My Favorite Self-Help Stuff

Affiliate Defined. Thanks to 13-year old British whiz kid David Wilkerson I think I may finally be able to put my affiliate marketing efforts on the right track. I kid you not!

I meditated this morning, which has brought surprising influxes of cash before, and so I consider it serendipity that I got an excited email from Ross Goldberg, the guru who put on the conference in Vegas I’ve mentioned here recently (I think).

He really knows his stuff when it comes to traffic and affiliate marketing, and so when he was so enthusiastic with recommending this ebook, I checked it out.

And you know what? It rocks. Really and truly. Fantastic info. Written in an accessible and entertaining style. Fun to read!

More on the book on my favorite webstuff blog. I’m trying to reign in the internet marketing stuff in this neighborhood, but since I DO write about prosperity, and this may well be the ticket, here it is.

Go here to find out why I like it so much. You may too!

That was the link for the ebook itself, actually. Here’s the link for my own website, with more detailed comments:

I love Squidoo! Such fun, and all those cool things you can do with them. Best thing since sliced cheese or take-out sushi or whatever else you might like.

BUT: There are a few things to watch out for… They’re really no-brainers once you come to think of it, but if you are the least bit distracted, they might trip you up, just as they have tripped me up until I figured out what went on.

1. When you start a lens, make sure you have enough time for at least 4 modules or so. Why? If you try to leave it like that, Squidoo might let someone else come along and take it over! And after just coming up with a cool lens name, you don’t want that, do you?

2. When you put in links, be sure to remember to put in the http bit! Why? Try to leave it out and watch what happens: Click on the link: It will take you to an “under construction” Squidoo lens under the name of the link and Squidoo will invite you to take it over! Ouch!

3. Remember to publish! I mean, remember to hit the “publish” button. Because if you don’t, your lens will remain exactly like it was before you put in all that hard work with your revision. Ouch again!

Are those biggies? Not for some people. But they can be for you if you think your links lead back to your website and what they really do is invite your hoped-for visitors to build their own Squidoo lens — with YOUR website’s name on it! Not only does this defeat the purpose, it also makes you look unprofessional. (To prevent any such snafus, check out the info below on Bob’s Squidoo Secrets training course.)

And, of course, please do check out some of my assorted Squidoo lenses:

My self-help lens, my new self-help lens, my secret to riches lens, my secret to happiness lens, my Abraham-Hicks lens, and so on.

I’m especially thrilled with the YouTube videos on some of them. I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as I do!

Now if you want become a real expert lensmaster at Squidoo AND be able to use Squidoo to its fullest potential, here’s the full scoop on Squidoo Secrets and you should definitely take a look! I just did and immediately got it. Bob is a GREAT teacher and his Squidoo training is the best!

Well….

I’ve gotten a bit derailed from my mission of putting my info product dashboard to use and creating some dynamite products NOW.

I’ve had some trouble with coming up with the 12 product ideas for the 12-product survey (and clearly, I wasn’t the only one). Plus there was a temporary detour away from my product creation goal and toward building my “list” instead as well as toward promoting other people’s products, including Marlon’s.

But now it’s the new year. And I have a few cool ideas on how to put my favorite dashboard to VERY productive use while short-circuiting (or at least shortcutting) the mountain that seems to appear right up front.

The fact is, sure, we all would LOVE for our first info product to be a huge, and I mean HUGE bestseller. And doing the proper survey increases the odds.

BUT: if the survey stops you from creating a product at all because you can’t get past it, maybe it’s time to just get going without it. Not blindly, mind you, but not with quite so formal a survey.

You can learn a lot from just plain creating a product or two even if that product won’t be that hot stuff best selling product you were hoping for. It may still sell, and it may be the perfect bonus offer, upgrade offer, give-away to build the list offer, or who knows what. Maybe even the perfect Warrior Special Offer where you then can get some feedback and create Your Product 2.0.

The thing I’m trying to get at here is this: Marlon’s dashboard contains such a wealth of information, resources, and how-to steps that you can start at any one of a number of different places and just have at it. You can always do the survey for your next product or the one after that. And by then, you’ll already have a product of ten under your belt, and everything gets easier each time you do it.

So… Stay tuned!

I’m working on a series of articles and postings that will provide you with ideas for smaller, more manageable products to get started with. Products that you can do easily and quickly, with the tools as well as the easy step-by-step directions you already have as part of the Info Product Dashboard.

And I’ll be creating products right along with you

Elisabeth

P.S.: In the unlikely event that you haven’t gotten yours yet, you may want to do so while it still comes with all those cool bonuses. And yes, I totally recommend it.

So maybe it’s a bit more of a good thing than you bargained for, but that’s good, isn’t it? Let’s say you won a million dollars in the lottery. You wouldn’t turn down $950,000 of them because all you need right now is $50,000, right? You’ll be happy to take it all while the getting is good! Same thing with the dashboard.

Marlon’s Info Product Dashboard is simply the most comprehensive and accessible system available anywhere for creating your own product, at an unbeliebably reasonable (bordering on ridiculously low) price once you consider what you’re getting, and once you compare it to the much less comprehensive and much more expensive competition!

So go get your Info Product Dashboard right here, right now:

Happy New Year, Dearest Reader!

You probably have no idea how much I appreciate you.

This blog has been an exciting journey since I started it just a few months ago, and it promises to get more exciting yet.
I thank you for being part of it. For reading my sometimes quirky and definitely quite meandering musings, resources, and recommendations, and for signing up for my newsletter.

I appreciate you for coming along for the ride as I ricochet back and forth between the Abraham, the Law of Attraction, and stress management, between resources for learning how to set up own websites and blogs and even for developing your own product (all in the service of prosperity of course) and a handy quick recipe for impressive chocolate-covered miniature cream puffs (yum!).

The danger with the latter is that now that I know how to make them, I’m constantly tempted to whip up another batch, even when there’s no party in sight that might require their presence. Hmmm. I could make some for my students

You probably know that on the internet, “niche” is king, and, well, this blog is anything but niche. It’s a veritable anti-niche blog, but then, I’m very much an anti-niche person.

When I first came to the United States to go to graduate school, I was absolutely amazed at the range of opportunities in this land of the free. I loved it! This is why I’m still here. This was a land where I did not have to choose either/or but where it was possible to do both/AND, plus then some more. I’ve always enjoyed doing several different things, and so I figurfe why stop now.

So I thank you for reading this and for being part of my blog. Do let me know if there’s something you particularly enjoy, or something you’d like to read (more) about. You can always send me an email at “supportATmyfavoriteselfhelpstuff.com”

If you’re getting my emails, you can also just hit “reply” and I will get your message.

Meanwhile, I wish you (and all of us) much happiness, excellent health, and fabulous success.

Elisabeth

P.S.: And here’s a great big thank you to Erik Stafford, the Faster Webmaster, for teaching me how to build my very first website, without which none of this would have been possible:

I was looking over my posts and suddenly realized that while I wrote a review article about Marlon’s cool new Info Product Dashboard for ezinearticles et al, I completely missed writing about it on my blog!

And right now I’m in the middle of grading piles of papers and exams, so this will have to be short… More to come, though!

Meanwhile, you’ve got to check out Marlon’s video!!!

Anyway, for now, here’s the scoop so far:

If you’re tired of trading time for money (and remember, just how much time have you got that you can possibly trade… does “self-limiting” mean anything to you?), Marlon Sanders’ new Information Product Dashboard is JUST what you need.

What makes it so cool? It’s point-and-click simple, everything you need is included, and so creating your info product is, well, not exactly a no-brainer, but something very achievable.

Marlon basically takes you by the hand and guides you through the process as you work your way along those 36 buttons, units, or modules of the Information Product Creation Dashboard, providing you with all the blue prints, templates, and other stuff you could possibly want right where you need it.

What can I say. I love mine! And if I hadn’t won it, I would have bought mine!

I’m still working on my first product because I’ve been derailed by exam season, but soon, REAL soon, I’ll be getting caught up. And that’s when I’ll write a more detailed progress report.

But you don’t want to wait that long! Go ahead and get yours so you too can start building your own paint-by-the-numbers point-and-click info product. You’ll just kick yourself if you don’t and then find out what you’ve been missing!

And if you’re not a newbie anymore and think you know it all… there are quite a few things in there that you may not know yet — or ways to make things faster, or smarter. Give it a look-see already! This thing has everything I could possibly think of and then some!

Oh, and it has stuff in writing, in graphics, in audio, and video. Plus, of course, the whole process is totally hands-on. It has something for any learning style.

So now it’s time for me to get back to grading papers, and time for you to go take a peek at Marlon’s Info Product Dashboard.

Maybe you’ve hesitated because it sounds just so wonderful that you think it’s worth thousands, and I think it is, but mercifully it doesn’t even costs hundreds. But to find out just how incredibly reasonably priced it is, you’ve got to take a look.

Have an outstanding evening.

Elisabeth

Guess what? I won!!!

Well, that’s me and 4 other people for the regular entries, plus there were 5 more winners with video entries. But still! There were TONS of entries!

I’m thrilled! Made my day. My week!

Visit the winners’ page to check it out in more detail:

Marlon’s Dashboard Contest Winners’ Page

And do take a few minutes to read all the winning entries. Some of them are just brilliant! I especially like the first in the list — Mark Goodwin’s mock sales letter! So cool!

And then the videos!

I can hardly wait till I get my new dashboard — I’ll let you know when it arrives and I’ll be reporting right here on what I think of it too, and just how easy (or not) it will be to create all sorts of cool products. Actually, if his other dashboards are any indication, it should be a breeze. Stay tuned for my first big product launch!

But I bet what you really want is to get a look at the Info Product Dashboard itself, which is out now. And you’ve got to check out the VIDEO!!!

Oh, and it comes with the coolest bonuses. Take a look!

Have a fabulous evening.

Greetings,

Marlon Sanders, my favorite internet marketing expert, has just come up with a brand new dashboard: The Information Product (Creation) Dashboard. Marlon’s previous dashboards are all winners, and this new one promises to be the best one yet!

It takes the intimidating task of developing your own information products and turns it into some sort of connect-the-dots.

That still leaves plenty of room for creativity, in fact, the more the better, but the mundane parts of getting it all done are put almost on autopilot.

The best part: if you hurry, you could get one before everybody else — and without even paying for it. How? You could win one! Just go to…

Well, nooooo, it’s too late for that!

BUT: You can now buy your own Info Product Dashboard with such cool bonuses you’ll be glad you waited:

Check out Marlon’s Info Product Dashboard to see just how cool it is!

All the information you’ll need will be right there!

What would you have to have done to win? Go to Marlon’s blog (follow the link) and write a post on why YOU should be one of the lucky winners. Marlon even added 5 extra prizes for people who post video posts. If you do, your chances of winning will be excellent, plus you’ll get an extra special bonus.

But even if video is a bit much for you (as it is for me), just a regular post would have done. Too late though. But not too late to check out the shiny new Info Product Dashboard…

If posting isn’t your cup of tea, you don’t have to, of course. You can just check out Marlon’s new Information Product Dashboard directly. I think it’s pretty cool!

BTW, one of the (many) things I really like about Marlon’s products: they’re all web-based, so they won’t clutter up your hard-drive, they won’t crash when your computer crashes, and, best of all, they work for PCs and MACs equally well!

We know that one key ingredient to really making some money on the internet and becoming wildly wealthy is having one’s own information products, and Marlon has just made that task a whole lot easier. Look for my new product launch soon

Meanwhile, I’ll keep my fingers crossed!

Would you like more money? Prosperity? All the abundance you can handle?

What’s the block that keeps you from getting there? Most people have the same ones, I discovered when listening to Carol Look’s programs… It wasn’t just me. It’s not just you.

Carol is an expert in EFT, Emotional Freedom Technique, a technique that helps overcome just such blocks. And she’s phenomenal.

I’ll write more about her in an upcoming post, but right now, I just want to point you to her site. She has an amazing newsletter, with a new set of very apropos tapping series to help with prosperity issues. I just got the new one today (a few minutes ago) and wanted to share it with you. It’s working too!

You can find Carol at EFT for Prosperity and sign up for her newsletter and check out her other information. I know you’ll be glad you did.

More later, including some more detail about EFT, one of my favorite self-help tools!

Mystery Expert One will tell you how to grow your own personal money tree.

I also have a VERY special BIG project that I’m currently working on. I just know you’ll be as excited as I am once you find out about it within the next week or two.

I’ll tell you all about it just as soon as I’ve got all the details pinned down. It will be ALL about prosperity, one of my favorite subjects

Have a fabulous day, and enjoy your thank-you gift.

For me, the answer is a definite “Yes, please!”

And if you’d rather not, you can skip right to the Happier Life section…

…while I stay on the wealthy track: In fact, I plan to write several upcoming entries about my favorite wealth consciousness mentors.

Here’s the first one:

Sandy Forster, from Australia, the author of the first book that really got me hopeful and excited about the possibility of turning my finances around in a big way.

Hers is a book with a title so corny that I can hardly believe I suspended embarrassment long enough to actually order it on Amazon.com.

Good thing I did, though, because once I got the book, I didn’t care about the title anymore. It’s been one of my favorites ever since.

So what’s the title? “How To Be Wildly Wealthy Fast”

Yeah, right, I thought, but then I read it, and whoa! This is one terrific book.

You know how we sometimes seem to get mixed messages. On the one hand, we need to think “rich” and “prosperous” in order to manifest it. On the other hand, there are the bills. Ooops. Spending one’s way to prosperity is a little more tricky than I would like it to be.

So what did Sandy do? She wrote this amazing book, with nice short chapters, each of which presenting a step in a process, complete with homework assignments. Those, too, are nice and short and manageable.

Some of those steps have to do with creating a prosperity consciousness. Others deal with more down-to-earth aspects of the process. I might write about some of them in more detail in my newsletter Feel free to sign up to learn more. For a limited time, you’ll even get a great big eboook when you sign up as my thank-you gift.

Back to Sandy though…

Her book takes all those conflicting approaches and combines them into a coherent strategy that has just one inevitable outcome: way more money than before. You don’t even have to do all of the steps, but the more you do, your sooner the wildly wealthy life will appear.

(small print: no guarantees — I’m not a certified financial advisor)

If this sounds a bit like Abraham-Hicks, then your intuition is right on the money (pun intended). In fact, it was Sandy who first introduced me to the work of Abraham in that very book. She also sent me emails about “The Secret” months before anyone else around here (the U.S.) knew about it.

In her book, Sandy shares her own personal story as well. She started out as a single mother on welfare. And now? You guessed it. She lives what she preaches. And makes her living by teaching others how to do the same.

And yes, she sells some very high-priced products too. She also offers lots of freebies, including cool teleconferences and prosperity visualizations during live phone calls. One of her most recent ones happened during the blue moon. I kid you not. She said it would give the visualizations extra manifesting power. How could I pass THAT up?

By now, you’re probably wondering: “How can I get in on this?”

Easy. Just go to Sandy’s website and sign up for her mailing list so she’ll be able to tell you about her free teleseminars and everything else she’s offering.

And feel free to browse around on her website too. There are quite a few freebies, and maybe you’d like even some of her not-so freebies.

So let me give you the link to Sandy’s website again, and maybe we’ll meet on one of her upcoming conference calls.

Meanwhile, if you just can’t wait and want her book right away, you can check it out and get it right here:

Here’s to a wildly wealthy YOU! (and me..)
