Marketing With Alex 2.0 – Progress Report
August 4th, 2009
Over the last five days, I have been very busy working on the Blog Of The Day Awards. I am really enjoying it and my fellow students seem to like the idea.
The idea grew in response to a task set by my mentor, Alex Jeffreys, as part of his Marketing With Alex 2.0 internet marketing coaching programme.
But I have been working on other parts of the syllabus too. For example, I have now viewed the recorded video session that Alex had with Maria Andros, “The Video Marketing Queen”. Wow ! I’d figured for a long time that video is the way to go, but if there was ever any doubt in my mind about its effectiveness, she has dispelled that. What she is doing is amazing !
I have also been looking at ideas for generating reports that can be used in “giveaways”. For example, I have had a resale rights product “on the shelf” for quite a while and just before starting in on Alex’s coaching, I was getting a sale page together for that. So I thought that it might be worth writing a short report to act as a lead magnet for this product. But first, I wanted to know whether my sales page was up to scratch.
So I took advantage of the fact that we had our second brainstorming session with Alex last night. He gave me a critique of the web site I’d roughed out, but more importantly (and without realising it), he gave me a better idea for a lead magnet ! I shall get working on that later today, after I have made the next Blog Of The Day Award.
After that, I have a number of other things to move on. For example, I need to think some more about video because there’s also Alex’s video competition. And then later in the week, we have our next session on social media traffic generation. It’s all go !
