Hey,
Want your blog readers to be more engaged with your writing?
Blog readers can be very fickle – with so many distractions around, why should they read your blog?
Distractions are the biggest enemy of bloggers - and it doesn't matter whether you are a Professional Blogger or a Newbie.
But what does the Professional Blogger do that a Newbie does not?
Check out this post!

An Open Letter to Readers Struggling to Build an Online Business
=> An Important Message From IncomeDiary <=
Dear Friend,
I want to thank you for sending me your ideas, but also for
sharing your frustrations with me. It takes a lot of courage
to be that open and honest.
But just as importantly, I appreciate your enthusiasm and
ambition. You have the right attitude and as long as you
keep going, you'll go far.
Now I have a couple of questions to ask you, and then some
advice on what to do next.
First, is your current idea something you are dedicated to
doing for 3 years, 5 years, or even 10 years?
Or do you think you'll change your mind again, jump ship,
and be on to the "next new shiny object idea"?
Now don't get me wrong, it's okay to change your mind.
In fact, a lot of my friends who I call successful struggled for
a couple of years to "find their voice" and identity within
their website business.
But when they finally "let go", and began to write with honesty
and feeling, and when they allowed their website business to
become an extension of themselves, THAT is when success
kicked in.
Second, I know you see a lot of people succeeding with
gimmicky-style marketing. And to be honest, a lot of this is
done simply to get attention in a crowded space.
HOWEVER, you must understand that it's not the gimmicky
marketing that is the secret ingredient to success.
What really matters is that a BIG IDEA lay beneath the
marketing. And that is what really matters.
A big idea that sets you apart from everyone else.
And while you might not have struck upon your big idea
yet, I'm pretty sure you've got it in you.
But right now, you need stability, focus, and the correct course.
Your current situation is like you've driven a tiny speedboat into the
middle of an ocean during a hurricane. Your ambition is getting
you tossed about in many directions.
What you need is a big, strong, steady ship that can move swiftly
and safely through the choppy ocean.
So here's what I want you to do next.
These 3 steps come from a book called "The Rockefeller Habits".
1) Set a 10 year Mission.
Tell me, what big goal do you want to achieve in 10 years? It must
be specific.
Mine, that I first set in 2009, is:
Help 1 Million Men and Women Transform Their Bodies and Their Lives
Once you've set this Mission, it will guide every decision you make.
It's as if you're walking in the desert, and you see a giant oasis
20 miles ahead. That's your destination.
But as you walk along, there will be many distractions that tempt you
to go off course.
And while you might zig and zag a bit, when you have your mission,
your final destination, your oasis in the distance, you'll forever remain
on the correct course.
Keep your eye on that and you'll never find yourself wandering
aimlessly, or worse, changing course and going off in the complete
opposite direction - often towards danger.
Having a mission will mean you'll always come back to the path
that keeps you going to that oasis.
Now I'll admit, that might not be the best analogy, but I'm sure
you'll get what I mean.
The Mission guides your decisions.
And it should be something so powerful that you'll stick to it on
both great days (when you foolishly think you can do no wrong) and
on the toughest days.
In fact, your mission will be the inspiration that sees you through the days
when your traffic drops because of a google change, or a competitor
criticizes you on their website, or you have a fight with your partner, etc.
The Mission will always be there to guide you.
Take your time and think deeply about this...it's one of the most
important decisions you'll make in your life.
2) Create core values for your business.
Your core values are the rules on which you operate your business.
You could almost imagine them as being your entire employee manual
in just 5-10 bullet points.
Any time you or your future employees are faced with a decision, a
simple review of your core values should be enough to help them
make the right decision.
You don't need a 150 page employee handbook when you have
powerful core values to guide you.
I really enjoyed creating the core values for Turbulence Training back
in 2010, and here they are for you:
1. Power people to peak potential
2. Help others: Customer service, customer service, customer
service is our priority.
3. We are always learning & improving
4. We create products on science-based innovation
5. We are No BS and politically incorrect, and make no apologies for it
6. Never, ever, ever give up
3) Define a handful of strategic moves to put you on top in your
niche market.
Come up with at least 5 strategic moves that you are best at and
will set yourself apart from the rest.
For me, these include:
- Mastering direct mail
- Improving online conversion
- Boosting customer service/customer appreciation efforts
- Creating the TT Certification
- Filming more workout DVD's
- Increasing my membership retention
What can set you apart?
Identify your unique ability and remember the Circle of Competence.
Use these to strategically plan the course of your website business.
So that's it my friend.
I hope these words help you shore up against the struggle that you
face right now.
You're strong enough, I know, to weather the storm.
And I look forward to hearing from you again when your fortunes
have changed.
Your friend,
Craig Ballantyne

What is the best day to send out an email?
Hey,
Ever wondered what is the best day to send out an email?
Today Craig Ballantyne reveals the findings of his career-long semi-scientific study into the human mind and how people react to messages.
Having posted hundreds (maybe over a thousand quotes?) on his Facebook pages and having written literally over 3000 emails in all in his businesses,
Craig has figured out a pretty good rule for delivering content over the course of the week.
Enjoy,

What is the best day to send out an email?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
By Craig Ballantyne
This is a test of your email broadcast system. If you are not paying attention to your customer's mindset, you're missing the proverbial boat, and may I suggest...
Achtung!
Now for my findings...
1) Monday
This is THE action taking day of the week... people are ready to buy... as I say about the fitness industry, "Every Monday is New Year's resolution day."
Therefore, particularly on Early To Rise (ETR), I post my best motivational message of the week.
It is the most optimistic message and the one that implies:
You CAN do this and YOU can do this.
I know it's the same line, but it means two extremely different and important things:
a) That it IS attainable.
b) That it is PERSONALLY attainable.
Big difference.
A lot of people will believe 'a' but find a reason not to believe 'b.'
Perhaps it is because they are not me or a big name marketer, or not wealthy, or they have kids, or they are too old.
Whatever. Everyone has an excuse that is stopping them from taking action. You must find it and destroy it.
The Monday Motivational Message needs to cover both 'a' and 'b,' preferably in an optimistic manner, and it should ALWAYS come directly from you (in case you use guest authors in your business like I do).
Finally, remember this quote when writing Monday's email:
"People will do anything for those who encourage their dreams, justify their failures, allay their fears, confirm their suspicions, and help them throw rocks at their enemies." - Blair Warren
Powerful.
In the wrong hands, dangerous.
In the right hands, world-changing (for the better).
People want to be forgiven for their sins of the past week.
i.e.) That they didn't accomplish anything... or, as is the case in the fitness world, that they totally blew their nutrition on the weekends.
I'll get 30-40 people to "like" a quote on my FB page if something like this is posted on a Monday morning:
"Forget the mistakes of the past. Learn from them. Do better today. You will succeed."
So that's Monday.
THE most important message of the week.
2) Tuesday
Reality check day. Report on a related news story. Guest articles are fine. This is also an action taking day because it is early in the week.
3) Wednesday
This is a good day to deliver great content tied in with a news-related or celebrity-related post.
4) Thursday
A good day for promotions. Thursday is a great "deadline" day that spurs action to accomplish something this week - as many people will feel like they haven't moved ahead one bit.
Put a little fire under their butts with some urgency... before the "I'm not doing anything because it's the weekend attitude" creeps in.
5) Friday
QnA is perfect because Friday is the world's collective 'exhale' that they made it through the week without losing their job.
We are definitely doing the right thing here with QnA. I think it could be even longer and that would only be more appreciated by readers... particularly if the QnA session is both broad enough and specific enough to a large %-age of readership that they feel like, "Ah, it's like he's answering that question specifically for me."
6) Saturday
The more I think about it, the more I think my business partner Matt is right about having a weekly summary email that also includes more ad opportunities and still one little piece of content that is unique to Saturday so that readers are still inclined to open it.
It doesn't have to be long, just enough to make it worthwhile for a reader to open the email on a Saturday before heading out to weekend errands/activities.
***************
Class dismissed.
There will be a test on the material.
It's called "Real Life."

Good luck,
Professor Craig Ballantino
