The Real Key To Escalating Your Business Success
Wow! It’s been a whirlwind week for me!
I’m currently at Dave Lakhani’s “Renegade Persuasion 2008″ event with great people like:
* Morgan Westerman
* Fred Gleeck
* Ben Mack
* Joel Bauer
* My affiliate manager, Jeffrey Levesque
* Ray and Maria NGO
* and many, many more
We’ll be in the seminar tomorrow, too. On Sunday, almost a dozen people will join Morgan Westerman and I for our “Spend the day with Morgan and Gina event”.
Morgan will be here at least until Tuesday so we can spend some time working on our future project on Monday.
And, I have a few other meetings planned for this week, too, including one with the Golden Nuggets that should result in a few great surprises for you in the coming weeks.
I’ll keep you posted as things progress!
My busy week actually started a few days ago, on Wednesday, when my affiliate manager and I spent the day at Fred Gleeck’s participating in the creation of Fred’s newest products, “Marketing and Promoting our Seminar Workshop” which you’ll find at:
http://www.seminarexpert.com/marketingseminars.html
Sitting in on product creation lesson like this is not only educational, but can also be life changing if you make the right connections.
The same is true with attending live events of any sort.
In fact, I had never before met such prior to Wednesday. But, after learning more about him and finding out that he is “TheProductGuru.com”, I knew he’d enjoy the event that I’m attending right now so I asked him to join us this weekend.
Well of course, he did!
A few minutes ago, I was sitting in the restaurant with Fred and Morgan (who obviously have known each other for quite some time based on their jovial conversation).
And Fred turned to me and asked if this week I would be willing to record a new product that is all about using joint ventures profitably in your Info product business.
Well, since Fred has a huge subscriber list of more than 150,000 people, what do you think my response to him was?
By this time next week, that product will be ready to go! I’ll drop you an e-mail the minute you can download it.
Now, one of the other results of attending this event is that Fred has even invited me as a guest speaker at an event he’s hosting in New York with Bob Bly in October.
Of course, I accepted immediately.
Why am I telling you all this?
Am I just trying to brag?
Or is there really a point to my ramblings?
Well, there really is a point here. Just sit down for a minute while I get to it…
My point is that if you ever hope to get your business to the level of success you dream about, you MUST be going to events so that you can meet other like-minded individuals who have similar goals to yours.
It’s never too early or too late in your business to get started either. As long as we have an idea of which markets you want to be in, attending events can help you achieve even more.
Let me give you an example…
Let’s say you’re just getting started in your business, but you know that you want to do something to help single moms. You happen to hear of a great marketing seminar being held in Chicago in mid-July and you register to attend.
How can attending this event most benefit you?
1. Create a product.
At the seminar, find experts who have products that are geared towards showing people how to make money from home generally. Ask these experts if you can interview them for a new product of your own.
After the interview, add to the audio materials that make the topic apply to single moms only. These can include checklists, worksheets, and other audio of your own, et cetera. Just think a little outside the box!
The sky is the limit!
Now you have a new product of your own.
2. Build a list.
At the seminar you can also locate experts who have products for your market. Ask them to donate a gift.
Set up the site that will be promoted by all gift givers, that have visitors opt in to download each gift. This should be a free membership site that gives people access to everything just for registering.
With this idea, you could build a list of tens of thousands in as little as one to four weeks.
3. Drive traffic to your website.
I have loads of ideas for this one!
You can invite a number of experts to each offer their articles on your blog. On their blogs, they would put something that you provide them with (like a small graphic seal that says “guest offer of www.yourdomain.com“). Your job will be to do things like social bookmarking for each author that makes a post on the blogs.
This will help to drive considerably more traffic than you could drive on your own.
With all the additional traffic you’ll be getting from the guest author’s blog, as well as from the credibility boost you’ll have after landing some big names in your industry, your traffic is sure to sky rocket with little effort.
_______… I could go on and on with examples of how you can profit just from the experience of going to a single live event (and these don’t even include all the ways you can make money using what you learned at the events either).
Will some seminar bring better results than others for your business?
Absolutely!
The key to success from attending live events is picking an event because of the quality of the people who attend the event. This is one of the primary ways I choose which events I’ll be attending.
In the next few months, I have chosen the following line-up as events that I absolutely must attend because the networking is sure to be great:
1. July 18-20, 2008 - Chicago, Illinois.
Ross Goldberg’s “The Master’s Internet Marketing Seminar”, where I’ll be a speaker.
2. September 15-17, 2008 - Baltimore, MD.
Mike Filsaime and Paulie Sabol’s “The Internet Marketing Main Event”.
http://www.theinternetmarketingmainevent.com.
3. October 3-5, 2008 - Atlanta, GA.
Armand Morin’s “Big Seminar”
4. October 25-26, 2008 - New York, NY.
Fred Gleeck and Bob Bly’s “Info Product Seminar” where I’ll be a guest speaker.
5. December 6 and 7, 2008 - Vermont
Michael Angier’s“Success Summit”, where I’m a panelist.
This list doesn’t even include the two or three events that I’ll be hosting myself before the end of the year!
Obviously, with this kind of a line-up, I have to really believe in the value of attending events.
So how many events should you attend to make real progress with your business?
As many as you can!
Each year, I attended minimum of eight to ten live events and host an additional one to two. And, if I could make it to even more events, I most certainly would.
Every time I attend a seminar, I add an extra five to six figures to the bottom line that month in my business.
Now that’s not chump change!
What do you need to do in order to make this kind of cash for yourself from live events?
The best thing you can do to make this a reality in your business is…
Step 1: Pick any of the seminars above, reserve your seat, and make it a point to be there.
Step 2: Register in my forum and let me know that you’ll be attending so that we can make plans to meet while we’re there.

Step 3: Take the second 30-Day IM Challenge.
On Sunday, June 29, 2008, I’ll be kicking off the second 30-Day IM Challenge. I had originally planned on launching this yesterday. But, then I realized that it would leave you on your own for the first five days of the Challenge.
Well, I didn’t want to do that to you! Quite to the contrary, I want to be there to help you as much as possible!
So, I delayed the launch a couple of more days in order to make that possible.
What can you expect to achieve during the 30-Day IM Challenge?
*Using more than 16 lessons and four teleconferences, you can expect to…
*Build the blue print for your business that will allow you to reach the greatest number of people possible, in the shortest amount of time with your message.
*Know who your audience is, what their problems are, and what they’re buying and be able to use this information to sell even more.
*Know what products you’ll be selling and how each one fits into your overall strategy and system.
*Setup a traffic generation system for your business that will help you to focus first on building a relationship with your visitors and second getting them on to your list so that you can sell more of everything you have to offer.
*Set up your blog and use it to drive thousands of hot, laser/targeted prospects every single week.
*Build a profit funnel that will ensure that you make the greatest amount from every single customer, over the lifetime of the relationship.
*And much, MUCH more!
Unlike most courses out there, participation in the second 30-Day IM Challenge isn’t going to cost you one red cent!
You will be able to join 100% F.R.E.E.!
No, there isn’t a $1,000 up-sell either. The program is designed completely to simply help you as much as possible in building your business.
Rather than make you pay for access to these materials, I ask of you only one thing… to me it’s more valuable then anything that you could ever pay me!
What do I want from you in return for providing you with all of this valuable information?
I want your commitment to dedicating 30 solid days to drastically improving your business.
I want your promise that you won’t merely access material and add it to you ever-growing digital waste file.
In other words, I want your commitment to taking action every single day for 30 days!
In return, here’s my commitment to you…
1. I will be there to help you build your business throughout the 30 days.
You’ll have access to me, my current students, and graduate students as well as my entire team through our forum.
3. I’ll make things as easy as pie to understand whenever possible throughout the 30-day IM Challenge.
4. I will add even more new material to help expand the knowledge base.
This also kicks off on Sunday, June 29, 2008.
I will e-mail you as soon as everything is ready for you to join!
But first, let me ask you a question.
How much do you value your time?
My time is extremely valuable, and I’m sure that your is too. So, When I find something that I know that is an asset for you and can save you in any aspect of your business, I have to let you know about it.
Just take a look at what one of my apprentices, Shelby Carr (she is also my personal assistant), has put together to not only save you money, but time, as well.
This little treasure is called Virtual Article Publisher, a really neat little software program, you can implement in submitting your viral articles to ALL the top websites with a simple click of your mouse and it actually comes with private label rights for $5.
http://theprofitshack.com/VAP/?e=abundance
Let’s say that you have written an article and you need to get it submitted to 50 websites. Each website would take you 5 minutes to submit your article. Now that doesn’t sound like much time, but multiply that by 50.
250 minutes divided by 60 minutes = 4.17 hours
Now, lets say that you value your time at $25 per hour. $25 X 4.17 hours = $104.25 That is $104.25 you are losing every time you have to submit an article.
Now you can actually select as many of the top article accepting websites as you want and submit your article instantly to them all at once by clicking a simple button!
And wouldn’t you want to have something that would save you time AND money everytime you had to submit an article?
Here’s how the Viral Article Publisher works for you:
1. You enter the user information you want included in your resource box
2. You then add or edit an article
3. You select which websites you want to submit your article to from a list containing all of the top article sites
4. You click submit.
It’s as easy as 1-2-3-4!
Go ahead and sign up to get the Virtual Article Publisher today! Remember, with 100% Instant commissions, you get
paid for each sale instantly to your Paypal account.
Even if you’re not interested in selling the product you can still benefit greatly.
Here’s the link one more time:

If you don’t see the value in this incredible product, then don’t get it. BUT if you are anything like me, there are not enough hours in the day to accomplish all that I need to do in my business. And anything that I can do to SAVE time, to me, is worth
it’s weight in gold.
