Freebie Coaching - The 30 Day Challenge (not Stephen Pierce)

For those who are interested in doing a free course...

Ed Dale's Free 30 Day Challenge is on again. They're up to Day 21 already so jump in fast www.thirtydaychallenge.com

I highly recommend the 30 Day Challenge especially if you're just starting out or are on a very tight budget. I was first told about it last year by someone who was in the same coaching program as me - we couldn't believe that all this info was made available for free. In many ways it was as good as (and even better in some instances) than that course we were paying US$1,000 for! BTW, I won't say whose course that was (other than to say it wasn't Stephen Pierce) because he does walk his talk and was very generous in his time and feedback and it wouldn't be fair to criticize him just because some of us didn't get what we were hoping for out of the experience.

Back to the topic... WHAT IS THE THIRTY DAY CHALLENGE?In a nutshell... The Thirty Day Challenge is about making your first $10 online. For a full 30 days we are going to be showing you exactly how to start your own Internet business and generate your first income online without spending a dime. That's right, this is going to cost zip, diddly, nothing, nada, ziltch. The entire training program is free, and you won't have to spend a thing to get your business started and begin making money. No credit card required.

The 2007 Thirty Day Challenge has started so head on overto the training section inside the Members area (after you haveregistered) and get started.Ed also created quite a lot of content during the period leadingup to the start of the Challenge which introduces many of the tools we will be using. All of the Pre-Season content is summarized on the following blog post, check it out if you can:http://www.thirtydaychallenge.com/blog/38/summary-of-pre-season-content/


If you've got a passion for internet marketing and want to take it to the next level, you might want to check out Stephen Pierce's coaching program - It's the best I've found.

Coaching Program Software - Driving Traffic to your site

Time to share about some of the great software we receive as part of the coaching program.

There are three main pieces of software I've used so far. Until last week I didn't even know about two of these, let alone realize how valuable they are when you want to create a REAL online business and not just a hobby. Now that I've used these, I don't know how I'd do without them!!

What am I talking about?

There's so much software that Stephen shares with us but for now I'm just focussing on getting started ie setting up your site and driving traffic to your site.

  • FTP software makes it super easy when setting up your site to upload features, plugins (ie programs, new features etc such as Spam protection against robots leaving comments on blogs) etc.
  • Smart Article Submitter allows you to write an article and submit it quickly and easily to as many article sites as you want (literally hundreds of article sites are preloaded & you can easily add more)
  • Smart Forum Promoter allows you to submit postings to many forums easily and fast. You now how normally it's slow and tedious to locate forums, login, follow a thread and then post? Smart Forum Promotor automates this process. Load your favourite 10, 100, 1,000 forums into Smart Forum Promoter, write your posts and it's as easy as clicking the paste button. You can even easily customize your message for individual forums!

Speaking of driving traffic to sites, I just received today an email with another bonus from SMCC and again I'm overwhelmed. It's a website of Stephen's with videos, ebooks and workbooks on different strategies for getting traffic. The videos are in categories and there's roughly about a dozen categories from the quick glance I gave it. I'm leaving it for now, there's just too much information and I'll come back to it later when I finish the PRI$E process.

Hi guys from the coaching program, thanks for your comments. I really appreciate you! It would be great to make this a resource for other people who are wondering whether SMCC is any good so please share what you think of the software.

My First Payment!

I am celebrating my very first internet marketing payment!

Yes, it's for a whole $5.99.

Two things I'm remembering as I celebrate:
  • celebrate like a little kid for at least 16 seconds, jump up and down, dance, yell, just do whatever you need to get it into your mind and body / tell the universe and God that this is what I want, I am thankful and I want to attract more of it
  • Stephen Pierce's "We Succeeded" mp3 talking about how the Wright brothers celebrated flight of 12 seconds

Bye for now, I'm off to continue to dancing to "We Succeeded" that I've got playing in the background.

PS While reading through other people's successes on the SMCC forum I see that Stephen asks people how are they feeling. I'm feeling light, energised, electricity is running through me, it's like I'm breathing more fully. It is a bit like a kid when the circus would come to town, that feeling of fun, joy, pleasure and anticipating - I'm not quite sure exactly what I'm going to be seeing next but I can't wait and I just know it's going to be GREAT!

I just got a glimpse of what it will feel like when I have reached my first financial goal... the way I feel about Cirque du Soleil - that feeling of almost being overwhelmed by the beauty & gratefulness that I have gotten to witness something so utterly magnificent.
