That was the theme of the event that the founders of MLSP put on at the Venetian, an upscale luxury resort casino at the heart of The Strip. And iZigg was there. Bigtime.
One iZigg rep got a ticket, reserved a room and hopped on a plane to be there with only hours to spare before the event kicked off. Why? Because he knew that all of the top people from MLSP and even more from other companies would be there. It was a target rich environment. Too easy.
One of the speakers there even used iZigg's system to run a raffle during the presentation. The lucky winner received $100 on the spot. How powerful is that?
Imagine being able to contact your list RIGHT NOW. Wherever they are, you can bet they're carrying their mobile device. They will get your message. And they will read it. If they're interested in your offer, you can bet they'll take advantage of it.
No other platform offers the versatility and the almost guaranteed connection that text messaging does. Email doesn't even come close.
Oh yeah. You can also track all of your opt-ins in real time so you know instantly which of your marketing methods are producing results and which are not. And it's much easier to navigat than your Aweber back office, too.
What are you waiting for? Get mobile now, before your competitors do. Because if your business isn't mobile, it's standing still. c

Dave that would have been something to be a part of
Mobile Marketing is going to be huge and network marketers should be lining up to get involved.

So very right about the email
I was just talking to someone- a top leader in the industry- who told me that 90% of his emails do not get read even if they opt in. That confirms the stats huh? Glad you were able to connect to an audience that understands.

Email open rates
Hey Cara,
Yep, it seems that emails don't get opened very much at all. Everyone is trying to come up with catchy subjects to get people to open them, and then they have an email that they don't like to read when they do.
The most important part of the subject line is your name. If you're not writing emails that give the reader something they want, they'll opt off your list very soon. Or worse yet, stay on the list and just delete your emails.
Of course the same thing will hold true for text messaging. Send too many and you'll aggravate your list. Send messages that don't give them anything useful and they'll opt out.
It's relatively new now, but over the next year it's going to get big. Within 3 it'll be huge.
The thing I like most about it is I don't have to teach much technical stuff, and a newbie has a very short learning curve. Plus the customers are already in business or professional sales people, so you don't have to get them into a business mindset. You just show it to them and they either want it or not.
thanks for sharing about mobile impact
Hi Dave,
By the time the next "Live The Dream" rolls around people will be saying, "Remember when we didn't understand about how powerful mobile was going to be!" It's fun to be on the cutting edge. I, myself, like riding the wave vs. watching it roll into shore past me and wondering how/why I missed it!
Keep on zigging, Dave!
Missing it
Yep Dotti, I know what you mean.
Several times in my life I saw what was happening and didn't take action on my thoughts. Then several years later I'd be looking back and wondering why I didn't get involved.
Not this time.
For once I have gotten in front of a trend and I'll be riding this wave up instead of wishing I'd have taken action when I had the chance. Of course like all waves, this one will peak. But we'll have some great years before then. :)
Sharing an Insight
Hello guys! Martin here. I was surfing the forum when I chanced upon this thread and I was interested with your topic: mobile marketing. Just want to share my thoughts on it. I'm from the Philippines. It's basically a very small country mainly consist of 7,107 islands. The last time I checked we have only a population of roughly 80 million people. But according to a news report that I watched a couple of years ago, the Philippines is the TEXT MESSAGING capital of the world. I cannot accurately give you the exact number of text messages sent everyday by Filipinos but it was definitely 8-digits! One of the major reasons is that it is very affordable: it cost 1 peso to send a text mesage locally. $1 = 43 Philippine pesos. so dats 43 mesages for a dollar. Imagine d benefit of it. With that said, I do agree that Mobile marketing is gonna be a very popular medium in the coming years because almost every person in the planet is carrying a mobile device and you get instant access to the person you want to communicate. Just an insight.. Good Day everyone.

Philppines the text capital of the world?
Hey Martin, good to see you. I had no idea that the Philippines was the texting capital of the world. It just goes to show how technology can help overcome the challenges people face when it comes to communication and sharing information.
I'm sure that iZigg will be in the Philippines soon. Although I don't know their plan for expansion, they're talking about moving into other countries. As soon as all the legal stuff is taken care of the expansion will continue. I'd imagine that Canada would be high on the list of where we're going next.
Thanks for the comment. I'll see you around the forums.
You are most welcome Dave.
You are most welcome Dave. Glad to have shared it with you.I hope it can be valuable information for you in relation to your business.
I'l be seeing you around too.
