Free Network Marketing Teleclasses in October
September 29, 2007 | 1 Comment
I love free teleclasses. They’re a great way to get an introduction to someone’s material and find out if it’s something you want to pursue further. I also love network marketing (at its best — at its worst I’m as annoyed by it as anybody else). What makes the difference between good network marketing and bad network marketing? Training. More specifically, good training.
So I was really pleased when my friend Gail Stolzenburg called me up and told me about the free MLM teleclass program he’s involved with and invited me to join them and offer a class on building your network online.
Here is a sample of what will be featured for the month of October:
*Discover the virtual handshake to build your network online
*Learn how to prospect like a professional
*Find out the 7 keys to getting all the free publicity you want
*Double your sales
*Know how to recruit with ease, to grow your team today
*Learn about the Irlen Method
*Find out how to manage fear
*Discover how to dump credit card debt
*Find three easy ways on how to empower children financially
*Envision how bio-energetic healing can change your life
*Learn how to deal with people differently
*Uncover the secrets to building your million dollar business
*Become wealthy without a job
*Create breakthroughs in every area of your life
*Know how to select a 6 or 7 figure network marketing opportunity
My class is on October 15, but the next class is Monday, October 1, so if you’d like to learn more, take a look at the detailed class schedule. The classes are free, but pre-registration is required (you can register through the schedule page).

Carnival of the Capitalists Spammer Exposed
August 20, 2007 | 5 Comments
I found him, and it didn’t take much work. It always kind of amazes me when someone seems to have a pretty “white-hat” appearance, and then you discover such blatant black-hat tactics.
In case you’re wondering what I’m talking about, in the submissions for today’s Carnival of the Capitalists, there were about 10 entries from a group of blogs, all of which were set up fairly recently, using the same basic layout, and (most importantly) were using articles from EzineArticles without proper attribution to the author or EzineArticles — and in almost every case they were cutting out the author resource box, which means this was being done by hand, and deliberately.
So who’s the culprit? Here’s all the evidence:

Carnival of the Capitalists 8-20-2007
August 20, 2007 | 12 Comments
Welcome to the August 20, 2007 edition of Carnival of the Capitalists. While blog carnivals have become all the rage lately, this one is the grand-daddy of them all, at least for business blogs. It’s one of the few that still travels from blog to blog each week (as a carnival should — that’s why they’re called carnivals, folks!), and I’m happy to be hosting it this week on my new blog, Revenue River. This site’s a little different than most of the sites that host CotC, but also a little different from most other sites covering the same topics. I hope you’ll poke around a few of the recent posts while you’re here.
Without any further adieu, here are this week’s entries:

CotC Will Be a Little Late, No Thanks to Sploggers
August 20, 2007 | 2 Comments
Well, folks, I was going to be on time with Carnival of the Capitalists, but unfortunately, it seems a large number of blogs have sprung up that are ripping off articles from EzineArticles and reposting them on blogs — stripping out the resource box and not giving proper credit. As if that weren’t bad enough, they’re then submitting them to blog carnivals.

Make Money with Embedded News Video from TheNewsRoom
August 16, 2007 | 2 Comments
More and more we’re seeing this trend in social media… revenue sharing with the social media and social networking content providers who are really the ones bringing eyeballs to these sites. The latest really cool addition to this that I’ve discovered is TheNewsRoom.
TheNewsRoom allows you to embed individual stories or a player featuring multiple stories, like the one below, on your site. Then they embed advertising within the player and you get a revenue share from it (more after the player).

No Pitch? Oh Really?
August 15, 2007 | 1 Comment
A couple of days ago, I ripped on AuthorityBlackBook.com a bit. Dave Taylor took me to task over it, saying I was over-generalizing based on the one issue in that post. But there’s certainly more than one issue, so here’s part 2 of my critique.
And by the way, I’ll just go ahead and give a teaser that I actually have read the e-book now, and for the most part, it’s pretty good — certainly worth the free download and an hour to read it. I’ll do a review of it in part 3, but for now, I’m going to talk about the sign-up process a little more.

The Hardest Way to Make Money Online
August 15, 2007 | 2 Comments
Someone will probably think this is sacrilegious (yes, that is actually how it’s spelled, not “sacreligious”) and take offense, but you know… if anyone has a sense of humor, it’s God, so…

Pet Peeve: Web 2.0 Gurus Who Really Don’t Get Web 2.0
August 12, 2007 | 18 Comments
I have a pet peeve. See, everyone is hopping on the Web 2.0 bandwagon these days, especially all the internet marketing gurus. Now, these guys (and a few gals) really know how to write good sales letters, compelling squeeze pages, and so on. And a lot of them have figured out how to make some pretty good money by leveraging blogs, MySpace, and so on.
But fairly often, they do something really bone-headed that shows that they still just don’t completely get it.

Paid Surveys Are Sometimes Better Than Advertised
August 2, 2007 | Leave a Comment
I’ve done the math on GPT (Get Paid To) sites — get paid to read e-mails, get paid to take surveys, etc. — and if you do everything they send you, you’re probably only going to net about $8 an hour (but you can improve that).
Now, that beats the heck out of a minimum-wage job in a cubicle or a fast-food restaurant, and it doesn’t cost you a dime to participate and get started. Also, a lot of the work takes place a few seconds or a few minutes at a time. So if you’re home-bound and have a lot of distractions, it still works for you, whereas a traditional job and even a lot of work-at-home opportunities might not.
The secret, though, to making better money at these things is knowing how to watch for the better payout opportunities and taking advantage of them.

A Note About Ads on Revenue River
July 27, 2007 | 6 Comments
If you’ve visited a fair number of blogs before, as you poke around Revenue River you may notice the conspicuous absence of Google Ads, Blogads, and many of the other familiar advertising networks. You will, however, see ads.
Why have I chosen not to use those ad networks? And what’s different about the ads that are on here?
