Hope you’ve had a Super Cool Ninja Weekend

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 :

And don’t forget:

  (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!

Please check it out BEFORE the  price changes in a few days :

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

Firstly – an apology:  On Thursday Simon and I sent an email where we mentioned Simon Hodgkinsons latest release :
http://simplesimonsoftware.com/recommends/GetSmarterOnline

Somebody complained to Aweber about the email!!

We’re not sure why but we can only guess it was because we had the letters “BS” in the title.

So,  we are genuinely sorry if we offended anyone but we’re NOT sorry for letting you take a peek at Simons new product as it is kick-ass ninja superb   (we mean ass in the sense of a donkey by
the way……….)
Don’t forget – We only EVER show you products that we have personally verified are top notch and then only from product creators that we know on a personal level!  There is far too much rubbish floating around in this industry and we certainly don’t ever want to be accused of promoting junk!

Anyway,  apology over and on to today’s recommendations :

We get tons of products to look at every single day.  99.9% of them get filed under trash.  Heck,  we don’t get past the salespage with some (it’s usually that hypey)!
However, the .1% that we let through and tell you about are the REAL diamonds and the latest one from IM Wealth Builders is an extremely dazzling example!

We’re not going to go into a long rambling explanation – we respect your time far too much!  So,  here are the raw, ninja, stripped-down facts about it :

Product Name : Covert Messenger
Product Brilliance : Stunningly Stellar!
How do I sneak a look :
http://simplesimonsoftware.com/recommends/DarkSidemarketing

What does it do :
It’s a point and click WordPress plugin.  It’s so dang powerful in generating clicks and responses from your blogs that you will, unfortunately, be faced with a moral dilemma:

Do you use it for the power of good or the forces of evil?  (duh dum… duh dum… cue suitably evil orchestral music…)
Well…. that’s entirely up to you – We can’t make that choice for you and it totally depends on your moral compass.  We are using it for the power of good but we prefer to be Jedi’s anyway (or at least really good non-evil Ninja’s…)

However, If YOU want to play Darth then we can’t stop you (our lightsabers are in the shop being fixed…)

Whichever path you choose you are going to see amazing click through rates and fantastic results.
Don’t forget,  in the immortal words of Uncle Sam : “With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility”!

(and in the immortal words of Peter Griffin : ”I’m not afraid to stand up to friends. Just ask Spartacus!”)

OH… NEARLY FORGOT!   It’s a Dimesale so it is increasing in price as you read!  PLEASE check it out before it gets any higher :
http://simplesimonsoftware.com/recommends/DarkSidemarketing

Best Wishes,
Simon & Randy.

P.S.  In the immortal words of Kenny from South Park : “mmmmmmmmmff mmmfff mmmmf mmmmmmmmmmmmf mmmfff”

And just cos it’s the weekend…..

Til next time
To You and Yours,

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

* New Style Posts

Hello again and welcome to my inbetween post
lol – I’m calling it an inbetween post as I’m changing my style…

No Longer will you see lengthy rambles posted around every couple of weeks, It’s all change for me now.
I’m going to try and post shorter posts and more often after todays ramble.

This has come about because I’ve been set in my ways for a good while, and as we all know Change happens whether we like it or not!
So it’s time I moved with the times and changed the way I do things too (or at least give it a try)

I’m not getting the open rates I used to get, so all those years of building relationships with my list hasn’t really paid off – as they stopped reading anyways – so I might as well join the rest of the IM Party and email more often at the risk of upsetting people and causing them not to read my emails…. OH WAIT – they aren’t anyways… haha
But writing out long rambles daily would be far too much work and leave me with no time for anything else – hence I’m also taking advantage of a new site where I can get ideas for email content and adapt them to send much more quickly than writing them out myself.
I’ll tell you about the site once the owner has a discount arranged, as it’s currently $97 a month which isn’t affordable to a lot of the folks who do still read my ramblings!
But after speaking to him – he is sorting a deal… so watch this space

Meanwhile I thought I’d start by posting yesterdays email below to show you the kind of thing I’ll be doing from now on……
More of an infotainment message rather than a long ramble… so hopefully you’ll get some good advice in shorter posts, and I’ll benefit by linking to a good offer that is loosely related to the lesson learned

So I’ll no longer have the table of contents, the multiple posts or the sign off….
Just a title date and straight into it.

Time will tell whether it’s a good move, bad move or of no difference to the few who still turn up here for my rambles (fingers crossed that you’ll like the post)

So let’s get straight into it with the lessons Lord Alan Sugar can teach us

Randy
=====

* No BS Advice From Lord Alan Sugar

One of the most compelling TV shows here in the UK is The Apprentice…
But instead of Donald Trump, we have Lord Alan Sugar.

You may know him as the straight-talking “barrow boy” from East London who ran Amstrad…
Or the former chairman of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club who employed Christian Gross as manager… (Not everybody gets it right all of the time!)

I am fan of Lord Sugar because he’s a self made man, and recently I’ve taken some notes from his autobiography. In fact, it’s a great business training from one of the sharpest minds the UK has produced.
So today I wanted to share a few quotes and how they can help you become more successful online…

“It’s what you do in practice that gains you business credibility, not hype or empty promises. I guess it comes down to the old adage: actions speak louder than words”

He’s obviously not seen a Clickbank launch...
But, being serious, it’s true.
I see marketers talk themselves up all day long on Facebook about how they are going to do this and that…

And the next day I see them…
Well, talking about how they are going to do this and that.
How about doing it, instead?

“It’s not what you say, it’s what you do. Time is your greatest friend if you really want to show who you are”

Success does not come overnight but if you are willing to invest the time and effort, it WILL happen.
Too often I see would-be marketers jack it in because they haven’t made a million dollars a week after throwing up a WordPress blog.

“My philosophy was: if we’re going to piss £1m up the wall on a campaign, I want it all spent on the actual advertising; I don’t want a large chunk of the budget wasted on production and creative fees”

Aspiring marketers are hemorrhaging money all over the place on products, memberships and training they don’t need…
While simultaneously NOT doing the very thing they SHOULD be doing to make money…MARKETING!

Incidentally, if you love Lord Sugar’s straight-talking, zero-hype style then this product Revenue Redemption is perfect for you!
It slices through the BS that plagues the industry, and can help you boost your sales conversions by up to 350%
You can get more details here:
http://simplesimonsoftware.com/recommends/GetSmarterOnline

Talk Soon,
Randy
P.S. If you are interested in you need to act fast. Like Lord Sugar, It’s been priced attractively on a dime sale, but it’s going up with every sale!

* Catch Up

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
Randy

* 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

* Catch Up

What to say, One day seems to be rolling into the next way too quickly these days!
Since partnering up with Simon Phillips on LinkSupercharger, Everyday just brings more and more ideas and work for us both!
I suppose that should be a good thing – but anyone who knows me would know I do this to enjoy my freedom, not to make shed loads of cash!
That said – the extra cash has been nice as the whole world seems to be struggling right now! (thank goodness for internet marketing!)

So in catching up – Rachel and I had a weekend camping over Easter (There is a short video of Rachel lighting the campfire on youtube, do listen out for the Girls expressing their requirement for the toilet…lol – that gave us a laugh)
As usual we thoroughly enjoyed getting back to nature, But wow – time went slow in the evenings with just the campfire flames to watch for entertainment after dark!
So I carved a wooden spoon from a piece of willow to pass the time (I uploaded a picture to facebook in case you’re into this sort of stuff ) It was actually quite difficult getting the bowl right without a proper spoon carving knife!

Anyways – Tuesday was back to work and discussing our next project for Simple Software to help marketers, and we’re starting to get excited about it already!
Wednesday had me on another webinar with John Thornhill, and Thursday saw the launch of his best offer yet! – To which Simon and I teamed up and created a fantastic bonus page!
(More on that in a mo)

What happened to the rest of the week?… who knows…lol
Suddenly it’s the weekend again and a friends party tonight, so I’ll move on with the post to show you our Pretty bonus page, and I’ll catch you again soon

Isn’t it great that Spring is here and Summer is on it’s way
Later

* Prettiest Bonus Page Ever, and a GREAT Offer!

Well if you missed my email on Thursday, Now is a good time for me to show off the Prettiest Bonus Page I’ve ever had a part in
I had to say had a part in cos in all honesty, although Simon and I spent 6 hours creating the page – Simon actually did the work and I only instructed him….lol
In typical tech style – he got so anal on getting the graphics and layout spot on, whereas I would have settled for something far less attractive… haha!

But hey – do check it out and see how wonderful it looks!
One Month Mentor Bonus Page
(Opens in a new window)

Did you click and look at it?… If not why not?.. Go On, I’ll still be here in a second or two…. LOL

So what did you think? Regardless if you took us up, I hope you took some inspiration from it and it gives you food for thought when you next promote an offer you truly believe will help your own subscribers and readers!

I know for a fact it will help those who buy John’s One Month Mentor though our link (Here’s the direct link in case you wanted to check his offer),

Not only do buyers get a 90% discount off John’s training – But our bonuses weren’t put together to ‘LOOK’ impressive, but to actually help those taking the training!

Each and every Bonus on that page (Valued at over $3000) was added to benefit and greatly complement the course!
Help with Salespage creation, Squeezepage creation, Video sales pages, List building, Product creation, and even the chance to speak to Simon and Myself – so you get BOTH my Marketing Knowledge AND Simons Techy Expertise!
So although there are other marketers offering a variety products as a bonus – we genuinely believe ours is one of the best ones out there!

And Here’s Why We Did It…..

For One thing, I’ve seen the whole course and have worked with John for the last 18 months ish on some of his programs, So I know first hand that it’s a great course even at the normal $297 price!
But More importantly, Simon started his IM Career paying the $297, and well – considering that lead him to creating his first product, building a list, getting ‘known’ and eventually meeting John and then partnering up with myself, and taking over $6000 in the last few weeks…. I think that speaks for itself!

So the fact that One Month Mentor is coming off the market completely in just a few days, and has a 90% discount as well as our $3K Bonus, should be enough to convince anyone who is yet to get properly started to give it a chance at only $27!

Seriously – as you’ll see on the salespage – it doesn’t matter if you’re,
Frustrated, Honest (like most of us), Sick & Tired, or Overwhelmed – John’s 31 day by day steps will take you from where you are now to having an online business!

You’ll lay your business foundations, Build a solid online presence, Create a hot selling killer product, Expand your profit funnel, Tweak for peak conversions, and Learn to drive targeted traffic!

It’s all detailed on the page, and I would highly recommend seeing the comments in the thread too – for all the people who have already taken the course…. You’ll notice NOT ONE of them is griping at the fact they paid nearly $300 for it and John’s now taking it off the marketer after these last few days at just $27
That in itself should convince anyone on the fence that it’s a great offer!
(And that’s without them having the extra advantage of our complementary bonuses!!!!)

Hopefully I’ve explained why we’ve added such a great bonus package, and to be honest, as well as helping our buyers – it helps us look good in John’s eyes, as well as puts us in with a chance of more exposure through being mentioned on his JV Blog

So there you have it – A Great Offer, with the Prettiest Bonus Page I’ve ever been part of !

What more could you ask for…lol
I look forward to chatting with those who take us up on the bonuses

OH – And BEFORE anyone asks…..
YES – we have already had one buyer who bought TWICE – Just to take advantage of ours and another bonus offering – just shows how valuable the bonuses really are! – so feel free to buy again through our link – but do remember to clear your cookies…lol

Right – time to get Rachel so she can do her 3 hour ‘getting ready to go out’ routine… hehe
Randy
