The BLT principles consists of action words that you would want your prospects to have with you. This is also the reason why autohumanization works. Automation will cease to work unless you give it a humanized touch.

The more money you want to earn, the more personalized your approach must be. You cannot expect to turn your prospects into leads until you are able to elicit the BLT principle in them.

The BLT principle may also be called the KLT principle. It’s Believe (or Know), Like and Trust. Let us examine each of these in depth.

Believe

All marketers bank on belief. You have to be able to convince your prospects that what you have to say is believable. If you are providing a too good to be true offer, then most people would probably not give you the benefit of the doubt. The sad fact is that many internet marketers in the past have promised hollow things all for the sake of getting someone to buy their products.


If you put yourself in the perspective of those who have been badly burned by yet another ill-fated marketing pitch, then you might as well be more wary from receiving offers in the future. If you make them sure that you are believable, then it can eventually lead to the remaining two steps in the BLC principle.

Like

It is one thing to make them believe in you. It is quite another to make them like you. I know it may be a difficult pill to swallow, but you have to make your customer like you first before you sell them anything. If you find it hard to be a bit of a people-pleaser even just for this venture, then you might want to seriously consider a paradigm shift.

Liking from an internet marketer’s perspective is not really about them liking you on a personal level even with all your idiosyncrasies. But it is really all about making them like what you have to offer, like your style of marketing and all those things contributory to your business.


Trust

The very last thing that you can build with your prospects to make them sure buyers is trust. In any relationship, whether it is personal or business-related, trust is vital. If you get them to like and believe you, but not trust you, you will only get more page views and no buyers.

Building trust is a thing that you can master over time. It is also not an overnight success. Trust is something you have to work on regularly with all your prospects.

Once your prospects or leads learn to believe, like and trust you, it will only be a matter of time before you feel your business thriving and increasing. While it’s true that there are still a great deal of things to learn, once you have the BLT settled in your business, most of the things you will be doing afterward will be a breeze.

About the Author
Occupation: Internet Marketer
Author, Speaker, Philanthropist, Master List Builder, Family Man When Joel Christopher came to the United States from the Philippines on August 8, 1988, he knew nothing about the internet. He was a physical therapist who wanted a better life for his family. Yet today, Joel is known among internet marketing gurus as the "Master List Builder". Master List Builder Recognizing the business and marketing potential of the Internet, he started his own online business in late 1999 and launched his first website on January 1, 2000, geared towards providing aspiring Internet entrepreneurs with a step-by-step guide to succeeding online. He was himself merely a beginner, or what he fondly calls a “newbie netpreneur”. After faltering and floundering in his first year online, he attended a live seminar, took a lot of notes and applied what he learned. It only took two months after that for him to become successful enough to quit his job and make a full-time living creating and selling products on the internet. Speaker Since, then, Joel has attended more than 100 live seminars, boot camps and conferences, and has actually spoken at more than half of them on the topic of "opt-in" list building. He has spoken in front of thousands of people in the U.S. and Canada and has shared the stage with many marketing legends such as Ted Nicholas, Joe Sugarman, Robert Allen, Mark Victor Hanson and Mark Joyner. He has grown his own opt-in list to more than 153,000 newsletter subscribers in just three years. But he earned his "Master List Builder" nickname when he tripled his list to over 30,903 names in only 99 days. Author Using the email marketing principles he teaches, he recently demonstrated the power of a huge opt-in email list when his co-authored book "Mining Online Gold With An Offline Shovel: How To Build A Massive Online Mailing List By Mastering Offline Promotion" zoomed to the top of the Amazon.com best-seller list just 13 hours after it was published. Only the pre-release of the latest Harry Potter book beat it to the number one position. International best-selling author and radio talk show host Mike Litman recently nicknamed Joel Christopher the "Tony Robbins of Internet Marketing" and Randy Gilbert of the "Inside Success" show called him "The Michael Jordan of Internet List Building". Joel Christopher is the Director and Owner of SuccessAccess.com and MasterListBuilder.com. He is a consummate entrepreneur who wants to share his passion for self-employment with others because of the time and financial freedom it offers. Philanthropist In addition,Joel Christopher has made a personal commitment to help young Philippinos receive the education they need to improve their lives. To this end, he has begun a foundation and is donating 100% of his profits from his first book to this cause. Family Man Joel's beautiful wife, Sheila, is his constant companion and supporter, as well as playing a key roll in Joel's businesses. They live with their precious daughter Simone in Helotes, Texas
