Top 10 Motivational Triggers That Make People Buy
Posted on April 14th, 2008
People rarely buy anything because they need it. They buy things based on emotions or desires. When you have identified the emotions or desires, you will be far more likely to sell them a solution or alternative, than you would be if the only the facts were stated in your sales copy.
Here is a list of 10 desires that will reach out to people and make them take notice. Use your product to offer a way to fulfill these desires.
1. People want to make more money. They may want to start their own business, get a higher paying job or invest in the stock market. This will make them feel successful.
2. People want to save money. They may want to invest for the future or save for a big purchase. This will make them feel more secure.
3. People want to save time. They may want to work less and spend time enjoying life’s pleasures. This will make them feel more relaxed.
4. People want to look better. They may want to lose weight, tone their body, or improve their facial features. This will make them feel more attractive.
5. People want to learn something new. They may want to learn how to change their car oil or build a deck. This will make them feel more intelligent.
6. People want to live longer. They may want to get in shape, eat better or gain extra energy. This will make them feel healthier.
7. People want to be comfortable. They may want to relive aches and pains or want to sleep in a more comfortable bed. This will make them feel relieved.
8. People want to be loved. They may not want to be lonely anymore or want to start dating again. This will make them feel wanted.
9. People want to be popular. They may want to be a famous celebrity or be more popular in school. This will make them feel praised and admired.

Low Cost Methods to Generate Traffic
Posted on April 7th, 2008
When you first start out in Internet Marketing, one of the biggest questions you probably have is how to generate traffic to your website.
Some things you can start with are:
- Classified ads - visit Affiliate Referral Sources for a list of popular sites.
- Blogging - get your own blog and write articles to generate traffic to your site. If you do not have your own blog yet, visit the Website Managers blog hosting page.
- Article syndication - write unique articles and post them on places like EzineArticles.com, ArticleAlley and ArticlesFactory.com. While using programs like Instant Article Wizard can help you generate articles for your blog, the articles you write for the article directories must be unique and will be rejected if any of the content appears to be duplicated.
- Comment on other blogs linking back to your site
- Participate in discussion forums. You will have an option to put an small add and link in your signature that shows up whenever you post a response or ask a question.
- Record a video and post it to YouTube using popular keywords for the tags. It can be any type of video. Funny and instructional videos are usually most popular. When you create the video, use a program like Camtasia Studio to display your website URL on the movie.
- Join Yahoo! Answers, add links in your profile and answer questions. When you do, there is a box where you can link to your resource for the answer. This will usually be back to your site. Be careful here though, because entering an link unrelated to the question can get you in trouble.
As you can see, marketing online is not an easy task. It takes patience and focus to get the job done. Once you get it going on a schedule, the traffic will continue to grow.
Just make sure you are leading people back to a lead capture page to get their contact information.
