Hear Newbie Rosanne Talk on Making $12,000 in 3 Weeks

Have I told you about a newbie, Rosanne?

Rosanne made $12,000 in 3 weeks and has been a great inspiration to us all.

A dear friend of hers has MS and cystic fibrosis and Rosanne wanted to help ease their money stress so that was her motivation. She did it without a website, just by using one of the techniques Stephen teaches. Now she's frequently making $1,000 a day. Rosanne recently shared her story (without giving away any of her secrets) to our Mastermind group and they were asking her questions for ages!

You can even download our Mastermind group recording - Rosanne talks for the last 20 minutes or so before we crashed the server and the recording is cut off. :)

Newbie Student of Stephen's Makes $1,000 in 12 days

I love sharing these success stories! I haven't met Gene yet but I so love hearing these success stories.

Miracle Happens!

I was so tired of not earning money from the internet, that i decided to jump on the first affiliate program that came my way.

It was on the 8th of November i signed up as affiliate for an options trading program and within 1 day i got 1 sale (USD$87 per month, recurring), on the 15th and 19th, i got another 2 sale of USD$87! (recurring)

And on the 20th, someone paid for the yearly subscription (so i bagged an additional ~USD$864 for my 4th sale - yearly recurring). Though recently someone asked for refund, I'm left with 3 sale again, but I made in total > USD$1000 in less than 12 days.

I am so grateful to be working with Stephen and the rest of Alpha Leaders in UYMG KL in October, immersing myself with the other successful internet marketers from various background has helped me realize and believe beyond doubt that it is very possible to achieve financial freedom through internet marketing."

PS This audio flowed on beautifully from a 2 hour webinar that Stephen ran for his smart marketing coaching club students immediately prior to recording this free message on DT Alpha. If you thought those 9 minutes were great, just imagine what 2 hours is like! (And we've got another 2 hours with Stephen in a few hours - If you want to know what his coaching program is like, have a read of some of my early posts)

Latest Coaching Program Update - 23 Expert Traffic Tactics

Stephen and the Smart Marketing Coaching Club team definitely deliver on their promises.

It seems like almost every week there's something extra for coaching club members and the latest is a series of webinars on creating FREE Traffic. That's right, none of that wasting time and money on Google paying for traffic that my other coaches encouraged me to do. We're talking using smart effective ways of finding people who want what we've got!

The goal is to get everyone up to getting a minimum of 100 unique visitors a day. I've already achieved that goal just using some of the Social Bookmarking techniques Stephen teaches and I still learned HEAPS from the very first webinar, let alone the other 2 he did last week.

Now Stephen had us promise not share the details so you're just going to get teased with the headlines. This list of 23 Expert Traffic Tactics wasn't covered in one session - each one of these is explored in detail, giving us a map of the whole process for each one plus examples and websites.

23 Expert Traffic Tactics
 Affiliate Traffic
 Article Traffic
 Banner Traffic
 Black Hat Traffic
 Blog Traffic
 Classified Ad Traffic
 CraigsList Traffic
 Directory Submission
 eBay Traffic
 eZine Traffic
 Facebook Traffic
 Forum Traffic
 Joint Venture Traffic
 Linking Traffic
 MySpace Traffic
 Podcast Traffic
 PPC Traffic
 Press Release Traffic
 Search Engine Traffic
 Social Networking Traffic
 Social Shopping Traffic
 Squidoo Traffic
 YouTube Traffic


Stephen said we'd be spending roughly 45 minutes on each one but we spent well over an hour, even an hour and a half on these.

We did 3 of these last week (one a day) and will be doing more next week when Stephen returns from overseas. He's just left Australia where he presented at Mal Emory's event and is now about to present at a Christopher Howard event in the UK.

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.

Celebrating 2 weeks in coaching program - My Statistics so Far...

It's now been 15 days since I started this journey & 10 days since my site first went up.

As requested here are my stats - not sure if you can quite make them out but I've had over 5,000 hits & 364 visitors ( yes a bit over half of those are me working on my site) but I'm pretty thrilled that people are already finding my site without me doing any real active promotion yet.

I love these stats. Any real internet marketers please ignore this paragraph - I'm a newbie who gets excited over all aspects of success! Or you can have a listen to what Stephen Pierce talks about how the Wright Brothers at Kittyhawk celebrated even the smallest amount of success. (If you don't know what I'm talking about check out my previous posts about Momentum Mixx mp3s and the You Tube videos.) You just know I'm going to go crazy the first time I get a check, don't you!?!

Stats - 3 weeks

• 5,000+ hits
• 122 unique visitors without any active promotion (that's the step I'm currently working on)
• people in 11 countries have been reading what I've written (and as you can tell, I love to write :)
• www.organiclivinglifestyle.com is linked from 19 external pages! And from sites I don't even know about!!

I was so excited tonight, I was looking for organic blogs as part of my research and I was absolutely thrilled to see that my site has made it to the 2nd page of Google already (search "organic living + blog") Ok, I know that's a pretty defined search but hey, I'm celebrating the baby steps!

My main goal in time for next Thursday's Mastermind meeting is to come up with an idea to really get the word out there about my site... Some way for it to become viral and really take off and build my list. I want this to really take off so by Christmas I've hit my first milestone.

Thank you everyone for your wonderful feedback! How awesome to be featured on SMCC's blog http://www.smartmarketingclub.com/blog/?p=29#comment-8 Tanady, I'll keep coming back and posting my stats for all to see. I don't claim to be anything outstanding - I haven't spent much time on this during the week, lost my focus a bit but I'm determined not to be one of those people who will still be whinging weeks from now. I very much want to be one of the people that are so excited about what they're doing that they don't have time for complaining.

I've gotten a bit bogged down the last week on fiddling with my site, changing different aspects, adding plugins. A few days ago I didn't even know what a plug in was and now I'm finding myself going through the SMCC forum looking for everyone's great tips on which Plugins are most valuable for preventing Spam, robots etc as well as helping people who are looking for info on organics to find my site.

Enough sidetracking though! I'm going to finished Phase 4: Promotion of the new PRI$E system by my 3 week anniversary. That then just leaves me Phase 5: Cash Injection System and then I'm finished PRI$E.

From there, I'll go back into Stephen's normal course and go through those steps. There's something called SOP that I've heard several times but don't really know what that's all about yet.

SMCC Mastermind group - Gold Coast

Yesterday I got to meet with the Gold Coast members who have recently joined Stephen Pierce's coaching program too. I found out that I have been extremely lucky to have gotten the PRI$E system. They joined just a few weeks earlier than me and didn't receive it. Remember me mentioning that I had been frustrated with the delays but I felt that everything happened for a reason? Well, this is my proof.

By meeting with the others I got to share some ideas and a solution to a common problem we'd been experiencing AND I got so many ideas and tips from the others. They told me about solutions to problems that I hadn't even come across, saving me lots of time. (Thank you Karen Isitt, you are a treasure!)

What a valuable resource these meetings are. A place to share experiences and successes, get solutions to problems and brainstorm ideas.

To give an unbiased perspective of SMCC coaching, the biggest frustrations seem to be that it does take longer than the 30 minutes a day Stephen indicated and also getting support on problems. My take on this is that you spend a lot of time fiddling with the details but let's just get on with it, get it done and can always go back and perfect it later on. It doesn't need to be perfect, it just needs to work. The second point about support on problems is honestly that people get caught up in one thing not working and waste lots of time and energy when they can be putting their focus on something else. Stephen had a rant on this at one of his training sessions. I wrote a post about this earlier - if you can't do something, focus on what you can do. Stephen's talk went into detail about he'd get frustrated with students hung up on one little thing and let that stop them taking action. He said what about the other 100 things you could be doing.

Yes, support isn't always as quick as we'd like - it might take a day or three if it's a weekend but there's always other parts of the project that can be worked on in the meantime.

During the Mastermind group, I also found that there are great sites just within our own community.

I've been most impressed by Christine & Neil Robin's site http://easymarketinggroup.com
They also have lots of great free resources on their site for internet marketing and personal development. Check it out!

Day 5 - Market chosen & Passive Residual Income System Extreme set up in progress

"Don't let what you can't do interfere with what you can do"

This saying of Stephen Pierce's is deceptively simple. It's been going around and around in my head for the last two days since my last update on the Smart Marketing Coaching Club. It's now day 5

When I was stalled on working on my project I was frustrated because the hosting company hasn't uploaded my new domain. Until then I have been so excited. After going through Stephen and Alicia's mindset and creativity modules, I finally chose a market (one I'm passionate about naturally) and found a great affiliate product to promote. One that Stephen himself has researched and endorsed.

I chose a domain name ($9.05) and set up the hosting ($9.95 a month). I also learned how to transfer the domain name to the hosting company which impresses me. Yes, I am very much a newbie.

I've been going through the new cd, Passive Residual Income System Extreme - PRI$E, (thank you again Roy Phay for your detailed Camtasia videos) and learning lots. Now I have a blog, installed & configured WordPress, installed PlugIns, (whatthe?!) Smart PPC and now I'm installing Smart Profit Feeds. As you can tell, I still don't know exactly why I'm doing some of these steps but I'm just faithfully following each one and it's really coming together. I even felt confident enough to upload files to the server and I installed a different blog template than the standard version. Wow, I'm really feeling like I know some of this technical stuff now.

Only problem is I can't see it!! Agh! I keep getting the message that it will take 24-48 hours to have the domain up.

So this is where Stephen's quote "Don't let what you can't do stop you from doing what you can do." Although I can't see for certain that everything is working fine I can keep going on with the steps and learning. Even if I have made a mistake and something has gone wrong and I have to redo things, I've still learned so much that will make it faster doing it next time. And I always planned on creating multiple sites so this is valuable experience for me.

Intro to SMCC Smart Marketing Coaching Club

Woohoo! I'm finally in!!!

I am now able to access all the online info on Stephen Pierce's "Smart Marketing Coaching Club".

Wow, in a way I'm kinda glad I had this delayed introduction. I have to admit I was a bit annoyed that it took so long to get started but now I'm grateful it happened that way. Everything happens for a reason, right? This way I've been able to really get to explore everything in stages rather than being overwhelmed. There is SO MUCH info on the website. The highlights are:

• Coaching calls & events
• 12 Modules with the first module has the theme Mindset
• Resources - just the info in this is completely overwhelming, there are so many resources broken into categories but it's still HUGE!
• very active Forums

I've only just gotten a grasp on the info that's on the DVD/CD and there's so much more yet for me to do. I thought there might be a double up on the info that's on the DVD and info that's online but it looks like the DVD is just an intro before even getting started! OMI!!

To start, I've been busily posting on the forums, introducing myself and sending messages to people in my area. Looks like there's a group that meets regularly here in Brisbane (Australia) which is so awesome to be able to network with people who are doing the coaching program too.

Next step is to decide what niche I want to work in, what market can I win in (as Stephen puts it). I could easily procrastinate on this indefinitely so I'm making a decision that I will choose a market by the end of today. Even if it's not the absolute perfect niche for me, at least I'm taking action and I can learn and apply what I'm doing to a more perfect niche later if needed.
