A sibling of his previous Magnetic Sponsoring book defining the fundamentals of online attraction marketing, Mike Dillard’s Building on a Budget uncovers several of the secrets behind the low to no-cost online marketing methods described in the course text.

Beyond “Building on a Budget”: Magnetic Sponsoring Online System

One of the other “perks” included helping enhance the information provided in Mike Dillard’s “Building on a Budget”, Magnetic Sponsoring or any associated Mike Dillard course is the insight, training and tracking you can access via the Magnetic Sponsoring Online system website.

Even though Magnetic Sponsoring Online is available as an affiliate program, the training information and funded proposal system meshes perfectly with any of the products further enhancing the “usability factor” for the information found in Building on a Budget or the other courses.

The following screen-capture image of the Magnetic Sponsoring Online Back Office website shows the different resources available to any registered user:

Each of the tabs listed at the top of the site facilitates access the detailed training resources and features designed to optimize both your education and use of the Magnetic Sponsoring Online as a complete funded proposal system.

In my opinion, Mike Dillard’s “Building on a Budget” course book provides more than the $25.00 (e-book version) cost in education alone. Beyond the educational benefit, it is essentially required for anyone interested in using the Magnetic Sponsoring funded proposal system to generate leads opening the door to build future business relationships.

This is the final of six posts containing articles and/or videos describing what I generically defined as an Internet Message Delivery System, which can also be called a basic Internet marketing system.  After summarizing the information provided to date, the video describes a couple of different situations where relationships are built with members of your target audience culminating in solidifying the relationship and delivering your ultimate message. I hope you find it useful!
