“How To Change Expenses Into Sources Of Profit”
I received an email from Ann Sieg yesterday, if you have purchased the Renegade you probably did too. Just in case though or maybe you dont read emails I felt this information was too important.
She is up to something big it seems. I will keep you informed.
Hi C.,
I’ve got some exciting upcoming news to share with you in this email but before I do I want to briefly talk about a powerful concept called monetization.
One of the most valuable skills in business is the ability to turn what are otherwise typical expenses into sources of profit. In other words, something that normally costs you money becomes an income producing activity instead.
I’ll explain more in a second, but first let me share a couple quick testimonials with you to help illustrate what I’m talking about…
**************
Hi Ann,
… I am averaging about 2 Renegade sales/day, and have only spent about $28/month to do that. Out of that, $19 is to keep Aweber getting my newsletter out, and the rest is my monthly fees for my website and blog. Really, I don’t spend anything on marketing yet.
It’s all article marketing, blogging, and newsletter stuff.
I’m averaging about a 94% profit margin!
Scott R.

Ann,
I thought that I was pretty savvy about the Internet before I read the Renegade but after reading the book and applying just a few of the principles I was able to create 2,495 leads and $8093.60 in income (that is just my Renegade income, not including any affiliate income or income from the folks that joined my Network Marketing business). I am continually surprised by a $100 or $200 check in the mail from one of the affiliate companies located in the Renegade back office.

Did you catch what Ty said?
He’s picking up extra income off of The Renegade System’s back end affiliate programs as well. That is what I mean by turning an expense into an income. It’s about finding as many ways to make money from your activities as possible. In this case, it’s Ty’s prospecting activities. Usually this is just a plain old expense for most network marketers, but he’s been able to turn it into a money machine instead.
Like I mentioned on The Renegade Network Marketer home page, you don’t want to limit yourself to one stream of income.
Aside from attracting people to you, one of the main goals of The Renegade System is to get your marketing and prospecting efforts to pay for themselves. This is done by selling an upfront info product, but it’s also done by providing your prospects with other business tools they’re inevitably going to need.
The thing to keep in mind is: Your prospects ARE out there buying stuff from other people. There are many tools they need to build their business… they might as well get some of them from you.
And, like Ty, who couldn’t use $200 - $300 a month in extra cash just from that added source of income? That can help cover your monthly business expenses or even something else, like a car payment.
One of the tools in The Renegade System that has been producing a lot of results for people - both in terms of monetization and getting people to come to them - is SBI! or Site Build it!
SBI! allows the average person to get their own website up quickly and easily, and it also provides some bang up training on how to drive free traffic to that site - much like what Scott has done in his promotional efforts.
I just spoke with someone earlier this week who had spent over $10,000 for a webmaster to build them a totally customized site… only to find out that it was completely useless when it came to getting traffic and converting that traffic into prospects and customers.
His response?
“Ann, this whole website idea doesn’t work!”
Unfortunately, this is a scenario that is all too common on the internet.
Just like a business opportunity, a website does you no good if it doesn’t use effective marketing.
For this reason, I believe SBI! is the best way for anyone who’s brand new to the internet to get their business online - it’s designed from the ground up with good marketing principles in mind. It doesn’t just give you a website… it gives you a website that actually does what you need it to do: Make money and attract targeted prospects.
Now, I personally know of more than a few people in The Renegade System who are getting awesome results with their own site using SBI!, but my hunch is that there are a whole lot more that I don’t know about.
So can I ask a favor of you?
If you’ve used SBI! yourself at any point and have gotten positive results - whether it was before you purchased The Renegade Network Marketer or after - would you shoot me a testimonial about your experience, what you’ve done and what kind of results you got? I would love to be able to share more stories with other mlmers about how people are generating their own pre-qualified prospects online…
as opposed to having to pester friends and family or cold call the same old, recycled opportunity leads.
In exchange for providing me with a testimonial, I’d like to give you a special interview I conducted with Lou Abbott, author of “MLM the Whole Truth.”
Lou has been a full time network marketer for the last eleven years, has been online from the get go and has never done warm market prospecting. In fact, in one of his previous mlms, he even had a website up and running before the company itself did!
In this interview Lou talks about the value of attraction marketing and how he has so many leads now he can’t even follow up with them all. Because of this, he only works with those that follow up with him. Oh - and he never mentions his mlm. He just waits for his prospect to bring it up and if he feels it’s appropriate, he lets them know about his opportunity.
A few of the topics we talk about are:
–The problem with using your company website to build
your business
–How he went from paying $75 a lead to having prospects
coming to him for free
–Why sincerity vs. an “agenda” wins hands down –Why you want to build a list to monetize your business –The most important function of a website –How Lou gets his message in front of people –Why a fuller monetization model makes the industry
safer for everyone
–What mlm companies are really paying us to do
To send me your testimonial, simply reply to this email and put in the subject line “SBI testimonial.” As you can see from the testimonial examples above, they gave some very nice breakdowns of their numbers, so if you can make it as specific as possible I would really appreciate it.
Now, about that exciting news I mentioned at the beginning of this email…
I’m not going to name names here 
but I’ve noticed a few people who are generating significant amounts of sales and leads through The Renegade System who are missing out on a lot of extra commissions because they haven’t uploaded any of their affiliate urls on the back end affiliate urls page!
This isn’t something I actively keep tabs on or anything, but I do happen to notice sometimes when we send out the bi-weekly affiliate payments.
You saw in Ty’s testimonial how he said he’s continually surprised by a $100 or $200 check in the mail? Well, that’s because he’s uploaded his urls for the other affiliate programs in The Renegade System. This is more or less free money that only takes a few minutes on your part to take advantage of.
If you haven’t had the chance to do this yet or if you’re not familiar with how this feature of The Renegade System works, just log in at http://www.TheRenegadeSystem.com and click on the ‘My Account’ tab at the top. Then click on ‘Back End Affiliate Urls.’ Everything is explained on that page and there are also video tutorials to help walk you through the process.
Now, the reason I bring it up is because I have a very special event coming up soon that I can promise you won’t want to miss out on having those urls uploaded for!
I can’t give you the exact details right now or a date because I’m still hashing some things out, but I can tell you that this event will involve GIVING AWAY about $20,000 to people who implement the marketing strategies talked about in The Renegade. It will be just a little extra incentive to help people learn how to build their mlm online.
I just wanted to give you a heads up about it so you have a fair chance to log in to your account and upload your affiliate urls.
You won’t want to miss out!
I’ll be in touch soon with more details.
To Your Success,
Ann Sieg
