Streamlining the Process ~ Action Required

But it won’t hurt I promise.

I feel like I’m confusing the hell out of people. They sign up to get a free report about how to Squidoo then they end up getting a lot of information about blogging ~ which isn’t what they were looking for. I get it. It doesn’t make sense.

Here’s what I’ve done to solve the problem.

Today I put together a free report called Create a Successful Blog in 2 Hours a Day.

It’s a step by step action plan for creating a profitable blog in… well you guessed it, 2 hours a day. :)

I also created a spreadsheet to help you keep track of what you’re doing and what needs to be done. (You’ll find that link in the report) It’s a good report and I think you’ll like it.

Here’s how it’s going to work.

If you want to continue learning about blogging topics sign up in the box below and I will send you the report and you will continue along as you have been. You’ll get emails of new blog posts etc.

If you don’t care about blogging and you just want to learn about Squidoo do NOT sign up below and you will not get email announcements about new posts anymore and you will only receive emails from me that are about Squidoo.

Sound fair?

I will no longer be sending out blog post announcements to my current list ~ if you want new content alerts and more great stuff on blogging you’ll have to sign up below. Don’t worry ~ I’ll make it worth your while. I promise.

So here’s the opt in box ~ fill in your name and email address. You’ll get a confirmation email you need to click the link in ~ then the next email will have the link to the new report.

I think this will allow me to provide you all exactly the information  you need/want and I’ll stop being so confused about how to do this! Win/Win.

Can’t wait to hear what you think of the new report!

I assume because people are here they are trying to make money online. It has been my experience when you think first and foremost about making the money it doesn't work. Creating the relationships online with people in your niche and your readers IS what it takes to make money, but your focus has to be on what's in it for THEM, not so much what's in it for ME. If you continually ask yourself is this going to be helpful to my readers ~ instead of "how is this going to make me money" you'll be 10 steps ahead of the game for sure. So yes, you want to think of ways to help your readers (that will in turn make you money) :) Check out this post for more of an explanation: http://internetmarketingformommies.com/how-to-mone...

That's great to hear. I think I am a little confused, or simply missing the point here. In the response you gave me about you talk about "we’ll be working through everything you need to do to create a profitable blog".

But in a recent post you made last week, you talk about the fact the purpose of blogging and you said "I bet you're thinking it's to make money! NOPE. It's not."

So is that because you are trying to make the point that relationships are more important first and foremost and the money comes later, or that we shouldn't even be thinking about the money at this stage?

thanks : )

Oh sure ~ we're still doing challenges ~ content will stay the same we'll be working through everything you need to do to create a profitable blog. The only thing that is changing is who gets the email alerts for what. :)

Hey Jackie,
Just to clarify, will you still be doing the weekly challenges? or is the 2 hour deal it now?

If you got the squidoo christmas cash blueprint you're already on that list. If not here it is: www.squidoochristmascash.com/blueprint

Umm yea, I probably unsubscribed after grabbing the freebie (before I knew you as well as I do now) hehe. I just resubscribed under my real newsletter address. :)

That's strange Todd because I too have XP. hmmm... maybe it's a different version of excel? I'll try to figure out what I can do.

You can certainly scale the system if you have more time than 2 hours a day. :)

Jackie,

I just finished reading the report. It is excellent. The one thing I have been lacking is a laid out plan. I have been meaning to do this for the longest time. I work 6-8 hours a day on my blog (I love every second of it... most of the time :) ) so I need to adjust the plan a little. But, yours is an excellent base to follow.

I tried to download the 2 hour spreadsheet but it would not work because I have windows xp. You need to save it a certain way for us people who are a little behind with operating systems :)

Thanks!

Thanks Jackie!

I can't wait for the free report! Free ones are always nice :)

Yes, there is an email blog list, an email squidoo list, and the RSS feed for the blog.

The squidoo list will probably get things I do not blog about ~ since squidoo stuff doesn't always fit in where I'm at blogging. And yes, the blog list will probably get some fun and exciting things I don't necessarily blog about ~ that's part of the fun of being on the list. ;)

DRAT! LOL OK ya got me. I just signed up for blogging, where's the Squidoo list?

Hey Kelly,

Give it a minute ~ it seems to be taking Getresponse a bit to send the next email. It'll come. If you don't get it in the next hour or so email me and I'll send you the link.

Hey Jackie -

I signed up for the blog course, and got the confirmation email, but after I confirmed, I didn't receive the next email with the course. Is it supposed to come later?

and Happy Easter! (I miss Easter - living in Lima, Peru now, and they don't have all the fun stuff here like we do :( )

Jackie...I have been following you since before the Christmas report, but the Christmas report and subsequent posts about those product lenses really opened my eyes and taught me a lot about IM. Your information about PR on page 1, SEO Tools, Web 2.0, and backlinks really made things 'click' with me and I am now making consistant money. Not a lot yet, but consistant money. I now use Squidoo to point back to my money pages. I am doing more niche sites than big blogs, but your information works for that too. So a big thank you! I am signing up to get your report, because I know there will be something in there that I can use!

Thanks Jackie! Looking forward to getting your report!

Happy Easter!

Sorry jackie, I'm a little confused. Is this replacing the RSS feed which sends every post?
.-= Dennis Edell @ Direct Sales Marketing´s last blog ..Blog Comments and Blog Comment Contests – Lets Chat about Paying for Comments =-.

If you are subscribed to RSS then you'll still get updates via whatever source you subscribed to get notified.

However, the emails that you get with a personalized message about the new post are NOT RSS ~ that's me. :) And I will only be sending them to the new list to keep the Squidoo list clean and about Squidoo.

I'm really excited to be able to share more squidoo stuff with that list ~ since it's been confusing for me (and some of you as well I'm sure) when I want to send out squidoo related stuff ~ because now we're talking about blogging etc.

Hope that clears it up.
.-= Jackie´s last blog ..Can Playing More Create More Money? =-.

It does, a bit, but just so I'm 100%.....there's a blogging list, and a squidoo list, but the feed I get has everything, yes?

Do you send things to these respective lists that you DO NOT blog about?

If yes I'll sign up to each, if no it would just be duplication.

Hi Jackie,

Hi, I was trying to figure out this luv thing and I'm still at a loss for figuring this out. Do I have to register for an account? If so why does it say it will only accept small characters and then it will not?
.-= Pat´s last blog ..Hello world! =-.

Jackie, I enjoy all the information you send out! I have
signed up to the blogging list because although I'm not a
beginner a log of the information you share is very useful.

I started following you because of Christmas Squidoo Cash
after last Xmas and I still want to get whatever you write
about that...

Easter is so much fun with young children at home, happy
Easter to you and your family!
