Where to invest?

#invest 
#Disney 
#bizzard
#overwatch
#cash 
#work

Stock investment of $600 in to......

.....Blizzard stock @ $70/ share I would have 8.5 shares, I  keep the change

or

......Walt Disney @ $105/share I would have 5.5 shares. I keep the change 

We all know Disney just bought Fox studios so they just made a crazy investment into their company so common sense says damn these people are going to be getting paid one day not to long from now. 

And then their is Blizzard this gaming company mad the game of the year which turned into this.
The Overwatch League (abbreviated as OWL) is a professional eSports league for the video game Overwatch, developed by Blizzard Entertainment which also oversees the League. The Overwatch League aims to follow the model of traditional North American professional sports, using a set of permanent teams and regular season play, rather than the use of promotion and relegation used commonly in other eSports leagues. Each team franchise is backed by an owner, and players that are signed onto the team are assured a minimum annual salary, benefits, and a portion of winnings and revenue-sharing based on how that team performs in the season.
The League was announced in November 2016, and the first twelve teams were established within a year from that. The first season started regular season play in January 2018, to run through June 2018, followed by post-season playoffs and an All-Star weekend to occur in July. A total prize pool of US$3.5 million is available to teams within the first season.

I am trying to make some money work for me thinking about how and where I should put it to work? Stock into Blizzard, Disney or maybe even and Index fund. If you know something or would send me some ideas, shoot em over. 

Thanks Joey The GGGent.

The millionaire next door

The Millionaire Next Door.
Many people who live in expensive homes and drive luxury cars do not actually have much wealth. Then, we discovered something even odder: Many people who have a great. deal of wealth do not even live in upscale neighborhoods
Wealth is not the same as income. If you make a good income each year and spend it all, you are not getting wealthier. You are just living high. Wealth is what you accumulate, not what you spend.

Millionaires and you
Nearly one-half of our wealth is owned by 3.5 percent of our households. Most of the other households don't even come close. Many live from paycheck to paycheck. These are the people who will benefit most from this book.
The millionaires we discuss in this book are financially independent. They could maintain their current lifestyle for years and years without earning even one month's pay. The large majority of these millionaires are not the descendants of the Rockefellers or Vanderbilts. More than 80 percent are ordinary people who have accumulated their wealth in one generation. They did it slowly, steadily, without signing a multimillion-dollar contract with the Yankees
The Seven Factors
Who becomes wealthy? Usually the wealthy individual is a businessman who has lived in the same town for all of his adult life. This person owns a small factory, a chain of stores, or a service company. He has married once and remains married. He lives next door to people with a fraction of his wealth. He is a compulsive saver and investor. And he has made his money on his own. Eighty percent of America's millionaires are first-generation rich.

1. They live well below their means

2. They allocate their time, energy and money efficiently, in ways conductive to building wealth

3. They believe that financial independence is more important than displaying high social status

4. Their parents did not provide economic outpatient care. Once the kid moved out the kid was responsible for one’s financial responsibilities. Damn it is a hard knock life. Don’t worry girls yo can always come home and raid my refrigerator.

5. Their adult children are economically self-sufficient. These kids do not need to come home and raid my refrigerator. They can support them self’s. Way to go mom and dad.

6. They are proficient in targeting marketing opportunities.

7. They chose the right occupation. It is now 2018 when technology is having a huge impact on the world. Get into being creative learn how to code, design games you should be happy in this occupation.

In The Millionaire Next Door, you will study these seven characteristics of the wealthy. We hope you will learn how to develop them in yourself.

The Research

What have we discovered in all of our research? Mainly, that building wealth takes discipline, sacrifice, and hard work. Do you really want to become financially independent? Are you and your family willing to reorient your lifestyle to achieve this goal? Many will likely conclude they are not. If you are willing to make the necessary trade-offs of your time, energy, and consumption habits, however, you can begin building wealth and achieving financial independence. The Millionaire Next Door will start you on this journey.

The Millionaire Next Door.

About two-thirds of millionaires are self-employed. Interestingly, self-employed people make up less than 20 percent of the workers in America but account for two thirds of the millionaires. Also, three out of four millionaires who are self-employed consider ourselves to be entrepreneurs.

Our household's total annual realized (taxable) income is $131,000 (median, or 50th percentile), while our average income is $247,000. Note that those of us who have incomes in the $500,000 to $999,999 category (8 percent) and the $1 million or more category (5 percent) skew the average upward.
On average, our total annual realized income is less than 7 percent of our wealth. In other words, we live on less than 7 percent of our wealth.

Ok so exactly what does that mean? Millionaires, millionaires who have million dollar ball park accounts  are only living on $70,000 a year?

24-year-old on track to retire a millionaire by 30 shares his 3-step plan

Americans are not prepared for retirement. Even Tho they should be. Why bust hump worrying about the future when you can be living today creating the future.  Think ahead be like this smart dude Brandon some Google employee who was living out of a 128 square foot truck. Living in a truck he saved 82%

www.gggent.com

http://gggentlife.blogspot.com

1. Make a plan
"Get a plan together as soon as you can," he tells CNBC. "The sooner you have a plan, the sooner you'll see your contributions compounding into something meaningful and substantial."
"Getting a plan together" means deciding exactly when you want to retire or be financially independent, Brandon explains.
2. Maximize tax-advantaged accounts
Figure out which tax-advantaged accounts you have available to you and how much you can contribute to them.
3. Streamline
Finally, "evaluate your priorities and cut out the cruft from your life," says Brandon. (Cruft is a coding-derived word for redundant and unnecessary clutter.)
Overall, Brandon says, "decreasing your spending is usually a lot easier and more effective than increasing your income." Plus, reining in your spending is something you can start doing right away. It's within your control.
And, while the ideal time to establish a plan for financial independence is when you first enter the workforce, he says, "the second best time is now."

Money Rules

Money rules.
How would you describe your relationship with money?
Personal Finance is more personal than it is finance: you have to make the decisions that are right for you- but also correct for your family. Whatever personal choices you make, make them thoughtfully and with a plan on how to get from here to there.

Part 1: Make Money
Getting paid is an indication that others value what you do, how you think, and who you are.
1.       Your job is your most import asset
2.       Knowledge is power. The more you learn the more value you can add to someone else.
3.       Know how much you are worth. Time/happiness.
4.       Get more. Ask "Can you do better?"
5.       Allow others knows how much you are worth. (Your work ethic)
6.       Understand that more money will not make you happier.

Part 2: Saving Money
Saving money is not the easiest thing to do. It requires you to prioritize your needs and wants of tomorrow ahead of you r needs and wants of today.

1.       Save 6-10% of your earnings. 6-10% of every paycheck goes into a savings
2.       Know your net worth your wealth, how much money you have saved is how much you are worth.
3.       The only way to find financial security is draw yourself a map.
4.       Carry cash its harder to spend. Breaking change is a no. Carry big bills.

Part 3: Avoid (most) Debit
Debt is a financial resource that you need to learn how to use WISLEY
1.       Use credit cards for emergencies. That way you can continue to put money into your savings.
2.       Have two credit cards. Keep the balance low and always in good standing. Thus increasing your credit score.
3.       Your financial security is more important than you or your kids current wants. When the time come they financially need something you will be ready to financial help them without stress.  
----Side Note same goes for your health. Your 1st concern is YOUR HEALTH: With it, nothing can 
     stop you. Without it, YOU ARE NO GOOD TO ANY ONE!
4.       Who cares about the Jones. Money is not a competition. Your life, your comfort (Security)


Part 4: Spend Wisely
1.       Sleep on it.
2.       Just because you have a coupon or it is on sale doesn't mean you need to buy it.
3.       Understand what you are paying for. Ask is it going to be worth it? Money, time or both.
4.       Pay bills 1st, as soon as they come in.
5.       Always get three bids. Do your research.
6.       Shop with cheapskates.
7.       Shop with a list
8.       Work on one project at a time. If the project needs more funds it will not be spent on a second project. Possibility that both projects can be put to a halt to due not enough funds
9.       Gas is not that cheap


Part 5: Invest for tomorrow
Make the money work for you.
1.       Research.
2.       If you can't explain it don’t buy it.
3.       If you can't figure out how much your investment or financial advisor is costing you. You are paying too much.    
4.       Ask yourself and find out the answer to "What's the worst that could happen?"      
5.       "Be fearful when others are greedy and be greedy when others are fearful. ~Warren Buffett~
6.       Be disciplined.    


Part 6: Cover your assets
Once you begin to amass savings, investments, real estate, and other possessions, you need a plan in place to protect those assets.
1.       Protect your health. Buy health care. If you're not healthy you are not working, you're not making money.
2.       Spend more time building a legacy than an inheritance. What is more valuable? Leaving $20,000 to your kids or instilling a work ethic that lets them earn an extra $20,000 a year?


Part 7: DO
1.       Help friends and family with information not money, at first. Seeing what they do with the information is a good indicator of how they will treat the money you loan them.
2.       Don’t hire them if you can't look them in the eye.
3.       Give back.

HOW TO GET STARTED

#Soical Media
#Start
#Marketing
#YourSelf
#Get Busy


https://www.youtube.com/user/GaryVaynerchuk




"Its not hard it just gotta be done right."
~DJ Drama~

Start documenting instead of creating. What are you going to talk about? What do you want to me be known for? Look your self in the mirror and ask your self what do you want to do everyday for the rest of your life? Do that!!!  But what is it that make feel that thing in the bottom of stomach, gets your blood rushing thru your veins, whats this thing that the very thought of it gets you  excited. Why would you want to do anything else? Hustle & self awareness, self awareness is key. Once you know who you are, be you. Be who you are Speak your truth

When doing this if your in it for the money, the fame, x y or z. No matter what it is your here for you have to have the patience and consistency to follow thru constantly updating. Other wise don't waist your time this just is not cut out for you.

Look at my social media pages Twitter, Instagram and Facebook pages I have been semi at this for a long time. Now I have way more time for to stay focused on getting past getting started. I know I'm still not even doing this social media stuff right. Its a game you gotta keep playing to get really good.
Twitter: https://twitter.com/idea_remember
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the___joe
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gggentguy
SnapChat: I should get one.

Once you have all these things set up how do you get noticed?
1."It goes down in the DM." Provide other people with value. Not to many people are doing this and       it blows Gary Vaynerchuk away.
2. Search hashtag that are interesting to you.
3. Reach out to people who have influences.
4. Get a hold of these people and explain how you  can bring them value. What can you do for these       people that makes you valuable?
5. Repeat 1,000 time over.
6. Set small incremental goals reach out to 100 people a week. That is 20 messages a day for 5 days.
7. Tell your story or a story and MAKE IT ENTERTAINING! OK?

To sum this up to get started you need to know what you want to talk about. How you are going to communicate it. How to get people to actually see it. Do not forget to actually put in the work. This is how you start.

Don't be scared just Fucking do it!

Reaching out to the influences is one of the best 
marketing strategies in marketing besides Facebook ads. 

Start Fucking Executing!!
"NOTE TO SELF START EXECUTING."
#GGGent_Life

Having some one advertise on my website how does that benefit me? Its does not always have to be about you. Help the others out their out!

Something Has Been Telling Me

Hello World,

Something has been telling me to get back to this blog. this one and my other one I started #GGGent_Life. Anyways Im back and it better be for more than just this one post.


Yes I am going to give this a try what do I have to loose? Naa what do I have to gain from this? Knowledge I can learn a lot from this opportunity. Some of the things I have learned already......

Negotiating with Sharks

Think like and investor. To deal with a shark successfully you must think like one and have the stones to boss up like one.

1. When you talk to a shark remember you are not talking to a bank. These people are not boring.
2.Check your ego at the door. These people eat little people for fun. These people are not the same        people you talk to every now and then about money.

3. You have an idea? You have an idea that you want to present to a shark? what have you done to execute it.

Private Equity Investors (PEI)

1.Venture Capitalist. "What is a Venture Capitalist
A venture capitalist is an investor who either provides capital to startup ventures or supports small companies that wish to expand but do not have access to equities markets. Venture capitalists are willing to invest in such companies because they can earn a massive return on their investments if these companies are a success.
Venture capitalists also experience major losses when their picks fail, but these investors are typically wealthy enough that they can afford to take the risks associated with funding young, unproven companies that appear to have a great idea and a great management team."

Capitalist http://www.investopedia.com/terms/v/venturecapitalist.asp#ixzz4eCOMby8N 


SIDE NOTE: STARTING A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS IS NOT EASY. YOU NEED A TEAM.

2. Angels. These type of people have a high, very high new worth. They tent to invest more money than the average investor. They do that because these type of people or for today lets say Sharks. These Sharks are seeking a significantly above average return. That means alot more more than you can imagine. For both you and them. 

Waters of Investment: 

1. Early Stage - Very Early. Sharks enjoy investing in early developing companies due to the fact that from the ground the only place to is up. Get Money.

"Why am I going to make it?I know know what I'm doing."
#GGGent_Life

Remember an Angel investor or Shark is with till the end. They need you to succeed. Get a shark you are good to go.

Sharks are looking for an investment! the rule of "10 x" They are looking for and investment they can ten fold their money with. You are not paying a Shark back. You ae making money together.

Things to Ask Yourself

Before you go swimming with these dangerous creatures "Sharks", ask yourself.
1. What problem is being solved?
2. What is the reason for this demand?
3. Nobody needs anything so what makes your product so Cool?
4. Where is your products ability to serve the market.
5. Most important question, How are you going to generate revenue? What is your revenue plan?
6. Who buys this product?
7. Your ability to pull this off.


"If you tried and failed, tossed the salt. That is only Practice for your pitch."
"Cool exercise is practice. Just Do It"
#GGGent_Life



Most Sharks take deals that are products. The problem with products is as followed.
  1. Costly to fill supply chain.
  2. Product may not be a company.
  3. filling the supply chain is idle money.
The supply chain: Maunufacture > Shipping > Warehouse > Retailer




IMPORTANT:
"Valuation math. You the company ask for (money) divide money by percent of your company you are willing to share = Valuation.
(Considered post money valuation.)
You ask for $100,000 for 10% = Valuation of million dollars after you get the money."

  • What resinates with everyday America?
  • Technology is a servicable product.
  • A good paten/ Copywrite will cost you about $40,000
  • Have Your Business WELL documented.
  • Be Prepared
  • Have a Support Team.
  • This Shit is real!

Prepare | Prepare | Prepare

If you ever believe in yourself enough and find your self trying to reel in a Shark.

See What Can Be Not What Is

INVESTMENTS
     When you are out looking for an investment you must ask yourself, what can this be? When you are out looking for that next investment it is best to be patient. You should be out looking for a "piece of junk". Something that you can transform into dollar signs. Visualize what your investments future can hold under your supervision, not what it is right now. Again you must be patient. Its your investment how much work and patience you put into it is what you are going to get out of it.

WORKING AS A TEAM
   When you are working at a job any job something that's paying minume wage or a job that you are looking at as a career, you should always take it seriously. Do you want to be a millionaire? Do you want to be the boss? Did you tell yourself yes I want to be a millionaire, yes I want to be the boss.
     This is what you have to do, act as if everything in the company affects you. Make your job your business. Take pride in not only your job but your work place too. If you see something on the floor pick it up. You see something out of place not where it belongs, put it it back to where it goes. If you finish your job early do not sit at your desk playing games, get up and go ask the real boss man if you can help him with anything or if their is anything else you can do. The boss will see that you are capable to take on more responsibility and eventually give you a promotion.

See What Can Be Not What IS
whether you are making investments or working your way to becoming the boss, See What Can Be Not What IS. If you are making that investment look at "junk" as dollar signs. If you turn nothing into something, well it was just said it is something. Something you will either be very proud of or something that will definatley make you alot of money. Who knows maybe even both.
If you are on your way to be coming the boss, its very simple. Go above and beyond. Act as if everything in the company affects you. Make your job your business. Take pride in not only your job but your work place too.

CONFIDENCE

Confidence:       Full trust; belief in the powers, trustworthiness, or reliability of a person or thing:
You have the ability to succeed.

     When you are meeting new people some people are shy. They may be intimidated by the person for some strange reason. Some people do have hard time talking strangers because for one they don't know what to say or they don't want o say the wrong thing. Offend the person or make them self's look foolish. 
     When you are talking to someone for the first time the other fellow may look frightfully big or powerful but he is still a human being with essentially the same interest, desires and problems as you. "Your just two important people sitting down to discuss something of mutual interest and benefit."

Three simple steps to become more confident when talking to people
  1. Be a front seater: When you go out in public places have you ever noticed that the back of the rooms fill up first? This is due to the fact that most people don't like to be noticed. Well guess what? Its the successful people who get noticed!! Make yourself stand out enjoy the fact that people see you. It builds confidence once you know that people know who you are.     
  2. Make eye contact: How a person uses their eyes tells alot about an individual. The eyes never lie. Eye contact says two things. The person not making eye contact says that they feel week next to you, inferior. Or its the persons way of saying that they are guilty of something.                                                 "You say nothing good about yourself when you avoid eye contact. You say, "I'm afraid. I lack confidence." Conquer this fear by making yourself look the other person in the eyes."
  3. Be faster: You can change your attitude by changing your posture and speed. Walk 25 percent faster and you will build confidence. Throw your shoulders back, lift up your head, mlve ahead jsut a little faster and feel the confidence grow. When go faster you are moving as if you are on a mission and you are not going to let anything stop you. People will look at you differently. As in lets not stop him or get in his way
Also you can become more confident with a smile :) 
A big smile give you confidence. A big smile beats fear rolls away worry and the idea of defeat.

IDEA: SMILE :)

Fear is Real!!! Types Of Fear.

     Yes fear is real. You must recognize it before you can conqueror it. Fear comes in all forms and shapes... Worry, tension, embarrassment, panic so on so on. These all stem from a negative imagination. The old "Its all in your mind", statement states that fear do not exit. Oh but it does exist. Fear is real, and fear is successes number one enemy. Fear stop people from taking advantage of the opportunities that are right in front of them. What are you scared of? Being embarrassed? Fear is a powerful force that prevents millions of people from accomplishing their goals and becoming successful.
   
Types of Fear

  1. Self Image: Improve it go get a haircut. Go to the mall and buy a new pair of shoes, treat yourself to a new out fit or two. something that you know will have you looking good and feeling good about yourself.
  2. Lost: Keep your head on straight. don't have everything scattered all around, keep the same things together. There is all so the fear of losing someone close. People do get sick and pass away. My best suggestion to you would be embrace the fact knowing people are not around forever. A freak accident can happen so before it does enjoy every moment you have with the people that are close to you.
  3. Failure: Stop worrying about failing and prepare for success!
  4. What other might say: Remember no one has every done anything worthwhile or important and never received anything bad said against them.
  5. People: The people that are "scary" they are just like you, just different. Like Biggie Smalls said "Picture me being scared of nigga who breathes the same air as me." You cant be scared of people. 
Action cures fear. Indecision, postponement, on the other hand, fertilize it. 
Action Cures Fear.
     
     Their is a kid who is has just learned how to swim, he is still scared of the diving board on the deep end. All he has to do is jump off the diving board into the water and he will see that is is no big deal. At this point this is where alot of people just need a little push. With or without the push conquering fear is as simple as making the jump. "The leap of faith". 

IDEA: CONQUEROR YOUR FEARS

Four Common Excuses; Excuses Don't Make Em!

Four Common Excuses
  1. Ones health
  2. Intelligence, Im not smart enough.
  3. Age, Your never to old.
  4. Bad Luck, No such thing as bad luck
     The most successful people are the people who do not make excuses! People who do make excuses constantly suffer from a mind deadening thought disease. These people are the ones that are quick to explain why they have not accomplished what they have set out to. If you are looking forward to becoming successful stay away from these people. 
     The people who say they are not healthy enough. Ya some people really may not be healthy enough, so those people don't count. But other than them the people who are saying they are not smart enough, they are to old, or my favorite they have bad luck. Stay away from these people and their will be one less obstacle in your way of becoming successful.

     1.Ones Health: You have two ways of meeting health problems.Their is this guy who was not even sure he was sick but he was so worried, depressed, that he may have been sick he gave up on everything until he actually became sick. 
     On the other hand their was a guy who was terribly sick with complicated heart problems. Knowing his time was limited he didn't sit down and let himself die. He was even more motivated eager to do something. 
     The difference is in how they thought about their own health.One gentlemen had Mr.Positive working his thoughts and the other less fortunate guy had Mr. Negative working his thoughts.

REMEMBER: ITS BETTER TO WEAR OUT THAN RUST OUT.
     
     2. Intelligence: What really matters is not how much intelligence you have but how you use what you do have.The thinking that guides your intelligence is much more important than how smart you are. Knowlege is only potential power, it is only power once it is being put to use constructive. 
     Henry Ford taught use a great lesson, if you ever payed attention to him. he knew what every major executive knoes; the ability to know how to get information is more important than using the mind as a gargae for facts. 
     "What I want around me are people who can solve problems, who can think up Ideas. People who can dream and then develop the dream into a practical application; an idea man can make money with me, a fact man can not. 

     3. Age Excuses: When beat down your fears of age limitations you add years to your life as well as success. How old you are is not important. It's ones attitude toward age that makes it a blessing or not. 
     When does someones productive life begin? I would say right around the age of twenty. Ok, so when does a mans productive age stop? Well if the person stays in shape and likes his field of work id say around the age of seventy. 
     So lets say a mans productive life stretches from the ages of 20-70. That is 50 years of living a productive life. How many years of your productive life have you spent? Your never to old to start something.

REMEMBER: A PERSON AGE 30 STILL HAS 80% OF HIS PRODUCTIVE LIFE LEFT.
    
      4. Bad Luck: Their is no such thing as bad luck. All luck is is patience, carefully planned work met with the right opportunity. "There is a cause for everything. Nothing happens without a cause. There is nothing accidental about the weather outside today. It is  result of specific causes."
     Practice makes perfect. Do you really think a pitch who strikes every batter out gets lucky every single pitch? No, the pitcher is practicing his throws probably every single day for hours at a time too. So when it comes time to strike every single batter out. Its not luck it is skill practice met with the right opportunity.

IDEA: STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR YOURSELF.

Mr. Positive and Mr. Negative

     The brain processes things in two way, positively and negatively. You can call these two forms of thinking Mr. Positive and Mr. Negative. Both Mr. Positive and Mr. Negative are working in the same factory "The Thought Maker", your brain. Both of them are working to be number one in the business, making your thoughts come to a reality.
     Mr. Positive and Mr. Negative are both very attentive, and obidiant to the Boss (YOU). You see something you automatically start to think. for example it raining outside. BOOM Mr. Positive and Negative are off to work. Mr. Positive thinks great its raining out side I will get everything i had to do inside accomplished,. When i'm done i'l probable sit back and relax maybe watch a good movie or two on Netflix.
     Mr. Negative on the other hand will come in and make you think, darn its raining outside leaving me stuck inside, today is going to be such a drag what a waist of a day. My game of golf is going to have to be rescheduled. Mr. Negative is tremendously efficient within just a few thoughts you got yourself thinking that today was a bad day.
     If you put Mr. Positive to work just a little bit harder Mr. Negative will become obsolite. Yes this also works vice versa but if you want your thoughts work the right way for you you will make Mr. Positive put that little extra work in. After time Mr. Positive puts all that extra work in and receives that promotion. Now Mr. negative is obsolite and Mr. Positive has more positive workers working on positive thoughts your brain will automatically have positive, reassuring, over all good thoughts come to you. If you think good thoughts good things will come your way.

~Think negativley and fail, Think Positive and succeed~

The Old Rules

Old Rules???
"People like me play a different set of rules from what you play by."
~Rich Dad Poor Dad~
   
     What Happens when a corporation announces a downsizing?  People get laid off, families are hurt and unemployment goes up.

     What happens to the company? The price of the stock usually goes up when the downsizing is announced. The market likes it when a company reduces its labor cost.

     That right when the stock price goes up, people like me, the shareholders get rich. That is what is meant by a different set of rules. Employees lose; Owners and investors win.

     "It is the difference between an employee an employer, but also the difference between Controlling your destiny and giving up that control of someone else."

"That is why it is foolish to say to a child, " Get a good education," 
It is foolish to assume that the education, school system provides will prepare your children for the world they will face.

11 Tips For Optimizing your Squeeze Page


  1. Success Stories: You want your readers to know what you are offering has value. Social proof online is the same as good word of mouth. If a Facebook friend or some other social media friend is saying something good about about something the chances of someones else checking it out increases dramatically.
  2. video and Multimedia:  Videos will keep your readers attention. They get a chance to stop reading and start watching something entertaining for a moment or two. Use only video media because you will not be able to keep someones attention on your splash with just your voice. It just wont happen.
  3. Color Usage: Be careful of the colors you use some colors will will make you believe what they are looking at is a gimmick and scare some people away. While on the other hand their are some colors that capture the readers attention and make them a little more interested in what you have to offer. The colors all depend on you home back and other background colors
  4. Page Set Up: Always make all of your pages easy to read and easy to scan threw #KeepItSimple
  5.  Below the Field Content: Google is not a big fan of squeeze pages because they tend to be spammy and light in content. Who cares what Google like right? Your doing this for your self not them. Their is away around this, make your squeeze pages very high with key words. This will give your page  a better SEO boost. Still keep your squeeze pages basic, simple, and easy to navigate threw.
  6. Limited Time Offer: Push your readers into almost being forced to sign up. Make them feel as if they will be losing out on something if they dont. Limited time offers are the best examples of this.
  7. To Big to Handle: Do not make huge extensive squeeze pages. They are intimidating. Not one person wants to read page after page of somthing. People are just to busy and dont have the to to read that much. Again keep your squeeze pages short and sweet.
  8. Dont Ask For to Much: It has been shown that the more information that you ask for the less likely the reader is going to sign up. Ideally you only ask for their Email address. You may or may not want to ask for for more information like their name on the Thank You for Signing Up page but your after their email address and you got it. That should be good enough.
  9. Language: The way say something is huge. Emphizs the value for your readers. It is smarter to sound smarter. Use words like "Download Temple" compared to "Submit"                                 
                      "Good English, well spoken and well written, will open more doors than a college degree. 
Bad English will slam doors you didn't even know existed."
~William Raspberry~

    10. Images of your Product: Images are always recommended for an engaging web page experience, and           this is true of squeeze pages as well. These images may not always be the most interesting expesially             when dealing with E books, but hey something is better than nothing.

    11. Statistics: Encourage numbers. for example, McDonald s is "Over 1 Million People served". Show off           how many people have signed up. When people see that other people are doing the same thing in a               way it becomes cool.  Here is your chance to brag a little bit. Make sure its something                                   worth bragging about.

The Correct Way to Make a Squeeze Page

The Goal: Building your database with a squeeze page. You need readers to give you their email address. Their are of course good ways and bad ways to go about doing this.

Pop up squeeze pages are annoying as hell these are not the route to go. They are always in your way when you trying to read something. That little itty bitty x that you need to click to make the thing go away, is never in the same spot. Not to mention these stupid pop up things are blinking most of the time. Their was a survey done by Jakob Nielsen and he found that 95% of readers found their online experience was negatively affected by pop ups.

I don't know about you but i'm not only getting thos 5% of people who don't mind pop ups to my site. Shoot I don't even be getting that many people to my site now. I don't want to annoy the people i am getting. When my site becomes bigger I want at least 95% of the internet to come to my site and enjoy what i have to offer.

A Decent pop up, not a good or great pop up ad because their is no such thing a good pop up but anyways. a decent pop up ad is a pop up that is not blinking east to read, professional looking and with an easy to to locate x or No Thank You Tab.

A good way to go about implementing a squeeze page is by making a splash page. Splash pages are custom pages that readers are sent to when they first visit your site. A splash page is a little offer before they reach your actual homepage.

If you make yourself a splash page make sure that your design corresponds with your homepage. You don't want your readers thinking that accidentally logged on to the wrong website. Also be sure to add cookies so that way when they visit your site a second time they will be directed directly to your site. Don't make them deal with your splash page every time they log on.
