Sneezing Baby Panda teaches MLM video marketing secrets…

Watch this incredible baby panda sneeze up a storm, and learn what it has to do with MLM video marketing…

Alright… YOU CAUGHT ME!

I’m a sucker for those funny animal Youtube videos.

Don’t ask me why… I just do!

And apparently a gazillion of people out there feel the same way I do about these videos.

(If you don’t care for funny animal videos and want to skip to the training, click this link)

Want proof?

How about this hilarious 16 second video has gathered more than 108 MILLION views (108,019,117 at the time of writing).

Ridiculous it may be, but this is not an isolated case.

6 seconds of “The Dramatic Chipmunk” has gathered more than 30 MILLION views.

Talking cat – Almost 18.5 MILLION views now.
(This one actually inspired me to start learning a new foreign language, by the way…)

Cat gets caught barking by a human and resumes meowing – 5.7 MILLION views.


Alright, so what does this mean?

That we all dress up in animal costumes and make a fool out of ourselves to get views?

More importantly, how does this relate to adding to the bottom line of your MLM business?

The reality is that there are several crucial MLM video marketing lessons in how to focus the viewer’s attention and turn them into subscribers, raving fans and eventually business partners.

Most people talk about making their videos online and thinking that the leads will just flow in like clockwork if they start rambling in front of the camera…

But the truth is that none of that will happen until you know what types of videos to create, and how to create them…

Rating System for MLM video marketing

MLM video marketingAfter watching and studying many types of videos and used videos to explode the income by as much as 8 times for my clients and myself… I’d like to share a simple rating system you can follow to more engaging, attention-grabbing videos.

Sounds good?

Alright, so here we go from the highest converting types of video to the lowest

1. Videos that are personal in nature, usually from friends, family, confidants or buddies from a hobby club of sorts

2. Entertainment videos (e.g. the funny animal Youtube videos mentioned here)

3. Edu-tainment videos (e.g. The exclusive expert interviews I did with business leaders)

4. Education videos (e.g. Step-by-step how-to videos)

5. Advertising/Marketing videos (e.g. Infomercials)

6. SPAM videos! (e.g. misleading titles that get you to click and advertise an offer like herbal Viagra or something)

Now that you have a basic idea of what keeps peoples eyes on the tube the most, start paying attention to where each of your own videos fits into the above 6 categories… which should give you some clue as to how many “views” your videos have received.

Simple 4-step formula for MLM video marketing

Once you figured out what type of video you want to create, let’s talk about a simple formula on how to create high-converting videos that turn viewers into subscribers, fans and eventually buyers or take whatever action you’d like them to take next.

You can adapt a very simple 4-step process to sketch out your video creation formula.

It is called A-I-D-A.

  • A – Attention (Awareness): attract the attention of the customer.
  • I – Interest: raise customer interest by focusing on and demonstrating advantages and benefits (instead of focusing on features, as in traditional advertising).
  • D – Desire: convince customers that they want and desire the product or service and that it will satisfy their needs.
  • A – Action: lead customers towards taking action and/or purchasing.

This is a formula I learned years ago from a top marketer originally to apply into my copywriting.

However, I realized that this formula can be used in pretty much any of my marketing efforts, such as video marketing.

It worked out perfectly.

Here is just one of many examples, an EDUCATIONAL video (#4 from the rating system), that I created by following the A-I-D-A formula.

I then posted this video at a social networking site for home business professionals called Better Networker, and it got featured in Better Networker’s newsletter and generated about 70 leads in just 2 days just from this source along.

MLM video marketing

Next time I’ll create a follow-up video to break down how A-I-D-A was applied to it for you.

Anyhow, keep in mind that any strategy, either this MLM video marketing formula, some ninja SEO trick or whatever, has no value to you until you take action…

So take what we talked about in this post and apply them into your business.

To kick your video marketing efforts into high-gear, I recommend that you use the same tool I’ve been using for years to get hoards of traffic to your videos… Click here to check it out and get started with just $1.

Facebook Video Calling by Skype – The next evolution of online social networking and marketing?

Facebook video calling is now LIVE…

and you can access Facebook video calling on https://www.facebook.com/videocalling

Already powered by Bing (formerly MSN, and then Live… operated by Microsoft) for its web search results, Facebook seems to be enamored of Microsoft as it powers up its video calling feature with the help of Skype, which was recently acquired by Microsoft.

While video calling is hardly anything new, the integration between a popular, gigantic social networking platform like Facebook and the ability to instantly start a video chat with one (soon to be group, I predict) of the 700-million some members is nothing less than breathtaking.

Facebook Video Calling

Facebook video calling prediction – The Good

Obviously an immediate benefit of the video calling feature saves us the time from having to get our friends’ Skype ID, send them an invite and wait for them to get on Skype.

We can now do it in one swoop… Woohooo!

This convenience feature alone is enough to make me smile

:)

Those that engage in ethical business activities can also now use Facebook video calling to connect with prospects, clients and teammates more effectively and quickly.

Facebook video calling prediction – The Bad

Facebook has a bad habit of changing its policies a tad bit too frequently, causing its members to cringe a tad bit too frequently as well.

With Facebook video calling will there be a day when advertisers can send you video messages directly if you don’t adjust your privacy settings?

Or maybe put your face in a video commercial without you knowing it because you “forgot” to uncheck that box in your account settings somewhere?

Hmm… I wonder.

Today is Day 1 of Facebook video calling so it’s really too early to make any judgement on its impact to its members… and the rest of the world.

Oh yeah, and add me on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/jerrycchen so one of the days we can give Facebook video calling a try!

MLM Training – Types of backlinks for SEO and how they impact SERP

Backlinks for SEO are (almost) like votes in an election except not all links are created equal… Here’s a quick summary of different types of links and how to use them effectively.

Building backlinks for SEO used to be very very simple.

1) You take the URL of a web page
2) Put it on another webpage on another website
3) Create an active hyperlink directly to the page you want rank for

That’s it!

Backlinks for SEOBut over the years, SEO has grown in its popularity as a way to drive traffic on a ongoing basis, causing the algorithm to rank high in search results to change rapidly, to become increasingly complex and to become much harder to predict.

While backlinks for SEO still means linking from web pages on others’ sites to yours, the manner with which we direct these links is critical to our success in ranking high in SERP.

And of course, this applies to any niche you’re targeting whether it’s network marketing or something else because SEO is SEO… the search algorithms don’t change.

Unable to display content. Adobe Flash is required.

I’m going to attempt to break down the different types of backlinks for SEO and suggest a few ways to use them to maximize results.

Before I do that, I must state the 3 Golden Rules of backlinks for SEO

1. Variety
2. Quality
3. Volume

In one swoop, this means to rank well in search engines you need a constant volume of a variety of backlinks of various quality (you want more higher quality backlinks for sure) over a period of time until the desired ranking is reached and stabilized.

Now that the general goal is defined… let’s talk about what type of backlinks there are for SEO.

Here are 4 “grades” of backlinks for SEO to consider:

1. “Crappy/Sh*tty” backlinks (e.g. links from PR 0 sites of any sort… blog comments… social bookmarks)

2. “So-so/Meh” backlinks (e.g. PR1+ links from forum profiles, etc.)

3. “Good/Aight” backlinks (e.g. PR1+ links from article directories)

4. “Great/Authority” backlinks (e.g. PR3+ .EDU/.GOV links, Hubpages links)

I can go on and on about other links like social bookmarking and so forth…

But let’s just focus on the more “proven” ones

Keep in mind that SEO is not an exact science.

The video above (which I suggest you watch if you haven’t already) about how to properly use the different link types and a live example of one of my many SEO campaigns (never shared this before until now) and how the different types of links work the real world.

The inspiration came to me after I offered services, as a coin of appreciation to my newsletter subscribers, pretty much at my cost to have my company’s marketing team build backlinks for SEO for the subscribers only.

My inbox was immediately flooded with orders and requests to explain what the different links are.

Hopefully this video and article/report can help ease some of that frustration, and I absolutely recommend that you invest some money to get the pros to build backlinks for SEO for you.

It’ll keep your sanity.

Trust me!

If you want to “rent” my SEO team to do some work for you at an insanely low rate comparing to what SEO companies will charge you… (think $27 instead of $119) right now is the time.

Click here to see our current backlinks for SEO services on my marketing company site (pardon its look. the site is new.)

We’re going to shut down the services next week to re-evaluate whether this is a feasible and sustainable idea for me to offer my subscribers some extra value without decreasing my team’s productivity.

(By the way, this is not some kind of scarcity tactic on our part but if you think it is… kindly get out of my website and unsubscribe from ALL of my lists… NOW.)

Let’s go build some backlinks for SEO!
