8 Action Steps to Build Effective and Sales Strategy

Written by Bukit Sorrento


The 6th Pillar Program is all about DOING. It sets out 8 Action Steps to follow, one per week. Each one will be very short (yes, I promise) and will focus upon one simple, do-able, fast, effective and sales-building strategy.

Originally introduced to help members of SiteSell.com's 5 Pillar Program, it was so well received that "graduates" urged us to provide it to a wider audience, so that all affiliates (or those considering this wonderful, product-free way to generate revenue), could benefit from these all-important fundamentals.

Here's what one graduate ofrepparttar 6th Pillar Program, 5 Pillar Affiliate John Curgenven (john@aLOTeasier.co.uk), e-mailed as feedback...

"Overall I think it is a very good program for someone like me - many interests, lots to do, onrepparttar 102222 go allrepparttar 102223 time, in an environment where there are always distractions. It ensured that I reserved a time slot for uninterrupted concentration - I let my family know that I did not want to be disturbed and I switchedrepparttar 102224 telephone to answerphone.

I looked forward to each task and found that it provided food for thought and subsequent inspiration for activities not necessarily spelled out inrepparttar 102225 program. i.e. It made me think.

The 6th Pillar Program offers a much better way of "kicking-off" for someone looking to getrepparttar 102226 ball rolling but who has very little time - until success justifies more of it."

The 6th Pillar Program is not just forrepparttar 102227 time-pressured. It will also help you if you are new to affiliate programs, or if you have not been successful despite your efforts to date.
