Patric Chan is a 24 year old Internet Marketer living in Malaysia but working successfully with some of the biggest Internet marketing gurus and motivational speakers on earth-people such as Anthony Robbins, Joe Vitale, Willie Crawford, and Mark Joyner, to name a few.
He's living proof that anyone in the world can actually make money and a living online in Internet Marketing.
Listen closely to Patric's every word and learn how you, too, can duplicate his success:
"The first part to build a list successfully is you need to create the correct webpage.
Now there can many, many definitions of what correct is, so I'll define correct as what's been making money for me.
I know it works, because that's what I do everyday. The correct webpage that will help you make money fast is the 'direct response' webpage.
I'm not tslking about websites like amazon.com, ebay.com, kazaa.com and so on.
A direct response webpage only has one task to achieve: to get the visitor to take action.
In List Crusade's case, the action is to assure opt-ins to your mailing list so that you can build a list and sell to them in the future by adding value to them. Note here that we add value to them, not in the sense of getting our list bigger and bigger just to make money.
It's all about adding value, and when they see value in what you have to sell them, then they will buy.
The direct response web page should be as personal as possible. What I mean by being personal is to make it a very one person to one person, as opposed to a big company or industry.
For example, the webpage should have a person or personality that is dealing with you, not a company or a website. This means that it's supposed to be you and me, not we and you.
'We' is like a company kind of thing, but they're not actually doing business with a website, not at all. They're not doing business with a webpage, they're not doing it with an email, but they're doing business with you.
You might start your direct response webpage as if you are actually writing a personal letter. So in your direct response webpage, after the headline, you should start with 'Dear friend.'
Then you might want to put a date there...
Putting a date is done by inserting a little script or code so that you can actually have the today's date shown there. You can get scripts for free at hotscripts.com
And, lastly, you should actually end your whole direct response webpage with your signature.
It's like a personal letter, like you are actually writing to them.
So I repeat again, get a direct response webpage and get as personal as possible. There should be three ingredients there: you should begin with dear friend, then you should have a date, and you should have a signature. This will make you look as if like you are writing a letter instead.
That's the basic structure. And, there's so many people not even doing this basic structure.
A personal direct response webpage is normally a small, mini webpage. When I say mini webpage, normally you have two or three pages only. That's what a mini webpage is. One, is the main page. And then you have a second one and it's usually a thank you page. And sometimes there's a third page. Usually, it's a pop-up at the exit or the entrance. So you probably have three webpages. This is called a mini webpage structure."

* The secret factor to Internet Marketing success that's even more important than getting traffic to your website

Without a doubt, if you use Patric Chan's formula, you will achieve much greater success in Internet Marketing. How will that increased success change your life?
