We broke-up the eNewsletter into 3 simple sections – so that it’s not overwhelming to the reader. The first section is a personal note from Chrissy, the second portion is an article on planning your vacation – in other words the article that is interesting and informative – and the third section is her call to action in which she asks her readers to use her website to book their next travel. She had over 20% click the link – all because the entire eNewsletter was focused and not overwhelming and ended with a call to action. http://blazeinteractive.com/clients/chrissy/newsletter/jun08_02.html

Hello Coaches and Entrepreneurs! Last Thursday I had the great opportunity to teach a 3-hour class to the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) in Orange County! We discussed how to create a FAPulous website – a website that is promotes strongly what you want to promote, which:

-Makes you more money
-Gets you more eNewsltter sign-ups
-Gets you more Event sign-ups
-and more!

After the class, I received a number of requests to have it again – and so I’m holding the next 1 hour FAPulous class Friday, July 11th at 10am.

Our class today was very exciting because we talked about how coaches can utilize PayPal to side-step the awkward “The check’s in the mail” syndrome. We are, of course, talking about Credit Card payments – and in the below audio I show you how easy it is to use PayPal to create “Buy Now” buttons, receive recurring and subscription payments, create paypal invoices – as well as how to credit accounts when you accidentally charge someone.

Just a quick reminder that our templates are still available until today at a $200 discount on customization. If you wish to take advantage of this one-time offer please buy your template today, April 18^th, at indramarketing.com and click on “Template Design”.

Also, If you enjoy these free teleclasses, be a good sport and tell me: call (214) 615-6505 ext 9053 and leave a testimonial for this class. I would really appreciate it.

I am so excited about my up-coming Facebook class next week!

-Continue the connection you have after a networking meeting
-Easily let people know of up coming classes and teleclasses

If you’re a life or business coach and you really want to become active in the Internet Marketing world, then you need a blog. A blog (like the one you’re reading now) can help you with search engine optimization, provide a personal touch to your company, and it’s flexible: add video, audio, articles, photos, press releases, and so much more! This video will explain how to get started – simply creating your first blog through www.blogger.com. Why www.blogger.com – well, I think it’s easier to use than WordPress or Typepad or any other blogging software that I’ve found so far – and if your a coach that doesn’t feel too tech savy – than Blogger is for you. So, get out their coaches – and start marketing your business with a blog!
