Have A Beer On Me at World Internet Summit!

I will be attending the World Internet Summit in Dallas, TX in May. I don’t do conferences much anymore.

So Why WIS?

Because a lot of friends will be there. Stephen Pierce, for one. He spends so much time in Australia and Asia that a chance to meet up with him in the States is getting more and more rare!

And because I believe Brett McFall, Tom Hua, and Pierce really deliver the goods.

Oh, and because registration is only $97. I hate paying thousands for conferences as much as the next guy regardless of how much is in the ‘ol bank account.

So, if you live in Texas, I’d love to meet FTR readers in person at the World Internet Summit. I’ll buy you a beer! (Or a suitable substitute for non-hop heads.)

If you don’t live in Texas, like me, I really believe this conference will be worth the trip. We just surveyed our big list and found that many readers are just perfect for this kind of training.

They even have a “newbies” day, the first of its kind, where they really break down the basics of internet marketing and making money online so that rank beginners can understand and not be intimidated by esoteric geek speak.

So, I’d love to meet as many readers as possible, including clients of ASC or SPL! The price is right and the “goodie bag” they are giving attendees is worth 100 times the cost of flying, hotel and registration.

The Art of New Media Copywriting

Michel Fortin is holding a workshop on new media copywriting and testing. Fortin, one of the web’s top performing copywriters with clients like John Reese, Frank Kern, Shawn Casey, Stephen Pierce, and some guy named Jay Abraham, will be showing people how to avoid the pitfalls of new media copywriting.

The web is wise to audio and video now. People aren’t impressed simply because you put up a video on your landing page. That is no longer a conversion tool by itself. Today, that video had better have some science behind it if you want it to actually boost your conversions and not drop them.

Michel is an avid tester and now he’s into testing copy for new media. In fact, on the next page he shows videos side by side that succeeded and failed to convert. Can you pick which one did better?

New: Copywritng videos from John Carlton and Ted Nicholas!

You’re Off To See The Wizard…

Are you confused? I don’t blame you.

If I had this much information to choose from along with a learning curve such as the one that faces every new marketer on the web now when I started out 10 years ago, I would be too!

What many people consider a good thing can actually hold new and seasoned marketers back: a plethora of opportunities, choices, systems, and business models for profiting from an internet business. Sounds great until you get “shiny thing” syndrome and end up doing nothing more than buying a bunch of stuff and never getting down to business with any one model or system.

Which is a real shame because while you are floundering, people are making vast sums of money on the web. People who were just like you are now: new and confused.

Add to that the fact that most people get in over their heads without ever considering that there are basics to learn before going head first into high-end internet business. A lot of people fail because they start out by skipping over a lot of the things they must know before they can possibly succeed with any internet business.

There is a gatekeeper on the web for internet business.

When it comes to direct sales, list building, product development and branding, there is one person you need to see before heading off to Oz. He is the Wizard, but in this case, he’s not faking it behind a curtain. This is a REAL Wizard.

If you are up to your eye balls in confusion and are leaving a vast chain of failures behind you, you need to see the Wizard. I have sent countless people to see him and he never fails to get people on track with their internet businesses.

Bypassing the Wizard before embarking on a perilous journey through the dark web of misinformation and misdirection is a 100% guarantee of failure.

If you need a heart for ecommerce, a brain for list building, or the courage to achieve, you need to see the Wizard.

Who Loved The Authority Summit?

Here are some posts popping up from my friends who attended the Summit this year in Vegas. Everyone seems to be talking up Howie Schwartz, my buddy and co-author of Bend the Web. As well they should be. He blew people away with his search engine-bending, conversation dominating results for competitive niches.

All the speakers were top notch and VERY giving in secrets and tactics. If you didn’t go, the DVDs will be coming out early November.

Here’s what others are saying about the Summit:

• Did You Smell That? ‘How good was Howie Schwartz? Just his one hour of content completely made the 5 hour flight worthwhile.’
• Home with Heather. ‘Learn How To Lead ANY Conversation In ANY Niche!’
• Jason Moffatt. ‘I’d Be A Much Richer Man If I Would Of Listened To David Bullock’s Website Tracking Info’
• Neill Neill. ‘Finding Happiness at the Authority Summit’
• Sales and Marketing. ‘One of the biggest reminders I got from the Summit was about the concept of leverage.’

Perhaps my greatest take away was the idea that a hobbyist does it all themselves and that a business person gets things done…outsourcing. I have been stuck in the mundane and not looking at the vision of how to evolve to the next level.  Oh and Howie “Other people show up to a duel with a pistol…I bring guns, tanks planes…I’m not there to win but to dominate”. Gotta love it.

One of the things I talked about at the Summit was “Pavlov’s Blog.” You should recognize a bit of that tactic here. Training other sites to link to you is the same thing Pavlov did with his classical conditioning research.

For some “inexplicable reason” many people feel compelled to write about me, FTR, or my products and services. It’s actually “explicable” but you have to read Bend the Web to understand how it works.

Did you write about your experience at the Authority Summit and I didn’t find it? Let me know and get a link as I update this post with new feedback.

Here’s a thought…

Hypothetically speaking…

Would you fly to Las Vegas to learn about one thing from one person if it meant you could come home and begin to dominate hot keywords in the search engines at will?

And by dominate, I mean be a significant part of the top 20-30-50-100+ results for a keyword topic. I mean up to the top 10 PAGES of results in Google!

Seems like anyone would want that information and be willing to pay a second mortgage to get it. What would it be worth to your business to do such a thing at will? You can do that math.

The opportunity is real actually. And it won’t cost much of anything to get this information. But time is slipping away. September 8-9th at the Tuscany Resorts in downtown Las Vegas we are having a little get together.

Just one of the speakers is going to show you the above technique.

And there are more mind-blowing things planned with the 7 other trainers including Mike Filsaime, Michel and Sylvie Fortin, Mike Stewart, Elsom Eldridge, David Bullock, Barbara Drazga, Mark Braunstein and yours truly.

I’ve watched people plunk down tens of thousands of dollars for ridiculous things in this business that got them nowhere. And they didn’t even get to see the Blue Man Group or Cirque de Soleil or learn how to play craps from our resident expert Mark Braunstein.

Time is running out to take your online business, no matter how successful it might be, to the next level (or skip several levels and go right to the top!).

So, would you travel to the entertainment capital of the world to learn how to take over your market niche?

Free Marketing Training in Atlanta

My friend Mark Hendricks is putting on a completely free internet marketing conference lasting 2 days in Atlanta, GA, August 18-19 2007.

Mark is one of the quiet giants when it comes to online marketing. Not as many people know about him as, say, Jay Abraham, but he’s responsible for improving the businesses of thousands of internet entrepreneurs nonetheless. And Jay Abraham isn’t sharing all his marketing secrets for free (no catch) in Atlanta in August!

If you are in the Atlanta area, you have no excuse not to go whatsoever. But even if you have to travel a bit, you have my personal guarantee that you are going to come away with something that is going to help your business immensely.

See you in Atlanta!

Remember Tag and Ping? We Helped Break That Whole Phenomenon Last Year!

Below is a video from Sean Wu’s Tag and Ping presentation at last year’s Authority Summit in Vegas.

Few people know this but Sean chose us to break him onto the internet marketing scene with Tag and Ping. No one knew him and this was his first product. Then he ends up on the stage at the Summit in Vegas and things have never been the same for him, nor the people he has helped get a lot of traffic.

That’s the spirit of the Authority Summit. Find people who are doing miraculous things, are not necessarily household names yet, but who are on the front lines of authority site building tactics.

Sean Wu is one of those people. Here he is at last year’s Summit…

Get your butt to the Authority Summit ‘07 and do more for your online presence than you ever thought was possible!

Mike Filsaime Added To Authority Summit!

With some persistence, bribery, followup, and a promise to let him beat us at the poker tables, Mike Filsaime finally caved in and agreed to come to boring, ho-hum, sleepy Las Vegas for the Authority Summit.

He spoke last year and we couldn’t let him be.  He has to come back.  There’s something about having Dave Lakhani, Michel and Sylvie Fortin, and Mike Filsaime on the same stage that makes for a powerful weekend of learning from true masters of their craft.

Then you have the rest of the field of speakers which makes this weekend imperative for anyone wanting to seriously grow their online presence beyond 99.9% of the people who think it might be “neat” to have an internet-based business.

Speakers List for Authority Summit 2007 

• Michel (Michael) and Sylvie Fortin
• Dave Lakhani
• Mike Filsaime
• Elsom Eldridge
• Dave Bullock
• Barbara Drazga
• Rick Butts
• Mark Braunstein
• Jack Humphrey

Read all about what each expert above is going to teach you in Vegas and why you absolutely need to make your reservations today.  This isn’t a “take it or leave it pitch fest.”  The Authority Summit is designed to give attendees actionable training they can take all the way to the bank.

Plus it’s going to likely be the most fun you will have had in all of 2007, especially if you have been working non stop on your site(s) and business this year!
