Facebook tab and ad...what am I doing wrong?

by rightwriterjob
3 replies
After failed attempts, I decided to pay for leadpages. I used their highest converting template to set up a tab on facebook for a women's diet program available in clickbank. I'm trying to get leads to build my list first, then use that list to get sales (isn't that the way it's supposed to work? All I ever here is: the list the list the list). All I've gotten are dismal results using the facebook ads program. This is very frustrating. Tons of reading and listening to BS for weeks, putting in more hours than a full-time job. I figured it would be worth it in the end, once I learn things and become more efficient. I even minimized my habit of jumping from one thing to the next to concentrate on this one thing. Anyway, I'd really appreciate if people would take a look and comment and critique. You can call me any names you want, but you have to tell me why you think what you do Maybe take me under your wing and get my ever-lasting gratitude. I'm supposed to have an IQ of 145 or 165 depending on which measurement you use, though you'd never think it by looking at my marketing attempts

It won't let me put jpgs here, so here is a link to my facebook page:

I purposely dropped the US, Canada, UK, Australia, most other EU nations because it made the cost too high. Is this a mistake? I know the cost drops when people click, but I can't start out at 50 cents/click. I notice a date on most, if not all, of the "guru" programs is pre-last patch for facebook. Costs maybe went up since then? Also, I notice quite a bit of white space on my ad pic and webpage, is that a factor?

Please let me know

Thanks

    Hi,
    Your doing nothing wrong so much, although building your list ay takes some time when you not do add swap. It is normal from all the subscribers in your list 1 to5% may purchase the venus. As you must realize people in your list also need to get to know you, to see what you offer on content in your next mails to them, so they feel you sending them not only sale e mails but build a relationship with them..Doing this manually as you do takes some time

    Also try to learn as much you can in the time you doing your business. It is NOT all about launching adds and only focus you be a millionaire in a month. If that was so, everyone would do this. Starting a business for yourself means in reality: Can you from your heart for people help people even if you not make money for the first 3 years? and I not mean $0 but I mean a monthly salary what normal people earn in a job. You have to forget the money, and focus more on helping and serving other people so they LOVE to be in your list, and stay there because of the wonderful content you share with them and advise them to share it with others so it becomes Viral.

    Another thing you might need to work on is the positive mindset. Now I can imagine when no money or subscribers come in the quantity you want you get frustrated especially when you put in alot of hours. You may want to practice visualization, see in your mind what you want to receive in your business and believe it will suddenly happen. Worry about your business brings back more disapointment, visualize more then the hours you put on postings and you see you get much more results...what you think and feel is what you will attract, and on this moment your outgoing signal is Disapointment and doubt, that is NOT a good strategy to begin with, but it is a natural reaction we probably all had when started out switching from a job to our own business

    Inbox or any other business all works, it is the persons mindset that fails in the process, change the mindset, and your business changes.

    I can advice you make a strategy to do your business so it not cost you hours of work, unless you like to spend hours.
    Lets say:
    30 minutes on forums helping people ( helping others is giving-and what you give out you will receive back)
    10 to 15 minutes on twitter making a combination of sale posts, some personal ones, funny ones, so people get interested in YOU
    Facebook also 30 minutes or so
    take on all 2 people per day you make real contact with, share their stuff with your people, help them, get interested in what they do, and they will do the same for you, which may drives more traffic to you

    Try to study writing good head lines, see how the Pro's do it, read their lines and go from there,,,Believe in what you do 100%, stay enthousiastic and just everyday say thank you for every post you place or send out, be grateful for the results that comes back...I love Bob Proctor, check him out on you tube, or more The Secret..See some books on robert kyosaki, think and grow rich, how to make friends and influence people by dale carnegy...This all helps you to change your mindset and do things in a different way

    Keep learning keep learning keep learning with fun and just do the work because you like to help people, then people will come..and again, if you want to have a bigger list faster, you have to invest money to do solo adds...But do remember,,sale is also determined by the power of the mind, it need to be positive

    I hope this helps, you can always contact me when need some help

      Just letting you know I read your post. Thank you for responding. I'd like to hear from others, just because more points of view are usually helpful in any situation. Any software to automate some of this for example? I have tons, but I think could use others. Thanks in advance
