My Secret Weapon = Master of Indirect Persuasion, Shaune Clarke

Hi All,

My pal, and copywriting mentor Shaune Clarke finally got his blog up and rolling. To my delight he has chosen to use the Wordpress Blog software. Wordpress ROCKS!!!

The reason I call Shaune “My Secret Weapon” is because…

1. Nobody teaches copyrighting and salesmanship like Shaune Clarke.
2. He has helped me to not only land Copyrighting clients, but has helped me boost the sales of my own products.
3. Shaune makes learning fun, interesting, and profitable.

I’ll admit, his copywriting coaching program is somewhat difficult. This is great though. Who would want to spend a pretty dime for something that was easy?

I’m going to go out on a limb here and make a very bold statement.

Shaune’s skills are right up there with the Carlton’s, Halbert’s, and Kennedy’s.

This is no Bull-Shit. He truly gets it. In fact, there are some things that he does so effectively, it’s better then any copywriter I’ve ever seen.

Just check out his latest post about “Sub Heads”. You’ll find out why SUB-HEADS SUCK!

I don’t waste time learning from just anybody. Since my first day of marketing on the internet, I have constantly sought out the very best in the fields I was interested in. Time is money, and I don’t like to waste either. I’m very good at finding the best of the best.

Thankfully, ever second spent with Shaune has been like taking a field trip to Fort Knox while being allowed to pocket goodies the entire time.

If you are in the marketing arena, you should definitely keep an eye on the “Intimate Thoughts and Rebellious Rants” of Shaune Clarke.

NUFF SAID!

Peace

The Most Valuable Comic Book Ever, And it’s Yours For FREE!

Reading content online can be very BORING, ZZZZZZZZ

But Ultra Underachiever King and Hervey Bay Tuna Fishing Champion Ed Dale makes learning online FUN.

I’m not kidding, this stuff is really entertaining and HERE’S PROOF…

I love football, basketball, and just about all sports on television. I’m a “Sports Freak”. However I’ve noticed many occasions when I was submersed into my computer while the final seconds are ticking away in a playoff football game. I was missing all kinds of great plays because I kept digging into the computer.

There are not many things that will pull me away from Playoff football. Learning content from Ed Dale does.

The endless possiblities that exist online have me entranced. It’s the coolest thing in the world to me right now. When people ask what I do at home, I say…

“Dude, there’s an ATM in my house (the computer), and as long as I push the right buttons on the keyboard, this thing spits out money. It’s the wildest thing I ever did see, I tell ya”.

I really do view working at home in this fashion. More importantly, I have fun while I’m online. If I hated doing this, you wouldn’t see me. If I thought this stuff was too much of a chore, I’d bail. Doing PLEASURABLE things in life is a must.

I’m just unwillingly to work a unpleasurable job. I will admit though, I used to even have fun as a dishwasher. It was a great job. Call me crazy, but that dishwashing job was great. The story is lengthy, but learning to love that dishwashing job taught me a lot about life and happiness.

Thanks to Ed and Frank, working as a Underachiever is Awesome Fun Too.

If your not a regular subscriber to the Underachiever Podcast, your NUTS. I’d sign up for that feed pronto Holme’s Skillet. And once you take a listen, you too might become a fan of what Ed and Frank are doing as well.

Here’s An Phenomenal Example of How Ed Dale Makes Content So Cool.

I want you to peep this Comic Book Ed assembled. It describes the importance of having LEVERAGE.

Click Here For The FREE LEVERAGE PDF COMIC BOOK.

This Comic Book really opened my mind to a lot of ideas during the last few days. In fact, it’s overwhelmed my brain with a GOLD RUSH of thoughts.

I can’t wait to hear every word he has to say about selling our websites in Orlando.

ORLANDO?

Yep, The Big “O” baby. I can’t wait. In about 3 weeks, Ed is going to be teaching a class about selling your websites for maximum cash.

Did you know Ed sold his sites for $5,000,000.00 Dollars? Nope that’s no typo.

His story is remarkable, and one I think anyone interested in internet marketing should listen to. Luckily for you, Ed has provided…

A Selling Your Website Content Page.

I’m talking about

    Videos, Audios, PDF’s, Comic Books

, and good of fashion FUN.

Click here to visit the content page.

ATTENTION:

If any of this stuff interests you, please heed this advice. Sign up for Ed’s Notification List to make sure you get fair warning.

Considering Ultra Underachievers, And Serializer attendees get first dibs at going to the conference, there are not many spots available. We’ve already gobbled a lot of the seats up.

So, I hope to see some of you in Orlando in a few weeks. The best thing about the last event like this was the caliber of people who attended. There were some masterminding sessions like you couldn’t imagine. It really blew my mind, and I can’t wait to be in the presence of so many other like minded enterpeneurs who think similar to I.

Take care, and don’t forget to sign up at.

Holy Shit, I’m Getting Fat! J-Mo’s 21 Days to Washboard Abs

I can’t believe it. For the first time in my life I’m actually getting FAT.

My belly has never had a bulg like this. There’s even folds on my sides when I sit in my computer chair.

FUCK THAT…

There is no way in hell that I’m going to let this computer take over my body. I hereby swear to rid my computer/beer gut, and I’m gonna do it in 21 days.

That’s right, it’s J-Mo’s “21 Days To Washboard Abs”.

How many of you think I can do it? I really need your support. So here’s my game plan.

Day 1) 100 sit-ups
Day 2) add 100 sit-ups, 200 total situps
Day 3) add 100 sit-ups, 300 total situps

You can see the pattern. Of course I should probably abandon the beer, but that’s not gonna happen. Maybe I’ll cut back, but I can do this while still drinking. You’ll see. I honestly cannot believe that I’ve letten my body get into this type of shape. It is very sad, and I’m completely pissed at myself.

There is no excuse for this other then sheer lazyness, and I’m gonna rectify this problem. The truth is, working on the computer all the time is horrible for me. It’s bad for anyone. People are not meant to sit on their lazy asses every day.

So you got to see the before picture, and I’ll show off the after picture in 21 days. Wish me luck, I’m gonna need it.

PS: Okay I admit it, I put on tight pants on purpose to make it look worse then it really is. However, this is still totally unacceptable.

It’s Ed Dale’s Birthday…Underachievers Gone Wild.

Yo Pals,

Today is Ed Dale’s Birthday. Caro decided it would be a groovy idea to start a thread where the Underachievers and Ultra’s could wish Ed a happy birthday.

Bambi sang a Marilyn Monroe rendition of “Happy Birthday”…

Caro has been getting crafty with the video,

Nez had a awesome Beverly Hillybilly’s parody of Ed and Frank,

Jonathon provided some tender animal shots…. ( I think he has a crush on Ed).

And I decided to give Ed a guitar lesson for his birthday. But this is not just any guitar lesson. This lesson describes the Underground method of “70’s Porno Funk”.

Walk the Line with Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon playing Johnny Cash and June Carter

Johnny Cash is a legend.

His tunes will be listened to for decades to come. Even in Johnny’s simplicity, his songs are some of the best out there.

Last night I watched the movie “Walk the Line”. Joaquin Phoenix plays the part of Johnny Cash and Reese Witherspoon plays the part of June Carter. Each does a phenomenal job.

The beauty of the movie was that both sang their own lyrics. This was a risky move if you ask me. To try and replicate Johnny does not seem like a small task. However Joaquin pulled it off like a champ. I was really suprised.

If your a Johnny Cash fan you might be suprised by this movie. I heard lot’s of backlash and trash talking from hard core Cash fans when they heard about the movie. The producers and actors really seemed to do justice on this one.

It’s a great flick….You should definitely watch it if your a music fan.

After watching the movie I scoured the internet looking for the duet “Times A Wastin” but couldn’t find it anywhere. It’s not on the soundtrack, but it’s a great song. Apparantly June Carter sang it with her husband a long time ago and the only recording is not being released by her ex. I’m not sure of the validity of that though.

But I wanted the phoenix/witherspoon version. They rocked that song.

Well after searching the net for a bit, I found a dude who created a remix from the movie and sent me a mp3. It’s not the entire version but it still does the trick.

If you would like a copy, leave me a message.

Lot’s of Buzz about “Blogging To The Bank”. What’s My Take?

Howdy friends,

I’ve been getting quite a few emails from people asking about a new product called Blogging To The Bank“.

Here’s my take Blogging To The Bank by Rob Benwell

I logged into one of my accounts and found a private message from Rob Benwell a couple of weeks ago. He was gracious enough to offer me a free copy of his ebook.

I started perusing through the material (it reads easy and quick) and it seemed ok. I already knew most of the material, but I could see how it could be really useful for someone new to blogging. He explains the process very well.

But…

Then I came to a part that disturbed me a bit. At first glance it seemed like some ridiculous spam. I closed my Adobe Reader and pretty much forgot about it.

A couple of days later a trusted friend of mine asked if I had read Blogging To The Bank. I unethusiastically said “Yeah”. My buddy replied by saying “IT’S GENIUS”.

We discussed the book and I quickly realized I closed the book too soon. I prejudged the content, and dismissed it too quickly. I should have paid better attention.

So here’s the short summary…

If your new to blogging, the book is great. Pick it up.

If your a vet to blogging then most of the info won’t be new to you. However their is one technique alone that is worth the entire price of the book. Of course I’m not going to reveal what it is. I would be giving up the MEAT of the product if I did so.

Let me mention though, this one technique will be frowned upon by some. It’s methods probably won’t be useable forever. However I can understand people who want to make the quick buck.

I prefer to build businesses that have more of a life cycle, but I can’t dismiss the effectiveness of what Rob has put together. If you need a quick injection of cash, Blogging To The Bank could be for you.

Grab a Copy of Blogging To The Bank here.

Living it up…20 Inches at Mt. Hood Meadows

Yeehaa,

Today was such a blast. Alison and I went snowboarding today at Meadows, and the snow was DEEP! Definitely was the best day I’ve had in the last few years.

Alison got mad at me becuase I ducked under the Out-Of-Bounds rope on Heather Canyon.
I just had to. It was complete freshies and almost 2 ft deep. I couldn’t resist. It was worth
risking getting caught by ski patrol.

Had we gotten caught, they are supposed to take our season passes. However, playing dumb
seems to get you by this most of the time.

Descending down the canyon walls with no tracks in front of you is undescribable. It’s almost
feels like your flying. I’ve been waiting for over 3 years to have that ride. Today I got it.

I am truly one blessed kid. The mountain is just minutes away, and I can ride whenever I feel like it. My job totally rocks, even though I do work at least 12 hours a day. I’m extremely grateful for all that I got.

And it even gets better….

The people I have met online have truly opened a whole new world for me. This is definietly the most entertaining time of my life. The skills that are being passed on to me are priceless.

It started with Lynn Terry giving me tips at her forum. Then Ed and Frank taught me the Undies Style. Next Shaune Clarke walked into the picture…

The amount of material I’ve learned from him during the last few months is beyond priceless.

Each day my copywriting gets a bit more ferocious. Sometimes my rants may be a bit provacative, (see yesterday) but hey, that’s me. Actually it’s my blog posts and forum posts that are crazy. My copy is somewhat tamer, but still has some pretty outrageous bits.

One of the best things I have learned from Shaune Clarke’s copywriting program is how to balance the provacative and the serious. There is a time and place for all things, and being aware of it is crucial. If I continually write WILD copy, it may be tough to sell a ebook on Quilting. I think I might lose the poor grandma with my style.

So thanks Shaune, for teaching this young dog some new tricks. It’s the best investment
I’ve ever made online.

Because of all ya’ll super-cool folks, I have the luxury of chillen, snowboarding, and hanging
at the casa instead of heading out to some lame Jobby-Job.

Muchos Gracias Amigos…
