A Gift I Sent Via Email

Monday, December 31st, 2007

I sent this to part of my list today, and wanted to make
sure that spam filters didn’t keep you from getting it:

I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you
something very, very important…

…Thank YOU!

Yep, I mean it…without people like you we’d be positively,
100% out of business. As I watched 2007 draw to a close, I was
thinking of some special way to show how much we appreciate you.
Of course a card would do it — but that’ll probably just get
thrown out in a couple days.

So here’s what I came up with…

It’s a THANK YOU GIFT that will significantly
increase your profits and bottom line.

I made arrangements with the #1 Marketing Expert in the world,
Dan Kennedy, to give you THE MOST INCREDIBLE ‘FREE’ GIFT EVER
which includes 2- FREE Months of Dan’s ‘ELITE’ Gold Membership
(Including The World’s Best Marketing Newsletter on The
Planet…The ‘No B.S. Marketing Letter’).

If you want to see how I honestly feel about Dan Kennedy
and how much he’s changed my life, just “google”

“dan kennedy + willie crawford” and you’ll read how I’ve been
raving about him for YEARS!

Now…you’ve just got to find out about everything that’s included
in with this $613.31 gift by clicking onto the link below:

If you haven’t heard of Dan Kennedy let me give you the
quick run-down. As a marketing consultant he has worked hands-on
with clients in 136 different product, service, and business
categories.

In the information-publishing field, he has literally
guided hundreds of startups to multi-million dollar
annual sales. (In fact, studying Dan’s material has been largely
responsible for my success.)

He routinely commands fees of $19,000.00 per
day for private consulting, $45,000.00 to as much as
$75,000.00 plus royalties to write an ad campaign, series
of sales letters or other marketing materials, with over
80% of all clients who utilize his services once opting to
do so repeatedly. Many of these client relationships are
now 5, 7, 10, even 15 years in duration.

So don’t take this deal lightly…Greg Renker, CEO of the
Guthy-Renker Corporation, famous for its TV infomercials
featuring Tony Robbins, Victoria Principal and other
celebrities, says: “I anxiously wait for the No B.S.
Marketing Letter. Each Issue is packed with new information and
terrific insights that are invaluable to our business.”

Frankly the No BS Marketing Letter alone is like a day-long,
intense seminar in print arriving every month in your mailbox.

I promise once you start reading this newsletter you’ll be
hooked. Simply put, that’s the whole reason he’ll let me make
this sensational offer.

But, there is one catch. Dan will not keep this deal open
forever. After he’s reached his limit – this deal is history.
So, please don’t delay. I strongly urge you to check out your
special thank you gift below:

http://www.freegiftfrom.com/williecrawford

Sincerely,
Willie Crawford - A Dan Kennedy Fanatic :-)
PS: One FREE look is worth a thousand words of
advertising. Dan’s “NO B.S. Marketing Letter” truly speaks
for itself - powerfully. But you be the judge and see if
I’m right! Like I said don’t take this FREE gift lightly.
Just head over here to see what you’re getting.

PPS: I suppose I should point out….just ONE really good idea,
strategy, improvement, or kick in the butt you get from all of
this can easily provide a HUGE amount of added income in your
business.

The Beach - 5 Minutes From My House In Navarre Florida

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

I live in a very beautiful part of Florida, and love the
area. From time to time, I have to remind myself of just
how beautiful it is. Like most residents, I take much
of the natural beauty and climate for granted.

Here’s a webcam shot of the beach about 5 minutes from
my house in beautiful Navarre, Florida.

http://www.destinpasslive.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=40

This is one of my favorite places to sit and work on my
websites actually. There’s an area with a few picnic
tables just off camera :-)

DT Alpha Beta Testing - Next Phase, January 4th, 2008

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Unless there is a BIG change of plans, beta testing of
DT Alpha will open up to another 2500 testers on Friday,
January 4th, 2008.

The slots for testers are expected to go FAST, especially
given the $5000 value bonus that will be GIVEN to the
testers.

I have had about 300 people ask me to let them know when
the testing opens up. Since that will be hard to do
before all of the slots are gone, I encourage you to
keep track of things on the blog monitored by testers:
http://www.dtalpha.com/talkback/

Feel free to join the discussion there.

There’s also been a lot of discussion on what will be
different… what new tools and tactics we’ll see in
2008.

I personally think that DT Alpha demonstrates one of
the trends that you’ll see. Basically, you’ll see more
strategic alliances in online marketing efforts…
something that I’ve actually been espousing for nearly
two years.

If you look at DT Alpha, you’ll see a number of pretty
savvy marketers have joined the project in one way or
another to include: Stephen Pierce, Tony Robbins, Jay
Abraham, Mike Filsaime, Joe Polish, Yanik Silver,Russell
Brunson, T. Harv Ecker, Ewen Chia, Patrick Chan, John
Childer, John Carlton, Jim Britt, Dave La
and Chet Holmes… to name a few. My name is in there
somewhere too.

My blog at: http://dtalpha.com/williecrawfordpublic/
also gives you a sneak peak at the synergy from something
like this.

You do want to be a part of DTAlpha in 2008… especially
since beta testers can get into a free version.

My Secret CRM Software Pre-loaded With 750,000 Leads

Friday, December 28th, 2007

If you follow any of my online postings lately, you’ll know
that my 2008 goals include a 7-figure income. That’s something
that I can’t do selling $20 ebook.

You see, I also run several local portal websites where I sell
advertising to local businesses. Realtors, bankers, insurance
companies, car dealers, travel agencies, restaurants, etc.
budget a LOT for advertising.

Some of these companies LITERALLY spend millions on yellow page,
newspaper, radio, television, billboard, and online advertising.
Since it’s a part of their budget… a part of their business
plan, it’s natural for them to advertise with me… especially
if I convince them that I can deliver quality prospects.

I can do that, and I use techniques that most Internet marketers
use subconsciously… such as risk reversal. That makes that
part of my online business fairly easy.

I do have a few secrets though. One is that I joined several
of the local chambers of commerce. I actually spend time
getting
to know my customers… and letting them get to know me.

Just as I preach “networking” to build you online business, I
also DO IT in the offline world… or where those two worlds
merge :-)
I also have an amazing database, that I thought I’d offer to you
today.

Presenting…

My Secret Customer Relationship Management Software with
750,000 Leads

tracking down and contacting potential advertisers.

When I describe this database, I’m sure that you’ll want
access to it to. This database is:

contact’s title, phone number, address, city, state, zipcode,

4. Over 500,000 listings for real estate companies and agents.

Opt-in Video…now a reality?

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

I hope that you had an incredible Christmas. Mine was quiet,
but the best one of probably the past 10 years :-)
Anyway, I just wanted to take a second to show you something
I’d wanted to share earlier… but didn’t really have full
permission to share until a phone call this morning :-)
We all know the power of videos on our website to draw
attention and make sales.

I’ve been privy to a very cool video application that allows
you to play videos on your site. I’ve actually discussed
this application both over at The Warrior Forum, and inside
The Internet Marketing Inner Circle’s private members-only
forum.

What’s so great about this video application?

Get this…

After the video, an fully-functional “opt-in box” appears
that allows you to build your list.

Heck, you can even stick an order button after the video!

Check it out here: http://VideoOpt-Ins.com

My close friend, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming, the creator of Magic Video
Player, has seen conversion rates increase by 181%

This is a no-brainer.

By the way…
Mike has this priced at less than $20 but says it’s just
because he’s in a festive mood. That price WILL change after
the holidays. Get it now ;-) http://VideoOpt-Ins.com

How To Get Much More Of Your Email DELIVERED :-)

Sunday, December 23rd, 2007

About 2 months ago, I commented to members of The Internet
Marketing Inner Circle
, on our member-only forum, that the
BIGGEST problem that we need to tackle next is…

Email Deliverability.

After all, what good does it do to build a list in the
hundreds of thousands… which is where my database is,
if much of the email in NOT getting through.

This is a problem that I’ve also discussed with a number
of “gurus.” I even suggested to one friend that he
create a course on the topic. He frequently speaks on how
to dramatically increase your email deliverability at
conferences. He explained that many people don’t seem
to recognize what a problem it is, and wouldn’t pay
what he’d want for his information.

My friends have ALL noticed the response rates to their
newsletters drop off. A few have even stopped publishing
because it seemed so futile.

Many friends who grew so frustrated that they started
just publishing their newsletters on their blogs -
they obviously feel the pain!

We’ll, I just finished reading an ebook that explains
EXACTLY how to get MUCH more of your email through.

This ebook focuses on how the server is set up…
DNS settings, SPF etc. The author does a masterful
job of clearing up one of email marketing greatest
mysteries…

how to get more email delivered to ISPs which are
notorious for heavy filtering…

Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL etc.

If you’re an email marketer who’s not ready to just
hang it up, I urge you to grab a copy of this report.
Amazingly, it’s only $7, and sold in the “$7 Secrets”
fashion… as in you can turn around and sell copies
for 100% commission after you purchase a copy.
That’s explained on the website.

Grab your copy now, and start getting results with
your email marketing again. Get it at:

UAMI Founder Jorge Arguello

Internet Entrepreneur, Jorge Arguello, talks about
discovering (or how to discover) your highest purpose
and turning that passion into reality in the
non-profit world.

Jorge started out in the “Internet marketing niche”
and discover that this was not what he was meant to
do. Now he uses the Internet to help build his
organization. His new organization is on a mission to
lower teen suicides, violence and depression using the
language of art and to one day eliminate the need for
some to pick up a weapon of mass destruction and
becoming “famous” by destroying young lives, their own
lives and that of the families left behind.

After meeting challenges and many triumphs along the
way Jorge discovered there was a “higher purpose”
within him and through a series of life-changing meetings,
events and deep soul searching, founded his newest and
biggest project to date, the United Arts Movement
International, a non profit organization helping youth
ages 12 to 21 discover the art of managing their emotions
and expressing them in a positive way through his program,
Artistic Creative Expression.
