Published Author? 5 Reasons You Must Have a Website For Your Book

Written by admin on October 27, 2011

If you have a message, invested the time and effort in writing it down, gone through the pains of finding the right publisher and having it published, then you deserve to have a platform that will help you to get your message out to a world-wide audience.

Do you have a website that is dedicated to your book? Do you have an online presence that you’d like to share your message with? Do you have any online presence?

If the answer is no, then this is even more pertinent to you. In this day and age, a website is a must if you’re a published author.

1. Visibility – If you’ve been spreading the word about publishing your book to family and friends, that’s finite. It’s also a very slow way of creating a business and the old way of getting your message out there. With a website for your book, people can find you no matter where they are in the world and you will put a great foot forward.

2. Credibility – Having a website is your online storefront. If you meet someone and you don’t have a website to send them to, you may have lost someone forever. But if you have a website to tell your story or to put on a business card, you are instantly seen as someone who is taking the book business seriously.

3. Authority - Having a great looking website also builds your authority in your industry. Instead of having a book that can only be found under the millions of other books on Amazon, you will stand out from the crowd and can build the authority. Because we’re in the information age where consumers are more educated than ever in history, people need to be able to find out more about you. A website gives you a platform for your voice because ultimately, without you personally networking, your book cannot speak for itself.

4. Leverage - This is where “making money while you sleep” can literally come true for you. Because you’ll have a worldwide audience, you can be getting orders from customers halfway around the world while you’re sleeping. There is no leverage like a website to share your message worldwide 24/7.

5. Business - Being a published author is a huge feat. It puts you in a different league. Building a business around your book will do that even more and will have the potential of touching even more lives. Isn’t that one of the reasons

you wrote your book in the first place? Having a website for your book is an absolute must when it comes to building a business with your book as the platform or part of the platform.

QR codes hit Boise Real Estate

Written by admin on August 2, 2011

While QR codes have been around for a while, they are just starting to catch like wildfire. These 2D codes hold data from mobile websites, to directions, to business card information, to pictures. Whatever you want the QR code to redirect to, it will. And what an amazing piece of technology it is.

Recently, we created this QR code for a Real Estate agent. Try it out. Look where it takes you!

The best way to use the QR code is to teach someone how to use it. Simply point your smart phone and it will scan the QR code for you, then redirect you. Simple, easy, smart.

Boise, ID is a great place to unroll this because most people have smart phones.

Statistically, over 50% of Americans have smartphones and growing. Whereas a few years ago it was expensive and exclusive to get a phone that you can touch and interact with on a web and user level, this technology is readily available to the masses thanks to major phone carriers rolling them out.

Where does that leave the local real estate agent or business owner? Left to try and catch up. Interested in getting a QR code system that works for your business?

Contact us and we’ll be happy to help you out.

The birth of Magnetic Wealth Marketing and Search Engine Domination…

Written by admin on March 18, 2010

Back in 2005, I was looking for a way to drive more traffic to a website I had for a network marketing business. Don’t get me wrong, I have no issues with the industry, but it does not do a great job of teaching entrepreneurs how to market effectively.

I tried everything from email marketing to ad words to banner ads to stuffing business cards in magazines! And while some of that stuff had okay results, I was not after ‘okay’. I’m only interested in top-shelf, high-performing marketing strategies.

Three years later after sharpening my entrepreneurial saw, SEO marketing opened a new door for me, because for the first time I not only learned how traffic generations works, I learned WHY it works.

Here is the interesting part: most of what I know, I learned from:
1.) Studying and
2.) Doing
…mostly in that order and then doing it over and over again…

I know this is not very sexy, but the truth is there is no “magic bullet” to marketing. It takes hard work, focus and dedication to the craft to understand it.

Five years, several of tens of thousand of dollars, and countless hours of trial and error later, I am happy that I have built a skill set that not only fuels my business, but allows me to help others as well while starting to realize the lifestyle I’ve always envisioned.

So, how can you do the same thing? First, start by getting a good grasp for the big picture of SEO marketing. Simply jumping in and cranking out articles, blog posts, videos will be futile if you don’t understand the basics. Second, actually take ACTION. Too many marketers (myself included!) wait too long to get moving because of the “analysis paralysis” affliction.

It is one thing to get the big picture and have a good foundation of knowledge first, and a complete other issue if you don’t take action on the knowledge you worked hard to acquire.

My hope is that, whether you are interested in SEO marketing or simply having more time and money to pursue the things you love in life, INVEST YOUR TIME in learning all you can.

Sharing marketing success,
Mia
