Hi,

Well, my Internet Marketing topic for today may be a little boring for you but…

… this is just SO important. In fact, I have been thinking about it off and on most of the weekend. I wasn’t even gonna write it. Then I thought – yeah, it’s boring to me and it’s obvious to me but then I have been around the block a few times with this Internet Marketing caper. I’ve seen a lot in Internet Marketing stuff in my travels and what may be blatantly obvious to me and even boring may, in fact, be a revelation to others. So, here it is…

BE YOURSELF.

Startling stuff hey? Well read on, I have some ideas and observations to throw at you and maybe a little bit of humor too…

Don’t be a clone of Alex Jeffreys or Mike Filsaime or Stephanie Mulac or Rich Schefren or John Thornhill or Dave Nicholson or Paula Brett or Omar Martin or Rosalind Gardner or Maria Andros or Garry Parkes or Dean Holland or even me for that matter! (heaven help you!)

WHY?

Because YOU are UNIQUE. There is NOBODY exactly the same as you in the entire world! You have unique talents. You have a unique way of expressing yourself. Some people will find you hideously irritating. Some will find you arrogant. Some will find you boring. Some will like you. Some may even find you enchanting. Some might even get so fixated on you that they will stalk you. Yeah, it happens. Social media networking is a real tutti-fruiti haven for cyber-stalkers. But that is a subject I will cover a bit later on. Back to the subject at hand…

Holy jumping Jehosephats!

I have just come off the bonus Webinar interview with Maria Andros, the “Video Marketing Queen” of the Internet. Powerful, powerful stuff.

As usual, thank you Alex Jeffreys for organizing this. My head is still spinning.

I realize, of course, that not everybody is a F500 member and therefore was not privy to this TON of information. Yours truly – me – took 8 pages of notes so I am gonna précis the information on this webinar. Naturally I will do so without going too crazy and without handing over, shall we say, “trade secrets” on offer to the 200 or so of the F500 who, like me, availed themselves of this riveting information.

So, rather than waffle on ad-infinitum, I will just bullet point SOME of this information:

As an intro to her credibility and authority in this SUBJECT Maria Andros said she:

• * made a SIX figure income in her FIRST year of video marketing,
• * has been invited personally by Richard Branson to attend a seminar,
• * has 4,500 “followers” on Twitter,
• * generated, in her FIRST 2 months online (started May 2007), an amount of $12,987,
• * has over 500,000 people watching her videos,
• * over 1,850 subscribers on You-Tube.

OK. Have I got YOUR attention? Good. Coz Maria Andros sure got mine!

Here are just some of the many other pertinent things she said:

• * Video has UNBELIEVABLE reach,
