Most people I talk to don't seem to have a clear idea of what a media buyer does and why they should enlist the help of one. A media buyer, at least a good one, is not only responsible for buying media... Skilled media buyers should be helping you strategically plan your entire campaign. If a media buyer is doing any less than a marketing director would in strategically planning your campaign then you have the wrong media buyer. On a typical campaign that I do media buying for, here … [Read more...]

What’s your most valuable commodity?
May 14, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Commodity is the generic term for any marketable item produced to satisfy wants or needs. My personal biggest commodity that I feel I posses is my time. It is really the most valuable thing to me, in all aspects both business and personal life. In business, time is used to create revenue streams and in turn that improves the ability to spend more time on my personal life and make more money in business. I love it when something gets to "autopilot" , but I don't allow myself to get … [Read more...]

My thoughts on SEO and the Google Changes
May 1, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Unless you don't follow SEO or Google at all, you're probably aware by now that they have been constantly mixing things up with all sorts of algorithm changes. These changes have left people high and dry and many sites that were ranked well before are now nowhere to be found. My response? So what! This is nothing new at all. When I started doing Internet Marketing over 10 years ago now (wow does time fly), my VERY first lesson was not to rely on someone like Google to give me all my … [Read more...]
Is Google Increasing Their Revenue At Your Expense?
April 27, 2012 By Leave a Comment
If you've been following the Google search updates at all, you know that there have been some very major changes in the past few months. High quality sites are getting thrown down in the rankings and everything is getting shuffled up. This isn't the first time it's happened either. In fact, Google's current algorithm is so bad that a legitimate site can be penalized by competitors intentionally trying to de-rank it. This has been tested by some SEOs and proven that it's extremely easy … [Read more...]
What’s the best private Affiliate Marketing training forum?
April 22, 2012 By 1 Comment
I suppose you were probably expecting a post here reviewing the top Affiliate Marketing Forums, but I'm actually on the same hunt as you are trying to find the best out there. Traditionally there have only been a few places to get solid information on Affiliate Marketing beyond what's available for free here and on other affiliate marketing blogs. In fact, there's a reason that we can't post different case studies and exact advertising campaigns on a public blog, because they will get overrun … [Read more...]
You’re running too many traffic sources at once
April 19, 2012 By Leave a Comment
I meet new affiliates almost everyday that have the same problem. They are running far too many traffic sources at once and aren't tracking and optimizing them properly. They have the mindset that they are just going to run X in traffic then figure out what worked, what didn't and then re-think their strategy from there. I personally like to do things a bit different. I like to run a single traffic source, get it down really good, optimize it very well and then and only then move onto another … [Read more...]
How to build a list with viral contest marketing using Contest Domination
April 12, 2012 By 2 Comments
I recently stumbled onto a piece of software called Contest Domination. Basically what it is, is a wordpress plugin that allows you to run a contest. Now, that's not the interesting part. The interest part is that these contests have a viral element to them, you get X points per entry, meaning if you post your link on Facebook, Twitter or tell your friends you get a new entry for every person that joins the contest. So, for example you could give away a free product, software, ebook, … [Read more...]
