I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again… most Internet Marketers are full of sh!t. Everything that comes out of their mouths should be verified… seriously.

Reed Floren sent out an email today talking about Mike Filsaime (the guy I’ve already blasted over a year ago). In his email he stated the following:

I’m sure you know who Mike Filsaime is. If you don’t,

you’ve obviously been out of town for an extended period

of time.

Mike is the undisputed King of viral marketing and has

been for the past several years. But I believe he just

started his own de-throning!

Interesting!

I guess Microsoft should have hired Mr. Filsaime to help them with Hotmail, the creators of YouTube.com could have done the same. Let’s not mention MySpace, Google, Yahoo, etc…

Heck, maybe Henry Ford could have used Mr. Filsaime to help him introduce people to the automobile.

Ahhh… the world could have used Mike Filsaime in so many ways. Imagine if they could have used his expertise that he used for…wait for it…

Butterfly Marketing!

Yeah. Just imagine.

I like Russell Brunson, but hey - even he is full of sh!t.

I got an email from him today (same day as Reed Floren’s), and the subject line said:

the only marketer i’ve ever hired

Now, we know Subject lines are supposed to reel you in… but, you’re supposed to be ON TARGET with the rest of your story, right?

He explains:

Yes, I paid him $1,000 for a 1 hour phone call.

That one hour call resulted in over $50,000 in revenue within 7
days, and is now responsible for almost $100k a WEEK (yes, a week)
consistently in revenues…

OK, so he’s claiming that recently (today is April 15th, 2008) that he hired this guy for a 1 hour phone call… the “only marketer he’s ever hired”.

Yet, when he launched the 12 Month Millionaire, he claimed to hire Mr. Vince James for the same thing?

Anyone remember that?

Oh well, I just got a little laugh when I read both of those emails today… pretty hilarious and contradicting! Not to mention just plain ridiculous (Reed Floren).

I just found out that my best friends Mother passed away this past weekend. Having lived with her for years, I can say that she was a very straight forward, no BS’ing, in your face personality… but she was one of the kindest souls I’ve ever met in my life.

I didn’t get the chance to talk to her in 2008… I found out she had cancer (in the kidney) in December, 2007, and I only spoke to her briefly. She was very positive (as she always seemed to be over the past 8 years) and seemed to be staying strong for her family and friends who were obviously scared.

Her Daughter, Lynette, got married in the Hospital and even had news coverage ( as seen here )… I’m sure she was happy to witness that.

Her youngest Daughter, Alicia (my best friend), has overcome a major drug addiction that led her to incarceration on a few occasions. Unfortunately, I’m worried that things might spiral out of control soon - as she loved her mother very much… they were extremely close.

With all of the Airline cancellations at DFW Airport, I’m thinking I won’t be able to make it to her funeral in California… I guess we’ll see how it goes.

We’ll definitely miss her. Rest In Peace, Jeanette! I love you!

I purchased Site Sniper Pro last week and have been testing it out… so far, I like it a lot for doing Placement Targeting campaign research, but I’m not recommending it just yet. I don’t want to recommend anymore products that I’m not 110% sure of.

I’ll give it another week and try to do a review of the program if I can remember to…

I apologize to all my readers out there… please see my post regarding 4 weeks of not smoking and that should explain my lack of posts on this blog over the past month.

So, today is officially the first full month of not smoking. Feels great knowing that I’m on my way to another year of not smoking, but I hope this is “it”, once and for all!

Since I quit smoking, I decided it was time to start getting back into shape. I miss being in good shape… I started getting there before the end of last summer, but then I stopped for stupid reasons, including picking up smoking.

My eating habits became crappy, started drinking, stopped working out.

Now, I’m eating extremely healthy lately, with 1-3 “cheat” meals a month… depending on how I feel about my progress. I’m doing cardio every day, lifting every other day and trying my best to keep sane.

Unfortunately, I’ve become mentally drained over the past month… I put all of my energy into my morning workouts (yes, I drink a recovery drink), focus on working on my campaigns over the next few hours but it seems like things just are not getting done…

Lately, I’ve HAD to start taking afternoon naps. Lucky me…yeah, yeah. I honestly wish I didn’t have to.

When I was smoking, I didn’t have to worry about crashing midway through the day… not to mention the fact that I was amped up on Soda/Coca-Cola all day (sorry, didn’t want to use the word “coke” and give anyone the wrong impression ;-)).

I’m pushing forward, though. My goal is to get into the best shape of my life before my next Birthday, which is on July 1st. Should be hard… but, I’m going to make it happen. I’m 2 weeks into Precision nutrition and cardio, and 1 week into Weight Training, so that makes it a total of 3 months.

Unfortunately, it’s killing my work time by not having as much energy.

Stupid cigarettes…

OK, thanks to the advice of guys like Ruck, I’ve decided that I’m going to jump into CPA Marketing pretty hard over the next few months.

I believe I’ll be spending at least $1,000 on ppc, which might not be very much to some - and a whole lot to others… well, I’m sticking with that number because I feel safe and confident with that amount right now.

So far, I’m really liking Copeac and AdValiant, although CPA-Empire and MaxBounty might get more use later down the road.

I know I’ve always told you (along with every one else who teaches Affiliate Marketing basics) that you should always make sure to get to know your Affiliate Manager. Well, luckily for me, my Affiliate Manager for Copeac is one of the coolest guys I’ve met online over the past few years. He’s been very quick with replies, very thorough and just an all around great guy (Thanks, Stephen!).

So, I’ll be trying out a lot of the programs they’re running first…

Am I nervous? You betcha! If there’s one thing I don’t want to lose - it’s my hard earned money!

But, that’s why I will be testing with small amounts at first and then scaling the campaigns that seem to be possible winners.

NeverBlueAds is another good looking program, although I haven’t had much success with any campaigns over there just yet… not that I’ve been very active, either ;-)  (but I’ve been running a few tests)

I was going to try ClickBooth, but I keep hearing negative remarks about the company. I will check them out later down the road, possibly.

I will keep you updated on my findings over the next few weeks. I’ve been testing a few programs through Placement Targeting with very little luck, although I’ve had a little success with Placement Targeting and other Affiliate Programs (non-cpa).

This year was the first year that I’ve never pulled an April Fools prank on somebody. I’m pretty sure it’s the first time ever since I was about 8 years old…

I was wondering why today was so boring. I still have a few hours left… maybe I’ll think of someone to fool before the night is over?

What did you do to someone today? =)

I’ve been getting really unorganized over the past few weeks and it’s becoming a major problem for me…

Thankfully, I’ve successfully quit smoking, again, and I’ve started back on Precision nutrition, working out like crazy and now it’s time to get back on track with work… since all of the good things above have seemed to destroy my old daily routine =)

To be honest, I rarely followed my daily routines I had written on paper and posted on my Cork board, anyway… (and my dry erase board and my computer, phone, etc…)

So, now I have a HUGE sign that says the following:

“PER DAY”

3 ARTICLES

1 BLOG POST

5 ppc CAMPAIGNS

2 PLACEMENT CAMPAIGNS

and more… some of you may be confused with ppc and Placement … yes, Placement Targeting is PPC - but it’s “different” in my opinion as 99% of PPC’ers tend to run Keyword Targeting only.

Obviously, I have other stuff on this list - but those are my MAIN goals. They will be different in about a month, but for now they’re perfectly fine and will help me get back on track.

What are your daily goals?
