CASE STUDY: “Back-2-Back” Launch Methodology

Hosting two Tele-Clinics (Back-2-Back) can lead to long-term profits…

Story Behind Tele-Clinic #1: On July 7th, 2008 I purchased a URL www.NewAmazingSoftware.com which is a “forwarding” URL to track the opt-in conversion of a “squeeze” page for a free Teleseminar.

I’ll refer to it in this CASE STUDY as Tele-Clinic #1 because it’s the first of two Tele-Clinics on Thursday evening, July 17th.

Tele-Clinic #1 is scheduled at 5pm Pacific (8pm Eastern) and it even has an online “step-by-step” tutorial you can experience now by visiting: www.SmartStartSitePreview.com

Story Behind Tele-Clinic #2: On April 23rd, 2008, I took out my handy FlipVideo player and created a 15-minute impromptu video of the actual “Limo Consultation” Wayne Van Dyck paid me for. (It’s the video on this post!)

This is a time-proven marketing strategy I’m utilizing more and more for product launches and I call it (more…)

You Are “The Message”

questionsign_110.jpg“The medium is the message” is a phrase coined by Marshall McLuhan meaning that the form of a medium imbeds itself in the message, creating a symbiotic relationship by which the medium influences how the message is perceived.

The phrase was first introduced in his most widely known book, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man, published in 1964, which was also the year I was born 🙂

McLuhan proposed that media itself, not the content carried, should be the focus of the communication.

Well, I don’t agree.  I think the Messenger is the Message.  You, as the content provider, are the Message. Check out what I mean here on this 5-minute video: www.HubAndSpokeVideo.com

You don’t have to agree with me, but I do want you to (more…)

“Improver” or “Inventor” in Your Business?

“Never invent, always improve.”Target

This four-word sentence is indelibly etched in my mind right now. I also have that quote framed and hanging on the wall of my home office.

The marketing philosophy of choosing improvement over invention has generated millions of dollars for my info publishing business and my students’ businesses.

Although the idea of becoming an “Improver” is not as sexy as being known as an “Inventor,” it is improvement, not invention, that has generated billions for some of the most renowned Thought Leaders in history. Ironically, many of these folks have been inaccurately dubbed as “Inventors.”

Here’s one example: Nikola Tesla invented the modern alternating current electric power (AC) systems. Thomas Edison improved it. Telsa died broke. Edison died a millionaire.

Here’s another: Charles Haanel is the true (more…)

Recession-Proofing with Article Marketing

cliffs_110.jpgOne of my favorite shows as a kid was Get Smart. So I was excited to hear about the movie version that opened this summer. The new Get Smart movie got me to thinking about how to get smart with our article marketing efforts.
