Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Steve, food for thought, traffic exchanges existed and grew to what they are today without a single commission earned.

Now don’t get me wrong, I love commissions and smile when I get a payment, however I feel the focus has shifted from result based advertising to ‘how much can I earn by using said TE’ based advertising.

It’s all about focus *eeeek, that word again today lol* Focus on the traffic, the results…All else will come naturally.

Jon,
Don’t forget to take the system one step further. If you ever want to leverage your business to true autopilot, so that others are doing the vast majority, if not all, of the work, you need to try to hook up with each and every downline member or mailing list subscriber you get. And you need to teach them (well, the precious few who actually show interest in it, at least) how to do exactly the same thing.

Duplication works, folks.

Great news letter Jon.I diagree with you on the comms issues you said ”
Commissions are a bonus” I don,t see it like that at all whilst results are off course important from the exchange good comms can be earnt from using a good portfolio of comm paying exchanges and are very important and if it was not for them paying comms Iam sure there memberships would be greatly reduced.

Hi Jon, 100% correct with the focus comments. I think we have all been there were we try to promote 3, 4 , 5 … or 10 things and get no where. I have been spending my time this year promoting just 1 program and have over 2000 ppl join with over 100 upgraded members which now generates enough affiliate commissions to cover all my TE membership upgrades (I use around 20 TE’s). I know when I surf that using my own splash pages ppl sign up so I am not wasting my time. This has taken about 9 months to get to this point. Keep up the great work with HEN. Cheers Martin

Hey Jon,

Just wanted to say thanks for showcasing my splash page this week. I read Hit Exchange News each and every week and always look forward to the next issue. I completely agree about the need to focus in this business. It’s definitely one of the biggest reasons people fail.

Thanks again,
Derek

Hi Jon,

Your are pretty right about that. Focus Is the work that should drive us all on the internet if we want to reach any form of
success. An It is Hard to do because we get so distracted all the time. And once you have the list, what to promote? that is the other question everybody is tempted to ask and I think that it is where all the distraction come from… everybody would like to trow the miracle program at the list and sit back but what is it ? might be a subject for one more HEN even if you probably talked about it already and also tried with the pizza plan … food for the brain …

regards

Eric

Hi Jon
Thanks for the nice comments. Since moving over to the ownership side, I am amazed about the amount of time you owners put into your traffic exchanges.j It is a never ending job to keep the surfers interested and active in ones’ traffic exchange. We are only two months old , and already are making changes like our new surf bar. So my hats off to all the downers. It is a very competitive business.
Cheers!
Tony
