Now that Boss has laid out a detailed plan of action for MDCM over the course of the next 90 days, we the members should be thinking in terms of what we are going to do to help going forward.
One of the primary things we can do individually is understand the angle of which MDCM is coming from. Understand the premise of what we purport as our business model. And from that understanding, we should work feverishly to help carry out the business objective.
MDCM's business plan is to make money by establishing an informed network of our intentions to make money from the very network we form.
What makes our network informed is that we foster the awareness of how online traffic is the key to making money online to our MDCM network. What we do at MDCM is we establish our business by sticking to the principles of online relevancy- networks and traffic. Everything online is about network and traffic. Traffic across networks, networks that facilitate traffic. What MDCM realized is that we could build the network and let that be the traffic.
What we're learning is that it's best to build an informed network as opposed to just hoping everyone gets it. The more of the network that affirms to what we're doing, and believes in the vision of the network, then the more the network is secure.
At MDCM we understand that our business is one that's still in motion and as such MDCM is a business that many are not used to seeing in stride. That's ok, as long as anyone is willing to learn just what distinguishes MDCM as different. By learning what makes MDCM different and adhering to our business model, we can learn together how online marketing works and we can make money as a network in the process.
For example, what makes our method for making money so plausible is the fact of how so many other business models go through other means to drive traffic to offers. Essentially, those other businesses are trying to do what we state that we are doing- drive traffic to offers by establishing a network- but they are doing it in a manner in which isn't designed or intended to share the revenue to any members.
For an example, take a look at the blog below as an example how creative marketers get in driving traffic to offers. The traffic that comes to this blog can be seen as a network if taken within the context of "visitors". A network of visitors to that blog.
What we want to pay close attention to as marketers, however, is how creative the blog gets in the placement of ads around barely-skim-the-surface content. The blog uses the "5 Things" topic approach as the initial lure. Then the blog dispenses short info between each number. The blog is relevant here only to show the degree the makers of the blog go to draw more visitors to the blog. The point of this blog is to get visitors to the ads we see on the blog itself. Notice how you spend more time scrolling ads than content. The lesson here is what marketers go through to get visitors to ads and offers.
The reason why is because the ads on those blogs are how the author gets paid. The more traffic to the blog the more likely someone will click an offer. Now imagine that the effort of what that blog does in terms of back-door creation of a method to get more people to clicking on offers, imagine MDCM coming through the front door with our intentions and simply informing our network that we're going to do what blogs such as this one is doing, except we are going to form our membership to be aware of our intentions, and from that awareness we only ask our members to help us tap into even more traffic beyond our immediate membership base, because that's how a tank of online marketing sharks feed off the cyberspace seas beckoning for traffic across networks.
Think about it.
