Let me explain in simple terms: <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>ONE:<\/strong> I began sending out my ads and getting 1000 hits a week for my team. I did this for many months and eventually as I went through the training I got my first member placed under me. As I continued learning, I realized that the more hits I could get for my team (and then when I became a team leader) and later for my own team &#8211; the better. So I pushed myself to get 3000 hits a week as I got better and better. It didn&#8217;t happen overnight! <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">This is Critical Skill #1: Effective Advertising.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>TWO:<\/strong> As a team leader, I realized that the more interesting and captivating my ad pages were (capture and splash pages), the more subscribers I could get to build my list. Soon my team was helping me build my list as well. This is all part of <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Critical Skill #2: Effective Capture Page Creation.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>THREE:<\/strong> My team leader showed me the importance of building a list with a good autoresponder. I began with TrafficWave and built a list to 300 there. But eventually I realized that the <strong>Power Lead System<\/strong> (PLS) and AWeber were much better because of something called &#8220;<strong>single opt-in&#8221;. <\/strong>They also had much better deliverability (which I knew nothing about as a new leader). PLS helped me to develop my skills at building effective capture pages so I could capture my audiences attention and get more and more subscribers to my list. And the bigger my list became, the more responses I got from it. This is all part of <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Critical Skill #3: Effective List Building<\/span>.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>FOUR:<\/strong> I didn&#8217;t realize until I had a growing list in my autoresponder, that there is a key phrase responsible for catching the attention of the reader and encouraging them to RESPOND back to you (the team leader). It wasn&#8217;t until this point in my journey, that I began to get people emailing me back to &#8220;send them the link&#8221;. I promptly did exactly that and as I got better at responding to my subscribers (from the &#8220;Steps to Six Figures&#8221;:<strong> Step 9<\/strong> training for Team Leaders) that things really began to change. Soon I was getting a new paid member joining my team each week (this was really new for me back in 2018). When I realized that I was doing this consistently, I knew that I could get better and better (and I did) and soon my team was getting larger and larger. It went from 6 in June, to 35 in August, to 65 in December and by the end of the following summer, I had hit over the 100 mark. You can do the same. But it takes time and training to develop your <strong>mind<\/strong>, <strong>marketing<\/strong> <strong>skill level<\/strong> and <strong>leadership skills<\/strong> (reasons we created the Steps to Six Figures Training). Everything I have described here is part of <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Critical Skill #4: Effective Communication with Your List.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>FIVE:<\/strong> The better I got at marketing and building my team, the better I also began to get at building funnels. <strong>Funnels are the way to describe everything that happens to you<\/strong> from subscribing to a <strong>capture page<\/strong> (an ad), going to the <strong>&#8220;Thank you Sales page&#8221;<\/strong> that comes next to share with you more about the opportunity, the <strong>auto emails<\/strong> you get in your email box every day from your sponsor, the procedure that brings you to the point of <strong>becoming a paying member<\/strong> and <strong>everything<\/strong> that happens to you after that point. This is really advanced, so I&#8217;m not going to say more about it now but the Steps to Six Figures Training will explain further as you go from Step to Step!
