Well who would have believed it; My blog is now just over one year old.

During the incredible roller coaster journey over the last year I have written 75 posts and received virtually exactly 3,500 comments! And before that date I had never written a blog let alone understood how to install and manage one so it has been a big learning curve but an enjoyable one.

When I look at those figures I think - WOW! I did that; of course with a lot of help and encouragement along the way from my many visitors (and many new friends) who I am very grateful to Now I do feel a tad guilty because in recent months I have neglected to find the time to post which has been a big mistake because the reason for my “success” has been entirely down to my personal blog which I started when I enrolled on the Alex Jeffreys’ Internet Marketing Course a year ago. 

Yes, just a year ago I started out as a student of Alex Jeffreys and now the tables have really turned around. As many of my regular visitors know, over the past 6 months or so ,I have been working with Alex as his Operation’s Manager (right-hand man, side kick, gofer … or whatever else you want to call me!). And the only reason that came about was fully embracing the coaching course and putting into practice in a massive way what we as students were taught. Well it worked, and it has ended up with me doing what I am doing now.

But of course it has meant in my new capacity that I have had to spend less time on my own business and online efforts; hence my reason (ok excuse!) for not being as active with my blog as I should be. But come the new year I am going to rectify that. The blog will be one of my main focal points going forward again; to post great educational material and tutorial videos on many things to do with building an online business; and of course all free for everyone.

So those that are just starting out in Internet Marketing and building an online business and don’t know what direction to go in - I know how you feel as I felt the same this time last year. But if you have a look back at my Archive Posts you will learn a lot as I share my experiences along the way and find out the new skills I had to learn to push forward and be successful. 

PS.
So for all the new students who have enrolled on the recently re-opened 

“Alex Jeffreys Limited Coaching  Course”

….. ….. I’d like to say a big WELCOME. I was very likely where many of you are now a year ago. You’re in for a treat; not just the skills and direction you are shown throughout the coaching that lead you to success but also in many unexpected areas as well. I have many new friends as an unepected ”bonus” of the coaching and this more than anything else has made the last year even more worthwhile and special

So roll on the next year. And to all the many new friends I say THANKS for making the past year of “Internet Marketing” such a special one. It’s been fab and I hope you’ve enjoyed it too

Well it has been a while since my last post.

Sorry about that, but as you can probably gather from my announcement in my prior post about my new position as Alex Jeffreys’ Operation’s Manager things have been a bit hectic to say the least,  (Understatement of the year!) I’ve certainly been very busy making sure everything goes smoothly for the new intake of Coaching Students but it has certainly been worthwhile; What a great group of people we have and the new exclusive private Members Forum has been a great place to mix with like minded individuals and an invaluable resource for everyone.

Now short-term this has meant I have had to postpone some of my plans for expanding my own business and put some of my ideas on the back-burner. But this ’pause’ in my rapid progress is to be welcomed as it gives me an opportunity to reevaluate my own plans and goals and update them to reflect the big changes in my situation. Anyone who has been on Alex Jeffeys Coaching Course will realise Organisation, Planning, Setting Goals and Targets, coupled with the right Mindset is key to success in building your online business. This is taught very early on in the Coaching and the students who have grasped this FULLY and IMPLEMENTED it are the ones that will go on to have the most success. Now notice the emphasis on ‘FULLY’ and ‘IMPLEMENTED’ in that prior sentence. You see there is a vast difference between intellectually knowing something to be true, fully agreeing with it but then only paying ‘lip-service’ to it. To succeed you have to make these disciplines part of your everyday habits. Once they are part of your everyday habits then you will begin to make solid progress towards the targets and goals you have set yourself.

Project Pulling Project Newsletter - relaunch

So I am going through a re-planning phase at the moment to accommodate everything that is happening to me now that I couldn’t have anticipated when I first made my plans. One of the first things I want to do is publish the next issue of my newsletter - the Profit Pulling Project.

We are all different and our differences provide contrast in our life’s to make the world a more interesting place. We all have our own personal preferences, likes and dislikes, pet-loves and hates and our personalities encapsulate the choices we make. We would live in a very boring world if everyone saw things exactly the same way and thankfully we don’t.

The fact that two people can disagree doesn’t mean one is right and one is wrong. I love Football (the soccer variety for international readers!) but I fully appreciate that many across the world don’t and like some other sport. In fact another group of people dislike sport with a vengeance. (Now they must be wrong, surely, I mean what is wrong with these people – of course, I jest and I reemphasise that these are just personal choices and these differences amongst us provide the immense choices we all have available to us today).

I used sport in the example above, but each and everyday we make choices in all areas of our life. The choices we make will have a bearing on the direction our life takes and if we manage to succeed or not in whatever pursuit we take up. Some of these are short term choices with likely very little lasting consequences; what I will have for breakfast? Others are more long term; what career choice will I make? However, the choices we make are only one factor in how things will turn out. It is how you approach the choices we all make and the ‘mindset’ you adopt that will be the biggest determinate of success or failure.

In simplistic terms do you have a positive optimistic outlook on life or a negative pessimistic one? If you approach things from a stance of negativity each challenge or hurdle that comes your way will be a major trauma for you. A ‘negatively’ minded person will give up before they achieve their goal. The fact that they ‘fail’ and cannot complete the task at hand re-enforces their mindset and they take the view ‘I told you so. I said I wouldn’t be able to do that and I was right’.

Yippee!

Yesterday I managed to get hold of Mike Filsaime’s Butterfly Marketing Course, version 2.0 for nothing. Well, okay I had to pay $30 shipping charges but so what? Still an unbelievable deal.  It was a no-brainer really.

This is the same course that Butterfly Marketing version 1.0 sold for $2,000 and the new version has been upgraded to include loads of additional material. This is the same course that my mentor Alex Jeffreys purchased a few years ago and comes highly recommended by Alex. If it’s good enough for Alex Jeffreys, it’s good enough for me, LOL.

No seriously, I’m already working through the manuscript that is available online in the Members’ Area and can already see the awesome potential. All my future efforts and projects will be completed by always referencing this powerful manual to make sure I am maximising my time and leveraging my efforts to the greatest effect. The content and strategies are as powerful as that and everyone should use it as a blueprint for how they deliver all content online.  Period. Simple as that.  And that’s from just the manuscript I have read; can’t wait to get the whole packages delivered to my Home :-) 

Now I know there was an almighty mess with the launch and the servers all crashed. Now I am been polite here, LOL, because the launch was an unmitigated disaster plagued with all sorts of problems. However, every cloud has a silver lining. 50,000+ people tried to get only 5,000 copies but as a result of these problems Mike Filsaime has made a commitment that you can take advantage of.

Mike promises that anyone who wants to get a copy in the next 48 hours will get one. He, will make sure he prints additional copies if need be so that nobody who wants one will miss out. Remember, this is a physical product that is delivered to your door so he won’t keep this offer open for ever. 48 hours and that’s it, so ACT NOW

So if you have been slow of the mark or for some reason missed the fact that the launch was even on, then use it to your advantage and go and grab a copy now. You can go to this link below to grab a copy.

Just a brief post today. 

As regular visitors will no doubt tell the Blog looks totally different now than my original one when I started it at the start of the Alex Jeffreys Coaching Course way back at the end of November 2008.

Not got it quite as I wanted yet, but I will be tweaking the layout until I have it exactly as I want it. Let me know what you think.?

As always I appreciate your comments
