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.

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!

Well, here I go again – Internet Marketing Tips #3. This video is a little unusual in that – rather than saying anything about Internet Marketing per se – what I am trying to convey here is a bit of emotion and demonstrate the friendships that can be made with other people by attending these events.

This video was taken out the front of the Luxor Hotel Casino resort in Las Vegas. In the opening you will see Nikki Stephens of www.NikkiStephens.com and Paula Brett of www.Paula-Brett.com having a little cuddle (and a tear or two). Then I get in on the act (along with my usual ribald comments – er sorry about the reference to you-know-who and you-know-what Paula – I didn’t mean it! PMSL).

It was an emotional moment and I felt rather sad when Paula left us. Meeting friends like this is one of the GREAT benefits of attending these events. Paula and Nikki and I are very good friends and the three of us and many of the other attendees at the Internet Marketing seminars have all kept in contact with each other since. It was wonderful meeting these ladies and all the other great folks in Las Vegas.

One of the most confronting things facing most people intending to market goods and services on the Internet is getting the correct mindset - the Internet Marketing Mindset.

There are so many things standing in front of the “newbie” marketer -

• education - what do you need to know?
• basics - what are the first things you need to do?
• technique - how do you do the basics?
• self-belief - do you THINK you can do it?
• information overload - too much information being fired at you all at once

Introducing… my new e-book - 40 pages of FREE information - “The Internet Marketing Mindset - How to Program YOUR ‘Newbie’ Mindset For Internet Marketing Success.”

Once you get over the mental hurdles facing you it will be all systems GO, GO, GO!

Hi,

I’ve just finished reading Alex Jeffreys latest e-book called “Newbies Nightmare - the Advanced Strategies They DON’T Want You to Know!” It’s a short e-book of some 45 pages with a fair few pictures. I managed to read it all in about 15-20 minutes. [You can see a pic of the cover of Newbies Nightmare in the lower LHS column of this page - just scroll down to view.]

Written in an easy-to-read style, the Newbies Nightmare explains why 99% of people trying to make money online FAIL! I gotta admit… the stuff that Alex wrote about hit home with me too.

I signed on for Alex’s first coaching course and many of the pages on this blog are dedicated to what was taught.

If you are considering finding a MENTOR on the Internet to help you with your marketing and selling then I can personally recommend Alex Jeffreys to you. He over-delivered on his first course and I know ABSOLUTELY that with Garry Parkes now taking on the role of Operations Manager that Alex’s new course will be EVEN BETTER!

As I said, troll through this blog and see for yourself the type of information that Alex teaches and the sorts of things that you will learn.

Hello,

I have been thinking - ever since the Alex Jeffreys Internet Marketing coaching course has finished - about the tremendous amount of information that everybody has been exposed to. This has also been obvious on Alex Jeffreys own blog where hundreds of people have been making all sorts of observations and comments in the last couple of days at his invitation for feedback.

Now, I don’t mind saying that I am a pretty well organised individual and I am a very good planner and I am methodical. However…

… I too am struggling to cope with everything.

Some time back I made the comment that people were trying to squeeze three years of activity into three months. Alex saw that comment and mentioned it in one of his webinars.

The BIG obstacle that just about everybody faces is TIME.

How can we get everything that needs to be done… done?

So many people have to work all day, run businesses, attend to home demands, attend to family demands, accede to the requests of our friends etc, etc and yet STILL try to find time to build an internet business. And here is what I think…

… I think we are all getting frustrated that everything is taking so long to do. Let’s see…
