We thought you might fancy finishing off the weekend with a Quickie…. (sometimes they are the quite fun)
So here we are with the quickie to let you know about the kick-ass,  ninja-hot FREE WordPress plugin that you MUST download!

It’s called Jetpack and adds a whole ninjaload of back-flipping kung-fu to WordPress for you!

Oh yeah!  Its FREE!
How does easy subscriptions,  stats,  social sharing,  spelling checker,  backup,  gravatar hovercards,  contact forms,  shortlinks, easy video embedding,  math markup (hmmm… maybe not so much),  loads of widgets and easy search engine sharing sound?????

Pretty cool eh?  And it is all in ONE freebalicious plugin – totally free for you to grab right now – plus it’s free!
NINJA POWER!  (did we mention it’s free??)  If you’ve got WordPress then you need both FREE  Jetpack and the Covert messenger plugin :

  (Two totally essential Hong Kong Phooey plugin’s for you today then!!)

PLUS...  An IMPORTANT reminder that time is running out on the pre-launch offer for Revenue Redemption.  Seriously.. ONLY A COUPLE OF DAYS LEFT before the price changes from “cup of coffee” money and shoots up to “steak dinner for the whole family with lots of wine and a drinks at the bar” money!

Anyway,  have a superb ninjalicious weekend and don’t do anything we wouldn’t (which actually leaves you a whole bunch of options) !

Si & Randy,
(ninja power)

P.S. Our “thought for the weekend” comes courtesy of Fox network and the inimitable Peter Griffin of Family Guy fame :
 ”I’ve got an idea – an idea so smart that my head would explode if I even began to know what I’m talking about.”

Til next time
To You and Yours,

Here’s hoping you’re
Loving Life, Living it with Passion, And Passing it on!

Warm Regards

Ey Up, It’s MAY already!
I think it’s Tuesday too – lol …
Apologies – Rachel and I went to Manchester for the weekend to meet up and ‘network’ with some online marketing friends, and networking as you know takes a lot out of you
(Well a lot out of our wallets and the life out of our livers … haha)
Seriously, a massive thank you to Simon Hodgkinson for organizing the event, and all the cool guys who showed up to share their knowledge and help Manchester’s pubs make a profit!
And no – I wont be name dropping, suffice to say some great guys were there and we all had a great weekend with good food, plenty of drinks and a lot of conversations…. Plus the usual first rule applies – “We Don’t Talk About Fight Club”… wait wrong movie line… should it be “What Happens In Manchester Stays In Manchester!” – just doesn’t sound the same as Vegas does it…lol
And YES – I did get a round or two in!!

Anyways, I have been working too since my last post
Simon and I managed 14th place in John Thornhill’s JV competition for One Month Mentor, We’ve also been planning out our next piece of Simple Software and will be getting stuck into the coding in the next day or so (well Simon will be while I nag him as to how much he’s done… lol)

And I did the updates for RandysMoreMonthly adding over 40 products to download this month!

Meanwhile we did add a redeveloped simple graphic creator to the JVZoo platform.
We called it:
Simple Graphic Creator – cos it’s simple to use and saves hours of learning photoshop as well as a heap of cash! It’s priced at just $7 for lifetime access, but we have emailed our buyers list of LinkSupercharger and offered it free to anyone who bought and might want to help promote it
So if you haven’t bought LinkSupercharger – feel free to take a look and then shout me for free access to Simple Graphic Creator

We will be adding LinkSupercharger to the Warrior Forum as a WSO now that all testing and trial sales are complete, so watch out for that in the next few days

So that’s what’s been keeping me busy on my own sites, but I’ve also been helping John Thornhill with his webinars for his amazing Partnership To Success Program
(Hoping as I write that he still has a replay available for me to link to… if so I’ll add it so you can check it out)

And naturally – Simon and I have been buying and checking products that we think may be of use, quite a few actually – but unfortunately we can’t recommend all of them, but will add links to some below

Well – that was a short catch up, guess I must have been working too much… haha
(That’s what comes of not buying Wellies to walk through our drought ridden streets here in the UK!! – and apologies to anyone who is flooded out, I don’t mean to make fun … It’s just the hosepipe bans are still in force and they tell us we are in a bad drought with water shortages while we drive through feet of water on our roads!!)

There’ll be no camping out for Rachel and I while it’s like this! – that’s for sure!!

Right – back to work… chat soon

* Did You Spot These?

Here are a few of the products we CAN recommend that we’ve had access to over the last couple of weeks
(I don’t see the point in wasting space telling you what ones we bought and thought were rubbish!)

Product 1 :   Speedy Profit Creator
http://simplesimonsoftware.com/recommends/speedy

The EASY way to create beautiful, perfectly formatted ebooks in PDF format.  Seriously – This product is just “copy and paste” and it spits out a complete, ready for sale ebook that looks like you have paid hundreds of dollars for an expert to create!

And,  if you already have products for sale
(or you create them with Speedy Profit Creator above) then you might want to think about selling them via  Pay Per View!  Heck,  your cable company sells you movies via Pay Per View and it works for them doesn’t it ??  Why not sell your ebooks via Pay Per View with this :

Product 2 :   WPPayPerView
http://simplesimonsoftware.com/recommends/PPV

This is one of the best cash generators we have seen in a long time!  In a nutshell this powerful WordPress plugin lets you monetize your blog with a few clicks!  If you have ANY kind of content to sell (whether it’s blog posts, ebooks, videos, training, plr, MRR etc…) then you NEED this plugin right now!

There is NOTHING else like this anywhere – we really wish we had thought of it first LOL!
It uses the latest tech to allow you to set up (with just a couple of clicks) any kind of profitable payment or subscription plan on your blog!  It even integrates with Twitter and Facebook.  Seriously – You can charge people to view blog posts, download ebooks, access content, watch videos, gain entry to membership sites – whatever you like and all you have to do is point and click to get money in the bank!! (It’s also being offered at an 85% discount at the moment for ‘early birds’)

Products 3 and 4 are a couple of older ones that have had NEW content added to make them even better value!

Both are Kindle related, and Both are very good products that have had a heap of new content added since I last reviewed them!… so do pop over and check them!

Kindle Publishing Made Easy A Step-by-step Guide To Publishing Your Books And Ebooks In The Kindle Store With Amazon.com (AND IT’S a SPECIAL Discounted page for my readers!!)

And Geoff Shaws‘ EXCELLENT Kindling membership site with more content than I’ve ever see for a one off payment!

As usual – check the link and see what if any fit into what you’re doing and might help you move forward
Thankfully – there are always some great products coming out to compensate for some not so good ones…lol – Just make sure when you do yours that they are the good ones, it does work better in the long term for your reputation!!
OK – back to it I reckon….
Later
Randy

* Meet Ups – Cancelled Til Further Notice

OK – This seems to have been on the cards with the falling numbers I’ve been seeing attending. All the regulars are now busy working on their businesses, so I hope it’s due to some of the tips they picked up from coming….lol
And the sporadic attendees have either got stuck in or been frightened off the internet cos we didn’t hold any punches when it came to telling folks they had to work at their online business, and there were no magic solutions….. haha

So until some time I feel happy losing money on the venue again, I’ve cancelled all future meet ups!
So John Thornhill may just finally convince me to hold them in his office for a chunk more cash!
Thanks to all of you guys who have attended over the last 5 years, and good luck with your marketing

Cheers
Randy

Hi Everyone
Well here we are half way through the month already.
And yep – I’m up to my usual sillyness already. I don’t think I’ll ever learn from my own advice!

I’ve lost count of how many times I tell others to stick to one thing and see it through, and yet I keep ‘Flitting’ from one thing to another myself!
Quite honestly I shouldn’t complain… after all we’re only a couple of weeks into the new year, and yet I sit and wonder why ‘stuff’ just isn’t finished yet?

Granted some projects take time, and we do need to wait until they’re complete before we can move on…. But boy oh boy it FEELS like I’ve been working on some for an age…lol

Does that affect you too?
Does it feel like you’re ‘flitting’ from one thing to another and making very slow progress?
Do you have 3 or more projects on the go, and as you ‘flit’ between them – does it feel like you haven’t moved forward?

If it does – here’s some food for thought:
I’d bet that if you have been chipping away, progress will have been made ! (It’s just that sometimes it doesn’t feel that way)
If you check on where you started and then where you’re up to – you will have been moving forward!

Sometimes it’s like we’re on a journey, but we forget to look at the map!
All we can see is how far we still have to go – and it’s so far away that it feels like we’ll never get there!

This is then compounded by the fact that all day and EVERY day we get email after email telling us of yet another new product we should check out and buy!

Now we all know that we should be avoiding anything that doesn’t fit with our business plan and marketing objectives. so that’s a given….
BUT – what these constant launches do – is make us feel like every man and his dog is making more progress than we are – doesn’t it?

So here’s what I’ve realised.
We ALL need to STOP from time to time and check our MAP!
NOT to see how far we have to go – but sometimes to see how far we’ve come!

Only by cutting out all the noise from the constant launches and feelings of everyone is moving forward except me…… Can we take some time to see how much progress we’ve actually made!
This then helps us to stay motivated and keep plodding forward!

I say plodding forward – because sometimes we don’t make leaps and bounds towards our goals….
Sometimes we take one baby step after another …. literally belly crawling forwards to our final destination!

But Hey – I can tell you from both online experience of keeping plodding until I get a project finished, and from an analogy of a time when I was in uniform doing my bit many years ago…
Online – I just need to remind myself of the stuff I have gotten finished and the regular money those items make (check my links if you need to)

My Analogy from past offline experience is taken from a time I was on a military exercise.
This one night, myself a small group of ‘specialists’, were given the task of keeping our enemy awake all night by launching probing attacks on them every couple of hours. (the idea being to ensure they were sleep deprived prior to our forces launching a ful scale attack the following dawn)
Unfortunately, due to their having patrols and sentry posts forward of their front lines – this meant we had to be very very quiet and take our time moving forwards for each probe.

Yes I’m getting to the point…lol
What we had to do was use techniques such as ‘ghost walking’ ‘belly crawl’ and ‘doubling back’ throughout the night…..
We would move forward literally inch by inch until we were in postition to shoot.
Then a hasty retreat after we had woken them, only to repeat the procress again an hour later!

Each time we moved forward we had to go so slowly it honestly felt like we’d never get into position – and yet each time we eventually did.
We’d be laid hidden in the undergrowth while their patrols marched past us, watching as they took just a few minutes to move over trerritory that we would take an hour or more to move over.
But because of our patience and checking exactly where we were on opur maps – we knew we’d get there and we did.
On every occassion we would surprise them and make our escape. (we even captured two of their sentries and a front line gun team…lol)
Come the morning the full scale attack was a resounding success and we got to sleep for a large part of the morning, as well as getting a great meal as a reward for our small part of the exersice.

The lesson being that sometimes those extremely long times of feeling like progess was so slow, We did need a look at the map and the overall plan to remind us that what we were doing was the right corse of action, and even then if we can only ‘Belly Crawl’, we’re still mo9ving forwards!

So if you’re feeling like everyone is rushing ahead of you …
Check you map!
See how far you’ve come,
Take note of any detours you’ve had to make,
And make sure you give yourself a pat on the back for any progress.

Then just stick at it until!

Remember – if you never give up – you can’t possibly lose.
Just keep it moving forwards

OK – that’s enough story telling for today, now back to what’s been feeling slow for me…lol
And maybe you’ll see some progress and I might realise I have actually got some stuff done…haha

Chat soon

* Amazon Bits

Strange title I know, but let me explain…..
I’ve called it Amazon Bits because there literally are a few bits to mention. – Not just one aspect or element or product
This also in part covers some of what I was just talking about in terms of the time it takes to get stuff done!
With the first part of ‘time’ being no ones fault – but still a heck of a wait (or at least that’s how it felt)

Before I go on, I guess now would be a good time to add the fact that Amazon is one of the key areas of growth I want for my own business this year, I still have other online stuff to get done too – hence the multiple projects that I advise against…lol
And here’s one reason for having multiple projects on the go too…….
The Waiting!

First bit:
I’ve been meaning for ages (and I mean more than a year) to get a physical book created with Amazon Create Space.
This allows anyone to publish their own book and have it for sale world wide via Amazons Print On Demand Service. (Also worthwhile because unlike old fashioned self publishing – you don’t have to order a minimum print run of hundreds of books in order to see your name on a book cover)
So long story short – I finally got around to adding something.
It started out as some PLR I bought the rights to, and I edited it to make it my own.
(As it turns out it’s proving popular with my family and friends – because they can finally understand what it is that I do….lol)

But from a TIME point of view – I hadn’t realised just how long it would take for people in the UK to actually have a book shipped!
I submitted my work, created cover graphics etc. – and then had to wait around a month for the proof to be shipped to me! – ALL BEFORE I could approve it and have it listed!
Hence I had no choice but to move onto other projects while I awaited the postman, after all – just sitting around waiting wasn’t going to kep my business moving forwards….lol
So I got on with other things like the new link cloaker mentioned below.

Anyways – finally my proof copies arrived!
(Here’s a vanity part…. no matter how many ebooks I have out there that are making me regular monthly incomes – there really is NO DESCRIBING how it feels to see a physical book with your name and picture on it as the Author!)
My intention isn’t to make a fortune from selling this book, it was more to use the book as a ‘business card’ in effect. to give a free copy to local business people who might be interested in using my services from my offline site. After all – how much easier is it to consider using someone who is a published Author of a book about online marketing, when making a descion on whom to give a contract to?

But just in case you’d like to buy a copy – here’s the link:
Help…. I’m Addicted To Internet Marketing….. Will You Be Too?

And if you do buy a copy – let me know by sending a me a support ticket, and I’ll happily throw in any of my paid ebooks/products as a bonus, as I could do with some buyer reviews…lol
(that only applies to products/sites that are my own, and not ones where I have a partner or co-author… naturally)

So that’s create space, a great tool to get your name on a book and give you a larger than usual head when you chat to family & friends ;

Moving on…. – Do you own a Kindle Reader?
Kindle

Next bit

As well as Create Space, I’ve also been revisiting Amazon Kindle Publishing.
I already had some titles published on kindle - Randy Smith On Kindle  But I did them a good while ago and forgot about them.
Long story short – I’ve seen so many people promoting ‘Kindle’ products over the last year, and I actually promoted one myself  ages ago. On a personal level – I stopped looking at most as I saw the shear mess people were making, as well as the useless products that were just videos saying “get your ebooks on kindle”, and then making an offer of a heap of PLR to upload!
Where they failed was in actually showing people how to do the job properly!

For a start - Amazon didn’t take long before they started the ‘Kindle Slap’ - removing all the duplicate content poor quality PLR junk from the site!
And secondly – I didn’t see the hundreds of daily sales all those selling the plr claimed was so easy to make!

Well – as with all things – the Kindle guides have evolved!
Plus Kindle has continued to grow and grow! – It even got a mention in my MENSA magazine that I get sent out every month!, and that reminded me to take a look at my own products!

I can say that I was pleasantly surprised to see I have made a handful of sales (not the hundreds people talk about), but nevertheless – sales coming in from nothing other than listing 4 items in the kindle store!
Hence I’ve been on a mission to grab as much info and training on Kindle as I could find!…. and trust me when I tell you – there is LOADS of it! .. lol

One reason I’m mentioning it today is that I finally found some great training that has opened my eyes to why I haven’t made more sales…. And also teaches me exactly what and how to start doing in order to get more from my Kindle products!

What I love about kindle is that it’s actually easier than creating IM products with all the pages that a typical ebook site needs in order to make money from it!
(So the work load is a heck of a lot less, and less techy too!)
Anyways – If you’re still reading this far in, then I assume you might also be interested in taking a serious look at getting some products into the Kindle Store.

So here’s my strogest recommendation and a couple of others that I’ve bought recently and been pleased with.
I’ve learnt something from each of these product, so feel free to check them all out.
But if you ask me for just one – then I’d have to plump for Geoff Shaws Kindling membership right now

Here are the links:
Geoff Shaws Kindling Membership
Geoff alrwady has some fantastic info in this membership that is a one time fee – BUT – He is also adding more and that will increase it’s price as time goes by… So the best time to grab this is now!
ALSO – If you do buy it – Please contact me… as I’d like to set up a small groups of us to help each other as per geoff’s training on the section about Instant Social proof … yopu’ll know what I mean once you’re inside
This is my Strongest recommendation – because I learnt more about what I personally did wrong or missed out from this, and I haven’t even been able to get through the extra content he’s added since I last logged in!! Now, this is slightly higher priced than the WSOs I normally recommend, but having compared the value, there really is a complete and modern Kindle course in here. Just check my testimonial on Geoff’s page
Very Impressed!

Others I’ve bought:
Kindle Content Miracle
Happy enough with the content, but I would add that Cory seems to be a marketer who promotes stuff daily!

Kindle Pack
A Great basic guide to ensure you get set up correctly on Kindle itself, and some further study in the cheap oto Also the product that got me looking for more and more Kindle info

Vals Kindle Guide
This is the product I used when I started adding products to Kindle, and Val also did me a special offer page for my readers

Perfect Publishing System - (I’m awaiting affiliate approval – so in the mean time search the warrior forum if you don’t want to wait – Seems daft that after over 48 hours he hasn’t logged in to approve affiliates!!)
This one from Jonny Andrews was recommended by Geoff Shaw so I bought it… It’s more about how to make money rather than how to set up your ebooks etc. Also packed with info and videos to guide you through the process! – Highly recommended.

Kindle Publishing Kit
Another very useful offer – In this guide you get links to free software to help get the formatting right with kindle (Which also happened to be one of my biggest hurdles!!)

So there you have some of the kindle products I’ve bought and am happy to recommend. I wont try and tell you which to consider other than repeating that Geoff Shaws membership is what I’d consider to be the most complete and valuable, but some of the others have useful parts in their own right  like the Kindle Publishing Kit, so do check them out if you’re getting into Kindle, and grab what you feel will help you

And don’t forget to contact me if you buy Geoff’s one, As I seriously do want to have a chat to benefit us all

Moving On
Randy

* New Cloaker News

OK – This has been a lengthy post with a lot of info about Amazon.
So I wont get into too much detail from here.
Re the new cloaker – all I will say is that after going through the comments and ideas given in reply to my last post.…..
Simon and I have been tweaking, testing and adding all sorts of extra features and facilities to the ‘extras’ that were already built in.

This has made the cloaker much more than just a link cloaker and tracker!!
We’ve wrapped it up now and encoded it ready for adding it as a product for sale – and just have the remainder of the sales copy and what it can do to write, along with some affiliate tools etc.

In the mean time – Here’s a link to a ‘HotPage’ I created in around a minute or so complete with header graphic title, links in boxes and footer etc. for those Amazon links I’ve recommended above.
Basically just showing off ONE of the amazing features the software has built in…….
Not forgeting to mention that this is the easiest software I’ve ever installed – with just ONE simple install file to upload and NO databases or database users to add and remember etc.!

So here’s the ‘hot page’ – Randys Recommended Amazon Kindle Links

Do take a look at the whole of the page, and remember – All I did was fill in some blanks and push a button!

More Soon…

* Catch Up

Hi Everyone,
I thought I’d try and give a quick catch up before announcing the results of the competition
It’s been yet another busy week of feeling like I’ve got nothing done…lol
I think that could be largely due to having a few days partying as yesterday was Rachel and my 3rd anniversary of the day we met
So with Halloween partys from Friday night (after babysitting), then early anniversay nights out Saturday, chilling time Sunday and more partys Monday, it feels like I’m partied out …lol

As for the rest of the week earlier – I had meetings with my mate Terry Dollard trying to teach me more techy stuff as well as discussing how to get NicheMarketPLR online and which payment processor to use??,

Then writing copy for John Thornhills WSO Domination (that was cool as I got early access and have included a review below)
I also had one of my daughters move house – so that naturally lead to a lot of back and forth, fetching and carrying…haha

Hence the feeling of having got nothing done…lol
Fortunately, with a couple of emails to my list and the few posts I have managed to get online, I have seen some income from sales and commissions
The special $9 offer for RandysMoreMonthly got a few clicks, so I obviosuly have new subscribers who’ve not see the value in that site yet (do check it if you haven’t already)

My 7 Key Elements WSO with the PLR upsell has done well and made a good few sales (although I did think the PLR rights would have sold more?… it is a great chance to get a quality product you can use as your own)
And of course the email I sent for John’s WSO Domination has earned me immediate commissions as well as recurring ones from the bargain upsell – more on that below.. (see the review)

I did plan on investigating a couple of other products that launch today (the ones that look good from good marketers), But being honest, I haven’t had the time. So they just get a berief mention below!

And with this week having a start today, an interview booked for Friday, a meeting with John (and some of his subscribers) Thursday, it looks like being another hectic week!
PLUS – do mark your calendars this month.. the 29th will be my 49th birthday (that’s more a reminder for my kids who all seem to think I’ve OLD already!!!!
See – I can’t be old as I’m not even 50 for over a year yet!!… and even when I get there – 50 isn’t old… it’s just getting on a bit! (Isn’t it??)

Right – enough rambling on – lets’ see who won the competition

Randy
=====

* And The Winners Are…. (Competition Results)

OK – here we go:

In this post I announced a competition to win one of 3 Camtasia licenses and 3 Snagit licenses.
I had a good number of entries, and I really wish I had a prize for everyone… But hey, at least they got a backlink from a PR3 blog

So thank you to everyone that entered!

And now for the winners:
I’ve checked Google Analytics for the overall winner, the rest of the entries were written down on old fashioned pieces of paper and 5 names pulled out of the hat (actually a large coffee cup, but you know what I mean)…lol

So – Drum Roll please…….

The most traffic was sent by…..

Keith Purkiss – Thanks Keith – You just won yourself a license for Camtasia Studio

The next two entries out of the hat for Camtasia Licenses were….

Der Rerrr Rerr Rerr Rump (You try typing a drum rol!!)

Trish Findlay and Jennifer Taylor
Congratulations Ladies

And the next 3 names out of the hat for our 3 Snagit License Winners are:

Mary Kathan, Dee Ann Rice, & Carol Smith
Congrats Ladies (Again… lol – I only just noticed Keith is the only male winner!! – Looks like the Girlie Gangs take more action that us guys??)

Would you all please submit a ticket on my support desk so I can be sure you get the license keys and download instructions

So thank you once again to everyone who entered, I hope the winners make great use of their prizes

Cheers
Randy

* WSO Domination Review

WSO Domination… Wow Super Offer – or Wasteful Silly Offer??

With all the buzz surounding this particular offer, and considering that there have been so many ‘clickbank’ offers this last couple of years that just haven’t lived up to their salespage claims…

I thought we’d take a more detailed look at what you actually get with John Thornhills WSO Domination!

Has he just ‘slapped’ a quick report together based on the popularity of WSO’s lately, Or is this a real course that can actually help people?
John Thornhill does have a reputation for delivering high quality products, and for being one of the genuine hype free marketers online today.

He has built that reputation over many years of sticking to his principles and helping thousands of people finally move forward in their online efforts….
BUT…..
Could he have been lead to the dark side by the amazing popularity of the WSO special offers forum?

FACT: – he has had a massive amount of success over the last 12 months releasing WSO special offers. So it will be interesting to see if that success has tempted him over to the dark sidce of marketing that seems to revolve around ‘knocking together’ a quick report, selling it cheap and having a higher tiocket upsell in place to maximise profit from what is essentially information that most already know!

FACT: – A great many others have followed that pattern lately, and with the ability to now bring affiliates on board when promoting a wso – it is a place that has got a lot more attention from some marketers after a quick buck!

FACT: - There are also some fantastic bargains to be had on the warrior special offer forum! – Hence it’s not surprising that a lot of genuine marketers have gathered there to show their wares!

So what about WSO Domination?
Does it really help people make the most of this ever growing marketplace of targeted ready to invest buyers?

Well here’s my opinions having looked around the course:

My Review of WSO Domination
——————————————–

The Pro’s
————-

On gaining access to the membership I can see straight away that this is NOT a quicky report thrown toegther in order to capitalise on the current WSO popularity.

There is an upsel which I make mention of in the cons – but in fairness .. What offers don’t carry an upsell these days?
That said – It is not part of the training and would not be essential in order to benefit from the main product! (Don’t you just hate it these days when the main product is practically useless without the upsell?)

So no – this product stands well on it’s own merit (with OR without the cheaply priced upsell option)

The main product is broken down into managable chunks of information.
This is great for those wishing to ‘skip’ some of the theory modules, as they could be considered to be basic information. Obviously neccessary to those who are new to the concept, but easily skimmed through by more experienced marketers.

Following through the modules – they do all make sense in the order they are presented, and anone who does follow each step will gain a very good understanding of the what, why, and how in a very detailed way.

Bonus Software (sells for $97) – EXTREMELY Helpful!
More Useful Software (sells For $27) – Major Time Saver
PLUS Two Extra Bonuses ($47 & $27 Value) – Helpful for beginners!

The training is Seriously Step By Step and comes in the following formats:
Online
MP4
iPad
iPhone
iPod
PDF

Making them easily accessible to Anyone and Everyone regardless of their preferred learning style or method!

Regarding the actual content, it appears that no stone has been left unturned in ensuring this is not a teaser program that leaves people stuck on various aspects, or searching for weeks to learn how to do some of the basic things needed!

Overall it would seem that EVERY ASPECT has genuinely been covered in this STEP by STEP course that will guide the buyers/student to FINALLY seeing results that other programs would have you believe possible, but then go on to be yet another too complicated, too time consuming or parts missing type of program.

The Con’s
————-

There is an upsell in place to a private forum and ongoing help.
(it’s NOT required, so it could be argued that this is just good marketing practice, also – it is reasonably priced underthe $10 mark, so it’s not an expensive option for those on a limited budget)

One could argue that the fact that the training is so comprehensive is actually a negative.
BUT only in terms of those searching for a ‘get rich quick’ easy option!

Which brings us to the only main negative I’ve found in this course….

It Requires genuine Work and Effort!

You will have to create products, and preferably ones that add value to the buyers.
(I can forsee that many buyers will take shortcuts and this will lead to more rubbish being touted in the wso section of the warrior forum) 

For anyone considering this as a quick buck income method – the major negative is that it does teach real ways of making a genuine income and building a long term business. So it doesn’t solve any challenge for fast buck merchants.

Actually – reading my own words here makes me realise that only those who are after the ‘Get Rich Quick’ – without Providing Value would really consider these point negative!

So I’ll move on to my conclusion.

Conclusion:
—————–

WSO domination isn’t a quick read report, and is in fact a full blown training course laid out in a step by step manner for all levels of marketers to be able to take advantage of.

It’s filled with content that genuinely covers every aspect step by step.

The bonsues are actually useful and make a great addition to the main core training.

All in all – this product is Excellent Value for money and I feel confident it will actually help a lot of people get started in finally getting a return on their investment of both time and money they have made in searching for genuine income methods that work in the online marketplace.

My Recommendation:
Check it out, and if you either have the ability yourself to create products, or the knowledge to outsource product creation. Then this will help you make a lot more money a lot faster than many methods that hit our inboxes on a daily basis!

Here is my affiliate link to the free video for you to check:
I will be compensated and make a commission if you decide to invest in the product, but I sincerely hope you can see that my review is genuine, and not just for the few dollars in commissions.

Regards
Randy
P.S. The Price will be increasing on Thursday – so do check it sooner rather than later!

* Another Couple Of Launches This week…

Also Launching today are:

Digi Traffic Accelerator
500 push-button backlinks for just $1

If you’re interested in getting truly VAST amounts of traffic, you’re going to be very interested in this…
It’s the hot new technique that’s making waves in IM, and it’s going to completely change the way you build backlinks…
Because let’s be honest, not all backlinks are created equal.

But Andy Fletcher’s found a way to identify the BEST…
The ones that pump the most link juice, drive the most traffic and pull the most weight in the SERPS.
Anyone else would write a report they’d try and sell for $47 telling everyone about it, but not Andy.
Because he knows you don’t want something that just tells you how to do it… you want something that does it for you.
So he’s built a tool that’ll build you over 500 of these A-grade links at the push of a button.

Digi Traffic Accelerator is a desktop app that will -

-  Build you over 500 premium Traffic Accelerator backlinks at the push of a button
-  Completely automate account creation and confirmation on hundreds of Traffic Accelerator sites
-  Flood your site with targeted traffic (I mean it… these backlinks are built exactly where they’ll give you the most possible traffic, and you get over 500 every time you push the button!)
-  Use advanced human mimic technology so you get the best possible stick rate
-  Integrate with three different well-known Captcha-breaking services so you can crack all captchas on autopilot, or if you prefer you can do it manually from the software

And the best part?  Right now you can try it out for just $1.
But hurry – Andy’s only selling 3000 copies to make sure the sites aren’t overloaded, and it’s going to sell out FAST.
Grab it now -

http://www.digiresults.com

Seriously, this is going to change the way you look at link building!  Get it while you still can -
I haven’t had chance to do more than take a quick look at this – BUT, I can say I’ve got several of Andys products and they do work well!
So If you would care to check it out and make your own mind up, I can assure you that he is a good guy and the guarantees will be solid!

http://www.digiresults.com

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

The other BIG Launch today is:

Auto Build It

You’ve probably already had hundreds of emails about ‘Auto Build It’ from other marketers.
It’s another program that looks great, but I’ve not had chance to test it yet….

So why would I give it a link?
Because knowing the people behind it I suspect it will be a very useful tool that will work!

That said – I genuinely don’t think it’s for everyone!

If you’ve been held back by the lack of techy skills to get things done, like building your own squeeze pages, affiliate pages, sales pages, membership sites or any other sort of websites. Then it might well be worth looking at!.
Or if you just find that those parts of your business take a heck of a lot of time and you don’t mind paying to save some of that time…. then also – do check it out!
http://www.randolfsmith.com/likes/ABI

This software does a heap of different things that can make it easier and save you time

So I do recommend that you check out what it does and make your own mind up as to whether it will be of benefit to you!
http://www.randolfsmith.com/likes/ABI

But do remember what I always say…. If you are not going to use it to it’s full potential – then don’t spend cash on something that will just sit around not getting used… especially as there is an ongoing subscription!

Hope that helps… Especially when the world and his dog will be telling you it’s a must have tool

* Catch Up

Just another quickie in terms of a catch up,
I’ve still been working on WizardWebServices (for Businesses in and around Northallerton who would like some website help) so I haven’t done a lot with my online stuff.
That said I have been checking a few new products in between updating the site and reinstalling a script 5 times so far cos I keep messing it up…lol
(It makes me smile to see I can still mess things up and not know where I went wrong… But I’m determined to sort this fiddly script without asking for help…. IF I can!)

I did find a cool free plugin to add thumbnails to the portfolio page of the site, the ones that you can click on to see a larger image and have a html link in the description!
If you need something that does that – check out – Next Gen Gallery
A free download and does a great job…. Here’s a page I created using the plugin:
http://wizardwebservices.com/gallery

So there’s one free plugin already…..
Now onto the subject….
It Never Rains But It Pours….lol
It seems I’ve gone from having not a lot to recommend, to seeing a good few cool products and programs in the last couple of weeks!
So I’ve mentioned another 3 below – two free and one paid product!
As usual – take a look and decide for yourself whether any of them fit in with where your business is going

Chat soon

* A Freebie Worth Reading

As mentioned, I’ve spent most of the week getting my offline site built, along with a mobile version facebook like page, and all the various parts to have it ready
to be seen, ;)
Meanwhile – I have had an email or three between myself and Alex Jeffreys about his latest free report.

Starting with his affiliate manager, and then getting Alex himself to email me.
Long story short, I’ve known him since 2006/7
Anyways – I’ve already seen a few people mention the report called ‘Unreported Marketing’

But I didn’t want to promote it UNTIL I had read it myself!

I got my copy just before launch Tuesday night, but I wasn’t at home … tch!
So I’ve read the whole thing this yesterday

And being honest, I’m impressed.
Listen, I didn’t want to use the copy & paste email extoling the virtues of it.
I would rather just be straight forward and tell you it’s worth reading!
http://www.randolfsmith.com/likes/Unreported

There’s nothing techy on there to learn, but the story of Alex’s up’s and down’s carries a lot of personal lessons!
PLUS – Having known and seen his progress over the years, I know all the little querks he mentions first hand.
(Heck I even spoke to the cartoon character he mentions, BEFORE I knew it was my good friend Sally Neill….lol)

I also knew of some of the challenges he hit while growing his business first hand, and even tried to offer my support.
But here he is, lessons learned and still raking in mega money!
So I do feel reading his report will benefit many of my readers:

Hence I recommend you pop over and grab a copy, then read it as soon as possible, as there is a chance to leave him comments and win some coaching!
Here’s the link for you
http://www.randolfsmith.com/likes/Unreported

OH, I’ll have some free wordpress themes for you in a few days, once I find time to get them uploaded, so I’ll update you as soon as they’re ready

Meanwhile – check out Alex’s report, and I’ll talk to you soon.
Later
Randy

* Advanced Notice Before The Big Boys Tell You – Another Cool Freebie

Here’s a site that doesn’t officially launch til next week, so the big boys don’t have it in their schedule to tell you about yet…haha
I’ve seen kerry working on this since April, and she’s packed a heap of content into it, as it was due to be on sale for $127 !!!

However – she’s partnered up with John Thornhill on it and John convinced her to GIVE IT AWAY!
of course there will be an offer etc. – But you can access the main product for free  AND you can get in now and even promote your link BEFORE the big list owners if you’re quick!

So whether it’s just to learn from the product or to get a link out before the big boys – I would suggest you hurry along to the main page at:
http://www.randolfsmith.com/likes/TGM

And it gets even better becasue you don’t need any previous skills or experience, and it’s guaranteed to make you money from day one if you just watch the video’s and do as Kerry and John do.
Kerry used this exact same system to go from newbie marketer, who struggled to build a TINY list of just 60 to EXPERT list builder who went on to add OVER 2600 subscribers to her list in just 90 days and generated OVER $1500 in sales.

Some would say that they have gone mad because not only have they created a STEP BY STEP video course showing you how to do EXACTLY the same….They are giving it away for FREE!
Why don’t you go check out. I just know you will be impressed!
And it’s TOTALLY free, so what do you have to lose expect a few minutes of your time

* Learn With Sally…. Very Interesting!

For one of the very few times I ever do this – I’m actually recommending a product I’ve not had access to (yet)
But let me explain!

This isn’t something from some stranger who is just after making sales etc.
This is from my very good friend Sally Neill.

Sally launched her own coaching program learn With Sally while I was on my holidays and I completely missed the chance to ask if I could take a look.
With one thing and another I haven’t had time to give her a shout to ask for a nosey….. BUT

Yes – there has to be a but…lol – I do know a good number of the people who’ve taken Sally’s Coaching, and I’ve been touring their blogs and keeping an eye on whet they’ve been up to…
And let me tell you the progress I’ve seen these guys make is nothing short of astounding!

People have learned a massive ammount and taken action to increase their lists, income and experiences online. They’ve faced their fears and together with Sallys gentle Kicks in the rear – they’ve grown their businesses by leaps and bounds.
So yeah – I signed up as an affiliate and took a quick look at what’s on offer.

Here’s what yopu get if you check out Learn With Sally – The Replays!

LWS Replay Package includes:

Module 1: Blogging Superstar – Webinar Replay + 9 Video tutorials

Module 2: Traffic Foundations – Webinar Replay + 9 Video tutorials

Module 3 Social Media Succes – Webinar Replay + 12 Video Tutorials

Module 4: Video Mania Part 1 (Learn Camtasia) – Webinar Replay + 6 Video Tutorials

So that’s 36 videos AND 4 webinars that were pure content and no pitching!

Knowing Sally personally and having seen the progress her students have made, I recommend popping over and checking out her coaching to see what she has to say about it.
http://www.randolfsmith.com/likes/LWS

And I will be giving her a shout and asking for a review copy so I can mention it again once I’ve taken a full tour of the inside
But without even seeing it all – I am sure it’s a product that can and will help a lot of my readers, so I didn’t want to delay in sending you the link. Hope that’s OK with you
