Well… the “Marketing With Alex 3.0” seminars were held on the 25th & 26th January 2010. And I have just gotten home after what seems like days on planes to get there and back. In fact, it WAS days from where I live in Perth, Western Australia! Was it just May and June 2009 that we were there last time? Gee – how time FLIES (a little pun – doesn’t matter).

Incidentally, I didn’t take my laptop overseas this time because of all the security issues with taking it in and out of the case and through those damn security scanners. That was both good and bad. Good that it saved me a bunch of time – bad in that I just looked and I have 3,172 unread emails in just 1 week! Heh… heh… but I do have a whole bunch of ones that say: “Notification of Payment Received.” NICE!

Back to the topic of my discussion… the Alex Jeffreys Internet Marketing seminars in Las Vegas…

Now, from memory, I think it was 26 people who attended the Marketing With Alex 2.0 seminars last time. Those “saddling up” a second time were Alex Jeffreys (of course), my good mate Garry Parkes (of course), me (of course – DUH!), Dean “Tatts” Holland, Dan “the Mothman” Briffa, Adam Spiel, Ross Carrell, Rob Brookes, JT Martin and Jit Uppal. Mike Ottman was supposed to be with us all a second time also but, unfortunately, due to family reasons was a last minute withdrawal.

Well we're 23 days into the new year and things are progressing nicely. I have put some plans into motion and am moving towards some of those goals that I mentioned in my last post. That is, with the exception of making a weekly blog post. LOL

But that's OK. I am about to make up for that over the next few days. I am sitting in the West Palm Beach airport about to get on a plane for Atlanta and then on to Las Vegas. I am going to Alex Jeffreys second workshop and looking forward to meeting his new group of students.

Opps, looks like I am going to have to finish this in Atlanta, the plane is boarding.

Well, I didn't get to finish in Atlanta. We (my wife and I) got off the plane and by the time we got to the gate, the plane was boarding. Unfortunately, our bags didn't make the flight on time. So when we arrived in Las Vegas we had to wait until the next flight from Atlanta to get there and hour late.

(You'll have that sometimes. )

Any way, everything went OK after that. We checked in at the Mirage and met up with a bunch of my fellow students who got here early for Mike Filsaime's bash that started Friday. Gary Simpson, Garry Parkes, Dean Holland, Dan Briffa, David Walker, Marcus Passey, and Paul Wilson were among my fellow students sitting at the bar well on there way…

My wife and I checked in then had a few but didn't do much else. We had been up since 3am EST and with the 3 hour time change were feeling a little tired. We did get up for a bit and prowled the casino for a couple hours but turned in early.

Well who would have believed it; My blog is now just over one year old.

During the incredible roller coaster journey over the last year I have written 75 posts and received virtually exactly 3,500 comments! And before that date I had never written a blog let alone understood how to install and manage one so it has been a big learning curve but an enjoyable one.

When I look at those figures I think - WOW! I did that; of course with a lot of help and encouragement along the way from my many visitors (and many new friends) who I am very grateful to Now I do feel a tad guilty because in recent months I have neglected to find the time to post which has been a big mistake because the reason for my “success” has been entirely down to my personal blog which I started when I enrolled on the Alex Jeffreys’ Internet Marketing Course a year ago. 

Yes, just a year ago I started out as a student of Alex Jeffreys and now the tables have really turned around. As many of my regular visitors know, over the past 6 months or so ,I have been working with Alex as his Operation’s Manager (right-hand man, side kick, gofer … or whatever else you want to call me!). And the only reason that came about was fully embracing the coaching course and putting into practice in a massive way what we as students were taught. Well it worked, and it has ended up with me doing what I am doing now.

Alex Jeffreys coaching program has re-opened! My friend and mentor, Alex Jeffreys is taking on a very limited number of new students. To sweeten the deal, he is going to give the first 100 students a substantial discount.

If your in a hurry, than click on the link and Watch The Whole Video.

Alex is offering the exact same, life changing,  training that I received a year almost a year ago. By following his lead, I have established myself in the Internet marketing community and have a self sustaining, profitable online business.

Even though I have done better than most, (95% of people who try to make money online fail), I still feel that my success has been limited. This is because I work a full time job and have a family.

I am only able to commit about 5-10 hours a week to my online business. I want to be a full time marketer but I need to be able to replace a 6 figure a year income before I can walk away from my job.

I am not quite there, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My online income continues to grow every month and becomes more consistent as I bring in money from various continuity programs. I have some things in the works that are really going to accelerate my progress.

Maybe I can catch up to some of my fellow students that were also in Alex's coaching program with me. There is a list of people that have actually quit there jobs and gone full time internet marketer.

Hi there,

Well today marks a milestone for this lil ole blog of mine. You see www.motivationselfesteem.com/talk is officially ONE YEAR OLD today! Yep, I started it up on the 27th of November 2008 after signing up to Alex Jeffreys’ Internet Marketing Course.

Since then I have turned this site into a POWERHOUSE of Internet Marketing information – most of which is FREE. Here are just some of the highlights along the way…

1 – Back then I was getting approximately 50 to 75 visitors a day. Today I regularly get 600 to 800 per day and have had many days over 900 and even 1,000. The biggest visitor number was last week at 1,310 visitors for the 24 hour period. That is high traffic!

2 – I went from having ZERO followers on Twitter to having some 27,000 followers now,

3 – My Alexa Ranking has gone from 5,179,210 on the 27th November 2008 right down to being in the top 100,000 websites in the world with a present popularity rank of 92,216 (and still falling like a stone) – and that is a significant achievement to be ranked 92,216th in the WORLD out of about 50,000,000 (50 million) websites!

4 – I have added content almost every week – this has drawn 3,573 comments in the 12 month period.

5 – I have also added many informational e-books to the blog to help people understand the concepts of copywriting, time management, adswapping, list-building, Giveaway events, motivation, inspiration, Twitter AND there are more to come!

Hello,

Well, I hope you have been enjoying my Internet Marketing tips from Las Vegas. This one is about getting yourself a mentor.

Now, I’ve been hinting about the existence of this video (and others) for a while now. You are in for a surprise here – oh yeah! Here I am in the spa at my luxury apartment suite at the Luxor Casino. The luxury Luxor. Oh, watch for what I do at the end… (You know something? … I can hardly believe I do these things myself *sigh* I mean – seriously – I don’t know what possesses me sometimes. Or where these dopey ideas even come from.)

Enough said. Watch it and see for yourself…

If you haven’t watched the other 7 Internet Marketing videos then they are here on my blog. In all of them I manage to say something at least half-decent about Internet marketing. (Maybe this one is half-INdecent – LOL!)

PS: Who else do you know who would have the audacity to do this? Oh yeah, maybe the Gangsta would – Alex Jeffreys.
