If you own and manage a business, let’s take a moment to think about what you would want in terms of business advice and training - because I think it has been created as the League of Extraordinary Minds.

Lots of top experts - check

Focusing on key issues - check

The advice being turned into actionable steps - check

The advice is free - check

How did the League of Extraordinary Minds do?

The League of Extraordinary Minds is the new venture being launched by marketing genius Jay Abraham and Internet star Rich Schefren.

John Carlton Copywriting Coaching

March 31st, 2009

Top copywriter John Carlton is re-opening his copywriting coaching program called the Simple Writing System.

John has managed to bring in many of the other top copywriting coaches into his program so that everyone who joins has individual attention with John floating around between the different groups.

This is a special program so if you have bought standalone courses and whilst they have improved your copywriting abilities, you haven’t seen the big leap forward you hoped for, then try working with a copywriting coach.

Copy is still very important.

Even if you promote with videos you still need to write the script so that it presses the right emotional buttons and then has a compelling call to action.

The Simple Writing System was be around for very long but John Carlton is loading up the launch with goodies to demonstrate the effectiveness of what he teaches.

Take this chance to look at the Simple Writing System, sign up and see how many of the biggest names in Internet marketing use copywriting to power their success.

You will learn a lot about copywriting by following this launch.

Over on my Online Profits blog I have a much longer blog which tracks the launch of the Simple Writing System from October 2008 and has some videos of John Carlton briefly explaining some of the steps in the Simple Writing System.

iLearning Global - Learn From The Experts

February 3rd, 2009

For years I have wanted someone to bring the best experts in the world together and create a one stop training platform where you know you can access top quality information. And that is exactly what has happened with iLearning Global.tv

What Is iLearning Global?

iLearning Global is destined to become the business development and personal development training portal and it is no surprise that it is being described as “the future of online learning”.

Top experts - Brian Tracy, Jay Abraham, Chet Holmes, Harv Eker, Mark Victor Hansen, Bill Bartmann plus many more give you the benefit of their experience - successes and failures.

But it also covers personal issues from motivational speakers - so you can get a pep talk every day -  and even includes relationship advice from John Gray, author of the best selling book “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus”.

And as iLearning Global becomes better established - it is being launched in Los Vegas in March 2009, even more experts will be added.

So the iLearning Global portal is at www.ilearningglobal.tv where you can see more details of the faculty and the three types of training resources - videos, audios and pdf reports.

But you can’t buy a membership of iLearning Global there.

iLearning Global Commercial Website

To buy iLearning Global, you have to buy through a sponsor and go to another iLearning Global website.

Go to that website and you will see some excellent videos from Brian Tracy and Bill Bartmann explaining the iLearning Global idea.

I think it is very exciting and is just what business has needed.

iLearning Global Is Also A Passive Income Opportunity

When you decide to join iLearning Global, you are given the choice of two options:

  1. Join as a customer and gain access to all the excellent training materials.
  2. Join as a marketer, gain access to all the training and have the option to earn income from selling iLearning Global - and the difference is just $20 per year.

iLearning Global has been built on network marketing principles so you gain by recommending iLearning Global to other people, but you gain much more when the levels underneath start selling iLearning Global.

I Am Suspicious Of Network Marketing

In my mind, network marketing or multi-level marketing has a very bad image of people trying to sell stuff to their friends that has dubious merits.

When Brian Tracy invited me to look at iLearning Global, the network marketing aspect caused me to hold back for two weeks.

But the quality of the basic iLearning Global offering won me over despite the MLM stigma.

iLearning Global Is What Small Businesses Need

On the Internet membership sites are becoming increasing popular for two reasons:

  1. It is easy money for the marketer - one sale with multiple pay days.
  2. Customers are overwhelmed with information and offers of the next big money making idea and want to work with the ideas of people they trust.

Who has got time for all the stuff that is now produced - no wonder it is called the Information Age?

But none of us can afford to stop learning.

The rate of change is so high that new ideas come along and make whatever was state of the art a few years ago, now old hat.

And that is the power of iLearning Global - a chance to learn from some of the best and most successful authors, trainers and speakers in the world.

Marketing And Selling Of iLearning Global

It is very much in iLearning Global’s best interests to help you to promote iLearning Global and to sell memberships.

So they will be providing support for iLG marketers, and who will it come from - the faculty of iLearning Global - so you will receive training on how to promote it from some of the best marketing and sales trainers in the world.

How Much Can You Earn From iLearning Global?

For most small businesses, I see the income opportunities of iLearning Global as a nice add-on.

If you create a shallow, small network, you may get enough income to help offset the cost of iLearning Global.

In itself that is a nice advantage - great training which you get at a discount or maybe even free if your network develops.

But some people will be able to earn a lot of money from iLearning Global if it takes off in the small business world, the way I expect it to.

These people will either:

  1. Work hard at promoting iLearning Global to many people and also help their network spread the word.
  2. Work smart by introducing it to a few people who already have a large network of people who are likely to be interested in top quality business development and personal growth training.

The choice is yours.

Paul Lemberg FormulaFIVE

January 6th, 2009

Top US business coach and consultant Paul Lemberg (founder and chairman of Quantum Business Coaching which has changed its name to Axcelus) has teamed up with Internet Marketing training company StomperNet to bring you FormulaFIVE.

FormulaFIVE

FormulaFIVE brings you the profit-making, business-building system which Paul Lemberg has used to help his clients increase profits by over $300 million in the last fifteen years.

It is based around five modules, and if you improve each area by 15% then you effectively double your gross profits  and send your net profit through the roof provided you don’t indulge in little luxuries like a Ferrari as a company car.

These five modules are:

  1. Margin magnifier - helps you to increase your margins by increasing the value customers receive which allows you to increase your selling prices
  2. Sales stackers - which helps you to increase your sales to existing customers - there is usually huge potential in this area
  3. Lead landslide - add more lead generation techniques to attract more prospective customers and make your business much safer
  4. Conversion control - means you boost the proportion of leads you convert into paying customers
  5. Turbo booster - how you can increase the overall productivity for yourself and your staff

I have been lucky enough to have a review copy and I am writing a very long review on my Online Profits blog - see FormulaFIVE review.

FormulaFIVE is being promoted using the proven technique of letting you experience the quality for yourself through a series of videos. It starts with a 32 minute video from CEO of StomperNet Andy Jenkins and a 73 minute, content rich video from Paul Lemberg.

You gain access to these videos at FormulaFIVE and you can learn more about these videos on my main Business Coaching blog if you click on the link below

I don’t think you should miss the chance to at least see this free information if you are a business owner or have profit responsibility for a business with annual sales between $80,000 and $42 million.

In these recessionary times I am convinced that searching for and exploiting hidden profit opportunities is the key to surviving and prospering.

When the economy is benign, it is less important to squeeze every last drop of potential out of what you already have because it is easy to attract new customers.

But at the moment the story is very different and you need to learn how to focus on your existing customers, increase their satisfaction and benefits and discover ways that they will want to buy more.

Arbitrage Conspiracy - Amazing Buzz

December 7th, 2008

I have just read over 162k visitors to the Arbitrage Conspiracy website in four days.

What has caused such action in the world of Internet marketing?

The revelation that people can make $50,000 to $100,000 profit per day by using PPC arbitrage in the CPA networks.

I was lucky enough to be considered one of the top Internet marketers to be invited to the secret closed door event in Las Vegas.

I didn’t go and I regret it.

But I have been watching this launch with amazing interest. Details are revealed in the Arbitrage Conspiracy report which is available for free and, if you tell three friends, you also get to see an extra video.

It you could take a look at my Online Profits blog where I have been receiving a lot of traffic and some great comments - see Arbitrage Conspiracy.

Talk of $50,000 profit a day are almost unbelievable but a host of top name Internet marketers are lining up behind the Arbitrage Conspiracy and it was brought to me by Brad Fallon of StomperNet.

It is all leading up to a twelve week coaching program.

Should you buy?

I don’t know but I do think that you owe it to yourself to find out more about this money making opportunity.

Will you make $50,000 per day?

It’s extremely unlikely since you would need total commitment to the activity and to know exactly what you should be doing. There is also the problem that as more people play the game, the arbitrage opportunities will reduce.

But could you make $100 a day and is that worth having? Could it possibly be $500 a day which could possibly change your life?

You won’t know unless you start by reading the Arbitrage Conspiracy to decide if this is an opportunity which appeals.

Nitro Blueprint System 2009

October 8th, 2008

Several days ago I heard that Nitro Marketing are upgrading their flagship product, the Nitro Blueprint System to a 2009 version.

The Nitro Blueprint System is one of my favourite Internet marketing products since it is extremely comprehensive but at the same time realistic.

Kevin and Matt at Nitro Marketing lay it on the line.

You can be successful and build an Internet business that makes good profits provided:

  1. You know the Internet marketing success formula - the Nitro Blueprint System communicates  this very well.
  2. You work hard. Sorry there is no magic pill that will send hundreds of thousands of buyers eager to pay whatever you charge. You must pick the right market, have a great product, market it well and work on the traffic generation tactics or be prepared for the costs of a big pay per click campaign.

I will be tracking the launch of the Nitro Blueprint System 2009 on my Online Profits blog and the first posting is at Nitro Blueprint System 2009 which shows that Nitro Marketing is a highly reputable and responsible company.

Small Business Growth Club Bad News Good News

October 2nd, 2008

I have raved about Scott Hallman’s on this blog before - see Small Business Growth Club Review - and regard it an amazing resource which was available at an incredible price.

The bad news is that Scott Hallman has decided to put the price up - not by 5 or 10% but potentially by a massive 900% on the platimum membership which is expected to jump from $39 to $397.

The full story is told on my main Business Coaching blog - see Small Business Growth Club

There are three elements of good news but one of these requires you to act very quickly:

  1. The price increases from October 6th 2008 so you can secure your membership at the old price and Scott is promising to maintain this for existing members.
  2. Scott Hallman has committed to improving the Small Business Growth Club by holding regular calls which will be great and he is intending to bring in more resources from his guru friends.
  3. Even after this massive price increase I remain convinced that a one year membership of the Small Business Growth Club is great value when you compare the cost to the benefits you will gain by implementing the ideas.

The big difference about Scott Hallman and the Small Business Growth Club is the focus on implementation.

This isn’t pie in the sky learning and business information as intellectual entertainment.

Scott Hallman gives you the step by step guide to implementing upsells and cross-sells,conditioning your customers to buy more, creating active referrals programs, forming strategic endorsement partnerships and so much more.

I am so committed to the Small Business Growth Club that I even include a recommendation in my email signature!

The website is a mess and will be improved. It is better now that Scott has added audios to guide you through what is available and he tells me that videos should follow soon.

Don’t let that put you off.

You have a small time window to take action at the old “incredible bargain” prices.

Small Business Growth Club

Scott Hallman Small Business Growth Club

June 9th, 2008

If you are a regular reader you may have noticed that under recommended products, there is the Small Business Growth Club which features Scott Hallman’s business development and growth training.

This is the first of a series of articles in which I will explain just why I recommend the Small Business Growth Club but first let me tell you a little bit about Scott Hallman.

Who Is Scott Hallman?

Scott Hallman is recognised as a leading small business coach and marketing expert, responsible for helping his clients add millions of dollars in annual new profits streams through his business coaching firm Business Growth Dynamics.

Scott has built a reputation as “The Master of Implementation” because he recognises that profits only come through action and this is the big weakness in much of the business training available. It is nice to listen to, intellectually stimulating but often difficult to apply when you get back into your business.

Scott’s companies have twice been named to the prestigious Inc. Magazine’s “Inc. 500″ list of the fastest-growing privately held companies in America (#59 and #106).

Since then he has conducted seminars with leading business growth trainers, Jay Abraham, Chet Holmes, Jay Conrad Levinson, Joe Vitale and shared the stage with, Fran Tarkenton, Brian Tracy, Mike Basch (FedEx Co-founder), and Mark Victor-Hansen.

here are a few tributes to Scott Hallman:

“Scott Hallman is the undisputed master of implementation. I highly recommend his system, if you want to turn great ideas into great profits”. (Jay Abraham)

“Savvy companies know when it is time to focus on time-tested, proven results-based, low risk marketing/sales methods…and nobody is better at implementing these strategies than Scott Hallman.” (Chet Holmes)

“Scott I’ve written 31 books and you have made me feel like a failure because I have not addressed the simply, duplicatable profit strategies that you teach.” (Jay Conrad Levinson)

Private Clients Of Scott Hallman

You could become a personal client of Scott but his success has allowed him to a) raise his fees to a high level and b) become very particular about the opportunities he works with.

But he has done the next best think with the Small Business Growth Club

Small Business Growth Club

This is a membership site which contains many of Scott’s ideas for business development and growth with audio training sessions, downloadable transcripts and workbooks.

You can see the Small Business Growth Club website but before you rush off, I’d like to tell you a little about it.

At the heart of the Small Business Growth Club are a series of 99% standalone modules and instead of just listing them in order, Scott has put them into work streams so a key module will occur in a number of different work streams which take you progressively through a business development course.

The Three Main Work Streams In The Small Business Growth Club

Scott has identified three main work streams through the material

  1. Generate New Business - this is designed to turn your business into a systematic marketing machine and produce a continuous stream of new customers.
  2. Implement / Manage - this work stream teaches you to implement new systems and procedures, overcome barriers to change and improve the control over your business.
  3. Optimise Profits - this works stream contains a series of modules mainly aimed around increasing the profit you make from your existing customers.

It is the last of these three work streams, Optimise Profits which I will be reviewing first.

I believe that many businesses are sitting on a fortune of hidden opportunities and assets, just waiting for someone to turn into profit.

Scott’s structured training program and the emphasis of identifying the individual action steps required to implement the profit building techniques in your business represent exceptional value in my mind.

I will be looking at the Small Business Growth Club in much more detail but if you are a person who will take action, then I don’t know anywhere else you will get such a high return on your investment.

Do yourself a favour and sign up to join the Small Business Growth Club
