At the February 15th - 17th, 2007 “Stompernet
Live” Seminar, Jeff Johnson, in his excellent
presentation, pointed out that 70+ % of all
projects started are never finished. He pointed
out that is not only true for Internet marketers,
but even true in many large companies.
The problem, as Jeff sees it, is actually project
management and accountability. Jeff explained that
he manages project managers. He outsources the work,
has people managing those the work is outsources to,
and has people managing those managers.
I like Jeff’s model, and think that he’s absolutely
brilliant. I managed to get about 20 minutes of
video when I’m interviewing Jeff and a number of
other marketers, although I’m not sure how we’ll
use that video. We originally shot it for the product
we’re launching from
http://TheInternetMarketingInnerCircle.com
I think that Jeff’s numbers are fairly accurate
based upon personal experience and that Of coaching
clients. I’ve started numerous projects that I
never finished… some fairly simple.
As an example, I had two sets of articles ghost written
several months ago. One set of articles was to be sold
as a private label rights packages. The other one was to
be used for traffic generation. After spending hundreds
on having these articles written, my team decided that
the articles needed to be improved. We never got around
to improving them… so they sit in a folder on my
harddrive and also the harddrives of 2 associates.
We just try to do too many things and get side-tracked
too easy. We volunteer for too many seemingly easy
projects and find ourselves overwhelmed.
I like Ron Legrand’s saying “The less I do, the more I
make.” He delegates, outsources and manages rather than
doing the work himself. That’s also what Jeff does.
By the way, StomperNet has it’s next member seminar in
early June (in Atlanta). I’ll probably be there.
StomperNet is also getting reopening memberships soon.
After the February StomperNet seminar, I’m convinced that
it’s one of the best values available anywhere!
Here’s an email about an incredible video just released
that I recently sent to my list:
This is an AWESOME video!
The subject’s name is Britt.
Early Thirties, married, 2 kids, works full time.
*And he’s getting ready to quit his day job.
*After starting his web site 4 months ago.
*And he only worked on his site 2 hours a day.
You’ve GOT to see this:

Why am I showing you this video?
Well, you probably remember all the hype that flooded your
in-box when StomperNet hit the scene 6 months ago.
“StomperNet THIS.” “StomperNet THAT.”
It was a feeding frenzy - email after email with claim after
claim.
I mean, EVERY “Product Launch” these days promises some sort of
Secret, or Competitive Edge, or Unfair Advantage. Those phrases
are getting pretty tired. Tired, old, ugly, and pretty annoying,
actually.
It got to be a little ridiculous.
That’s why it was interesting to see the StomperNet sales
letter. Instead of the (sadly) typical HEADLINE that said,
“Discover how to make TEN MILLION DOLLARS during your next hair
cut appointment”.
… or some non-sense like that, the StomperNet HEADLINE was:
— “This Space Intentionally Left Blank” —
LOL! That took some guts. I’ll give ‘em that.
But it doesn’t matter. Guts, Hype, Claims - none of it matters
if StomperNet didn’t work.
So, did it?
You could ask Andy Jenkins and Brad Fallon, and of course, they
are going to say “Yes”.
They’ll point out that StomperNet added 8 Faculty Members, has
held 2 of their planned 4 Live Conferences, they have 30 Paid
and Trained Moderators in their forum, and over 50,000
Discussions in the StomperNet members portal.
But so what?
Any Cake can have good ingredients - Chocolate, Sugar, Frosting,
More Sugar.
It’s how the Cake gets baked - that’s what counts.
What I mean is, the only thing that matters is the RESULTS that
people get from the information, not the information itself!
Look, the information provided through StomperNet has been
Excellent. I’ve been inside the portal, listened to some of
their Twice Weekly eCoaching Calls, watched the On-Going Video
Training, and have even seen some of the 40 (it might be more
than that) DVDs that they’ve sent to their members.
— BUT DID IT ALL OF THIS INFORMATION WORK??? —
Did people who subscribed to StomperNet actually make any more
money because of being there?
It’s been a whole “Semester” (As Andy likes to say) and by this
point, there SHOULD BE members that have gotten REAL RESULTS
from being in StomperNet.
— SHOULD BE —
One part of the StomperNet launch that I did like (I’m a sucker
for proof) was the case studies. There were literally dozens of
screen captures during the first StomperNet launch that showed
REAL web sites from REAL members.
That was cool. You could actually go to the Search Engines,
enter a Term or Phrase from the case study, and see the actual
site RANKING for that search.
That was impressive because most Snake-Oil Gurus wouldn’t even
DREAM of showing you their sites - and these were NOT Brad and
Andy’s sites (They showed theirs too, but they SHOULD be ranking
on the top, right?) - these were customers sites!
Again, that took some guts.
But that was six months ago.
And in six months –
Search Engines change their voodoo.
Markets get more competitive.
Consumers get more sophisticated.
So, I asked Brad and Andy the question again:
— DID STOMPERNET WORK? —
Andy wrote back with a link to a video and said,
“Watch this.”
I replied “Oh, so you happen to have a NEW Case Study lying
around to show me”.
He wrote back; “No Silly (Okay, he didn’t say “Silly”), we’re
re-opening StomperNet, and this is one example of the HUNDREDS
of people that have KILLED it with StomperNet’s training.”
Here’s the link to the video:

If you aren’t yet making as much money as you’d like to online
and you think you COULD earn more if you learned more, then
you’ve got to watch this.
I did, and here’s a guy who went from ZERO to $15,000 PER MONTH
and he is NOT afraid to share his success to you.
– And he did it working only 2 hours per day! –
Kudos to anyone with that kind of “Help others on your way up
the ladder” abundance-minded mentality.
It’s free to watch — you don’t even have to opt-in or anything
– click the link below to see it while it’s available:

So, 2 things here:
1. StomperNet is RE-Opening - after 6 long months of
Silence.
2. If this Case Study is any indication of how GOOD
StomperNet turned out to be then.
— StomperNet DID work - like a Champ! —
This is a NEW CASE STUDY from a real, current StomperNet member.
I have never seen a customer so NOT afraid to share his success.
http://www.stompernet.net/jvp/aw.aspx?A=103
In his video, he’s going to tell you how he increased his Opt-In
Rate by 400%!!! And how he gets 1 out of every 4 customers to
buy from him AGAIN!
Oh, and by the way, this is an eCommerce Store that’s just 4
months old.
Don’t miss it.
Thanks,
Willie Crawford
P.S. I just got another message from Andy. They’ve got a LOT
more Case Studies that they’re posting for review. And it looks
like there’s some sort of CRAZY offer they’re going to make to
NEW StomperNet customers.
Stay Tuned!
P.P.S. Make sure you watch that video - This StomperNet member
went from Zero Dollars (he started from Scratch) to $15,000 A
MONTH in sales.
