I know you have thought about it. You may have actually tried it. Most never got seriously involved with one or just drifted from one to another, basically staying where they were in their business. Some don’t get involved because they don’t know how to get started. Others get scared off and discouraged by the apparent success and fame of the marketing guru.

Wait a moment and let’s slow down a bit.  Let’s consider this.

Here are 3 reasons why you should work with a internet marketing pro, that you might consider.

At first, in its favor, let me point out that they have been around the block and know how to get where you want to go. Sure, I understand your objection that they may be just selling you a membership and not really be interested in your success at all. That which you say may be true of some, I agree, however it isn’t true of all marketing professions or membership programs.

Second off, you probably need to consider that without an expert’s help you could be overlooking some major flaws in your market plan. And, additionally, consider that you could also be missing out on some great opportunities you haven’t thought of.

And Third, if you choose the right membership program you could receive one-on-one attention. Which means that you can have your hard work reviewed and critiqued personally by someone the knows what to look for. And added to that, you could get tips about new tools or techniques as the become available!

Within all of the above info lies a very good group of reasons in favor of working with a internet marketing pro. What do You think?

So just consider that for the moment. An outstanding case has been made in favor. Maybe, just maybe, you really should sign up to work with a real internet marketing professional!  I personally have found Bill McIntosh to be just the kind of internet marketing guru I was was looking for.  His once a week live online workshops offer a up close and personal chance to get answers to all my questions and Bill’s insightful site reviews have made a big difference in my web traffic.  With Bill’s help,  I am well on my way to turning my blogging hobby into a lucrative internet business.

Last week Frank Kern, his friends and colleagues gathered at the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego for a two (and for some three) day event that was cram packed with enthusiasm, experience and entertainment. With non-stop presentations from 9 a.m. (roughly) to 10 p.m. this was one event that was not for the faint of the heart nor those of with a high levels of PC sensitivity. Frank’s unique style of presentation borders on being highly offensive but underneath all the bravado and machismo I think there lies a extremely clever businessman, a closet gentleman and decent human being.

I personally could have done without the potty language but when he fell out of character and spoke on right action and right mind all was forgiven.

Stay tuned to later posts for more about the workshop speakers.

Since the last program I purchased was almost $2000, I was highly skeptical that this one could actually meet all of the claims noted in the review but I signed up anyway just to see for myself.  This program is called Profit Lance (you can get to the review page from the click on the those words) and I must admit that three hours later I was very impressed.  The initial start up cost of  $77  is a one time fee which includes access to their members only site.  Note:  They do indicate the cost is likely to go up in the future.

The website is well designed with a vertical menu including start up instructions, a learning center, downloadable texts/reference books, complete ready to use landing pages, product reviews, web templates and PLR (private label rights) articles, and video tutorials.  The horizontal tabs provide account management, a a complete dashboard, projects to learn on, a blog and on and on. 

In the Essential Steps section, on the left, the user is given directions for getting setup with an Clickbank account, a stats tracking code and their first web blog.  Once these accounts are recorded in the program all the predesigned and constructed landing pages and reviews are precoded with the user’s appropriate IDs and any traffic directed to on of these pages or reviews with start earning money in their Clickbank account.

Incredible! 

With these product pages you are ready to start social networking and drawing traffic to your income sites within hours, not weeks or months.  All this is included in the program.  There are not even any web design or hosting fees involved. 

I had links set up for a half dozen landing pages with an hour.  Tomorrow I will start the Twitter, Stumble routine and let you know what kind of response I generate.

The only negative I came up with in Profit Lance was slight feedback in the audio portion of the video instructions.  It’s like a minor echo or voice over glitch but even though it exists it did not interfere or hamper the clarity of the lesson.  The speaker has a slight access but his enuciation is clear, easy to understand and not unpleasant to listen to. 

I have seen other programs with a good share of this content, even recommended a few such as Wealthy Affiliates, but most of them like WA require monthly membership fee and complicated work on web setup and design.

Profit Lance has really simplified and taken the pain out of the start up process and they don’t dish out a bunch of hype.  If you find that you don’ t like the program they have a 8 week refund period, no questions asked. 

Really a win/win situation.

I just logged into my Sweetie Saturday Report Club membership to grab my February goodies and as always, I’m impressed. If you’re not familiar with the The Report Club, it’s put together by one of my favorite and ultra-practical Internet marketing teachers, Alice Seba. The club is an incredibly affordable way to receive concise, no-fluff, no fad guidance for your online business.

This month’s report is all about creative ways for using WordPress – and was put together guest writer and tech expert, Lynette Chandler. The quick guide offers 40 types of sites you can build with WordPress (it’s not just for blogs anymore) and tons of suggesting for adding features and functionality to your websites.

But there is more…Alice also puts together her monthly Essential Biz Notes which are personal thoughts, ideas and strategies from her about online business. Once again, she gave me a virtual boot kicking and shares a very useful rant about breaking out of the profit-limiting mold that we can sometimes be forced into.

Anyway, I’ve got some more reading to do…and then will be getting some work done. Click here to learn more about this month’s reports and the Sweetie Saturday Report Club.

And hey, Alice also recently added a private members-only forum where you can ask questions and share ideas – it’s another great perk to this valuable membership.
