Well I just wanted to give you my little two cents on the subject since it’s really had me thinking a lot since I saw some videos swirling around for its launch last week.

I’m not one to spend too much money on internet marketing products since I feel I have a really good grasp of how to make money online. But something about this new product really struck a chord with me.

Check out what I found out about it once I purchased the product and dug around inside. I think you’ll find it pretty shocking…

I’m not sure who the brilliant minds are behind this, but we now have the ability to get rid of the “traditional” and boring blog comments and replace them with vibrant and VIRAL Facebook comments!

Sounds cool, huh? Let me explain very quickly…

According to Facebook’s stats, there are over 400 million people signed up for an account. The average user has 130 friends on their account.

So, in theory, if you post a comment on someone’s wall in Facebook, an average of 130 people are going to see it. Now those 130 people have the choice to read the comment and reply. If they were to leave a comment, that opens the door for at least another 130 people to read and respond.

Do you get my drift?

Now if we were to give people the ability to use blogs as our Facebook walls, we’re giving people the ability to spread our work to on average, 130 others.

Think about how awesome it is that 130 people could see the blog post you wrote. Especially if you’re getting less than that many visitors to your blog in the first place?!

This is what happened when I made my first comment using this plugin. With little effort, at LEAST 3 brand new people saw the blog post!

With this new Facebook plugin that just came out for WordPress, with just a couple of clicks, you’ll be able to have Facebook commenting abilities on your blog.

Here’s the link to the plugin (and it’s awesome because it’s free!)

And another reason why traditional blog commenting just sucked…

If I were to leave a comment on your blog and I was expecting a reply, that means I would need to check back very often to that blog post to see if you responded to my comment. Sure you’d love for me to check back all of the time, but that’s just not going to happen all of the time and no one will do that.

With Facebook comments, you’ll be fed any comments that are responded to you straight to either your Facebook account, email or blog.

That sure as hell beats the old school comments!

So from here on out, get the Facebook comments plugin and start putting the thing to use! It’s not only going to spread blog posts virally, you’ll actually see replies you receive from others!

PS – You don’t need a Facebook account to post a comment, so you have NO excuses!

I was commenting on some threads in the Warrior Forum and started answering questions from a couple of newbies just starting out in internet marketing.

We went back and forth a few times in private messaging and they had more questions, so I was just shooting back my best responses from my own experiences.

This is when it really hit me. One of the guys said that he “extremely appreciates the thought out responses I’m giving him” and “WOW, you actually just solved my problem completely!”

They continued to tell me that they were not expecting such a response from someone they’ve never talked to and someone who has experience.

I realized that many marketers don’t like spending the time to genuinely HELP people when they have a question and that most people are shooting themselves in the foot because of it.

That led me to creating the video below and how you could start helping people do the same.

This is something that I have done since day one, so if you’re just starting out or even have been in the game for a while, this will genuinely help you!

How are you liking the new stuff?

Anyways, today I just finished editing this quick video I shot the other day.

In here I’m talking about how I’ve been doing some offline sales stuff on the side. I’ve been doing this for: one, it’s pretty good money and two, it helps to refine my skills as a salesman.

Not only has this offline stuff helped me really sell a bunch of products in-person, but it has also allowed me to become more comfortable selling to people online.

A lot of people have been or still are in these sales types of positions. If you’re not and you feel like you need some help with your online sales, check out the video. I give you some pointers and ways to sharpen your sales skills.

Just remember, sales is not a dirty word. It’s the only way you’ll ever make a living online, so become the best you can at it!

I wrote a check to myself for $100,000.  AHHH!!!!

Unfortunately at this point I don’t have the cashflow to cash it in (unless someone breaks into my house and steals it!)

I just shot a quick video telling why I did this and how it could help get your mind straight in the internet marketing business.

Enjoy!

A couple of weekends ago myself, Matt Wolfe and Josh Bartlett attended Frank Kern’s List Control seminar together at the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego (just about a 5 minute drive from my house).  Let me tell you, that thing was awesome!!

Here are a few cool pictures from the event…

Josh Bartlett, Shoemoney, Me, Matt Wolfe

Birthday boy Frank Kern & Myself

That’s just a couple from a ton of pictures that we got with some really awesome people who attended.

So what’s really cool about going to these seminars anyway?

What a lot of people think when it comes to seminars is all of the content and information they’re going to go off and use in their businesses.

Well that’s a great reason to attend these things, but not always the only reason.

At Frank’s seminar there were a variety of awesome speakers, including Frank himself. You never know exactly what you’re going to get when going to these events, but you always seem to walk away with a brand new way at looking at your business and how you could do things better.

This seminar was no different. After hearing Bill Glazer and Jordan Belfort (The Wolf of Wall Street) speak, my mind was thinking a whole new way. Not only that, but I was pages and pages deep into my custom List Control notebook with my chicken scratch.

Jordan Belfort and Me

Just as you might have thought, the other (and sometimes more important) reason why I love attending seminars is because of the amazing people you can meet. Not only can you meet some of the speakers and big names in the industry, you meet a huge variety of attendees, some of which could turn into potential business partners.

While at the event and after hearing the speakers and talking to some of the attendees, I’ve been able to gather my thoughts and focus on what is most important in my business and what will further me the quickest.

One of my goals for this year and those to come is to attend a variety of seminars so I can accomplish these two things. Not only are you going to gain some “insider” knowledge, you could meet people who have the potential to change your life!

Here are a few more pictures from the List Control seminar…

But it shouldn’t be that way.

So here I am, again, making the promise to myself that I’ll try and write a blog post/post a video at least once a week!

This is what’s on tap right now.  I just filmed a fairly quick video (tons of cool content) that shows how I’ve been advertising with Facebook.

I’m showing you in this video how to get started and why you shouldn’t be afraid of spending lots of money doing it (because it’s dirt cheap!).

Check out the video and let me know what you think in the comments below!

How about it, wanna start with Facebook now? DO IT!

Let me know what you learn along the way because I’m definitely no expert on this stuff!

Imagine how this could jump-start your mailing list, even if you don’t have any subscribers now.

This could even be great for people like me who have a mailing list but are always looking for new people to share our cool tips and tricks with?

This might just be the break of the newest social networking tool out there.  It seems like Twitter marketing messages are losing their touch (but they weren’t that fun anyways).  This could be the newest hot thing out there… especially since you could type more than 140 characters!

Check out this other cool video, I think it could also help jump-start your list building efforts so you could make some good cash online.

Well, that was a nice setting for a video, but even moreso, one heck of a story!

Imagine if you were to stumble on the to same formula… how would it change you life?

When I put Matt’s formula into action, it completely took me up and spun me around. No more day job and no more dreaded alarm clock!

I’m guessing that those are two things that you dread almost everyday, so why don’t you do yourself a favor…

Matt’s got some really cool goodies he’s just handing out: CLICK HERE TO GET THEM NOW

Tons of stuff has changed since that last time we spoke… and luckily all for the better!!

I’ll let the video do the talking below. But in addition to a little of what I’ve been doing, I wanted to share with you a new feature I stumbled upon while searching on Google the other day. This feature will allow you to narrow down fresh and specific sites to whatever niche you want so you could do what you do best… leave comments!!

But in reality, when going to these sites, you’ll be able to leave comments for backlinks, which equal more traffic to your blog or website. So it’s a no brainer! Check it out and let me know what you think below.

ALSO! If you have any other method of how we could use this tool as internet marketers, please leave your thoughts below. It’s really late right now and my brain is kaput right now.

Time for sleep!
