This week's issue contains a LOT of things for you to do.
Every one of them really can help grow your business. The
best way to make sure that you don't miss anything is to
just go down the list and that's what I suggest you do. Just
go from 1 to 8.
1) I am a member of the International Council Of Online
Professionals (I-cop). We publish a quarterly directory
of members (in PDF). These are people who have agreed
to abide by I-cops very high business and ethical standards.
When you're considering who to do business with online,
consulting the directory is a great place to start. Download
a fr ee copy now from: http://www.i-cop.org/iCop-Desktop.zip
2) Secondly, you need to download a fr ee ebook of the
best articles ever written by some of the top internet
marketers. It's a great ebook and takes only a second
to grab from: http://www.mymarketingtactics.com/bestarticles
3) The third freebie for you to check out is a neat piece of
software set up to make my recipe website go viral. The
software is downloaded to your hard drive. Then, once
a week, it pops up a recipe of the week. From within the
software, the use can print the recipe, or email it to
others.
My version was set up with recipes because I wanted to
promote my cooking website. I could have just as easily
had a copy set up with say a marketing tip of the week or
an article of the week. Check out this powerful viral tool at:
http://www.reachoutdirectory.com/listing.php?Version=UMT0013
The basic idea of this software is to provide a weekly
reminder, 52 times a year, that they need to go back and
visit your website. At the same time, since the software is
on your visitors' or subscribers' computers, you are not reliant
upon email to deliver that reminder!
4) In recent issues I have shared with you the fact that many
of the top marketers built their list into the hundreds of
thousands
... millions for one marketer ... by using opt-in co-registration
leads. Based upon questions I'm getting, I think there is still
some confusion on the issue. If you'd like to better understand
how to use co-registration lists to really build your business,
check out Edward Thorpe's great, no-fluff ebook "Co-reg
Secrets" at:
http://www.profitautomation.com/app/adtrack.asp?AdID=69919
5) I also told you in previous issues where to get some great,
proven co-registration names. However, many of you can't afford
to get 25,000 to 100,000 names at a time... even at a penny
each. I have a friend, Gary Baker, who has a service which
generates the same quality of opt-in leads, AND he offers them
in small quantities. I did purchase a test batch of his leads,
and do highly recommend them! Check them out at:
http://tinyurl.com/3ysph
6) Many of us are what I will call "reprint rights junkies" for
lack of a better term. We love to grab every set of reprint rights
we can but then never do anything with them. My friend Ewen
Chia just released an ebook that TEACHES you how to profit
from all of those reprint rights. Ewen interviewed 19 MASTERS
at using reprint rights and asked them some very tough
questions.
Ewen interviewed people like Allan Wilson, Jo Han Mok and
Ava Almeida for his ebook. Not surprisingly, it's one of the
hottest ebooks around. I recommend that you check it out at:
http://miniebook.com/a.cgi?i=wcrawford&p=2
7) As almost every week, I will continue my weekly networking
and brainstorming calls this Saturday. Last week's call was
INCREDIBLE and this week's call should be too.
The call will be from 11AM - 12:30 Noon Central Standard Time.
It's a great chance to ask questions and just discuss internet
marketing in a small group setting. Great ideas come out of these
calls... and you can even request a fr ee website review. To
register, send a blank email to my autoresponder at:
willie3-56875@autocontactor.com
8) If you missed the top sponsor ad, go back and check it out.
My friend Thea pointed this out to me last November, and it's
generated a ton of traffic to my websites. It works and it won't
cost you anything!
I know I threw a lot at you this week. That's because I spend an
incredible amount of time checking out things EVERY week. I've
probably read 7 new ebooks this week and looked at 3 new pieces
of software. This was on top of setting up the affiliate program
for my upcoming workshop. The affiliate program is all set up and
you should register for it. You earn an easy 40% commission on
a $997 product. That's a cool $398.80 just for telling people about
the most useful internet marketing event being offered this year!

up for my affiliate program). You provide your visitors and
subscribers with some great content AND earn some extra money
while being of genuine service.

If you are in the internet marketing arena and seeking joint
ventures, do yourself a big favor. Take a look at the
websites of many of the top marketers who have created
and jointly marketed products with others. Take a look at 20
or more of these sites.
If you looked at the same sites that I often study, you'll
notice something that seems "strange" at first. You will see
that the same people often endorse each others products
and often produce products together. You'll even see this
will multi-million dollar producers such as Dan Kennedy,
Gary Halbert, and Jay Abraham... to an extent.
Now here's a million dollar secret. These guys really do often
have projects that they've co-produced or joint ventured on. If
this isn't obvious to you, go back and study some more sites.
Better yet, get any of Jay Abraham's tapes and listen to him
explain the benefits of joint ventures.
When you first notice this phenomena it will strike you as
"bogus" or somehow unfair! You'll think, "they only joint venture
with each other." You'll become convinced that they only
endorse or provide testimonials for each other's products. You'll
think that since the "big guys" all do this, then the less
well-know marketers couldn't possibly break into this "club."
Nothing could be farther from the truth! If you go back only
one or two years, you'll see that many of the people now
considered big name were unknowns. You'll see that many of
these people were just newbies only a few years ago.
So how did they break into the big time? What was the secret
that propelled them ahead of the crowd? What was the secret
that gave them access to big name marketers who could help
them grow really fast? In a word - contacts! They were usually
introduced to those who could help them through mentors and
friends.

Another way that many of these "stars" broke out of the crowd was
by finding a way to hang out with those already doing what they
wanted to do. Every success book that I've ever read, by someone
making millions, tells you that you have to learn from someone
already doing it. Those NOT already doing it, can't possibly
teach you something that they don't fully understand. They can
share with you their theories and what they think is the key to
success.
Here's the one question that you need to ask yourself anytime
someone offers to share with you a success secret. This one
question will keep you from making many major mistakes. It will
save you from those who don't have a clue what they're talking
about. That one question is, "Is the person offering me this
great advice achieving any measure of success applying his OWN
advice?"
The title of Harvey MacKay's book, Beware The Naked Man Who
Offers You His Shirt" says it perfectly! That man can't give
you what he doesn't have... and neither can many people you'll
encounter who are all to anxious to offer you advice for your
business.
So how do you meet and hang out with those you want to learn
from? How do you meet and learn from those that you want as
mentors or JV partners? Do it the same way that most of them did
it. Find gatherings where the people you want to learn from
congregate. Attend the meetings, workshops, conferences, and
parties that they attend.
These people work together and endorse each other's products
because they like each other, trust each other, and get to really
know the quality of each other's work. They're willing to take a
look at a new product of a friend, because, that's what friend do!
While at these gatherings, approach the person or people that you
want to learn from and ask questions. Get a feel for if this
person is someone that you want as a mentor. Look them in the
eye and communicate with them. Get a feel for if this is someone
that you REALLY do want to set up a large joint venture with. If
you get the right vibes, find a quiet time and make the person an
offer. Explain to them how you can help them and what you want
in return.
If the person you approach isn't a good fit, or can't help you,
ask them to recommend someone who can. It really is THAT
simple. Small JV's are easy to set up, but to set up really
worthwhile JV's... what I call "million dollar joint ventures" you
need
to do this face to face.
...Study the history or bio of any successful person in your niche
who has major joint ventures going, and there's a good chance that
this is exactly what they did.
Now that YOU know the secret, confirmed by all of the evidence,
go out and set up your own million dollar joint ventures.
