T7DBPCnewversionWe’ve been working for months updating Jesse’s book – The 7-Day Back Pain Cure. We took all the feedback we received over the past two years since its original launch and packed it all into this new addition. There are 100 new pages, new chapters, more treatments, more detail on existing conditions, etc…

The new printed copies just arrived and we’re stoked with how it came out.  Our goal was to pack so much more information into it that even people who got the original, would still want the new, expanded and updated version.

Normally, partners earn 50% of the $5.95 shipping charge, but during the week long promotion push, we’re going to up the commission rate to 100% of the revenue — that’s $5.95 for every order referred!

Stay tuned!

In the coming days I’m going to tell you much more about this exciting push, including new creatives and great, new landing pages!

101 Back Pain Relief Tricks Set for Big Push!

October 7th, 2011

101BPTips_pdfAs mentioned in my last post, the new 101 Back Pain Relief Tricks has gone through its extensive testing and refining process and it’s now ready for launch!

And what better way to have our valued affiliate partners launch this new winner than with a big commission bump all next week!

That’s right, from midnight Sunday, October 9th, until Monday the 17th, we’ve increased the commission on this product from 50%/$8.50 per sale to 75%/$12.75 per referred sale. Plus we have some nice upsells with this offer that will increase your commissions even more!

“Secret” Roll-Out Performed Beyond Expectations!

You may have already seen sales in your affiliate area, as we’ve sold it to many of our customers. That’s because over the past month, we’ve been testing the heck out of it and improving conversions constantly. We didn’t want to have you promote this until we were sure we not only had a winner, but had also fine-tuned every aspect — we tested different copy, landing page styles, upsells, etc..

It converted very well to our own list and we then rolled it out secretly to a few of our partners to have them mail their list. The results have been awesome. The offer is converting nearly as well to non-back pain lists as it converted to ours.

Hot Promos are Ready for You to Use!

Our First Company Meeting at Our New Offices!

September 20th, 2011
The historic Maltex building in the heart of Burlington, Vermont overlooking Lake Champlain is the new location for The Healthy Back Institute.

The historic Maltex building in the heart of Burlington, Vermont overlooking Lake Champlain is the new location for The Healthy Back Institute.

Last week, we had our first company meeting at our new offices in Burlington, Vermont. A few of us work from other locations in the U.S., so it was a nice occasion to have everyone together.

meetingpic

Attending the meeting were, from left to right, Steve Hefferon, Steve Coombes, Eva Klein, Keith Cannone (standing), Ashley Lane, Heather Cannone, Dennys Passeto and Jim Gribble. Not shown is Jesse who took the pic!

Us out-of-towners arrived on Wednesday. It was a beautiful, sunny and warm day. The University of Vermont is in Burlington, so we saw a number of students walking to and from in summer clothes.

protestaWe passed a group that was protesting some environmental issue out in front of the Hilton – one of the few representatives of corporate America in Burlington. If you look closely at the picture, you can see they are painting one of the students with green paint. There was a line of security in front of the hotel, but clearly, this group was having fun making their political point. BTW, there are NO fast food chain restaurants in Burlington – just great local restaurants who make a point to serve foods grown and raised locally.

As it turned out, this was probably the last hurrah for summer, because a cold front moved in the next day and by Saturday, they were expecting a record low temperature overnight that would drop below freezing! Such is life in northern Vermont in the fall!

Exciting Happenings = Big Affiliate Commissions!

During our two day meeting we covered a number of exciting things that are happening now and we identified and prioritized our initiatives for the fourth quarter. Here’s a few highlights:

101BPTips_pdfInitial launch of the new, 101 Back Pain Relief Tricks, is underway and results are very promising! This is a 100% digital download product that is expected to sell for just $17. We are confident that this new offer will become a highly effective way for us to attract new customers.

We are continuing to test a number of different promotions and landing pages, and even price points. When we feel we have an optimal winner, then we’ll release this to our affiliates to start promoting. We are anticipating this will occur in a couple weeks, so stay tuned!

This is just one of several new offers we are developing that are designed to deliver higher sales conversions based on lower price points. And to give each of these initiatives the best opportunity for success, we are making a heavy investment in a number of strong copywriters.

We are also aggressively working on new ways to increase conversions on our back-end products. This will mean more commissions for you without any effort on your part! The beauty of our affiliate program has always been the awesome back-end commissions you receive whenever your referrals purchase from us. You bring us the new customers with our free book and new 101 Back Pain Relief Tricks offers and we follow up with our back-end products. And with our foolproof, database tracking, even if your referrals purchase many months, or even years after you sign them up — you still receive commissions!

Staff Expansion — FOUR New Positions!

In order to meet our goals and objectives in the short and long term, we looking to fill the following positions:  Online Marketing Director, Marketing Manager, Editorial Director, and Executive Assistant/ Office Manager. Only the Office Manager is required to be on staff in Burlington. If you know anyone who may be a good fit, please don’t hesitate to let me know – email jim [at] losethebackpain [dot] com.

Is There a Penalty for Duplicate Content?

July 1st, 2011

Just the other day, a colleague of mine said to me, “Did you know that Google is penalizing the original publisher of an article that’s been duplicated by others?”

This both puzzled and intrigued me, so I did some research and the overwhelming consensus is that there is no such thing as a “duplicate content penalty.” At least, not in the way most people use the word ‘penalty’ regarding SEO rankings.

Many different factors result in duplicate content, but one statement is true for them all: Duplicate content doesn’t exist unless there’s a link to it. So if sites are deemed to have duplicate content then it’s because there’s at least one link to the same content at different URLs.

Rest Easy, Serious Penalties for Duplicate Content is a Myth!

Duplicate content has been and always will be a natural part of the Web. It’s nothing to keep you up at night. If your site has some duplicate content for whatever reason, your site is not going to fall victim of the wrath of the Google gods. They’re not going to banish your entire website from ever showing up for relevant searches.*

That said, a penalty of sorts, does exist, but only under certain situations. Examples that can get you penalized for duplicate content are:

- If you’re leaching or scraping information from other sites and republishing it without adding any additional value to the information.

- If you create multiple pages.. subdomains.. or domains with substantially duplicate content.

It’s really about link popularity – that’s what suffers from duplicate content. For instance, if an article has five links into it and that page of content only loads at one URL, then all five of those links will flow their link popularity – a positive SEO outcome. But imagine that same article has five links pointing to it at five different URLs. Each of those duplicate URLs for that same piece of content now get a single link’s worth of passed link popularity – not so hot!

When it comes to your participation in our affiliate program, it’s preferred, and very much encouraged, that you link to one of our many back pain articles rather than republish them. BTW, if no affiliate link exists to a particular article, then contact me and I’ll create the affiliate link for you.

Most importantly, if you do want to republish one of our articles, it’s important that you add more value to the article. Rewrite it with your voice and use an ‘angle’ aimed at what your audience is most interested in.

100% Commission All Next Week!

June 17th, 2011

I need your help…

We have recently made some significant improvements to our ‘7 Day Back Pain Cure’ landing page and we have more that we’d like to test.

Yeah, that’s right… Through some pig-headed persistence, we were able to make a huge improvement in the conversion of our 7 Day Back Pain Cure book offer. I shared our performance increase in the email I sent to you – it’s so impressive, I really can’t share the actual numbers here in our public blog!

So to celebrate our huge conversion increase and to also run some additional tests on even more new promotional elements we’re running right now, we’re going to give you 100% commission on this offer all of next week.

Let me repeat what I just said, “We’re going to give you 100% commission on the book offer for 7 days – from Monday, June 20th through Sunday the 26th!

To help you to maximize your earnings during this big push, I’m providing you with three new, yet proven effective, promotional emails that you can use to blow-out this offer. By using one of these new emails, your audience will be assured of seeing something fresh!

Email #1 Is Your Job Killing Your Back? This email delivers some helpful stretching content and then has a soft pitch for the book offer. It uses an advertorial style, so does not come off as too ‘salesy’.

Email #2 Q&A Email This approach has worked surprisingly well for us. Kudos to Michael Lovitch for giving us this idea.

Email #3 Three Big Fat Lies Email This email has worked very well for us with cold traffic. I have attached the actual HTML code that you can just plug into the source code of your email client.

Here’s your link to use with any of these 3 emails. Remember to replace the place holder YOURAFFILIATECODE in the URL in these emails with your affiliate code.

http://www.losethebackpain.com/aff/index.php?p=YOURAFFILIATECODE&w=7DayCure

All three of these emails are available to you through your Infusionsoft affiliate interface. Go here: https://gethealthy.infusionsoft.com/Affiliate

Also, please keep in mind, the most effective promotions are the ones written in your own voice. After all, your audience knows and trusts you. The emails below can simply serve as templates to get your own creative juices flowing!

Good luck with the upcoming push and I look forward to cutting some big checks to all of you in a couple weeks! Of course, don’t hesitate to let us know if you need any help at all getting this out next week.

Subject line: Is Your Job Killing Your Back?

Dear FIRSTNAME,

If you’ve ever suffered from back pain, the problem most likely has nothing to do with your back.

Let me explain…

In today’s world, our bodies are constantly contorted into positions that are abnormal for us.

Whether it’s working at your desk for 8… 9… 10 hours a day, commuting to work or relaxing and watching television, your body isn’t meant to stay in the “sitting” position for very long.

What’s the result? Your body becomes misaligned… specifically your hips.

After a prolonged period of time, your hips start to pull on the tendons and ligaments that connect it to your back. And this pulling is what causes the sharp or dull back pain the majority of Americans who suffer from.

If you were to go to a regular doctor, you’d probably be told to do some stretches to “fix” your back.

But there’s a problem with this solution.

Most of these stretches are designed to loosen your joints. And the key factor that these doctors don’t know about is that you don’t want loose joints. You want them to be tight. Tight joints mean stable and strong joints. And help prevent injury in the first place.

That’s why I recommend the following stretches to my clients. It helps realign your hips to relieve stress on your back, but also works to help keep your joints nice and tight to help avoid injury in the future.

Here are some stretches from my friends over at the Healthy Back Institute that you’ll want to perform daily to avoid back pain:

• Shoulder Stretch: You need to stretch and develop these muscles because they are very susceptible to injury. And tight shoulder muscles contribute to back and neck pain, especially if your head and shoulders droop forward.

How To: Stand in an open doorway. Raising your arm to a 90-degree angle with palm facing out, press your hand and shoulder against the wall and doorjamb. You should feel the wall against your armpit. Slowly increase the tension as you push forward. Hold for a 10 count. Then repeat with the other arm.

• Hip Flexors: You need to do this stretch, particularly if you sit all day at work. Sitting all day puts pressure on the hip flexor muscles. This is a major cause of minor lower back pain. Stretching your hip flexors muscles several times a week will prevent this kind of lower back pain.

How To: Stand in a modified runner stance, with right foot forward and left foot back, feet flat on floor. Put your hands on your hips and keep your back and hips in straight alignment. Push forward with your hips, while maintaining your erect posture. Slowly, push your hips forward only until you feel a comfortable level of tension. Hold for a 10 count. Switch sides by reversing your leg stance and repeat.

Give these a try. They work for me. Start off every other day and go from there. Consistency’s the key.

There are other steps you can take to overcome back pain and stiffness naturally, too.

In fact, Jesse Cannone – a top fitness trainer and co-founder of the Healthy Back Institute – has written a book called The 7-Day Back Pain Cure. It shows you how to get to the root of back pain problems and fix them without drugs, injections, or surgery. It also suggests numerous measures you can take to prevent back pain in the future.

It’s not an eBook or anything like that… it’s a real book and it’s for sale on Amazon and at Barnes and Noble, but don’t go buy it because if you go to his website right now you can get a free copy. You just pay a small shipping fee…

But it gets even better… a portion of your shipping fee is donated to one of two great charities: Habitat for Humanity or Kiva.org – you choose.

Subject: Confused about back pain?
Hey <firstname>,

When it comes to pain, many people are confused. One person says do one thing, your doctor says do something different, and your friends say to try something else.

So today, I’d like to end the confusion with a question I recently received from a subscriber…

Question:

“I’ve spent hundreds of dollars trying to get rid of my back pain over the past few years. I’ve wasted my money on all kinds of gadgets, doctor visits, bulky equipment and pain pills.

I’m about to throw in the towel. My doctors say I just need a fewmore visits, so I go a few more times. The pain continues. I buy a machine online which says my pain will go away after using it.

The pain continues. Everything I try, the pain continues.

I’m desperate, and hoping you have some kind of resource you can point me to that will help.”

My Response:

Thanks for the question. And thankfully I think I can help!

There’s a book which was written by a great guy I know – Jesse Cannone. He’s the owner of the Healthy Back Institute and is the ONLY guy I trust when it comes to getting rid of any pain I’m having.

Best part is – he’s actually giving his book away for FREE right now on his website <<– Insert your affiliate code into the link here

Here’s why I love his book.

Most people try to sell you whatever their latest gadget or widget claims to help. Most doctors try to help, but as you’ve probably noticed… only give you temporary relief.

In Jesse’s book, he explains WHY that is. Now I’m not the back pain expert like he is, so here’s the short version.

Pain develops in your body through several sources. Some of those sources include the diet you’re eating, your mental health, how much stress you’re under, and other lifestyle factors.

But the one thing most people don’t understand is how much the muscle imbalances in your body create the pain you’re feeling.

This is something you’ve probably never heard, but Jesse explains it in his book. And hey… if nothing else is working… why not give the book a read? It’s pretty short, and very readable. It only took me a few hours to finish it and it absolutely changed my life.

You can grab a copy of his book for FREE here <<– Insert your affiliate code into the link here

Here are a few more reasons I LOVED his book.

#1 – Because his philosophy is based on a balanced approach, if you follow his advice you’ll also notice that losing weight becomes much easier, you’ll be happier, and even have more energy.

#2 – I don’t know about you, but I hate reading boring books that seem to go on forever. I was shocked at how fast and easy I was able to read Jesse’s book, because it was written in a very reader-friendly style.

#3 – At the end of the book, Jesse actually gives you his suggestion for which back pain treatment will work best for you, depending on the condition you’re suffering from. This section in itself is worth its weight in gold!

Anyway, all I can say is that I really hope you check it out. It’s free, and it’s a great book.

P.S. By the way, The 7 Day Back Pain Cure has already helped over  100,000 people reduce or eliminate their back pain. I don’t know how long he’s going to give it away for free, so you’d better get to his site now before he decides to take it down.

“Have not gone to the Chiropractor and

I am virtually pain free…”

I’ve been doing the exercises 2-3 times daily for over a month now and have not gone to the Chiropractor and I am virtually pain free.

“Pain Decreased By 50%!”

Steve Munk“I am a 62 year-old guy in fine general health. Since March of 2004, I have had symptoms that I can only compare to having been kicked in the behind by a mule. That pain in the butt then took off toward my ankle and made standing or walking a living torture. I started with chiropractic, then orthopedic surgeons, then physical therapists, then massage therapy, more orthopods, anti-inflamatories and lost all hope for ever recovering.


Then an internet search took me to your website, and ever skeptical, I was desperate.

Less than a week later, I watched your video and determined my course of action (still skeptical, of course);

One Month later, my pain had decreased by 50%.

Why NO certified practitioner had been able to truly diagnose and isolate the problem, and the CURE, I will never know. What happened in Med School??

You guys at LTBP should be teaching courses in Med school!!! Can’t thank you enough.”

Jim Gribble

Hi Everybody! I’m Jim Gribble, the new Affiliate Program Manager here at The Healthy Back Institute. First of all, don’t be alarmed, Dennys is still here at the company and will continue to work with our Joint Venture partners. But from now on, I’m going to be the main point of contact for our valued affiliates.

First, a little background about myself… I spent the majority of my professional life as a ‘traditional’ direct marketer. For 15 years or so, I was on staff at some of the largest and most successful direct-to-consumer companies. I launched and managed a number of consumer products that were mostly sold through direct mail campaigns. In fact, I spent a number of years promoting health-related publications and products.

Eventually, I started my own company called LinkProfits, where I have provided affiliate program management services since 1999. So I’m pretty experienced with affiliate marketing as well.

Hopefully, you’ll find my combination of skill sets to be valuable to you as you participate in our affiliate program! My job is to support your efforts, so please don’t hesitate to let me know if I can be of any service to you! Email me: jim (at) losethebackpain (dot) com

Spring Heal-n-Soothe Contest Results

First a big thank you to all those who participated in the spring Heal-n-Soothe push. We managed to give away just shy of 2,000 bottles, well exceeding our goals.

We learned so much from all of our new creative that we rolled out as well as our split testing. More on that in a second…

But First… the commission surprise…

Dennys didn’t want anyone to be left out of the rewards, even if you have a relatively small audience, so he decided to reward those affiliates who made efforts but didn’t quite hit the minimum threshold to receive a bonus.

Since the minimum threshold was 50 bottles to receive the $100 bonus, we gave a $25 bonus to anyone who did 10 bottles or more. This is, of course, in addition to the 100% commission and the ongoing recurring commissions that these customers generated for all of you.

Below is the final top 10 leader board recognizing the big dogs but also the guys who made an effort to support us…

1. MG – $1000 Bonus
2. RP – $300 Bonus
3. JB – $300 Bonus
4. JA – $300 Bonus
5. BR – $100 Bonus
6. FM – $100 Bonus
7. JR – $25 Bonus
8. MP – $25 Bonus
9. NN – $25 Bonus
10. IF – $25 Bonus

Juicy conversion findings…

1 – During this push we tested this banner (shown at reduced size) to cold traffic and it has been getting a great CTR and also a solid conversion rate. I highly recommend you put this up on your site to replace any banner you’re currently using on your site, blog, etc… to promote Heal-n-Soothe.
Here’s your link to use with it (be sure to replace YOURAFFILIATECODE with your CODE:
http://www.losethebackpain.com/aff/index.php?p=YOURAFFILIATECODE&w=5mostHNS

2 – Here’s another banner that is also working very well (again, shown at reduced size). Be sure to use this link with it:
http://www.losethebackpain.com/aff/index.php?p=YOURAFFILIATECODEw=top12natural

3 – We were extremely surprised with how well this advertorial performed. And the click throughs from the special email (pasted below) we used were tremendous and the conversion rate was very impressive. I highly recommend plugging the email below into your Auto-responder series. It delivers great content and will be a nice source of income for you. As with the banners above, the links in the email below contain the placeholder (YOURAFFILIATECODE) which needs to be replaced with your affiliate code.

Even though this push is over, the evergreen commissions on this offer are still very nice so keep on plugging this offer whenever you can.

We charge $10 for shipping so in the top tiers above, you
can see that we’re paying MORE THAN 100% COMMISSION.

We go in the hole pretty good on the front end to pay you
a nice chunk and to put a bottle of Heal-n-Soothe in your
customers hands for them to try.

You then receive $10 for every month that the customer sticks.
Our average stick rate is 3.5 months.

So let’s just recap… that’s $5 to give it away, plus a
hefty bonus, and then $35 average per customer over the next
few months for them sticking on our auto-ship program.
Again, 3.5 is our average; some are more, some are less.

With the way we have structured this contest, everyone has
a chance to receive the bonuses. Not just the big boys.
If you are a big player, you know 1000 bottles is
no big deal for you to GIVE AWAY!

And that’s the thing here, you’re not selling them on buying
it.  You’re selling them on TRYING IT FOR FREE!

Not only will you be getting the bonus commission on the
people you send to the page next week, but you will also be
receiving credit on the leads already on our list whom we
give free bottles away to ourselves in our promotions.
We’re going to count those towards your total as well.

We have already written and tested the creative that sells!
We have had partners pushing near double digit conversion
with the attached creative.

Therefore, block out the 10th – 16th for
“Inflammation Awareness week” ;-)

The landing page has been split tested multiple times to come up
with the winning combo.

August Commissions & HNS contest results

September 2nd, 2010

Hey guys, the results are in!  We had another fantastic month due to your efforts.

A huge thank you to all who participated by mailing out to their lists.

I will keep the bonus recipients names anonymous as per their requests.  The bonuses will be added to your respective checks.

You guys moved 1761 bottles of HealnSoothe.  You will see the bulk of the commissions from this when people get dinged for their first paid bottle towards the end of September.

As for all August commissions…

I’ve closed out the month of August for accounting in Infusionsoft so your August commissions will show as paid if you look at your  current(September) ledger even though you won’t receive your payment until the 15th of July.  You will receive a payment if you earned $25 or more in commissions.

I’d love to be able to tell you exactly how much you earned  but Infusionsoft does not yet have that capability.  Therefore, you’ll have to log in for yourself and find out.

To see what you earned go to ‘Commissions Generated’ link in your affiliate area and select last months date range(1st-31st).  The ‘Net Commissions Earned’ is the amount you will be receiving on the 15th.

Again, checks and PayPal payments will be released on the 15th of this month.  Checks will be sent to U.S. Affiliates and PayPal to International affiliates.

Thanks for all your hard work and being a valued member of our affiliate program.  please let me know if there is anything else that I can do to help.

Dedicated to multiplying your income,
