Rodeo Clowns, RV's & The Lake :)

As I've toured around the country in my RV during
the last few years I've consistently heard people
say the same thing over and over again to me.

It never fails. City to city, state to state, it's always
the same. And it's sort of sad in a way.

I say it's sad because what I've noticed is that there
are so many unfulfilled dreams in many people's
lives.

Not too many people really grab life by the horns
and ride it like a wild rodeo clown who lusts for
adventure and thrills. Instead, they settle for a life
of mediocrity and safety.

And while safety is fine, I believe not pursuing your
dreams is a grave mistake. Now I don't think you
need to be an idiot like a rodeo clown flirting with
death and injury, but at some points in your life you
have to take a chance and just roll the dice.

Whether it's leaving a dead end job you hate to
pursue an internet business that may change your
life, or asking out that hot blonde at the local grocery
store who makes your knees knock every time
you pass through her line while buying some produce,
at some point you just have to DO IT!

But so many people I run into on the road never
do it. They think maybe later. Or, I'm not ready
just yet.

One thing I've learned in life is...

There is no better time than now!

Because you can never count on tomorrow.

So what is it that I  hear in every city, every state
that I travel to?

Take a guess!

I'll let you know tomorrow in a email.

Cheers,

Jason Moffatt


PS: I just left Hollywood. It's time for a new chapter.
If you know me, you know I like to mix it up.

So, I'm chilling on the lake for a bit while I brew up
my next master scheme. I just wrote a random blog
post here...

http://www.jasonmoffatt.com/rv/posted-up-on-the-lake.html


It's basically just me rambling my thoughts on my blog
(which I hope to do a lot more of in the near future).

Peace

Ready-Fire-Aim consulting course starts in 1 hour

Gano,

. . . and here's the setup - a question from a real customer who just signed on:

"I've got a day job. I can commit 1 hour a day before 8am, possibly some time in the afternoons. I've got a marketing budget of $500/month. How do I get clients and make a minimum of $5K a month?"

That's the question I'll answer starting at 2pm CT / 3pm ET in the Ready-Fire-Aim consulting course.

If you want your customers to buy from you... (CRUCIAL)

Hi, Mike,

There's something I want to talk to you about.

It's something that humans are hard-wired
to immediately get hypnotized by.

(Seriously.)

And it's such a shame that more marketers don't
talk about it, because:

- This is the #1 HANDS-DOWN best thing you
can do to stand out from a crowded marketplace,
no matter what your niche...

- This will make people want (badly) to buy from
YOU and only YOU...even if they never met you
before... (the way it breaks past the "trust" barrier
is incredible)

- If you use it, people will almost HAVE to buy from
you...

- It's made many companies millions of dollars
(Disney makes Billions with it)

- No matter what changes - the economy, internet
marketing, whatever.... this will hand-deliver you
UNBREAKABLE relationships with your customers...

- ...and it's a tactic used for centuries that can't
help but work.

Like I said - humans are hard-wired to listen to
you as soon as you use this.

What I'm talking about is the power of a (GOOD!) story.

I'm a personal testament to its power and have
made a VERY good living with my "5 Buck Guy" story.
(All true, of course).

See... when you start telling a good story, people can't
help but listen.

Even if they don't want to, a good story enrolls people.

They start thinking about what they would do if they were
the characters in the story.

How they would feel.

Behave.

Act.

Stories enroll so many emotions. It's why they've been
used to deliver messages since the dawn of mankind
(think the Bible, folklore, myths).

They are VERY, VERY powerful.

And if you can tell a good story in your niche, your customers
will remember you FOREVER. They'll feel closer to you. You'll
be separated from the crowd.

And in a world that is changing constantly, this is the one thing
you can use over and over.

The power of story is CONSTANT.

There are some BIG PROBLEMS with stories though:

1. Most people don't know how to tell a good story. It
takes a LOT of skill. The amount of books and seminars
on this topic is STAGGERING.

2. Most people can't extract their own stories. We become
too close to them and don't realize that "old news" for us
is pay-dirt when told to other people.

And because it takes so much time and skill to learn this...

And there's such a huge learning curve...

(But also a HUGE payoff....)

Most people don't get it right.

Lucky for you though, I've just figured out how you can
knock off the learning curve part and go right to the payoff.

You see, Rachel's husband has been studying the power of
story for years.

Rachel tells me he has all kinds of books about story on his
bedstand -books about how to deliver story, how movie writers
write stories, how to use story for influence...

Out-of-print story books...

Thousand dollar courses...

Rare Dan Kennedy works...

You name it, he has consumed it.

And his payoff has been monumental.

And now, he's decided to offer you a service where you
can indulge in the same payoff.

Here's what this is about:

Rachel's husband Otto is going to work with you and figure
out what the most powerful stories you have are.

He'll interview you, get to know you, and really hear
where you've come from...

...and then hand you 10 extremely potent gold-getting
stories you have but aren't using.

Remember... these stories work EVERYWHERE. It
doesn't matter what your niche... humans are hard
wired no matter what it is.

And he'll help you craft your story as it applies to your
niche.

You'll be able to use your 10 stories in:

- Sales copy

- Autoresponder sequences

- Press releases

- Media kits

- Bio pages on your blog

- And anywhere else. (Rachel's mentor uses this everywhere,
even at restaurants with strangers, and enrolls clients near
constantly).

This is a VERY big opportunity. Otto literally charges - and gets -
$10k a day for consulting.

He knows a LOT.

But because Rachel is his wife, he's decided to cut you a VERY
special deal.

Considering what others have paid him for this, it's a very
big opportunity.

But his "catch" is that he isn't going to work with just anyone
who signs up.

Story is a VERY VERY VERY powerful tool, and Otto wants
to make sure it's used for GOOD.

So he wants to talk with you first, make sure he gets a good
feeling about you, and then go from there.

So if you're interested in using story to ramp up your business...

Here's what to do now:

1. Simply hit "reply" to this email and change the "to" address
to otto56@gmail.com (make sure you mention this email, he isn't
offering this deal to everybody, after all, so including this
email by replying is the safest way to get that special price).

2. Tell Otto you're very interested in his services

He'll contact you back, and you can go from there.

After you work with him, please show me your stories, OK?

I would absolutely love to hear them and get to know you
better.

I'm truly looking forward to hearing all the magic that is created
from this.

Dennis, The 5 Buck Guy

P.S. Because this is a time-intensive process, Otto won't be
able to take on a huge amount of clients. He's committed to
doing everything he needs to do to do a GREAT job for
you. What he does is truly an artform, and it takes time.

And I truly believe this is the #1 thing you can do to stand
out from a crowd.

So if you're at all interested, you owe it to yourself to email
him now - otto56@gmail.com ...

It's VERY worth your time.

How Perry (oops I meant Gano) Escaped the Dilbert Cube

Gano,

Today's the 10 year anniversary of my Dilbert Cube Escape. I'm eternally thankful.

What would it be like for YOU to walk away from your job with nothing but 10 ideas written on the back of a business card?

What would it be like to go ahead and replace your income in 19 days?

How could you pull it off so fast? How do you take the risk out?

How Steve Jobs Gave His Life for Mine - October 06 2011

Internet Marketing Secrets
Special Edition - October 06 2011
How Steve Jobs Gave His Life for Mine


Mikecr,


Sorry this is a bit late. I was a little
too shaken to write it yesterday.

Back in the mid 1980's I was broke and
destitute. I was drowning in desperation,
living in a single room with a shared
bath, one rent payment away from
skid row.

I had been out of high school for a
decade. Hating my career as a cook by day,
and burned out from playing blues in bars
at night, I realized that I needed to go
back to college.

Sniffing around the federal employment
office I noticed a job posting for VidTex
operators. (It wasn't called desktop
publishing just yet.) After reading the
job description, I knew it would be
something I'd love to do.

My training was on a state of the art Mac
SE20. Graduating in 1988 at the top of
my class, I was given 21 dollars an hour
to start, at the first place I applied at.
Thanks to Adobe Postscript, Aldus
Pagemaker and most of all, Steve Jobs'
Apple Computer and Laserwriter, I was
in top demand.

I spent the next few years evangelizing
the Mac, training print shops and
traditional film strippers to make the
jump to digital. By 1993 I was head of
prepress and lead designer for a large
commercial printing plant.

In 1994 the commercial internet began.
While at the Seybold Publishing show in
San Francisco, I picked up the local
newspaper. The difference being, this
edition was published on CD with HTML
1.0 and read using the Mosaic browser.

I realized at that moment, power had
shifted. This was the most important
invention since Gutenberg's printing
press and movable type. My mind
sparked, remembering Mark Twain's
advice, "Find out where the people are
going and try to get there first."

I began to moonlight as a website designer
in 1994. By 1996 I left my full time job
at the printing plant and began my career
in SEO. I was so successful at it, that I
wrote a book about it in 1999 called,
"Nothing but 'Net" which became an instant
success, having been downloaded to date
over 1/2 a million times.

The rest - as they say - is history. But I
wouldn't have the freedom and lifestyle
that have today, without the Apple
products, that made it possible to live my
dream, starting with that Mac SE20 back
in 1988.

Besides my faith in God, I owe my success
and career largely to one person, Steve
Jobs. I am forever indebted and grateful,
for making my career possible, so I could
spend my life, doing what I love to do.

Thank you Steve Jobs for giving your life
to Apple, so I could have mine.

Michael


P.S.

I'll leave you with a snippet from
the original Steve Jobs Stanford
commencement speech from 2005...

You've got to find what you love.
Your work is going to fill a large part of
your life, and the only way to be truly
satisfied, is to do what you believe is
great work. And the only way to do great
work, is to love what you do.

If you haven't found it yet, keep looking
and don't settle. As with all matters of
the heart, you'll know when you find it.
And, like any great relationship, it just
gets better and better as the years roll
on. So keep looking until you find it.
Don't settle. ~ Steve Jobs

Thank you Steve. May you rest in peace
and may God bless.

Grand Opening of My Affiliate Program


Mikecr,

Just a short announcement today. My
affiliate program is now open. You can
sell Lifetime Memberships to the Dynamic
Media Vault. Here is a quick overview...

* Runs through iDev and Paypal
* 100 dollar commission per sale
* Dozens of ads to choose from
* 90 day cookies + remarketing
* 25 dollar bonus for signing up

If you're interested in more details
please read on. If not, please disregard
this email, or forward it to your favorite
internet / affiliate marketer, who may be
interested. I appreciate your support.
Your regular Internet Marketing Secrets

The product is a Lifetime Membership to
the Dynamic Media Vault. It's all my
internet marketing products, research,
experiments and test data, stashed in one
place for one low price. You can read

Vault: http://www.dynamicmedia.com

The selling price of the membership is 197
dollars. You get 51% per sale. That means
over 100 in commission per sale.

There are dozens of ads to choose from.
Some can be downloaded from the affiliate
control panel. An email with a link to zip
file, with dozens of Universal Ad Sizes,
will be sent once your application
is approved.

There will be a remarketing campaign to
boost the conversion rate. That means,
I've purchased ads that follow people
around the internet. When they purchase,
your original cookie will get credit for
90 days. So mail early and often. ;-)
