Yanik Silver, Director/Y.S.S.
Dear Secret Agent,
Have you ever wondered IF there might just be a group of "'under-the-radar" people making mega bucks online who do NOT speak at the seminars?
Could there be some well-hidden achievers who have truly cracked the code to Internet wealth out there?
The answer is absolutely! But finding them is another story all together...
You see, these Internet "men and women of mystery" don’t go around looking for publicity! They don’t advertise their accomplishments because they don’t need to nor want to. And they are quite content to remain in the shadows and make their money "in the dark", while keeping their mouths shut and their secrets very close to the vest.
At first glance, you would never imagine how successful they are and you probably couldn’t pick them out of a crowd. (Truth is, I’ve found it’s usually the quiet, unassuming people who you least expect are the ones actually making a ton of dough — not the ones shouting it from the roof tops.)
Now since I’m on the "inside" of the Internet marketing world — I’ve been privy to meet many of these true "Underground" online success stories. Usually it’s late into the evening and after I swore to keep everything "off the record" these guys (and gals) reveal exactly how much money they’re raking in from projects that have absolutely nothing to do with "how to make money online".
After hearing this "same story" over and over again I felt like I wanted to explode! I can’t believe so many people have to struggle online while all these regular people are raking it in on the Internet — practically right under their nose.
But being true to my word I’ve never breathed a word about it — until now....
How This All Came About...
A few years ago my friend Dave and I were sitting in a hotel bar having a drink after a conference. Dave was telling me about a recent seminar he attended and how disappointed he was, "It was a total product dump! I don’t know if I even got 10 minutes of content."
"Listen, I realize the speakers sell their product at the end of their presentation", he continued, "But I’m not going to be pitched for one hour straight. It’s ridiculous! And the crazy thing is nearly every one of the speakers has never sold anything else online except ‘how to make money online’ products. I mean come on!...quot;
Well, I had to agree with him. He was right.
Then Dave started up again, "You know what I’d like to see?"
"What?" I replied leaning forward in my chair.
"I want to see real people who are making money online...just like I am. People actually doing it — not just talking about it. Dude, you got the connections. I think your customers would love this. You need to do this and I’ll even volunteer to be your first speaker."
Hmmm...that got me thinking.
Dave was doing well online. He was making six-figures inside his first tiny little niche and also starting to do well with golfers and other niches he’s identified. He fit the part of definitely being an online success story that practically nobody had heard of.
I grabbed a pen and starting jotting down a bunch of names on the back of my Delta boarding stub I had in my pocket. In a half hour the "Underground® Online Marketing Seminar" was born.
That was the easy part...
Now the hard part was actually convincing and coaxing these ‘players’ to share their true insider secrets. You see, money is NOT a motivator for them since almost all of them are financially set. But there had to be something else...
Why Would These "Top-Secret" Internet Success Stories
Agree To Finally Step Forward?
It finally struck me....
They could all learn from each other. That’s it! Many of these underground successes have their own network of friends and colleagues in their own niche marketplaces but they don’t necessarily have all the contacts I have. Why not bring them all together for 3 days?
I would coordinate and organize the whole thing, take them to top restaurants, put them up in a 4-star hotel all at my expense, etc — but the only "catch" for them is they had to agree to share their best secrets with a small, select audience. (I’m not joking when I say I really go all out for the speakers — last year I spent a significant 6-figures to make the event happen.)
Plus, this would give them an opportunity to create new joint venture partners among the group of attendees I brought in at the event.
Once I explained it all — many of them were even more excited about the whole thing than I was. What’s more, they were really thrilled to be able to share and give something back for their success.
I was stunned but it made perfect sense.
To them, it didn’t matter about increased competition. There was plenty of business for everyone. (Truth it, there is an 'abundance mentality' that I’ve seen with the most successful people I know. They aren’t scared of sharing their knowledge because they know the more they give the more they get.)
That’s exactly how the first Underground® Online Seminar was born. Now I really wasn’t planning on doing more. Certainly not after the tremendous amount of work (and expense) that goes into these things. But a couple things changed my mind.
- Attendees were thrilled and raving about the event. Here’s just one comment like this:
"Interestingly I went to The __[removed to protect the guilty]__ Seminar the week after yours as it was close to my home and I had already registered for it before yours…your event was an order of magnitude better, so much so that I left the ______ Seminar after the first half day and requested a full refund. Yes there were some good speakers there, but the attendees at the _____ Seminar seemed to be mostly at a grade school internet marketing level, which was in stark contrast to your graduate school MBA level of many of your attendees. However, the newbies there also learned a lot as the material was easy to digest and enormously useful… Thanks again, I greatly appreciate your work, integrity and character and look forward to attending Underground® II. With everything I have learned directly or indirectly from your event I think you will need to have me be one of your secret presenters for Underground® III."
—Dr. J. Mercola, Mercola.com (World’s #1 most visited natural health website)
[Side note — Mr. Mercola was close in his comment. He is now one of our presenters for Underground® 4]
- I had attendees from the first events coming out of the woodwork telling me their success stories and asking to be part of another 'Underground®'. You’ll be introduced to many of these attendees turned "rogue agents" shortly. Plus, many of the original presenters had so much fun that they wanted to introduce me to the other Internet insiders in their network. (Think "six degrees" of separation and you can see how I was able to scour and uncover some of these practically unreachable successes.)
- The incredible buzz in the Internet community from this event.
- There were some people I’ve met recently that for selfish reasons I want to learn from.
So that’s why I’ve arranged to hold an ALL-NEW group of secret Internet successes and millionaires hostage for 3 days for a complete "debriefing" for you at an undisclosed location in Washington D.C. The "Underground Online Marketing Seminar® 5" will be held on February 20-22, 2009 with a line-up that will never be repeated.
My Strict Selection Criteria...
The thing is, I am friends with pretty much every "Who’s Who" in every corner of the Internet. I had lots of choices and could get almost anybody for this event — but I had a very strict criteria:
- Find relatively unknown people actually making money online who aren’t on every "seminar circuit" pedaling their wares. I didn’t want theory or hype but tried and true verifiable and validated Internet success strategies.
- No one making the bulk of their income from the "Internet World" or selling "How to Make Money". (That means they can’t be a "shovel seller".)
- They had to be able to teach their methods. (Some people are terrific doers but they cannot convey their knowledge into concepts others can use and understand.)
- Their methods had to work and be duplicatable today without being a "super marketer" or "super geek". (Plus, it couldn’t be something that only worked 2, 3 or even 8 years ago when the Internet was just getting started.)
- And finally no B.S. They couldn’t just blow smoke and have no substance.
This is a pretty tall order but just take a look at these confidential profiles for your eyes only...
You’ve Probably Never Heard of Most of These NEW Underground
"Rogue Agents" But Their Results Speak for Themselves:
Rogue Underground Agent #1: Agent Goldeneye Profits AKA
Ryan Allis
Ryan Allis got his first computer when he was 9 years old. Just two years later he was a "computer consultant for hire" on the west coast of Florida earning 5 bucks an hour...
Fast forward about 6 years and Ryan achieves something most entrepreneurs 3 and 4 times his age only dream about: He took his company from $0 to $1 MILLION in sales. But here’s the thing. Ryan did it in one year. His first year.
And that was really just the beginning. Because Ryan’s success took off in a big way from there. I’m talking tens of millions of dollars in annual sales...
Over the past six years, Ryan has built three companies to $2 million or more in annual sales — two as a marketing consultant and one as CEO.
Today, Ryan is the CEO of iContact. If you haven't heard of them, you haven't been paying attention. They're a big player in the email marketing business. They make email communication "point-and-click" simple for thousands of small businesses (and some big businesses) and over 40,000 users.
Ryan's built his company from NOTHING to 140 employees and annual sales of more than $20 MILLION. He was named by BusinessWeek as one of the "Top 25 Entrepreneurs Under 25" in 2005.
And at Underground® 5, Ryan’s going to reveal exactly how he did it... and how you can do it too.
Usually when you hear that "you can do it too" phrase, it’s just marketing hype from some overblown product or system that can’t deliver.
But Ryan Allis is the real deal. And he’s going to walk you through the steps you need to take your business to the next level. Here are just a few things he’s going to reveal:
- How to get on the fast track to your first million. You’ll discover Ryan’s proven 10 step process to take a business from $0 to $1 Million in sales fast.
- How to find, hire and KEEP superstars. Ryan will be the first to tell you that he’s only partly responsible for the huge success of iContact. It’s really his team that makes things happen. And he’s going to spill the beans about how he built such a top-notch team.
- Ready to stop wasting your time and money pursuing "great ideas" that end up not working? You won’t believe how simple it is using the hush-hush "MAR" (Market-Advantages-Return) system that Ryan has developed to help him spot the winners before he even gets started.
- Looking for investors, cash or maybe even venture capital? It’s available IF you know how to create a business plan and present it in a way that actually gets your potential investors excited just to be part of your opportunity. Ryan’s done it and he’ll explain what you need to know to do the same.
- Unlike a lot of "one-man-band" internet entrepreneurs, Ryan has actually built a company. He can walk away anytime and still make money with the systems he’s created. At Underground® 5, you’ll discover his secrets for scaling YOUR business bigger than you probably think is possible (without driving yourself crazy!)
- The BIGGEST (and most profitable) lessons learned building an online company from $0 to $20 million in sales (Ryan did it before most kids even move out of their parents’ house).
- How to launch a company from scratch, with very little money. Remember, Ryan started with nothing and he was only 11. He’ll reveal what he’s learned about bootstrapping your way to success.
- Ryan’s real motivation for all of the success he’s creating. This guy is out to change the world… and you’re going to discover his plan for doing it. (Side note: Nearly all the biggest success stories I’ve personally studied have a big "reason why" beyond just the money!)
I hate to say it — but he beat me to the millionaire mark by over a decade. But after learning how he created so much success so quickly... let’s just say I’ll be there taking notes.
I predict your access at Underground® 5 would be worth it just to hear from this guy. But he’s just the beginning...
Rogue Underground Agent #2: Agent Mommypenny AKA
Carrie Wilkerson
For most people, being in extreme debt, overweight by 110 pounds, and having 4 kids to take care of might be enough obstacles to keep business success well out of their reach.
But Carrie Wilkerson isn’t most people. Because she’s discovered how to take those "obstacles" and live life and do business on her terms... anyway. She’s overcome the debt, lost the weight and built 4 online and offline businesses to a combined 7-figures in record time. And by the way, she doesn’t think it’s an EITHER/OR situation between taking care of the kids and/or her business. In fact, she’s built her life and business around being a great mom.
But for some reason, she usually does all of this... without shoes on. That’s why they call her, "The Barefoot Executive."
Carrie is a serious firecracker. I’ve gotten to know her as part of my exclusive MasterMind group and if you’ve ever wanted to meet an eternal "glass-half-full" type of person... (with huge results to prove that way of thinking actually works), you will not want to miss Carrie’s appearance at Underground® 5. Here’s a quick list of some of the things she’s going to reveal:
- The secrets of SPEED! Carrie hit the six-figure in her first 10 months and doubled that within 2 more months! (and now the 7-figure mark) Remember — that’s all while working part time and raising 4 kids. (Many struggling entrepreneurs never even hit the six-figure mark, but Carrie did it… with part-time effort, while juggling 4 kids and 3 other businesses!) How did she do it? Carrie believes FAST is better than slow and painful and she’ll prove it to you.
- How to stay focused when you’ve got a huge list of things that need your attention.
- You’ll discover one of the big secrets for Carrie’s quick success. She calls it her, "Take Action Mindset." Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Once you hear Carrie explain it, you’ll realize exactly how she’s able to accomplish so much (and how you can do the very same thing!). She’s probably one of the 3 best implementer I’ve met. She’ll make your head spin with how much she gets done! (But instead of being overwhelmed with too much to do — she’ll explain how you can become a productivity dynamo too!)
- How to go from IDEAS to INCOME... fast. You’ll get to pull back the curtain and discover Carrie’s tools for getting this done (the right things) in record time.
- A proven blueprint to become an "Overnight Authority By Design." In just 6 short months, Carrie went from "unknown" status to a nationally recognized expert and in demand speaker.
- List building secrets that work FAST. Carrie started with a list of zero. 12 months later her double opt-in list topped 26,000... and she did it all without ONE CENT of paid traffic. (Today a few months later it’s already 55,000+ and still growing like crazy!) If you’ve ever tried to build a list from scratch, you already know just how amazing this is. At Underground® 5, you’ll discover just how Carrie did it including her big-time secret of using ‘viral movies’. You’ll love this!
- The real secrets of using Twitter and other social media for meaningful conversations and connections with your list. A lot of people will tell you to use Social Media (you know Twitter, Facebook, etc) but they are only interested in broadcasting 1-way messages...that doesn’t work! Carrie will talk about how she’s built up thousands of followers who really and truly connect to her...and why that makes all the difference in the world.
- How the "Barefoot Executive" supercharged her business to go from six-figures to SEVEN figures in 2008.
Don’t let Carrie’s sweet smile and gentle words fool you. Carrie Wilkerson is a business powerhouse from top to bottom — but she’s still the tip of the iceberg...
Rogue Underground Agent #3: Agent You Only Launch Twice AKA Greg Poulos
Greg Poulos has pretty much always had the "entrepreneurial bug" in him. As a kid, he sold tickets to a haunted house in his basement. Then he moved on to selling adventure game hints from tiny classified ads.
Fast forward a few years and Greg became what he calls a "highly paid slave" selling coffee mugs and t-shirts online during the "dot com" boom.
But back in 2001, he decided to go into business with his father, a 30+ year stock trader. For the next 3 years, Greg tried to use his Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing to make it big. But it didn’t happen... nothing but struggle.
In fact, Greg pretty much worked really hard to go around in circles until 2004... that’s the year he started learning from people who were actually making money as marketers.
By 2005, Greg’s learning paid off and he hit six-figures for the first time. And then something amazing happened: Greg discovered product launches. And boy did they work… In fact, Greg’s 1 week product launch in March of 2006 did more sales than his entire business did in all of 2005. More in a week than the entire year before!
And that was just the beginning. Because in the last few years, he’s made major waves in his niche.
Now as a true "Underground Agent," Greg asked me to keep his company name anonymous (you’ll have to be at Underground® 5 to hear it). Let’s just say he’s a major player in the stock trading education market.
Here’s a quick rundown of some of the things he’s going to bring in his bag of tricks:
- How Greg used RECURRING product launches to create over $10 MILLION in sales from those releases alone during the past 3 years. (Previously at Underground® we had Agent Six-in-Seven AKA Jeff Walker when he truly was Underground — but Greg is showing the power of the 'hands-off' recurring launch.)
- How Greg discovered the power of the RE-LAUNCH to boost his profits with little or no effort on his part since all the sequences are done. Rinse. Repeat! Here’s a quick example: In 2006, Greg relaunched the same product a total of 4 times. Then he re-launched it one more time in early 2007. Same product, same JV partners, pretty much the same email list. The funny thing is, the 4th launch was even better than the 2nd…
- The Underground strategies and techniques that helped Greg go from standing in the unemployment line to standing in the "millionaire line" in just 4 years.
- You’ll discover how Greg uses "integrated media buying" during his product launches to expand his buying universe and bring in new leads outside his pool of affiliates. (This is a big deal because most marketers very quickly hit a ceiling of just recycling leads/prospects between themselves.)
- "Proven Tips for the Care and Feeding of Happy and Healthy Affiliates": Discover why Greg focuses so much on how to market to affiliates. You’ll get his tips for taking care of your affiliates and actually making marketing (of your business) FUN for them. It’s a win/win and Greg will show you how he does it.
- Despite Greg’s huge success with product launches, as a business model, he thinks it’s a really dumb way to go. He’ll explain why and walk you through his blueprint for combining product launches with rock solid business models to create HUGE results.
Rogue Underground Agent #4: Agent New Media Never Dies AKA Susan Wilson Solovic
Susan Wilson Solovic is hardly a stranger to success. And, unlike many 'underground' success stories, she didn’t begin her entrepreneurial journey in a cramped one bedroom apartment (like yours truly)... She’s been a dynamo pretty much from day 1.
Here’s just a shortlist from her official bio:
"...served on the National Women's Business Council which counsels the President, Congress and the SBA on issues impacting women business owners. She was named one of the Most Influential Women in St. Louis (2004) by the St. Louis Business Journal and received the 2004 YWCA's Special Business Leader award for Entrepreneurial Success. In 2006 she received the Distinguished Leader award from Southeast Missouri State University and in 2000 she was named a Distinguished Alumni from Columbia College. Solovic previously served on the John F. Kennedy School of Government Women's Leadership Board at Harvard University. On behalf of SBTV.com Solovic accepted the Stevie Award for the Most Innovative Company up to 100 employees. The Stevie Awards are considered the Oscars of business."
But what I’m excited to bring Susan in is for her newest venture SBTV.com.
Susan is the CEO of SBTV.com — Small Business Television.
Think about the history of broadcast media. We originally started with the Big 3 (NBC, ABC, CBS). Then Fox got in the game. Then Cable splintered the market. Now it’s a million websites. What’s so exciting is YOU can create your own media and truly compete against all the big-boys in broadcast. But what’s even more exciting is when you create an online broadcast media for a specific niche in practically no-time and make multiple streams of revenue from it.
SBTV.com is the first and only video news and information destination site for America’s small businesses. She’s dealing with some serious traffic numbers. Just take a look at these stats:
That’s 1.1 MILLION unique users in a month. And you know what makes these numbers even more impressive? These numbers are from 2005! That’s just 1 year after SBTV.com was launched starting from scratch. She keeps testing and tweaking and improving her results to share with you the latest insights. Take a look at the average time a viewer stayed on her site in 2005… 17 minutes. Now that’s already ahead of most other portal sites — but guess how long visitors stay on SBTV.com these days? ...the AVERAGE visitor time is 30 minutes!
Susan is bringing a huge amount of value to small business owners out there. And she’s doing it in a way that’s never been done before. In fact, what Susan is doing at SBTV.com is so innovative, she actually won the 2008 AT&T Innovator Award.
At Underground® 5, she’s going to give you the straight scoop on how she’s turned SBTV.com into such a big success... almost overnight. Here are just a few of the things she’ll be talking about and how to cash-in on this opportunity:
- The truly innovative marketing opportunities that SBTV.com offers to its advertisers. This goes way beyond the typical, "pay $X to put your ad here" type of setup. We’re talking things like traveling studios/conference partnerships, small business awards programs, audience polls, customized productions and many more. At Underground® 5, you’ll discover just how profitable innovation can really be.
- How to make the "advertiser supported" revenue model work. Advertisers are after something very specific... and SBTV.com knows how to deliver it.
- A crash course in how to develop strategic partnerships that are win-win. There’s a good reason that Susan was named one of the most influential women in St. Louis (2004) by the St. Louis Business Journal...
- What it takes to build a media company from $0 in sales up to $3 Million in less than 4 years. You’ll hear Susan explain how she built such a strong foundation so quickly.
- How to position yourself as an expert... very quickly, Susan is a popular media guest on radio and television programs across the country—programs like ABC Money Matters, Fox News' Good Day New York and local radio and television programs across the country.
I could probably stop with our first four guests — but we’re still not even close to done with this amazing line-up. Next up...
Rogue Underground Agent #5: — Agent Live and Let Die Well AKA Mike Geary
Four years ago, Mike Geary wouldn’t have known a salesletter if it hit him right in the face. (Ask him yourself, he really had no idea what the word meant. And he knew nothing about marketing.)
Fast forward to 2008 and Mike’s sites (one of which is Truthaboutabs.com) is on track to do $4 MILLION in revenue... with zero employees.
He’s gone from working a full-time job and dabbling in marketing... to going full-time as a marketer, spending most winter days skiing in the Rockies. The rest of the year he works from wherever he feels like going.
And because he’s a Maverick Business Adventures® member, I’ve persuaded him to come to Underground® 5 and reveal exactly how he did it.
Now I’ve gotta say, I’m big on living the internet lifestyle. Working when you want, where you want. I’ve been there, done that, am enjoying every minute of it. But Mike’s "speed of light" journey to success really got my attention and his incredible lifestyle.
To go from complete newbie to pulling in $4 Million (with one tiny eBook) is HUGE. To give you an idea about just how fast Mike did all this, here’s a snapshot of the past few years:
Year | What’s Mike Doing? | What’s Mike Making? |
2004 | Starts working online... | $0 |
2005 | Makes first sale... working day/night to learn marketing. |
$0 Profit |
2006 | Still working full time job, but considering quitting. |
Earns $15,000 marketing online. |
2007 | Quit job. Mike’s a free man. | $650,000 |
2008 | Skiing in the Rockies | On track for $4 Million |
Here are just a few of Mike’s "fast track" secrets he’s bringing to Underground® 5:
- The exact strategy Mike uses to get over 5 MILLION unique visitors (per month)... and that's just to one of his websites.
- The Underground SEO Tactics Mike accidentally discovered to dominate Google® for dozens of high competition keywords. (If you’ve ever done any research in the health and fitness niche, you know just how much competition there is.)
- You’ll hear Mike’s strategies for dominating the Clickbank ratings as a publisher—and he’ll reveal how he uses them to gain the attention of thousands and thousands of affiliates. (In case you are note aware of it — Clickbank.com is a huge marketplace of 150,000+ affiliates looking to sell your product if you know how to get it in front of them.)
- If you think selling eBooks is a thing of the past, just wait till you hear Mike explain the system he’s using to sell between 10 and 12 THOUSAND of his eBooks... per month.
- Despite all of his success, Mike’s 100% dedicated to making sure his business never runs his life. During his presentation at Underground® 5, you’re going to hear how he runs his multimillion dollar business with ZERO employees. He has one virtual assistant... that’s it.
- And if you’ve heard that the "money’s in the list," then you’ll definitely want to hear Mike reveal how he’s managed to build his fitness newsletter list to a whopping 360,000 subscribers.
And there’s still more to come...
Rogue Underground Agent #6: On Her Majesty’s Concealed Service AKA Tim Schmidt
Tim Schmidt has been a member of my Millionaire MasterMind group for the last two years where I’ve watched his business boom. When he first applied to be part of the group, I wasn’t sure he’d fit. His marketplace was people who carry concealed guns.
But once I heard what he was doing... and the size of the results he revealed...I was impressed.
When Tim started taking me through the inner workings of his million dollar business, it became pretty clear that it is one well-oiled machine... (would you expect any less from a former Engineer?)
But instead of just putting up a website and creating a bunch of products to sell, Tim Schmidt did something a lot more powerful (and as it turns out way more profitable).
He created an entire ASSOCIATION for his niche. And the results have been huge. (Side note: I’ve only ever heard one other person every talk about creating your own Association and quite frankly it didn’t hold a candle to the way Tim covers it. This is one underground opportunity that you won’t hear anywhere else or in some rehashed eBook.
Fact is, Tim is probably one of the most methodically persistent guys I’ve ever met. He’s tried a lot of stuff that didn’t work. And he just keeps getting up and stepping up to the plate.
If you’ve never looked into just how profitable an Association can be, you will definitely want to be at Underground® 5 to hear Tim reveal some numbers. The day he started the U.S.C.C.A. (United States Concealed Carry Association) is the day his business took off.
Here are just a few of the things you’ll hear him reveal:
- His amazing flow-chart system that makes it simple to find the perfect niche for your own association. (Heck, this flowchart practically does ALL the work.)
- How to "Read Your Prospects Minds" when deciding upon membership or product pricing.
- How to build a million dollar business without selling high priced products. All of the marketing experts will tell you that you need high priced products with huge margins to make any money online. But I think you can count the number of times Tim’s offered a product to his members that was over $75 on 2 fingers of your left hand. He just doesn’t do it. Most of his stuff is between $17 and $47... You’ll hear how he keeps his prices low and still pulls in big bucks.
- How to crank out high quality products fast. On average, Tim is launching at least one new product a month. And all of it is top notch—high quality. He’ll take you through the system he uses to do it.
- How to use "personality marketing" to drive sales. Tim’s got a rock solid relationship with his list. And it’s based on a few key principles he considers non-negotiable. You’ll discover what those are and how to use them to improve the results you get from your list. (Hmm... this must work because Tim retains his members for an average of 19 months. If you are doing any continuity in your business you have to hear this!)
- Simple ways to "know your numbers." Now granted, Tim’s a former engineer, so he’s into numbers. But to see the simple spreadsheets he uses to make his business and marketing decisions no-brainers... Some marketers I know could double or triple their results by doing this. And Tim’s got the process down pat. (It's kinda like a geek crystal ball.)
I don’t know anyone else who is doing this successfully and teaching it. Tim publishes Concealed Carry Magazine. It’s a 60-80 page magazine sent to all his members just about every 8 weeks (yes, it’s a REAL, high quality, glossy magazine). It’s packed with high quality content and highly targeted direct response ads. There are so many benefits to a magazine it’s crazy. Everything from the authority it gives you in the marketplace, access to joint ventures, ad revenue (your own or sold space), free content, prestige and more! Once again the place you’ll hear this is right here at the Underground® 5.
Rogue Underground Agent #7: — Mr. X [Location Classified]
Many of my Underground® events have featured a "Mr. X"... Someone SO Underground that they simply refuse to allow their identity to be made public. And the same thing is going to happen for Underground® 5.
This year, we’ve "Mr. X" is a huge player on the social media scene and the CPA networks. We’re talking like $100,000.00 a day huge. Mr. X. plays in a very large sandbox... and he’s gotten the blueprint for success so well documented... it’s pretty much paint-by-number. Well, it’s actually is "paint by the numbers."
Due to the classified nature of Mr. X, here’s a very short list of what he’s bringing. You’ll have to be in your seat at Underground® 5 to get the full story. Sorry.
By claiming your seat, you’ll get your chance to learn things like:
- How to "run with the big boys" and not get killed. Mr. X. knows what he’s doing in what is one of the most cut-throat worlds out there: CPA (cost per action) networks. In that world, it’s all about the numbers. And if you don’t know how to create the big numbers that get attention... it’s pretty much game over. You don’t get another chance.
- Cutting edge tech tools that truly take the guessing out of the CPA game. If you think the world of CPA is confusing and intimidating... it’s probably because you have no idea what kinds of tools these guys have guiding their decisions. Amazing stuff.
- A step-by-step blueprint to select your offer, research the traffic, launch your campaign, test/track/tweak, and ramp up your results into the stratosphere. I told you Mr. X had it down to a "paint by the numbers" system...
- How Mr. X creates a click-through-rate on his ads that’s about 100x better than the average. (You won’t believe what kind of profit that creates...)
- Why "find a need and fill it" will get you killed. And what Mr. X. does instead to max out his profits.
- BIG SECRET: How Mr. X has nearly 50% of the email addresses of users on Facebook (seriously). This is so hush-hush we’ll have to turn off the cameras here. It’s not anything illegal or gray — he’s simply created some amazing Facebook applications that users spread like wildfire. I can’t reveal much more than this — but this one secret is probably going to be worth 10x your ticket price.
- And a whole lot more… In fact, due to Mr. X’s request to remain absolutely anonymous, he had strict limits on the amount of information I can let leak out... And this is it.
I just convinced another one of my MasterMind members to step forward, Matt S. This guy is super low-key and ultra secretive about what he does with domains. He’s developed an incredible system for truly profiting from “virtual real estate”. He has a sweet autopilot set-up where he automatically buys domains and then flips them for MAJOR profits. Or he actually develops high-trafficked domains he’s gotten into automatic cash machines. This doesn’t even cover a fraction of what Matt will be uncovering – but I think that’s all I can leak.
Now is this an incredible line-up or what? But as they say on late night TV infomercials... "Wait there’s more..."
For this event I’m super excited to be able to bring in a really high profile keynote speaker...
Keynote Speaker:
Bob Parsons, CEO Go Daddy
Bob is the founder and CEO of Go Daddy Group Inc., home to the #1 domain name registrar worldwide (3 times as large as the nearest competitor—they’re registering or renewing one domain name every second.)
Go Daddy was named the fastest-growing privately held technology company (ranked # 8 overall) on the Inc. 500 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Privately Held Companies in 2004. And they’ve won more awards than I even have room to list here.
Bob’s built his success by following a single, extremely powerful core principle:
Provide low-priced, feature-rich products
combined with the highest levels of customer service...
For Go Daddy, this is not an empty slogan—it’s the rock solid foundation of the entire company. And by the results Bob’s created over the past 10 years... it really pays off.
The growth has been nothing short of amazing...
Here are just a few quick facts:
- Go Daddy is #1domain name registrar with a sizable 45 percent market share of new active domain name registrations worldwide.
- They have more than 3 million active hosting accounts and are the largest hosting provider in North America according to Netcraft.
- Go Daddy is one of the largest paid email providers.
- Go Daddy holds nearly 66 percent market share of new SSL certificates (October, 2008 Netcraft Report). Go Daddy is the 2nd largest SSL provider in the world.
At Underground® 5, Bob’s going to reveal some of the biggest reasons for Go Daddy’s "off the charts" growth including things like:
- Bob is fanatical about customer service. He’s got to be, dealing with over 6 million customers. And that means absolutely none of his customer service operation is outsourced. It’s all done in house by his own call centers. You’ll hear just how much that single decision has contributed to the huge growth of Go Daddy.
- How to take one success and leverage it into even bigger results. If you don’t already know it, Go Daddy does a lot more than just register domain names. In fact, Bob’s built out his product offerings to over 45 complimentary products he can offer his customers. Do you know what that can do to your profits?
- How to keep a team of 2,000+ employees moving towards the BIG goal... and actually like what they’re doing. Bob’s got a huge team that makes Go Daddy what it is. And the amazing part is, they love what they’re doing. In fact, The Go Daddy Group, Inc. was ranked one of "The Best Places to Work" in the metro Phoenix area by The Business Journal for the fifth consecutive year. And that’s based on surveys from the employees themselves!
- Unlike many CEOs of multi-million dollar corporations, Bob "gets it" when it comes to direct marketing. (This really got my attention...) That’s how he built his first tech company back in 1984 (the one he sold to Intuit for $64 Million in 1994). He was sending out about 6 million pieces of mail… per month. At Underground® 5, you’ll discover what Bob’s learned over his 20+ year
To say I’m pumped to have Bob Parsons at Underground® 5 would be an understatement (I’ve been trying really hard to get him onboard for 4 years!)
(Back by Popular Demand!)
Keynote Speaker #2: Tony Hsieh, CEO Zappos.com
Tony Hsieh is the CEO and Director of Zappos.com — the number one footwear retailer on the web with over $800M in sales last year.
But Zappos.com isn’t Tony’s first (or only) big success. A few years earlier, he started a business called LinkExchange. He calls it a "side business" that he started out of his apartment. I’ll take his word for it… but I don’t know too many "side businesses" that get sold to Microsoft for a whopping $265 million. But Tony’s done it.
And ever since coming onboard at Zappos.com, he’s doubled sales every year since 1999. Here’s a look back at exactly how it played out:
1999 Sales: Almost nothing
2000 Sales: $ 1.6 million
2001 Sales: $ 8.6 million
2002 Sales: $ 32 million
2003 Sales: $ 70 million
2004 Sales: $184 million
2005 Sales: $370 million
2006 Sales: $597 million
2007 Sales: $800 million
2008 Sales: Over $1 Billion Dollars!
What’s Tony’s secret? It’s one word.
SERVICE
His goal is simple: Make his customers’ lives as easy as possible. That means no-hassle returns (he guarantees his stuff for 365 days) and free shipping (back & forth) on everything...
Here’s one example of just how serious Tony is about treating his customers like Gold:
Every new Zappos.com employee hired in the corporate office has to go through 4 WEEKS of Customer Loyalty training... That means the new employee spends 20 full days answering phones in the call center—before they ever actually begin the job they were hired to do.
For Tony, customer service isn't just a department — it is the entire company.
At Underground® 5, Tony will be sharing some of his most powerful secrets during his keynote for keeping his customers coming back again and again. The very same ones he uses to keep Zappos.com way ahead of the competition.
Here are just a few things he’ll cover:
- How Tony put his "fanatical" customer service ideas into practice and helped Zappos.com capture a full 20% of a 3 BILLION dollar market.
- The strategies Tony uses to make sure that 65% of his business on any given day is from repeat customers.
- Why Tony would rather not spend his money on marketing… and the one place he chooses to put his money instead. (This tip is really too powerful to ignore. Sadly, most businesses simply won’t do it…)
- Why Tony thinks "cheap and efficient" is not a smart way to run a company. He’ll explain what he’d rather focus on to keep the revenue flowing (and growing).
- How to maintain the culture and feel of a small company (where people actually LOVE to work) even when your growth is taking off like a rocket. Tony’s an expert at this… and you’ll hear his biggest tips for applying his ideas to your business.
- How to achieve a 6-to-1 minimum return on your advertising buys and more.
Yes, Zappos.com is probably a little out of the league of our typical attendee — but that’s exactly why you want to pay close attention and apply some of these amazing growth strategies to your business.
Now in addition to all these presenters, you’ve got the "Rogue Agents" from the last few years. Many of these guys and gals have told me they absolutely want back in to learn from the new presenters, network and hang out just like they did last year.
Plus, I wouldn’t be surprised if a bunch of my Internet marketing buddies (who also happen to be world-class experts) will be in attendance to once again make this THE most exclusive learning, networking and ‘deal making’ event. (I don’t know who will show up this year but previous high-profile attendees were Dan Kennedy, Jonathan Mizel, Jim Edwards, Marlon Sanders, Jeff Johnson, Jeff Walker, Stephen Pierce, Bill Glazer, Perry Marshall, Rosalind Gardner, Joel Comm, Declan Dunn, Stephen Mahanney, Willie Crawford, Mike Filsaime, Russell Brunson, Michel Fortin, Michael Holland, Bart Baggett, Phil Wiley, Kevin Wilke, Andrew Fox, and many others who came to learn & network — not to B.S. in the hallways.)
And Then There’s Me...
Now in case you need a refresher on my story. With a 'silly' idea at 3 o’clock in the morning and after only a few short months I've achieved the ultimate Internet "fantasy" of making a lot of money from a simple web site that runs itself virtually on autopilot (and no, it didn't have anything to do with sleazy porn sites or selling "get rich quick" information).
My first web site, Instant Sales Letters, is responsible for bringing me a hefty six-figure income. (Not bad considering it takes me a couple hours a week to look after and I run the whole thing out of the corner of my basement.) And that’s just one of my dozen+ automatic oil wells.
Now I’m also going to be presenting brand new information I’ve never shared before in public. Previously, I covered for the first-time how to sell ultra-high priced and high ticket information products and services, Mindmapping, leveraging successful products — and the audience was stunned...
In fact, here’s just one success story of a fresh beginner who came all the way from India who applied what I shared at the Underground to earn $70,000.00+ in 45 days starting from scratch...
"Just to let you know that the best product in the similar category which is no 1 in Amazon sells only for 48 dollars and we have completely sidelined them using those simple techniques I learnt in your seminar."
— A. Vishwanath ("Vish"), Mumbai, India
And here’s the update we got from Vish 1 ½ months later...
"Just to let you know I grossed 70k in the last 45 days. Now I am a bit tired and will take a rest for a while but I has been amazing 45 days for me grossing 70k in just 45 days. Your seminar was a real eye-opener. Truly amazing....
"Once again thanks Yanik, and if there is anything I can do for you let me know. I owe you a lot simply because your seminar gave me the option to exercise financial freedom."
For Underground® 5, I’ll be letting you peek inside the world of the Maverick Entrepreneur. That’s where more money, more fun and more giving back all come together for a truly amazing ride through life. I’ll also be focusing on cutting edge stuff for getting unlimited testimonials (trust me, it’s a beautiful thing) and proven strategies for using celebrities to boost your profits.
And much more I cannot even hint at because it’s top-secret until the event.
The Underground® is Truly Different...
Frankly, it was a gargantuan task to locate, uncover, convince and coax an *ALL-NEW* group "under the radar" Internet marketers to come forward and pull back the curtain for the Underground Online Marketing Seminar® 5. That’s why I have a strong hunch this will sell-out quickly (AGAIN!).
Now in case you’re thinking this is another thinly veiled "product-dump" seminar — you’re barking up the wrong tree!
It would be impossible!
You see, each of the presenters aren’t selling 'how to make money' information. There’s no possible way this could turn into a "pitch fest" because frankly, many of them don’t have products to pitch nor do they have an ulterior motive. You’re going to get pure gold without any of the fluff or filler. Fair disclosure: some of the presenters, at my urging and coaxing, are in the process of creating resources and tools because of their unique approach and since there is nothing else out there like it. Translation: yes, there will be some value-added resources which I fully support. In fact, I'm a firm believer in continuing education and I personally spend over $50,000.00 on my own education. (But trust me, the information presented is anything but a "teaser" for a more expensive program so you can even leave your wallet at home if you like.)
Because you'll walk away with...
Straight From the Trenches No Fluff Info
Now on the other hand, don't expect a carefully scripted or polished speech. Look, they're simply going to give you the straight, unvarnished truth without a 'dog and pony' show.
In fact, several of the presenters have already warned me that they will need to turn off the cameras and the microphones so they can reveal 'off-the-record' information that don’t want to be recorded. Yes that does mean I will be taping this event but am not sure if or when I’ll be releasing tapes. Plus, if you plan on waiting for the tapes — realize I may make parts of the heavily edited and censored tapes available later on (or possibly not at all) but only in extremely limited quantities. That means the only way to get full disclosure is to get here in person!
Underground® IV — Sold Out!
All sorts of offline and online 'celebrity' marketers were hidden incognito in their 'spy' attire. (Several I personally know are verifiable, bona fide millionaires and multi-millionaires.) Attendees came from the far reaches of the globe including the UK, Canada, Mexico, Italy, Romania, Iceland, Sweden, New Zealand, Spain, and even Japan and Australia.
Here's what else. I'm taking another extraordinary step to make sure our guest presenters really lay their cards on the table with the...
Now I can tell you one thing for sure — most of these guys and gals are super competitive. That means, they all tried to outdo one another vying for "the crown."
The first year, this top prize of a $10,000.00 charity check went to Jeff Johnson, agent "Search Engine Voodoo" for what he shared on Blogs, RSS feed and Search Engine Optimization.
At Underground® II — Tim Carter agent "Conent is King Kaching!" stole the show and was awarded the title. He gave the audience loads of new information on earning money with AdSense and his "long tail" content theory.
At Underground® III — Jermaine Griggs "Community Commando" won the title hands down. His techniques for building community and automating everything were simply too strong...even though he was the final speaker to go.
Here’s Jermaine Griggs being presented the $10,000 charity check by Peter Graves (from Mission Impossible) and the director of the Y.S.S.
At Underground® IV — ...unfortunately for you, the Winner at Underground® IV just happened to be Mr. X #1 and Mr. X #2. They absolutely BLEW everyone away. But the only way they would show up was if the cameras were off for their entire presentation. Their secrets are safe with the folks who got a seat for Underground® IV.
Who knows who’ll step up to claim the title for Underground® 5? But you’ve got to BE there to see it...
Okay, now let me share a few comments from people who experienced previous Underground events, so that you can see if this is really for you...

THANK YOU !!!!...by the way I also started a forced continuity program that has 381 members at $30 a month. [That’s $11,430.00/month in ongoing revenue and an extra $137,160.00 per year.]"

"Not to mention all the amazing ideas I have now. I'm tweaking all of my websites and conversions are already rising (by a lot!). Additionally, all the amazing information that Jeff Johnson provided has already started bringing me more traffic!...Needless to say, I'm coming to the next one ;) "
— Anik Singal, AffiliateClassroom.com
"The difference is the "underground" speakers at Yanik's are silently making a killing online and Yanik makes sure his seminar guests leave with the knowledge to do the same. The best part of the event (for me) is the incredible networking. Opportunities you get with the top marketers from around the world — and who are there as attendees! (that should give you a hint as to the quality of this event)"
— Mark Braunstein, Founding Partner — ContentDesk.com
— Mike Denison, South Jordan, UT
— Michael Lovitch, Founder, The Hypnosis Network
"Thank you for the incredible added value and the wonderful experience, not to mention the generosity of spirit of the presenters who gave of themselves after hours, to answer endless questions from the new kids on the block!"
— Patricia Reed, Coffs Harbour, NSW Australia
"My experience was exceptional. I traveled to this event with an expectation and a loosely assembled idea of why I was going. I left five days later with my expectations more than fulfilled and a direction as to what I must do next and how I will do that. I have committed to attending the Underground® Online Seminar in 2007."
— Dan Hager, Sooke, BC, Canada
"I came home with endless pages of little things I can do to skyrocket my current businesses. I have already implemented a few of these ideas and seen my email responses increase, my AdSense earnings increase, and my sales increase — not by millions, or even thousands, of dollars (hey, it's been 2 weeks) but by enough to know that the trip from the UK was most definitely worth it.
"Thanks Yanik for searching out these great "agents", and a huge thank you to the speakers themselves, who not only revealed valuable insider information about their businesses, but who were also happy to share with people one-to-one when they had left the stage and throughout the weekend.
Needless to say, I signed up for both the Underground UK and Underground® III in 2007 before I left."
— Lisa Hartwell — Voiceover, Broadcaster and Writer — Plymouth, UK
— Stacey Hylen, Australia
— Vickie Meek, Central Point, OR
— Ron Romano, President Automated Marketing Systems
There were so many ideas that I can’t even go into detail here because I don’t think I have enough time...So if you are skeptical about coming here I would say just take the chance and you won’t be disappointed.

And here’s what Super Affiliate marketer, Rosalind Gardner had to say about her experience at the Underground® in her newsletter...
But this year not only am I stepping up the number of speakers and presenters but I’m also pulling out all the stops to make sure that Underground® 5 is an unforgettable experience for you all around — that’s why you can get a chance to meet a celebrity from the world of 007, James Bond...
CELEBRITY APPEARANCE
Come meet the actor who played the most famous spy agent 007 from MI6, James Bond. In the past we’ve brought in Verne Troyer (AKA "Mini Me") from the Austin Powers movies, Carlos Bernard (AKA Tony Almeida) from 24 and Peter Graves from the hit TV show "Mission Impossible")
This year we are bringing in George Lazenby, who played 007, in the Bond file "On Her Majesty’s Secret Service". This film was one of the highest grossing in 1969 when it appeared.
When you sign up immediately you’ll get the chance
to have a one-on-one photo with you and George Lazenby
AKA "Bond...James Bond"
Only the early sign-ups are guaranteed a private one-on-one photo. This is just one more reason to make sure you get in before the final seats are gone!
And don’t forget about the special Grand Prize 1 lucky attendee will win...
1 Lucky Attendee Will Win the Ultimate 007 Driving Experience:
You’ll get a day driving Yanik’s personal Aston Martin, touring the world-famous Spy museum and a ½ day consult with Yanik.
Value: $10,000.00+
In fact, the vehicle is nearly its own character in each Bond movie. If you’re the winner you’ll get to drive my personal Aston Martin V8 Vantage. That’s right, I’ll flip you the keys and we’ll jump into this hand-built sport car together. Press the crystal ignition button and you’ll be rewarded with the roaring engine springing to life. (I’ve had a custom-exhaust added so the sound is even better.)
The V8 Vantage has been called one of the world's most beautiful cars: elegant, yet with a controlled aggression; perfectly proportioned, with a low, purposeful stance; modern, yet incorporating classic Aston Martin design cues. Quite literally people will be staring at you as you drive on our mission including the Spy Museum in D.C.
Now before we wrap this up I have to mention...
This Particular Event is Positively NOT for Everybody
It is FOR YOU if are already doing something online in one way or another. If that’s the case, then I can promise you the new information revealed here will be responsible for at least an extra six-figure revenue stream or addition to your business. It’s an absolute no-brainer and shoe-in! (Unless you course, you have a 'know-it-all', 'seen-it-all' attitude. Or you like to whine and complain to get negative attention. In that case — do NOT show up.)
Now it is also FOR YOU if you are an Internet newbie but very, very serious about building a profitable business online. This is a golden opportunity to be provided with a true shortcut and roadmap from multiple sources who have all "done it". If you recall there were several raw beginners who showed up and made significant progress (and revenues) by being here.
At my last four sold-out Underground® events, all sorts of offline and online 'celebrity' marketers. (Several I personally know are verifiable, bona fide millionaires and multi-millionaires.) All of them attended on their own dime for one simple reason…to hear what these "Real World" Underground successes are doing online. Plus, this unique event’s premise was so exciting that even Dan Kennedy showed up as an attendee (not a speaker).
Plus, attendees came from the far reaches of the globe. They came in from the UK, Canada, Mexico, Italy, Romania and even Japan and Australia. Actually Affiliate marketing and Mini-Site expert, Phil Wiley, from Australia, said this in his newsletter: "...This is first seminar exciting enough to lure me to America in the past 4 years." (And he came back for the next Underground® as well.)
What Kind of Hefty Price Tag Should This Go For?
I thought about this for a long time. I asked myself what would be a fair price for 3 days with true Internet millionaires and other 6-figure online earners? Collectively and conservatively, the group I've assembled brings in over $200,000,000.00 per year.
If you could pick up just a fraction of a fraction of this knowledge — what would that be worth to you?
Actually the lowest number my colleagues, who attended previously, suggested I charge was $10,000. And yes I could charge and get this amount — but then it would limit this information to people who are already doing well online.
But I've decided to put this at a more reasonable level of $3,495 (including all taxes). And there is a very generous payment plan if you prefer that.
And I’ll even let you take this tuition and divide up into 4 easy payments of $873.75 spread 30 days apart. (Or save another $50 if you want to take care of your tuition in full so we can save on bookkeeping.)
If you’d like to bring a guest — they are $995 but they have to be a spouse/significant other, child, employee or business partner (tax forms will be required to prove relationship). And only one guest is allowed.
How About a Guarantee?
Absolutely, there is a big, bold brassy one! I’m determined never to have an unhappy customer:
Am I crazy?
I don’t think so, even though this puts me on the hook for a big chunk of change. To tell you the truth I’m not worried because I know the tremendous value of the exclusive information, trade secrets and contacts being shared over these 2 ½ days aren’t available to anyone else, anywhere!
But, I need to warn you you’ve got to be quick...

All the best,
Yanik Silver,
Director Y.S.S.
P.S. Use your powerful spy observation skills to look over the line-up again. Do you notice any common characteristics about these Internet entrepreneurs?
I don’t think so.
There are men and women...There people from all over the country...You’ve got young "kids" and then other agents who won’t let me reveal their age. Truly, the only thing in common is that these are regular, ordinary people who have simply figured out who to make the Internet their personal ATM machine…just like you can (if you follow their lead).
P.S. #2: This is really important! Not only is the event backed by a completely risk-free, money back guarantee...but I’m even throwing in an extra $250 for your troubles. The only way you can lose is by not getting your registration form in on time! Please don’t make the mistake of waiting to 'think this over'. Last time dozens of hopeful attendees were turned away because this event SOLD-OUT 5 weeks before the event.
P.S. #3: At last year’s Underground® I mentioned this year’s might be the last one. Quite frankly, I’m totally undecided if I will put another out there. The majority of my current time is spent on my Maverick Business Adventures® company so this could very well be the last Underground® event. I’m not telling you to seem like the rug store that has a "going out of business" sign posted every other week — but simply to give you full disclosure. I’m not retiring in anyway but the Underground® may be.

Huge EXTRA Day Discounted for Early Attendees! (Save $500)
Social Media Pre-Day (February 19, 2009)
The day before the main Underground® event you’ll have a seat for the absolute latest intel and information on using Social marketing to grow your business. The amazing thing about using social marketing is you can literally be a "nobody" one day and with zero outlay grow an incredibly rabid base of followers and friends who are glued to what you put out there.
The time to get moving on the social networking and media revolution is NOW! Companies that miss out on this are going to see their traffic and sales significantly diminished. Here’s just one quick example —
This is the traffic chart for Yelp.com vs. Zagat.com. Zagat used to be the leader in restaurant reviews but very quickly they’ve been overtaken and now pretty much left in the dust by Yelp.com, which is user generated, social media. Personally, I’m a paying member of Zagat.com and I still go to Yelp.com for restaurant reviews because there are so many more.
Quite frankly the writing is on the wall and if you want to be ahead of the curve you must make sure you attend this special pre-day. And instead of paying $995.00 like other pre-days we’ve offered you'll save 50% if you register for the Underground® 5 before Feb 10th, 2009.
You'll discover the absolute, up-to-the-minute real deal about using Twitter, Facebook, Social bookmarking (like DIGG, Stumble On, etc), Viral videos, Blogging and more! Social marketing is the hottest topic right now and you’ll get the straight scoop from real world people using it each and every day to grow their business.
Here’s a quick snapshot of who is currently confirmed (more coming):
Perry Belcher – Twitter and Social Media
I first got to know what an extraordinary businessman he is as part of my Millionaire mastermind group. And every meeting he shows up with new and exciting updates & insights.
So we’ve all been watching and wondering as he started ‘playing’ around with this social media stuff. But the guy has pretty much figured it out…especially for Twitter.
According to Perry, "Twitter.com is the probably the simplest, most powerful and MOST MISUNDERSTOOD social networking app." I agree.
He’s coming in to show you exactly how to leverage Twitter (and other social medial apps) to build an incredible ‘following’ for anything you want to do, say, sell or get the word out on.
Perry went from a complete standstill to over 5,000 followers on Twitter in 90 days. A few weeks after that he’s now up to over 13,000+ and it keeps growing exponentially!
And that’s just one of the great things about Twitter is people WANT to hear your message.
He’s got over 13,000 followers who are glued to what he says and he’s been able to parlay that into hundreds of thousands of dollars (in very creative ways). Note: If you think you’ll use Twitter just to blast your marketing message out there — be forewarned — that won’t work. But if you want to engage your customers and followers — this is one of the most powerful (and simplest) ways out there.
I really think Twitter might be more powerful than Facebook soon (seriously). And you can bet I’ll be watching Perry’s presentation and taking notes just like I did in our MasterMind meeting a few days ago in Florida.
Scott Stratten – Viral Video
I learned about this guy because someone forwarded me a video he did ‘breaking up with the Toronto Maple Leafs'. He filmed it in first-person like he was sitting at the table with the Leafs. I thought it was pretty funny. You know, "It’s not you — it's me", etc. The stuff you say to a boyfriend or girlfriend. Anyway he did it as a little experiment only mailing it to 2 bloggers (that he didn’t even know) and within a few days created a firestorm. The video's been viewed over 50,000+ times and got him on the National News plus numerous other press stories. Remember, all from 2 bloggers he didn’t know from Adam.
So if you’re talking about Viral Video — this guy is good. Damn good!
In total the videos Scott has created have been viewed over 60,000,000 times! But even more importantly that’s translated to generating 500,000 on subscriber lists from these videos. That means these viral videos created a true 'asset' you can mail to over and over again and keep profiting from.
And that’s exactly what Scott is coming to share during the Social Media Pre-day. He truly has this honed to system — and he’ll be letting you in on what it takes to get the stats counter turning over like a wild, out-of-control taxi meter in NYC.
Here are a few points Scott will cover:
- How to create landing pages that convert viewers to subscribers.
- What really makes something go viral (hint: you don’t always decide).
- Storyboarding and creating the concept for a mega viral hit.
- How to come up with ideas ALL the time for viral videos.
- Where to submit your videos to get the most initial bang for your effort!
- How to track and tweak your process to make sure it’s firing on all cylinders & much more!
Like I said these are first confirmed speakers – we’ll be announcing others who cover all aspects of Social Media. I believe this single pre-day could be well worth your ticket price for the ‘main event'...
