1. Creative partnerships and Newbies finally embraced at ClickBank!

Clickbank.com is my favorite tool for managing the sales, delivery, support and affiliate payment process for ebooks and other digital goods (memberships, software, downloads of any kind etc).

They regularly sell over $1million worth of products per day I've heard.

They have been automating the entire process for thousands of "info product" sellers for over a decade, but they've just added a new feature a few days ago that is the BEST improvement they've made in years (in my opinion).

Maybe their best update ever. (I begged them for YEARS to do this along with others in the biz).

I'll be writing more about this in the near future, but here's a short video I posted on youtube with my take on the big announcement they just made a few days ago at clickbank.

This changes the game for newbies, and speeds up the process of partnering and collaborating on projects. Don't worry if this isn't immediately clear to you - I'll be educating you more soon on this.

Let me know what questions you have - leave a comment or question on youtube.

2. You, a master marketer?

Would you like to MASTER the art of getting ANY message out to those that most want it and need it?

CAUTION: Your instincts are probably WAY OFF. What worked very well even five years ago barely works at all now. There is a clear trend away from trying to "appeal to the masses" in marketing.

If you are like I was, your instincts are way off when it comes to marketing a business, message, product, cause or service, but it's not our fault - we were all taught the wrong stuff.

Even today, watching TV or reading a magazine gives us the wrong impression of "what works" in marketing. Most of the ads you see and hear are losers for the advertisers today.

When I was in college I hated marketing and advertising classes. Marketing was presented as a slick way of trying to push products on "the masses" knowing that a .01% response rate was a huge "success". It was expensive, intrusive and only those with big budgets were in the game of marketing and advertising.

YUCK!

The game has changed from even just five years ago and the odds are now clearly in OUR favor (the little guys).

Effective marketing is now clearly about relationships, earned influence, trust, building like minded communities, great free content, loyal fans and partners...and it's freely available to any and all of us.

Re-read that last sentence - those aren't the words we used to use when talking about selling things are they? Ignore this simple message at your own peril though.

I've sold millions of dollars of products and services from a little home office, and have taught thousands of others to do the same because I "get it". Here's my guide revealing how I've done it and how you can master marketing any message, cause, business, product or service as well:

Is Google really dying?

Probably not, but they are changing for sure and here's how you can benefit NOW from the pending changes I see clearly coming our way. Early birds get the worm on this mega-trend if I'm right.
