    Hello everyone, and welcome to our special report!

    This report could actually make or break your business, because if you don't fully understand this One Thing, this one key to sales success, you won't be able to make even 1d online.

    You know that everything that I present to you in the Easy Auction Business video course is true because I've tested it all myself. And this report is certainly no exception. Now remember, I'm no guru or holy man. In fact the things that I'm going to tell you in this report are not secrets. These are things that the most successful sellers are already doing, things that work! I'm simply an observer who has collected together all of the most successful techniques that are out there for selling products online.

    And yet, despite all my teachings and warnings, some people seem to make the same old mistakes, over and over again! For example:

    They search for a lifetime trying to find the one product that will yield a 500% profit margin. (Here's a hint: it doesn't exist.)

     

    They spend ages trying to figure out where their competitors are sourcing their products. They notice a website online that seems to be selling products for less than cost and they assume that this website must have some “secret” super-supplier. But in reality, they've just found one of the many websites selling for under cost simply to attract repeat customers.

     

    They spend hours and hours on the computer trying to master Photoshop so that they can create graphics and layouts for their websites when they should be hiring a professional to do this. (In the end, hiring a professional will produce a better result, and for a lot less than the price of Photoshop! And besides, pros rarely use Photoshop. They're more likely to use a vector based graphics program.)

     

    And the list goes on...


    But why do people keep making these same mistakes? Here are a few reasons that I've found:

    Lack of knowledge - Sometimes, newbies who are just starting out simply don't want to learn anything from someone who's been in the game a little longer. They think that they've already got everything figured out. They only find out that they're wrong after losing hundreds or thousands of pounds!

     

    Ego - You've got to be humble in order to take the time to listen to others and find out what's actually wrong with your business. Unfortunately, some people are just too proud to make this happen.

     

    They Want to Be Lone Rangers - You simply can't run an online shop all by yourself. Now this doesn't mean that you have to take on an entire staff of employees, but at least consider hiring out a few people on a freelance basis. It will be worth it. People who don't do this always find themselves in over their heads.


    But why am I saying all of this?

    Because I need you to listen very carefully to whats about to come next. This One Thing really is the single support that will make or break your business.

    Take this One Thing and start implementing it daily, and you'll make LOADs of money. Seriously!

    It may sound too good to be true, but it's not. This is the real thing.

    “Okay Andrew! What's this 'One Thing' that you keep going on and on about?”

     

    It's TRAFFIC.

    That's right. Traffic is the secret ingredient that most online sellers are missing. In fact, this ingredient really isn't all that secret at all! Who hasn't heard about the importance of traffic at least once? And yet shops are opened and closed within months, again and again every year, because of a lack of traffic. People wonder why their shops aren't generating money and they try new designs and new products, all the while not realizing that they've forgotten about the One Thing that actually matters.

    This is like opening up a furniture shop in the middle of the desert and wondering why no customers are coming. No, it's not the store front that's the problem, and it's not even the product.

    No matter what you sell, if there's no one there to buy it, it won't sell. It couldn't be any more axiomatic.

    Even I used to repeat this mistake over and over. I went on for years trying to find the “perfect product” and the “perfect idea.” Every few months I'd have a new idea, and every few months my new business would fail. Each time, I thought that the idea itself was the problem, so I would always believe that the next one would be the one to make me rich.

    No. Instead, I wasted thousands of pounds on failure after failure because I didn't understand how crucial Traffic is in any successful online business. All my money had been poured into black hole websites that no one ever visited.

    You NEED targeted traffic in order to make money.

    In fact, I might as well even put it more simply:

    Traffic = Money

    Remember this one thing and you'll be fine. Sure, it sounds easy, and yet so few business actually live by this rule.

    I spend quite a bit of time on TWF, and I see this same pattern over and over again. It's perfectly astounding. People build shops, invest money in stock, and then they come onto TWF to ask why their business isn't a success. They say something like, “Hey, I built an online shop and I still haven't made a sale. What's going on?!?”

    As soon as I read this I seriously want to scream at my computer: “What?!? Have you even installed Google Analytics? If you did, you'd have probably already noticed that the only person who has actually visited your site is you!”

    You see, even if your shop looks like it was built by a teenager in the early 90s, all you have to do is get 100 targeted visitors everyday, and you'll make money. Sure, it would be better to have a great looking site, but it simply won't matter at all until you have some traffic to work with!

    The actual numbers tend to vary, but on average you can expect anywhere from 2 to 3 out of every 100 visitors to turn into a sale, assuming that everything else is in line. Basically, if you have decent products, a good looking website, and 100 visitors every day, those 2 or 3 sales are almost guaranteed.

    If your average profit per sale is 20 GBP, this means that you'll make 40-60 GBP every day. Sounds pretty good right? Now imagine what would happen if you were able to generate 500 visitors every day! We're talking 200 to 300 GBP, EVERY DAY. And this is all a result of driving traffic to your shop. Are you starting to see the importance of this One Thing that I've been talking about?

    Now don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that you shouldn't work on optimizing your site, because making things look nice and making your layout more intuitive is sure to boost your conversion rate, maybe even from 2% to 5%.

    But a 3% increase on zero visitors is still zero!!!

    First, get some traffic going, and then worry about how to boost your conversion rate later.

    Okay, Andrew. I get it; I know that I need to increase the traffic to my site, but

    How Do I Do It?

    The biggest problem with Traffic, and perhaps the reason why so many people neglect it, is that there are so many ways to work on it. So many, in fact, that people tend to get a little bit confused. There isn't one obvious means that you can use to boost traffic. Rather, there are several different methods, none of which are fully sufficient on their own.

    To get an idea of what I'm talking about, just look at this list of things that people often use to try to boost their traffic:

    Search Engines
    Pay Per Click Advertising
    Pay Per View Advertising
    Video Advertising
    Banner Ads
    Social Networks
    Twitter
    Facebook
    Affiliate Networks
    Buzz Marketing
    And more...


    And the first thing that you've probably noticed about this list is that it's very, very LONG. This is exactly what makes people feel overwhelmed by the whole question of Traffic. So much so, that this is usually the point at which they give up and concentrate on something else. But not you! Oh no, I've got a different plan for you.

    You Need a Plan!

    There's no reason to use trial and error for months in order to figure out what works when it comes to traffic, especially when so many people have already demonstrated the right way to do things. There's absolutely no reason to reinvent the wheel, especially when new breakthroughs are being made in the realm of traffic every day.

    This is a very important moment in the history of online shops, and frankly, I've been waiting for it for over two years! For the first time, someone has actually developed a comprehensive Traffic plan that I can use and pass along to my newsletter readers. It's called the

    Traffic Ultimatum

    Created by the well known entrepreneur, George Brown, Traffic Ultimatum is THE premium resource for the traffic generation. It's packed with real, true to life, strategies and examples, not to mention hours upon hours of instructional videos.

    I bought this course only a couple of weeks ago and I've already seen an increase in traffic all across my business. And this is only the beginning. I rarely recommend outside products, so you know that I would only tell you about this program if I had used it myself. I really believe that this is the solution to our traffic problems.

    Some of the strategies that George shares in this course are SIMPLY INCREDIBLE!!! If you don't believe me, just check out the FREE YouTube strategy that George shares on his website. This is the one tactic that can truely push your business into a full-time venture, and he's giving it away for FREE!

    !!! Attention UK Sellers !!!

    I just want to emphasize that this opportunity is ESPECIALLY important for UK sellers. This is THE opportunity to dominate your niche.

    The few early tests that I have done with the Traffic Ultimatum have shown excellent results in the UK market. And since we tend to be about five years behind the main stream US market, you can put yourself way ahead of the competition by using these traffic techniques now before they are adopted by the majority of UK sellers. This is a sure fire way to start seeing results in your niche in a matter of weeks.

    Just using George's YouTube tactic, I've attracted several thousands of targeted visitors within the last two weeks, just by using this method three times! It really works, and it WILL make you money. And I haven't even yet begun to reap the long term benefit of improved search engine visibility which will result from all of the back links that I'm getting with this method.

    All in all, if you're working in the UK market, you definitely cannot afford to pass this up. If you really implement these tactics, you'll see a real change for the better. There's no reason not to boost your traffic as high as you can.

    After Your Purchase...

    As soon as you get the Traffic Ultimatum course, feel free to send me an email or post a thread on the EAB forum telling me what you think. I'd be happy to give my advice or opinion on the subject. In fact, if the interest is great enough, we can start a dedicated forum on the Traffic Ultimatum.

    I'm not sure if you realize this or not, but courses of this nature don't come by very often. The only other comprehensive traffic course that I've ever seen was John Reese's Traffic Secrets, and that sold out years ago. You DON'T want to miss this opportunity because quality insight into the nature of internet marketing is hard to find and rarely sold for so cheap.

    You know what you need to do!

    Until Next Time,
