Exerpt from this free ebook:

I’m taking a stand on your behalf. You shouldn’t have to put up with this crap and it’s got to stop now! People that are preying on your vulnerabilities have given the fat loss industry a bad name, and I hate to say it but it’s really the large majority of the industry that is doing this to you.

It’s time to shake up the fat loss industry and expose many of them for the frauds that they are. I’m going to go over some of the ways that the diet and fat loss industry has failed you and lead to this mass confusion.

The free PLR report that you can get today is all about coaching programs and how they're an easy way to create a high-ticket product with little work.

Here's an excerpt:

There are many theories on why coaching has grown to become such a popular tool for millions around the globe. The self-help field has always been a booming business. Combine the popularity of self-help with the Internet, which provides easy access to experts in every industry, and it’s easy to see why coaching is such a popular and growing field.

And coaching touches almost every industry imaginable. Here are just a few of the common coaching approaches:

• Life coaching
• Business coaching
• Executive coaching
• Personal coaching
• Health coaching
• Time management coaching
• Organization coaching
• Sports/fitness coaching
• Dating coaching
• Career coaching

Here are a few more fun statistics:

• “Personal coaching in the US was the second fastest growth industry, after IT. Apparently, there are 50,000 searches per month on Google alone from people looking for a coach.” (Sydney Morning Herald)
• There are an estimated 40,000 coaches practicing in 70 countries worldwide.
• The coaching industry continues to grow at a rate of approximately 20% per year.
• Coaching is currently a $1 billion a year industry.
• There are over 50 coach training schools worldwide.

What Does This Mean to You As An Entrepreneur?
As a business owner, the increasing demand for coaches provides you with an opportunity. As you’ll see over the next few pages, coaching offers you tremendous potential to grow your business. It doesn’t matter what industry you’re in. The coaching business model can be adapted to fit almost any business model and niche. In fact, the more specialized your niche and services are, the more opportunities you may have.

Well, it's the same with Marketing. I know… heck, I PREACH to my affiliates to set up custom error pages so they aren't sending traffic to dead pages.

You know the error pages that say “Page Not Found” and make your readers leave your site faster than beans leave my husband? (hee!)

Instead put up a page that says “oops!” and is monetized in some way. Use that traffic so that you aren't wasting it.

Well, sometimes I forget to follow my own advice.

Now, I'm not a total slacker. I DO have error pages on some of my sites.

For instance, you can see this one:

ShowMomtheMoney.com Error Page (opens in a new window)

BUT… imagine how embarrassed I was when a certain Internet Marketing expert sent me an email after he'd ordered on EasyPLR.com — and got the default error page — AND I didn't have it monetized.

Talk about feeling like a rooky. Geesh.  Double whammy – (1) error when downloading AND (2) no custom error page.

OUCH.

I know, I know. I'm making too big of a deal over nothing — or am I?

I looked in my stats for ShowMomtheMoney.com and over 2000 errors showed up for this month alone.

I'm glad I had my error page set up. It was viewed quite a bit the last few months.

And, in EasyPLR I had over 6000 errors this month — with NO custom error page.

That's a lot of wasted traffic that I've been losing month after month. (sob!)

That's not just bad for me, that's bad for my affiliates, too.  So, today, I'm working on plugging up those places where traffic is sneaking away from me.

So, are your error pages working for you?

If not, use them now.

Here are some ideas for better utilizing your Error Pages…

1. Set up a squeeze page like I did on ShowMomtheMoney. Send the traffic to an ecourse that you have set up or just have them join your ezine to receive your newsletter. (*If you don't have one yet I recommend this service and use it myself – click here to try it for $1.)

2. Offer a free report that contains your own product links. (You can create one easily with PLR content.)

3. Offer a free report that contains affiliate links. Need one? I'll have a new site soon where you can grab all of the free brandable reports you'll ever want or need.

4. Display your products like a storefront.

5. Put your RSS blog feed on your error page.

6. Invite your visitor to join your affiliate program.

7. Sell or trade the space if you don't have anything to offer.

HOW do you do it?

Well, if you're using Mom Webs or Reliable Webs, you just log into your cpanel and click on the little icon that says “Error Pages” and it'll walk you through it.

If you're using any other host, it may vary – and usually involves editing your .htaccess file. If you're on Windows hosting, it WILL vary (since you don't have a .htaccess file, silly).

If you are comfortable editing your .htaccess file, you can do this yourself. If not, outsource it to a Virtual Assistant.

To Set up Your Error Pages in your .htaccess File…

Open your .htaccess file and insert this code at the top:

# -ErrorDocuments-
ErrorDocument 400 /customerrorpage.htm #Bad Request
ErrorDocument 401 /customerrorpage.htm #Authorization Required
ErrorDocument 403 /customerrorpage.htm #Forbidden
ErrorDocument 404 /customerrorpage.htm #Not Found (Most Common)

Note: The paths to the custom error pages are all relative to the root folder (where .htaccess lives), and each could be different.

Then, set up your custom error page on your site – using the same name as you used in the htaccess file. (You can name the file and folder whatever you'd like — just make sure that you make it match in both places.)

That's just a quick “on the fly” explanation. I hope it helps you to earn more from your existing web traffic.

Warmly,
Nicole

The guide at www.FullTimeWAHM.com is an example. Sure, I could have filled it all with ME, ME, ME, but I wanted to provide examples and let my friends “shine”.

Stephen Pierce is giving away a free report that will teach you about building wealth. (Stephen has gone from having 2 cents to his name to making millions of dollars online.)

I just donated to Stephen Pierce’s Feed One Million Children charity drive by downloading a free report. I hope you will, too.

All I did was visit www.foragreatercause.org
and signed up to receive the free report.

For every person that signs up, Stephen will donate a plate of food for a starving child on your behalf.
I've skimmed the report and it looks interesting. But, the important thing is that you're feeding a child. Check it out!

For about the last year, I've been using keyword-rich titles in my articles to drive different search engine traffic to them — and have been altering my articles as I submit them to different directories. This is advanced Article Marketing stuff, but I do think some of you are ready for it.

Here's a report written by a fellow Internet Marketer I met in a forum through a paid site we both belong to.
Sign Up Here
I agree with most of it — and I do hope that you open your mind to the ideas in it. This is not a “The Death of Article Marketing” report, but I am going to say that things are changing and, as for me, I want to be on the front of change, rather than dragging behind.

Speaking of taking care of myself… I mentioned last week that I was headed to a conference in Atlanta —
OH MY GOODNESS was it awesome! I can't wait to tell you about it. And, if your industry or business op offers conferences, I can tell you that it is so worth it to attend.

No sales pitch. Just honestly — I think it is one of the best things I've done for myself in a long time. It was wonderful.

One of my goals for both of us for 2007 is to not only reach our business goals, but to feel good about how we look and feel throughout. Healthy, happy, successful moms.

Please read the report above and then share your tips for feeling good about YOU in the comments below.

Have a wonderful week!
