You People Choke Me Up
Tuesday, May 20th, 2008I get so many emails from people.
Some need help building lenses on Squidoo. Others want to know how to make their own eBook. Some just want guidance on how to “be an Internet marketer.”
And sometimes people share so much in their emails. Their struggles, their hopes, their dreams. I take time to read the emails. [...]
Is Your Conscience Trying to Tell You Something?
Friday, February 1st, 2008Richard Taverner once described conscience as, “a thousand witnesses.”
This is what it feels like each time I create a product. Every time I build a lens. Each time someone emails me and I have the option to ignore and delete or respond with care.
You ought to have this same feeling throughout your Internet marketing pursuits. [...]
Fat-Headed Internet Marketing
Thursday, January 17th, 2008So this week I went to go see a dietician. Ever since I had 3 kids – well, my butt’s grown as large as my daily task list and it isn’t pretty. One thing she said to me when we were getting to the root of my eating habit mayhem was that I have to [...]
Category 5 Success Storm
Tuesday, January 1st, 2008I don’t make New Year’s Resolutions. Never have since I kept disappointing myself with failure after failure. I just vow now. Voa to live a better life, make more money, have more time with my family. I succeeded with this plan this past year so why not repeat it?
Only this year, I’m gearing up for [...]
Ask Yourself, “Am I Panicking?”
Monday, December 17th, 2007I saw the stats on that site of mine and almost started to panic. Then I had a calm come over me as I listened to the sage advice of my mentor. I can fix this!
It was very empowering. I read Seth Godin’s book The Dip recently and I have to say it’s one [...]
Organized Chaos in the Life of an Internet Marketer
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007I have a lot of plates spinning in the air, and it’s a sign of success, to some degree. I’ve really begun tightening my schedule. I have an ordinary spiral notebook I keep with me at all times to jot down ideas I want to possibly add to my business.
In it, I have pages [...]
Mandatory Marketing Reading
Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007I spent my birthday at a place I love - Barnes and Noble (okay, so I went shopping all over the place, but it was my first stop). Was surprised to see a display devoted to Seth Godin’s new book, “The Dip.”
It’s billed as “A little book that teaches you when to quit (and [...]
Internet Marketing Is Addictive
Sunday, November 26th, 2006I remember talking to Rich Schefren on the phone now and then and he was always multi-tasking and talking about all of the plans and business ideas he was implementing. I thought he must be one of those Type A personalities, because he never seemed to stop working.
Now I know why. He must be an [...]

Don’t let the hype and buzz surrounding various product launches scare you away from your true business plan. The key to success in Internet [...]
Putting My Golfer’s Instinct to Work for Me
Wednesday, October 18th, 2006I sometimes suffer from the same plague infecting other ‘net marketers – starting one thing before I finish another, so I really have to stay the course from now on. Since I was 3 years old, I’ve been an avid golfer - 3 months away from turning pro after college until I found out [...]
