Have you noticed corporate entities touting Twitter? Or have you become a Facebook fan of your favorite athlete or celebrity? In this chunk of content from the desk of Jenard L. Stokes, you’ll see why they’re ‘married ‘ and we look to get you ‘engaged ‘ today.
See we live in what’s called a Web 2.0 world. Web 2.0 is still an underrated strategy or concept that many online business owners have yet to include as a marketing tactic. Statistics state that those who have embraced and adopted social marketing has experienced significant increase in sales. What are you waiting on?

Here are 5 Vital Reasons to lock arms and unite Social Marketing with your online business.

1. Social Media gets you the information you need

Social marketing is a very popular and effective way of getting the vital information you need to grow your business. The information learned can be essential in regards to the success of your business. Netscape, Delicious, Digg are rapidly growing and getting rave reviews from people across the world because people now have the opportunity to stay up-to-date with the latest happenings in their area of interest. Are you measuring your content’s effectiveness? Try posting a chunk of your content into Digg or Netscape. Owning a blog and submitting the information to pertinent social marketing directories is an efficient method for attracting and retaining customers or clients.

2. Social marketing is an easy and affordable way of guiding & maintaining traffic

Unlike traditional marketing, social media marketing does not require a huge marketing staff or tons of money. For example, it is very simple to get a Facebook page. It only takes a few minutes to connect with friends who have the same interest as you.

From there, all you need to do is commit to building more relationships and they will begin to become attracted to your knowledge and experience. A consistent presence on Facebook will generate massive customers, clients, and an increase in sales.

3. Social Marketing assist you to develop a relationships with buying customers

Developing meaningful relationships with customers and clients is crucial to your success as a business owner. Before the social marketing boom, most businesses that were being ran online had no real clue on how to connect with their customers to prove their qualifications or to do research on a particular market.

Another example would be a blog. Consistently updating content gives an online business the opportunity to earn trust with their customer and increasing the chances of it not being a one time sale. A blog is vital to have in your social marketing army as well.

4. Social marketing is about the type of traffic, not how much traffic

Getting a mass of traffic to your site is irrelevant if nobody stays around long enough to browse, buy, or download anything. Social media marketing attracts laser-targeted traffic, gives potential customers and clients the chance to interact with the seller with questions or preferences. Moreover, social marketing allows buyers to interact with a close-knit community that is all relative to gaining wisdom and understanding.

5. Search Engines Are Married to Social Marketing

This should’ve been # 1…. Google, Yahoo, Bing, all adore the components that make-up social media marketing. When you blog or write around certain keyword-rich subjects you attract the so called ‘eye of the spider’, which is always looking out for new, fresh, relevant and quality content.

Social media marketing is only the beginning of a long-lasting relationship. So why not marry social marketing? Be courageous to link up and explode your business with massive modern marketing methods.

Forget wondering and wishing, and learn how to build your business like the Top Producers!

Ardyss Scam Is Worth 500K?

From The Desk of Jenard L. Stokes, Master Marketing Mentor
***Attention All Ardyss 'Platinums' - Learn How to 'INSTANTLY' Generate Traffic And Convert It Into PowerPacks Using Modern MLM Mastery Success Secrets

Ardyss International is a new company headquartered out of Las Vegas, Nevada. Las Vegas has some of the most lucrative businesses in the world. Ardyss International is one of them. Mexico, is where the Ardyss empire was originally created. This is quite important based on Ardyss deceiving thousands into believing their future will PowerStart based on a $500k royalty.

Ardyss is pulling your leg?...

It’s very clever how Ardyss just suddenly switched the comp plan again. I say again because distributors in Ardyss don’t have a clue about how the Platinums became Platinums. Let me ask you this…If I told you to order something and you knew you were going to receive double the points for it, would that get the blood pumping in your veins? Double-points quickly, catapulted several of the Platinum Presidents in Ardyss International. Mind you, I have nothing to do with this company, I have friends who do very well each month in Ardyss International. I just don’t like the fact that people have not shared their ‘testimonies’ with you.

In addition to the double-points, Ardyss International did a bait and switch marketing tactic. The bait was the $60k Matching bonus withinin the PowerStart Program. And the switch increased to to a half-million dollars Matching Bonus. WHAT?? See the biggest downside was that the PowerStart program was already viewed as ‘Thin Air Money’ to many. What do I mean by ‘Thin Air Money’? I mean that 0.07% of the people who enrolled did not meet the $60,000 PowerStart Max at all. Yes, not even 1% of the distributors who ever enrolled maxed out the old version of this particular bonus structure. Stay with me as I bring this train to a station. See ‘Thin Air Money’ kills the legitimate focus of an Ardyss Distributor with realistic goals. MLM is discredited because of the tactics companies like Ardyss implement and the reps are totally unaware.

Keep it real now, if there is only a handful of people who acheived Platinum, what sense does it make to put the emphasis on $500k. Say for instance no one was buying gold. Do you think they can begin to raise the price on gold if no-one is buying gold? Remember gas prices suddenly went up? (”Govn’t think I’m crazy”) Basically, I feel Ardyss is playing on the intelligence of the body, the masses, the majority within the company, just as I feel those gas prices rise when ‘clever’ people are at the helm.

At the end of the day you need people on Auto-Ship to create a long-term residual income. Ask yourself this. “How many people do I need in my downline on monthly AUTOSHIP to max out the PowerStart program?” It is very much so possible for you, only if you look to travel all over the country to host a 53 minute showcase and keep people motivated to stay on their monthly mail packages. Or would you rather learn some key principles to driving massive, laser-targeted, traffic to produce 3-5 PowerPacks a week on auto-pilot? Position yourself using Modern MLM Success Secrets within Ardyss and you’ll explode your PowerStart potential.

I’ve spoken with several leaders within Ardyss each dealing with the same concerns – RETENTION. They do not have a clue as to why there are so many zeros in their back office. And for those who aren’t aware (90% of Ardyss distributors don’t have a clue) that Retention is the ability to keep in possession or in use. Simply put in Network Marketing terms retention – People Quitting.

Of course, they all make their validreasons for leaving and moving on to the next deal or even yelling out admontly that “I’ll never do MLM again”. But the fact is, majority of the distributors in Ardyss International are not retained due to Auto-Ship. Do you suffer from downline deletion? If you want to create a powerful organization in Ardyss International or any MLM you’ll need to understand the principles of a funded proposal. I’ll provide a visual for you later, but for now here are some key hurdles that you’ll need to overcome to never worry about the swiftly debited hundredsand the timely shipped box(s) that are delivered each and every month to your doorstep.

How is Ardyss working for you?

Like I said before, Ardyss International is a phenomenal company that has people producing large quanities of cash. How is it working for you? If it is working great for you continue doing what you are doing until the rubber meets the road and your people fall flat on their face due to lack of leadership because you now have the vital juice to fuel their business . On the other hand, if you are struggling, wishing and wondering when you’re gonna receive your MLM breakthrough in Ardyss make sure you and your organization all have “Complimentary Auto-Ship”.

"What is this 'Funded Proposal Thang...?"

A funded proposal is simply letting your prospects pay for your expenses. Sounds funny? Is it possible? Of course it is possible becasue I generate all of my monthly business expenses using a funded proposal. It definitly works and my fiancee LOVES it. Because I went for years in a company paying on time every month with little reture on what I invested. So let’s take a look now at how a funded proposal solves two major challenges faced by Ardyss Distributors:

#1. Not enought money - In order to continue so they terminate their business all of a sudden.

#2. Not enough prospects - to share the "PowerStart' program with because their warm market hates MLM (not distributors fault).

Are you starting to see the power of a funded proposal? Now let’s delve into the purpose of a funded propsal. Marketing is very underrated in network marketing, but using this one strategy can really get your juices flowing for consideration of growing your Ardyss business online. Two main Purposes a ‘Funded Proposal” serves are as follows:

#1. You will be gathering targeted motivated leads that have raised their hand and said "I'm interested in what you have!' and they have further qualified themselves by pulling out their credit card a BUYING something from you.

#2. You make immediate income that pays for your advertising, expenses, etc (depending on how much you make)

Always remember, you're not in Ardyss, you're in business.

If you look to make your Ardyss Auto-Ship Complimentary and you are serious about prospering in your Ardyss business, I’ll assist you in accomplishing your goals and dreams. So now FINALLY you’ll be able to get your hands out of your head and be the leader you were born to be.

Back To Our Ardyss International Review:

 

Ardyss has been one of the fastest growing business opportunities in the 21st century – marketing ‘healthy and wellness’ coupled with a reshaping line and the PowerStart bonus structure.  Is Ardyss International a long term opportunity – or just a fad?  Should you join? These are some of the questions that I’m going to discuss in this Ardyss Review.


Ok, so my Mom, my Uncle, and my best friend, have all Informed of EXACTLY what Ardyss is about?

Ardyss International is a Multi Level Marketing company that started in August of 2008 marketing ‘healthy’ lifestyle- garments and nutrition mostly. Rather than taking any of the traditional approaches to MLM, they modeled their growth off of a very lucrative bonus structure called 'The PowerStart Program'. Essentially, the powerstart program allows you to be paid on the efforts of people who aren’t involved in your organization at all.

Ardyss Review, Continued...


Honestly, Ardyss International is a unique animal.  There really isn’t anything quite like it (and no, I’m not involved – more on that later).


When I first ran into Ardyss, it was because an old fella I did Real Estate with simply gave me a call. During the call, he was excited out of his mind about a ‘new opportunity’ that was 'Recession Proof’...

He told me ‘all you have to do is get twelve people, that’s it, and you’re rich’.  Now, you have to understand, having multiple websites that DOMINATE the search engines, I get people calling me all the time offering me ‘the latest great deal’ or ‘this amazing product’ and quite frankly, it's not cool anymore.  So I ignored the Ardyss Opportunity because I know from experience that even if you have a ‘PowerStart Program’ and a ‘exciting new insurance campaign’ you need to sponsor more than 12 people unless you are one lucky person- Dorothy Cook.

However, I’ve recently taken a look into Ardyss again, because they’ve made some major changes.  I’m still not clear on the direction of the company with Mike Potillo stepping down from the helm - will they be around for long? Or will they be here for years to come?  While the future is always uncertain, there are some positives, as well as some drawbacks to this business model.


Ardyss has three main key strengths that give it super leverage in the world of Network Marketing.  I’m going to cover these first, from the perspective of someone who’s not involved.  They are:


1.  The STRONGEST selling point in the Ardyss business model, by far, is the powerstart bonus.  This 100% matching bonus in the compensation plan has begun to be copied by a few reputable MLM's in the industry, and has a chance of helping to create some of the biggest checks in Network Marketing history.  The idea of profiting 100% of off someone else efforts is intriguing and catches the imagination.  If I was doing Ardyss – I would paint this as the #1 selling point.


2.  Health and Wellness will be a key component in the industry of network marketing for years to come.  Well, they may not be in the industry forever – but as of 2010, health and wellness is  ever-evolving and more and more people are becoming consumers of these products every year.  In fact, the sales of 'juices' alone are predicted to jump from $5 billion in 2009 all the way to $11 billion in 2011.  Being involved in a growth industry is one of the most important factors to choosing an MLM opportunity – especially when you’re just getting started.


3.  Ardyss International has made the commitment to make it part of their corporate vision to provide an Affordable health care plan that meets personal and wellness needs of their distributors. The Ardyss Health Care Program looks to Provide affordable health care for Ardyss Distributors with the ultimate goal of healthy, thriving families and having a better standard of living. Although I wouldn’t personally use their service, it is a FANTASTIC addition and is likely to generate growth.


So there you have it.  So why didn't 'YOU' get a PowerPack?  Awesome company huh?


Of course, it is an  awesome company.  However, the first question I always ask myself when looking at an opportunity is: ‘If I wasn’t involved with this business, would I use this product or service anyways?’  For me, the answer is simply no.  Although I see the bodyshapers and nutrition line as an attractive market – I don’t personally wear them, nor do I enjoy the products.


Now should that stop you from joining?  Absolutely not.  The products are sound – and it is my own personal preference.  However, I do feel that you should ask yourself the same question.  Would you spend $140 a month, or even $50 on Ardyss products if you weren’t involved in the business opportunity?


What I dislike is when people get signed up just for the money, and that’s what gives MLM a bad reputation.  However, if you truly have a passion for Ardyss – you should absolutely find a good sponsor and join right away.  Just don't allow the allure of 'hype' to be your reason for getting started - because when the initial excitement wears off, you're going to need a strong belief and vision to keep building your business.


Also, while the reshaping and nutrition market is certainly growing today, there is also a strong possibility that it is a short lived fad that will drop off in 5 or 10 years.  If that’s the case, Ardyss will eventually have to adapt it’s products or fall apart.  But I’m no prophet – what do you think?  Even if it does – maybe you could make some money over the short term.


The final word of advice I have about Ardyss is this – make sure if you decide to get involved to learn how to market your business in a way that is attractive, fun, and will work long term for you.  When I was approached about Ardyss, it was from someone who used to do business with me.  He called me up, excited out of his mind, telling me about how much he has made with this new ‘bonus structure’. I wanted to hang up the phone.  Learn how to position yourself as a leader and ATTRACT people to you – and you’ll never have to hassle your friends, family, and relatives again. 

Quite frankly, if you learn how to master Attracting people in your business, it won’t matter if you join Ardyss International or if you find a different company.  YOU will succeed no matter where you go.  And the good thing is – you can write your own check.

It’s my sincere hope that this helped you understand Ardyss a little bit better.  If you want to learn how you can sponsor 10-25 reps into Ardyss International or any other MLM business you choose, fill in your name, email, and phone number into the form below.  On the next page, I have a marketing training that is 50 minutes long - and I'm going to give it to you for free.  Enjoy:
