Humor???
Police in Oakland,
California spent two
hours attempting to subdue a gunman who
had barricaded himself inside his home.
After firing 10 tear gas canisters,
officers discovered that the man was
standing beside them in the police line,
shouting "Please come out and give
yourself up."

Report on the Internet Marketing Super
Conference - Las Vegas
I'm just back from
this conference and I'm sorry you
didn't make it. The pre
conference hype said you could jump
start your internet business and save
a year of time. I now believe
that may be an understatement. The
quality and quantity of how to do it
information delivered by the 12
speakers was tremendous.
Equally important was the fact that
the conference was designed with
plenty of time to have face to face
meetings with both speakers and fellow
attendees.
I went specifically
looking for joint venture
possibilities for a new ebook project
I will be launching in July. I'm
happy to say that a couple of really
big names in Internet Marketing will
be helping to roll out my product when
it launches. It's an
understatement to say I'm excited
about that. These guys get many,
many JV proposals every week via
email, but seldom have (or take) the
time to review them. Being able
to speak to them directly made all the
difference the world.
Note: This
conference was video taped and tapes
will be available in the near future
but I don't have the pricing or links
just yet. I'll let you know.
I'm going to feature
several of the conference speakers in
the Hot Stuff section for the next few
issues so you can get a feel for type
of information presented at the
conference.
Hot Stuff!! - Meet Jim Edwards
Jim Edwards
would quickly rise to the
top of any list of successful internet
marketers. He has been the #1
best author at ClickBack in the
Internet Marketing category for over a
year. If fact he has 2 ebooks
that compete for the #1 position every
week. His 2 hour presentation on
how to publish ebooks and reports with
virtually zero promo costs was a real
eye opener. He is a specialist
at training people on how to write
ebooks, reports and headlines.
Speaking of headlines - here's the one
that competes for the number one
ranking at Clickbank.
“How to write and publish your own
OUTRAGEOUSLY Profitable eBook in as
little as 7 days – even if you can’t
write, can’t type and failed high
school English class!”
This is the book I
purchased a few weeks ago to help me
with the project I mentioned above.
Great information - Jim believes in
over delivering on content so you get
excellent value with his products.
You've probably seen Jim's classic
product -
ebook Secrets Exposed. If
you're wondering how Jim builds huge
volumes of traffic to his sites at
virtually no cost then take a look at
Turn Words into Traffic.
Just to show that
his techniques work on a broad
spectrum of products - Jim has written
ebooks on selling your own home, home
mortgages, and even has a software
program that
cloaks affiliate links.
Hot
Stuff!! - Don't Get Caught In this
Trap!
Did you know that
you are not only responsible for the
claims you make on your website or in
your emails but also the claims that
you quote or link (affiliate links) to
on the Internet. Think about
that for a minute!
That's just one of
the eye openers I got from meeting
Bruce Safran, an attorney and author
of
WebAutoLaw Pro, at the Super
Conference. You've no doubt seen
the promo's for this because its one
of the hottest selling products on the
net. Complying with FTC rules
and regulations is a huge issue that
impacts anyone with a web site, ezine,
newsletter, or any online marketing.
The Feds have assembled a task force
(their words) to review Internet
Marketers and enforce consumer law.
After having lunch with Bruce I came
to understand that its not just the
big boys they're looking at. They can
easily start with one of the big sites
and then just search for the affiliate
links.
Bruce also talked
about the importance of protecting
your intellectual property rights for
any ezine, report, web site, software
you've published. Their
are specific steps you must take to
protect your self. In my opinion
if its worth doing its worth
protecting.
Editors note:
I purchased this product almost the
day it launched. It took me less
than 30 minutes to evaluate my site,
newsletter, affiliate links, and to
make appropriate changes and generate
the appropriate disclaimers customized
specifically for my site. Before
I left for the super conference I used
WebAutoLaw to protect my new ebook
that I was planning to promote.
The software even generated the exact
form I needed to register my book with
the US Copyright Office.
Take a moment and
cover your tail on this issue.

Personal Success - Vitamins for the Mind -
Jim Rohn
Editors note: Jim is perhaps the
foremost personal and business
philosopher alive today. I'm about
7 months into his 1 year personal
coaching program. Its one of many
courses, tapes, and books that Jim
offers. Its made a terrific impact
on my life by helping me define where
I'm going and how to get there.
If you're looking for more success in
your life - Jim will help you get there.
Profits are Better than
Wages
My mentor, when I was 25 years old,
dropped a phrase on me that changed my
life forever when he said, "profits are
better than wages. Wages will make you a
living, profits can make you a fortune."
You know it is a bit difficult to get
rich on wages, but anybody can get rich
on profits. Profits change your whole
attitude, even if you start part-time.
Whether it's part time on your
entrepreneurial business, network
marketing company or service business.
It can be a landscape business in the
summer or hanging Christmas lights in
the winter. It can be training,
consulting or tutoring. It can be your
hobby such as painting, writing, crafts,
woodworking, computers or cooking. But
once you start investing even part time
effort into your own business, you will
find how much more exciting it is to get
up in the morning and go to work on your
fortune, even if you're only spending a
few hours a week doing it.
How empowering it is to be able to go to
work on your fortune every day rather
than going to work to pay the rent. Now
- it is noble to go to work to pay the
rent, but if you could also parcel out
part of your time - go to work to make
your fortune. Your whole attitude
changes; your spirit changes. It is in
your voice. It is in your face. It is in
your gestures. And then you can say, "I
am now working full-time on my job and
part-time on my fortune because I found
a way to make profits." Wow!
And I will know what you mean.
