What is a successful online marketing and business strategy that proves itself consistently?


The number one method for reliable and consistent daily income and business growth is email marketing.

It has proven itself to be more successful, in the long term, than paid traffic, running courses, doing CPA offers, and all the other many strategies you can use. 

The strategy is simple:


1. Grow your email list.

2. Send relevant offers as an affiliate every day.


Note: Affiliate marketing is a way of making money on the internet without making your own products, building websites, doing customer support, and having the great start-up costs of most businesses.


What is the simplest way to get started on the internet?


The right way to do email marketing, step by step:


This is the simplest way to get started on the internet.


1. You have to find a money-making niche. It can be something you are interested in or have skills in but it must be money-making. 

A fast way to check this out is to go to Clickbank and look at the gravatar scores of products within niches. It must be at least 30. It must have lots of products and affiliates too as that shows an active niche.


Niches- the most successful money-making niches are health, wealth, and relationships.

All the best converting offers are basically helping people improve their health or grow their wealth or build stronger relationships. 


2. Build an email newsletter around that niche.  This gets people to get to know you and learn from your newsletter.

This is better than throwing out links on the internet to people who don't know you.

You get to build a tribe or community of like interests. 


3. Create a Landing page that gets people to join your email list, usually in exchange for a free book or some form of valuable content.  If you are an affiliate, the vendor will give you some freebies to help you get your email list. 


My email provider also has landing pages I use or modify for my products. 

 I am an affiliate for them and I am very happy with their deliverability, innovations, and service. Check them out on my post which describes their service and platform here


Note that with each email only a small number of people may buy but maybe they were too busy at that time or needed more information or it was not quite right for them. 


So that's why you need to offer various products in that niche to them. 


When you invite people to an email list, you have multiple opportunities to offer them products that may interest them. Unlike taking them to a sales page where you may lose them forever. 


Being on an email list gives your subscribers an opportunity to ask questions about the product you are promoting.


You have an opportunity to give them a second chance to check out your offers or send other offers of interest to them. 


4.  Send emails daily, explaining the features and benefits of the products you are promoting.

Or just send them a short email to tell them you have a product they may be interested in.


Some vendors will also give you email swipes to copy and paste to your email list.  I would highly recommend that you personalize these swipes and add your voice to them. 


 When I was inexperienced, I did a copy and paste but realised that it was not my voice so I went over each one to sound more like me. They are a good starting point for you to customise. 


Always be open to learning and stay focused and willing to work. 

There is no magic potion to making money on the internet.

What is a great lead generation tool?





Why I chose GetResponse as my lead generation tool

I use GetResponse as my email marketing platform, after recommendations from top affiliate marketer. Anthony Morrison.

When I started my career in online marketing, I used  MailChimp, as I was unsure of what I was doing and thought it was a good place to start.

I now know that it would be a tedious task to transfer 1,000 subscribers when I need an email platform that handles larger numbers of subscribers. 

Later, I decided on  GetResponse. 

I am also building Sales Funnels, using their templates. I'm surprising myself! 

Honestly, they have so much to offer apart from sending your emails efficiently-free courses, landing pages, sales funnels, and more!

And they are so quick to respond to your questions with their 24/7 service.

I had a query recently and they were on the line within 5 minutes. I had changed something on my landing page and I needed their expertise to fix a problem I had caused. 

Not only did they explain how to fix the problem, but they also fixed it for me. My calm came back.


GetResponse's features:


It had many new tools that I could take advantage of, and it was one of the best email automation marketing platforms recommended by a hugely successful marketer, Anthony Morrison. 

His other recommendations were ConvertKit and GVO.

 I  feel that I have chosen an innovative company.

I used to be quite nervous about email marketing but realised that my email list was my biggest asset that would not be affected by changing algorithms.

So it was important to choose an email marketing platform that would not hit the spam boxes.

I can see that GetResponse does have a high rate of deliverability as my emails are being delivered successfully, and not in spam boxes. 

I actually enjoy checking my daily statistics! 

Another great thing I love is the goal-oriented email templates. 

I am segmenting my list and I have a theme for each list, as well as using different goal-oriented templates for newsletters, or special events, etc. 


I am an affiliate and I stand to make a small commission if you subscribe. I use GetResponse and recommend its use.

What are GetResponse's innovations?

 In recent years, GetResponse has come up with groundbreaking innovations:

Responsive Email Design – They were first in the industry to introduce a design interface that automatically formats every message to fit the screens of any mobile or desktop device and any operating system.

Landing Pages – And they added a slick, new design interface to their platform that turns out high-converting landing pages in minutes.

Forms – They also integrated forms with landing pages to funnel sign-ups into email campaigns automatically.

Webinars - Their latest innovation is a webinar platform, now an integrated component of their PRO service option — great for demos.

And more – They’ve produced innovations in video email marketing, smartphone apps, QR codes, A/B testing, inbox preview, email timing, global view, perfect timing, and custom fields.

Just as important, they constantly update the long-time favorites:

Autoresponders – GetResponse added sophisticated timing controls and action-triggered emails and then combined it with advanced segmentation for targeted campaigns with the look and feel of one-to-one communication.

Email Creator – Likewise, they reinvented the email design interface, giving users access to hundreds of professionally designed templates, a drag-and-drop editing interface, and point-and-click tools for campaign development.

Email Analytics – And they expanded email analytics to report autoresponder performance and social media sharing. They even dovetailed it with segmentation, so users can click to create segments for finer targeting.

I guess I've become big fan of GetResponse.

 Check it out here, and you’ll discover it’s an all-inclusive platform — the only online lead-generation tool you’ll ever need.

Helping Others with Free Marketing Tips and Tools Resource Page


Follow my blog with Bloglovin

I love to help others with free marketing tips and tools.

I have compiled a page of tips and free tools that you can use online.

I can help others in reaching their goals because of the help I have had from others in the online community. I will name three marketers who are wonderful examples of this tradition- Fred Lam (Facebook/Shopify marketer extraordinaire), Anthony Morrison, and Marian (Marian's IM Tips).

The value they give to others with their free tips is nothing short of amazing. At the beginning of one's journey, either blogging or working online in marketing, you simply don't know enough to be of great service to others and give a load of freebies.

So you need time to follow the influencers ie. after you have worked out who the influencers are! You get good advice- and you get bad advice- and sometimes you just get overwhelmed with offers and advice.

The white noise is deafening so you have to start culling your engagement.  Personally, I hate it when I sign up with someone to get something that looks like a good offer and I get barraged with their affiliate offers in their next email.

Please, let me get to know you first before we get married. I do understand that we have to make a living so you will present me with affiliate offers but date me first. So now that I have more 'kudos' about working online as a blogger and as a marketer, I am now sharing some tips and tools with you.

They are freebies that I have found useful or have developed myself for you to use. They are free to use. You can bookmark the page so it is easy for you to find! As a blogger, I initially blogged about Health and Wellness but decided to blog about marketing as I thought it was a good way for me to grow my knowledge about online marketing strategies. I find that some aspects of Health and Wellness are vital to bloggers and marketers, namely motivation, self-care, thankfulness or gratitude (attitude) and mindset.

If you don't pay attention to these factors, it reflects in your health and success in your work online.

So I find the blend of the two themes for my blogs to have been beneficial to me. For those of you who would like to have more tips and tools, I have so much to offer you. Often, we tend to get in a cycle of better-known strategies that everyone uses, and it is good to know other strategies that the influencers use, as well. If you do want more strategies, tips and tools, you have the opportunity when you visit this page to get them!

Find the free tips and tools at this page.

Pinterest Tips-How to grow your following successfully without automation







I decided   to write a short post on Pinterest Tips-How to grow your following successfully without  automation for two reasons:

1. It works and you should always be ready to add another string to your bow. New or different strategies in blogging or online marketing are always valuable.

Pinterest also rewards manual pinning by putting more of your pins in the feed.

2. There are times when 'life happens' in unexpected ways and we need to look for different strategies. The accumulation of monthly fees, especially if something unexpected happens, is tough for some people. 

The monthly fees add up and some people need to make choices and a brief (or longer) stint away from automation tools may be necessary.  

It can also help newbies understand the power they have sharing other people's posts, outside automation tools, when working online.  


Your Pinterest Tips


It's difficult to pin  50-100  pins a day, spaced out at optimum times. if you are working out of the home, so you can:

1. Go into your home feed and pin from your feed throughout the day. You only need to pin 2 or 3 (as many times as you can afford timewise) times a day to notice your followers going up on a daily basis, at a good rate.

I pin about 5 pins each time, sometimes less and sometimes more. But I always get a good result with followers the next day.

Make sure that some of these pins are not only from your followers but in your niche. 

This is super important as you want to introduce new followers and not just get pinned by your followers.

Click on a pin that is from your niche and that will take the pin onto a new page and out of your feed. 

You can follow up by checking out who pinned the pin or find the origin of the pin next to the pin, at the top right. 

Go to the profile of that person and choose to follow all or some boards. Pin one of their pins from a board, as well.

You will see what keyword suggestions come up next to their boards if they do not have a business account yet, and then make a better decision as to whether you would like them as a follower.

You would also get some 'love' if you pin others' pins to your group boards!

I usually have quite a few daily pins on Tailwind (75-100) and, believe me, if you're stuck and can't fund the automation, this method requires fewer pins to be pinned but will get you followers.

People like variety in their feed and they like to be pinned also!

2. Go into Tailwind.  

If you have had an account as you can still use Tailwind Tribes to find good pins in your niche.

 You will not be able to put them into a queue but you can click on the url at the bottom of the pin.


See if you like the pin, then share it from their website to Pinterest. Then send them a note on Tailwind Tribes to tell them you shared their pin.

Hopefully, they will go into your pin feed on Tailwind Tribes and share one of your pins.

One thing I always do is send a 'thank you' to anyone who shares one of my pins from Tailwind Tribes and then I reciprocate. 

People will follow up with you down the track.



3. You can find lots of great tweets on Twitter so you can share these, as well, if they have a suitable Pinterest-sized image. 

4. If you are in other bloggers' groups, e.g. Facebook, share their posts, if they have a Pinterest pin. Or you could also share your pin here.

The power of pinning quality pins from other people will show in your follower rate. 

It is noticeable daily and a great reward for sharing from the Pinterest community.

Tailwind is great and has its purpose but it must be teamed with manual pinning also, for maximum effectiveness. 

Pinterest is actually rewarding you for visiting your Home Feed and pinning from there.

Pinterest wants you to actually visit their site, not just automate your pins by queuing them on Tailwind.

When I first started blogging, the more experienced bloggers advocated the 80:20 rule to get followers-80 pins that belong to others in your niche, and 20 of your pins. 

This makes sense as you have a greater chance of getting your pin in front of their followers, not just your own followers. 

So don't be discouraged if you have come upon 'tight financial times'- you can still move ahead on Pinterest!
