One Man’s Junk?

Is another man’s treasure…or at least that is how the saying goes, I think.

I am referring to giveaway events…..some them are ok and some of them are notI

It all depends on what kind of product you are looking for…if you are new to internet marketing, these events could be seen as a gold mine of products that you have never seen before and you shout ‘scooooooorrrrre’ (or at least your inside voice does :) ) because you get to pick these up for free!

If you are a seasoned marketer, you consider the giveaways junk….same old hashed over products that you’ve seen time and time again.

How about a giveaway where the people who put it on, hand pick the contributors and the products MUST be of value? Here’s where the treasure comes in:

Doug Champigny and Xavier Nelson are sponsoring the FREE PLR Giveaway where they have hand picked the contributors including Willie Crawford, Jeffrey Levesque, Joel Osborne, Mike Paetzold and Michelle Brouse just to name a few of them.

But here’s the deal, and I apologize for this….they are closing the doors tomorrow, Sunday, October 19, so get your hind end over there now and pick up a product or two….hey, that’s where I picked up the theme for this blog, so it can’t be all that bad……

Be sure to be on the lookout for my newsletter sign up form which will be live sometime next week. You WON’T want to miss it! My plans are to not only share my some of my K.A.R. system here in the blog, but to give more ‘inside’ information for readers of my newsletter……

Til next time,

Here’s to YOUR success…

How Can I Help YOU?

Internet Marketing doesn’t have to be hard, but there are wayyyy too many people that make it that way.

Why? Probably because there are soooo many different ways to make this business work.

Have you decided which direction you want to go? That is the biggest obstacle that most people have a hard time overcoming.

Affiliate marketing? Creating your own info product? Pay Per Click Advertising? Joint Venturing? Social Networking?

The list is endless, but the ONE biggest thing that every guru out there has?

A LIST.

Not just A list, but a responsive list of people who are willing to purchase from you.

In my opinion, if you don’t have a list, spinning your wheels trying everything else can lead you to the poor house relatively quickly. I will expand on list building in another post.

Now, not to change the subject, but if you look at the header of my site, you will see my ‘motto’ if you will….it’s what I call the K.A.R. system and it’s what I truly believe will lead you to be prosperous as long as you don’t get distracted by everything else.

What is K.A.R?

KNOWLEDGE–APPLICATION–RESULTS

It’s the ‘system’ that I am going to using through this vehicle to teach others how to start creating an income doing this wacky thing called Inernet Marketing.

Knowledge–You must acquire some sort of knowledge of what you are going to be doing to create that income before you start doing it. Reading. Sitting in on teleseminars. Listening to mp3′s on your Ipod. However you acquire that knowledge (hopefully through my site) of what you are going to be doing.

Then……..

Application–How do you apply that knowledge that you have acquired. What do you do? Where do you do it? THAT is probably the area that most people, me included, struggle.

You have questions–how do I do it? Where do I do that? How often do I do that?

Results–What does the application of the knowledge that you have acquired bring about? Does it bring in more subscribers to your list? Does it bring in more affiliate sales? Sales of your own info product? Whatever it brings, you need to track it and change it if necessary to bring about the desired results. Or if it gets the results that you are looking for, tweak what you have done and do it again to make the results improve.

So, back to my post title: How Can I Help YOU?

What do you want to learn about? What would you like me to write more (or less) about?

Your successes are tied to me….if I can’t be successful, how am I supposed to show you how to be successful?

You are here to track my results and I am going to be sharing with you my acquired knowledge, how I apply it, and what my results are, so that YOU can duplicate it! How’s that?

My personal assignment to myself is to post here at least 3-4 times a week and share with you what I know, apply and what that brings about. What is your assignment to YOURSELF going to be?

Leave a comment and let me know.

Until next time…..

Here’s to YOUR success…
