Random Empower Network Questions

by Brad Campbell in Network Marketing

So I was doing my usual morning routine of checking out yesterday’s blog traffic…
… and I noticed a bunch of random questions (aka search terms) people had used to find my blog.
Many of ‘em, however, I hadn’t actually answered directly.
The lesson within the lesson is this: cover your topic like a blanket, and you’ll be viewed as the most relevant resource for your prospects.
(And thus, Google will award you with top rankings, even if you haven’t discussed those exact keywords.)
With that said, here are the random Empower Network questions “my blog” received, along with my official answers…

Empower Network success stories?

Not really a question, but I get it.
There are many.  Probably more than any other online marketing product, program, system or training that’s out there.
View them plastered all over Empower’s marketing materials.
Or, see how you can be the next one by following along live with this 2013 case study.

What are easy steps for building a Empower Network blog?

Well, since I think the safest play is to build your own niche Empower Network blog and use it solely (or in addition to) your actual Empower Network blog, I’ve created a follow-along tutorial for doing just that.
You can see it here.

Should I promote my Empower Network blog or link?

I’m assuming they mean: is it best to send traffic to your blog or straight to the sales video or squeeze page?
If that’s the case, I’d say it depends.
If you’re paying for the traffic (solo ads, media buys, etc), I would lean towards the squeeze page.
You don’t want to spend money then have a lot of “leakage” where that traffic can get what they want without coughing up their email, at a minimum.
If it’s referral traffic, you could go either way.
There’s no real right or wrong, but it’s hard to argue against building your list.  And the most proven way to do that is by pointing traffic to your high-converting squeeze page, like this.

Is Empower Network saturated?

Okay, so I had, in fact, already answered one of these.
And this is a great question, so please see my original response for input on the whole saturation debate.

Who are the top Empower Network earners in 2013?

This list doesn’t change much, but here goes – the top 10 earners, in order:
Vick Strizheus, Tony Rush, Lawrence Tam, Charles Marshall, Chris Campbell, Tracey Walker, Jon Mroz, Aaron Rashkin, Mack Zidan, Layla Staats.
I should note, that’s all-time income, current for 2013.

Should you welcome your team members to Empower Network?

Umm, yes.
That’s the nice thing to do.  You know, “thanks for joining me… here’s how I can help you… here’s what to do next.”
I would encourage you to treat your team members as cool as possible.
There are a lot of sponsors out there, and you should feel honored that they decided to roll with you.

How to get my picture to show up in Google rankings Empower Network?

Said/asked in context, of course.
Guess I did a little better than I thought.  I’ve covered this too, under Google Authorship.

How do I see who viewed my Empower Network blog?

Who specifically?
Sorry, you’ll never know.  However, you can identify how many people, what their experience was like, how they got there, and so on.
Get the quick low-down by following this guide.
Or, for more details – if you’ve got your own self-hosted Empower Network blog – I like to use good ol’ cPanel stats.
To access, log into your hosting provider cPanel account.
For HostGator, if you scroll down and look at the lower left sidebar, you’ll see a link that says “View All Traffic”…
Click it, select the appropriate domain, and have a blast.
Stats to pay close attention to include number of unique visitors, time spent on your blog, top 25 pages viewed, links you’ve acquired from other sites, and search keyphrases.

How to get into members area Empower Network?

Yikes.  “Granny, should you really be driving?”
There’s a big blue button on the top right of every page on the Empower Network domain, that says “Log In.”
If you can’t figure it out from there, it’s time to hand over the keys.

What’s better than Empower Network 2013?

Well, since you beautifully bumped me the ball, I have no choice but to spike it over the net, right?
Now, I don’t know if this opportunity is “better” than Empower Network.
But it is different.
And it does offer a few advantages that would be appealing to a certain crowd.
It’s a top tier affiliate product in the luxury travel space, called Resorts 360.
The specific benefits it has over Empower Network are the following:
You don’t lose or pass-up any sales; you make a lot more per sale and per bonus override; you can sell the product to travel enthusiasts and thus get out of the make money online niche; it’s a lot more professional, with zero hype; you can travel luxuriously, live lavishly, for much less, and get paid big commissions in the process; they’ve been around for a long time and have an outstanding reputation.
If you’re not feeling Empower Network here in 2013, I haven’t found a better alternative.
I’m a Resorts360 member and love it.  Learn more here and here and see their compensation plan here.
Am I saying that I don’t dig Empower Network?
Absolutely not.
I love me some Empower Network too, and they have their own unique set of unparalleled advantages… which is why I’ll ride with them for life.
It’s important to have multiple streams of income and Resorts 360 is the yin to Empower’s yang.

What are Empower’s policy and procedures?

I think they go something like this:
“Don’t be a wussy.”
“Be a badass instead.”
“Just get all-in.”
“Put down the phone, pick up the checks.”
“Get to the next event.”
“Our compensation plan is pretty badass.”
“P.S. – results are not typical.”
Laugh out loud.  You gotta love the rawness of the Dave’s.  At least I do.  They keep it real and I appreciate that.
Even if they do start to sound like broken records.  Anyways, peep their actual policies here.

Empower Network top teams 2013?

You’re too nice, really.
If you keep lobbing it right over the plate for me, I’ll continue smacking it right out the park.
The questions should be singular, as in “team.”
Who has the best Empower Network team in 2013?
Brad (*raises hand*): “Eww… eww… me… me…”
Dude who asked question: “Yes?  You in the back?”
Brad: “We do.  Team Mojo.  Learn it, know it, love it.  Join us here or get outta the way.”

Can I still join Empower Network even after I canceled membership?

Yes, I don’t see why not.
Just make sure you find the right sponsor (hint, hint), approach your marketing smarter, and ensure you never have a reason to want to cancel again.

How to index my Empower Network blog content?

First and foremost, make sure your blog posts are consistent, high value, and relevant.
Without those aspects, Google could care less.
You need to give them a reason to want to come back to your blog, often, and include your content in the search results.
Remember, they reserve the right to not index shit.
Next, acquire votes.
Get links and shoutouts from other quality, topically related websites.  See this video for the how-to.
Last, do everything you can to create a fabulous experience for the end user.
Make it so they stay on your blog for a long time, view lots of pages, and interact as much as possible.
Again, those are all signals that your stuff is important.

Can you have multiple blogs with Empower Network?

Yes, and many of my team members do.
They use their actual Empower blog to promote, boost rankings, and index their own niche blog and/or to help drive traffic to their squeeze page.
Just be smart about how you’re spending your time and don’t spread yourself too thin.
If you’ve got the drive and the time, go nuts.
Personally, 90% of my effort goes into this blog, but I also have a handful of other mini-blogs and squeeze pages that I use as separate funnels to drive traffic to and capture leads with.

Can I use Empower Network to promote my MLM?

You sure can.  Lots of members do.
Their training programs are outstanding and will teach you how to promote any business, whether that’s a separate MLM opportunity, affiliate products, your own stuff or even a local brick and mortar business.
That’s one key trait that separates Empower from a lot of network marketing companies…
… who can (and WILL) terminate you if they see you using their tools and resources to promote another business opportunity.

Who is attacking Empower Network?

You mean, besides all the haters, pessimists and naysayers?
(By the way, if you don’t know what this question refers to, see this article I wrote – it’s kinda funny.)
Honestly, I have no idea.
But a guy did just comment at the bottom of that post saying he does [have an idea].
As long as you’re marketing ethically and honestly, and abiding by everyone’s terms of service, I wouldn’t worry about it.

Where can I read Empower Network blogs?

Right here, silly.
Or, simply go to EmpowerNetwork.com, click on “Blog” and read away.
You could also get your Google-on and just start finding random Empower Network affiliate blogs that way as well.

How to find the right sponsor Empower Network?

I’d say this: find someone who’s good at what you want to get good at.
If that’s blogging and free traffic generation, that’s probably me.  If that’s Facebook ads, that’s someone else.  If that’s offline ads in magazines, that’s probably Chuck Marshall.
Know what I’m saying?
Every leader has their own unique set of strengths and weaknesses.
Then, you also gotta consider personality types, coaching style, availability, outlook and so on.
Some sponsors won’t give you the time of day; others take personal calls 24/7…
To see if I’m the guy for the job, learn more about me here.

What does Google think of Empower?

Who cares?
Kidding.  Well, sort of.
I do and I don’t.
Look, the ‘old me’ did care.  Way too much.  My online business way way too dependent on ranking high in Google.
The newer, smarter me isn’t so concerned.
While Google does have more control than I’d like to admit, in terms of what they’ll allow on their Adwords ads and YouTube platforms…
… the lesson here is that you can’t build a real business that hinges entirely on a company that could care less about you.
Diversity is key.
Do I plan parts of my blogging and other marketing activities around Google?  Sure do, because their traffic rocks.
But, I still realize that they’re only once source.
I take action to ensure I’m not keeping all my eggs in just the Google basket.
So yeah, I’ll play by their rules and cater to their preferences, but if Google banned me tomorrow, I’d make like Destiny’s Child and be a SURVIVOR…
Didn’t see that one coming, did you?

Can I just skip to the Masters Course and bypass the others?

Sure, if you’re just wanting the education, why not?
It’s an amazing course, although it should be for the $3,500 price tag.
However, if you’re planning on promoting Empower Network, that’s a terrible idea, as almost everyone buys the lower-priced products and almost nobody buys the Masters Course (sadly).

How to make money with Empower Network?

I’ve covered this a couple of times, thank you very much.
Go me.
See this post and this one as well, to learn my empowered money-making “secrets.”

Empower Network product prices?

I see your question and raise you prices plus reviews.
See my 2013 Empower Network products reviewed post over here.

How much money does Empower Network pay per referral?

They pay 100% commissions on each and every product, except for the Masters Course, which pays you $3,000 out of the full $3,500.
Still not too shabby, right?
But, it’s important you understand their full compensation plan, as some sales are passed-up to your sponsor.
You can view this video for the full overview.

I don’t know how to blog – will I succeed with Empower Network?

That’s up to you.
Blogging is only one strategy.  It’s my favorite.  And my specialty.  And if you join my team, I’m confident in my ability to help anyone who’s willing to learn.
But, even if you despise blogging or don’t want to learn it, there are hundreds of other ways to drive traffic, generate leads and make sales.
All of these strategies are discussed, step-by-step, inside Empower’s $15k Formula.

What is effective Empower Network ad copy?

If you do anything, be original.
Don’t just rehash the same overused one-liners over and over, like everyone else.
I encourage my team to make their own custom blogs, create unique, targeted funnels for a well-defined “pocket of people”…
… and then sell visitors on themself, first, and Empower Network, second.
For an example of a high-converting squeeze page I wrote for one of my Team Mojo leaders, read this and see the results here.

Does anyone actually make money with Empower Network?

Is the pope Catholic?
Does a bear poop in the woods?
How ’bout a one-legged duck — does it swim in circles?
Yes, yes, yes, times ten.
I’m sure you’ve seen their go-to success stories.  It’s hard to miss them.
And while I don’t deny that there are many more who’re making very little or nothing at all, there are plenty of up-and-comers, like me, who’re set to dominate in 2013.
Here’s proof.
I’ve got plenty of teammates who’re following suit, because they’re using my advice and taking action.
You can too.  In fact…
I’ll be sitting by the pool, waiting for you, with a Corona, a lime wedge, some ridiculous sunglasses, and a big smile.
When you’re ready, join me.
Your Empower Network Team Leader,

Brad Campbell

Cheapest Way To Charge Your Phone

Charge Your Phone with Your Shoes:

In order to promote the green mobile technology, scientists from all around the world are doing efforts. A Kenyan man has introduced a new invention in terms to support the green mobile technology by taking part in the race of expertise technologies. His invention is called by the name of shoe powered charger.
Anthony Mutua is 24 years of age and he has stunned the word by creating a very sleek crystal chip that can be fitted into the shoe soles and can generate electricity by putting the pressure of human weight on it.
The mobile phones can be connected to this device through the medium of a thin extension cord. It is costing about 46$ at the moment. The walk is not only confined as an exercise but with this device it has become as the source of generating electricity and charging phones as well. In his explanations he has addressed that the chip can be fitted in any kind of shoes except the bedroom slippers. He also mentioned that the device is capable of working efficiently for three years on careful use.
At the first he introduced the prototype at the Science and Innovation Week, which was held in Nairobi. Since then, he is aiming to contract with some top shoe industries for the mass production of his idea. He also claimed that, once the device is well spread all around the globe, it will gain the popularity very fast and the people will love to rely on this device so that it can even charge several handsets in only one walk.
The engineering students of the University of Wisconsin also revealed a similar in-shoe technology at the Science and Innovation Week. Their prototype was concerned on the thermodynamic power that is generated through footsteps. They also declared that they have already founded a company for them by the name of InStep NanoPower and they will make sure the availability of this technology in 2013.
Not only shoes but the scientists have already introduced the t-shirts having similar ability to charge cell phones last year in the Glastronbury festival in England. The shirts have the amazing capability of capturing sound vibrations and generating electricity by them. Talking about the technological inventions, solar panel Bonsai chargers and Starke bikes are also worth mentioning here. By pushing pedals of the bike, you can generate enough electricity that can charge your phone in no time. Starke bikes also promote the exercise and the cause “green mobile technology”.
The generating electricity procedures of this kind are helpful in the under developing countries, in which people don’t have enough sources to stand along with the emerging technologies of the world. The electricity lines and the availability of electricity hours of these countries are also not reliable for people to keep their phones charged. Mutua’s device is a perfect source for that poor community of under developing countries.

Why is Android Eating up Apple’s Market?

Although Android by Google and iOS by Apple enjoy a lion’s share of world market, yet Apple have had an edge over Android over the years. But a recent surge in the sale of Android based devices has created an alarming situation for Apple as Android is really eradicating iOS from world market. For instance in China, Android market share has staggeringly risen from just 33.6% to massive 68.4%. Inversely, Apple’s share lags behind even Symbian that enjoys 18% of the market.

Android eating up Apple

Android VS Apple:

One of the biggest reasons in this gradual shift in fortunes is the introduction of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. It provides everything to the users they want like multitasking, rich notifications and deep interactivity. There are many more reasons why Android is eating up Apple market share but some important facts have been discussed in the following lines.

Better User Interface:

Unlike iOS, Android presents much evolved and modern interface. The best feature of Android is the navigation buttons, which are absent in its competitor. Android phones consists of Back, multitasking and menu buttons, which makes navigation easy without hassling to search virtual buttons; whereas, iPhones have only one home button. Furthermore, Android is more customizable features where you can separate home page from application page. In iOS you only see a page full of applications and nothing more which makes interface little boring.

Easy to manage:

Android offers an easy way to manage your notifications, recent applications and browsing with the help of tabs. You can use a simple swipe of one finger to dismiss your recent applications and other things that is much more simple than iOS where you have to do it harder way.

Easy to Manage

Widgets are resizable:

This feature is exclusively the property of Android and Apple fails to present any matching substitute. The customizable home screen allows embedding the content of live application directly through various different widgets. You no longer need to launch application and can send email or flip calendars right from these widgets.

On the other hand, there is nothing more boring than iOS retina screens where you see a grid of icons page after page to launch an application.

Powerful voice input:

Android incorporates powerful voice input whereas voice input in iOS is rather weak and sluggish. Android consists of a robust voice input engine that makes voice streaming really sensational. The engine allows to record voice in real time and you can see what you are writing unlike iPhone where you have to wait after speaking is done to see the outcome. You can record sound for unlimited period of time and in any language you want in Android 4.0. Apple iOS might still be excellent for voice recording as it allows searching from web directly but unfortunately it is suitable for only entertainment purposes. The main reason behind this is that it is still based on vanquished beta form which lacks many important features.

Social Networking:

Android totally dominates Apple in this field of effective networking as well. Android facilitates almost all community sites in its latest version like Facebook and twitter. You feel yourself as a part of huge social community whereas Apple has limited links to most of social sites, which obviously is not the best for promoting globalism.

Social Networking

Utility:

As far as utility is concerned Android is much superior to its counterpart. Android offers much more variety both in terms of hardware and software. IOS is limited only to Apple hardware and is very strict in this regard which has made its use somewhat limited.

Android is an open source and it is available to any mobile manufacturer to use it. That is why it is more popular among the people worldwide as they can use their favorite OS on their favorite brand.

Google experience:

Google is the most popular internet search and if you are a Google fan than it this is for you. Android provides the immaculate Google experience consisting of Gmail, Google maps and other Google products.

Creative Thinking Exercise – 3 Steps to Take Away Expectations

Expectations are great when they help you think about what you want to accomplish. Expectations can also help you envision opportunities and problems you could face before they actually develop.
Expectations can also force you, however, to do things that aren’t good for you or even relevant to what you’re trying to make happen.
When expectations keep you clinging to the same old ideas or stuck in the same old ways, you have to do something to deal with them. We have a creative thinking exercise that can help.

A Creative Thinking Exercise to Try

Here’s a creative thinking exercise for when expectations are boxing you in and stopping you from accomplishing new successes:
1. List all the expectations you or others have about a situation that is screaming for change. You may want to note whether each expectation belongs to you or someone else.
2. Imagine throwing out each expectation one by one and asking as each is eliminated, “What would I do or not do now WITHOUT this expectation in place?”
3. When you’re all done, ask yourself, “Which of these expectations am I now willing to quit recognizing?”

Can you use this creative thinking exercise to be more effective?
