Martin's Power Thought, Harvey's Ultimate Supertips Book

This has nothing to do with IM, just a power thought from Martin Avis of Kickstart Daily:

"There is a Buddhist mental trick that can often come to the rescue in times when you are lost for an answer.

"When a problem is in front of you and your mind is refusing to come up with a solution, try this:

"Close your eyes, calm your thoughts and count yourself backwards from 5 to 1. As you count, imagine yourself entering a deep, dark, quiet place where all your memories are stored.

"Bring you problem into focus and tell yourself that you know the answer, you just have to remember it.

"Speak inside your mind to that subconscious place and tell it that the answer is buried in your memories and that it should drop everything else and go off to find it.

"That's all you do.

"Now count yourself back to the present, put your problem to one side and get on with other things.

"Your mind will now work on the assumption that you DO know the answer rather than panic that you don't.

"In time, at an unexpected moment, a solution will pop into your head. And when it does, take note. It is almost certain to be right.

I have talked about this one before, but it is worth repeating because:
1.) It's free
2.) Requires no opt-in
3.) Can go viral if you let it
4.) It's packed with all sorts of useful information about viral marketing, and
5.) is free and requires no opt-in (oops, I said that already).
6.) Has a neat Splash Page with my picture on it? (Whoopee!)

Here Goes: The Ultimate Supertips Book

#~#~#

OK - OK - OK - I'm still casting about out there for a really good Internet based course on (what else?) making money on the Internet. My Internet Martin Avis has suggested Michael Green's new course called The Money Tree.

And, a few other people have started to promote his new course that is supposed to teach us how to make money from the Internet anytime you want to. This course, 'The Money Tree,' is subtitled, 'How to make $30,000 in 30 days ... guaranteed!'

The original Avis review, and a link to a lot more information on what the course contains, is here: http://www.moneytreereview.com/. I am not promoting this, just reporting on what I am checking out. I'll let you know if I decide to take him up on the offer ....... stay tuned.

#~#~#

In the meantime, I am still putting the final pieces on my Traffic Exchange project. That's also a ..... stayed tuned for more ..... project. Read the previous post to learn more. ALSO, subscribe to this blog using one of the links to the right, where is says subscribe to the blog.

#~#~#

'Nuff for now - TTFN, and AMF (or Adios My Friends)!

Traffic Exchanges and How to Make them Work for You!

Well, that's quite a bold statement. Let's see if I can back it up. I'll be doing just that in the next few days as I set up a "recurring income" system using traffic exchanges, autoresponders, really cheap loss leading value packed ebook products, splash pages, and other funnel oriented techniques. I hope to document it right here, so bear with me as I go about actually doing it. Once it's set up, I'll tell you all about it. But for now, have a little patience.

OK, OK - here's a new resource! The Shagmiser/Filsaime Ultimate IM Resource Affiliate Website - now THAT's a mouthful! I've just put this site together, so go check it out - tell me what you think.

Web 2.0, updated IRS, MLM Squeeze Pages

I've joind the web 2.0 generation. Follow me on twitter and www.twitter.com/shagmiser, and/or be my friend on Facebook; http://profile.to/dickhale/. And, since you all know I love to do videos, follow me on www.youtube.com/shagmiser. Are we having fun yet?

Here are some posts worth your while. They are great examples of what James Grandstaff has created, and they are a new way of marketing. We're giving away free stuff, no strings. and it's good stuff, too: Here are the links:

How to get rich building a lazy downline

The Guru's secret weapon to MLM riches

7 secrets to building a productive downline

How to get rich from ANY MLM Program

Feel free to download any or all 4. They are your for the taking. Now, if you'd like to learn how we did this, check out: Instant MLM Squeeze Pages.

Lately I have been going back through my Internet Retirement System website, weeding out old programs, adding some new stuff, etc. I'd like to revamp the entire thing, but before I do that, I want to finish John Reese's Traffic Secrets 2 course before it gets awy from me. Plus, I need to review Holly Cutter's recent course, see if there's something I missed. If anyone out there reading this is interested in either of these courses, let me know and I'll send you more info.

Tim Brocklehurst has a new guru class starting, so check one of my previous posts for more information. I'd post it again here, but I'm too lazy to look it up.

Enough for now - I've got to go "mow 'de lawn," or as the say in France, "coup 'de graux." (sic!)

Dick "the Shagmiser" Hale

Does The Freedom Class Work?

Does This Really Work? That's what I was asking myself as I tried to learn more about this really facinating class and its inventor/founder/teacher.

You see, I just recently came across this "Freedom Class," a laptop seminar with Tim Brocklehurst. Actually, I heard about it from Martin Avis, and if you've followed me at all, then you know who he is.

He claims that with just 2 days, he can set you up with your own Internet Business set to earn over $66,000 in eight months - and over $100,000 in a year.

The theory is based around the phenomenon of exponential growth, and there are numerous examples of people who have experienced it using effective viral marketing on The Internet.
Viral marketing, it seems, is key to the success of any Internet business. none of the big names online currently would be anything like as successful but for it.

So now, it seems, the whole world is trying to create viral effects to grow their businesses with. Some are succeeding, but many more fail.

So what is it about The Freedom Class, and Tim Brocklehurst, that makes me think there could be something in learning about it this way?

Well, for one thing, the method of learning is intriguing. Tim is using something called "Action Learning" to conduct these classes. Action Learning is a way of learning something by 'doing' it.
On these classes, the participants will bring their own laptops and go through the process of uploading products for sale and giving them an affiliate back-end so that others can sell them too.

Then, they will be giving them a viral boost on the front-end using Tim's own tried and tested viral software, MVS.

His users have had spectacular results with this membership site software. It brings together a wide array of tried and tested viral seeds, triggers and motivators to reach further and get more sign-ups than a normal site could on its own.

Another factor which is sure to help the success of participants, is the mastermind group formation.

Tim is issuing questionnaires to all participants from which a chart of their natural strengths and weaknesses can be drawn. He has identified 5 key skills which everyone possesses with varying degrees, but which are important for Internet Marketing success.

By partnering up with others on the course who have complementary skills, it seems reasonable to expect that useful teams will be made, which can work effectively and achieve more individually than they could on their own.

Overall, I like the sound of this course. For one thing, its good to see a recognized marketer getting out and showing us, rather than hiding behind the Internet. On the other hand, if you prefer to learn at home, then look out for The Freedom Class Home Action Pack once you have registered at the site.

Also, check the video in the upper right of this blog. It explains things?

Membership Site in a Box

This post has to do with recurring payments and automation, and if you can do it, probably the ideal online business to have. Well, Terry Tellford and Edwin Ryan have done it again. They have come up with a newly updated what I call "membership in a box."

One of the biggest problems with running a membership site is content. You have to continuously come up with new and fresh content for your members, or else you'll lose them. And that takes a lot of work. You might as well have a job.

Well, Terry and Edwin have solved that problem for you. They've come up with a Private Label Rights Membership Website that does all the content update for you, plus provides you with:

- a high-converting membership site

- the software to run it

- the option to make any changes to that site, adding our own personalisation

- the flexibility to sell the products at different price points

- a way to offer monthly billing, trial billings, one-time payments, special offers, upsells

- and all the content

They are offering you the chance to Private Label and Clone a new membership website that spits out profits for you on auto-pilot. 24/7. But they are only offering this to the first 350 people who apply. I am not sure how many spots have already been spoken for, but I'm pretty sure there are openings available. If not, cie la vie.

Instead of me going on about it, see how many slots yourself:

Huh? 31.95% DON'T know what a "Squeeze Page" is?

Recently, James Grandstaff revealed something that I found quite interesting...

If you've been around the IM (internet marketing) scene for awhile, you've most likely heard the term "squeeze page" before, right?

At least that's what I thought.

Well, James surveyed approx. 500 people on his list who are interested in making money online. Many stated they were interested in affiliate marketing, product creation, MLM, etc...

One of the questions was "Do you know what a"Squeeze Page" is?"

68.05% answered yes and 31.95% answered NO.

To be honest...
I was shocked that 31.95% said no.

What about you?

In light of this shocking survey data I decided to write this post today to go over the very basics of what a squeeze page is and why you should be using them in your business (if you are not already.)

And for those of you who already use them, pay attention. You will probably learn something too.

Here goes...

A squeeze page which is also known as a "lead capture page" or "name squeeze page" is a simple web page with one purpose; to get your visitor to give you their name and email address so you can follow-up with them. That's it.

One of the best ways to get someone to opt-in to your squeeze page is by offering something of high perceived value such as a mini ecourse or a highly targeted eBook.

For example, let's say you are promoting a multi-level marketing business opportunity. The products are great and you are a raving fan.

Most people would just start promoting the websitethe company supplies. I say no. This is a perfect opportunity to implement the use of a squeeze page and offer something of value first.

That way, you collect the leads, you follow-up with an introduction of yourself and begin building a long lasting business relationship.

In sales, what we are really selling is "us" first, then the product.

You always want to provide value first. Once your prospects warm up to you, then it's time to ask the right questions to determine if your product or business opportunity can help solve their needs.

If you'd like to see a high quality, high converting squeeze page that James has put together, you can visit the link below.

It's important to read the "thank you" page on theother side you can get an idea of how the wholeprocess works.

Until next time...
Yours in success,
Dick

Shades of the Da Vinci Code

I just did my first ever video testimonial, and it’s pretty, uhhh, shakey?, not nearly as professional as those around me. I got me some learnin' to do.

But I think it might be worthwhile laughing at - The Social Media Marketing System.

BTW – I say in the video I’m a Bronze member but by doing that video Brian upgraded me to Silver. I can be bribed. Anyway, if you want a good laugh, go see me in my professional debut as a video testimonial person.

You’ll have to scroll down a bit – but I’m down there somewhere. And why is my screen size is smaller that everyone else’s? No clue – that must be a YouTube thing.

The Social Media Marketing System

Now, what's all this about the Da Vinci Code? Well, Brian has just announced a secret alliance he's just started as part of SMMS, and my Facebook friend and mentor Ian Campbell does the best job of explaining the whole thing. Here's Ian's Link: http://tinyurl.com/3sbtsp

His is an affiliate link, but that's OK, so long as you get the message.

John Reese is almost Ready
John just announced a mid July date for the release of Traffics Secret 2 - which has been highly anticipated. If you want to follow more closely, follow on John's Twitter account. He's uses that almost exclusively to keep the rest of us up to date. Or his latest blog at:
http://www.income.com/blog/2008/06/29/traffic-secrets-20-launch-date/

FaceBook and other Meanderings
Well, I seem to be spending a lot of time on Facebook lately. Since that video I mentioned came out, I've been getting a lot of friends requests, and group invites. It's really great to "talk" to other people from around the globe about their take on internet marketing, Web 2.0 tactics, and just learning from others in general. If you're not yet on Facebook, jump in, the waters fine. Become my friend, and we'll chat. Also, no matter what you niche or finely tuned interest, there's a group out there tailored just for you.

Three Learning and Teaching Resources

If you are just starting on your road to internet marketing, and you want to learn from some of the best, I've got three fairly recent resources for you ................

The first is one of my favorite mentors, Martin Avis. He has built a series of teachings starting you from the ground up ..... called the "Foolproof, No-Nonsense, Kickstart Guide to Making Money Online."

The second is Eric Holmlund, one of the most astute IM guys around. And he is just getting started with his projected 120 video series about marketing online. You can get started at Eric's Tips, but you will have to register, even though it is free.

Last, but certainly not least, is Mike Filsaime whose credentials in IM speak for themselves. His offer, mostly free, is in my blog entry right below this one. Just scroll on down to get the whole story.

There are more guys out there offering a lot of excellent training courses right now, some free, some not so fre, but these 3 resources are my choices. And I wanted to share them with you.

Filsaime Releases The 7 Figure Secrets And Gives it Away Free!

Hello,

Before we get into the meat of this message, there are 3 things I want to cover. First, when you read the sales page, Mike states that the products are free. They are, but the shipping is not. He is asking about $8.95 for S&H which I think is entirely reasonable considering all that you are getting. Also, when you get to the order page, you have to sign up for a free 30 trial of his subscription magazine, after which your CC will be charged $29.95 / month unless you cancel before that, and even though there is a check box there, you cannot unclick it. This is a concept called forced continuity. However, it is easily cancelled. Even on the same day you register to receive Mike's offered products. All you have to do is call the number posted in the order form (631) 615-4597. Really simple, and Mike's copy is really up front about everything. Thirdly, there are a lot of OTO's you have to wade through to get to your free downloads. Look at each one because in some cases there are good deals.

OK - now here is the deal...

Back in February of 2007, Mike Filsaime held a secret Private Workshop at an undisclosed location.

Over 100 people paid $5000 for the Workshop.
He then took those DVD's (Which now sell for $1297) and sold it out in record fashion in under 7 days to 2500 people. Since then... over 3000 people have paid for that information.

The success stories that followed have changed the face of Internet Marketing.
(Filsaime, along with his 37 Staff Members, will do $10,000,000 this year in sales and is credited with showing other marketers how to grow a 7 figure Business.)

BIG DEAL!

Big Deal?

Recently, Mike hired a "TOP GUN" Internet Marketing Expert and Copywriter (That also attended the event.)

Mike Paid this "TOP GUN" $25,000 to watch all 16 DVD's of "The 7 Figure Code" and condense it into a Masterpiece...

THE RESULT...

An 85 Page report, no fluff, with all of the Gold nuggets, Pearls of Wisdom, and action plans for you to get in a 1 hours' read.

That's right, what 100 people paid $5000 for, and had to sit through 3 days, you will get all of the information crammed into 1 report that you can read in 1 sitting.

=============================================

NOW HERE IS THE INSANE PART - IT's FREE

=============================================

That is right, Mike Filsaime was going to sell it for $297.00 and was planning on selling 3000 copies in 7 days.

They are already printed, spiral bound, and sitting at the warehouse ready to ship.
But Mike has decided to ship it to you for...

*** Free *** (Only While supplies Last.)

All Mike Asks is that you pay the shipping (about $8 or so)
That is it. You do NOT have to buy it. You simply tell him where to ship it and he will send it to you for... nothing, zip, nada!

But... IT GET'S EVEN BETTER...

>>> Mike was going to upsell the 18 Full Color Process Maps. ($197 Value)
Mike hired the best Internet Marketing experts on Process Mapping, Rich Schefrens' Strategic Profits, to produce these process maps based on each DVD... 18 in all.

Mike has decided to move the FREELINE even further and give you access to these for Free too (also VERY limited time)

And to prove that Mike has lost his mind (and has clearly landed on the North Pole of Mars,) he is also giving you is best selling "The Butterfly Marketing Manuscript 2.0" ($97 Value) for Free as well!

So here is a RECAP of what you get Free
- The 7 Figure Secrets Printed and Shipped to you Door

- The 18 Full Color Process Maps- The Butterfly Marketing Manuscript Version 2.0
It just went live for a Limited Time and ONLY while supplies last...

So, if you want to be (one of) THE FIRST TO GET your hands on The 7 Figure Secrets, go NOW to:
dickhale.com/recommends/7figurecodepromo.html

To your success,
Dick

PS - Let me see. Today is Friday (6/6) and the site just went live yesterday, so make sure to get your copy ASAP shipped to your door because when the pre printed copies are gone, you will not be able to get your hands on this.

The Instant Internet Consultant

Holly Cotter has just come out with a new mentoring and teaching project that gears up June 7th. It's called the Instant Internet Consultant.

It's about time somebody did this!

We all hear that the secret to success in Internet Marketing is to find a good untapped "Niche" and then market to that niche.

Well there is a niche that I've wanted to pursue for some time, but I just didn't feel I knew enough about the subject, or the niche for that matter .................

UNTIL NOW!

I received an email a few days ago from one of my mentors, Frank Souza. He's the one who told me about Holly's course. And I was really thrilled to learn that Holly was earning very good money by pursing this niche.

It's no secret, the niche I'm talking about is what we call "brick and mortar" businesses. It's the local flower shop, the dentist, the fast food place... the local mechanic, and almost all of the businesses you find when you drive down the street.

They NEED to be marketing their services over the Internet, but most of them don't have a clue how to do it.

Frank mentioned he was at an Internet marketing conference a few months ago and his friend Stu McLaren was talking about he he helped a local fast food business increase their profits dramatically..... with just a few simple things that they did utilizing the Internet.

Now Holly has tapped that market and she will show YOU how you can be a part of it, even if you've never written a website or set up an autoresponder.

http://dickhale.com/recommends/instantinternetconsultant.html

I have known about Holly for awhile now. She has a reputation as an EXCELLENT teacher, and she has a way of making the complex seem simple. I recommend her and her teaching without any reservations at all.... After all, I TOO AM TAKING THE COURSE.

This may not be for everyone, but if you're looking for a business you can start up right away.... and generate money right away... this could be what you have been looking for.

Join me in learning all about this exciting and potentially profitiable niche market .......

There's a new Ebook I have just come across which I predict will become very popular. It presents a strategy for selling any type of product using methods which will never become obsolete. Plus an ingenious twist which will send your traffic rocketing.

The Ultimate SuperTip, written by Harvey Segal (Mr SuperTips) is neatly set out, easy to follow, written without hype and not littered with annoying links. And the cost of this book ?
It's free !

Click Here To See How I Get 25-50 Free Visitors To My Website Every Single Day.

And it ends with an amazing idea for making you money from the book itself. I'd rush to get this book now if I were you at:
http://shagmiser.com/recommends/virtualsupertips.html
(yes, that is my affiliate link - a free book with an affiliate link? Read the book to find out why.)

In this short (37 page) - and free - ebook Harvey has managed to include one unique idea after another on a wide variety of topics starting with his controversial stance on search engines and moving on to
- Getting traffic to your site
- Preselling with free ebooks
- Preselling with articles
- Autoresponders and follow up campaigns
- Ad tracking
- Affiliate marketing
- ClickBank
- Viral marketing
- PDF book creation
- Ebook rebranding
- Creating niche sites
- Resale rights
He even throws in an amazing viral idea at the end

A long time ago Harvey wrote another very good book, called 101 Super Tips, which was very popular. Then he thought up another tip, and came out with a new book called 'The Ultimate Supertip' because quite frankly, it was incredible and still is.

Here is the truly amazing thing - if I haven't mentioned it before - the book is free. That's right - you can download it right now without spending a single penny. You will not even be asked for your email address. There is no list to opt-in to. That in itself is incredible.

Harvey is clever. It takes a guy who has been around for awhile to come up with something so basically simple. He claims he makes more money from this one book than his other 8 combined.

'The Ultimate Supertip' tells you exactly how - and why. And on top of that provides you with everything you need to do the same.

Martin Avis, another well respected persona in IM circles, has a testimonial on page 35 of this latest 2008 edition and he sticks by every word. But don't waste your time reading what he thinks, read the rest of the book - especially chapter 5 which, as Harvey puts it, is 'where the magic starts'.

Download it, read every word and profit from it. It's truly the ultimate: http://shagmiser.com/recommends/virtualsupertips.html

Incidentally, even if you are not an Internet marketer you can make money from this book. On page 30 Harvey tells how one of his affiliates makes $600 per month with no website, no blog, no subscriber list - nothing.

Don't 'do it later' - download your free copy of 'The Ultimate Supertip' right now and read it right away. You won't regret it.
http://shagmiser.com/recommends/virtualsupertips.html - I have; that's why I am telling you about it now.

What are Affiliate Sales?

I've been asked this question many times, exactly what is internet affiliate marketing. Well, Joel Comm just issued a video, answering that very same question. Here 'tis:

Interensting Tidbit - from Martin Avis
Today is the anniversary of the day the Eiffel Tower was inaugurated in Paris - on March 31st, 1899. It contains 18038 pieces of iron, all held together by 2.5 million rivets. Every 7 years the whole thing has to be painted to keep it from rusting, using 60 tons of paint! Gustav Eiffel, the man who designed it, also designed the internal framework inside the Statue of Liberty.

Famous Doctor Secretly Listens in as Top 25 Internet Marketing Millionaires Try to Keep Best Secrets Away from You!

A gentleman named Dr. Mark DeBrincat has at least 25 of the Web's richest millionaires shaking in their Berluti's (that's a $1,830 pair of men's shoes, by the way, in case you didn't already know!)

Why? Simple ...

Dr. Mark had the "privilege" of getting a "sneak peek" insider scoop at 25 of the World's top Internet marketers' collection of best-kept secrets - "secrets" that enable these same millionaires to remain in first-place over everybody else trying to earn a living online.

If you are like the majority of us (yours truly included) you should be appalled by the idea that a small group of "Internet elitists" (less than 0.0034% of all online marketers) are hoarding a collection of strategies, secrets, techniques, tricks and even "marketing weapons" that allow them to control 99.997% of the Web's wealth.

Get it Now - Get It Here ===>>>> Dr. Mark's 25 Top Guru's EBook

This even blows away the widely accepted "80/20 rule" we're all familiar with that usually implies that 20% of the people control or possess 80% of the money.

So, what's Dr. Mark got his hands on?

The ANSWER: Dr. Mark has compiled a collection of 53 of the best-kept secrets from among the aforementioned 25 Internet experts (millionaires!)

Get it Now - Get It Here ===>>>> Dr. Mark's 25 Top Guru's EBook

Each of the 53 secrets is actually a fully-definitive report providing specific detailed instructions showing you exactly how to better-perform in such things as 1. Email marketing, 2. Internet marketing, 3. Advertising, 4. Free promotions, 5. Press releases, and 6. More effective copywriting, etc.

But don't think by any means that just because you recognize one or more of these categories and that you may be familiar with them to some degree that you already know what Dr. Mark has.

That would be the BIGGEST mistake you could possibly make ever!

It's similar to two people who both take karate: one's a beginner while the other is a 7th degree black belt. While both are karate practitioners who study the exact same styles and moves, there is clearly a broad gap (even a canyon!) between their respective skill levels.

Get it Now - Get It Here ===>>>> Dr. Mark's 25 Top Guru's EBook

Likewise, just because you may be doing email marketing to some extent, it doesn't mean that you know "email marketing" like the one Internet expert (from among the 25 Internet experts) who's making $60 million a year online from just email marketing alone!

Or, like one of the other experts (again from the 25 Internet experts) who's making over $180 million a year using just 1-paged websites that contain no graphics, and nothing fancy, yet which churn out cash by the ton daily.

How are they doing his?

That's the "meat and potatoes" found inside Dr. Mark's newly released "25 Internet Experts."

And although all the topics are the same as those discussed generally and openly online among Internet and affiliate marketers alike, the chief differences are the exact details outlining what these experts are doing that's perhaps just a degree or two off from the mainstream (and that's making all the difference in the World!)

What's got these same 25 top gurus so worried s that since Dr. Mark is making his info collection readily available, their worried that the massive wealth they now control may quickly fall into other people's hands (including YOURS!)

If you'd like more information about Dr. Mark's work, you can go here and get a better idea of exactly what he's offering:

So You Wanna Build a Website!

Well, my friend, you've come to the right place. Something not old can be new again. Watch this first - it is awesome!


Check it Out - SBI!
I’ve got a special treat for you, and it’s not something new I just ran across. It’s a product that’s been around for quite awhile (in internet terms), has a very successful track record, and actually works.

Of course, it isn't that new products shouldn’t be considered. It’s just that many of the products that have been around for a while are still top of their class and deserve to be acknowledged as such. Indeed, with new people joining the online marketing community every day, it is vital that they be informed about the tried and tested products before they rush off and potentially waste their money on the latest fads.

One such old favorite is XSitePro. I’m an old time member.

XSitePro is a program that helps you build websites. It was designed from the ground up by Internet marketers, for Internet marketers and incorporates many features that you won't
find in site building software elsewhere.

Best of all, it is dead easy to use. There is a comprehensive tutorial that will have you up and running with the program in under an hour - and building top quality websites not long after.

The program was built to have a short learning curve - but that isn't to say it isn't amazingly powerful. It is. It is just that its power is easy to access and simple to apply.

I wish that could be said of a lot of programs out there!

If you want to build a website - or many websites - but don't want to go to the fuss of learning HTML, or spending days or weeks getting to grips with Dreamweaver, or FrontPage, then XSitePro could be the answer to your web building dreams.

OK – I’ve said my piece. And you’re probably not yet ready to do anything, so just bookmark this post, and when you ARE ready, bring it back up and check out XSitePro.




Thanks for Listening,

PS – Even if you’re not ready, XSitePro has an affiliate program. SO – if you know of anyone that has expressed a desire to build on the internet, either forward this post on, or join their affiliate program yourself, and update the hyperlinks to use your affiliate code in your own email or blog.

New Twist on a Solid Keyword Tool

Ryan Diess has a new technique on Adwords, keywords, and the Google slap. It's on Frank Kern's blog, and well worth watching. It gave me some new ideas, and it might you as well.
Check it Out.

To bring you up to date, I am still working on my new series about how to register a domain name. But after seeing Martin Avis's video, I think I'll hold off. His really does it all, and it really is pretty good and informative.
Check it Out.

That's it for now. Last time I mentioned the Neil Shearing IM 101 book. You can download it for free.
Check it Out.

Neil Shearing's Got a Cool Book Out

We've talked about him before. Neil Shearing is probably one of the best, most honest and forthright internet marketers around, and I've just come across an ebook he put together recently called "101 Short, Sharp, Mini-Articles To Help Your Online Business Succeed." I've had my copy read, and reread, annotated, and dog eared. It's got good stuff.

It's 101 mini articles all about all facets of Internet Marketing, and best of all, it's:

• All-Original
• All Quality Info
• Totally Free! (To Read)
• Totally Free! (To Give Away At Your Site)
• Totally Free! (To Give Away To Your Friends)
• Totally Free! (To Give Away As A Bonus)
• Totally Free! (To Reprint Articles At A Site)
• Totally Free! (To Reprint Articles In An Ezine)

So how do I get it you ask? Easy! Go to my Internet Retirement System's FREE Download Page and click on the download page for Neil's book. I've got more free downloads on the same page, but his book is pretty easy to find.

To better describe the book, let me put it in Neil's own words:

"I've written hundreds of short, sharp mini-articles for my weekly newsletter, and people love them.

"I'm often asked for an easy to download collection of my articles...
...and now I've finally got around to putting 101 of my best mini-articles together!

"I've made it freely available because I think this information can really help you make a success of your online business... hopefully you'll want to pass it on to friends and it can help them too :-)
Find out how good this power-packed ebook is, and how you can make money by giving it away, by downloading it now!"

Are You a N.E.W.B.I.E.?

Well, I am and have been. I've been a newbie for so long, I am now an old newbie.

Does this sound at all like you?
N.othing
E.ver
W.orks
B.ecause the
I.nternet
E.hausts my brain!!

If that is the case, then like millions of others you suffer from a classic case of the NEWBIE syndrome. My friend and mentor, Joel Therien, has just released a new home study course and boot camp where he has revealed how he built up both of his companies into Multi MILLIONdollar residual income businesses.

Joel, as an underground marketer, has built 2 online businesses that gross millions of dollars in residual income.

Now he is sharing HOW he did it! These are some of the most advanced techniques I have ever seen!

Visit A to Z Millions, my Knowledge Building Landing Site, and let Joel and his team show you the "newbie" ropes firsthand.

This is a great site for people who lack the skills to develop a truly successful business online, and want to do something about it. The education from this site is top notch!

Remember, it's the A to Z Millions knowledge base you need to get your butt in gear, to get started, and to actually start making money on the internet.

I am also highlighting Joel's new course offering at my main site, the Internet Retirement System, so check it out.

New Updated Site Just Released

Our good buddies over at Combustion Media just released their new site at Combustion Media.Net. The site is totally Flash, and really is quite amazing. You really have to click on over there and check out their animation, and store fly overs. And feel free to comment on the site via this blog entry, and I'll make sure they get any and all comments. They really would like the feedback.

I've been doing some website and database maintenance for our amigos over at the Dallas Dinner Table, which is now slated for March 19th this year. If you'd like to know more about this very worthwhile organization, read all about it at our newly updated website, the Dallas Dinner table.Com.

And where would I be if I didn't mention at least one promotional item. Actually, I've talked about it before (on my Beachmiser Blog), and it has to do with not letting your brain atrophy and wither away. It must be exercised, to delay the onset of Alzheimer's and just plain old mental laziness. What's the old adage, use it or lose it? Well use it, and we've found a site to help you do just that. it's called My Brain Trainer. Check it out.

Lady Doc Gets Death Threats for Revealing TOP SECRET Fat Loss Secret to General Public

A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to forever shed countless pounds, stay healthy, and add many years to your life!

A lady doctor from Arizona has blown the lid off the best-kept secret in weight loss ever discovered -- and this has the whole diet food and drug industries turned upside down and in nothing less than a torrential uproar.

Her name is Dr Suzanne Gudakunst, and she's marching to the beat of a different drum.

And no, nothing about her "secret" is difficult -- nor does it require that you do something completely out of the ordinary or anything unnatural.

Instead, the Arizonian boasts proudly "...this is something that I caught onto just before 2002 when there was so much research and exploration going around concerning the human colon and digestive system working in harmony with nutritional absorption, and I started doing independent studies just to test things at first ... but which I later expanded on after seeing some fantastic results."

This same woman medical practitioner went on to accurately determine a definitive correlation between harmful plague and parasitic infestations of the human bowel tract, and people suffering chronic obesity -- and who despite intense diet and exercise appeared to be unable to lose any weight whatsoever.

Over the course of six years the Arizona doctor developed a number of natural treatments for the removal of these same harmful, even life-threatening plaques and rapidly reproducing digestive parasites -- and when applied to even worse-case patients suffering extreme obesity (98% of which were in immediate danger of dying) she saw a 100% effectiveness and success rate.

She then borrowed from her research on the severely obese, and applied the same strategies on milder cases of overweight persons -- only to find the same effectiveness and quality results as described above (although the individual weight loss per subject wasn't nearly as much as those obese patients 100 lbs to 200 lbs or more overweight).

So powerful is her secret that she's able to reverse diabetes, rid illness altogether in people suffering from cancer (linked directly to poor diet and overweight factors), as well as an elimination of an entire spectrum of serious and otherwise life-threatening diseases.

Nearly 100% of all her case subjects were told in the alternative by "conventional doctors" that they either had just months or years to live, or they would never live a life anything resembling remotely a "normal" existence -- yet after applying Dr Suzanne's treatments saw a complete contradiction to others doctors' prognoses.

Again, nothing about her secret is unnatural or requires someone to do any major action or modification in their lives.
In fact, her entire treatment is based completely on built-into-nature 'protection agents' scattered throughout the world in the form of select herbs, extracts, and organic constituents, and which can be found in a variety of plants -- but when combined in specific combinations and carefully chosen amounts make for a solution to what is perhaps the world's worst ever plague: OBESITY (and the illnesses and diseases resulting from it -- or at least severely aggravated or exacerbated by it).

Now to everyone else's great gain, whether suffering from just a few extra pounds and inches, to those extremely fat and overweight, this brave, bold lady doctor is releasing to the general public her secret for forever destroying the tight unrelenting closed-fist of obesity's stronghold over the now more than 40% of Americans labeled obese, and others worldwide.

But she's not promising any of us for how long.

Some experts and sociologists suggest that in the bigger scheme of things, the world will never tolerate a discovery of such magnitude, any more than it would be realistic to expect a car that runs on water (even if very real) to ever become commercially available to the general public for day-to-day use.

One well-respected and famous diet & wellness author wrote years ago that if anyone ever "truly unlocked the keys to permanent fat loss, they may actually suffer the same fate as JFK."

It is currently available at:

=> http://viralurl.com/beachmiser/DocSuzanneDiet

...so you may want to head on over there now and get it and before someone or "something" gets it forever yanked out of ever getting in YOUR hand at least.

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 rapid, massive weight loss and extremely improved and enhanced health, now made freely available to the rest of us?

Sterling Valentine and Suitcase Coaching

Yesterday, Sterling Valentine opened up his Six Figure Suitcase coaching program. If you missed it, you can see it at http://www.sixfiguresuitecase.com/. He got on a plane to come to Las Vegas to speak at an event, and actually over sold the coaching program by 20 spots. If he refunds those spots, he will have a lot of ticked off people. So what he has now done is opened up a second class for another 50 people.

Liz Tomey, one of my coaches, and one very sharp lady, is not only promoting this program for Sterling, she is also going to be attending the coaching workshop herself. So she not only talks the talk, she really does walk the walk. Plus, she is throwing in some good bonuses if you register through her link:
http://www.sixfiguresuitecase.com/

I just heard from Liz that she just got done talking with Sterling and he reported that there aren't very many spots left in this group either, so if you're going to get in, now is the time...http://www.sixfiguresuitecase.com/

He's also throwing in a few more bonuses. Like the audios from the Big Seminar, and a 30 minute one-on-one consultation with him after you complete the coaching. This will really jump start putting this system into play for you. Sterling has really gone above and beyond with this, and I can't wait to learn this system with you. Yes, along with Liz, I'm in this coaching group too! I'll be learning with you!

Liz has also thrown in some bonuses of her own. You can see them at
http://imtruth.com/im-truth-newsletter/six-figure-suitcase-launches
Yes, they are big time bonuses, but she truly believes that anyone taking this coaching can succeed, so she wants to do her part too. So, act fast now! Head over to http://www.sixfiguresuitcase.com/ right now and grab your spot...

To your success...

ViralURL Takes Off

If you have finally stepped into the world of making money online. then you too, like the others, have decided to start with the affiliate programs. Also, you must have heard that it’s not a big deal to make good money with affiliate marketing, provided you choose the right programs and do some strategic planning while promoting your affiliate products. So far so good.

Whether you are promoting other people’s products or promoting your own products - that doesn’t matter because after all it is nothing but your own business and your means to earn good money. So whichever be your case, I am sure you would not want to leave money on the table and invite others to steal your share of profit.

Even though the industry of affiliate marketing is pretty competitive but if you are cautious and are strategic in your marketing techniques then, it could be very profitable for you.

Take a close look at the industry, you will see that not every one who gets into affiliate marketing is successful. People who are doing well leave no room for failure and take all security measures and understand its importance.

Yes! Security is one of the key factors in affiliate marketing. If you do not adopt proper security measures, then your business will be at high risk. One of the most important way to restore security is to protect your affiliate links. Do not take them for granted. A bit of carelessness on your part in regards to affiliate links may cost you a lot of dollars.

Do you know the long complicated links that you send to your prospective customers not only look convoluted but they can create a lot of problems too! If you send such an affiliate link to your customers, then the smart ones will definitely figure out that you are promoting someone else’s product and they would rather visit the parent company. Also, if your link does not function then your customers have to type a really long URL into the browser, which will definitely put him or her off.
You could be a victim of even a worse situation. What if some devious Internet pirates steal your affiliate links and replace them with theirs. If they do that, then you get no commission at all.

Did I scare you off with all of the above possibilities? Well, that certainly wasn’t my intention. I just wanted to open your eyes and state facts that actually happen in the world of Internet. It happened with me until I came across ViralURL , that brought a revolution to my online ventures.
So, if you are not getting the desired results out of your affiliate marketing,don’t lose hope. There’s definitely a remedy to this problem and that is ViralURL.com

Do I hear you asking, what is it and how can it help in averting any adverse situation for an affiliate marketer like me?Be patient and read on, if you love your business.

ViralURL is a link cloaker that protects you in the truest sense. There may be many unethical people lurking around, who might play with your affiliate links by cutting them off or replacing them with their own etc. How much effort you put in towards building your business and advertising your business, if your links are tampered with, then all your hard work will be rendered useless.

In order to avoid such a rip off, ViralURL gives you full protection and sees to it that your affiliate links never get exposed to others.

So save yourself from getting ripped. Get all the commissions to your account that you rightfully deserve. All this is made possible by ViralURL.com

It is a blessing for every affiliate marketer like you and me, who wants to achieve success in their endeavor.

Is ViralURL limited to only link protection?

NO!

It does much much more than that. Let’s see what ViralURL can do for us:

• ViralURL helps us in protecting commission.
• ViralURL helps in building mailing lists.
• ViralURL helps in tracking statistics.
• ViralURL helps in earning extra ad credits.

In short, ViralURL allows us to create massive business leverage.I don’t see any negative aspect associated with ViralURL. All you have to do is join it for free, then cloak your links, promote them and see your business soaring higher and higher.

You can get all detailed information about the program from the site

www.ViralURL.com . There, you can find several unsolicited testimonials from various users of ViralURL. So if you want to protect your business and see your earnings grow, try ViralURL. You have nothing to lose with it.

Completely New Venture

Actually, it's an ongoing venture that's taken a new twist. Kiosk, probably one of the best hosting companies around, has just issued a new franchise capability, and I took advantage of it. It's like having your own, automatic website specific for Kiosk.WS. Check it out at my Kiosk Deals and Offers site. I mean, this is too cool. AND, if you're in the market for a hosting site that actually caters to internet marketers, then this is the place for you. Joel Therien has put together one of the best packages around, with a ton of extras and options. What more can I say? Not much, and my NEW KIOSK HOSTING SITE can spell it out much better that I can. See for yourself: Kosk Hosting.

OK - I am starting some new ed courses on SEO, blogging, video capture, and other internet marketing related topics here, like right away. As I learn new things I can pass along, I'll do so right here. So get yourself an RSS feed to this blog so you'll know when I do post.

'Nuff for now - I'm off to learn more (and more, and more .........).

Lawnchair Miliionaire and Downline Secrets 2

Heads up, gang. I just came across a new home business that is less than $30 per month and offers a subscription to what has got to be the craziest, easiest, and most fun ways to make money online.

Just me, my computer, and an Internet connection is all it takes. They say I'll only have to work less than 1 hour per day Monday through Friday and I will more than likely can make more in that hour than I would all day at work. And, this thing is just started to take off .............

It's called the Lawnchair Millionaire, and I like it because it's so automatic, and worth a serious look see. More details are at the link below...
The Lawnchair Millionaire.

James Grandstaff, that really successful internet marketer, has just upped the ante with his Downline Secrets 2 package, a complete upgrade fro his original Downlie Secrets package. This one is also really easy to implement. Here the Link - Downline Secrets 2.

Kiosk has a new tool for Business

Just yesterday, Kiosk released a really cool new business tool, Powerpoint on the web, and they are offering a limited time trial period for anyone to try it out. If you're in business, and you need to do presentations over the web using Powerpoint, then this new tool is for you. I'll post more here later with the trial links, and more info later today.

Speaking of Kiosk, they are one of my main hosting providers, and my fav for all the tools and support they provide. There are some major internet marketers out there using Kiosk, so we can't all be wrong. Plus, they are always running specials of some kind, so if you're looking for a host provider that is oriented towards doing business on the web, you couldn't find one. Follow this link: http://wwkiosk.com/members/shagmiser/ultimate_host.php.

Read the previous post. It's about Rich Sheferin's release of his part 2 of the Attention Age Doctrine. This is a must have for today's netrepreneur. See the Post and Follow this link:

I'm Lazy, You're Lazy, We're All Lazy

I'm not sure if we're all that lazy or not, but if you're doing any kind of Affiliate Internet Marketing (in capital letters) then you're in for a treat. Chris Rempel. who calls himself One Heck of a Lazy Super Affiliate has just released a new book called "Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate." But believe me, he ain't lazy, not with the thought he's put into his sales page, which isn't really a sales page at all but a blueprint skinny of his actual book. As Chris says, "The more action you take, the more money you'll make," and he seems to live by that rule. Don't take my word for it, go check out his sales page for "Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate" and you'll see what I mean. And if you already know what you're doing, then you can use his sales page as a blueprint and not even buy the book. Now that's a deal. And think about it, if he put that much knowledgeable savvy into the sales page, think what the book must hold. I've already got my copy.

On another front, and speaking of lazy affiliates, Dr. Mike and Eric Louviere's new Lazy Affiliate System is chock full of stuff you can really use to market affiliate products, including the site itself. For those who may be a little confused, the Lazy Affiliate System is the combination of Affiliate Sales Letters and Affiliate Sales Videos, two distinct memberships all rolled into one package! Here's an excerpt from their sales page: "If You Ever Wanted To Make An Absolute Fortune As An Affiliate Marketer - Being As Lazy As You Want To Be - Then This Is Your Luxury-VIP-Ticket To Smashing Success With Passive-Online-Income... Guaranteed!" Uh-Huh! Sounds like hype, but actually it isn't because, I've been on their site, am a member, and they really do deliver on the hype. This membership site is the real deal, and they've got more stuff on Affiliate Marketing coming out all the time. As Ian Mathew would say, you've got to "invest in yourself!" Click Here to read their sales page.

Speaking of Affiliate Sales and Marketing, there are 2 people who wrote the book on this subject.

One is Rosaland Gardner, who I consider the Godmother of Affiliate Marketing. She's been doing it very successfully for many years, and is probably one of the most respected affiliate marketers on the planet. Her book is called the Super Affiliate Handbook, and in it, this latest version for 2007, she talks about Blogging, Market Research, Affiliate Programs, Web Design, Problem Avoidance, and on and on. this should be considered the ultimate reference book on Affiliate Marketing.

Then there's Ewen Chias Secret Affiliate Weapon. Or as you seen it referred to before, SAW. Ewen Chia is probably one of the most successful affiliate marketers around, and to not take advise and mentoring from him is wasteful.

Yes, these are all affiliate links, mostly to Clickbank. If you'd like to review any of the products offered above, just click on the hyperlink. If you decide you'd like to buy from any of those links, I will make an affiliate fee.

But, if you'd like to save some money by buying from your own affiliate code, then read about how to do that from my online article, Saving on Clickbank. I promise, I won't be offended. We're all here to help each other, right?

Working on a new Blog

As part of a course I'm taking, and in order to post some examples of stuff that I play around with, or to just ramble on about nothing, I've created a new blog called (of all things) Dick Hale's blog. CIO - or Check it Out.

One of the first entries is about the new Nutronix pay plan, and the post itself tries to explain it a little better than the official explanations, although those were pretty good also. My friend and mentor, Lana Flack, put these thoughts together, so really, if you're at all interested in my new blog, check out the Dick Hale Blog.

Speaking of this new course, Liz Tomey's Website Traffic Training, I'm going to be really busy over the next few weeks concentrating on Liz's course, so these postings may space out a bit. But I will try and keep you all up to date on any tidbits I may come across in the course of taking Liz's course.

Have you seen my new ad site for Automatic Builder? Pretty cool if I do say so myself, and obviously, I do. So jump on over and see for yourself. I call it American Dream, but I realise that's a bit conceited on my part, but so what! It's my site. Anyway, if you do sign up you'll be inserted into my email course about succeeding on the Internet (2nd or 3rd email into the series), which has nothing to do with Automatic Builder. It's just that AB is a good way to build an online business and reap some additional coin if you will. It fits the profile I mention in my flagship site, The Internet Retirement System.

Enough for now - I've got some homework to do, so TTFN, and
I Wish You Enough.

Time - Where does it go!

I just realized I haven't posted for like 10 days. Wow, what a bummer. I've been meaning to, but time just slipped away what with other projects and all. If you want to see what I've been up to, Frank Salinis from The Traffic Secret has given me a special promotion, and I've been pushing that. Check it out at Your Key to Succeed. Go ahead and sign up and my autorepsonder will send you a really good series on what it takes to market on the internet, along with list building ideas, etc. It's not bad, even if I do say so myself.

So, what else it hot? Besides the aforementioned The Traffic Secret, there's ViralURL with its affiliate cloaking AND list build capabilities. I have been promoting that as well, both on my flagship site, as well as promotional emails to my list builders. By why The Traffic Secret you might ask. Well, until he reaches 2,500 members, Frank is keeping the upgrade price REALLY low to attract attention. And, boy howdy, is he. This is one of the hottest list mailers on the net right now. It really is worth your time to check it out. The Traffic Secret, you'll see what I mean.

This next piece of news is really time limited, so pay attention, because the special ends 9:00 AM this coming Monday, Nov 12th. Kiosk.WS is running a fire sale right now, and it's one of the best I've seen yet. 'Nuff said here, just go Check it out. But if you have no idea what it is that Kiosk.WS does, let Joel Therien, CEO, tell you all about it:

View Joel's Video.

Codrut Turcanu clears up the Mystery

Appropriate for Halloween?
Was it $30,000 in 20 days, or $300 in 20 days? He kept flipping back and forth in his copy, and blog. But he cleared it up. According to Codrut, he "forgot to mention that only 100 newbies will have the chance to participate in the '$30,000 In 20 Days Challenge'. So 100 multiplied by $300 each is $30,000 and that’s why I changed the headline from $300, to $30,000 ...." OK - I'm now cleared up, how 'bout you? Read his entire post here: http://www.codrutturcanu.com/30000-in-20-days/ then comment, and/or sign up to be on the inside track when he does release his program. This is not an affiliate link or anything like that, just an FYI for all you newbies out there so you can check it out for yourself.

Traffic Secrets(?)
Frank Salinas has a new traffic generating script just out - http://viralurl.com/shagmiser/Traffic-Secrets. What makes this site so different and such a secret? Members - can post their ads more often and get paid bigger commissions compared to the rest -and have the chance to earn residual income. You can earn up to 100% commissions residually every month PLUS up to 50% commissions on all of your referrals' credit purchases. That's huge! It is definately worth checking out -

Codrut Turcanu is at it Again

Codrut Turcanu, that crazy Romanian, one of my favorite Internet Marketers, is at it again. This time he's issued a challange. He's saying he can make you a minimum of $300 in 20 days, with No list, No website, NO Blog, NO product of your own, and NO paid advertising. Oops, can he meet this kind of challange? Well, I'm going to see what happens, myself. It could be interesting. Here's some more details on his blog, http://www.codrutturcanu.com/blog/300-in-20-days/, and be sure and comment.

OK - on to some other stuff. Our campaign to build our downline team in Automatic Builder is really taking off, and I'm starting to see some real progress. It's one of our top 3 recommendations for my Internet Retirement System site. If you haven't taken the tour yet, go ahead and do so. Once I'm notified you've actually signed up to take the tour, I've got a really cool, free e-book for you, something sure to help you with your network business.

There seems to be a whole raft of mentoring programs out there right now, and everyone seems to be jumping on the bandwagon. From Mile Filsaime and Russell Brunson to Keith Wellman and others, it seems as if everyone who's ever made significant money on the internet now wants to mentor us. Personally, I think that's a good thing, but really watch your costs on these offerings because they can be pretty high. So, my advise? Really know who it is that's making the mentoring offer. Make sure he or she (yes, Liz Tomey is also coaching) knows their stuff and is charging accordingly, and that they promise to keep the number of mentorees (sic) to a reasonable level (under a 100 or so). Is there any one-on-one included in the offer? Is there a supported help line? That's just a few of the things I'd look for. But be that as it may, having a personal mentor can be a really good thing to help you get off the ground. That's why Condrut's little offer (above) is interesting. It's got manageable scope and resonable expectations.

A Couple of New Launches

Dr. Jon has just released V5 of his "Get Google Ads Free" book. It's like almost completely rewritten, and has some new techniques and insights. It is worthwhile checking out, but don't let the free part fool you. Google's still making their coin, in fact they've actually (if not) endorsed the technique Dr. Jon talks about, they're certainly not against it. Basically, the free is relative in that it's supposed to be a zero sum game. What you spend up front you make up for on the back end. Curious? Get a copy.

Dr. Mike and Howie Schwartz have just launched their Lead Generation 3.0, and it is simply amazing. I took the 10 day beta challange, and even though I didn't do very well at all (other things kept me from really getting into it), from what I could see, they've put together a truly ground breaking lead generation system that could make you a lot of money in the long run. You really have to check it out to see what I'm talking about.

I'm still working on constantly improving my Internet Retirement System website. Do me a small favor, go CIO and tell me what you think. I could use the critique. And feel free to comment at any time on this blog, and my other Beachmiser Blog.

OMG - Free Stuff

Yeah, I think I am going crazy. Thanks to Jeremy Gislason and his Sure Fire Wealth membership site, I've just posted some really relevant free e-books on my Internet Retirement System site that I truly believe can do you some good. I am gonna make this post really short so you can get over there right now and check what I've posted. Just click on the hyperlink, then click on Free Download Page in the nav links.

Reiteration - the Tintinabulation of the Bells

OH! I think I meant aliteration. However, I do need to reiterate something I posted awhile back, and is worth repeating. One of the best books to read when it comes to an entreprenurial philosophy that can be transmuted into material wealth is Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich, and I built a site some time back where you can download it for free. Here 'tis:
http://www.shagmiser.com//mustreadbooks/.

Now, DO NOT bother to sign up for the opt-in list (I don't use it anymore, just to lazy to take it off) to get your copy. Simply use this link:
http://www.shagmiser.com//mustreadbooks/subscribers-only.htm
to download your free copy. There's also some other e-books on there, but Napoleon Hill's is the most significant. If you are new to IM and entreprenurial endeavors, this is a great book to get started with. If you're a business entreprenuer, you just might be interested in these books.

Set your clocks back 1 hour Sunday, Nov 4th, one week later than in the past.

Is this your Business

How High's the Water, Mama?

Then Johnny Cash would sing, "Well, it's 5 feet high and risin' !" That's how I feel about all the hype and hyperbole going on out the in IM land right now. Everybody's giving all this high flying advise but nobody is giving us the down and dirty details on HOW they get it done, except maybe a few. And Liz Tomey is one of those few, along with Neil Shearing, Jim Daniels, and John Reese. I've posted some earlier comments about these folks before, so I'll let you find the specific ones.

Another lady who is "telling it like it is" is one of my mentors, Ann Seig. You have got to review her free e-book "The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing" if you're either into MLM's, or are thinking about it. And I've got a free copy for you on my download page - so CIO.

If you haven't been to my companion site, where I talk about the Retirement Red Zone, then head on over to The Internet Retirement System. I am constantly tweaking this thing, so join my (double) opt-in list and keep up with what I'm doing. I advocate programs, systems, and ideas to help keep you afloat (or should I say, indulge in that much needed extra income) in these trying times.

NO ONE LEFT BEHIND

I cannot start to tell you guys how excited I am to have found and joined this site. If you're curious about what it is I'm talking about, go there now:
http://www.gibline.com/shagmiser

And no, it's not about G.W.'s school plan.

It's called GIBLink, and it's the newest and best thing in Internet 2.0 (they call it 2.5 but who's quibbling?), especially for anyone, and I mean anyone, involved in Internet Marketing.

First off, it is a networking site like My Space. They estimate there will be 500,000 members by December. This part of the program is called Giblink and it has everything you could want in a networking site. Blogs, places to advertise your own sites, ways to include or exclude people you want in your network, an html editor to set up your ads and on and on. You really need to see this to understand the work that has gone on in planning the network side of this site.

The other part of the program is called Gibline. Gibline is a payplan where everyone gets paid as they cycle through the program. We are talking about large sums of money for those who get in early, checks like 25,000 and 50,000 and evenup to 1 million dollars when you cycle to 15 pods.

I can't say this enough times.

You must be in this early in order to take full advantage of the cycling process which happens over and over again and as you cycle you get more cycle pods added to your line. More pods means more money.

I'm not hiding the affiliate link on this one because I want you to see what it looks like.

One Day Older and Deeper in Debt

That's what ole' Tennessee Ernie Ford sang about. Remember the song? It's called "16 Tons" and it was put out an awfully long time ago, somewhere around the late 50's if memory serves. But the sentiment is still the same today, especially in these days and times what with the mortgage crisis and all. And it's especially true if you're retired, or just working from home "trying to make a living."

If you haven't figured out the secret yet, here's a hint. It's called Passive Income, of the "set and forget" variety. And I've got 2 resources to help you with establishing "set and forget" type programs that produce passive income.

The first is my site, the Retirement Income System where I talk about all sorts of interesting ideas and projects you can get going on. Here's a link to my favs right now - CIO (check it out).

The other is a video course just released by Neil Shearing called (and this IS right up our respective alleys) "Passive Cashflow Secrets" and it is available right now. Now, is that not opportune or what. And until Wednesday of this week, Neil is keeping the cost really low, so you've got to act fairly quickly. CIO at:
www.dickhale.com/recommends/passivecashflowsecrets.html

I mean anyone could use some passive income right now. So we're not just limiting ourselves to retirees. We're talking stay-at-home Moms, second income searchers, college kids looking for extra spending money, just about anyone needing some extra change in their pocket.

And there really no better way than passive income using the Internet.

It's TGIF, and Time's a Wastin'

Jim Daniels has a new post out, and it is rather timely. He discusses 2 potential "holes" that might be in your business, and what you might be able to do to patch them up. You can read about it at his BizWeb e-Gazette. And while you're there, reconsider getting his "New Age Work at Home Plan" if you haven't already. This is one book I've really gotten a lot out of, and I highly recommend it to you. However, since you're reading about it here, you need to order it through me from my Digital Shores site so that I'll get the referrals. The report is free, but if you decide on the upsales, I'll get the credit. So there.

My other blog, the Beachmiser Blog, is spouting off about one more Alaskan Cruise video that just got posted. If you've never seen Sitka, Alaska from a kayak, then this is not the video for you. But it is about kayaking in and around the Sitka wilds.

Some of you may know my good friend Blaine. Well, his Dad just passed away the other night, and we'd like to send out our sincerest condolences and fond remembrances to Glen, Blaine and their family, especially his Dad's family and friends. Glen was 98+ when he fell asleep for the final time, and he will be fondly remembered. He was a very unique individual (to say the least) and a person that was just an honor to know. I felt privileged to call him a friend.

Are your taxes done? The automatic extension is up this coming Monday, so if you're a heavy procrastinator like me, don't let this slip by. 'Nuff said.

OK - it's TGIF and almost tea time for a T cubed. Hoist one in memory of Glen, he'd like that!

Neil Shearing Does It Again

One of the most respected online marketers, Neil Shearing, has just released an incredible set of movies. I strongly urge you to check them out...
http://scamfreezone.com/t.cgi?a=207292&e=/cashflow/

Why should you take a look? Well, Neil is an expert at creating Passive Cashflow. That means, he sets up a revenue stream and then forgets about it... while it keeps putting money into his back account. Neil says this is the only way for lazy people, like him, to get rich online. :-)

In one example, he shows how he earned $82.95 from Adsense in just one day, from one website which he claims builds itself! In another example he'll show you how he's still earning money from a site he set up which has earned him $30,240 over seven years! How many people do you know who have been earning "hands free" money online for that long?

There are other examples... one autoresponder put an extra $8,257 pure profit into his hands with no effort... one affiliate program paid him $26,704 passive income in a year. You see, there are lots of people who talk nonsense about making money online, but Neil isn't one of them. He's been earning cash online for over ten YEARS and all his products are of tried and tested, proven techniques.

Check out Neil's movies on creating passive cashflow right now, while you're thinking about it. http://scamfreezone.com/t.cgi?a=207292&e=/cashflow/

Major Updates

There are a couple of quick things to announce:

1. I've just updated my main site - The Internet Retirement System (dot com) and it now seems a lot cleaner, more straight forward, but still chock full of lots of "set and forget" and other ideas. Check it out - I think you'll really notice the improvement. Tell me what you think.

2. I've just signed on for Neil Sheering's new course about passive income programs, which is (obviously) right up my alley. So stay tuned, RSS this blog, and I'll keep us all updated as I learn new and wonderful things from Neil's course.

3. I am close to posting another Alaskan Cruise video, so check the Beachmiser Blog for news of that.

That's it for now - I just wanted to get these thought out whilst I was thinking of them.

Free List Building Service

I've just come across a new list building service called Business World List. Janet LeGere pointed me towards it, and am I glad she did. It's free to join, but as a free member you can only send out to 200 optins every 48 hours. As an upgraded paid member you can send out to there entire database of over 72,000 optin members every 48 hours. That's quite a difference. Plus, you can opt-out of all the member ads, and for only - what - $12.95 a month.

I've started off as a free member, just to check it out, but at that price I'll probably upgrade pretty soon. CIO at http://www.businessworldlist.com/members/index.cgi?shagmiser - and I mean really CIO.

OK - on to some other stuff. I'm going to get really dangerous here pretty soon because I'm taking some personal coaching from the offices of Ann Sieg. You all remember her, right? The Renegade Network Marketer? I bought her book awhile back (also called the Renegade Network Marketer interestingly enough), and part of that purchase was 30 minutes of consulting with one of her hand picked councilors. So maybe by the time she's through with me, I'll be really dangerous. One can only hope.

Anyway, she did publish a free e-book I'd like to pass along to you. It's called the "7 Great Lies of Network Marketing." Just right click on the underlined hyperlink and we'll take you there. There's no list gathering info to fill out or anything like that, just Ann's cool little book.
