I’m a Rapper – Why do I need an Auto Responder?

Growing up in NYC I remember being in the clubs watching the hot girl with the clip board walk around adding names to the Mailing List. She would work the bar, work the line outside, and even bust a move and the dance floor while she filled up her list. And the artists loved her for it.

At the end of the night they had a list of highly targeted leads. Leads that have already been exposed to the product are interested in what you put out, are actively looking for more.

Building you List the absolute foundation of Network Marketing, and you have been doing it for years.

The concept is there: these people are interested in me and I want to be able to reach them and keep in touch. I am here to show you how to take that one step further and turn you list into CASH MONEY.

Street Teams are the dinosaurs of Hip-Hop.
The text you send on the way to the club or the email you send leading up the event is going to make MORE of an Impact, stay in my phone longer than any flyer you hand me, no matter how big the boobs or how juicy the booty. At the end of the night there are more flyers in the street that with your people.

An Email Auto Responder is the equivalent of your Street Team. Each time someone subscribes to your list they will receive an automatic response to that request, welcoming them in to you list.

You then create a list of emails to be sent out to this list every few days. Intersperse those messages with Broadcast messages that you have written about current or upcoming events. It the average person needs to be exposed 6 or 7 times before they make a purchase. You do this with each email automatically 24/7, while you are asleep, or in the booth, or on stage.

What am I going to write about?
Are you serious? The average rap song has over 350 words, 10 catch phrases, 40 headlines and 3 concepts. Take a look back over your music and find topics of value. How many of your songs mention your past? How rough it was growing up and how much you knew things had to get better. That is the most universally marketable story in the world.

Everyone struggles and you found a way out. You are a leader. You provide value.
By using tolls like this to leverage the power of the internet your fan base will explode. Fans will be waiting for your emails so they can learn more about you. This is the key to building an online presence.


AWeber - Email Marketing Made Easy
Aweber is a great Auto responder and also the one I use. It’s is pretty much the standard. There is a small monthly fee but for the options and accessibility you are getting a deal. Other cheaper or free auto responders have some string attached….attached to ads and whole other junk that slows you down.

We need to keep operations streamlined, keep you focused. There is no time to waste. I want you making the most of every minute you spend online. In social media or working on your blog you need to get into a routine of Money Making Habits. Updating and sending broadcast messages to your list is an awesome way to spend time online, and work that writing muscle, instead of so much WorldStar. (no disrespect :) )

The Auto Responder is the equivalent of your Street Team, but on steroids.  Instead of posting flyers and pushing your CD on street corners you have strategic sales funnel in place that positions you as a leader and provide Value to the Marketplace.   It runs all night every night and never complains that their feet hurt.

Each time someone subscribes to your list they will receive an automatic response to that request, welcoming them in to you list.

You then create a list of emails to be sent out to this list every few days.  Intersperse those messages with broadcast messages that you have written about current or upcoming events. The average person needs to be exposed 6 or 7 times before they make a purchase.  You do this with each email.

Online systems like Aweber and Get Response allow you to separate messages by several days, manipulate multiple lists and build a database.

What am I going to write about?

Are you serious?  You write for a living.  The average rap song has over 450 words, 10 catch phrases, 40 headlines, and 3 concepts.  If you can take a look back over your music you will find topics of value.

Now all you need to do is highlight a common problem.

How many of your songs mention your past?   How rough it was growing up and how much you knew things had to get better.  That is the most universally marketable story ever told.

You have endured the pain and struggle.  You found a way out.  You are a leader.  You provide value.

Here is a video of Jim Rohn, He teaches that your success is directly related to how much value you bring to the marketplace.

YOU Will Be Judged by the Friends YOU Keep – How to Change My Circle of Influence

My father always said this to us growing up and it rings true here.

Think of the five people you spend most of your time with.
This is your Direct Circle of Influence. I am sure you will find that you all make around the same amount of money.

Now, look at someone you know that is making significantly more money that you, and think about their friends.
These people usually live in gated communities and shop in exclusive boutiques. They fly first class and stay at luxury resorts.

Circle of Influence

You will make similar decisions and assume a similar life and lifestyle. You will adopt the same mentality of the people you are with the most. This includes characters on TV, celebrities you follow, books, movies and yes, MUSIC.

I want to you to be consciously aware (unlike the majority of society), that thoughts, ideas, and attitudes are real things and that they are contagious.

Your mind set is fluid, ever changing with the ideas and interactions on a daily basis.

Successful people want to protect their minds from the thoughts of poverty and struggle that are held by the rest of common society because they know that all thoughts are contagious, and they have a burning desire to live un-common lives.

The rich get richer because they only invite and interact with other prosperous people.
