Ian Traynors Retirement Package – A Must See!
Posted by: | CommentsPhew! Two quickfire blog posts inside a few days eh? Must be important.
Well, actually I reckon it is.
In this sometimes cynical, sometimes false, Internet Marketing world that we are all living in with its immoral subject lines, attempts to deceive and downright shady actions by some it is always a real pleasure when you meet and develop a relationship with one of the good guys in the realm.
Fortunately I have met a few BUT there really has been one gentleman who stood out, head and shoulders above the rest.
When I purchased a product via a bonus link provided by Mr IanTraynor, part of the bonus was his help with parts of the product.
And for several weeks we had a bit of banter too and fro.
Ian made every attempt to help me as often and the best that he could.
How many times have you sent an email to a big “InternetMarketer”? (And Ian may not be the biggest name but he was a big hitter as you will see) and received a reply that really doesn’t cover an ounce of the points that you raised in your email.
Most of the time it is unlikely that anyone has even read your email let alone took the time to go through the points and address them individually.
Well, Ian did and would and for that I was grateful.
So why am I telling you this?
Simple. Mr Ian Traynor has decided to “retire” from the Internet Marketing scene as he has reached, what is regarded, as the traditional retirement age.
And he has collected ALL of his amazing products together and packaged them up, THEN he has went to some of his big IMbuddies and asked them for some gifts to give as bonuses.
Now,check out some of these names – Simon Hodgkinson, Jeremy Gislason, Randy Smith, Dave Nicholson, JP Schoeffel, Edmund Loh, Jason James, Andy Michaels and Mark Hendricks.
Woooaaahhh There Nelly! Did I really put MY name in amongst those distinguished, well known, successful marketers???
Well Yessiree Bob. Ian was kind enough to ask me to contribute and I gratefully accepted.

Belated Welcome To Dave Nicholson Students
Posted by: | CommentsAs I feel that it is important to continue to move forward in this business of IM I wanted to continue to have a coach or a mentor, someone to whom I can look upon and to emulate and learn from.
And also to help me take my business to the next level.
But additionally I did not want to take myself down a different path that was already taught to me by my previous coach – Alex Jeffreys.
Here’s a random picture of me and Alex in Bristol
My Attempts At Getting Organised!
Posted by: | CommentsThis week I had to pay to keep the domain name
http://www.andy-michaels for one more year.
This means that I have now had my blog up and running
for one whole year. Personally I find it incredible that
I have managed to keep that going.
Admittedly there always seems to be large gaps between
posts and I have said many times that I intend to post
more often but have always failed to do so.
But, wow. What a year I have had.
I Quit…..
Posted by: | CommentsThat’s right. I did.
That is what I told my boss recently as I have just had enough of working for, well, let’s face it, idiots!
The only idiot I am responsible to now is myself. (Wouldn’t get away with calling the wife an idiot!)
And because I still hadn’t put a video on my blog I decided to make a quick vid and stick it on here before I changed my mind.
I haven’t edited it or added anything, I just rolled the camera, blurted some stuff out and put it up here. Just to get me over that mental block I had about posting video of myself.
So here it is. Go easy on me!
Speak Soon!
The Bristol Experience Continued….
Posted by: | CommentsSo after a great opening salvo of chatting and getting to know some major IM players on the Thursday night after a few hours sleep it was time to do a bit of learning at the opening of the LFMpire Seminar.
Robert Puddy and Donna Fox opened the proceedings. Donna is a very good speaker and focused on our reasons for wanting to succeed in Internet Marketing. I actually found this bit rather interesting as it reminds you that we all effectively have the same reasons and goals – Financial freedom, looking after family, more time with the kids etc.
To be honest, everything comes from having enough money to be comfortable. If you have money then you have time and then you can do with that time anything that makes you happy.
I’m not a money motivated guy but I am motivated by having the freedom to do whatever I want, whenever I want and for my family to do the same!
The subject of Donna’s presentation is something I think I may go into deeper in another post or perhaps a report but she discussed the 4 P’s of marketing, the 6 C’s of traffic and the 7 requirements of a successful e-commerce business.
So what are they Andy I hear you cry…..Well, as I said. I think I’ll leave that for another post or even a quick course. We’ll see.
I’d rather tell you about the great folks I met.
At the end of that day we had the VIP Dinner. At this we had the opportunity to chat to each of the speakers in turn. Again I’ll come to them in turn.
Then once the dinner was over it was back to the bar and I got to have the craic with some great guys.
I got a chance to meet up with some more guys that I had only either read their stuff, bought their products or on the odd occasion spoke to on Skype.
I mentioned Tony Newton of Blogflipz notoriety. Tony’s a great bloke with a bright future:
Especially as he is now working with one of my favourite marketers, and someone whom I effectively travelled down to meet and that’s Tony Shepherd.
It was great to meet the two Tony’s and I ended up spending a fair amount of time with them both as they have the same principles and morals as I hope to run my business with, not to mention that Mr Shepherd is living the life that I hope to emulate.
And as the law of attraction states, if you associate with the successful then you have more chance of being successful yourself. And I have every intention of doing so.
And if I can, then believe me, anyone can so I hope you stick with me and we can grow together!
Bristol Visit Changes Life! How Many Folks Will Ever Say That?
Posted by: | CommentsWow! Where do I start?
This has been a truly excellent week for me and I wanted to share my experiences with my regular readers.
Several weeks ago I was chatting to Tony Shepherd on Skype, who mentioned to me that the LFM Workshop in Bristol was taking place in May. I decided right then that I would be doing my best to attend this event, especially when Tony told me of the marketers who would be attending.
And due to the continuing uncertainty caused by the volcanic ash cloud I decided that my best course of action would be to drive to Bristol. Now I knew that it was an 8 hour drive but even if it had been 20 hours it wouldn’t have stopped me.
And boy, am I glad that I went!
By the Thursday evening I knew that the whole journey and initial expense had been worth it.
I got a chance to meet up with my online buddies James Howard and Sean Beardmore, great to meet you guys!
I had an excellent chat with Cindy Battye of Affiliate Silver Bullet and Clickbank Pirate fame. (sorry about the quality of some of the photos)
I also briefly chatted to JP Schoeffel (SiteProfitBot amongst many others) and the promoters Robert Puddy and Donna Fox .
But perhaps, most importantly for me, I met and chatted to Phil Henderson of StupidlySimpleSEO.com. The information that he had for me could be the difference between hundreds a month and thousands a month. I will pass this info on to you all in due course once I have tested it out a bit more.
And other than Phil, the one guy who certainly knows how to make an impression is the unbelievably entertaining Jonny Andrews. He spent a bit of time telling me about his adventures in Aberdeen as a student. By the end of it the whole bar had gone quiet as Jonny was so loud. I was in stitches with it, and the story was just as funny on Saturday night as well.
And that was just Thursday night!!
I want to share with you some of the info that I learnt from the speakers including Omar Martin, Sterling Valentine, Simon Leung, Martin Avis, Jani G amongst others as well as tell you about the good friends that I have met and made including Tony Newton of Blogflipz fame and David Chamberlain (Remember that name) as well as some of the main players like John Thornhill, Dave Nicholson, Alex Jeffreys, Matt Garrett, Soren Jordensen….the list goes on.
And let me tell you. These guys can drink!!
I will share more over the next couple of days as well as a personal revelation (or revolution) for me. There is just so much to tell from an incredible 4 days.
Stay Tuned!
Launches Are Like Buses. Wait Ages For a Good One Then Two Come At Once!
Posted by: | CommentsYou wouldn’t think that it would be the most difficult thing in the world to do.
Just make a blog post every few days, documenting whats been going on in your business. Well I have failed again! LOL.
Its amazing how time flies by in this business.
Now it just so happened that as soon as I had made the pledge to cut down on my emails that I had 2 consecutive launches that I wanted to be involved with.
The first was Alex Jeffreys Coaching Program 3.0.
As you can imagine I felt very well placed to promote this product as it is due to joining Alex’s 2.0 program that I am here today. I’m certainly not going to go into what Alex can do for you and whats in his course again but all I will say is that if anyone was considering it but it turned out to be too expensive then he is now offering a payment plan.
It is about to close so if you’re interested then you’d best go now!
The other launch was from another AJ student.
I remember Matt Wolfe when the AJ program started. He was a very knowledgable guy, very helpful to all of us on the forum but he actually wasn’t making much money online. He was just like the rest of us in that sense.
But he really has had amazing success in those 7 or 8 months. He now earns 5 figures a month and shows no sign of slowing up.
But more importantly, over the whole process he documented each step he took and decision he made.
So if you have ever wanted an opportunity to see the Alex Jeffreys method in action accompanied by a workable step by step plan of how Matt made his money (and how you could too. You just need to COPY him. ) then here it is.
Matt’s product is called Autopilot Cash Formula and launches on Thursday 15th April and I have a bonus package for it available here => Autopilot Cash Formula Bonus Package
But that’s it for launches from me for a few weeks. There has just been too many recently.
It’s important that if you do buy one of these products that you learn from it AND TAKE ACTION!
That’s the only way that success will follow.
Best Regards
Andy
Every Day’s A School Day!
Posted by: | CommentsBlimey O Reilly. Its the 23nd February and I haven’t posted here since the 8th January. That is very naughty of me. So that’s what, 6 weeks of stuff to tell you about!!
Ha ha, I won’t do that but I will try to fill you in on how things are going for me and what I have learnt in those 6 weeks.
I did think that I should start to put more informative posts on my blog. You know the kind. How to fix z problem, How to get y traffic, How to put x on your blog. But actually. That’s really not me.
I find it easier just to talk about what has been going on with my business. The thing is I know that most people aren’t interested in me personally but if they can see that I can go from zero to where I am now and pick up some useful tips or incentive then that’s good enough for me.
So whats happened in the last 6 weeks?
Sticking to my IM business alone and not the fact that my 2 month old son has absolutely blown me away and made me feel more content that at any time before then things have been going well.
For the first month ever I am actually in credit. I received my first Clickbank payout of $572.46 as well as a few Paypal payments to add up to over $600 in commissions. And I’m due another $300 plus already. This is a monumental achievement for me and has given me the confidence that I absolutely WILL be successful at this.
I have continued to grow my list which now stands at over 2,500 and I have just launched my 2nd product to giveaway which is called “On The Double” Product Creation. Here’s a look at the ecover.
If you want to learn how to create products in double quick time then please just add your name and email address to the form below the picture and I’ll get it straight over to you.
I’ve also learnt to think more like a marketer than a customer. Its a strange feeling to be more involved on the inside looking out than on the outside desperate to get in.
Most importantly I have learned that anyone can succeed in this business if they are prepared to follow the tried and tested methods, stick at it and persevere, even when things are looking bleak.
I’m going to become a full-time IM’er (well 10 hours a week but no other job) and I’d like to help as many people as I can do it as well. If you sign up to my newsletter via any of the opt-in forms that you see on the blog, and just reply to one of my emails then if there is any way that I can help you at all I’d be very pleased to do so. (ahem, within reason people!)
I keep saying it but this is just the end of the beginning. The good times are still to come!
And Oh yes, I’ve learned today that you shouldn’t suck too many max strength sore throat relief tablets unless you want your whole mouth to go numb!
Have A Good Day!
