Blogging your way to Success

Niche marketing is one of the hottest things going in Internet Marketing today, and blogging about that niche market is the best way to monetize that niche. But how do you go about doing that? How do you find your niche, how do you set up a blog, how do you research for the best keywords for your blog, how do you drive traffic to your niche blog, and exactly how do you make money from it?

Whoa! That's a lot of questions. But they must be answered if you want to have any hope at succeeding with niche market blogging. That's where Niche Blog Advantage comes in, and where Jason Johns new product really shines. This hot new product is so new off the press, even Jason hasn't really started promoting it yet, at least not as of this writing.

Niche Blog Advantage

If you've heard the name Jason Johns before, it's probably because of his product from about a year ago, WordPress DeMystified, all about how to build WordPress Blogs. That was an excellent course that not only sold well, but taught a lot of people about using WordPress to create their own blogs.

Now he's gone to the next step, teaching you all about Niche Blogging. And it doesn't hurt that (according to Martin Avis) he sounds a lot like Ricky Gervais in both humor and tone. But he's not doing this for the laughs. This is a detailed course that takes you from A to Z while looking over his shoulder the entire time. Very close to an OJT technique (On the Job Training), if you know what I mean.

OK, here's the skinny. The course is in 4 basic parts:

First off, there's a whole mess of videos (11 to be exact) on how to go about picking your niche. This is a major topic, and one that Jason covers in detail.

Next, he goes into master keyword research. This is not an art, but a science, which he truly demystifies (12 videos).

Then he goes into the meat of the thing, how to build an effective and profitable niche based WordPress blog both quickly and easily.

And finally, everything you could ever want to know about traffic generation.

But just when you thought it was safe to jump into these niche marketing waters, he covers even more bases with bonus videos on Twitter, Automated Blogging, and that hot topic - CPA offers. Now that's a package worth taking to the bank.

Niche Blog Advantage

Now to your final question, how much does it cost. Well, Jason has priced this entire course very low. Just like Chubby Checker used to say, "How Low can you Go?" In this case, extremely low. In fact, he might just wake up to that fact and re-price it, but until he does, it's to your advantage to jump on this price while you can.

When you see the price, you'll probably ask yourself, "can this course be any good at this cheap price?" Yes it can, and yes it is - because it's content and the way he teaches it is priceless.



Here's a sample - from Jason's Intro Video:


Remember, this is just a sample. The video you'll receive is a 640 X 480 high resolution video.

To our continued success,

Empowerment, Blueprints, and Fulfilling Your Goals

I love that word - empowerment. Makes me want to sit up, take notice, puff my chest out, and say "Yeah! I am somebody." What a great feeling, knowing I'm on the right track towards fulfilling one of my goals. It's part of my overall blueprint, my road map towards success. And if you don't have a blueprint, you need one.

Right now, I've got a blueprint for you that will cost you nothing.

Yes, it really is true. Because two of the Internets most successful affiliate marketers, who make hundreds of thousands of dollars in commissions every year and regularly feature in the top ten lists of super affiliates are spilling the beans on how they do it.

And - once their secrets are YOUR secrets - it's no exaggeration to say this could empower you to step up to a whole new life where the old limits of money and time don't apply.

Because one of the major techniques they are going to reveal is how to keep getting paid for sales you made ages ago. So can you see what that means?

You can position yourself to receive an increasing and reliable monthly income, whilst you get to work setting up ever increasing amounts of affiliate commissions - or simply relax and enjoy your new found wealth.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg, because if you've tried affiliate marketing and couldn't quite get it off the ground or are making a reasonable income, but want to take it to the next level then this program will definitely help you. What's more ... it won't cost you a single red cent. Now or in the future.

Yes, you can click this link: http://dickhalerecommends.info/webprofitplans/ and gain immediate access to the whole program and there's no immediate payment ... no payment in seven days ... in fact, nothing at all to pay - ever.

It's simply that Jeremy and Simon find making vast affiliate commissions so effortless now, they want you to short circuit some of the problems they experienced getting to where they are now.

Then - only if you choose to - you can become an affiliate for this program, yourself. That means you'll be able to start your stable of top quality products with a sort-after program from two of the most respected and effective marketers on line today.

So here's just a tiny taster of what you'll find inside this eye-opening program...

* The three fatal mistakes most affiliates make without even knowing they can murder their chances of success.

* The lightening-fast way to decide if a product will be worth your time and trouble promoting for maximum profits.

* The closely guarded secrets to pre-selling your affiliate product BEFORE you send the prospect to the vendor's site.

* How to locate poorly promoted - yet red-hot - products that will fill your bank account, while everyone else wonders what happened.

* Squeeze page mastery and how to build a super responsive list for future effort-free promotions.

... and much more besides.

Right now, this program is available totally free of all charges.

But information this good won't stay that way for long and I've already heard there are plans afoot to sell this for $27. Still an amazing bargain, when you consider the life-changing secrets inside - but why not be smart and grab it, right now, from: http://dickhalerecommends.info/webprofitplans/ while it's still completely FREE?



That's it for today - I'm going back to Fishing in Retirement.

Dream Big - It Can't Hurt

An Author, who remains anonymous, once said this:

“You will never live life beyond your wildest expectations until you
first have some wild expectations.”

This comes from Mat Morris and his Unemployed Millionaire book. Here's the link to Amazon, if you're interested:
The Unemployed Millionaire: Escape the Rat Race, Fire Your Boss and Live Life on YOUR Terms!

One of the things I have been thinking about for awhile is helping my Mom earn some extra income via the Internet, to supplement her meager fixed income. She's in assisted living, and has little room for extras. In fact, all of her kids, me included, have to kick in monthly to keep her afloat.

To that end, I found 2 PLR courses dealing with the stock market, specifically, options trading. So I packaged them up, built the sales pages, the thank you/download pages, and set her up with her own PayPal acount. To help drive traffic, she now has her own blog, the MomProgressBlog, and her own twitter/twittollower account. (You really have to check out Twittollower, it automates Twitter followers, thereby sending traffic traffic.)

The 2 packages I am talking about are the Trading Pro System, and the Tailwind Trading System. Now, here's a little secret I kind of built into the entire package. If you buy the Tailwind Trading System, it includes the main EBook and 3 other bonus books for $79.95 total. However, if you buy the Trading Pro System, which is over 40 videos of detailed training, one of the unadvertised bonuses includes the Tailwind Trading System. I kid you not. I did this to provide extra value for the course itself. Now that's a deal.

If it's not there when you get ready to download the course, email me and I'll provide the link. We're still tweaking this entire thing, and sometimes things drop through the cracks. But it should be there, on the main download page.

So, help out my Mom, buy one of these 2 packages (not both), and we'll make sure you know what's coming up next. It supposed to be a complete Internet Marketing course by none other than Paul Counts. More on that later. In the meantime, fill out your bucket list, and dream big.

Haiti, the media, and Shelter Boxes

A long time correspondent of mine, Martin Avis in England, recently had this to say about the crisis in Haiti. I copy it here because, 1) he says it a whole bunch better than I could, and 2) I agree with everything he has to say. I do this without his permission, but I think he won't mind:

"Have you noticed how the news coverage of the terrible situation in Haiti is changing? More and more now we are seeing stories about how the American military are holding up aid deliveries, or how the constant visits by publicity-seeking VIPs is hindering work on the ground, or how the French are accusing everyone else of imperialism, or how looting is out of control, or how a lawless country is descending into anarchy.

"Now that there are no more pictures to be had of children being pulled out of rubble alive, it is as if the world's media has decided to vilify Haiti and all concerned with trying to help there - because outrage sells.

"Well I'm outraged alright.

"I'm outraged that petty commercial interests are being put in front of millions of people's lives.

"I know that sending aid to a devastated country like Haiti is going to be fraught with difficulties. I know that criminals will try to hijack some of it. I know that desperate people will resort to desperate measures to feed their families. And I know that the sheer scale of the problems means that there will be delays and holdups in getting the right aid to the right people.

"And I still say that we should be sending all the help we can.

"If we listen to the veiled suggestion by the media that our aid is being wasted or diverted and stop putting our hands in our pockets, the death toll won't be 200,000 as some estimates suggest, but maybe ten times that.

"Make no mistake ... what has happened to one of the poorest countries on Earth is an ongoing disaster of epic proportions. And only by the US and UN sending people to help, only by 'celebrities' raising awareness of the situation, only by ordinary people like you and me putting our hands in our comfortable, well-fed, safe pockets can there ever hope to be a better life for the millions of survivors.

"Better life? Make that ANY life.

"All over the world, Rotary clubs are trying to help by providing money to send Shelter Boxes. Each box contains a tent and survival equipment for ten people for up to 6 months and costs £490 (pounds - about $780 I guess).

"The entire ShelterBox organization is run by Rotarians, so admin costs are absolutely minimal. You can see more about what they do at http://www.shelterboxusa.org/.

"Already thousands of boxes have been sent - the first ones to arrive were used as emergency field hospitals - and thousands more are being prepared to go as soon as possible.......

..... if you are moved to give something to help, donating directly to http://shelterboxusa.org/ can be done on their web page.

"This is a disaster on a scale that none of us can really comprehend. Please don't allow your compassion to be eroded by
cynical media reports that are just about making headlines. "

Martin Avis
http://www.kickstartdaily.com

Note: I did change the shelterbox URL to reflect the USA website instead of the UK website since the vast majority of my readers are in the US.

That's it for today. My next post will be about something really helpful and full of insight, I hope. Till then .......

What is a Blueprint ? What is a Niche Blueprint?

A blueprint is a step by step detailed plan or program of action for completing a very specific set of tasks toward a well defined goal. A picture, if you will, of how to go about getting something specific done.

A niche, for our purposes, is a specialized market. And what we, as Internet marketers, like about niche markets is that they come with their own covey of knowledgeable, ready-to-buy, customers.

Well, if you are into Internet Marketing, believe that marketing to a niche market is the way to go, and want to learn from the experts on how to build your own online niche market, Tim Godfrey and Steve Clayton, along with the Hermansen brothers, Dave and Mike, have just released probably the most definitive guide to niche marketing yet. They have created a complete system for setting up ecommerce websites in very specific niche markets to sell physical products.

They will teach you how to find hot markets full of motivated buyers, source those products using drop shippers, drive traffic to your niche product website, create your shopping cart, and forward your orders to the drop shippers.

There is no forced continuity, OTO, up sell, or affiliate marketing. It's all there in one packaged price, nothing left out. It's a complete course.

Everybody and his brother are promoting this thing right now, so I don't know how much longer Tim and Steve are going to keep this offer alive. I'd check it out before they take it down. Too many sales overwhelms their support staff, and they believe in providing excellent support.
No kidding, this is a complete course on how to build a niche online business, nothing left out, with tools and support to match. The actual modules are detailed on their sales page, along with the requisite videos, proofs, testimonials, et all, along with the promised rate hike if you don't act now, but don't let all that stuff put you off. This is an excellent course that, if followed step by step, can build you a profitable ecommerce niche business.

Here's their sales page - check it out:
http://dickhalerecommends.info/nicheblueprint2

BTW - this is actually Niche Blueprint 2.0. The original blueprint sold out really fast and they took it off the market. 2.0 is the updated and improved version.

BTW #2 - These are the same guys that came out with a product back in September 2008 called Commission Blueprint. That was one of the best courses on making money with ClickBank by using PPC that I've come across in a long time. I bought the product, used it, and highly recommended it. So these guys know whereof they speak.

That's it for today, so make sure and build your business profitably, ethically, and make it fun.

Be SMART in 2010

OK, here we go again, looking out for the near future. One of my IM teachers just came out with some pretty good stuff for 2010, and I just thought I'd share it with you:

"With 2010 almost upon us, it is time to set out our goals for the coming year - but make sure the goals you set for yourself are really SMART ones.

"SMART goals are the only kind that you should set for yourself. SMART is an acronym for
  • Specific
  • Measurable
  • Action-oriented
  • Realistic
  • Timely.
"Briefly, that means that every goal you set yourself should be measured against that list of concepts.

"If the goal isn't specific, you won't know if you've hit it. 'Be more successful' is too vague. Instead, define what success means in the area you have chosen.

"Unless a goal has a measurable result it is just a wish. 'Make more money' isn't measurable. 'Make $100,000 by January 1st' is very measurable - on January 2nd you'll know for sure!

"Actions are far more effective than aims. For example, 'Impress the boss' is an aim, 'Get to work an hour early three times a week' is an action. Actions are things we can do.

"Realistic simply means that you set your goals a little in front of where you are now. We can all achieve one step ahead at a time, but ten steps in one go may be unrealistic. That's not to say that you won't ultimately reach the tenth step, just that the journey should be broken into realistic stages.

"Timely has two meanings. First your goal should have a specific time limit to ensure that your subconscious brain knows to get on with it. Second, your goals should be possible in the time that you have available. For example, one of your goals may be to learn the piano, but do you really have the hour a day necessary for lessons and practice? If not, then set an intermediate goal of freeing up some spare time.

"So take a hard look at your goals for 2010. Are they SMART?"

My thanks to Martin Avis for these words of wisdom.

That's it for today - nothing to sell and (unfortunately) nothing to give away. Maybe next time?

Let's Save Money on Gas

I am gonna talk about Money Makers TV in a bit, but first some tidbits you can use.

Here are 5 ways to use less gasoline:
1. Limit "short hops." Instead, go to all your "short hop" places on a single trip, saving time and extra gas.
2. Don't speed - duh. Every 5 mph over 60 wastes about 20 cents per gallon.
3. Have a soft foot. Every time you hit the gas or brake hard, you waste energy. Steady does it.
4. Maintain your car. Tires properly inflated, clean oil, clear filters, all that stuff. You knew that, right?
5. Get that extra junk out of your trunk. Extra weight means lousy mileage, so remove what you really don't need.

OK - let's talk about Money Maker TV. Showing you the nuts and bolts of IM.

I just recently got access to a newly launched phenom called Money Maker TV, an online TV station on the Internet for Internet Marketers. Whoa!

OMG - was I impressed. Sarah Staar and Dave Ingram, professional videographers, have built an online TV platform. They interviewed all types of successful Internet marketers, posted them, and continue to add more. The interface that they designed and had built themselves is truly professional. But don't let me wax on about this too much. You've got to see it for yourself.

Besides, Sarah explains it a whole lot better than I ever could.

So, carry it away, Sarah:
Money Maker TV.

To Your Success,
Dick

eBay Fortune - the Definitive Guide to Auction Riches

I just bought a book from a guy I can really identify with.
His name is Tom Barnes, and he's in my "old guy" group.
You see, he's a 45 year old eBay vet, and he's been one of the top eBay powersellers for at least the last 10 years.

Tom has written a book that is perfect for those of you wanting to earn some serious extra income using probably second or third largest search engine in the world - eBay. And you can do most of it on automatic.

One of the most important things I've learned over the years is that to be successful, you've got to emulate other successful people and the systems and strategies that made them successful. Tom is one of those people.

Using Tom's book, you can do exactly that. He really lays it out, step-by-step.

You need no technical and computer skills!
You need no start-up capital!
You need no knowledge about designing websites!

By following Tom's system, you can set up your eBay business and be up and running in about a day (my estimate, not his).

Here's a direct quote from Tom:

"Whether you're a complete eBay beginner of no experience, or an eBay veteran who thought you knew-it-all, I promise you this guide will change your eBay experience forever (and your bank account too!)"

He is going to teach you the method he has perfected over the past 10 years, the method that has made him an eBay powerseller. In fact, using Tom's own words:

"I’ve literally gone through ten years of blood, sweat, and tears on eBay to bring you this guide."

So I'm going to jump on my copy and follow Tom's lead.
And I suggest you do the same. It's a big pool out there,
and there's plenty of room for everybody.

eBay Fortune - the Definitive Roadmap to Auction Riches.

Dick

PS: If you act now, Tom is also including a couple of really cool bonuses
you have got to check out.

PPS: He also includes so much more, like his list of suppliers,
tools, and resources he himself uses on a daily basis. And some of the best insiders tricks and techniques I've never heard of.

eBay Fortune - the Definitive Roadmap to Auction Riches.

One more tip - recommendation - before I sign off. My friend Olga in the Miami Beach / Surfside area has a really cool unisex salon you ned to know about if you're ever there. It's called Hair and Body New Dimensions, so go check it out if you're anywhere around there.

We can ALL Profit from PLR

I'll be the first to admit, I'm a little rusty on PLR. It's been awhile. And why I got away from it, I'll never know. Grass is greener oncept I guess. But just to get my head back in the game, I went ahead and got Martin Avis's Ebook, "Unlock the Secrets of Private Label Ebooks." It's a very good book, written about, what, 3 years ago? But PLR is PLR, and the basics don't change. And has Martin himself has said, "I have always said that PLR is the nearest thing to magic - someone else does all the work, while you make all the money."

But as good as it is, we've found a guy who actually goes a step or 2 further. And his name is John Thornhill. He's created a system that is completely repeatable, in step-by-step form. Just watch the video on John's sales page to understand what I'm talking about (if you can understand his strange accent, by the way).

Profit from PLR is an amazingly complete, large package. There are 2 PDF files, 35 videos, and a 20 minute audio that go into complete detail about how to make money from PLR. Everything you would ever need to know.

This is good stuff, but I know how it is ..... you want to read some more copy, and cogitate over it a bit more. Private Label Resale, although not fool proof, is pretty close to it. And if you're on the fence a bit, I can tell you it is absolutely the most complete course on how to make a constant stream of money pretty much automatically - from OPW's - other people's work.

Go ahead and click on the sales page, if for nothing else but to hear John's accent:
http://f3200hr-h6jjqdebsft36k0n0i.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=BLOG

As yes, Virginia, that's a Clickbank affiliate link. Ugly, isn't it?
Let's try this one - see how much more professional it looks?
http://dickhale.com/recommends/profitfromplr

If you want to know how I do this, disguise my affiliate link, let me know. I'm thinking about doing a video on this, so I need to see how much interest there may be out there.

That's it for now - TTFN - we'll talk again.

Have you looked at CPA yet – as a viable alternative to PPC and/or Affiliate Sales?

If you want another simple but very effective way of marketing WITHOUT having to sell anything...one way to do that is through CPA networks.

This stands for Cost-Per-Action or Cost-Per-Acquisition.

And what that really means is that advertisers are willing to pay you top dollar simply for sending them traffic or generating leads.

Now, the leads could be a zip code, an e-mail address, their mailing address... anything. But, the important thing is that it doesn't need to be a sale!

All you do is get targeted visitors - cheaply - and send them to an offer. You will then get paid a commission for every lead...

http://dickhale.com/recommends/cpaarbitrage/

If you really think about it, you can be called a "traffic broker" - you buy traffic from one place for a price...
...let's say it's from Adwords at 30 cents per click...

And let's say a CPA offer pays you $3.00 per lead. Not all traffic you send will convert into a lead...

Let's say 1 out of 4 visitors fill out your CPA offer. So you pay $1.20 to make $3.00 giving you a profit of $1.80

This may seen like an insignificant amount, BUT if you find something that consistently converts like this example, you've struck gold!

Now spend 100 times the amount for traffic $120, you'll make $180 ($300-$120)...

NOW... increase advertising by ten times and you'll profit $1800!
And this is only one CPA offer!

And you can duplicate this same process with another offer... and then another...
AND THEN ANOTHER!

http://dickhale.com/recommends/cpaarbitrage/

And I didn't even mention about the offers paying $30+ dollars per lead!
CPA offers are becoming the biggest, most talked about subject right now.

Check this out now:

http://dickhale.com/recommends/cpaarbitrage/

But to do this, you have to work though what's called CPA Networks. Just like Clickbank is the middleman between publishers and affiliates.

But one of the biggest problems is that CPA Networks don't accept just anyone into their fold. You have to prove to them that you know what you're doing. And that's where Chris's program comes into play. He tells you exactly how to go about getting accepted into the "best of the best," even if you are totally new to CPA.

So do yourself a favor, and dig into CPA, CPA Networks, and CPA Arbitrage.

To our Mutual Success,
Dick

BTW - Some more points worth considering:
* Up to 300% commissions, selling other people's products
* Trade traffic for profit
* $191k from ClickBank in just 2 years and then turned his back on it!
* 7,000 - 8,000 new names & e-mails each and every day...
* Ongoing sales and commissions - on autopilot
* WITHOUT having to sell anything
* Advertisers pay you for sending them leads.
* You're really being shown how to become a traffic broker
* Mulitple campaigns, duplicate and replicate to make as much as you want/need
* CPA offers are becoming the biggest, most talked about subject right now.

We need a way to check out new Scams

I just wanted to post a short entry to tell you about a cool new site called IM Report Card.

It's a new community that's updated daily with reviews of popular Internet marketing products, services and people.

http://dickhale.com/recommends/imreportcard

Wondering if that product or service you're thinking of buying is worth it? Now you can find out before you buy.

You can also grade products you're familiar with, report scams, add comments and write your own reviews, and even
>> earn money just for participating <<

If you're like most people you've probably already bought or have experience with dozens of the products, services and people already reviewed on the site. If you grade and comment on them you could easily earn some cash right now.

http://dickhale.com/recommends/imreportcard

Check it out and see what you think ...
If we all just make a little effort we can make it a lot harder for the promoters of crappy products to do business online, and shine the spotlight on those that deserve it.

I really like this site. Check it out to see if it fits with your IM goals.

TTFN - we'll talk again.

Can you name the group in this dance video from the late 50's?

If you think you know, post a blog comment with your answer/WAG.

In the meantime, it's Fall SOS here @the beach, so there's a lot of dancing already going on, just not as frenetic. But a lot of the steps you see in this video were actually a precursor to today's Shag. If you listen to the words, you'll hear him say something about "shag on down to the ???."

I've got an interesting post on my other blog about 25 things about to become extinct in America. You need to take a look see.

That's if for now - so post your guess in the comments below, and let us know how you're doing.

Advise as I grow Old

Because we all have both ups and downs as we progress through life, and because my sister-in-law is struggling with cancer treatments, my Mom is struggling with some pretty severe arthritis and back pain, and we're all struggling with the economic downturn, I started thinking about things and life in general, overall.

And I found an article that was written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio. I am repeating it here because it not only gave me pause, but also because it gave me something to really think about, and I wanted to pass it along, and maybe preserve it. My thanks to my friend Ethel for passing this along.

Regina writes ..............................

"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone...

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first pay check.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye, but don't worry; God never blinks.

16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.

19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood, but the second one is up to you and no one else.

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie; don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now; don't wait for old age to wear purple.

24. The most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?'

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive everyone and everything.

29. What other people think of you is none of your business.

30. Time heals almost everything; give it time.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Don't take yourself so seriously; no one else does.

33. Believe in miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.

35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood.

38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

42. The best is yet to come.

This Gives New Meaning to "The Money is in Your List"

It's about quiting time, and I'm sitting here writing this for you all.
Oooh, that G&T is sounding good right about now.

But before I get to my worldly pleasures, I just had to tell you all
about this new program that's recently launched. It's called Mammoth List Extreme.

Sometimes, something comes along that I think is absolutely outta site.
It combines opp chains with list building with money making opportunity.

How much do you spend every month advertising
your business opportunity? $50? $100? $200 or
more?

What if I could show you a simple, yet powerful
system that builds your list so big, so fast,
that you will never ever have to pay someone
else for advertising again?

If you had 100,000 known buyers and income
seekers on your personal list of subscribers,
why would you ever need or want to pay someone
to advertise to their list? You wouldn't would
you? In fact, you could then charge other people
to advertise to YOUR list.

You can't possibly be more skeptical than I was
when I heard about this. But I'm sold now and I
just want to share this with as many other
fellow netrepreneurs as I can.

Not only will you be able to rapidly build a
huge list but each person joining your list is
going to PAY YOU just to be on your list.

Did you get that?

This is not just a super list builder. It's an
automated cash machine. Like your own ATM
machine that keeps on spitting out money in
front of you.

This killer system only costs a One-Time $35.
Don't just sit there. Go get started right this
minute!

Wishing You Success,

Did you get Filsaime's BFM?

Did you get a copy of Mike Filsaime's Butterfly Marketing?

Have you been digging into your copy of the Butterfly Marketing home study course and
software?

When your box arrived, you should have seen the BFM manuscript, the 7 Figure Secrets book,and the 10CD set.

I love those audios by the way! I listen to them and get new ideas every time.

Anyway, I wanted to make another recommendation to you.

As you may have heard me say before, the BFM software is not the easiest thing to get up and running.

There are just so many options and features it can be difficult to get your mind around all of the possibilities.

There are excellent training videos included in the members community, but I know of some one else who is teaching it differently.

Bob The Teacher has created over 30 BFM sites, and he's always created them as simply as possible (no advanced customization or plugins, etc.)

He's currently teaching a live virtual workshop on how to get your first BFM site up and running - building your list and making sales.

If you're the kind of person that likes to learn in an interactive environment, where you can get your questions answered by someone else who has "been there, done that", then I highly recommend you learn from Bob.

There's no doubt in my mind that you can learn BFM on your own - if you have a lot of time and patience.

But if you want to learn it faster, this is definitely the way to go:

http://dickhale.com/recommends/discoverBFM

You can learn from the first half of the course instantly - and then pick up the second half in subsequent editions. In the meantime, there's an active members community of everyone in the course - included as part of the training!

http://dickhale.com/recommends/discoverBFM

Overall, Bob's created over 30 sites with the software, and he's streamlined the installation process to under 30 minutes.

And he's giving away step-by-step videos to show you exactly how he does it so you can do it to.

http://dickhale.com/recommends/discoverBFM

You'll also get to listen in to a fantastic interview Bob did with Mike - about the persuasion principles that are at work in most Butterfly sites.

BTW: MySQL, FTP, and all that stuff may seem like a foreign language to you now. But Bob has a great way of making it all super simple.

I've decided to take the course with Bob The Teacher on how to convert an existing product or resell rights package over to a BFM site.

And since Bob has launched over 30 BFM sites already, I can tell you that learning from his experience is really shortening my learning curve!

http://dickhale.com/recommends/discoverBFM

In fact, in just the first couple of sessions, I've already installed my script, integrated my autoresponder system, set up my payment processor (so I can take credit card payments online), and put the first pieces of my affiliate program together.

I'm so excited about how fast I'm putting these pieces together I had to tell you about it, too.

http://dickhale.com/recommends/discoverBFM

When you get the site, you'll be offered a free intro course first - you definitely want to grab that so you can tell how simple Bob makes things. Then make sure you register for the course.

I'm inside it already, and I'm hoping to see you in the members area soon, too!

Let's go kick some BFM butt, and take names.

Become a Blogger the Right Way

No! We're not talking about Tom Wolfe here. Even though he did do it "The Right Way," what I'm talking about here is learning how to blog, the right way.

And there are 2 guys out there who know exactly how to help you do just that. Yaro Starak and Gideon Shalwick. They just re-opened their "Ultimate Step-by-Step Video Guide to Becoming a Successful Blogger, without the Complicated Geek-Talk."

Unfortunately, I haven't been paying attention, and I've just discovered they are closing the doors (again) this Friday, July 3rd at Midnight, EST. And today's Thursday, July 2nd as I write this. So, we don't have much time. Why we? Because I plan on joining you in this course. I was there for the first go-around, and it was (and is) excellent. This is the premium version, but I'll let them explain the whole thing.

Click here to learn more about this offer from Gideon and Yaro

If you've ever wanted to start your own blog, but had no idea how to go about it, this is the course for you. If you know how to set up and start a blog, but have no idea how to make any money from it, this is the course for you. If you've already got a blog and have monetized it, but have no idea how to promote it, then this is the course for you. Our boys cover the entire gamut from A to Z.

But before you jump in with both feet, check out their creds by taking their FREE video course first. That way you'll get a feel for how best they can help you, and it's a great intro to the main course. Click here to take the FREE Video Blogging Course.

And one more freebie I almost forgot to mention. They've published a FREE Roadmap course that goes hand-in-hand with the free video course. Click here to get their "Roadmap to Become a Blogger" Report. In fact, I'd do this first just to see what all the hoopla's all about. You will not be disappointed.

OK - another bright spot on the horizon, and it is also a freebie. That Shoe Money Guy has just released a free 12 week email course specifically for Internet newbies, and I just wanted to tell you about it. This is just an FYI - so go check it out for yourself. It's worth a look see if you're still trying to figure out how to get started.
Click here to look at Jeremy Schoemaker's (his real name) 12 week Internet Marketing Course.

That's it for this edition. Take care, and I'll post again whenever I've got something to share.

New Slots are becoming available 6/15

That's right! Jim Daniels is reopening his coaching program for a very limited time June 15th.

Yo! You All! You have got to check this out.

When I signed up for the new "Jim Daniels Coaching" Membership Tutorial site (now that's a mouthful), I was only really doing it to check out how Jim had put it together.

The Jim Daniels Coaching Program

I mean, I already "know" how to generate income off the Internet, right?

And I DID already know a lot of the stuff in the videos he's got posted so far. Internet Marketing fundamentals haven't changed since early 2001. But then I dared myself to really look at his tutorials and money making ideas, and SHAME ON ME!

I KNOW what I'm supposed to be doing, but marketing distractions, putting out fires, plain old procrastination, you know the drill...

But now, thanks to Jim's membership site, I have a fully blown tutorial and checklist that I can use to help me generate even more income.

The Jim Daniels Coaching Program

Plus, I can even use it the next time I start a new project, so I'm not ever ashamed again when I get called out for my Internet Marketing "expertise."

Check it out here - there are 198 videos in the Gold Members area alone to tell you the whole scoop.

The Jim Daniels Coaching Program

Unfortunately, there's a catch. Jim had already closed the doors on his first launch. But they reopen on Monday 6/15/2009, and you can get on the launch list here:

The Jim Daniels Coaching Program

This is very much worth your time.
Dick

P.S. Even if you think know Internet Marketing and all the nuts and bolts thereof, I dare you to check this out, and challenge you! If you think you already know it all (even though you think you know better) - you should call Jim and ask if you can mentor him. :)

Well, I've posted another article on my ever expanding Internet Retirement site, and I wanted to let you all know about it. It's a short read, and you can get to it by clicking HERE.


Briefly, it's all about quality coaching, and how you can go about getting it for yourself.


On another front, Frank Kern's at it again with a new video. Seems as if he tried to sneak into John Reese's house (that's the intro silly stuff he's know for), but the real meaty, serious stuff is really worth watching. Watch the Kern Video.

I am still in the process of revamping my Internet Retirement System site, but it's taking awhile, so hang in there. I really want to focus on recurring passive income, income that keeps on coming in month after month, automatically. As a preview, I want to concentrate on affiliate programs that highlight memberships that offer income streams a recurring basis. It's gonna be cool, so be on the lookout.

If you want advance notification, just sign up for my opt-in list on the home page.

Dave Lakhani, Mark Ling, and a few others are some up and coming IM'ers I am following closely right now. Stay Tuned!

You're already making these SEO mistakes - I did.

Yo! You All! You have got to check this out.

When I signed up for StomperNet's new free "7 Deadly SEO Mistakes" course, I was only really doing it to check out how StomperNet had put it together.

https://stompernet.infusionsoft.com/go/S2SP/dickhale

I mean, I already "know" SEO, right?

And I DID already know a lot of the stuff in the reports and videos they've sent so far. SEO fundamentals haven't changed since the 90's. But then I dared myself to check my sites for these mistakes anyway, and SHAME ON ME!

I KNOW what I'm supposed to be doing, but marketing distractions, putting out fires, plain old procrastination, you know the drill...

But now, thanks to StomperNet's course, I have a handy-dandy checklist that I can use to fix each site right up.

https://stompernet.infusionsoft.com/go/S2SP/dickhale

Plus, I can even use it the next time I start a new site, so I'm not ever ashamed again when I get called out for my SEO.

Check it out here - there's a free video just to tell you the whole scoop, and then you can sign up and start getting the course immediately after.

https://stompernet.infusionsoft.com/go/S2SP/dickhale

Very much worth your time.
Dick

P.S. Even if you know SEO, I dare you to check this out, and challenge you! If you aren't making ONE of these mistakes (even though you think you know better) - you should call StomperNet and ask if there's a faculty opening. :)

Spring SOS Safari Parade

It was a balm like springy day, just right for a parade:
