Repeatable Results in Affiliate Marketing

4 Comments

It’s a part of one of our bonuses and a powerful tool, but do you know exactly what duplication means for GDI? When it comes to marketing your GDI opportunity and gaining new signups, duplication means simple and repeatable. It means that if you truly want to grow your downline and business that the way you market the opportunity has to be easy to understand and easy for those you sign up to recreate and get new sign ups themselves. A great way that duplication can be achieved is by sharing the 7 minute movie, sharing great content or talking about your favorite features. It doesn’t take too much effort for your downline to share the same 7 minute movie, great content and their own favorite features to get others interested and signed up. Then their new downline members can do the same thing. These are now repeatable results in affiliate marketing.

It may take a little time to figure out your best duplication system, but once you do it will make your work that much easier. Duplication is beneficial because it gives those around you the simple tools to excel with GDI. Find a way of marketing that works for you, that is simple, direct and can be done by anyone, then allow your new team members to use the same marketing duplication system to build both of your downlines. So get started on a simple and duplicable marketing strategy today!

Leave a comment

Google+ is a social networking service offered by Google that allows for status updates, links, photos and more to be shared much like they are on Facebook, but with the added privacy of sharing this information only with certain circles that you set up. If you already have a Google account, setting up a Google+ profile can be seamless. To learn more on how to do this, see our post HERE.

Google+ offers a fun feature that can help you instantly create engagement for a blog post or your website. This feature is the embed post. Any time you share an update on Google+, you have the option to embed that update somewhere else. The embedded update will show up similar to post below.  It allows visitors to instantly comment and interact with your Google+ post right on your blog or website. This is a great option to encourage more interaction or just break up your content with something new.

To embed a Google+ post, go to your Google+ page and share what’s new. Once that new post is live on your page, click the down arrow that appears in the top right-hand corner of the post. Select embed post and HTML code will pop up in the window. Copy and paste that code into the HTML editor of your blog or website and save. Your embedded Google+ post is now live and ready for comments and new followers.
