This week's "system" is using instant messenger. The king of this system, hands down, is Max Steingart. He has produced some great products that will teach you everything you need to know about using this system, with great success, to make money online.
I purchased one of Max's programs a few years ago, and I know his techniques have changed a little bit over time, so I will be able to give you the basics of this system. If it is something that speaks to you go ahead and check out Max's website and the products he has to offer.
Today I'm going to give a basic overview of the system and my next post will go a little more into detail for each of the steps.
This is a really simple system ~ and other than buying a product that might help you be more successful in using the system it won't cost you a dime.
All you will need is an instant messenger service ~ heaven knows there are tons of them now. In fact many of the social communities have their own instant messenging ~ like myspace. You can use a general service like yahoo, ICQ or AIM messenger or you can go with a community messenger like the one at myspace. I used this method using yahoo messenger, if I was doing it now I think I would focus on myspace. People are already there to be social. I think you would have a better chance of starting a conversation, and you can get a lot of information about the person before approaching them before approaching them, on myspace than you might just instant messaging anyone in the world.
Now that you've decided on a messaging service you will need to set up an account for yourself, including filling out your profile so people will know who you are.
Next you will search for people to start a conversation with. You can do this by searching through the messenger's (or myspace) database of users. Search on words or general ideas that interest you and are relevant to your business or product.
For example if you are marketing an Entertain Your Toddler ebook you will want to look for moms of toddlers to contact. This should be easy enough to do if you use keywords. If you are looking for someone to join your network marketing company you will want to look for people who have a problem your product may solve ~ or someone looking to make money from home.
Next you want to instant message the person and strike up a conversation. Really ~ the point of this system is the CONVERSATION, so talk to the person. As the conversation progresses, if you are looking for people to join your business, you will want to at some point ask them what they do ~ which will lead them to ask you what you do. You will then have the opportunity to say something that will make them want to ask more about that. If you are trying to talk to them about a product you will want to converse with them about the topic so you can offer the solution ~ your product.
Then all you have to do is wash, rinse, repeat. Continue finding more people to talk to and continue having these conversations.
Like I said it's a pretty simple process, however, there are some things you can do to increase your level of success. I will be discussing those specifics in my next post.
Until next time ~
