Here’s what I want to tell you about today:
It’s my 9 year anniversary.
9 years of selling products Online.
It started with eBay, graduated into eCommerce with Yahoo, and evolved into Information Marketing, Affiliate Marketing, and finally culminating into the pinnacle of all Internet Marketing achievements…
Blogger.
Heh.
In celebration, I’m going to a Childrens Charity Event tonight to get drunk with Deepak Chopra. Betcha I can get him to do a keg stand.
Tuxedos, Beer Pong and Deepak. It may not be Kayne’s idea of livin’ large, but…
So, I have one thing to say to my High School Guidance Counselor: [click to continue…]

This is why modern technology ROCKS!
"What do you mean I'm a work-a-holic?"
I’m mixing, editing, and encoding the first 4 parts of the ASS-KICKING Teleconference that I did with John Reese last week while traveling a little under MACH 1 at 37,800 feet.
That’s my laptop running Adobe Premiere CS 4.2.0. and I’ve got a pair of noise canceling headphones on so I can tweak out all the noise from the telephone line… If your eyes are good, you’ll see that at this moment, I’m just over Dallas, messing with some EQ.
So, all I’m saying here is… CHECK OUT THE DEDICATION ON OLE COUSIN ANDY – ALL UP EDITING FOR HIS PEOPLEZ EVEN WHILE ON AN AIRPLANEZ!
Yo.
If you missed the Call between John Reese and I, I don’t mind telling you that you missed a rare thing. Once every couple years, I feel like a presentation truly “hits it out of the park” – and this was one of those times for both of us.
Of course, the people that were foolish enough to hear it live were COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED…
So, yeah… Sorry about that.
Below are the first 4 sections of the Teleseminar. There’s about an hours worth of content here, and 2 more hours of content to go. I’ll release some more parts over the next few days.
ACTION ITEM: Listen to Parts 1-4 and please PLEASE leave a comment for John and I.
Part 1 – Why you leave so much money on the table
Part 2 – Should you compete in Big Markets or Niche Markets?
Part 3 – Should You focus on ONE Business or seek Multiple Streams of Income?
Part 4 – How much is it costing you to be COOL to your customers even when (especially when) they’re WRONG..?

I love music.
Queue up the right tune, and no matter what my mood is, it can get better.
I can (and have) spent whole days consumed by the exquisite synergies created by the feature called “Genius Playlists”, thoughtfully included in iTunes. Hours would pass without a single song skipped – just one great jam after another… The Stones, Skynrd, Zeppelin, The Crystal Method, Dire Straights, a little Metallica, some Cannonball Adderley, even a little Fat Boy Slim.
And then…
The music ends. The song usually concludes with an elongated sustain on a powerful major chord. Silence, then a different set of rhythms spin up to take its place and the next new song beings.
The metaphor of music is about as close as I can come to explaining why I left StomperNet. It’s not perfect – in fact, re-reading it again, it does moderately poor job explaining the tactical and strategic reasons that influenced my decision to leave.
But I think it might just capture the emotion perfectly. [click to continue…]
