Three Ways to Increase Services Profits with Web Graphics (The ABCs):

A: Advertise It -
Help your clients get out there on the web in a bigger way. You can provide them services to:

• Advertise on their own blogs
• Advertise in their email newsletters
• Advertise on their own sites – many people underestimate the power of this!

Advertise on other people’s sites. For free – partnerships or affiliate programs. For paid – sponsorships or monthly advertising

B: Brand It – If your client’s branding is a complete mess then people won’t recognize their company.

• Fonts play a big part in branding. Stick with one or two. Don’t use a new font for every graphic.
• Colors – Pick a couple or pick a base to compliment.
• Small details make a big difference. Take it one task at a time.
• If your clients end up with a branding mess, you can help them fix it.
• Branding Pieces: Website Header, Button/Banner Ads, Logo, HTML Email Newsletter, Favicon, eCovers, Your Pictures, Graphics on Website.

C: Compliment It -
Graphics draw the eye and emphasize a point you’re trying to make – if done right.
Places to add complimentary graphics:

• On website pages – home, about, contact, faq
• On sales pages – will often increase conversions – test it
• Blog posts
• HTML Emails

Do You Have What it Takes to be a Direct Sales Leader’s VA Super Hero

Do you know what top sales leaders from companies like Mary Kay Cosmetics, Cookie Lee Jewelry, Celebrating Home, SendOut Cards and Juice Plus (just to name a few) all have in common?

Answer: They need top notch Virtual Assistants like you!

Technology has impacted the home-based direct sales industry over the last 5 years like never before. This has left even the most organized sales leaders feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. Why? Well for these top producers to continue to be leaders in their respective companies, they need to be in front of customers and their sales team members, NOT behind a desk trying to learn how to use technology to make their businesses grow. That’s where a skillful VA can come to the rescue!

Add Some “Tech” to Your VA Business & Watch Your Clients Smile!

There are many ways to increase the profits in your service business from niching yourself to hiring more VAs to work under you. Another smart way is to keep re-educating yourself on new technology so you can provide new services to your clients and help them make more money.

• Have you ever wished you could have helped your client with small tech issues?
• Are you finding yourself burnt out from providing only general administrative duties?
• Do you have a tech side of you just waiting to branch forth?
• Would you like to expand your service offerings and make more money?
• Does it take you more time to outsource than it’s worth?
• Are your clients starting to ask you about WordPress?

Running a profitable blog, marketing and selling on the Internet is actually a simple process. What’s not so easy, are little steps in between that are often technical in nature, like Cascading Style Sheets (or better known as CSS), making certain pages appear different in WordPress, protecting premium content, stringing together the payment system, affiliate program and membership system.

Tech stuff can be brutally frustrating and Lynn will provide you with tips and ideas on new “tech stuff” easily learned that will monetize your business.
