Are You Ready For The 30 Day Challenge?

2008-08-16T09:52:00.006+10:00

Well here we are in the middle of August already and I haven't posted to the blog in ages.

It's been a frantic time for expanding our Internet marketing knowledge as we move away from the web development/coaching arena and into the product creation field. It's one thing to teach clients how to do this but quite another to actually do it yourself.

We've recently signed up for Ed Dale's 30-Day Challenge, which is a full-on training program from one of Australia's most successful Internet marketers. Ed and his partner Frank Kern created the Underachiever Method a few years ago, a system which has been responsible for a number of online success stories. The 30-Day Challenge promises to do the same. And the best things about it - it's FREE!

To a take a look and see if it's for you, go to The 30-Day Challenge.

They're on Day 15 today so click on the 'Previous Entries' link to get to the beginning. Some of the videos may be a bit tedious to watch but what you'll learn about Internet marketing will be worth it.

Till next time,

Joint Venture Seekers

2008-06-04T12:05:00.007+10:00

A review of Liz Tomey's Joint Venture Seeker...

I'm sure you don't have to be convinced of the power of Joint Ventures. I mean, you see the huge numbers all the time, right?

You know - "A million dollars in 8 minutes!!"

Well, thankfully there's a whole lot more to JVs than that.

There's actually room for "the little guy"... especially those that want to move up the ranks.

Liz Tomey is one heck of an example.

Her very first JV (for the first product she ever created) brought in $37,000 in just two weeks... ok, so it's not a million bucks, but it's not something to shake a stick at, either.

She describes that launch as "life changing," as it would be for just about anyone. Both she and her husband were able to stay at home with their 5 kids... and it literally set the foundation for their whole business.

Quite a story, yes?

That's why I wanted to check out Liz's product Joint Venture Seeker, to see if it sheds any light on JVs.

What I found was something rare... a series of video tutorials (10 of them) that take you through the entire process of planning, getting, and carrying out JVs... step by step.

Liz speaks from experience, and it shows. She's worked with most of the top people in the industry - and even got 8 of them to share their top secrets in a series of hard-hitting interviews.

Liz even includes the transcripts free of charge... along with an incredible batch of bonuses that I actually loved reading.

I think a lot of people try to get that "thud factor" by throwing together a ton of information on a topic... without really considering how people are going to use it.

That's not the case here.

Liz has put together detailed workbooks that go along with the course, so you never feel like you're lost. I actually picked up two steps that I had left out of my JV process that will dramatically improve my results.

So there you have it - a video JV course from a real master, that anyone can use.

Last I heard Liz was offering a big discount for the first couple of weeks... so you better take a look now.

Here's the link:

Joint Venture Seeker.

To your success,

Marguerite Bonneville

PS- I especially like Liz's advice for people who have no list... she did her first JV before she had a list, so she knows what she's talking about! Check it out here:

Health And Beauty In 2008?

2008-06-02T11:56:00.006+10:00

Hard to believe it's over five months since I last posted to the blog.

A lot has happened since then. Our big new venture for 2008 is a health and beauty project that will take most of the year to complete. This has been taking up most of our time but should be a valuable resource once it's done.

So my question to you is, are you involved in the health or beauty industries? If so, we'd love to hear from you. We're looking for the best products and services in those industries that we can recommend to our visitors. We're open to joint venture suggestions and affiliate programs.

To contact us, just post a comment or visit our contact us page.

We'll post more marketing information on the blog in the coming weeks.

If you run an online business, this is your opportunity to get loads of free marketing information and software to help your business grow in 2008.

If you've participated in these programs in the past, you'll know that part of the deal for receiving these free gifts is to submit your first name and email address.

* 12 Days of Christmas – Mark Hendricks

* 117 Work at Home Gifts – Henry Gold

Make Your PC Faster

2007-09-08T11:06:00.000+10:00

I've been having computer hassles lately since I've been working with a number of audio and video programs.

It seems that every few years my latest 'top of the line' super speedy computer becomes a lumbering dinosaur as I saddle it with more and more programs. So out comes the credit card to purchase an upgrade or a completely new system.

I was about to spend yet another tidy sum when I came across a $9 instruction manual that claimed to show me how to make my current computer run faster.

And it works!

So if you're ready to take a hammer to your computer, save yourself the aggravation - not to mention the replacement costs - and take a look at Kris Mainieri's PC Secret Formula report.

The 90-Day Apprentice Program

2007-09-02T09:44:00.000+10:00

I've just come across Dan Blackburn's 90-Day Apprentice Program and it looks like a winner.

The 90-Day Apprentice Program is designed to help anyone who wants to make money online and is willing to put in a little time to make it happen. Over 90 days, Dan assigns a series of tasks that allow his 'apprentices' to learn Internet marketing with a hands-on approach.

The best thing about this program is that it's NOT another cookie-cutter online business. You don't get a beautifully designed web site - the same one every other member gets. Instead, Dan teaches you exactly how to create your own online business, whatever that might be. You can develop a travel site, a crafts site, a dog training site - the choice is up to you. But the bottom line is that promoting and marketing an online business is based on the same proven principles, no matter what the product or service. Your target markets may differ but you go about finding them in the same way.

So what qualifies Dan Blackburn to help you build your business?

Like many of us, Dan learned how to develop a successful online business through trial and error. A self-admitted 'information junkie', Dan spent his first few years online spending and spending - and never earning. He was working a full-time day job to support his online habit - collecting information. But eventually he realized that knowledge is NOT power in itself - it's only powerful when it's applied. Once Dan started taking action with his knowledge, he was able to quit his day job and concentrate on his online ventures.

But why the 90-Day Apprentice Program?

As Dan learned the hard way, people don't instinctively take action on what they've learned. He didn't, most of his online friends didn't - and they were all highly motivated to make money. After working with numerous people on numerous projects, Dan realized that people need more guidance than is usually offered. They need someone to hold their hand and tell them exactly what needs to be done and when to do it. The 90-Day Apprentice Program uses step-by-step learning to ensure the success of the apprentices.

If you're anxious to start your own business, make money online, and be free of the 9-to-5 grind, then check out the 90-Day Apprentice Program. You can apply what you learn to almost any business you want to start online. You'll have personal guidance and direction - not just a book of steps. And, if it's not for you, Dan offers a money-back guarantee. Take your enthusiasm and your willingness to commit and start creating a business that works.

The program starts on September 8, 2007, so if you want to learn more about it, rush over to The 90-Day Apprentice Program.

Hello Again!

2007-09-02T08:16:00.000+10:00

It's been about 5 weeks since I posted to the blog and, if you live in the northern hemisphere, you may imagine that I was just enjoying our summer break.

But the truth is we've had houseguests for two weeks and unfortunately they brought the flu virus with them. Everyone in our house caught it and we're still in the recovery phase. We're just coming out of Winter in Australia and this particular strain of flu has affected a large number of people, resulting in death in a number of cases. But Spring arrived yesterday so we're getting ready to shed the extra blankets, put the heaters in storage and drop a few pounds so we can hit the beaches this summer.

Then I WILL be taking a couple of months off!

$600 A Day With Adsense?

2007-07-21T12:43:00.000+10:00

If you've been struggling to make more than a few dollars a month from AdSense you know how difficult it can be.

British marketer Michael Cheney created quite a buzz when he released his groundbreaking product AdSense Videos. We've been testing just a couple of Michael's techniques on two of our sites and have seen our Adsense income double in a few short months. You can bet we'll be adding more in the coming weeks.

Michael earns an impressive $19,156 per month just using AdSense on a handful of web sites. That's over $600 a day. Not bad for passive income.

You can watch the videos that show you exactly how he does it by visiting Michael's site right now at Adsense Videos.

Even if you decide not to get full access to the videos, visit the site to sign up for the AdSense Mini-Course he's giving away.

Sign Up With Big Daddy

2007-06-02T13:39:00.000+10:00

Around this time last year I heard about a new search engine called Big Daddy. They presented themselves as an alternative to Google and Yahoo, but with a twist. Big Daddy actually allows you to earn APs or Advantage Points every time you search on your own personalized portal. You can then spend these APs on ads that are similar to Google Adwords. In other words, you're paying for Pay-Per-Click ads in virtual dollars, not real ones.

It's an interesting system. If you get your friends to do searches through your personalized portal, you get APs every time they click as well. So you can build up your points quite quickly and then spend them on ads.

Big Daddy is free to join and they offer some paid products as well. If you do Pay-Per-Click campaigns, it's worth taking a look to see if there's an advantage to your joining. Take some time to read through the info before making up your mind.

Big Daddy has been growing in leaps and bounds since they launched last year and have an Alexa ranking of around 1,000 at last count. To check them out, go to http://www.bigdaddypays.com/margob88

Outsourcing Tips

2007-05-19T18:15:00.000+10:00

It's been a very busy month at JSL due to our search for a number of new freelance staff members. That's the trouble with training your staff too well - they eventually leave to devote themselves to their own increasingly successful Internet projects.

After a certain amount of testing, we decided to post the majority of our projects on RentACoder. Their system is very easy to use and we like being able to access essential information on the candidates up front. We haven't tried all of the outsourcing services at this point because we've been pleased with our results on RentACoder and also Guru.com.

So if you need some help with one of your projects, take a look at RentACoder first. You may need to try three or four freelancers until you find one that's a perfect fit, or you may be lucky immediately, as we were on one of our projects. Isn't it about time you took some of the weight off your shoulders?

Need more traffic to your site? What if you could learn about how to build a great list from two of the Internet's top list building experts for pennies on the dollar?

Here's how you can.

Gary Ambrose and Keith Wellman have just released the entire recording of a private workshop they held recently called "Same List, More Profit"... and you're going to have a chance to see it all on DVD.

The price goes up with each and every sale, so be sure to check it out ASAP. I'm not sure how much it's selling at now, but whatever it is, I'm sure it's still a great bargain.

Here's your chance to learn the same simple, yet very effective tactics these marketers use to make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year with their lists. And you get them all for peanuts.

Just in case you missed it, this isn't an ebook or an audio file. They're shipping a real DVD to straight to your door.

The quicker you take action, the lower the price. And once you’re signed up, you automatically gain access to the 100% commissions affiliate program.

So jump on board now to lock in the lowest price possible at Nickel Maniax DVD.

Are Your Headlines The Kiss of Death?

2007-04-22T10:46:00.000+10:00

I've just been re-reading Sean D'Souza's excellent articles on the psychology behind writing killer headlines and sales copy.

In case you don't know, Sean is the copywriting wizard from New Zealand who gets rave reviews from marketing masters like Jay Conrad Levinson and David Garfinkel. Sean is so perceptive when it comes to ferreting out the real reasons why people respond to an ad and buy a product - or run like rabbits after reading a couple of words - that many people think he's a trained psychologist. No he's not - he's simply a brilliant observer of human nature whose insights you don't want to miss.

Due to his hectic schedule, Sean's site hasn't been updated in a while, but luckily you can still get access to a wealth of free articles. Just go to Psychotactics.com.
