"On The Road Again"

My buddy David Wolfe has a saying… “The Best Day Ever“. In fact, that’s the name of his membership site where he shares all types of incredible health advice, smoothie tips, and how to live the Best Day Ever.

Check out this no brainer cool deal on his membership site here.

Lately, I’ve found myself saying… “Man, this is the Best Day Ever”, and truly meaning it. Things have been superb lately. The amount of gratitude I’ve been feeling for my life, friends, and surroundings has been off the charts. The best part is, it keeps getting better and better each day. I’ve been beyond blessed.

Yesterday my buddy Billy picked me up and we headed out into the Pacific for a quick surf. I hadn’t surfed in almost 2 months and was so eager to catch some waves. I opted for a 7′6″ single fin shaped by our buddy Scottie. It was a good call.

My first wave was of epic proportions. I couldn’t of asked for anything better. That moment instantly became “The Best Day Ever”. I think I actually sported wood in my wetsuit.

I almost didn’t think I’d catch the wave. After no surfing in weeks, my arms were already tired just from the paddle out. I really need to work on the sissy factor. 3 sessions and it will be gone. Anyhow, this perfect left picked up really nice and I was positioned right in the pocket. I had to go.

I ended up getting a late drop as the wave was peeling over and almost drilling me. I took the drop and slightly angled left to avoid the curl from sucking me in. Then I got out in front of the wave, picked up speed and did this beautiful left bottom turn. Since I’m goofy foot the entire face of the wave was right in front of me and I proceeded to glide back up the top of the wave and laid down another big carve towards the top of the wave.

I almost went too high up on the wave and let it pass me by. Luckily for me, I leaned right and forward, started pumping as hard as I could and got another drop back into the wave and basically repeated the same move.

It was “The Best Day Ever”.

I’m back. California, I missed you so much. Friends, I missed you too. So happy to be home for a while.

Anyhow, lately I’ve been saying to myself… “this is the best day of my life”. And I’ve been saying it alot. It seems that things just keep on getting better and better and better. But here’s the thing… When you say “this is the best day ever” or “best day of my life” it doesn’t negate all those other days in the past. It’s not like you have to compare one to the other. You simply add all the other past days to todays experience.

The reason why today is “The Best Day Ever” is because of all the days in the past that allowed you to make it to this specific moment. And if you are appreciative of each of those days, the learning, the growth, the people, etc, everyday can truly be The Best Day Ever.

Soon, you’ll find yourself saying… “This is the best smoothie ever”, or, “She’s the best girlfriend ever” or “He’s the best dog ever” because you’ll have so much appreciation for each and every moment you are here on this earth and surrounded by people that love you.

Sounds a little hippy and airy fairy right? Damn right it does. And it feels great!

Anyhow, lots of people have asked me why I came back to the west coast. There are a few reasons but one of the major ones was because I wanted to attend David Wolfe’s Longevity Conference in Costa Mesa California near the end of this month.

I went to the one 2 years ago and it was nothing short of amazing. The glow in the people’s eyes, the love in their hearts, and the vibrance in their touch was something you have to experience. Not only was the company awesome, but the content being shared was off the charts. You’ll learn some hard core, futuristic type stuff when you hang with David Wolfe and crew.

So, I can’t wait for the next Longevity Conference and I invite you to join me if you’d like to hang out with some of the most amazing people on the planet.

Simply click here for the Longevity Conference and I hope to see you there.

Cheers

Jason

PS: I don’t think there are many seats left for this event. So if you delay too long you may miss out. You don’t want to miss this. Trust me. It will change your life and those around you.

Last night I had the chance to see the Beatles Cirque Du Soleil show Love. Let’s just say I “LOVED IT”. It was an all around incredible evening.

I had seen KA before at the MGM Grand and thought it was pretty amazing. But this show was much more fun! If you’re ever in Las Vegas I highly recommend stopping by the Mirage and checking out the show. It’s pretty spendy, but well worth it if you can fit it into your budget.

Here’s a quick teaser of the evening. The video doesn’t do the night justice but it gives you a glimpse of the fun…

Last year I visited Maui Hawaii with Frank Kern and his Plastermind team. We all stayed at the Four Seasons in Wailea and if you’ve ever been there, you know that it’s one of the best hotels on the planet.

The employees are exceptionally attentive and will even come by and spray your face with water and wipe down your hands with soft towels. Then they’ll give you just about anything you ask for (with a hefty bill of course). “Charge it to Frank’s room is my motto”. Just kidding, kind of.

Anyhow, living the life of luxury at the Maui Four Seasons is no cheap week long trip, even if you consider yourself pretty well off. It’s down right spendy. However, thanks to the 4 Day Cash Machine the trip was basically

free. In fact, I profited on the trip.

DISCLAIMER: I totally butchered the 4 Day Cash Machine and it still worked. Also, I switched it up a bit because I was in Maui for 7 days and I couldn’t figure out how to edit my website from my Mac.

So get this…

Want to make even more money on a 4 Day Cash Machine? It’s simple…

Run a 8 Day Cash Machine, or 7, or 6. By leaving the order button open a few extra days I pocketed a few thousand more dollars and basically got a free trip to Maui.

Thanks Frank.

Cheers

I’m currently typing this from the frigid tundra of Flagstaff Arizona. It’s supposed to get down to 20 degrees tonight and propane is getting low. Uh oh. I should be able to make it through the night and depart to Vegas in the morning (Geez, I’ve been in Vegas a lot lately). I should have a video up here by Saturday evening.

Anyhow, I’m creating this post because my good buddy Frank Kern is about to release a new product called “List Control”. It’s all about building and monetizing a email list on the internet. (You know, the stuff that actually makes you money).

I want to get your feedback about what I should offer as a List Control bonus that you could use and implement in your business?

Also, I need your help because I really, really, really want to be the top affiliate for this promotion. And if you can help me do that, I’m going to cut a check to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital for $25,000.

Please let me know any thoughts or ideas you have. I’m all ears.

I’ve already come up with a wicked set of stuff that I’ll be hooking you up with if you decide you would like my materials. However, I’d like to add more to make this offer such a no brainer that anyone who wants this course would opt for this bonus.

I’ve created a page that has all the details about this bonus (I’ll be adding to it every day). You can visit the site at…

Thanks again.

Stoked to see some beautiful scenery again (and snow!).

In this course, Michael Sandel speaks about philosopher Immanuel Kant and challenges Harvard students with difficult moral dilemmas and asks opinions about the right thing to do. He then asks everyone to examine our answers in the light of new scenarios. The results are often surprising, revealing that important moral questions are never black and white.

Admittedly, I’ve never been a very big Elvis fan. However, I was keen on visiting Graceland and finding out more about the man that is so loved throughout this world.

My mom and many of my girlfriends were huge admirers of The King. So, I figured I’d check out what it was that made these ladies go gaga over this guy.

After taking the tour of Elvis Presley’s Graceland mansion, I have a deeper appreciation for the man and his contribution to the music world. Below is a quick slide show that I created after doing the Graceland tour.

If you are ever in Memphis Tennessee and would like to see where Elvis and family lived, check out his site at www.Elvis.com .

On Saturday morning, I broke up with alcohol. I really hope we don’t get back together. Our relationship has been a love/hate one, but I don’t have too many grudges or regrets.

It was fun alcohol. It really was. And I want you to know, we can still be friends. I don’t hate you or anything.

The breakup didn’t come from a hangover. I didn’t do anything stupid last night.

The truth is, I want to feel higher than what alcohol provides. I love a good buzz, but I’m even more fond of a great buzz! And to be blatantly honest, I’m a bit afraid of numbing and damaging the one thing that helps me have leverage in life. My brain.

Luckily I’m not a alcoholic. I like to drink beer, but I’ve never needed to drink. I’m a fun drunk, never violent, and am smart enough to give up the keys to my car when intoxicated. I wish everyone could be that way.

In the end, my deciding factor to split up with alcohol is because I want to experiment with a sober streak combined with a massive intake of superfoods. The smoothie’s I’ve been creating lately make me feel 5 times better than any beer ever does.

My brain functionality is greatly enhanced when I eat and drink well. And it’s not only me. Numerous of my friends are on this superfood kick. Most of us aren’t die hard hippies who only eat salad and nuts. We eat a bit of everything but make sure to incorporate some superfoods to give our bodies a fighting chance.

Anyhow, Saturday morning I was listening to some info from my buddy David Wolfe and it really jolted me to get my ass in gear. David has a keen ability to do this. Every time I listen to his stuff it blows me away and leaves me eager to know more.

However, what’s better than book knowledge or just acquiring the info is actually implementing raw superfoods into your life. You have to experience it to truly know what I’m talking about. Nothing else really cuts the mustard.

So, to get some more information and to see how it’s changed a bunch of our lives, I want you to watch this quick video with David Wolfe and Frank Kern. Simply click the banner below and you can peep this video.

David has truly changed many of our lives. I am super pumped to call him a friend, and a inspiration. Check out his stuff, it’s that good…

ATTENTION: I’ve edited this blog post and removed my link to Jay’s product. It really wasn’t fair for me to write a post like this, put the blog reader into a totally bad frame of mind about a particular type of video, and then send them to exactly what I was just bickering about.

The point of this blog post was not meant to be so much about the specific product, but the practice, the effectiveness and the feelings from the community. You.

I was really interested in multiple testing statistics. And boy did I get them. However, I SEVERELY skewed those statistics by writing this blog post and then directing traffic in the manner I did. And because my blog kicks ass, I rank really well in the search engines for all kinds of terms related to his product.

Therefore I’m gonna delete any mention to his product because I just don’t think it’s fair for someone to see this post first, and then see his sales pitch. Seems like a dick move. And I really want the best for him.

Truth is, I’m really pumped that he took the time to make that video. It took a lot of balls. A ton. And guess what? It really did work like Gangbusters! More so then he ever expected. What’s a guy to do? Take down a video that is lining his pockets with a ton of cash? That’s what we are in this game to do if I’m not mistaken. Of course this goes without saying a worthwhile product is being delivered.

And in the whole mess of controls, or no video controls, content, no content and frustration we kind of lost sight that Jay is selling a product and method that has worked really well for him, and he’s willing to share.

I have much more to say on this topic. It’s been extremely interesting, educational, frustrating and profitable (for many of us). I really have some amazing ideas about this whole topic and mind set, but not sure how to formulate it all. I do look forward to discussing it further.

Okay, here’s the post today (with a few edits) that started the barrage of comments. Thank you everyone who chimed in. I only ask everyone keep an open mind, and ask yourself… “why” as often as you can.
……….
……….
During the last 6 months marketers have been exposed to a new kind of video that not everyone is fond of. Even I hated this tactic when I first saw it, and to this day I’m still not overly excited about it.

However, being a marketer and a astute observer of human behavior I’m able to set aside my personal preferences at times and see through the eyes of others who may think differently than myself. I also keep a close eye on the profits generated from a particular tactic.

Here’s where the controversy kicks in. A large amount of people HATE these types of videos and here’s why…

1. There are no controls except for a pause button. You can’t rewind or fast forward. (I know, it’s a bitch)

2. They are basically just slide shows that don’t present a whole lot of information or content. Instead they tell stories, show earnings, tease you with desire and bait you into wanting something that you can’t yet have.

3. You can’t see the price until the video is nearly done.

4. And a host of other things.

I hate to say this, but if you start educating people too much about your product in the sales process you’ll lose a lot of orders. Instead of focusing on the product features and all the bells and whistles of the products, many smart video creators do something different.

They future pace the experience you are going to have once you buy and implement the product. They display the life that you “COULD” have. They force you to imagine what might happen if you just do what they did or said in the video.

And guess what? It works. In fact, it works better than showing people exactly what they are getting in most instances. Lame, I know. But hey, I’m not operating on emotions here. I’m simply observing.

Think about all the late night infomercials you see on the television. Do you ever actually know what you are getting? Of course not. All you know is you’re getting “The System” that has worked for so many others. (Or at least that is what they tell you).

Anyhow, there are a bunch of lessons to be learned from these types of videos. Whether or not you’re willing to sit through 30 minutes of slides shows and a well orchestrated voice over is another matter in itself. If you do, I suggest you take notes.

Here’s another reason I believe these videos work so well. They literally force you to sit through the sales process. A wise direct marketer will take you through a series of steps to warm you up to the sale. Many call the process AIDA. Most marketers or copywriters are familiar with this process. It’s…

A = Attention
I = Interest
D= Desire
A = Action

This is nothing new in the marketing world and the formula has been used for a long time. The point is, when you are forced to sit through these videos the producer now has a chance to address each one of these steps without losing your interest. You can’t skip around the salesletter to view the testimonials. You can’t click the order button to see how much it is. And you can’t find out how much longer it’s going to be available.

You’re essentially held hostage if you want to find out more info. And this pisses some people off.

Personally I think it’s silly to get mad. No one is forcing you to watch. However, once you invest 10 minutes, you sort of want some type of reward for spending your time watching. You want something. Anything. Especially since the video usually promises to reveal something big, yet you have to wait forever for it.

So I’m curious. How do you feel about these type of videos?

Have you ever seen one? If not, email me at profitmoffatt at gmail and I’ll show it to you.

Have you ever used one yourself? What were the results? Ever promoted one as an affiliate? I’d love to hear how that worked out for you as well.

While I’m not a huge fan of being forced to watch a 30 minute video, I am considering using this sort of video in the future. I think I’ll make my video only about 15 minutes and I’ll include more pictures and entertaining video as opposed to just slides. I think that will do a bit better then just a powerpoint presentation. I could be wrong though.

Anyhow, would love to hear your opinions on these videos. Let me know in the comment sections below.

Cheers,

Jason

Check out the video if you haven’t yet.

I made a a stop on the Gulf Coast of Florida because I was duped into believing a surf report that some ridable waves were in the future. I should know by now that putting my faith in the surf forecast is a bad move.

The waves came, but the only ridable ones were at about midnight on Sunday evening. A wicked rain and lightning storm hit at about the same time. If I weren’t afraid of sharks, and had a buddy with me to surf I may of tried a night surf. Not this time.

Despite missing out on the surf I have had a pleasant time hanging out in Miramar Beach. There isn’t a whole lot to see here other than the white sand beach, but I was fine with my stay.

One cool thing I’ve been experiencing is that people at RV Parks are super nice, adventurous and love to share travel stories. Most of them are retired older folks, but they have the spirit of a 12 year old playing little league. They really enjoy fun. And I’ve really enjoyed getting to know quite a few of them as well.

Anyhow, I loaded up a few photos from my iPhone and a couple vids from the camera and made this quick Animoto video. If you’ve never used Animoto, give it a shot. It’s super easy and pretty fun!

Oh, hell yes baby. Some micro waves actually came the day after I put this video together. They were only knee high but I was able to yank out about 12 of em. Not too shabby. It somewhat cured my jones for a couple of days at least.

I think in the next day or so I’ll head down to Cocoa Beach and try to score some waves with my pal Eric Farewell. Wish me luck.
