The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me  ( SuccessDigest) because the LORD has anointed me (SuccessDigest) to bring good news to the poor; He has sent me (SuccessDigest) to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; Isaiah 61:1.

The above scripture is what the Lord has commanded us to do for Nigerians; the question is: will you be among the people to tap into this latest money-making system?

What is CMSDone4You about?

You can sell any of your services or products for between N500 – N5000, which means you have a lot of advantages to make much money if you have a good product or service to offer, because the platform has buyers waiting for you to list your products or services.

10 Important Things That Will Make Your Gig To Stand Out
1) Good Username

• Choose a username relevant to your products and services. This is very important as it can help your customers understand what your business on CMSDone4You is all about. Of course, you can opt in for a business type username or even a favorite username that you use on other websites, but it makes it easier to find when you incorporate what you are offering in gigs as your username. Try to be as professional as possible with your CMSDone4You username while staying friendly and inviting.


2) Beautiful Photo

• Get a nice photo for your profile avatar. One of the things that you will want to show to your customers is that you have a "face" with your business. You can use a photo of yourself or a graphic that represents what you are doing.

3) Professional Profile

• Complete your profile page. This is something that is very important to go along with your profile picture that you have uploaded.

Ensure that you have taken the time to add at least a few sentences about yourself or your business that you plan on having on CMSdone4you. This will basically make your account seem like it has had more time put into it than simply creating the account and listing things to sell.

4) Your Headline Must Be Unique And Attractive
Your headline is what will attract the buyer to click on your offer; make sure that you have an attractive headline; if your headline is not catchy there is every tendency that the buyer will not click on your offer, even if you have the best offer. 

5) You Must Structure Your Description To Look Professional
Description is what your buyer will look at to really get the details of what you are offering, make sure that your description explains the benefit that buyers will get when they buy your offer.

6) You Must Look For A Unique Image To Use On Your Gig.
Pictures talk a lot about your services; look for pictures that relate to what you are rendering.

7) You Must Add A Tag That Relates To The Type Of Gig You Are Offering
A tag is very important when creating your gig, because these are the keywords that people will use when searching for your products or services; make sure you add keywords that relate to your services and products.

8) You Must Make Sure You Deliver Your Gig On Time.
When someone places an order for your gig make sure you deliver it on time, as this will give you a positive review and make people to trust you more.

9) State A Realistic Delivery Period
You do not want to tell your customers that you can finish something that takes a week to complete in only one day. Even if you are offering something that takes only minutes to complete, it is important to give yourself a realistic period of time to complete the order properly. You never know when something could come up and cause you some delays which would result in the buyer leaving negative feedback for failure to deliver within a specified period of time.

10) Provide Clear Instructions To Buyers
The clearer your instructions are to your buyers, the faster they can provide any information that you need, so that you can complete your order on time.

All of this information is important for those gigs which require the details to get the job done.

It is important for the seller to give these instructions right away to buyers as well, so that the buyer is not over describing what they want through messages with the seller.

How To Get Traffic To Your Gig
One of the most difficult things to achieve online is getting traffic, and without traffic, you can’t make money online.

Let me share some of the best traffic strategies that are working now.

1. Blogging
Yes, don’t be surprised that I mentioned blogging: you can use your blog to promote your gig; all you need do is to write a short review about your gig in your blog and promote it to your list, or on Facebook.

Check out what Jide Ogunsanya did with his gig here http://www.ogbongeblog.com/2013/03/cmsdone4youcom-nigerias-alternative-to.html: this guy will go far with this strategy, so you can also do the same thing.

2. Video Marketing
This is still one of the easiest ways of getting traffic to your gig.

How Does It Work?
All you need to do is to create a video review about the gig you are promoting, upload your video to www.youtube.com, making sure your video title has the keyword that has to do with your niche.

The more exposure you get for your video the better it becomes for you. More and more people see your video, like it and pass it on. Once it starts getting shared, you can expect great things to happen.

Think about how many times you have seen YouTube videos on the national news for example, even if the subject material is not always the best.

You should take action and start promoting your video in different ways. Here are some examples of how you can do that:


    Post links to your video in forums
    Embed your video in your website or blog
    Add your comment to other blogs and post your link also
    Email your video link to your friends and family
    Share it on sites like Facebook and Twitter

Target the buyer’s keywords and add high quality backlinks; this will help you to rank it on Google’s first page.

3.  Social Media Marketing
You can use social media to drive lots of traffic to your gig, and it is one of the best ways to get traffic because a lot of people are now on social media.

Get an account and set up a profile page on the major social networking sites, such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, just to name a few.

Put your picture on your profile page, and include a little bit about yourself, your interests and provide a link back to your website.

Congratulations! You're taking your first step towards link-building!

Keep in mind though; you are engaging in Social media here and not Business media, so try to refrain from throwing your business into people's faces. Instead, find like-minded people that share your interests.  Engaging them in a conversation, discussing what they want to talk about. Finding out from them what they really want. Allowing them to discover that your product or service is exactly what they are looking for.

With this strategy, you get people to trust you and be able to do business with you.

4.  Forum Marketing
Forum marketing is also a very powerful way to get traffic to your gig, but you need to do it with caution.

Follow the simple steps below to establish yourself in any forum you find yourself.

Introduce Yourself
When you enter a forum, do not immediately engage people and start posting your own opinions. You need to introduce yourself first so that people will get to know you. This will also be an opportunity for people to welcome you.

 Avoid Personal Drama
Drama is not unique in forums. Sometimes people's opinions clash and this sparks drama. It is alright to post your opinion; just make sure that you do not personally attack the other members of the forum. This will give you a bad reputation.

Be Helpful
Forums are places where you can ask for advice. If someone needs some advice or needs a question answered and you happen to be knowledgeable about it; make sure that you help out. This will help you also to become known as a resource person.

Do Not Self-Promote
You can occasionally mention the link to your personal profile but you have to do this in a non-promotional way. There are forums that ban members who constantly promote themselves. When you have built credibility, people will just seek you out.

There are so many benefits that you can get from using forum marketing. You can test the market, get recommendations, build a network and generate direct sales. However, you need to bear in mind that forum marketing is not an instant answer to your marketing needs. Be patient. Take time to build your rapport with the community. In time you will see the result of your hard work. Forum marketing will have better results if you use this in conjunction with the other marketing tools that help generate traffic to your website.

5. Emailing a List:
If you own a list, this can become one of your greatest assets over time. There are no overheads - unlike PPC (Pay Per Click) marketing - and you can create a huge rush of sales every time you send an email.

 Creating an email list absolutely takes longer than most of the other methods here, but this is one of the best methods of generating traffic to whatever you choose to advertise. By using an auto responder like www.cmsautomaticlistbuilder.com, you can attract these visitors back to your website again.

There's a study that was done a while ago that says people need to see an invitation 7-10 times before they'll actually buy or join what you're promoting. Knowing how often to send emails to your list is also important. The key here is to add value and send regular free content in between asking them to buy something. Send something free that has value, and at the end you will be able to sell to them successfully.

6. Paid Ads:

For immediate traffic to your site; the best way is to buy it. It's also the most expensive way as opposed to the more natural and organic ways. By buying traffic (Pay Per click - or PPC), you can target the people already looking for the product or service you're providing.

There are high traffic sites you can buy quality traffic that will convert well for you. Some of them are Nigerian newspaper websites - these sites have a lot of traffic that convert well.

You can also use Facebook to buy PPC to your gig.

The next step after paying for traffic is to monitor your results. You can track the number of hits from various sources to focus on those ads that are producing sales. Every type of advertising must have a tracking system with good accuracy. Just keep the ads that produce for you and delete the others.

You don’t have any excuse not to make money online because CMSDone4You has simplified the process of making money online - there is no PayPal  ‘wahala’;  you don’t  need to start applying for any card in order for you to be paid: when you make any money from the sales of your products or services,  all you need do is to request for your money, and it will be paid into your bank account.
