Be Absolutely Nuts For 2009 And Explode Your Business!
When he put together his Birthday Blowout, I was shocked by his generosity. After all, many of those products he was giving away free are sold for excellent money every day!
When he decided to follow up with yet another mind-blowing offer, I knew he was nuts. For sure.
If you’ve not taken a look yet, go and see it now: Absolutely Nuts Offer :: ICGM
(I’ll wait…)
Back? Good.
Stunned, aren’t you? (grin)
I remember when he began putting it together, he had a fantastic package all put together and then he just… kept ADDING MORE. AND MORE.
AND MORE!
Sincerely, it’s almost ridiculous how much is included.
If you have ANY desire to make some serious cash in 2009 – scratch that… if you want to start making real income within the next 3 months, you HAVE to get this.
And for this price? Man, you’d have to be crazy NOT to take it and run!
The spaces are filling up, and I KNOW Tony would prefer that true Blakers were the ones who benefit, but if you snooze, you lose! There are only a total of 51 spots available…
Go right now and check out the sales page, see all he has included. You’ll be blown away, I promise!
***I’ll let you in on a little secret…***
Tony and I have been business partners and very close friends for over a year, and he just spent two weeks with me here in Canada to put some projects together and pack this offer full of value. I can personally vouch for the fact that you will be completely astonished by everything you’ll get – including “unadvertised” stuff… he just never stops!!
Don’t waste a single moment more…
Make 2009 an explosive year for you and your business… Tony can truly help you do it.
Have a wonderful New Year!
A New Era For The Original Social Networks: Forums
I can recall back in the internet “olden days” when discussion groups were the only way to communicate with a group of people. The old bulletin boards were populated by the true die-hard computer geeks, when internet marketing was still just a baby.
I wish I knew then what I know now!
The real advent of group communications came along for mainstream internet use with forums… the original social networks. These wonderful tools for communicating with the masses exploded into every niche, allowing people from all over the globe to connect, converse and share.
There are several forums in the Internet Marketing niche that have stood the test of time: the Warrior Forum, the Anthony Blake Forum, and a handful of others are the few who were vibrant, active forums before the year 2000. These forums are the cornerstones on which many marketers build their internet empires!
In the fall of 2007, I brainstormed with a group of spectacularly brilliant marketers – one of which was the legendary Tony Blake. In a dazzling session filled with hypothetical ideas, wishes and enthusiasm, an idea formed in Tony’s mind… and that idea was to take his old-fashioned forum of 15 years and redefine what an Internet Marketing Forum should be in the 21st century!
Through months of research, planning and development, a new era in Internet Marketing Forums was born… there were many sleepless nights and excitement continued to build as “launch day” approached!
On March 12th, 2008, the brand-new Anthony Blake Online – Entrepreneurial Success Forum made it’s debut to the delight and amazement of it’s long-time, online community.
The ABlakeForum has leaped into the 21st century with features like user-embedded video, audio and images; a dedicated social network, exclusive “Members Only” content, frequent contests and prizes, social bookmarking and submissions, the ability to use affiliate links in signature files, increasingly lively discussions without worry of being deleted, zero tolerance SPAM security enhancements, expert-moderated forums in several internet marketing related categories, and so much more!
And the best is yet to come!! I know of several new features being primed for release this month alone… and all of it geared to helping you profit from your internet business!
How do I know all of this?
I’m one of three Admins on the forum – Tony Blake himself, of course, who keeps a close watch over everything; then there’s me, and my focus is on Development/Design; and Terry Crim the Technical Administrator, who’s expertise keeps the forum running smoothly, efficiently and securely.
If you haven’t yet registered at the ABlakeForum, now is definitely the time! There are so many features coming your way, several of which will be in “Members Only” areas that I’d hate to see anyone left out! Oh, and did I tell you – membership is FREE? That’s right…
Over the past 6 months, there’s been a decided decrease in forum participation across the internet. With quicker, easier ways to communicate like social networks, and those with instant gratification and feedback, such as Twitter, many of the mainstream forums have been discouraged by the lack of visitors.
I’ve watched some of the more popular forums struggle with implementing new ideas, yet there is still a general discontent with the way things are… holding onto what worked in the past is often a recipe for failure in the future if there is no room for growth and change.
But not at the ABlakeForum!
We’re happy to report a steady increase in visitors and traffic – far greater than we could have hoped for or expected only months after the re-launch! Our membership is growing daily, and we’re attracting some of the most brilliant marketing minds around to share and educate.
I hope to see you there! We’d love to hear your feedback, and we’re excited to roll out the newest features of this 21st century marketing forum over the summer. Don’t miss out! Sign up FREE today!
The Perceived Value Of “Free”
In recent months, there has been a notable increase in marketers talking about “moving the free line”, and generally instructing new marketers to give away valuable content to build their lists, in order to create customers in the future.
On the surface, there seemed to be some value in this advice. After all, there are giveaways popping up daily, free reports everywhere… all with the intention of obtaining that all-important email address on a double opt-in form.
I decided to test this theory. (This is a simplified version)
I am creating a product for a niche I have been active in for some time. (Sorry, I am not going to reveal the niche; suffice it to say that it’s as competitive as the IM niche). The product I am developing contains useful software, a detailed info product on pdf, an audio version of the info product and a video showing how to use the software along with the info product.
I will create one other product of similar value and structure, and two reports with additional, related advice and tips.
I’ll purchase two very similar domain names, created two websites. One website to give away the product for free, just for opting in to my list.
The other will be a basic sales page using similar language, but charging $67 for the product. Upon successful payment, the customer will be directed to the download page which includes an opt-in form for the same newsletter.
I will employ the exact same marketing strategies to each site. I’ll drive traffic, use PPC, post in related forums, create articles – all the usual things.
The opt-in will enroll each subscriber in to a seven part email series as follows:
- (immediate delivery) A thank you for downloading the product, along with their download link in case they weren’t redirected after payment/signup.
- (two days later) A repeat of the benefits of the product, and encouragement to take action with it. I’ll also include a link to download one of the two reports I am creating as an additional bonus.
- (three days later) Pure content, highly related to the product and includes several valuable resources for more information.
- (three days later) Again, pure, actionable content.
- (three days later) Give away the second bonus report. This bonus report is a lead-in to the second product, and in fact has links inside taking them to the product sales page.
- (three days later) Again content, leaving off with a teaser at the end about how a specific problem talked about would be solved in the next email and to watch for it.
- (sent out two days later) Purely promotional, sending subscribers to the sales page for my second product. This product will be priced at $47.
Can you predict what my results will be?
I’d love to hear your thoughts!!
