Michael Rasmussen’s “Get More Buyers” Video Course: Stuff Your List Full Of Buyers
Ever wondered how online marketers can send an email and see $2,500 or $5,000 or even $25,000 or more flow right into their bank account?It probably seems like magic…or a scam. But let me tell you, it’s neither one. In fact, it’s pretty easy once you have the business tool these big-profit marketers have. And Michael Rasmussen’s new “Get More Buyers” video course shows you how to get it.
*************************************************

*************************************************
The secret weapon these marketers have is a mailing list absolutely stuffed with buyers. What’s great about Michael’s course is that he hands you 10 practical strategies for attracting eager buyers. Actually, he’s showing you the way he built his own list, which is pretty much legendary as a JV profit powerhouse.
I’ve reviewed the course myself, and I can say a few things with confidence…First, the quality of the course is excellent. This was obviously professionally done. The audio is near studio quality, and the presentation he walks through makes the concepts completely clear. Michael’s previous products were clearly made by somebody who KNOWS how to make a great product, and this one continues the tradition.
He starts with a brief introduction to the common list-building mistakes people make when they’re just starting out online. This certainly explained some of my own struggles—it’s not just “fluff” material.For example, he tells you how to create your own profit-pulling marketing “funnel”, even if you’re starting from scratch.
He also tells you the root cause of the two major challenges most people face…but then he goes one better.
He tells you specifically how to crush those challenges.He walks through 10 strategies for stuffing your list full of buyers. This is amazing material. Here’s just a sample of what he covers:
* The “magic” price that can get you buyers almost immediately if you’re selling your own product* How to increase the profit you make on each sale by 50% of more, almost immediately, and with hardly any effort (it’s all about buyer psychology)
* How to “steal” buyers from other marketers, and actually have them thank you for it!List-building books and courses are a dime a dozen, but Michael’s course is one of the best I’ve ever seen.
There’s no tired old advice that doesn’t work today. He’s giving you real strategies that he uses himself, and that helped him create a list that routinely brings in five and six figures when he sends an email.
If you want results like that for yourself (and who DOESN’T, right?) then you check out Michael’s “Get More Buyers” course. Your business profits will be very happy you did!

Finally - A Top Secret Way You Can Get Google AdWords Pay-Per-Clicks FREE
A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to get your Google AdWords pay-per-clicks FREE!
A gentleman from New York discovered what he calls an "oversight" on the part of 99.9% of all marketers that allows him to get otherwise paid-for advertising at Google as well as all other search engines that allow sponsored ads.And no, nothing about his "secret" is illegal - nor does it require that you know someone on the "inside" at Google, Yahoo, MSN, Overture and others.
Instead, the New Yorker boasts proudly "...this is something that I caught onto just before 2000 when there was so much search engine craze running around, and started doing small just to test things at first ... but which I later expanded on after getting the hang of it."This same fellow went on to start and operate sixteen separate online companies selling everything from pet food, DVDs, children's toys & games, books, software, and sold not only his own manufactured products but became an affiliate for other web businesses - all the while applying his mastermind secret.
Over the course of nearly eight years the New Englander confesses "I've actually gotten over $87 million in advertising that using my secret I never had to pay for ... and the largest share of which was more recently in Google pay-per-clicks as well as other forms of pad advertising at search engines ... all of which I got for free ..."
So powerful is his secret that he's able to monopolize any niche online, and can always secure the top premium spots just above the usual organic results featured at most search engines.He still has to set up an account with the search engines - but after applying his secret he is removed from having to pay for all the costs otherwise involved.
Again, nothing about his secret is either illegal or robs from the search engines.One spokesperson from one of the most popular search engines said chuckling after being made privy to this amazing secret "Wow! Ha! This is really unique ... and in my expert opinion it would only serve to enhance and bring more business to us at [name of search engine withheld for legal & confidentiality reasons] and not cause us to lose business in the slightest. Amazing!"
The northerner revealed that in this nearly eight years' period of time since applying his secret he's done well over $300 million in sales revenue with a most diverse line of products, and most recently in the last two years netted nearly $166 million after really "buckling down and pressing my secret to its fullest potential."
Now to everyone else's fortune, the city slicker is releasing his secret for getting an unlimited amount of pay-per-click ads to the general public. But he's not promising any of us for how long.
A bit of an eccentric, the gentleman says "We'll see just how long I can make it available before it saturates things."One famous public web guru pointed out that although this man may gain economically more so as a result of the publication of his secret "he's already so amazingly rich that whether he continues or discontinues its sale will neither make nor break the man, but not grabbing it for yourself while it's still available could prove disastrous for you as you may only have one chance, and a very limited one at that, to get this."
It is currently available at Doug Recommends...so you may want to head on over there now and get it.It's in a very easily readable format and is quickly and readily understood and mastered by anyone with even a 4th grade reading level.While you're there, why not scroll down and review for yourself the huge successes others are now having with this incredible breakthrough in targeted advertising now made freely available to the rest of us?

Become A Prolific Product Developer
You’re not likely to get rich from one product. If you want to produce a REAL Internet Lifestyle, you need to develop multiple products. When you have a dozen or more products all making money for you automatically every single month, that’s when you have a stable business churning out all the money you need to live the lifestyle you choose.
That’s why you must focus on projects that are quick and easy to develop. Instead of writing an encyclopedia of a 300 page ebook, put together a 40 page ebook report. You may respond, “But I can’t cover everything in that amount of space!”
Good. You’re not supposed to cover everything. Your goal as a product developer is to help your customers get to their desired result (the solution of their problem) in the quickest and most direct route.
Do an outline of the steps it takes to reach the end goal. Then sit down and write.
Don’t edit.
Don’t answer the phone.
Don’t surf the web.
Don’t check your email.
Block off time to just write. I’ve created many of my ebook products over a weekend where I just blocked off to write during that period. You write for 30 to 60 minutes. Then take a 5 to 10 minute break. Do this writing and break cycle over and over again until finished.
Take a few days out as a break to rest your mind before coming back to edit what you’ve written. The reason so many new writers (and old ones as well) take so long to write is because they allow themselves to be interrupted or they try to edit while writing. Eliminate these distractions and watch your productivity soar.
But writing an information product is only ONE way to create your product quickly. Often it’s not even the best way. Let’s cover 7 quick product creation methods to help you become a prolific product developer.
1. Write It
If you’re going to write, follow the model above. Write the outline. Then block off time to just write like a madman (or woman). Later come back and edit your work. Then for absolute best results, read it out loud or have someone else read it out loud to you.
While video is quickly becoming the most powerful way to share your message online, there still are a number of potential customers who prefer written material. So while you see me focusing more and more on video, you’ll still see some written products coming out.
2. Use Voice Recognition
Are you a slow typist? Or do you have trouble writing in a natural voice without sounding like a college text book? If either of those are the case, you can use voice recognition software to speak your product into a written form. I’ve helped quite a few business owners who couldn’t get into writing create fantastic ebooks through voice recognition (and the best part is you can use it for your rough drafts of emails and sales letters as well).
The program I recommend for this is Dragon Naturally Speaking. Pick up the newest version which I think is number 9 at the time of this writing. You’ll go through a training process for the program to recognize your voice, but you’ll quickly get up to speed with speaking out your product. You could call this type of software the great equalizer.
You’ll do some major editing on what you write this way, but that’s true irregardless of how you get your thoughts out into written form. Write first. Then edit. If that rule from above is one you never seem to follow, that’s another reason to try out this software.
3. Public Domain
Instead of creating your product completely from scratch, use public domain materials or even private label materials as a launch pad. For example, I created an extremely profitable ebook called Scientific Internet Advertising. The foundation of the material was Claude Hopkins, “Scientific Advertising.” That’s one of the classics highly recommended by top marketing experts such as Jay Abraham.
The copyright on the original book had long expired which meant you could give it away, sell it, or do whatever with it. I took all the original text and simply wrote an add-on for each chapter about how to apply what he taught to the Internet. While anyone could give away the original book freely, my modified version is protected by copyright laws.
Go spend a little time at http://www.gutenberg.org looking through all the materials they have available. Not everything there is public domain, so be careful to read any of the licenses included. Another great source for public domain materials are items produced by the US government.
For example, need some photos for your project? Check through all the links the US government provides here: http://www.usa.gov/Topics/Graphics.shtml
Not everything is completely royalty free, but the majority of these photos are.
What about private label products? Do a search on private label products and you’ll find thousands of products sold with these rights. You can then take those products, modify them, and produce a new product out of them. The big concern here is that most private label materials are next to worthless.
hey’re low cost productions with poor writing and even worse information. So be careful when buying anything that comes with private label rights, but they can be a good starting point for your own project.
4. Do an Interview
What if you can’t write and you’re not even an expert on the subject you want to cover? Find an expert and interview them. In the real estate field they talk about using other people’s money. In the information business, you can even use other people’s information by interviewing them.
Find several top experts on your topic and contact them.
Create a series of 8 to 12 questions your research has said your market wants to hear. If you’ve never done this before, you’re about to be surprised at just how easy it is to secure interviews with some individuals. Book authors are often the most open by the way as they’re used to doing interviews to promote their books.
How do you record the interview? Just go down to your local Radio Shack or another electronics dealer. Ask for a phone recording set-up. This will give you the basic tool you need to get started.
Or you can go fully digital like I have on my recent interviews. I’m now using http://www.skype.com software combined with http://www.powergramo.com to do my phone call and recording. This way it’s all recorded digitally on my computer.
5. Teleseminar or Webinar
If you set-up a teleseminar or webinar, you can get paid BEFORE you create your product. I’ve done both one time calls and a series of calls. The beauty of both models is you get paid…and you create a product to sell. For example, I’ve done single calls for free…and for as low as $19.95. I’ve also done a call where we charged $37 and gave all the money from the call to charity.
I’ve also done longer series combined in with weekly assignments and personal feedback for $397 to $1,997 depending on how many calls were involved and the subject (4 to 12 calls).
You’ll have your full outline ready before you sell the series, but you can create and expand on the material each week before the call (or webinar). In addition, doing a question and answer session at the end of each call will add even more value to your finished product.
Another advantage I’ve found to this method is now I’m actually required to get my product done on time. It’s very easy to let life get in the way when your product needs to be done. That’s not possible when you’ve scheduled and sold a teleseminar. Now you have to have the information done by that date. No more procrastination allowed…
6. Record a Camtasia Video
How did we even run an internet business before Camtasia? If you haven’t tried out this software, do so now. You can download a free trial here:http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.asp
If what you’re teaching can be demonstrated on the computer, this software is perfect. OR you can also use it to create a video of any Powerpoint presentation.
They even have a complete learning center to show you how to get the most from your Camtasia videos, including such tactics as running a live quiz inside your presentation. Check out their training here:http://www.techsmith.com/learn/default.asp
7. Follow an Expert With a Camcorder
Camtasia allows you to record what you’re doing on screen, but what if you want to teach something that isn’t done on a computer? Buy a camcorder and microphone. I definitely don’t want to cover specific types to buy here, because the way technology is moving my recommendation could be out of date by next week.
Now take your little camcorder, separate mic, and tripod to follow around an expert for the day. Maybe you’re doing a DVD on gardening. Show exactly what they do in each step. Or it could be basketball. Show close-ups of the shot process. If it’s a real estate investor, just follow them around with your camcorder all day.
It could be a “Day in the Life of a _______.” What would people pay to get behind the scenes of a successful real estate investor, day trader, or professional speaker? You’ll end up recording more than you can use, but you can edit all the boring parts out later.
Bonus Method: Notice what I didn’t talk about here? I didn’t even mention that you could outsource the product creation as one of the possibilities. ANY of the methods above could be outsourced by hiring someone else to do it for you. Spend a little time exploring over at http://www.elance.com to see all the different projects being posted.

Looking For Your First JV
You’ve probably already been told that joint ventures are the fastest way to grow your business.
That is 100% true. The quickest to sell your product is to find out who already has your customers and get them to split the profits with you through an endorsement. The fastest way to build your list is to figure out who already has your subscribers and how you can get in front of their audience. A risk-free way to create your first product is to interview an expert who already has credibility in the marketplace.
Build your business using other people’s information, other people’s subscribers, and other people’s skills.
But most beginners have a horrible time getting their first JVs going because they go about it in totally the wrong way.
They send out an email to all the top marketers saying, “Would you be interested in promoting my product?”
Sorry. No. I wouldn’t be interested.
Except they don’t receive that rejection email back. All they hear is silence. Worse than being rejected is being ignored.
If you send out the normal “Would you like to promote my product” emails, the most often response will be silence. People won’t respond.
They get those emails every single day. And it’s almost as bad sending out your product to them in the mail. Do you realize how many products most business owners with large audiences already receive?
You get lost in the shuffle.
We have to think like a marketer when you’re going after JVs.
Your audience here are busy business owners who already receive JV offers constantly. They’ve heard all the pitches about how much money they can make with your product.
How will you stand out as unique in this competitive marketplace?
Let’s say you’re starting at ground zero with nothing. You don’t have a track record or other relationships to build off of. Obviously once you have some successful JVs under your belt, you can use those as leverage to keep building your online empire.
Just like any other prospect, your potential JV partners are tuned into WIIFM (What’s In It For Me?).
What’s in it for them?
What can you give to the list owner that’s unique…that they’re not getting anywhere else?
They already receive a ton of emails to promote products. All of them talk about how much commission they can earn. All of them offer a free copy of the product (if you’re not offering this you’re not even in the market).
What aren’t they offering?
The first place you can stand out is with real numbers. For example, no one wants to be your test dummy. What conversion rate is your site getting currently? If you’re not sure, run some tests and make sure you’re tracking numbers.
Why will their audience appreciate them for recommending the product? Show that you’ve really done your homework by subscribing to their list, reading their blog, and knowing how they normally operate.
In many markets, just having these real numbers will put you far ahead any other competitor you have.
What about the really competitive markets like internet business?
You may have to go further. Others are also sharing their numbers, so how can you give more? What else does that publisher need (WIIFM)? If they have a newsletter, maybe they need article content which you could provide them. If they have a membership site, they definitely need content for that. If they’re a large publisher you could offer to develop exclusive content just for their group.
Maybe they’re not interested in promoting your first product. Perhaps it could simply be included as a free bonus with a product they’re already selling.
You may be thinking, “But then I won’t make any money!” So what? You would be getting exposure and building your name in the market by being attached to their product. Your information would be put in front of thousands of people you never would have reached without a large advertising budget.
Another backdoor strategy is to secure an interview with them. Come up with a good topic and find questions related to the topic. During the 30 minutes to an hour you’re on the phone with them you’re building a relationship with them which can later be leveraged into other opportunities.
Think long-term instead of immediate profits for your first few JVs. What can you provide to them or give to them to improve their business first. This old statement from Jay Abraham comes to mind, “Give first and prove your worth.”
This applies to customers. It also applies to JV relationships.
That is 100% true. The quickest to sell your product is to find out who already has your customers and get them to split the profits with you through an endorsement. The fastest way to build your list is to figure out who already has your subscribers and how you can get in front of their audience. A risk-free way to create your first product is to interview an expert who already has credibility in the marketplace.
Build your business using other people’s information, other people’s subscribers, and other people’s skills.
But most beginners have a horrible time getting their first JVs going because they go about it in totally the wrong way.
They send out an email to all the top marketers saying, “Would you be interested in promoting my product?”
Sorry. No. I wouldn’t be interested.
Except they don’t receive that rejection email back. All they hear is silence. Worse than being rejected is being ignored.
If you send out the normal “Would you like to promote my product” emails, the most often response will be silence. People won’t respond.
They get those emails every single day. And it’s almost as bad sending out your product to them in the mail. Do you realize how many products most business owners with large audiences already receive?
You get lost in the shuffle.
We have to think like a marketer when you’re going after JVs.
Your audience here are busy business owners who already receive JV offers constantly. They’ve heard all the pitches about how much money they can make with your product.
How will you stand out as unique in this competitive marketplace?
Let’s say you’re starting at ground zero with nothing. You don’t have a track record or other relationships to build off of. Obviously once you have some successful JVs under your belt, you can use those as leverage to keep building your online empire.
Just like any other prospect, your potential JV partners are tuned into WIIFM (What’s In It For Me?).
What’s in it for them?
What can you give to the list owner that’s unique…that they’re not getting anywhere else?
They already receive a ton of emails to promote products. All of them talk about how much commission they can earn. All of them offer a free copy of the product (if you’re not offering this you’re not even in the market).
What aren’t they offering?
The first place you can stand out is with real numbers. For example, no one wants to be your test dummy. What conversion rate is your site getting currently? If you’re not sure, run some tests and make sure you’re tracking numbers.
Why will their audience appreciate them for recommending the product? Show that you’ve really done your homework by subscribing to their list, reading their blog, and knowing how they normally operate.
In many markets, just having these real numbers will put you far ahead any other competitor you have.
What about the really competitive markets like internet business?
You may have to go further. Others are also sharing their numbers, so how can you give more? What else does that publisher need (WIIFM)? If they have a newsletter, maybe they need article content which you could provide them. If they have a membership site, they definitely need content for that. If they’re a large publisher you could offer to develop exclusive content just for their group.
Maybe they’re not interested in promoting your first product. Perhaps it could simply be included as a free bonus with a product they’re already selling.
You may be thinking, “But then I won’t make any money!” So what? You would be getting exposure and building your name in the market by being attached to their product. Your information would be put in front of thousands of people you never would have reached without a large advertising budget.

The easiest Way to Create Articles - Public Domain!
There are many webmasters that find writing articles for their site to be a very tedious task. Many people who need to write articles also procrastinate as much as they can to delay the amount of writing they need to do. Many people dread writing articles because they find researching for the topic and writing down original materials will be too taxing on them.
You need to have your creative juices flowing and simply downloading an article would be plagiarism or tantamount to stealing, not exactly.
Have you ever heard about public domain?
These are articles written down by many authors that have declared their works to be public domain, which means anybody can use it for whatever purpose they want.
While most authors would prefer to copyright their work for their rights, there are also a number who doesn't mind sharing their work. Public domain articles are not owned by anybody and can be used and abused by anyone. The writers have waived their rights to their works and it is out there for the public to make use of.
You can use public domain articles in helping you write your articles. With the public domain articles you can simply edit them to your own style and rewrite them as you please to make it suitable for your needs. All the ideas are there already and it's just a matter of finding the write article with the topic or subject you need.
This is probably the easiest way to write articles. You don't need to scour around the library or the internet for hours for information and start an article from scratch. For webmasters who are looking for articles to fill their site and to generate a high ranking for their website in search engine results, they can just modify the article by infusing keywords and keyword phrases related to their site.
A webmaster or website operator do not risk any chance of getting sued for copyright infringement because they are public domain, once again meaning that anybody can use it. Writing articles by using public domain won't require as much work as writing one from scratch would. You save a lot of time also.
One good factor in using public domain articles for your site or for any project is that you save a lot of money. You dismiss the need to hire experienced and seasoned writers that some website operators use to write their articles. While a single five hundred worded article would only set you down £10 to £15 pounds, this cost will drastically increase when you need hundreds of articles to fill the needs of your site.
For those who need articles to generate newsletters or an e-zine, public domain articles will be very beneficial. You do not need to count on your contributors or pay writers to write down articles for your newsletter or e-zine. You can fill all the pages without any cost or the worry of being sued and sought after by the writers. You can simply copy the articles and place them on your newsletter and e-zine.
Public domain articles are a virtual untapped resource that many people fail to realize the true value. The power of articles, keywords and keyword phrases have been deemed invaluable these past few years for many internet based businesses and sites that want to rank high in search engine results.
The number of article and content writers have grown significantly due to the rise in the demand for articles. As newer and newer topics and subjects have arisen, there are many demands for new articles to be written. An industry has been formed and this is a worldwide demand.
Public domain articles have given a great alternative for those who are cash strapped as well as do not have the time or don't think they have the skills to do their articles for themselves.
Searching for public domain articles is as easy as 1 - 2 - 3. You can search for them in search engines and do searches in many directories for the topic or subject that you need. Read them and simply copy n paste them to a word processing program and simply edit them to suit your needs.

Five Reasons Why Writing Articles Improves Your Online Business
Doing business on the internet often requires you to go above and beyond in terms of marketing methods and promotion. Funnily enough, a lot of people think that there are mysterious secrets out there to make online businesses wildly successful.
The truth is, there are techniques but none of them are mysterious or 'top secret' at all. For example, one of the best ways to make a business successful is through writing articles.It's a simple thing to do really. All you need is a little creative flair. Or if you are hopeless at writing, find someone to help you craft your words.
The point is, you must be able to produce some sort of copy for the internet because articles can spell the difference between a few sales and mega sales. It's a really great way to improving business. Here's why.
Articles interest people.A well-written article can be enough to strike interest in someone; that interest could turn into buying interest and spawn sales. How much more effective is a website that not only sells items but has great descriptive copy to go with the items, as well as reviews, anecdotes, user testimonies etc. compared to a website with nothing but a shopping cart facility?
Articles reach people.If you send your articles out, whether through other websites or emails or online magazines, you reach more people. Again, this is often enough to strike interest and have people check out your website and products.
Articles can be more effective than simple passing mentions. They really reach people and get inside their heads.Articles provide free advertising.If you submit your articles to other websites, you are actually getting free exposure for your product or service. While the website that runs your copy is happy for getting content for free, you should be more happy that you're receiving a ton of advertising for free - all because you took time out for writing articles.
Articles improve your search engine status.If you refresh your website daily with new articles, search engines recognize the activity and rank you as relevant in their daily search results. This is a great way to gain more exposure and help grow your business. All you have to do is generate copy on a consistent basis, making sure that your articles contain sharp keywords that are targeted to your particular market. The results can be fascinating and sales can go up immensely.
Articles make you look good. Period.Let's face it; if you invest enough time in writing articles, your website will definitely improve. The more you have articles on your site, the more it looks like there's activity and life to your business. This attracts people who generally don't like being lonely, especially in cyberspace. If they see your site and notice the updates they'll realize it's a place with frequent action. This will often translate into repeat visits and more visitors over time.
As you can see, writing articles can help your business immensely. All you need to do is take out the time to put fingers to keyboard. Happy writing!

Building an opt in list
One of the best marketing strategies to use in running an online business is building an opt-in list. People who aim to strike it big in the online scene will do well to build opt-in lists for their website. Having opt-in lists is one way to ensure that profits keep coming.
Opt-in lists are essentially names and emails databases of people who've visited a website or bought something via the website. Each opt-in listing allows site owners to send emails, updates and promos to people who subscribed or signed up to the list. An opt-in list is just like a regular mailing or membership list for everyday clubs or shops, only here the opt-in lists are created over the Net.
Anyone who visits a website is a client-in-the-making. Potential clients mean potential sales and potential sales mean potential profits. Say you've implemented a great Internet marketing plan and it led to visitors turning into customers, browsing into sales and profits. The smart thing to do would be to not let all these efforts go to waste.
Your present client roster can still be clients sometime in the future.Building opt-in lists will undoubtedly work to an online business owner's advantage. It will ensure that he maintains close contact and good relations with customers, particularly those who drop by frequently.Opt-in lists are excellent time- and money-savers too.
Once a business comes up with new products or fresh information, it knows exactly who to send the updates to since it's already established a target market. All that's left is to make current client numbers grow even more.
Opt-In List Suggestions
• Never stop promoting a website to increase its "face time" with people and entice more subscribers.
• Send out updates, information and articles to clients that contain links to your website. See to it that the information provided is of interest to the client.
• Online business owners should use their signatures to expand opt-in lists. Each time messages are sent out, the link info should always be present.
• Place a prominently located "subscribe" box or link on all pages of the site.
• Put together contests or offer freebies that would require site visitors to provide their email addresses to be able to enter.
• Do a little networking. Take part in discussion boards and forums to forge relationships with people. • Serve up free courses to website visitors. This will help in maintaining a great relationship with subscribers.
Opt-In List DONT'S
• Don't be spammers. Get subscribers' permission before sending them anything. Otherwise, you might wind up damaging your online reputation.
• Avoid information overload. Never inundate subscribers with info as they might end up ignoring ALL your emails.
• Avoid annoying pop-ups. Pop-up blockers are now widely available so efforts exerted in placing pop-ups might just be pointless.
Having plenty of regular subscribers is undeniably good for business. But the work doesn't simply end there. Once you're done building an opt-in list, you've got to make sure you take care of it. Maintain close contact with subscribers and keep sending them heads-ups. On occasion, it doesn't hurt to send these people useful tips, offers and freebies just to keep them interested.

Not many people know this, but in order to tweak and perfect the course, Richard is GIVING away a limited numberof V.I.P memberships to the first few people to visit the site and join up. This way he can get feedback and improve it. Once he's confident, he's going to start charging up to $197 - $297 for the course.

It's Coming Soon - 18th January 2008
NOW IN IT'S PRE-LAUNCH
ARMAND MORIN'S BRAND NEW ONLINE COURSE
Are you just starting online? Maybe you've been doing it for sometime now but not made any real progress. If either of these are you then you need to look at this brand new course from Armand Morin.
It’s a VERY comprehensive course on how to effectively market your products and services online.
No stone was left unturned.
It’s perfect for someone just starting online and even more relevant for someone who has been online for a while but hasn’t made significant progress.
Now here’s the best part.
It covers all the latest strategies for driving traffic, converting traffic, increasing opt-in rates, increasing sales and so much more.
With the New Year upon us, people have been discussing what will be "hot" in 2008.
One of the most common topics has been VIDEO.
That's no surprise really but I think the difference is HOW video will be used. That's why so many are talking about the significance of THIS video:
It gives tremendous insight regarding the emergence of entertainment and marketing working together in the same video.
Armand has put together something very similar to a "movie trailer" which is generating a lot of excitement - especially when you'll find that it leads to a TON of free video lessons.
So here's what you should do:
2) Claim your free video content
After you watch the video you'll be redirected to an optin page where you can claim an entire month's worth of free video content.
Armand has already posted 6 videos and he's adding more throughout the month of January.
Enjoy!
Until next time.....

Quick Fire Profits Reviewed
By now I think most people in the world are online or have access to the internet. What most don’t know is that there is a huge amount of income to be made for a minimal cost of even for free!
For those that are aware of this, they’ll know that most courses and products for sale only offer the theory behind this. They don’t offer to show the “newbie” how to actually set up and make money online.
However now you are about to receive the full training you desire! This step by step video training is brought to us all courtesy of Matt and Rob Benwell. They are co creators of a system called Quick Fire Profits.
Now Matt only started earning money online in July 2007. Previously he had a job in finance and was in so much debt that he couldn’t afford to buy or do anything. On the other hand his kid brother Rob was making crazy money online using Blogs and other internet marketing ventures. Needless to say Matt wanted to know the secrets Robs success. Rob was only too happy to share this information with his older surf bum of a brother as he has with a select few that have had the chance to see his Blogging to the Bank series of ebooks. Matt is now earning over $11000 each month.
Quick Fire Profits came about as Matt noticed that nearly all of the so called “make money online” products lacked one thing. Actual instruction on how to use the systems the marketers were selling. Sure they’d tell you the theory and try and confuse you, but they lacked and step by step instruction.
This is where Quick Fire Profits exceeds these products. Matt and Rob have created a site that not only offers full step by step video tutorials on how to earn up to $11000 per month online… and more.
Now I’m a member of this site and let me tell you, it’s amazing. Although I am not struggling to make any money online, I thought I’d chance it and give Quick Fire Profits a go just to see if its as good as I’ve heard. Also it adds another stream of income to my business.
I’ve only being using it for a few weeks and I am already making serious money from using the lessons from Matt and Rob’s site, Using this site I have easily set up an affiliate campaign and have started seeing a return with a few hours.
One thing that may put a few of you off is that both Matt and Rob aren’t professional speakers. They’re just normal guys from the UK. Some might find their accent a little strong as they are both from Yorkshire in the North of England …I think it sounds great.
Other than the great step by step video tutorials, they offer you full support if you have any problems following their systems and also give you the opportunity to let them know if they have missed anything that you would like to be included on the site. This finally gives people like you and me the product and service we desire.
Quick Fire Profits is a breath of fresh air and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to make easy money online.
Final Verdict: If you want to make money the easy way then I highly recommend Quick Fire Profits. Why work harder than you need to as these step by step techniques are there ready for you to simply implement.
But don’t take my word for it...have a look for yourself

Armand Morin has done it again!
Selling digital goods such as software, videos, audio files or ebooks?
Concerned about piracy? If not...then you should be!
It's a huge industry that costs authors, programmers and publishers billions of dollars a year in ecommerce profits.
While a lot of the good shopping carts have effective and secure digital goods delivery systems that prevent unauthorized access to products; once the product has been delivered, there isn't any real way to stop the buyer from distributing copies to their friends and colleagues. Then those recipients distribute to their friends and colleagues and so forth - it can amount to huge losses in revenue.
Even worse is the problem of the original purchaser buying your product, then immediately asking for a refund (if you offer one) - so you don't even get the money from the initial sale; but the person keeps the product that can then be redistributed. While refunds are a great way to increase sales conversions, the do certainly leave you open to this sort of behavior from some unscrupulous people.

Are you liable for breach of copyright?
I was going though my DVD sets today and I came across one of Carl Galletti's Superconferences. On one of the DVDs was a US attorney who is also an internet marketer. What she had to say about audio files brought me out in a cold sweat.
I kid you not....this is going to have a resounding affect for a lot of internet marketers who use audio files. She warns that mp3 is an international standard that has been patented and that there is an international body called the World Trade Organization that governs these standards so its not just an American issue but a world wide issue.
The WTO requires that the patent holder(s) do two things1) they must license that patent2) they must also collect royaltiesThe problem is everybody thinks mp3 is free but its NOT. Thomson, who issues the licenses, has been gearing up attornies to go after individuals and businesses who have not complied to the licensing regulations.
They are even building software to "spider" the internet for websites that have the mere mention of mp3, so they don't have to do it manually.This way they will be able to find the violators. They can then potentially take those violators to court for license and royalty fees. Its not just selling the files that violates the license.
Anytime an mp3 file is downloaded, put onto a CD, streamed or even given away as a bonus for maybe an opt-in list, you can be potentially be responsible for paying a royalty fee based on the entire gross revenue from ANY sales from that opt-in list. Its not just future sales but past and present. It also affects your affiliates. There is far too much to go into detail here, but if anyone is interested or would like to know more, I will do my best to answer.The two patent holder company names are Thomson and Fraunhofer. Here is a link to one of their FAQ pages. http://mp3licensing.com/help/index.html#4

Millionaire Bootcamp 2007
Welcome to Wave Marketing Direct. Its been a long time coming but at last its here! That's me with Ted Nicholas at the bootcamp. What a gentleman he is!
I want this to be a place where I can put ideas, thoughts and suggestions for people who are looking to improve their lifestyles through running their own online business.
Please feel free to post suitable comments or questions. So with that note what a great subject to kick off with.... UK multi millionaire Andrew Reynolds did it again!!! Last year and for the 2nd year running, Andrew organised his now famous Bootcamp down in sunny Bournemouth, UK (my neck of the woods) with all proceeds going to Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital in London, UK.
A total of over £400,000 was raised from ticket sales and the venue was packed.I'm glad to say it was in my home town of Bournemouth so that was even better. The event finished today and guest speakers over the 3 days were:
Andrew Reynolds
Simon Coulson
Alan Forrest Smith
Ted Nicholas
Yanik Silver
Derek Gehl
Bob Proctor
Gerry Robert
Armand Morin
and Dominic O'Brien
In case you're wondering who Dominic O'Brien is, all I can say is that his memory is something else so its no wonder he's 8 times World Memory Champion.
One of the highlights was seeing Ted Nicholas dancing his way around the auditorium to the sound of 'Night Fever' in the background and everybody on their feet clapping and dancing.
Every speaker gave good information but as always, Allan, Yanik, Armand and Derek were the best in my mind. My only gripe would be trying to speak to Andrew, Tim Lowe and some of the speakers. Possibly having the panel on stage to answer questions would have been good.
If you've not been yet to Andrew's Bootcamp, I would suggest that this year you make getting to a seminar a certainty, if you're looking to make a millionaire lifestyle for yourself.
Until next time
