Well this was a first for me and once I settled in, I didn’t want to stop talking. I want to say a big thank you for those of you who took time out and dialed in to listen live. If you missed the interview, George Kedourie has posted it on his site in mp3 format.

This is a list of some online free resources that I use which I mentioned in the interview:

StumbleUpon Toolbar for sending pages to my network of friends when I want to share something with them. Please note that you have to be registered with SU in order to use it. It is also available in IE browser here.

Strip Generator for creating comic strips which are fun to use to add into a post.

Thirty Day Challenge where I met George Kedourie and teaches about how to get free traffic to your blog.

TaggZilla dot com is a follow on from the Thirty Day Challenge and a fantastic resource site for support in with your Internet Marketing.

Off2Trade dot com is a site which you can surf to find free online resources to help your internet experience which have helped me streamline my time online.

HeadSpace2 is a great wordpress plugin for meta-tag generators making it easier to get search traffic for individual posts.

CommentLuv wordpress plugin as it parses the commenter’s latest post from their blog.

PodClass which is a Facebook application for running classes.

Camtasia Studio 3 free download to enable the making of tutorials or videos.

I Want Sandy is a virtual secretary.

Jott - I learned about this from Pearl over at Fresh Perspectives which sounds really great, however it is not available in Australia yet! I’m sure it will help some of you so I wanted to list it here.

I am sure you will all find something useful in this list so let me know what you think of them.

Thanks again to George Kedourie for suggesting this interview.

My daughters love these shoes and I just cannot wear them. I like the crab on these ones. What do you think. Interesting.

Now what would Croc shoes have to do with Copywriting I hear you ask. Well, actually nothing, or not these ones at least. I heard on the grapevine that Trevor “Toe Cracker” Crook, a fellow Aussie, Pay it Forward entrepreneur and the master of copywriting himself, is hosting a free webinar for TaggZilla on the 20th of November. Just a couple of days away and he wants YOU to be there to listen in on how he has helped many clients increase their returns by up to as much as 300% just by changing one letter.

Have you ever wondered why you may be missing out on sales of your products when you put so much work into marketing them? Here is just a little of what Trevor will be revealing in the webinar:

• How adding one single letter to an advert increased results 300%
• How Trevor has written simple 1-2 page letters, several have achieved a staggering 8% response or more just from one letter! Another 2 page letter generated $4.0 million for his client.
• A one word change increased CTR 800% even though his client biatched and moaned and said the word didn’t make sense. Trevor “toecracked” him and said just do it. He’s not biatching now!
• A headline test of similar wording which pulled a 1700% difference in results.
• The 7 second tip which turned a company around $1.6 million in net cash in 1 year.
• The 20 minute phone call which increased sales $2.159 million in 30 days.


Thrilla on TaggZilla

This webinar has been tagged the Thrilla on TaggZilla as Trevor spills the beans on how to achieve this. He says that the words you choose and the words you use, determine how successful you are as an entrepreneur. To his credit, one of his clients headlines was so powerful that it made it onto the David Letterman Show.

To get all the details and register for the event, go here now. I for one can’t wait to hear what he has to say… and if you want to know about the Croc shoes, well you just have to watch the video he released as part of the promo to find out.

Dedicated to Success!

Living consciously involves being genuine. It involves listening and responding to others honestly and openly. It involves being in the moment.

I have to tell you that I have many projects going on at the moment that sometimes, I forget to let you know what’s going on. My work has become quite varied and I am involved in some JV’s which are keeping me very occupied to say the least. Oh… and btw, with Google’s latest PageRank update, my site now has a PageRank 3 which is pretty cool I think… and not only that, but following on from the last article re TaggZilla and ranking #1 with Google, little did I know that when I started with this blog, my other sites, and profiles on many of the social network sites, that I had my own little Site Club going on. They all have Page Ranks now

What this means is that this blog has provided some strength in the importance of all my other sites. So if you are a webmaster and into blogging, having links to all your other sites can improve the chance of building their PageRank as well. I guess that’s what they mean by link building with relevancy to the site. (more…)
