As you are probably aware, our show scheduled for yesterday, with Frank Gorka didn’t happen. It wasn’t technology gremlins, this time, but instead the weather. Luckily, Frank was just delayed because of the ice on roadways, not due to an accident. However, we are rescheduling for another date. Search Engine Optimization is a topic that can make or break your business and we want to get the information out to you.

This time of year, you have to expect that from time to time. And if you are in one of the areas heavily hit by the most recent winter storms, be careful if you are going out. Make sure that you have taken necessary measures in case you can’t get out or you loose power at your home. You know, extra groceries, flashlight batteries, a backup heating system, stuff like that!

My Mother asked me, “What are you going to do if the power goes out, you’ll freeze!” (She’s just turned 73 in January and worries too much.) I said, “Mama, I’ve lived in the woods for over 25 years, firewood is not an issue. But, that’s a Mom for you!

Now, one of the best ways to generate subs to your email list is through giveaway events. You can take a Resale Rights or Private Label Rights product, make the necessary changes and offer it for free to visitors of the event. When people see your product and want to download it, they first go to you optin page for the product. Once they’ve opted in and confirmed, they get your valuable free gift, your list has grown and you can then take them into your online family.

One of the largest events, so far this year, is the EZ-IM Giveaway that runs till February 19. Right now there are over 450 gifts available for you to download. So, if you find yourself in need of marketing information, software, graphics, Resale Rights or Private Label Rights products, you will likely find what you are looking for there. If not, let me know and I’ll check my resources for you an see what we can come up with.

Also, there are still some slots open for Jason Anderson’s iFlash Monthly membership. And to be honest, I supposed that the membership would be filled by now. Actually, that’s a presumption, since I haven’t spoken to Jason since we did the call, so I am not sure that it hasn’t filled already. But, for your sake, I hope not. You will be very impressed with what is being offered in the membership. High quality custom professional video does not come cheap. And you would be hard pressed to find a better deal.

Doug Champigny’s PowerStart 2010 coaching program is in full swing. I am in the program myself and I can tell you that there are two things you need to do. Make sure the dogs are fed, and be prepared to loose a lot of sleep! I’m thinking of putting a 55 gallon drum of coffee beside my desk and running a hose to it. Zero to business in thirty days means that you will get as much work done in thirty days as many online business owners do in a year. Doug is still accepting students for the March class. Are you there yet?

One of, if not the, most important part of your online business is your web hosting. It is not pretty to type your url into the browser and have it respond, “Page Not Found”. Not to worry, I have a solution for you, NetProSoft. Just a few of the features include, hosting unlimited domains, your autoresponder account, affiliate module, membership site module and outstanding customer support. It’s all built in and what’s more, it works! You get all that and more for probably less than you would pay for an individual hosting account and autoresponder.

Well, that should keep you busy for a while. And speaking of that, I’d better get busy. Doug will be cracking the whip!

Again, I apologize for any inconvenience for the missed show. However, we are rescheduling. Just check back here for the update.

Thanks again for your time. Remember, Massive Action brings Massive Results!

Till next time!

Jim

Our guest speaker for this episode was Jason Anderson. Jason is President and Co-Founder of iFlash Video…a custom video production company for small business and independent marketing professionals.

Jason really gave us the heads up on what they have going on at iFlash Video. They offer Custom Professional Video services created in studio grade facilities on studio grade equipment with custom music, images and voice overs.

Jason explained the process basically this way, when you become a customer, you are provided a ‘copy sheet’ that you fill this out with the text inside a box. The copy you fit inside the box amounts to about one minute. Then you add any photos and special features that you want included and upload your submission.

Jason gave us several examples of how the videos can customized to your specific needs. Basic, just about any way you like. And, possibly, in ways that you may not even have thought of.

So, here’s what’s going on now. between February 16th and 19th, they are trying something new. They have decided to create a program called “iFlash Monthly“. This is a membership type program that you will pay an up front fee with a monthly subscription, which is less than fifty dollars per month. That will get you one professionally produced, custom video per month.

If you are reading this after February 19th, don’t loose heart. Follow the link over to the site and get on the waiting list. Remember, just like every other membership site, people will fall out of the program. So, if you are on the list, you could be notified of the available space.

Jason also made it clear that by signing up to their newsletter, you will receive on ads from them, not the normal marketing that you might think. Jason did say that the newsletter will often include discounts to current services, from time to time.

Like I said, the open enrollment will end on the 19th or when 500 people have signed up. Obviously, at the price point this membership is going for, they could very well sell out before they go public with the program.

So, now, go on over to iFlash Video and secure your position. You will be very glad that you did. Even at the normal rate, you would be hard put to find a service that provides this type of quality.

Remember, come back regularly to check for updates for upcoming shows.

Thanks for your time. Take massive action and produce massive results!
