"Yes,
Santa Claus, There IS A
Virginia!"
Spotlight
on the
"Wonder from Down Under"
Virginia
Reynolds
During her first full
month as a Winner, this stunning young lady from Sydney, Australia,
managed to sell 18 Way of the Winner ebooks.
But that's just icing on
the cupcake, isn't it? The real money - the big bucks -
start to roll in when ebook purchasers upgrade and join the CHIP
programs. And this is where Ms Reynolds again demonstrated her
mettle, with a more-than-acceptable TWELVE PERCENT upgrade ratio!
(I can't wait to see how
she does when she gets a little experience! It's almost scary
to think about!)
How did she do it?
Well, let's hear the
story in Virginia's own words. And pay attention! She
has some genuine pearls of wisdom to offer that are GUARANTEED to to
help you in your OWN Internet marketing career!...
Stan:
"First of all, Virginia, congratulations on what can only be
described as a stellar opening act. After only thirty days in
the business, you have proven to be as aggressive and tenacious as
those fabled funnel web spiders from your home town!"
Virginia:
"(chuckle) Well. thanks, Stan. I like to think that
I have a deep understanding of what it means to show commitment, not
to give up and not to give excuses. I know what it means to be
pushed outside the comfort zone."
Stan:
"Let's begin our interview with the basics; tell us a
little about your self..."
Virginia:
"Well, Stan, my age has to be guessed at. (LOL) I
always say that I was born in 1900 when those pesky year of birth
boxes show up. I am happily married and between my husband and
I we have 5 adult children - some with kids of their own. We
have both 'retired' though now I am busier with my internet business
than I was in my offline career. My husband and I owned our
own business conducting a personal development/management training
license, very successfully, in a hard-bitten steel and coal city in
Australia for 20 years. (The 1980s and 90s - remember those times?
... high interest rates, Seinfeld and mainly pre-internet ...).
The training originated from the USA and this was a further
barrier to penetrating this hard cynical market. We HAD to produce
results, with an 'invisible' product for both our individual and
corporate clients - and we did. Gaining
trust and maintaining enduring relationships were essential to our
success. This background has prepared me well in
mentoring people in my online business."
Stan:
"That's a very key point of a successful
business philosophy, isn't it: 'Gaining trust and
maintaining enduring relationships' In other words, what
you are saying is that you have to sell yourself first, and THEN
sell your product."
"It's obvious that
this isn't your first rodeo, Virginia. Just how long have you
been marketing on the Internet, and what had been your experience
previous to joining W.O.W?"
Virginia:
"I have been marketing on the net now for close on eleven years
- and I find that the more I know - the more I have yet to know.
My profile at my twitter account (ezyhelper) summarizes my
approach very succinctly. I have followed every trend that
emerged in internet marketing over these years and have now focused
on a successful 1up/2up business - very successfully I might add -
since January this year. My twitter profile contains links to this
business and my blog: virginiareynolds.com gives my
views on the most common types of internet businesses. You and
I know that the net is forever changing and evolving - but the one
constant that does NOT change is that to succeed on the net you have
to have the same mindset necessary to succeed in any offline
business. That mindset is one of being a business owner rather
than employee, and be prepared to do what it takes to succeed,
ethically. That means that to make
money you have to spend some, even before making a profit,
- and not assume that the internet, in itself, is some magic
wand for success - it isn't."
