Agenda Items:

1.  The “Plan”

2.  Client Site

3.  Wizard Update

4.  What’s Next, Phil’s Rant, Thanks

1.  The “Plan” – Client acquisition steps – reiterated:

A. Enter Target Clients - develop and enter into the ALG system a list of clients you want to try trial leads with.

B. Mail Postcards or Letters to Target Clients - to introduce yourself and your biz.

C. Generate Trial Leads - generate some leads in the niche to send as trials.

D.  Client Receives Emails - trial leads are linked to the personalized client page on the client blog.

2.  Client Site - Phil went over some of the improvements to the Client Site Control Panel and showed screenshots of the changes.

They include:

a.  Users now have the ability to sort their various lead lists within ALG via a one-click sorting button.

b.  The PayPal button in the Payments section is now fully operational.

c.  Invoices can now be compiled and sent to clients in PDF format.

3.  Wizard Update - Phil again explained how you can now specify which of the four main graphics files are displayed on specific pages.  Those files are: header, footer e-cover and PDF report.

He showed a screenshot of the Blog Wizard, with the Settings drop-down menu.

The forms manager has been restructured.  Forms are maintained and managed through individual blogs.  He explained how this works and went over the various screens users will see.

He also added “Shared” and “Lead Type” columns (now sortable) to make things more organized and managable for ALG members and clients.

He also again went over settings within the Blog Manager Page Details screen as well as the purpose and use of the custom ALG Wordpress plugins.

4.  What’s Next, Phil’s Rant, Thanks –

a.  What’s Next - Phil again reminded members to have two domains for their Lead Gen business.  One for the lead capture site and the other for the client access to the leads.

Phil will meet with all members one-on-one in the next few days and he’ll help us get the final pieces in place.

If you haven’t already, research and enter into ALG a list of potential clients you want to try trial leads with.

Generate postcards or letters to mail to potential clients.  You can use the built-in list export function in ALG to prepare the list for a printing service, if you like.

Finally, begin to generate the leads via PPC, so you can offer the potential clients a few to try your service.

b.  Phil’s Rant - Phil said he’s going to help each one of us get up and running.  He said that it seems like things are too technical for some folks, so he’s going to help with that stuff.

c.  Thanks - Thanks for attending. See ya next week!

services.

After you’ve done that, you can generate the CSV list to be used with an online printing & mailing service, so that you can start contacting your prospective clients.

b.  Phil’s Rant - Your mission: get your domains prepared, install Wordpress on both domains, install the ALG WP-API plugin in each blog, schedule a 1 on 1 with Phil.

c.  Thanks - as always, thanks for sticking with ALG!  Lesser beings would have bailed by now! We’re definitely on the home stretch now…

Phil used the last few minutes of the meeting to do a live screen-sharing demo of a few things he had previously spoken about.

Agenda Items:

1.  Live Demo

1.  Live Demo - After some technical difficulties, Phil managed to get everyone on both Skype and YuuGuu, for a live walk through and demo of new ALG screen views and functions.

Due to the size difference between the recording screen and the display screen, some portions of the presentation are not fully visible during playback of the webinar.

Since we were all live on Skype, it was also an excellent Q and A session.
