It is true that today, more and more people use mobile devices such as smart phones than desktop computers. There are two classes of mobile devices: those with access to the Internet and those without.

For advertising SFI and Tripleclicks, this situation presents an opportunity and not a drawback; to reach out to even more potential affiliates than would otherwise be possible. Let us not forget that a smart phone is a mini-computer in itself: people can read their emails and get links to social media on their smart phones in the same way they would do on a desktop computer.

For those having mobile devices without access to the Internet, one has to be more creative in reaching out to them. For example many companies can now easily send adverts to potential customers through text messages but as an individual you would need a database of mobile phone numbers of “business opportunity seekers.” There are some companies that have addresses and phone numbers of this type of people but you would have to pay them in order to get access to the database and the amount you pay will depend on how many leads you want.

If you use offline methods of marketing such as flyers, you can also leave your phone number on each flyer, so that potential affiliates can contact you. In the same way if you have some addresses you can send out cards by post and include your phone number on each card.

This combined with other methods of advertising maximises your chances of getting more SFI affiliates or Triplecliks members.

Marketing SFI to people who use mobile devices instead of computers requires pointing out exactly what they can do with their mobile devices to work their SFI and TC business. Currently, many of these people may think that you need a ‘real’ computer to function effectively in the online business world but it’s simply not true. So your job is to let them know just how easy and effective they can be even 'just' using a mobile device, and what options SFI and TC have that work well on these.

First of all, the SFI and TC sites are optimised for mobile devices. This basically means that they are ‘mobile friendly’, which allows those accessing the sites from these devices to effortlessly and comfortably navigate their way around. In the case of SFI affiliates, mobile users can easily and efficiently perform all the tasks required of them each day without ever switching on a computer. In the case of TC members, they can navigate the TC site to find products, play games, participate in auctions and so on, all from their mobile device.

If they’re like the vast majority of mobile users, they’ll be carrying their mobile ‘office’ around with them most everywhere they go. Show them how easy it is to log in and do their daily tasks, buy, promote and sell TC products through online classified sites, safe lists and traffic exchanges, play games, bid on auctions and so on, all whilst they’re ‘on the go’. Whenever and wherever they have a few minutes of free time - whilst waiting for, or travelling on, public transport, during a work or shopping break or any of those other multitude of times during the day when a few spare moments present themselves.

Demonstrate how to use mobile apps such as WhatsApp, Skype, GoToMeeting, Slack, Webex and other mobile conferencing and communication apps to communicate with their team members at any time of the day or night. Apps like Webex also allow you to arrange and host webinars - show them how they can utilise apps like this to train their team and promote SFI and TC.

Illustrate the many ways in which they can turn their mobile device into a powerful business tool by using mobile apps. There are apps available that will:

§ allow them to connect with current and potential customers,
§ market TC products and offer deals (great for ECA’s in particular),
§ provide customer support (an app called Desk for example monitors emails and social media and collects important alerts in real time, allowing for a prompt response to customers / audience / followers),
§ manage social media promotion (HootSuite springs to mind – schedule Tweets and posts, keep in touch with industry influencers etc)
§ provide regular updates to customers and team members
§ manage accounts and tax obligations
§ create and manage blogs and websites
§ write articles and blog posts

and many many more. Just do a Google search and let them see for themselves just how powerful a business tool their mobile device can be with the addition of a few simple apps.

No doubt these mobile users are already using their mobile devices to connect with FaceBook and other social media platforms. Show them how to use social media to promote SFI and TC using the tools they’re already using now.

If they’re concerned about being able to create marketing documents such as advertisements, build a website and/or blog and/or landing page, or write articles and blog posts, point them in the direction of productivity apps that will allow them to do this easily and efficiently. WordPress and Tumblr for example have apps that allow mobile users to create and post on the go, and many other platforms have built-in mobile services (ie TypePad). Also show them where to find all the marketing material in SFI that is already optimised and ready to go.

Their mobile device undoubtedly has a video camera built in. These days some of these devices are capable of producing good quality video footage and also have basic video-editing functionality. Demonstrate how they can use these features to create their own promotional and training videos for YouTube and other similar platforms. For instance, they can purchase TC products and then produce how to demo and product review videos. They can create training videos for their team. And so on….

In other words, the mobile devices of today are more than capable of performing all the business functions, and more, of traditional desktop computers. In fact, mobile users have a distinct advantage over those who rely on traditional computers because they can work their business any time, anywhere, when it suits them. That has got to be one big MASSIVE advantage right there for any business owner, online or bricks and mortar. Use that as your core strategy when marketing SFI and TC to mobile owners and then simply demonstrate to them how easily and effectively their mobile device can be turned into a very powerful business tool. A tool that they already have (so no need to buy a computer) and already know how to use (so no steep learning curve - they can concentrate on learning the business instead of learning how to use their mobile device).

Apps. are basically software programs that are created to work like micro computers in the smart phones.

Number of smart phone users keep increasing rapidly around the globe every day.

1. Check with your local Service Provider & other private sources on the cost involved in sending bulk Short Text Messages to their subscribers.

2. If the cost involved is economical and sending such commercial messages is permissible by your local Government Rules and Regulations, you can embark on this ambitious program. If you know the audience it will be a great promotion as indiscriminate messaging may have a negative impact.

3. However do remember that users have to “opt-in” to receive your text messages.

4. If you find the result is encouraging then you can do it with other Service Providers by which the opportunity to reach a wide base of subscribers is very good.

5. Why? You can also create your own app. And use it to promote SFI Business. Please check the cost involved and if found viable you can go ahead to promote SFI Business.

6. But while doing it, please test the app. And be doubly sure that it works on all types of devices. Other wise, the purpose will be defeated.

7. You do require a mobile web site to do this. Again, this web site needs to be created and set up properly; Other wise there are chances that this may not be suitable to support your app in a mobile device. It means, you marketing campaign will be affected badly.

8. Display banner ads. will be a good idea to promote SFI business.

9. GPS Targeted advertisements are another form of advertising in which you have the choice to select the geography or country or any specific area where you want to focus and place your ads to promote SFI business.

10. If you can afford it, you can create your own Ring Tone to promote SFI business.

11. Click to Call or Request a Call can be another form advertising in order to reach the smart phone users in this Century.

12. All said and done, do understand the fact based on a wide research that majority of the mobile marketers still have not created the mobile-ready content. When you try to embark on mobile marketing, please ensure that this aspect is well addressed.

13. Another important thing is – The act of signing up for SFI business by your receivers should be very easy. Again, you should be prepared to remind them again using text messages.

14. Do not look for huge sign ups immediately. Our mobile ads should arouse interest so that they will visit again seeking more details and or clarifications. Are you ready to spend time to comply with this requirement? Merely providing your Personal Gateways through short messages will not help.

15. It would be a good idea if you could use mobile key word research to just understand how mobile users search on their mobile phones. Based on this data, you can plan your ad strategy suitably.

16. Creating awareness about your campaigns is very important. How can it be done? You can promote Eager Zebra Games which can lead your readers or viewers to seek more. It means they will visit you again. Here, you can lead them to either your personal Web Page or Blog or you can straightaway provide your SFI Gateway so that they can read, understand and take a decision on Registering with SFI.

17. Visiting popular mobile apps will be a good idea to promote SFI business.

18. To keep users more engaged with you, you can talk about various incentives created by SFI like Signing Bonus, Mile Stone Shares, CSA Reward and so on.

19. Also read through web search how successful companies/service providers do things differently and stay connected with their customers/clients.

20. Have a time frame and work. If the initial campaign is not successful do not lose hope or feel discouraged.

Just do an analysis of the whole process. See what went wrong where? Make adjustments and corrections. Get in to the act again. You will be successful soon!

6. Mind your introduction in your approach to talking with them. You can't just intrude into someone's privacy.
Depending on your location, be observant on your prospects use of the device, if he plays just with it, you can just quietly say, 'Do you know that you can earn money through that phone?'
Definitely, you have caught his /her attention. The questions on your prospects lips will be, really? How? Then you come in with your SFI Business.

The advent of the smartphone and other mobile devices is changing the face of the Internet. More people now access the Internet from mobile devices than laptops and desktop computers. It is the direction of the future, for better or for worse. But don't focus exclusively on mobile users just yet - there are still millions of us using more conventional devices.

The typical user of a mobile device is younger and more mobile than those of us old enough to remember life before Apple allowed Microsoft to use mouse technology. They may also spend less time on any given page, partly because of the battery life of a device that is not plugged in, partly because of where they might be and what else they might be doing at the time, and partly because of the data usage charges sometimes associated with smartphones.

The marketing you do needs to accommodate all of that. Bear in mind that ads which look good on a laptop screen may require scrolling on a tablet or smartphone, so you need to keep your promo pages short and snappy.

The best way to cover both markets is to design your web page so it automatically resizes to fit whatever device it is being viewed on, and delivers information in smaller chunks. The Pricebender Auctions home page is a great example.

Automatic resizing requires a little bit of extra code in the header. The following works well for me.

Many people are now using mobile devices to access the internet, and as long as the people you want to target have a mobile phone that has internet access, I don't think this would be a problem.

If you place your advertisements on your website/blog, you could just send emails to your prospects and give them the link to your website/blog and I'm sure they will be able to access your site through the mobile phone.

Our Marketing Centre (www.sfimg.com/Resources/Marketing Centre) also has SFI ads, banners, flyers. You could use a text ad as your signature on your emails you send to your prospects. Again, I'm sure they will be able to click the link on their mobile phone and it will take them to the SFI/TripleClicks Gateway you are promoting.

Here is an idea that may work for you....Fish Bowl Connection.

You may want to work with a local restaurant or business to ask to position a glass bowl, such as a Fish Bowl, to collect business cards from other business representatives. As a trade for placement of the Fish Bowl on the front counter, you may wish to provide a data base of all the cards collected in the bowl in one month and provide the data to the store or restuarnat owner in a data spread sheet to use for promotions.

You may also benefit from the use of the spread sheet as each business card will have listed a cell phone number, mailing address, and web-stie as well as other means of contact for the business. Now you have created a Prospecting Listing for your SFI business.

It is important that you offer the same possibilities to the business that you are asking to provide space for your Fish Bowl Marketing idea.

This is a common way to collect cards and can lead to future business connections. Once the participant places their business card in the Fish Bowl it becomes public property so you may wish to host a business give away, Marketing Promotion, which may provide a free product such as Heath product or other from SFI in addition to something from the local business - such as a free appetizer or even a free alcoholic drink with a meal. The ideas are endless.

Mobile devices mean that people will access deals or promotions sooner than later so why not use the promotional listing with a time limit on the offer such as SFI Price Bender update for the next hour is a Home Gym or last few minutes left on a Privacy Maxx bid -

Marketing to your audience means you have something to offer them that they find useful or something that they surely want to buy.

Have fun with this idea.
