Remember to Moderate Comments

18. August 2008

4 Comments

I have just a couple of sites that I keep watch on, but I find that someone with moderator control needs to be regularly checking.   At the TaxLoopholes First Class Lounge Forum, largely because it’s a subscription based model, there isn’t that much moderation needed.  We don’t get hit with the spammers.  I did have [...]

Conversion Stats Not Good

15. August 2008

5 Comments

Well, out of the box, my site, www. HighTouchSystem .com is getting decent visits, but lousy conversion. We might have launched too early.  The sign up process is through a secure server, but the little lock symbol that we’re used to seeing only appears when you actually sign up.  Until then, it doesn’t look like it’s [...]

I was exchanging emails yesterday with RobF, an active contributor at the TaxLoopholes.com First Class Lounge forum.  Rob is a copy writer (the guys who write sales letters and get paid $10,000+/letter) who turned into an affiliate marketer.  He constantly wows us over at the forum with all the knowledge he has about buying traffic [...]

Driving Traffic

You’ve built it. You’ve figured out your model.  You have drip marketing in place.  You understand your sales model.   Now, will they come?  That’s where I am with HighTouchSystem right now.  My old standby site, TaxLoopholes, is careworn and needs a lift.  I’ll be working on that, as well as doing some change [...]

Launching Two Sites at Once is Hard

My husband Richard is a semi-reformed microelectronic engineer.  He has a PhD in ceramics and worked with semi-conductors.  (Little pun there)  Around here we have a saying “Shoot the engineer and ship the product” That’s because some engineers (like my husband, who I adore) will keep tweaking until the day they die.  They are never finished. [...]

New Website, Ground-breaking Concept

It’s not quite ready, but I can’t help myself from talking about the project that Jorge and I have been working on for a few months now.  First a little history: My Journey to a Million Dollars has gotten side-tracked and re-focussed a half dozen times.  Nine months ago I had a significant part of my [...]

Strategies for Building My New Business

5. August 2008

1 Comment

There are a couple of us through Business to Investment that have signed up at SendOutCards.   I’m using it as a very effective way to encourage referrals through my business.  Plus, it’s a way to make money when you sign others up. We’re all using different strategies to build the business.  I’ve always like a [...]

Technology Keeps Getting Cheaper

I spent today going through accounting records.  Now, isn’t that everybody’s dream Sunday?  I found something pretty interesting though.  Wow!  Have my costs gone down. In fact, I’m sure I had been overpaying for a few years more than I should have.  In March 2007, I bought my partner out of TaxLoopholes and some other ventures [...]

Do More of What Works and Less of What Doesn’t

2. August 2008

I am a bit of a stats junkie.  I love trying something and see what happens.  I’ve been dancing around the whole MLM concept and when a friend’s income suddenly popped a few months ago, I finally got off the fence and jumped in. The thing I like about this particular opportunity is even if you [...]

Simpler Life

I’m going to start off this post with telling you what my family did last night.  Hang in there, I think it will all make sense in the end.   We’re spending more time in San Diego these days.  We have a place that’s a half block from a secluded beach.  Only the neighbors seem to [...]
