			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://barryplaskow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/slide2-guerrilla3.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-125" title="slide2-guerrilla3" src="http://barryplaskow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/slide2-guerrilla3-300x226.png" alt="" width="259" height="195" /></a>We have all heard about the importance of having a website for your business. We were told that in the 21st century you simply can&#8217;t survive without a decent web presence.</p>
<p>But what happens once you have your site in place?</p>
<p>Does it drive more prospects into your marketing funnel?</p>
<p>Are you getting more phone calls in to your offline business because of it?</p>
<p>Are your customers more likely to become repeat customers as a result of your online efforts?</p>
<p>If you answered no to any of the above questions, here&#8217;s the sad reality&#8230;you are not only not alone, but more than 99% of of all small businesses with a website feel the same way!</p>
<p>For many years I felt the same way.</p>
<p>If it wasn&#8217;t for the people I met and the connections I made, I&#8217;d still be stuck with everyone else.</p>
<h2>So what is the web traffic formula?</h2>
<p>It comes down to 3 basic elements&#8230;</p>
<ol>
<li>Your website, how it&#8217;s built and the content you provide</li>
<li>Selecting the right traffic strategies that suit <span style="text-decoration: underline;">your</span> business</li>
<li>Converting that traffic in to what you want from your website, whether it&#8217;s more sales, more prospects or more subscribers.</li>
</ol>
<p>In the &#8220;Guerrilla Web Traffic Formula&#8221;  I&#8217;m joined by people who really know not only how to drive traffic, but to convert that traffic as well.</p>

<p>I am even more excited to list Jay Conrad Levinson as a friend and as a business partner on our SuccessBug platform and as a co-author on my book.</p>
<p>Why was it so important for me to connect with Jay?</p>
<p>Several reasons&#8230;</p>
<ul class="greenarrow">
<li>Because Jay has had an impact on more small business than any other marketer on the planet bar none. His Guerrilla Marketing books have sold over 20 million copies! I wanted Successbug to be associated with the most influential marketing brand in history.</li>
<li>I discovered Guerrilla Marketing ideas the hard way. After a tough 1st year running a community education center in Montreal Canada , I  had to think of ways of growing that institution fast, on a shoestring budget. I was literally weeks away from being fired. Yet, through great trial and error (and a lot of tears) I was able to grow the project into the biggest of its kind in North America, surpassing 20 other better funded organizations. In short, GM works when it is done right and it works for almost any type of small business out there.</li>
<li>I am determined to save fellow businesses the time (and tears) I had to go through to increase their success. Jay is a person I wanted on board as a partner on this project.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can find out a lot more about GM and how it can be used to grow your business at <a title="sb" href="http://successbug.com">SuccessBug.com</a><br />

<p>There is a very good reason for it.</p>
<p>For the past 12 months I have been working with investors and a top team of business experts to create the definitive small business home on the web, called SuccessBug.</p>
<p>As a business owner myself who went through multiple struggles and challenges (which I have thankfully overcame  through good luck, great connections and a whole lot of hard work) I understand better than most, the frustrations of trying to grow a business.</p>
<p>Successbug is a community designed to save you the time, tears and quite frankly the money I spent getting to where I am now.</p>
<p>Although I do not claim to hold the answers to every question out there, I do have connections to resources who have joined the SuccessBug team who do.</p>
<p>Moreover, it is my inherent belief that the true answers to YOUR questions lies in the experience of others who have gone through what you are presently going through.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why building a true small business interactive community was central to the Successbug vision.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d love to connect with you and connect you to other just like you over at<a title="SuccessBug" href="http://successbug.com" target="_blank"> SuccessBug</a>!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Barry Plaskow is one of the most dynamic and influential experts in Small Business marketing today.</p>
<p>Barry is and has worked with some of the biggest names in all aspects of the the industry, such as Spike Humer, James Brown (founder of a top 50 Alexa site) and Jay Conrad Levinson (who Barry is co-authoring a book with).</p>
<p>There is little stopping Barry with an unrivaled  drive and determination to help small businesses improve increase their profits using the internet and traditional advertising.</p>
<p>What makes Barry unique, is his diverse and eccentric background in education and business building&#8230;</p>
<p>Over a 5 year period, he turned a non profit educational organization in Montreal, Canada, into the largest of its kind not only in Canada, but also in North America. Mobilizing the grass roots, his association surpassed 20 others, many of which were more established, larger and had better financial backing.</p>
<p>Along the way, he gained worldwide recognition for his efforts.  He spoke to groups on 4 continents and gained extensive television, radio and print coverage—free publicity&#8211;in this capacity.</p>
<p>Barry is also a visionary with unbridled passion and determination.</p>
<p>Barry intuitively understood what small businesses were truly lacking online to be able to increase their profits; A real online “Home” that provides them with all the tools, training and community to overcome their every challenge and find the information they need to grow their businesses.</p>
<p>It was through Barry&#8217;s drive and determination, the <a title="SuccessBug" href="http://successbug.com" target="_blank">SuccessBug</a> platform came to be&#8230;</p>
<p>Barry has also assembled a marketing team who have been behind some of the biggest online success stories (including 2 top 100 most visited Alexa sites).</p>
