Where Is the Men's Grooming Industry Headed?

It seems like decades ago that the men's fashion and grooming industry was thoroughly conservative. Today, the industry that was yesterday eschewing new ideas in how men should dress and groom themselves is opening its arms to experimentation.

Whereas in the past, ideas such as "skin care" and "cosmetics" were terms that fell under the umbrella of "fashion" (which, at the time, was also a "woman's issue"), today men are paying premiums for grooming products marketed specifically to males. The market for male-targeted goods such as fragrances, anti-aging cream, and expensive cleansers is beginning to encroach on that of female-targeted goods. And the surprising part is that this market is still in its infancy.

The growth of this market corresponds to a change in the male lifestyle. One possible reason for this change is the gradual loss of fear as being mistaken for a homosexual, which has been-though many in this industry do not want to admit so-one of the major obstacles to marketing male cosmetics and grooming products. While this change has been a slow one, it is clearly making an impact on both what companies can market and how they can market.

This gives way to experimentation. Experimentation of products. Experimentation of marketing. The breadth of what products can be experimented with is nearly unlimited. Today, over 90% of men are using grooming products ranging from hair care and skincare items to aftershaves and fragrances. And this marketing is growing! Just last year the entire skincare market grew over 10%.

What companies should see from this is that the root is there. What comes next is nurturing that root-turning habitual users of "products" into loyal users of "brands."

At the moment, the men's marketing industry is still playing it conservatively. The reason for this likely stems from the still lingering confusion as to how to define the image of a man. Instead of simply marketing to men as a subgroup of a population, companies should be looking at men as a population itself, and then performing the market research and market segmentation that is common in most marketing practices.

These companies still see "the man" as someone who doesn't know the difference between bar soap and facial wash. And while there is certainly a market segmentation like this in the population, companies don't call it a segmentation. If they did, they would be able to market their products in a more efficient way (e.g., reeducating this group of men on grooming products).

I believe that the men's grooming industry will eventually come to this conclusion. And when it does, the industry will grow even faster than it is now. The new focus will turn to segmenting the male population in a meaningful way (as opposed to a stereotypical way) and creating life-long users.

Of course, to sell their products, these companies will need to reinvent how they approach copywriting.

Product Launching - 7 Smart Steps to Producing Audio Reports For Informational Products

If you are a marketer, you must market your own products... you HAVE to admit.

So what is the number one hurdle for creating and launching your own products?

Is it TIME? Sure, it takes long time if you're still creating products and using conventional methods.

Myth of PDF Reports

If you are a marketer like me, you sign up for special reports. These are made out of PDF files digitally delivered to you.

The problem for a marketer with "PDF distribution approach" is that writing is not for everyone. Worse, depending on the demographic, if your writing is less than perfect, your special reports can damage your credibility.

Give Audio Reports

What if you started giving away audio reports? You have been told all this time that you thought you must give away a special report in PDF.

Sure, everyone else does this, but to stand out from the rest in a competitive market, you have to zig when everyone else zags. So give away audio for a change.

Why Using Audio Is Smart

The good news about publishing audio is you can outline what you want to say and record it. Unlike written reports, your grammar does not have to be perfect and listeners are more forgiving.

Audio reports are easy to consume - think about this, with iPod, in the car, MP3, it provides great passive modality. In fact, you can podcast your way to iTunes to leverage even more.

If you sell premium products, people need to know you better. With voice and passion coming through your audio stream, you can better turn subscribers into paid customers. Especially if you're selling high-ticket items, your audio will paint a better picture of you to the audience.

Here is the 7 steps you should follow when launching a quality audio product. Keep in mind, the best audio recording style (or most entertaining style) is when you team up with another like-minded partner and speak in a group.

Even if you're the absolutely the best in your subject matter, listening to your solo recording will get boring. So get yourself Skype, download free MP3 recorder and outline with a partner what you want to talk about.

1. Give a nice intro and ask a pop question. If your audience doesn't know the answer, you got them pay attention to you the rest of your podcast. Let them know they need your info.

2. Tell them what's in it for them.

3. Tell them why they should listen to you.

4. Tell them what's NOT working, like in this article, PDF is not working for everyone.

5. Introduce solution - in this article, I used audio report as its solution.

6. Validate - share example of your solution is helping as opposed to the conventionally used solution

7. Call to action - now they heard you, you need to ask them to do something.

There you have it, you'll have an audio product to launch it. Hey since it's not another PDF report, why don't you charge more money than what others normally charge for similar written reports?

By the way, do you want to learn more about creating product funnel to drive sales for your online business?

Mass Profits Sites Software Review

In my short time of internet marketing and buying software after software to see which one truly claim to be the "best", am I impressed with what Mass Profit Sites has to offer for the experienced or beginner affiliate of internet marketing? In this post I will describe what this Mass Profit Site does and how it gets ranked in the search engines. It is said that even the small dogs in the internet marketing industry can make huge massive commissions like the big dog's. Sounds like a lot of bogus I thought once again, but I have done my research and purchased the product. Now usually I don't write anything about software products, but in this case I think it's now time to put my two cents. I wrote blog review about the Mass Profit Sites software and you can see my honest review with more details at the end of this article.

Mass Profit Sites is an automated system that does much more than simply launch your website. Your Mass Profit Sites pages are pre-optimized for SEO both in terms of on-page SEO as well as the regular content updates that your site receives. Your page is automatically configured with SEO optimized keywords, title, description, and the appropriate META tags that search engines need to index your site. When coupled with the regular content updates generated by Mass Profit Sites; the search engines will continue to come back over and over again; each time increasing your SEO rankings.

It can take time for the search engines to come through and index your site. They certainly won't stop by on day one; but within a week you should start to see your site getting traffic. Within a month you should start to see sales coming in; and it just keeps getting better. (it's what they claim). They key is... it takes time. The system is working for you. While there is nothing you HAVE to do (they really do stress this), there are things you can do to get them moving along faster. They also suggest that if you want to work your business a little bit you can promote your new sites via social media or article writing submission, get yourself known on forums in the niche fields of IM, Software, Health & Fitness and Self Help. The software is directly connected to the ClickBank API software, which allows Mass Profit Sites to choose the best selling offer at that very exact moment in four different high converting niche fields. Will this be the great breakthrough software that can make a difference in anyone's life? Or is it another scam? Here is what I have to say about this particular software on my blog.

How You Can Use Facebook Ads To Dominate In Product Launches

The following are common questions people have in regards to promoting product launches as an affiliate when you don't have a list.

1.) "Can I still do well and make sales?"

2.) "Is it even worth it?"

3.) "How can I compete with gurus who have lists of 20,000 people plus?"

And they are all good questions. Here are my answers:

1.) Yep.

2.) Sure is.

3.) Easily.

Now let me explain.

First, size is not everything. I'm talking about the size of someone's list. Your list could be in the thousands or even hundreds and, yet, you could still consistently beat the gurus in product launches that have lists of over 50,000+.

How's that possible? Because more important than size of your list, is the responsiveness of your list.

Some of the gurus who've built lists of hundreds of thousands, have pummeled their lists for years with offer after offer, while never adding any real to the lives of their subscribers. As a result, there list is pretty much dead. They send an email to 100,000 people, and are lucky to get 2,000 opens, and a few hundred clicks. So don't get too hung up on the size of your list.

Now, as for the third question about competing against other affiliates with much bigger list, (when you have no list at all), let me show you how...

First, you need to put together a bonus blog. This is a simple WordPress site that outlines your bonus offer for anyone who buys the product through your affiliate link. And then you need to get traffic to that bonus blog. But not just any traffic. You want the best traffic! The traffic of the top 10 and top 20 affiliates in the product launch that already knows about the product launch.

They've already been marketed to.

And in many cases, they've already made the decision they're going to buy when it goes on sale... or at the least; they're very receptive to the offer. And then you come along, and say:

"Hey, if you buy from me, not only will you get the product being launched, but you'll also get my bonus package which is worth $599 absolutely free!" And you scoop up a whole bunch of easy sales.

Now the next thing you're asking, is "so where do I get that traffic?"

Well, one of the places is with Facebook. You target the fans of the top 10 and top 20 affiliates with your ads. You find out who the top 10 and 20 affiliates are, by keeping an eye on the leader boards which the affiliate manager for the launch you promote will be sending you. Now, this is just one of a dozen tactics that you can use. If you plan on making the top affiliates in the next launch you promote, then you need to learn this method. It's what all the top affiliates in the game know, that the rest don't. And it's the reason they make 95% of all the money in the big launches.

You may be wondering how difficult it is to create your own bonus package. It's actually incredibly easy, once you follow the methods.

Timeline Management for Product or Program Launch

After being a project manager in the digital marketing industry for 10 years, I am pretty sure I know a thing or two about launching stuff. So here are a few thoughts on taming the timeline monster and the tasks dragon...

When it comes to launching a product or program, there is usually a deadline, date that you start work, and how much time you need to achieve all the steps. The best way to go about planning your timeline is to reverse engineer, starting from your launch date. Of course, this launch date has to be reasonable, not two weeks from today, but know that you can compress and/or overlap some tasks in your timeline so that you don't have to have absolutely the "ideal" amount of time to bring everything to perfection (which is overrated).

Your launch date can be affected by many factors - your target market's schedule and lifestyle (is middle of summer a good time if you want to attract busy moms whose schedule may be filled with shuttling kids around?), you own marketing calendar, seasonality of your offerings and of course, you own schedule such as travel, vacation, and family obligations.

If you are starting today, your reasonable launch date should be around at least 8 weeks away for a product that is relatively small in scope, and at least 10 - 12 weeks away if you are more ambitious. Then work backwards from you launch date to plan out the tasks and the milestone. If everything fits nicely with time to spare, great. If it turns out that, after putting down your ideal schedule, you should be starting 2 weeks ago... don't panic! You can usually find some tasks that you can work on simultaneously or in parallel, or compress the timeline for a couple of deliverables. If you do this, you just need to make sure that your schedule, your workload and your sanity allows a more aggressive work schedule. If not, you may just need to go back to your launch date and see if you can bump it down by a few days to make some room.

Keep in mind that your project plan or timeline should be a living document and you should be able to adapt as your project evolves so that your timeline meets the objective of your project. Use it as a reality check, and if you are not meeting the milestones, it may be an indication that you have to re-evaluate your expectation, change the way that you work, or see if there is something that is blocking you from buckling down and taking the necessary action.

Mobile Monopoly - The Fresh Technique For Your Achievement in Online Marketing

Out of all the online marketing items that are widely spoken about regularly, I would say that the Mobile Monopoly program is almost certainly very interesting as well as the most groundbreaking.

If we evaluate online marketing as well as to observe how effective and profitable it has been within the last ten or even fifteen years, and continue to do so, we will see that it is very popular. You see, it's believed that approximately one point eight billion individuals' are connected to the internet. Now check out the cellular phone also known as the 'Mobile Phone' business; from this all of us can easily see the massive dimension of it. At present, approximately five billion people throughout the world own a cellular phone; therefore, you can easily see the opening for success that marketing and advertising with this industry can bring to you.

In fact, the five billion mobile phone or cell phone consumers are waiting for you to send your advertising to them. In reality these are the sort of customers that businesses all over the world would choose to advertise their products, particularly the fifty million individuals' who currently have the smart phones. The number of people with smart phones is growing; and to prove my point, Apple not too long ago released apple iPhone4, and they sold over three million models within a calendar month.

Big organisations such as Google as well as the Apple company are continuously altering their marketing and advertising methods in order to dive into this enormous industry, and after Google purchased the promoting system AdMob, the Apple company reacted by releasing their very own marketing system iAd.

Marketing and advertising in this particular market is growing, however, amazingly it continues to be unheard of by many companies, and internet marketers remain unfamiliar with the way it operates, and the excellent opportunity that's before them when using this system. They do not know how to implement it, and how they can earn an income from using it. Now Mr Adam Horwitz the person who developed 'Mobile Monopoly' will show you gradually how you can generate money using his program. He offers to lift the cover from the key techniques he utilizes to get more than $1,000 daily in real earnings from cellular phones. Adam also would display the techniques he applied to simply obtain traffic even when you do not possess an internet site or keyword phrases.

His online video system will show you what is needed to become a member of this fresh emerging trend.

A good plan will decide if the business that you have will prosper compared to your competitors while a bad one can damage your business which can cause a lot of monetary loss.

One of the common and also the most effective plan to increase the yield of your business is advertisement. Advertisement allows your business to be known to clients for them to remember the service or product that you offer. It could be from the radio, television, or even online.

Normally, advertisement tactics could cost you a lot of dollars depending on the type of advertisement that you want, but there are also a lot of marketing proposals that are effective and free. A good example of this free advertisement service is a free press release distribution. Free press release distribution is a free service that will allow you to show your business to members of media for them to announce your business to the public in the form of news or articles since it is newsworthy.

Requests for this service happens through an introduction for your business in email, fax, phone, or even appointments and online requests to the editors of newspapers, television, radio, magazines, online advertisements and websites,with a free press distribution company. Since your business is competitive and unique, there is a big possibility that your request for a free press release distribution will be accepted. Your business could give interest to people and good media content while you advertise your company through the service that they introduce to the public. There are a lot of websites and companies who offer free press release distribution for the purpose of getting news that will be published for the public. Press release distribution is a good advertisement plan to start.

Although it is free, the media that will present your business or the service that you are offering to the public should be legitimate and trusted by people. This will add to the interest of people since it means that your business is not a scam neither a fallacy. Aside from that, some companies who offer the free press release distribution does not cover one media channel alone. They can publish your business side by side from radio and television to online distributions. That covers a lot of audience for you.

In choosing the right company that offers free press release distribution, you have to consider the standing of the company and their media partners. It should have a large group of followers and a good reputation. Aside from that, it should be trusted by people and covers not only one channel like a small blog site but covers a lot from different news websites to your local TV or Radio stations.

5 Best Secrets of a High Converting Sales Page

If you are making business online you should pay attention to have a high converting sales page. Although you think a page's conversion rate is totally unpredictable, you have influence on it. What is the conversion rate exactly? In online marketing conversion rate is the percentage of visitors who take the desired actions on the website. Desired action can be purchasing of products, clicking on ads or going to affiliate pages. If you manage to increase the conversion rate of your sales page with one percent, it is a good result in your pocket. That's why you need a high converting sales template. Perfect secrets to create a high converting sales page:

1. Well designed headers, which fit for the niche Headline and headers are very important parts of a high converting sales template, because it helps to grab your visitors' attention. You should choose an attractive header design with catchy headline. Nowadays, if the headline starts with the words 'top 10', 'the secrets of' or 'most popular', you have higher chance of catching the visitor's attention. Remember, you have only 3-5 seconds to convince the visitors to stay on your page.

2. Never use serif fonts Graphical headline and the whole text with special fonts are absolutely important when speaking about a high converting sales page. Always use easy to read fonts, like Arial, Tahoma or Verdana and watch out for the size of the font as well. The best choice is between 12-14px, this size is neither too big nor too small to read comfortably.

3. Detailed description of products and listing You should explain to the visitors why your product is useful and how it can solve a problem that they might have. A high converting sales template explains the product or service to be sold in a well written, precise text format. Put a bulleted list after this part of the sales page with positive and negative bullet points to make it easier to understand.

4. Almost every high converting sales page have testimonials on it Nowadays one of the best places for advertising your page or collect visitors to your site is social media. Every customer believes others who are satisfied with the product more, than business owners' opinion from their own point of view. Customers' testimonials with their endorsements are powerful part of the high converting sales page.

5. Limited time offer One of the best tactics to create a high converting sales page is limited offer. You mention on your page that you have left only a few pieces of the product. You are able to increase the interest with decreasing price for a short period. Nobody knows why, but if the price ends with 5 or 9 after the decimal point, it increases the conversion rate. You can measure the difference between sales pages that are using these elements and those that are not.

The computer game industry is developing at a phenomenal speed despite the fact that the global economy has been sluggish.

Inspiring trust is among the most important approaches you should use in your sales page. The customers are very careful with what they are trusting in. The best method of gaining possible customers' trust and prove yourself to be a respectable marketer, is to offer a 100% money back guarantee.

Offer bonuses that are of real and great value. Even though it might sound that is not in your advantage, you will later see the results of such strategy. Offer an entire package of great value along with your product and the profits will soon appear. Be sure to include bonuses strongly related to the major product in your packages, and present the benefits of the entire package.

Adopt a proactive approach and include a feature that will allow your clients and readers to respond to your letter. Of course, don't insist on this part, since nobody likes a presentation that forces them to answer and give feedback. You can easily make use of statements such as 'Click here to take full advantage of this offer for any limited time' or Click the link to buy and obtain your bonuses'. These are offers of common sense that leave the client to choose to respond you or not.

Last, but not less important, give your clients full contact information so that they know who are they are communicating with and where to address any questions they might have.

So You Want to Launch a Product?

Launching a product can be one of the most lucrative and successful moves that any entrepreneur can make. It can also be one on the most confusing, overwhelming, and stressful projects that you ever complete. The number and series of tasks that are part of a successful product launch can certainly cause paralysis in any of us which is why it is important to do your research and learn how to launch a product successfully.

This article provides an overview of the steps involved in a successful product launch. There are many ways that one can go about launching a product and there really isn't one specific formula to apply. In fact, the way you go about launching your product depends on your industry, your target audience, and the type of product that you have. In order for your launch to be successful you really need to plan out your launch and not skip or overlook any important steps.

A product launch consists of 5 major areas of activity:

Product Feasibility Assessment - Do you have a quality product? Are providing a real solution or something of true value? What is the market demand for your product? How about the competition? Is someone else out there offering a similar product? If so, how are they marketing it? Are you a leader in your industry or at least perceived as one? These are all very important questions that need to be considered as they can very well influence whether or not your launch will be successful. Strategy Development and Preparation - This is the stage when you plan out all of the activities and sequence of events that will make up your product launch. You will literally map out the next 3 stages of your launch. What needs to happen before, during, and after the pre-launch, the launch, and the follow-up stages? This is a very important step that involves a lot of organizing, research, and skill. This is the stage when you build your team as you will more than likely need to outsource several activities. Pre-Launch - Do you have a squeeze page set up? Are you actively building your list? Do you know how to build a list? Have you set up all of your social media marketing activities? Do you have articles and press releases ready? Are you blogging consistently? Have you researched a list of potential joint venture partners? Launch (The Main Event) - Is your shopping cart set up properly? Are your auto-responders set up? Do you have a compelling sales page? Have you created an event for your launch day? How about an affiliate program, is it ready to go? Have you considered other advertising methods such as pay per click ads? Post-Launch - Are you tracking your stats properly? Do you have ongoing communication activities in place? Are you listening to your customers and their feedback? Are you continuing with your blogging and social media activities?

As you can imagine there are countless areas of activities each requiring research, strategy development, and implementation. Launching a product is not an overnight task but with the right team members and tools, it can come together within a month or two, that is if your product is ready to go. If you are interested in learning more or want to become a Certified Product Launch Support Specialist, I highly recommend VA Classroom's Product Launch Support Specialist Program. Their program has really helped me put the pieces of the puzzle together nicely so that I can offer quality service to my own clients.

Diamond Jewelry for Your Someone Special

"Purchasing Diamond Jewelry for Your Someone Special".

There is a significant amount of information available that will provide you with the knowledge you need to select the proper "Diamond Jewelry". The first thing you need to know is what she likes and wants. Don't start your search until you know that. You also need to know type of jewelry she desires most. This includes the selection of the proper diamond, color, and style. In addition, you will need to know if she likes Gold or Silver mounting.

Do your research first, then search the market for the style and type of jewelry available. After you have found some that you think she will like, picture it where she will be wearing it and make sure it fits in with her line of clothing and colors. But don't make the mistake of buying it because it is what you think she would like, you do need to have your own opinion of it and how you think it looks to you and to others, but combine that with her desires.

Be a little conservative in your selection so it won't end up looking gaudy. Make it look pretty on her, and let her know it enhances her beauty as well.

You may be looking for something for a special occasion and when doing so, learn as much as you can about the style, type, and the particular selections that are available for that occasion. Don't go blindly off in a search if you don't have any idea of what can or cannot be worn for that occasion.

Be very selective when you find something that looks attractive to you, because if you don't know what to look for, your special someone will end up with fake jewelry that will tarnish or turn black. This would not only embarrass her, but you as well.

Take your time and do the research. There are many pieces of jewelry to select from and you don't want to be fooled into making a poor selection. Check online and make sure the company offering the jewelry is well established and reputable before you even contact them.

Once you have found the right jewelry, you may also consider maintenance of the jewelry. I have found that after jewelry is worn a few times the oil from the skin is embedded in the links of the bands or behind the mounted jewels. Once the oil is there, it will collect any dirt around and that will be embedded with the oil. The surface of the jewelry can be cleaned easily with soft soap and warm water, but the dirt and oil stuck behind the jewelry remains intact. The best way to clean any jewelry is to use the ultra-sonic scrubbing method. The jewelry is placed inside the cleaner and vibrated ultrasonically to break loose the dirt and oil and remove it completely.

We have several articles available for you to learn from on our website as well as a significant source of beautiful Diamond Jewelry for you to choose from.

If you have to pick one thing that matters the most in the success of a new product, it has to be the product launch. No matter what kind of a product you are marketing, its launch will instantly determine the success or the failure of this product. A lot of research goes into the commercialization of products to derive maximum profits at the introduction stage.

Product launching requires a lot of planning in terms of targeting the customers, sales, distribution, sales force training and development, etc. This is because it is not just about bringing a product from your production setup to the market, but also about how well you are able to do it so that the product is visible and available to the right people, in the right manner, at the right place and time.

Before launching a new product, firms must do a lot of background research. They must identify best customer segments, and the best positioning strategy against the competition. Distribution channels and their management also play a key role in success of a product because the product must be made available to the right people who are your target market segment. It is also very important that the firm identify the best marketing mix for the new product, which includes the price, distribution, product features, and packaging.

Many things have changed today because of the sophistication of customers and technology. Firms need to have an integrated approach for launching new products. This integration requires firms to create and establish traditional, online as well as social marketing tools at the same time for launching their product.

Through the traditional methods such as television, radio, and print media products are exposed to the masses. Since these traditional methods still have a massive appeal, these methods are most commonly used for new product launches in retail and manufacturing. In addition to these methods, the importance of trade shows, promotional events, direct mail, advertising, etc., cannot be ignored. These are tried and tested methods that are sure to generate interest of the consumer.

Online advertising and email marketing are two great options that can be used for product launches. These are extremely popular tools amongst businesses and hold considerable influence over the customers. Email campaigns have proved to be quiet effective in brand building for a new product launch. Online advertising through popular channels such as Google AdWords or pay per click service also widely affects the buying behavior of the customer.

In this age of social networking, it would be foolish to overlook websites such as Twitter and Facebook. These websites are extremely popular in people of all ages and backgrounds. Therefore, you will be able to expose yourself to a huge audience both young and old.

On the other hand, blogs have also found their way in product launches because of their increasing appeal to the masses. Similarly, online retailing is another great way to influence successful product launch. If you can't open your own online retail setup, you can partner with big names such as Amazon, Google product search, and eBay, etc.

There are many forms of advertising that can be used for product launching. If you are launching a new product, there has to be some type of experience in marketing or either you are partnering with an individual or company that has experience. Product launches are very important and keep the energy up in businesses online and offline.
