Women in Business Online: Why Joint Venture Marketing is so Darned Smart

Marketing business salesJoint ventures (predominantly Virtual Events) is the primary way that I grow my “list”… my community… my peeps… my tribe by leaps and bounds!

I’m hosting List Attraction Week right now! It is a multi-speaker virtual event focused on a topic of extreme value to the women in business online that I support and serve.

A virtual event is a joint venture marketing strategy that I highly recommend but, here’s the caveat… it’s not for the weak at heart! There’s a lot of moving parts to a virtual event and I believe the end results are totally worth the effort.

If the idea of hosting your own virtual event interests you or you love the idea of being able to put your own joint venture together (virtual event or not) to grow your list this year the Ready to JV in 4 weeks Tele-Course starts tonight.

Here are my top 8 reasons why Joint Venture Marketing (like hosting a Virtual Event) is so smart:

1) RAPID LIST BUILDING: The co-promotion of the joint venture partners creates massive exposure for everyone involved. Ten high profile joint venture partners with an average list size of 10,000 means that your message/event will be exposed to 100,000 people. That’s good for you and good for your joint venture partners too!

2) RELEVANT LIST BUILDING: When done correctly – the flood of new subscribers you attract through your virtual event are targeted and relevant to your area of expertise. Take List Attraction Week as an example. Serious women in business online want to know how to grow their list, keep people on their list and make money from their list. There is the potential to get the best of both worlds: quantity AND quality. And, when it comes to list building this is a winning combination!

The more relevant your list, the easier it is to build RELATIONSHIPS which is the heart of your community. Through relationships comes trust and that is the cornerstone of profitability.

3) IMMEDIATE REVENUE: A successful joint venture planned correctly can lead to immediate revenue. A percentage of the targeted and relevant subscribers you attract will become paying customers.

4) DIVIDE EFFORT MULTIPLY EFFECT: In my opinion, a virtual event is the ultimate leverage. By partnering with other experts in your area of expertise, the collective energy and effort grows your list, boosts your credibility and stimulates revenue. Now you can impact more people AND… do more and more of what you LOVE to do!

5) CATALYST FOR MOMENTUM: A virtual event is a catalyst for tremendous growth. My business grows by leaps and bounds rather than inching along. I’m also able to leverage the momentum and buzz a virtual event creates. And you can too!

6) CREDIBILITY THROUGH ASSOCIATION: When you partner with other highly respected experts in your field, it boosts your credibility by association. And, as the lead of the joint venture, you boost your fame factor too! “Oh wow! You know [insert name of super cool guru JV partner]? I’m impressed”

7) POWERFUL AND PROFITABLE RELATIONSHIPS: Collaborating and creating joint ventures with other experts boosts your credibility through association. As you add value and increase to their lives, they want to add value and increase to you. These mutually beneficial win-win relationships are priceless.

8 ) MARKETING BECOMES FUN AND EASY! The momentum each joint venture project creates allows me to get the biggest results for my investment of time and money. The key word here again is LEVERAGE. A Joint Venture is SMART marketing on steroids!

Sound good to you?

If you’re serious about getting joint ventures working for you in new and more powerful ways join me for “Ready to JV” it starts tonight at 7:00 pm CT.

See you there!

kim_brick_1I am a take-action kind of gal, so when I heard that I got a Full Day Virtual Retreat with Gina as a bonus for registering early for the 2010 Equity-Rich Women Online Platinum Program, I was sold!

And that day was catalyst to the biggest break through in the history of my business.

I’ve coached with Gina for over a year now, so I’m used to pushing limits and feeling a little bit uncomfortable (in a good way…in the way that true growth is happening), and now I’m equipped with a brand new way to look at business.

With a simple change (something that takes less than 30 seconds) I instantly set myself apart as a leader in my industry, I’m no longer just another “life coach,” I increased my value as a professional AND paid for the entire cost of Gina’s ERW program.

I don’t want to sound hype-y and so to be fully transparent I want to make it clear that I didn’t instantly make thousands of dollars. I didn’t turn on my computer to find hundreds of people wanting to work with me. No, it’s not that kind of instantaneous, hype-y transformation…but in an energetic way, it’s much bigger.

I have a brand new perspective for myself as a heart-centered entrepreneur, and I have great clarity for what I want to happen in 2010. With that clarity comes confidence, and with the confidence comes the ability to dream really really big and accomplish it.

I have limiting beliefs like anyone. I am scared sometimes. Sometimes I feel lazy or just don’t want to do something, but working with Gina has changed all of that. I added major value to my company, in the form of “equity”. That is, I can now sell my company to others because it’s worth something to people other than me and my clients. It’s a labor of love, but it is so much more than that now. My hours of work, and sweat, and yes, tears are all worth it because should I ever want to sell to start something new, I can — all with one simple change.

Being in the ERW group has already made a major impact on me and my business, and we’re just getting started!

Equity-Rich Women Online Teleseries Call 3 BONUS GIFT

heart-feltHello fellow success-driven women!

In case you missed the update, Call 3 in the Equity-Rich Women Online Teleseries has been rescheduled due to a loss in our family. But, I’m determined to spend time with you today in spite of it!

I’m directing you to one of my favorite interviews. It’s highly relevant to this topic and you’re going to love it! Listen as soon as you can because it will help you to answer the six questions authentically. Enjoy!

download-button-pink
.

And here’s a recap of the Six Questions Every Woman in Business Online Must Answer Clearly and Authentically…

1. What is YOUR authentic definition of success?

2. If not now? When? Are you letting fear of failure or excuses stand in your way?

“One trademark of successful people is they don’t let excuses deter them. They determine what it is they need to do ~ and then do it.” ~ Bob Burg, The Success Formula

3. What is your WHY? Why does this definition/vision of success matter to you?

4. If money were no object what would you be doing?

5. What is your signature of success? What is that totally unique thing that comes so naturally to you… that thing that sets you apart from everybody else? My mentor calls it your success DNA. I call it a signature – either way, our DNA and our signature are unique to each of us. {I don’t think I mentioned this yet but a hand writing analysis is one of the platinum tier benefits… it’s a fun way for us to break the ice and for you to get to know yourself even better}

6. What is the difference you make or want to make for others? In other words… What problem do you solve for others and why does it matter?

Okay, I’m off to be with family. I’m so grateful to be an entrepreneur. I’ve watched a lot of our family members really struggle to get time away and even the funeral day/time had to be strategically navigated around many family member’s employment barriers.

I’ll be back soon though okay and remember to send me comments, questions and feedback on the series to gina(at)ginabellinc.com

Unleash Your Joint-Venturous Spirit: If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em! Two heads are better than one. United we stand!

Friends working at cafeIf you want to enjoy the rewards of successful joint venture marketing (and there are many) here are five things to think about and do…

1) Get Serious! Pull up your socks, roll up your sleeves and make a firm decision to get joint ventures working for you in new and powerful ways!

Simply making the decision to leverage this high ROI strategy opens your mind and heart to new opportunities and new relationships. The pieces start to fall into place ~ not by magic ~ rather, your decision jump starts your brain and it gets to work figuring out how to make it happen (okay, sometimes that can be quite magical!).

2) BE the kind of joint venture partner you’d like to attract. One of the best ways to learn the lay of the land is to participate in other people’s joint ventures. You can get an inside glance at their systems and promotional materials. And, what goes around comes around… it’s the doing that will get the laws of attraction and reciprocity working in your favour!

3) Get into the game. Not sure WHO to joint venture with or HOW to put an attractive joint venture program together? You’re not alone. My best advice? Stop sitting on the sidelines. In addition to participating in joint ventures, become a student of joint venture marketing. Read books; search the web; listen to tele-seminars; take a course; find a mentor or coach. Identify the gaps and barriers holding you back and start learning exactly what you need to know to be empowered to take action.

4) Leverage proven systems. Dramatically increase your odds of success by leveraging proven systems and processes. Based on your joint venture marketing goals/plans this could include:

- Joint Venture Marketing Action Plan

- Templates and Checklists

- Client Management System

- Follow Up/Keep in Touch System

- etc…

5) Brainstorm and Mastermind with like-minded joint-venturous women in business online. Imagine the momentum and success you can create with a community of like-minded, supportive, caring women cheering you on, and taking action to do what they can to support your success…

It sounds incredible doesn’t it?

So what are you waiting for? Learn how to leverage relationships. Discover the power of a mastermind environment and tap into practical marketing skills and must-have mindsets, both are key to achieving success – on your terms – but not alone.

If you’re really serious about learning to leverage joint ventures to grow your business this year, you can Get Ready to JV in just 4 short weeks. My new READY TO JV Course covers EXACTLY what you need to know in step-by-step detail to start creating and leveraging your own successful joint ventures.

The course begins Wednesday March 10th and the first 20 women to register save $100.00. Act fast and you could be one of the first five to receive a 30 minute joint venture strategy session with me.

Can you tell I like to reward action takers? Action is where the magic happens ;)

Just one successful joint venture can dramatically up-level your business.

I look forward to seeing you there!
