Internet Marketing with Purpose
March 17, 2008
I’ve identified FIVE PURPOSES that are essential for you to achieve success in your online Internet Business. Use this system and you will succeed in marketing & selling your e-book, service or product on the internet:
- PURPOSE #1: FIND
Find Your Purpose. What do you like to do? What gives you pleasure? That’s your purpose. This is known as finding your niche & this is the single most important skill in marketing.
- PURPOSE #2: START
Get your own product; Design it, write it or pay for it, just make sure it’s original. Then get started online by building & adding quality content to your very own website. Don’t take any shortcuts. Learn how to use Microsoft Expression or Adobe Dreamweaver.
- PURPOSE #3: GROW
You should optimize your site for maximum internet marketing potential. A good way to do this is by setting up your own blog.
- PURPOSE #4: PROMOTE
Build up a list of customers and treat them like you want to be treated.
- PURPOSE #5: MONETIZE
Use Clickbank or a good shopping Cart to actually sell your product. Just remember, the money is in the list. (Purpose #4)

Purchase all your domains for only $6.95 apiece and manage them from one simple to use software program. Forward them. Add-on hosting, e-mail tools, etc. all with the few clicks of a mouse. This is my own private labeled domain name service.

This is a really simple secret that contributes to your success.
It’s really more along the lines of “incredibly obvious”, but
I’m amazed at how many people still drop the ball in this area.
It’s come to be known as a “squeeze page”, but I prefer to call it
an “opt-in” page. Read more
Interview by Paul Bradshaw with Rick Warren
March 12, 2008
I found the following rather inspiring. In an interview by Paul Bradshaw with Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren said:
People ask me, What is the purpose of life? And I respond, In a nutshell, life is preparation for eternity. We were made to last forever, and God wants us to be with Him in Heaven. One day my heart is going to stop, and that will be the end of my body - but not the end of me. I may live 60 to 100 years on earth, but I am going to spend trillion of years in eternity. This is the warm-up act, the dress rehearsal. God wants us to practice on earth what we will do forever in eternity. We were made by God and for God, and until you figure that out, life isn’t going to make sense.
Life is a series of problems: Either you are in one now, you’re just coming out of one or you’re getting ready to go into another one. The reason for this is that God is more interested in your character than your comfort. God is more interested in making your life holy than He is in making your life happy. We can be reasonably happy here on earth, but that’s not the goal of life: The goal is to grow in character, In Christ-likeness.
This past year has been the greatest year of my life but also the toughest, with my wife, Kay, getting cancer. I used to think that life was hills and valleys - you go through a dark time, then you got to the mountaintop, back and forth. I don’t believe that anymore. Rather than life being hills and valleys, I believ’e that it’s kind of like two rails on a railroad track, and at all times you have something good and something bad in your life. No matter how good things are in your life, there is always something bad that needs to be worked on.
And no matter how bad things are in your life, there is always something good you can thank God for. You can focus on your purposes, or you can focus on your problems. If you focus on your problems, you’re going into self-centeredness, “which is my problem, my issues, my pain.”
But one of the easiest ways to get rid of pain is to get your focus off yourself and onto God and others.
We discovered quickly that in spite of the prayers of hundreds of thousands of people, God was not going to heal Kay or make it easy for her. It has been very difficult for her, and yet God has strengthened her character, given her a ministry of helping other people, given her a testimony, drawn her closer to Him and to people…You have to learn to deal with both the good and the bad of life.
Actually, sometimes learning to deal with the good is harder. For instance, this past year, all of a sudden, when the book sold 15 million copies, it made me instanfly very wealthy. It also brought a lot of notoriety that I had never had to deal with before.
I don’t think God gives you money or notoriety for you to own ego or for you to live a life of ease. So I began to ask God what He wanted me to do with this money, notoriety and influence. He gave me two different passages that helped me decide what to do, Corinthians 9 and Psalm 72.
First, in spite of all the money coming in, we would not change our lifestyle one bit. We made no major purchases. Second, about midway through last year, I stopped taking a salary from the church. Third, we set up foundations to fund an initiative we call The Peace Plan - to plant churches, equip leaders, assist the poor, care for the sick, and educate the next generation. Fourth, I added up all that the church had paid me in the 24 years since I started the church, and I gave it all back. It was liberating to be able to serve God for free.
We need to ask ourselves: Am I going to live for possessions? Popularity? Am I going to be driven by pressures? Guilt? Bitterness? Materialism? Or am I going to be driven by God’s purposes (for my life)?
When I get up in the morning, I sit on the side of my bed and say, God, if I don’t get anything else done today, I want to know You more and love You better…God didn’t put me on earth just to fulfil a to-do list. He’s more interested in what I am than what I do. That’s why we’re called human beings, not human doings.
Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.
Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.
Every moment, THANK GOD
