Video Newsletter
Wishlist Live, High Ticket Products, Roboform and Flipcharts
Here's what went down this month (July 2009)...
1. We sold 17 seats of Product University 2.0 at $997, so I'm going to be offering more high ticket classes like that.
2. Wishlist Live in Buffalo, NY was a bunch of fun, I made some new friends, learned some WordPress stuff and saw Niagra Falls.
3. Roboform saves me 10 minutes a day which equals 60 hours per year.
4. WordPress plugin of the month: Auto FTP... it saves your FTP info so you can update plugins, install new plugins and install new themes with one click (no more retyping FTP logins).
5. It's really fun to create Flip camera videos with Flip charts... especially when you pencil your drawings in ahead of time. 20-45 minute presentation from 1 minute of prep time!
6. I'm going to be offering bribes anytime I want people to join any sort of mailing list.
Which of the six things did you like the best? What's the most important thing you learned this past month?
YouTube, AM2, Quality Score and Gmail Management
Here's my video newsletter for June 2009:
1. I'm still banned from YouTube... and have send them some e-mails, filled out their online form, sent them a tweet and send a snail mail letter... any other ideas?
2. The AM2 Platinum retreat was awesome but I only joined for the networking. Make some products first, build a list, start making money, then go to physical seminars, and THEN join a club like AM2, in that order.
3. Add Contact (PHP form mail with your physical address listed on the page) and Privacy (use a legal form generator) pages in small text at the bottom of your pages to improve your Google quality score if you do any pay-per-click.
4. You really need to switch to Gmail if you're bogged down with e-mail management. Heck, forward your existing mail to Gmail and try it out. The secret is using the Archive function. Read a message and archive or delete... or reply to a message and archive. But don't let your inbox contain more than 30 messages at one time.
The big question to cap it all off: My next product is going to be huge, different than anything else I have put out before, higher priced than anything else I have put out before. What do you think it is? Comment with your guess below. Leave me 10 comments and I'll drop the next hint on you.
