVERYTHING, JUST OPTIN AND MOVE ON. LET YOUR AUTOMATED SYSTEM TO THE REST OF THE WORK.
Signature Blocks In Online Forum Posting

So what is a Forum? A Forum is an online community and discussion forum for internet users. Forums are often stomping grounds for the best Internet marketers on the planet. A Forum is a training ground for thousands of up and coming Internet marketers. A Forum is a place to share ideas, find answers, make friends and develop partnerships. A Forum is an organic, always growing, support resource for your entire Internet marketing business. In addition to all of this, Forums are *great* places to PROMOTE your New Rich website!

In reality, a Forum membership is more valuable than all the Internet marketing eBooks, training programs and membership sites you could ever join. In fact, most of the people publishing Internet marketing eBooks, training programs and membership sites are active forum members!

It is said that if you want to become successful in something, you should hang around people who are already successful in that particular endeavor. If you plan to be a successful Internet marketer, there is no better place in the world for you to hang out than a Forum.

(REMEMBER NOT TO GET CAUGHT UP IN FORUMS FULL OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING AND TALKING ABOUT NEGATIVE THINGS - YOU SHOULD LEAVE IMMEDIATELY IF YOU FIND A FORUM FULL OF THOSE PEOPLE - IT WILL JUST DRAG YOU DOWN!!)

Everyone in MOST Forums share a common goals to make money on the Internet. As you start participating regularly in a Forum, you'll find yourself learning faster and earning more.
You can also join forums for ANYTHING that you are interested in. Maybe knitting, hockey, baseball, stamp collecting, video games, history, etc. You can have some fun talking about things you like while promoting your business. In these forums you will want to promote the "business opportunity" website: your www.dhpsite.com website. BUT, make sure to follow the instructions below, you don't want to be accused of just being a spammer or advertiser. If you do it right, you can get a lot of business in a positive way.


Find some relevant and interesting forums.

Simply go to your favourite search engine and start looking for Online Business Forums.

Sign up for an account.

Simply follow the instructions provided on that page to sign up for your account now. After you create your free account, be sure to save your Forum usernames and passwords in a safe place. Once your account is created, login and take your first look at the forum.

Inside the Forums, you'll notice the many different sections, familiarize yourself with them. Feel free to complete all the fields of your Forum profiles as desired including: "Hobbies", "Latest News", "Favorite Quote", "Bio", etc. Adding this info will allow other members get to know more about you. This is not required, but it's a great way to present yourself to the forum community.

The most important field (for marketing purposes) inside your profile is the "Signature" field on the right-hand side of the page.

Setup your Sig file in your forum account.

What's a sig file? A sig file is an ad placed at the end of each of your forum posts.

Sig file ads in the forum are immortal. In other words, they can remain active and produce profits for you forever. Even when a discussion (thread) is no longer being actively posted to, it remains in the forum archives forever. These archives are often indexed by Google and other major search engines and discussions that you've participated in are often found by people using the search engines.

I'm going to give you the exact same ad I use in my Forum sig files to pull in sales every day. Once you set this up, the ad placed at the bottom of all your forum posts will look just like this:
Discover How You Can Get Paid To
Generate Leads For Your Business.

(Use your own "ad copy" - you don't have to copy the above sig file)

Remember if you are in a non-business forum, you will want to relate to people that might be interested in working from home. You can use the PS from our early signature block:

Post, Participate and Contribute to a forum.

What's a forum post? A forum post is when you respond to a discussion in progress (also known as a thread) by typing a response and submitting it.

The Forums contain thousands of discussions in progress.

A discussion starts when someone makes an original post. Then, people start responding to that post to create a dialogue. One person might respond to the original post, another person might respond to the person who responded and someone else might respond to that person's post. A forum discussion is a great way to see many different sides of an issue because everyone gets to share their information and respond completely to a topic without being interrupted.

You should also notice that some people reply to the discussion more than once. In fact, some people stay tuned into the discussion and post replies whenever appropriate. Forum discussions can go on for days, sometimes weeks.

When you post to a discussion in a forum, your response will be included as part of the discussion. At the end of your response, your sig file ad will appear so that everyone who reads that thread in the future has the opportunity to see your ad.

As you will see by reading through pages of replies, most of the posters have a signature file ad at the bottom of their post. So, these people are responding to the post by sharing information and promoting their business at the same time. That's exactly what you need to be doing! :-)

The more you post in the forum, the more inbound links you'll get to your website. The more inbound links you get, the more visitors you'll attract. The more visitors you attract, the more sales you'll make. It really is that simple.

In addition, many non-Forum members actually do access forum archives through the search engines and other inbound Forum links so as long as you have been participating regularly in Forum discussions, you have a great chance to pull in steady sales through your New Rich sales page from the Forums. I do, and you can too.

Before you start participating in the forums, let's discuss what participation means.

In a nutshell, it means contribution.

Within the Forums, there are *thousands* of discussions in progress RIGHT NOW. Within each of these discussions are many people posting and adding their own thoughts to the discussion. And, while their posting and adding their own thoughts to the discussion, they are also automatically promoting their business through their forum signature file ad. This is what YOU need to start doing right now!

After you take a look at all the sections available inside the forum, it's time to consider how to put a Forum to use for you. My goal is for you to make as much money as possible with the New Rich system and your business.

You can start participating in all forums. However, the "Main Discussion" sections usually get the most activity so I urge you to spend the majority of your time there for now. Remember, my goal is to help you make the most money possible from your efforts and I'm guiding you accordingly.

Make at least 25 posts today. Yes, make AT LEAST 5 new posts today as responses to 5 different discussions in progress.

The thing to remember now is that you are in the up-start marketing stage of your business right now. To make money, you need to spread the word about your business to as many people as possible.

That's it.

Every time you make a post in forums, your profit pulling ad will be placed at the bottom of your post for everyone to see. Welcome to the exciting world of forum marketing!
Forum Etiquette and Manners

It's very important to realize that your post itself should NOT be an advertisement. You are participating in the forum to add value to the discussion itself. Then, like leaving your business card for people to pick up, your signature file ad will be available for everyone who is reading the discussion to see and take advantage of if they want to. If you post ads within the body of your itself, your post will probably get deleted by moderator and other Forum members will not take you or the offer in your signature file seriously.

Think about it as you're walking into someone's living room into a group of people that have been talking for 3 hours together. You then walk to the center of the room and yell at the top of your lungs:
"WHO WANTS TO BUY MY STUFF???"

How well would that go over with the group? If you won't do it in a face-to-face situation, then it's probably not appropriate for a forum post. So the main key to realize is to be yourself and contribute naturally to forum discussions.

Never post with the single-minded attention of getting your signature file ad seen. Post consistently with the purpose of adding value to the community. In fact, when you contribute to the forum, people will start appreciating you and some will naturally respond to the offer in your ad.

Feel free to use similar posts in multiple different forums, which will allow you to save time of writing and reading. Sometimes I like to start a new forum with some content, or a question, and put it in a few different forums. Make sure to return back to respond to your new forum contacts.
