<p>First, the bad news&#8230;</p>
<p>Back in February 2007, Mike Filsaime offered a $5,000 seminar where he, along with his VP of Operations Tom Beal, pulled back the curtain on their multi-million dollar business.</p>
<p>They detailed *every* step they took to go from <strong>zero to $1,000,000+ in sales in less than 2 years,</strong> along with action steps, resources, mindset and more.  (And they are now at $10,000,000/year and growing!)</p>
<p>Then Mike took the live event DVDs (which now sell for $1,297) and sold over 2,500 copies of them last summer in just 7 days.</p>
<p>Considering the seminar was a small gathering of business owners and entrepreneurs, you most likely missed the SOLD OUT live event (never to be repeated).</p>
<p>Or, if you didn&#8217;t have $1,297 to pony up for the DVDs, <em>you were out of luck. </em></p>
<p><strong>But here&#8217;s the good news!&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Recently, Mike paid $25,000 to one of the TOP online marketing copywriters to go through the entire 16 DVDs of &#8220;The 7 Figure Code&#8221; seminar and condense it all down into a concise, to-the-point action manual.</p>
<p>And the result? An 84-page report, with no fluff and with ALL of the gold nuggets, pearls of wisdom and action steps for you to take online.</p>
<p>(I personally love this new version - because all of the gems from the $5,000 seminar are packed into a 1-2 hour read, instead of watching 2 days of video!)</p>
<p>Now here&#8217;s where it gets *really* good&#8230;</p>
<p>=============================================<br />
<strong>This New &#8220;7 Figure Secrets&#8221; Manual is Totally *FREE*!</strong><br />
=============================================</p>
<p>While Mike originally planned on selling this for $297, he decided he could generate more goodwill in the market &#8212; and ultimately help more people achieve massive success online &#8212; if he offered it for nothing.  (And of course this helps create more raving fans for all of his other products and services once he delivers great content to you.  He&#8217;s being completely transparent about this on his site, which is a breath of fresh air!)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/free7figuresecrets.html" target="_blank">Free &#8220;The 7 Figure Secrets&#8221; Manual</a></p>
<p>But it gets even better&#8230;</p>
<p>Mike also hired the best Internet Marketing experts on process mapping, Rich Schefrens&#8217; Strategic Profits, to produce these process maps based on each DVD and has decided to give you <strong>complete access to these full-color documents, too!</strong></p>
<p>And he&#8217;s including his best-selling &#8220;Butterfly Marketing Manuscript 2.0&#8243; ($97 Value) for <strong>free </strong>as well (but only for the first 10 days of the launch &#8212; and in very limited quantities).</p>
<p>You simply have to pay the shipping and handling (only a measly 8 bucks or so) to get the no-nonsense manual and bonuses sent right to your doorstep.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s got just a few thousand copies printed, spiral bound, and sitting at the warehouse ready to ship.  And the new site just went live.  That&#8217;s why if you want to get your FREE copy of this awesome new package, grab your copy right away before he empties the shelves.</p>

<p>P.S. &#8212; Let&#8217;s be clear.  This is NOT about another tactic, piece of software or flash-in-the-pan advice from a one-hit wonder.</p>
<p>Truth be told, this manual teaches what it takes to not only start from scratch and build up a wildly successful business, but it also covers what it takes to treat your business as a *REAL* business that serves your lifestyle (which is where most people fall flat on their face).  And it&#8217;s all done in 84-pages&#8230;and for free.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/book-of-the-month.jpg" border="0" alt="book-of-the-month.jpg" title="book-of-the-month.jpg" align="left" /><span style="background-color: #ffffff">Unfortunately,</span> while we live in a world driven by capitalism, the foundation of our education system has very little to do with actually <span style="background-color: #ffffff">teaching</span> prosperity, wealth and investing.</p>
<p>That&#39;s why so many people who were successful during the prime years of their lives end up having to work longer and longer these days&#8230;and retire to an itty bitty amount of what they should have in their bank accounts.</p>
<p>Which means, it&#39;s imperative you and I must become serious students of money and investing ourselves.  And in this day and age, we&#39;re fortunate that the resources we need ARE readily available.</p>
<p>(By the way, long before I had sold millions online, I was a student of money and wealth.  So if you&#39;re just starting out - it&#39;s even more import to learn these NOW - so the instant the money starts pouring in&#8230;you know exactly how to maximize it.)</p>
<p>This month, I&#39;m highlighting two books which help you keep your profits in your pocket, along with making it truly work for you while you sleep.</p>
<p>No matter if you are a mega-successful business owner, a 9am-5pm worker or a budding entrepreneur - these are wonderful books to learn from and share with others (I recommend them and buy them for family and friends myself)&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0156029634?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=lifetimemarke-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0156029634" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/andrew-tobias.jpg" border="0" alt="andrew-tobias.jpg" title="andrew-tobias.jpg" hspace="5" vspace="0" align="left" /></a>&quot;<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0156029634?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=lifetimemarke-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0156029634" target="_blank">The Only Investment Guide You&#39;ll Ever Need</a>&quot; - by Andrew Tobias.  While his title is a little stretch, the fact is this book is a marvelous eye-opener for every single wealth-building avenue that exists today.</p>
<p>Because Tobias has written for <em>The New York Times</em>, <em>Parade</em>, <em>Money</em>, <em>Esquire</em> and more - he tackles a typically dry subject with a great sense of humor&#8230;which makes for a very entertaining and <strong>understandable </strong>read.  (And he updates this book every few years - so you&#39;ll find all the latest options and sites referenced.)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1416558853?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=lifetimemarke-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1416558853" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/jim-cramer-stay-mad-for-life.jpg" border="0" alt="jim-cramer-stay-mad-for-life.jpg" title="jim-cramer-stay-mad-for-life.jpg" hspace="5" vspace="5" align="right" /></a></p>
<p>&quot;<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1416558853?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=lifetimemarke-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1416558853" target="_blank">Stay mad for Life: Get Rich, Stay Rich (Make Your Kids Even Richer)</a>&quot; by Jim Cramer.  If you&#39;ve ever been screamed out on the TV by Cramer, don&#39;t worry - a lot of that is a &#39;character&#39; he created for his TV show.</p>
<p>When you get him in another setting &#8212; like this book, or someone else&#39;s talk show &#8212; you see another side of him that genuinely wants all of us to live prosperously.</p>
<p>While Andrew&#39;s book covers virtually every investment vehicle, along with tips for which to use and which to avoid, Jim&#39;s focuses very heavily on retirement accounts and of course his philosophies about money.</p>
<p>Like Andrew&#39;s book, Jim&#39;s is full of strong opinions and specific action steps - and it&#39;s a quick read.  It&#39;s important to note neither book requires you become a full-time investment expert.  Instead, they give you new ways of thinking about money and better ways to invest so it&#39;s working hard for you in a very passive way.</p>
<p>Both resources will open your eyes to the money management knowledge you simply must master, so all the hard work you put in today will truly pay off for you &#8212; and your family! &#8212; in 30, 40, 50 years when you&#39;re ready to kick back and relax for good.</p>
<p>Talk to you soon,</p>

<p>P.P.P.S. &#8212; My good friend and smart marketer, Andrew Lock, recently launched his totally free weekly web TV show called <strong>&quot;Help! My Business Sucks!&quot;</strong>.  He recently spoke with me at Yanik Silver&#39;s Underground Online Marketing Seminar and was definitely one of the crowd favorites.  Not only is Andrew a video expert, but he loves sharing little time-saving tools and sites.

		<description><![CDATA[With April Fool's Day being celebrated this month, I got a great chance to have a little more fun. April 1 is usually reserved for fun with my parents. And this year was no different!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You probably know by now I&#8217;m a big fan of having FUN in my life.  From exotic trips to scavenger hunts to crazy adventures (like zero g flights and racing indy cars) to theater&#8230;I think you should <strong>work hard AND play hard</strong>.</p>
<p>Well, one of the other ways I enjoy having fun is with practical jokes.  I&#8217;ve pulled them on family, friends, business partners - you name it.  And with April Fool&#8217;s Day being celebrated this month, I got a great chance to have a little more fun.  April 1 is usually reserved for fun with my parents.  And this year was no different!</p>
<p>Then after flying back in from giving two brand new presentations at Yanik Silver&#8217;s Underground Online Seminar and a little recovery nap, I hopped in the car and drove down to my parents&#8217; house around 2am.</p>
<p>Armed with 1000 feet of <em>&#8220;Crime Scene - Do Not Cross&#8221;</em> tape (thanks eBay), I was ready to have some fun.   20 minutes later, my Mom and Dad&#8217;s house was totally roped off to look like a crime scene. <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Take a look (click the pics to enlarge them):</p>

<p>Of course my parents got a great laugh, but the best part was my Mom and Dad getting calls from all the neighbors asking what was going on.  LOL!  Unfortunately it was raining, or they would have gotten a few chalk body outlines on the driveway too. <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Remember, work hard AND play hard!  Keep people smiling and on their toes&#8230;and you&#8217;ll find life &#8212; <em>and your business</em> &#8212; become a lot more fun!</p>

<p>P.S. - Last year, they got a yard full of pink flamingos.  Here are a couple more pictures to make you smile:</p>
<p align="center"> <a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/april-fools-2007a.jpg" target="_blank" title="april-fools-2007a.jpg"><img src="http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/april-fools-2007a.jpg" title="april-fools-2007a.jpg" alt="april-fools-2007a.jpg" height="151" hspace="5" vspace="5" width="200" /></a><a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/april-fools-2007b.jpg" target="_blank" title="april-fools-2007b.jpg"><img src="http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/april-fools-2007b.jpg" title="april-fools-2007b.jpg" alt="april-fools-2007b.jpg" height="151" hspace="5" vspace="5" width="199" /></a></p>
<p align="left"> P.P.S. - I meant to post this earlier - but got knocked on my ass by same nasty virus for about 10 days (haven&#8217;t been that sick in ages). Not fun!   Plus, we&#8217;ve been spending the last 6 weeks trying to diagnose a medical problem with my Dad (the docs think it&#8217;s some type of cancer&#8230;but all the tests aren&#8217;t coming back with answers yet&#8230;very weird).  I&#8217;ll update you more later, but needless to say things have been a bit crazy between doc appointments every other day and the virus.  Thanks for your patience!</p>
<p align="left"> P.P.P.S. - I&#8217;ve been playing around with the &#8220;Twitter&#8221; service which is a form of micro-blogging and mini-updates. (Similar to the &#8220;status&#8221; feature on Facebook and Myspace).</p>
<p align="left">Right now I&#8217;ve been using it for more personal updates along with a few business things, but if you want to see what I&#8217;m doing and &#8220;Follow&#8221; me on there, sign up for a free account.  Beware: Considering you can send it updates from your cell phone, IM or the web, it can become addicting to use! <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.mlmblog.com/images/unclutter-your-business-life.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="5" width="172" height="124" align="left" />As your entrepreneurial life takes off, you&#8217;ll find your business slowly getting cluttered with repetitive, frustrating (and often time-wasting) tasks. It&#8217;s all too easy to lose hours a week &#8212; or hours a DAY &#8212; focusing on things that aren&#8217;t productive, instead of pouring your energy into profit-producing activities.</p>
<p>Which means, it&#8217;s <strong>critical</strong> you recognize the &#8220;time vampires&#8221;, as <a href="http://www.freedankennedynewsletter.com" target="_blank">Dan Kennedy</a> calls them, and put an end to them once and for all. Kill them as soon as they start cluttering your day.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m a *huge* fan of outsourcing these tasks so you can have more fun (and time) in your life. But outsourcing doesn&#8217;t always have to be to another person - it can mean handing something off to software or 3rd-party systems that handle the heavy lifting.</p>
<p>So with &#8220;Organize Your Home Office Day&#8221; being celebrated this month, I thought it would be the perfect time to share 3 of my favorite kick-butt, time-saving tools with you&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br />
<strong>Clutter Reducer #1: <a href="http://www.google.com/calendar/" target="_blank">Google Calendar</a></strong><br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>This totally free tool rocks! I got tired of having different calendars for different projects - personal one in Outlook, joint venture projects in Microsoft Groove, family events on paper, etc. I&#8217;ve been dying for a calendar system that allows the ultimate flexibility when collaborating with others, but that also isolates my personal events. (I doubt my business partners care about when I&#8217;m getting my teeth cleaned at the dentist. <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> ).</p>
<p>Enter: Google Calendar! This brilliantly designed, completely web-based <strong>free </strong>tool allows you to do all that and more!</p>
<p>Simply create as many calendars as you need (for example, I have ones for my joint venture projects, my company, my family, my personal events, birthdays and more). Each calendar gets color-coded and then appears (or disappears) from your master calendar view simply by checking the boxes on the left.</p>
<p>Now here&#8217;s the cool part: You can set up &#8220;sharing&#8221; for individual calendars and events. Which means my team members ONLY get access to my JV calendar and company calendar, while my family has access to the &#8220;Zavadowski Family Events&#8221; calendar. And brilliant Google even lets you control permissions, so your calendar can be &#8220;read-only&#8221; or others can add/change events as needed.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a snapshot of my current &#8220;master calendar&#8221; view&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.google.com/calendar/" target="_blank"><img title="Chris's Google Calendar" src="http://www.mlmblog.com/images/google-calendar-example.gif" border="1" alt="Chris's Google Calendar" hspace="5" vspace="5" width="326" height="202" /></a></p>
<p>Along with TONS of other features (including text messaging reminders, public shared calendars, multiple views and more, the possibilities are endless.</p>
<p>If you host weekly team trainings for your downline, why not create a team calendar that shows all the upcoming events, along with dial-in information, motivational tips and more.</p>
<p>Or if you&#8217;re traveling around hosting live events, you can even publish your calendar on your website for others to see.</p>
<p>Or combine both ideas and put your team calendar on your team training mini-site. The system is virtually limitless!</p>
<p>And one more thing&#8230;</p>
<p>If you currently use Outlook (or PDAs requiring Outlook), but fall in love with Google for its massive collaboration potential, I recommend a piece of software called &#8220;Oggsync&#8221; (much more powerful than Google&#8217;s free tool currently is). I use it to sync all of my different events and calendars between Outlook and Google. With the push of a button, everything is always up-to-date, whether on my computer, or on the web.</p>
<p>The importance of Google Calendar is to streamline your business life. Instead of trying to juggle and remember events on different calendars (or scraps of paper and post-it notes), keep everything cleanly organized online with you, your team and your staff &#8212; all in ONE central, web-based location. Play around with Google Calendar for 5 minutes and you&#8217;ll wonder how you ever lived without it.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br />
<strong>Clutter Reducer #2: <a href="http://www.instantmlmsalesletters.com/dt/t.php?id=164" target="_blank">Spam Arrest</a></strong><br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>In today&#8217;s world, the biggest time waster is EASILY email. Much has been written on regaining control of your inbox, controlling our email addictions and more, so I&#8217;m not going to spend time covering a topic that&#8217;s been thoroughly covered. Instead, I&#8217;m going to focus on the biggest email clutter culprit (and how to kill it).</p>
<blockquote><p><em>(Side note - If you DO have a big problem with managing your </em><em>legit email, I highly recommend you read Tim Ferris&#8217; &#8220;The 4-Hour Workweek&#8221; for excellent strategies on information reduction and email control).</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Do the math and you&#8217;ll see you&#8217;re losing days, if not weeks, each year deleting spam. 10 minutes a day x 5 days a week x 50 work weeks a year = almost <strong>42 hours spent deleting spam each year</strong>. That&#8217;s at least a FULL work week totally lost to email you never want to see in the first place! And if your business is bigger&#8230;you can easily tack on another week or two of wasted time.</p>
<p>So since this article is about reducing clutter - and nothing clutters up your computer time like spam - I highly recommend you check out Spam Arrest. For the last 3+ years, this inexpensive, but powerful, service has been protecting me from hundreds of thousands of spam messages.</p>
<p>In fact, in the last week alone it&#8217;s blocked 7,493+ pieces of spam sent to my <em>personal</em> inbox (our company email addresses get 4-5x that amount). Yikes!</p>
<p>Essentially it works on a challenge/response system. Someone emails you, and the service emails them back asking for verification they are a real person. It happens ONE time and BAM&#8230;the person now makes it to your inbox&#8230;while all the other spam emails never see the light of day.</p>
<p>Of course you have full control over everything, so you can block emails, import your contacts ahead of time and do much more. Plus if you take an extra hour or two to set it up, your contacts don&#8217;t even need to know you&#8217;re using it.</p>
<p>Just like Google Calendar, <a href="http://www.instantmlmsalesletters.com/dt/t.php?id=164" target="_blank">Spam Arrest</a> can pull everything into one centralized location. It checks multiple email accounts for me&#8230;dropping them all into my master inbox. That way I&#8217;m not wasting more time trying to manage multiple inboxes. The month or so it takes to get all the legit emails on your &#8220;whitelist&#8221; is WELL worth the weeks of your life that will be saved. Highly recommended!</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br />
<strong>Clutter Reducer #3: <a href="http://www.j2.com" target="_blank">j2</a> and <a href="http://www.instantmlmsalesletters.com/dt/t.php?id=165" target="_blank">PhoneTag</a> 1-2 Punch</strong><br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>Have you ever found yourself getting totally derailed every time the phone rings? Or have you ever found yourself listening to voicemail messages that last for 5 minutes, only to realize they should have taken 30 seconds?</p>
<p>One of the biggest time wasters entrepreneurs face (along with email) is the PHONE! Just one ring can completely get you off track when you&#8217;re focused on a project and totally clutter your day with distractions. Not to mention a quick phone call here, and another quick phone call there really adds up over a month&#8230;</p>
<p><em>That&#8217;s why I recommend you </em><em>let these tools do the heavy lifting.</em></p>
<p>Simply put, <a href="http://www.j2.com" target="_blank">j2</a> is a dedicated business line that&#8217;s essentially &#8220;answer-only&#8221;. For about $15/month, you can have a phone number in virtually any area code you want. Then you set up the voicemail and <em>presto </em>- it will take all your calls! Not only will you avoid getting derailed by unexpected calls, but this service will also convert the voicemails to .wav files and email them wherever you want. If you have an assistant, let him handle these calls for you.</p>
<p>Plus, j2 also accepts faxes on your number - forget adding extra papers to your office clutter!</p>
<p>Your faxes instantly get converted over to .pdf and emailed wherever you want. I&#8217;ve been using this service for the last five years and love it!</p>
<p>But&#8230;it works best when you pair it up with <a href="http://www.instantmlmsalesletters.com/dt/t.php?id=165" target="_blank">PhoneTag,</a> formerly SimulScribe, (my good buddy Yanik Silver turned me on to this one). Have your j2 voicemails forwarded right to PhoneTag and you&#8217;ll never have to listen to messages again! This $10/month service will instantly transcribe your voicemails &#8212; with amazing accuracy! &#8212; and email them to you (or your staff). In my case, they go right over to Lara where she handles them for me in a jiffy.</p>
<p>Not only will a streamlined system like this help to unclutter your life and office with distractions and paper, but it also <em><strong>helps you to service your customers and clients better! </strong></em></p>
<p>You can be fully prepared to help someone out, instead of being caught off guard, putting them on hold, and wasting everyone&#8217;s time. Check these services out - you&#8217;ll love &#8216;em!</p>
<p>And here&#8217;s a bonus clutter reducer: Go paperless! This one is short and sweet. Anywhere you have a chance to &#8220;go paperless&#8221; with a service, do it!</p>
<p>Not only does this reduce clutter in your life and office, but it reduces paper waste and protects your privacy from something getting stolen in the mail. All of our bank statements, bills, tax reports and more are switched over to the paperless option.</p>
<p>Instead of having to file away a stack of papers every month (and archive them for the IRS each year), you simply save the .pdf file on your computer and you&#8217;re done. I can find any statement in 60 seconds, and have a lot more free closet space. <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> Talk about eliminating clutter - I love it (and you will too!)</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>
<p>So there you have it - three (well, four) ways to unclutter your business life. Give them a try so you can spend less time bogged down in clutter and time-wasters, and more time making the $$$ and having fun in your business!</p>
<p><strong>Please leave your thoughts below and also share some of YOUR favorite tools and tricks to cut back on the clutter and organize your life better. </strong>Help make this article even more useful!</p>
<p>Talk to you soon!</p>
<p>Chris <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>P.S. - In a few weeks, I&#8217;ll be speaking at Yanik Silver&#8217;s famous Underground Online Marketing Seminar. I&#8217;ll be giving two separate presentations - one on outsourcing tricks and strategies for your small business, and another on webinars as the hottest cutting-edge marketing tool around (Yanik calls it &#8220;enlightened&#8221;). If you&#8217;re attending the event, be sure to come up and say &#8220;hi&#8221;!</p>
<p>P.P.S. - Shameless Plug: Keep your eyes peeled for &#8220;<em>Outsourcing Secrets Exposed</em>&#8221; coming your way later this year. Based on the totally sold-out workshop I taught with Jim Edwards, this will be a revamped and updated live training program you won&#8217;t want to miss.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.mlmblog.com/images/weird-online-video.jpg" title="Weird New Video" alt="Weird New Video" align="left" height="120" hspace="5" vspace="0" width="156" />Chris here with a &#8220;weird&#8221; new video for you&#8230;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure you can agree &#8212; 2008 has been crazy so far! In the last 6-8 weeks alone, my inbox has been stuffed with email after email with all kinds of promotions for those big Internet marketing mega-launches.</p>
<p>Now I&#8217;m sure all those guys probably made a million bucks with their launches.</p>
<p>But here&#8217;s the big question (and really, <strong>the big *problem*</strong>) I have:</p>
<p><em>What&#8217;s the &#8216;little guy&#8217; supposed to do?  </em></p>
<p>You know, the regular &#8220;non-guru&#8221; who doesn&#8217;t have a bunch of friends to mail for him? Can just plain regular folks win with these kinds of launches online?</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why I wanted to share this &#8220;weird&#8221; video with you today.  It&#8217;s pretty short, and this will give you the FINAL answer on the &#8216;regular folks&#8217; question.</p>
<p>Not only will you see how one &#8216;little guy&#8217; with a crazy, obscure niche (WAY outside of marketing or business) literally went <strong>from a food stamps line to a six figure income</strong>, but you&#8217;ll also see the niche, the product and <strong>EXACTLY how he did it.</strong> (And for free, too.)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.instantmlmsalesletters.com/dt/t.php?id=162" target="_blank">Click here to go watch the video now.</a></p>
<p>But before you go&#8230;one more thing: You don&#8217;t need to enter your email address to see the video - it&#8217;s totally free.  However make sure that you do enter your email address anyway &#8212; because the follow-up case study and *action steps* are going to be even wilder than this first video.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.instantmlmsalesletters.com/dt/t.php?id=162" target="_blank">Click here to watch the video.</a></p>
<p>Talk to you soon,</p>
<p>Chris <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>P.S. &#8212; The idea of &#8220;food stamps to six figures&#8221; is cool&#8230;but that&#8217;s just one of the amazing non-guru case studies. You&#8217;ll also discover how a tiny list of 312 people can generate more than five figures and a few other surprises.</p>
<p>Remember, these are <em>real people, with real results outside of the online marketing world</em>.  (In other words this is stuff <strong>you can be using immediately </strong>in your own business, regardless of market or niche.)</p>

<p>Basically, it&#8217;s a marketer&#8217;s thesaurus to help you sell more of your products, services and to help the killer ideas flow.</p>
<p>Instead of writing boring copy, this inexpensive paperback helps you jazz up your communication with powerful, emotional words that resonate more strongly with your audience.</p>
<p>If you need quick inspiration, or need another way to say &#8220;easy&#8221; or &#8220;popular&#8221; or &#8220;money-making&#8221; or one of the other 73 words and phrases in this book, you&#8217;re all set.  Just flip to that page and you&#8217;ll find a large list of alternatives, complete with cross-references to related adjectives and phrases.</p>
<p>Not only is it a great sales thesaurus, but he includes lists of guarantees, ways to justify your prices, phrases to avoid and much more.  Not bad for $11.53, eh?</p>
<p>Even though I don&#8217;t need to use a swipe file like this all the time, but it&#8217;s still one of the few copywriting resources that are <strong>within armsreach of my keyboard.</strong></p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re serious about leveraging the powerful of copy in your business (and you better be if you&#8217;ve been reading this blog for any length of time)&#8230;then this is an <strong>invaluable </strong>book to own.   Grab a copy over at <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FWords-that-Sell-revised-expanded%2Fdp%2F0071467858%3Fie%3DUTF8%26s%3Dbooks%26qid%3D1204505495%26sr%3D1-1&amp;tag=lifetimemarke-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325" target="_blank">Amazon.com</a> (through my cleverly disguised affiliate link that earns me a whopping fifteen cents. Heck, if enough people buy it&#8230;I could afford a beer!) <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Seriously though&#8230;grab the book.  And be sure to post your comments below if you own it already.</p>

<p>The guy pulling all the strings behind the scenes, but that no one knew was there?</p>
<p>Well today it&#8217;s time to meet the man behind the Internet marketing and prospecting curtain&#8230;.Frank Kern.</p>
<p>You see, while you may have heard of my good friend, Frank, you might not know that he&#8217;s been responsible for the largest site/product launches in online marketing history.</p>
<p>And if you aren&#8217;t familiar with Frank, you should be!</p>
<p>While Frank has this down-to-earth, funny-as-heck personality, he&#8217;s also a genius marketer.  His understanding of human nature and his ability to bond with people online is nothing short of amazing.</p>
<p>In fact, he&#8217;s been responsible for over <strong>$23.8 million dollars</strong> in sales in under 24 hours using a techinque he&#8217;s mastered called &#8220;mass control&#8221;.</p>
<p>Finally he&#8217;s pulling back the curtain and sharing many of his greatest techniques and strategies for *free* in the videos on his new &#8220;Mass Control&#8221; website&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/free-masscontrol-videos.html" target="_blank">Free Mass Control Videos</a></p>
<p>To be honest, I spent<strong> some of my very first dollars online</strong> (and also made some of my very first dollars online) with a package Frank was selling almost 7 years ago.  And back in 2006, I dropped $10,000 with him just to learn ONE ninja technique he was using to rake in megabucks *outside* of the marketing niche.</p>
<p>More recently <strong>I&#8217;ve used some of his super-easy mass control techniques to more than 5x (yes, FIVE TIMES!) sales on one of my niche sites.</strong></p>
<p>That&#8217;s why I urge you to listen to what this man has to say&#8230;especially since the price is right (read: <strong><em>FREE</em></strong>).</p>
<p>On his new site you&#8217;ll find this totally free content&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8211; A 33 page report that gives the REAL story about the biggest launches in Internet Marketing history. (He should know because he&#8217;s the guy that masterminded them.)</p>
<p>&#8211; A 90-minute video showing Mass Control in action &#8230;so you can see how to start using this system in your business RIGHT NOW</p>
<p>&#8211; Case studies where NON-GURU students of his used Mass Control to pull in up to $12,000 a week &#8230;without doing a launch, without affiliates, and without doing anything &#8220;fancy&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8211; A 20 minute video that shows you how you can use Mass Control to make cash TODAY&#8230;by giving away free stuff.</p>
<p>&#8211; Plus 4 more videos that give you list building templates, live examples to copy and more!</p>
<p>Nothing but 100% refreshing content. And he walks you through everything step-by-step.</p>
<p>Is that cool or what?</p>
<p>Whether or not you&#8217;re interested in going through his full &#8220;mass control&#8221; program when he releases it in February, the marketing education you&#8217;ll get from watching his free videos and studying his copy is worth it&#8217;s weight in gold alone.</p>
<p><strong>And whether or not you want to accept it - we are ALL marketers.  To say we are not in the sales and marketing business as MLMers is to ignore the obvious. </strong> The sooner you jump headfirst into marketing and become an expert at it, the sooner your network marketing business will explode.   That&#8217;s why I encourage you to soak up the marketing strategies Frank is revealing - they ARE applicable to the online prospecting mini-site methods I&#8217;ve been teaching you.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/free-masscontrol-videos.html" target="_blank">Free Mass Control Videos</a></p>
<p>By the way, Frank hasn&#8217;t allowed any new subscribers onto his list for 2 years&#8230;which means you&#8217;ve finally got another chance to watch all his new free content-packed videos, read his new reports and have access to his mad scientist mind for yourself.</p>
<p>Get the full scoop here (no email required):<br />

<p>Wishing you the best,</p>
<p>Chris Zavadowski <img src='http://www.mlmblog.com/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>P.S. &#8212; Considering Frank has been the &#8220;man behind the curtain&#8221; for four of the biggest launches in Internet marketing history&#8230;I&#8217;ll bet you&#8217;ll pick up a thing or two from what he does to launch his own new program.  (I know I&#8217;ll be watching very closely ourselves!)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/free-masscontrol-videos.html" target="_blank">Free Mass Control Videos</a></p>
<p>Be sure to view his new, free &#8220;how to&#8221; videos before he takes them down for good like he has in the past.</p>

<p>Traditional &#8220;goal setting&#8221; is a giant load of BS and the movie <em>The Secret</em> was over-hyped and only gave half the story.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what I mean&#8230;</p>
<p>Every New Year&#8217;s Eve we&#8217;ve been told to set our goals for the coming year, and it goes like this&#8230;</p>
<p>* Write out a &#8220;wish&#8221; list on December 31&#8230;<br />
* Toast it with champagne at 11:59 p.m&#8230;.<br />
* Forget all about it by noon January 2nd&#8230;<br />
* Life is back to &#8220;normal&#8221; by January 3rd&#8230;</p>
<p>Sound familiar?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve made the same mistake myself before I discovered how the &#8220;Law Of Attraction&#8221; really works &#8212; and WHY we <strong>REALLY </strong>get what we want from life.  That&#8217;s when my life changed instantly for the better.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve personally gone from earning $200/week performing professionally in theater (and in debt)&#8230;to selling millions online&#8230;.while *<em>still</em>* participating in my passion of the arts (and now investing in them too)&#8230;and while being <strong>totally debt-free</strong> and <strong>financially independent</strong> with a killer &#8220;lifestyle&#8221; business that funds all of my crazy trips and adventures for both myself and my family.</p>
<p>Now my good friend and business partner, Jim Edwards, followed the traditional &#8220;wishing&#8221; strategy his whole adult life too and all it did was land him in a trailer park, lead him to the &#8220;poor house&#8221; and &#8212; ultimately &#8212; into a permanent heart condition.</p>
<p><em>But when he used the Law of Attraction, everything changed!</em></p>
<p>In fact, in the space of just 9 months, he went from bankrupt and living in a trailer park to owning his own home and earning a 6-figure income&#8230;in less than 24 months he paid off his house&#8230;in less than 36 months his wife quit her job and came to work with him full time&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;and in less than 48 months he had his life and finances arranged so that he would never have to work another day in his life if I don&#8217;t want to.</p>
<p>Are you curious what strategies enabled us to do this (and more importantly if it&#8217;s possible for you to make the same incredible changes in your own life)?</p>
<p>You should be!</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why if you want to change your life for the better in 2008, then clear your calendar right now for a special webinar event happening this Thursday, January 10, 2008 at 7:00 pm (ET).  Because I&#8217;m going to grill Jim Edwards and have him pull back the curtain to teach you how YOU can do this in your own life (and a whole lot more!)<a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/real-world-success-webinar.html" target="_blank"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/real-world-success-webinar.html" target="_blank">Real World Success Webinar</a></p>
<p>These are action steps and simple <strong>REAL WORLD techniques</strong> he&#8217;s never talked about before and they come from the last 10 years &#8220;in the trenches&#8221; actually <strong>DOING </strong>what I&#8217;ll be grilling him about.</p>
<p>Now we didn&#8217;t want to risk all of the details getting trapped in a spam filter, so we&#8217;ve posted the full story for you on this page:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mlmblog.com/real-world-success-webinar.html" target="_blank">Real World Success Webinar</a></p>
