This idea is so BIG it’s not gonna fit on the page!

I just want to share with you guys the real excitement I and the Everyday Wealth Team are feeling over this one. This will start an online revolution.

The major component that’s going to drive success in the Autopilot Wealth Institute is learning- not selling but learning.

I’m not content any more that people just buy my programs and then put them on the shelf. I want people to learn and DO IT. To make money, fix up their lives and really feel the kudos that success online will bring.

With that in mind, we are going to introduce something nobody ever thought of before, which is that students will have to take and pass a test (almost said that dread word exam). But, hey, it’s not meant to be a barrier, like an examination. More of a quality check. We want our work to succeed, so that you guys succeed.

I got this idea from looking at the difference between the courses marketed online and what happens out there in the workaday world. People could buy and download a course, not follow the steps, learn nothing and then bitch “It didn’t work”.

In a real university, if you don’t study and learn what you are supposed to, you don’t get the diploma and that’s that. I think more Internet marketer should take this line and follow through on their delivery, not just take the money and shrug when a student doesn’t get the results he or she paid for.

My model for this learning Institute is that you don’t get to go to the next module until you’ve shown you’ve completed the step before. We won’t even give you the password! That’s how strongly I feel about this.

Stay tuned daily. This launches tomorrow and will explode fast.

It seems like at least once a week I get one of my students calling me about how they’re quitting their job. Does working in the corporate sphere really suck that bad? It got me thinking.

Paid vacations, fortune 500 benefits, great salary, bonuses, company car…life couldn’t be greater…right? If it’s such a great gig, why do so many people spend 80% of their working day thinking about how much they hate it? The answer is simple, it’s engrained in our DNA.

Really. I’m a scientist* so I should know :)
(scientist=high school drop out)

In all seriousness…throughout history mankind has striven to explore, to lead, to create, and to invent. It seems to bring us a feeling of greatness that can only be achieved through entrepreneurship. While working for someone else CAN be fulfilling, there is a certain group of “unemployables” who will always know, they are destined to go out on their own.

For me, I couldn’t keep a job. I hated working for other people…really I hated listening to them because they wouldn’t listen to me. I wanted my ideas heard. I wanted to create and invent. To be noticed. I eventually realized that the workplace wasn’t for me. I quickly go out of it and over a short period of time became finacially free online. I made more money online in a month that I had in a year working for other people…

Fast forward a few years and I own a multi-million dollar company teaching others my secrets to success.

Fortunately, it’s not as hard to do as many think which is why I get so many people calling me about their “quit” day. Most of them have a specific date set in their minds and strive to reach it. A few, do it on a whim after they generate a quick 5 figures online.

If you want to reach that goal, you need to have one set. Sounds simple but it’s the first step. Set your quitting date because…working sucks.

One of the hardest things in business is not growing but surviving growing!! The explosion of Apple nearly crashed it and cost Steve Jobs his position. At FX marketing we are experiencing exciting growth but it’s pushing us close the wire as far as managing the flood is concerned.

Recently, as we bent under the torrent of orders for the Autopilot Sales Formula, I realized we had passed a certain critical mass. It was time to get help.

I’m not a business person. This is the first time I have ever owned and run my own business. The actual management is a whole different ball game to marketing products which, I admit, I’m good at. But that doesn’t qualify me to run a business.

It’s smart to know when you need help and I realized I didn’t know enough to cope with fast expansion and not fall into chaos at the office. I decided to bring in consultants and we are having a team move in to teach us sound business methods and systems.

I hope all customers will soon appreciate the beneficial changes.

The liberation of doing business on the Internet is great. We all long to live the life of freedom and luxury, but it is still a business and has to be run like one. That’s probably one of the big mistakes of Internet newbies: not treating their venture as a serious business FROM THE START.

I talk about this in “Everyday Money”. It’s a free CD, you pay shipping. So you might care to get signed up and give it a listen. You can also sign up for Profit Creation Monthly, my magazine newsletter for Internet entrepreneurs.

Troubles when you are rich and successful

We’ve thrown a blitz into handling support tickets. With Amy away on vacation, a backlog quickly built up, despite putting several staff onto it. My concern was to get people the help they needed as fast as possible. Nothing affects a business more than the way its after-sales care is perceived.

And I do mean “perceived” because it doesn’t matter how conscientious and honest you are, people only care about their own interests. If you keep them waiting for more than a couple of days, you start to read words like “scam” and “crooks” and other unpleasant accusations.

It’s not a requirement that customers seeking support should be polite but if I had my way, it would be.

Many customer support problems are quite genuine (you would be surprised how many are ridiculous or trivial) but that does not mean that the person who has to deal with the tickets is the cause of the problem or in any way to blame.

I feel sorry for Amy when she has to take the brunt of really rude remarks from people seeking answers. It does not serve the cause which, at the end of the day, we all have in common, which is solving the problems encountered.

And another point: I’ve sold tens of thousands of products, good products, knowing they work and work well. The army of satisfied users attests to that. So when some unpleasant character, who often can’t or won’t read the instructions or can’t or won’t carry out the assignments to get the results we are guaranteeing, starts claiming the product is nonsense (or worse) I know we are dealing with a buffoon.

Yet we are supposed to take these obnoxious tirades politely, without retaliating, and still come up with answers that satisfy.

It’s something you folks are going to have to learn when you get successful and, believe me, it’s not easy.

Don’t get me wrong. Millions of dollars income solves lots of problems and it’s a salve for a lot of wounded pride. Join me, won’t you.

You know what’s great about Internet marketing and why it all works? It’s because there are LOTS of other people out there who want to make money online too. They’ll help you, if you help them! So you can sell their products to your list and they can sell your products to their list. It’s usual, with digital products, to split the proceeds 50/50.

It’s called a “joint venture” relationship. Effectively it doubles your marketing exposure at a stroke (assuming their list is about the same size as yours). Brilliant!

But why stop at just one JV partner? If one partner is good, ten would be great. In fact we recommend you try to find about 30 partners for a product launch. That will give your product a real impact. A jv venture is probably the best way to make money online.

All benefits aside, Joint Venturing requires some planning. Here are some important DOs and DON’Ts:

DO. Select your partners with care. Make sure they are people you know perform well (you’ve been watching them online), or they work with someone you already know and trust or (best of all maybe), someone you met in person, perhaps at a seminar.

DO. Research your potential JV partners. Sign up for their publications, visit their websites, read everything about them and their history. Try to understand their values and motivation as best you can from what they make public.

DO. Figure out what you can do for him or her, not the other way round. Start asking, what value could I provide this partner? What do I have that they don’t? What could they be doing that they aren’t? What challenge or goals are they pursuing and how can I help them get there?

DO. Remember that JVs are a personal one-to-one thing, not based on mass mailings. You get to know each other, learn to like and trust each other. Truly great joint ventures with the potential to make you rich will take root only with a customized, personal approach.

DON’T. Be afraid to approach strangers. One of the great things about making money online is that even successful people will be open to an approach from you. Why is this? Probably because most online business owners realize, ‘you never know where then next great idea or opportunity is going to come along.’

DON’T. Approach a potential partner without a clear project in mind, preferably ready to run with a launch date in view. In other words, do NOT approach a joint venture partner with the following: ‘So, what do you think? Wanna do something together?’

If all you have is a vague ‘Hey, let’s do something and make money online together,’ you won’t have answered their first obvious question: ‘Why should I work with a stranger, when I can sit around and brainstorm with friends.’

It’s like fishing; you get the lure right and the fish will surely bite.

In this case you don’t eat the “fish”, they become firm friends and make you a lot of money.

Good hunting!

Listen up folks, we’re working on a major launch next week. We’ve been hard at work bringing you what could be the best Internet sales training program ever.

I and my team leaders, Marc Horne and Hollis Carter, recently spent a whole day disgorging EVERYTHING we know about Internet sales to an excited audience. The whole program was filmed and the DVD set will be available, as of June 10^th. Dan, our AV specialist, was up all last night, editing and outputting some great quality material you’re gonna love.

We’re calling this the Autopilot Sales Formula. It’s in the name: how to set up a guaranteed pathway to all the wealth you want. It’s a totally proven system that earned me over $2million income last year. All you have to do is copy the plan and implement the steps. It couldn’t be easier.

So why don’t more people do it? They try to cut corners or get lazy. But nobody said wealth building was easy. It’s SIMPLE but not easy. Like anything else in life, there is a right and wrong way to do it. If you follow a proven system and actually implement all parts of the formula, you can’t lose (try making a cake and just miss out the eggs! See what I’m saying?)

I really want you to succeed. My successful students are not competition for me – they help build my reputation as a formidable teacher.

To make sure you become successful, we’ve put forward some killer content on topics such as product development, sales pages, getting traffic, finding affiliates and JVs, launch strategy, positioning, pricing and one time offers.

These are all terms you may have heard. But you need to put them together properly to make everything work. Think of it like music. Everyone uses the same 12 notes. But if you don’t play the correct notes in the correct order, you get disharmony, not music.

While we are talking music, let me tell ya, this package rocks! Or if you prefer, it’s Mozart for moneymaking!

Most internet marketing newbie’s start off promoting their website by looking for free methods to drive traffic. I personally used traffic exchanges, article marketing, safelists, press releases, and even search engine optimization (SEO). None of those methods drove traffic as much as my article marketing methods…

Now there’s a fantastic easy way to get articles circulated virally, without any work. I only wish Mike Filsaime’s brilliant new resource had been available when I started out… Read more »
