What is the definition of Buzz Marketing you ask?
I only just heard about this awesome marketing method yesterday. I caught the tail end of one of my mentors (Dennis Karganilla) live ustream show (Askdklive) and he was giving out some marketing pointers.
One method that he covered that really caught my attention was Buzz marketing. I had been introduced to Buzz Marketing by my other mentor (Gregory Drake) but never really knew what I was doing.
So what is Buzz Marketing exactly?
Buzz marketing basically the online version of word of mouth marketing or advertising; similar to network marketing. It's what's hot right now, every niche has a hot buzz. For example, if you're an experienced internet marketer then you know that every single month, in fact almost every week there's always some new program, business opp, or product launching. You know that because you see it almost every where on the net; people fill up your inbox with "JOIN NOW XYZ IS THE NEXT BEST THING TO HIT THE NET!".
You also see it all over the social media and social networking sites like Myspace, Facebook, Youtube and especially Twitter.
EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT.
When everyone is talking about a particular topic, what does that cause?
A HUGE BUZZ!
"Ok, so where does the marekting come in?"
To take advantage of the phenominon that is buzz marketing you have to be VERY observive and know what's going on in your niche and then...
TAKE ADVANTAGE
Look around the net and find out what everyone's talking about in your niche weather your niche is sports equipment, herbal home remedy's, network marketing products or whatever, always keep an eye out for new happenings and what's hot.
"Then what?"
Monetize, when you pinpoint the hot topics of your niche you monetize on it by piggy backing of it's popularity.
"What do I mean?"
Take a listen to my audio recording above where I tell you exactly how I've been using Buzz marketing to grow my business and how YOU can do the exact same thing.
Afterwords, take a listen to the "Motivational Money Message" I put together for you, I hope you find it encouraging and inspirational.
God bless...

" How did I manage to go from 19 to 91 Subscribers Overnight? "
Oh my goodness guys, my theory has work it seems ;-)
As you know, I've been searching for the best way to increase my website traffic for this new blog. Two day's ago I posted a blog post entitled (Blog Advice) For Starting Your (Blogging Websites). In that blog post I shared with you some general tips that I had learned about increasing blog or website traffic, getting back links, etc. I also shared my theory about how I was starting to increase my traffic to my site.
Now, it wasn't anything that I claimed to be solely my own because I took ideas from here and there and combined them all into one and concentrated on one sole goal for the past couple of weeks and that was to get traffic to my new blog.
Guess what?!
It's worked! Fantastically ;-)
If you're new to my blog and you have no clue what I'm talking about, go back and read (Blog Advice) For Starting Your (Blogging Websites) to find out what I'm doing, how I'm doing it and how it's getting me a wave of traffic :-)
You see that picture above?
That's my stats for my blog over the past 13 days. I've put another picture below. I know that it's not of great quality but I hope you can make it out (I'll try to put up a clearer picture soon).
Snap shot of the CSV stats I exported into Excel
Pay attention to the last two dates (row 13 and 14). Now, remember I just started my blog only two weeks ago April 1st. I started applying my marketing theory more aggressivly between those two dates and it paid off big time! :-)
My goal was to get more traffic and subscribers and it increased 72% and jumped from 19 subscribers to 91! Awesome right? :-D
I wanted to share my stats with you to show some proof that my theory is working out quite well and share in my excitement!
How exactly am I doing this?
Go and check out my previous blog post to find out how I did this and how you should and CAN do the exact same thing.
Afterwards, check out the "Motivational Money Message" to get some inspiration to get on the ball! ;-) Give me a call @ (206) 339- 3824 and let me know what you thought of it.

You’ve probably been scurrying around the net trying to find that golden end all network marketing tip; looking for that one program, marketing system, or magic solution to your network marketing problems.I was looking for it too. I spent countless late night hours trying to find something, anything that would finally give me exactly what I needed all there in one nutshell and be the final solution I was looking for.
“Did I ever find it?”
NO I didn’t! Lol ;-)
Why?
Because there IS NO end all solution out there for me to find. Same goes for you. If you’ve been out there in network marketing cyber space spinning your wheels, Googling this system and that system, watching endless YouTube videos filled with fluff claiming to have the MAGIC potion – their lying to you…and you’re fooling yourself to think that there is one.
I know that may harsh but it’s the truth. I’ll prove it to you.
Go to Google right now and do a search for Network marketing programs. How many results come up? I can tell your right now, over 57 MILLION results and I guarantee you that a good majority of those search results “claim” to be THE program for you, your end all solution.
“How can you know for sure?”
You can’t because NO end all network marketing solution is out there, all online businesses or programs can in no way guarantee your success online. They all have disclaimers and all the disclaimers state that results are not typical, or something along those lines.
Why?
Because your network marketing solution, big tip, magic bullet lies within you and you alone.
“What do you mean Toni?”
I mean that while you’re looking and searching for the magic solution you’re missing the big picture…
Success comes from INCREASING you’re marketing knowledge of the industry NOT from somebody’s “magic system”.
Increase your marketing KNOWLEDGE is the best and biggest network marketing tip you could EVER get. That’s why I say there is no end all solution. In this industry is all about investing in yourself and in your education of this industry. That’s why SO many of you are failing.
I’m sure that the majority of people that read this post have failed in network marketing, I have as well, and I used to think that it was my fault because I could never find the right program or system. If you’re thinking it’s your fault, it’s not.
Network marketing, Internet marketing or anything for that matter is an ON GOING process of absorbing information from MANY different sources and most of the time it’s a long strenuous process of trial and error. I learned that the VERY hard way.
Buying Network marketing postcards, network marketing leads, jumping from network marketing program to affiliate marketing program, trying all different types of network marketing opportunities, schemes even down to network marketing software was the “magic solution” hunt I went through. Sound familiar? ;-)
And from ALL of that I learned one very valuable thing that got me to where I am today and that is to stop looking for THE end all solution and absorb as much VALUABLE information as I can no matter how small or big the information was, regardless of the price. When I realized that and came to understand the concept of personal development, mindset and self investing my success came pretty easily then.
So what have we learned?
You’re BIG Network marketing tip is to…
PAY VERY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THESE NEXT WORDS…
INVEST IN YOURSELF!
Lol ;-) there, now you can stop searching and start learning. That tip right there is basically as close as you’re going to get to the “end all solution”. Begin investing in yourself and once you start NEVER stop because like I said before this is an ongoing process. Every bit of true valuable information you can get (free, cheap or not) take it, learn it and PUT IT TO WORK (if you don't put it to work how can you ever expect to see any results)? It’ll all pay off in the end, now that I can guarantee you ;-)
God bless…

P.S. While you're here, stop by the "Motivational Money Message" tab and listen to the message I put together for you, I truly hope it inspires you and motivates you to keep going. YOU CAN DO IT! ;-)
Over the past couple of weeks I've been doing some extensive research about blogging and seeking out blog advice from some of the well known blog experts on the net.
In such a short amount of time my knowledge of blogging has tripled compared to where I started. I've always known that blogging websites are really great for marketing businesses (online or offline), building site traffic and many other things, however I suppose I must have underestimated it because I'm blown away! ;-)
If you're a regular visitor to my site then you may have noticed that the layout has changed quite a bit. I've added several pages to my site as well as this blog (ToniTone's One Stop Shop).
Why?
Because I've wised up! :-)
After mind boggling research, testing, tracking, failures and RE-testing I've come to this conclusion.
Why not combine (SMO), (SEO), AND Blogging to create one massive funnel for traffic to pour through to my site!
"What?"
I know you've heard of SEO (Search Engine Optimization), and I'm sure you have an idea of what blogging is, if you're not sure of what (SMO) (Social Media Optimization) is be sure to check out post to get more information on it.
More about that later...
Right now you're hear to get some free info about blogging, and I'm here to give it to you so, today I'm going to be basically allowing you to see first hand the theory I've come up with to get increased ORGANIC and FREE traffic to my site.
Now, I'm am in now way a blogging expert nor do I have the all end secret to website traffic to give to you, however I DO have a some blog advice, thoughts and theories that I want to share that I've learned and hopefully my information will help you with your blogging sites.
First off, if you don't already know I am an Internet network marketer, entrepreneur, marketing coach and mentor and I've been blessed to for the past 7 months work 100% from the comfort of my home.
DON'T JUMP TO ANY CONCLUSIONS, Lol :-)
I don't make millions per year and I don't claim to be some sort of a "Guru" but I DO have experience in the work at home industry and through trial and error I've managed to get this home business rolling at a pretty good pace as well as change a couple lives along the way, not too bad huh?
Alright, now that you know a bit about me we can move on to show and tell :-):
I've come up with a traffic building theory that if used properly can get you increased traffic to your site over night.
DISCLAIMER: The content within the blog post is not all my original thoughts. Bits and pieces have been borrowed from my business partners and other industry experts.
First let's start off with some blogging advice for getting increased traffic and back links to your blog or website:
This is my favorite part! :-D I've been struggling with getting traffic to my blog and although I do get a fair amount of traffic from social media I was itching to find out how to get MORE ORGANIC traffic.
I was lucky to come across one very awesome blogger. And you'll never guess where I found him? Twitter of course! ;-)
When I first started my blog I wrecked my brain trying to figure out how to get backlinks to my blog. If you're wrecking your brain about the same thing, not to worry. One FREE and extremly simple way to build your backlinks is by commenting on other blogs related to your niche.
After a couple of day's on commenting on other related blogs my site rankings shot up significantly, I was ecstatic! I even felt a bit "slow" because the thought of commenting hadn't even crossed my mind. So, yes a newbie blogger can get back links for FREE ;-)
What else did I learn?
Potentially a GOLDMINE way to build MASSIVE traffic to your site or blog even if you have no list, no subscriber base or any kind of audience at all!
How?
Ever heard of JV's or (Joint Venture Partners)?
Now, in my industry I'm always hearing about joint ventures, I've even been apart of some joint ventures with some of my business partners, however I wasn't aware that you could apply the same principle to increasing blog and website traffic.
If you're a newbie blogger like I am then I STRONGLY suggest reading this amazing ebook, expecially if your wanting to know how to make money blogging.
"Did you learn anything else?"
Why yes I did :-) but nothing I didn't already know about. Keywords are one of the most important things when it comes to blogging especially UNIQUE key words. I already knew this however I did sign up for an awesome keyword program that I never really paid much attention too.
Now that I think about it, I should kick myself for not using wordtracker earlier. This is a GREAT keyword program that allows you to find the perfect niche keywords for your blog posts and website pages. It even has a 7 day trial test drive available, so check it out.
Hmmm...did I miss anything? ;-)
There's never an end to the amount of information out there about blogging, building traffic, backlinks etc. These few tips are just some of the most valuable ones that I found and what I got the most value from. I hope you find it useful and maybe even begin blogging for money.
Stay tunned for my audio recording where I'll share more specific info about getting blog links and website traffic.
Oh yeah! I'll also share my "traffic theory" and bounce it off of you :-)
Meanwhile, take a listen to my "Motivation Money Message" I put together for you and I hope it gives you some motivation an encouragment.

So you're looking for bussines opportunity leads huh?
You might be thinking that business opp leads are the way to go, I'm here to tell you to wait a second, listen to what I have to say before you go shoving your last dollars to some company's bank account.
Step back and think about your income goals for this year. Are you wanting to hit the 6 figure mark like me? If you're serious about making substantial money online then you answered yes.
If you're new to the internet marketing industry then, I'm pretty sure that your seeking out ways to generate leads for your business but you need to be sure that your looking for the RIGHT KIND of leads.
"Toni, what do you mean RIGHT KIND of leads?"
Well, first let's define the two type of leads that there are.
1.) You have biz opp leads or (business opportunity leads). These type of leads are people who've expressed interest in starting a business from home but have little to no experience or knowledge about the industry better yet how to run a business.
In my experience business opportunity leads are normally tire kickers are not the type of lead you want to be gunning for. They normally have a track record of providing false contact info and it's like trying to mountian when it comes to get them to join your business.
2.) Then you have your TARGETED LEADS. What are targeted leads? These type of leads are people who have moderate to extensive experience in the home based business and internet marketing industry. Targeted leads normally consist of people who are already involved with an opportunity.
Targeted leads are the absolute BEST type of leads you could come across.
"Toni, if they're already involved in a business why would I want to talk to them?"
You want to make BIG MONEY real QUICKLY, and the only way to do it is to target OTHER Internet network marketers. Why? Because these are OPPORTUNITY BUYERS.
Don't get me wrong, business opportunity leads are not all bad. In fact, they are a great way to build your list BUT they are of not use to you if you don't know how to monetize them and MARKET PROPERLY to them.
Still have no idea what I'm talking about?
Stay tuned for my audio to find out how you can better monetize your leads and learn how to market properly to each type of lead.
Meanwhile, take a listen to the "Motivational Money Message" I put together for you and get some inspiration and encouragement to keep on going, YOU CAN DO IT! ;-)

What is Social Media Optimization (SMO) you ask?
Only the BEST new marketing method to hit the internet! ;-)
I've just been introduced to this new social media marketing concept and I LOVE IT! Actually, I've been using it for a while now but I never knew of a term for it until now.
Social Media Optimization is a term that my mentors (Gregory Drake) and (Dennis Karganilla) recently introduced to me. Basically all it is combining all of the social networking sites and platforms like Youtube, Linkedin, Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, etc and using them all systematically to leverage your online marketing.
SMO is a great way to significantly increase exposure to you and your business; it's been working wonders for me and my business. Quite frankly, in my opinion if you're not using SMO you're missing out on potential MASSIVE exposure and leaving LOADS of money on the table.
So how exactly do you use SMO?
Take a listen the audio above to find out how to maximize on the new phenominon call SMO and learn how I use SMO to market myself online and how YOU SHOULD be using it as well.
Afterwords, be sure to stop by the "Motivational Money Message" tab and take a listen to the message I put together for you. I hope it can inspire you and motivate you to take MASSIVE action TODAY.

Most small businesses are in search of better ways to market their product or service. Just like an online business specific marketing techniques are needed to make the biggest impact on their growth as well as the make the lightest dent in their wallets.
Marketing and advertising is not always cheap or easy to do, especially to those who are using "offline marketing" methods and are still new to internet and online marketing.
"Why is this important?"
It's important to me because as an experienced internet marketer it's my duty to provide a service to small business owners and let them know that you DON'T have to be spending $30,000/month on advertising to build your business.
"How is that possible?"
The Internet Makes It Possible! ;-)
If you're a small business owner and are looking for ways to market your business online, good for you, because I'm here to tell you that you're heading in the right direction! :-)
In fact did you know that you could set up an entire marketing campaign for as little as $500 bucks? Way to build your business on a budget huh?
