Subject: Iain, did you miss out?

Hi Iain,

Were you one of the people who missed out today?

If so, there is still chance to get it for just $77.
On Tuesday, August 26th, the price increases to $97.

As you’ve seen today, we’re not using “fake” scarcity tactics
but the price actually did increase today.

Don’t miss out again.

P.S. This is a “do it now” opportunity. So you need to see
what’s up now, while you’re thinking about it.
Nothing else you’re doing is more important (unless you’re waiting
for the EMTs or fire department, I guess).

If you are at all interested in what this software has to offer, now is definitely the best time to buy.

Subject: What’s the Secret Weapon to Making Serious Cash Online?

Are you already making between $1 and $10,000 per month from your internet marketing efforts?

Internet marketer and web programmer Robert Plank has just released a low cost e-book and video course called Black Hat PHP. It allows you to turn underperforming sales letters into cash machines that shine and increase your monthly income.

You don’t need to know how to program, all you need to know is how to cut-n-paste and follow simple instructions.

On the other hand, if you are a “get your hands dirty” kind of site builder, he will give you some detailed instructions on how you can totally bend these profit-boosting scripts to your will.

Here is the quick and neat recipe for product creation.

* Step 1: Create (or find) a simple product to promote.
* Step 2: Create a list to funnel leads into, both BEFORE and AFTER a sale.
* Step 3: Write a sales letter to explain your product and take orders.
* Step 4: Drive traffic to your sales page from sources by building authority sites, marketing to forums, buying pay-per-click traffic, or posting to blogs.
* Step 5: Test small changes on your sales letters to turn a trickle of sales into a waterfall of income! (This is my favorite part!)

With these five easy steps in mind, Robert Plank has created Black Hat PHP.

Here is a list of the seven action-packed videos you get that will take your web site to the next level:

Tactic #1: Revisit Reminder: Add A Reminder to Visitors’ Calendars With One Click to Get Them to Come Back to Your Site on A Recurring Basis
Tactic #2: Aweber Auto Submitter: Integrate Any Third-Party Payment System with Any Third-Party Mailing List!
Tactic #3: Link Manipulator: Are You Leaking Traffic? Plug Those Leaks and Avoid Newbie Site-Building Mistakes
Tactic #4: Whitelist Wizard: Re-Capture the 40 Percent of Your List That Never Receive Your E-Mails… Because They Failed to Confirm Their Address!
Tactic #5: Affiliate Link Generator: Use Multiple Sales Letters to Leverage More Profits From Affiliate Traffic!
Tactic #6: Time of Day Personalizer: Subconsciously Connect With Your Readers In A Subtle Way That Keeps Their Attention Long Enough to Hear Your Sales Message…
Tactic #7: Licensed Reseller Script: Reward Top Affiliates With Passive “Loyalty” Income By Ensuring That No Traffic Goes Unclaimed!

Most Of These Scripts Require Zero Customization!
Some Can Be Running On Your Site In Less Than A Minute.
Just Think… If You Act Quickly, You Could Have A Better Performing Web Site And See An Increased Number Of Sales By Lunchtime!

* The 5 to 15 minute Camtasia video itself, showing the script in action and how to plug it in with no problems.
* The full PHP source code so you can simply upload the files to your site — you don’t have to copy code out of the book.
* A five to ten page PDF installation guide showing exactly how I created the script and how it can be customized to do whatever you want.
* A killer black hat idea that could be the basis for your next product membership site.

There are several different platforms for building blogs, but the two most popular by number of users at the time of writing this post are WordPress and Blogger. Both of these systems may be used in one of two ways: either service-provider hosted or self-hosted. This blog is self-hosted on the domain iainherrington.com and is powered by WordPress. If I had chosen to use the service-provider hosted service the URL would have been something like iainherrington.wordpress.com (assuming that it was not already in use). Similarly, if I had decided to use Blogger as the blog platform, the service-provider hosted URL would have been iainherrington.blogspot.com, obviously the self-hosted domain would have been the same, but the appearance and functionality of the website would have been different to what you see now.

The reason these platforms are so popular is because they are so easy to use, certainly compared to the methods for website building that preceded them. They allow the user to focus on what is really of interest to them – the content and/or message, rather than the technical details that many people find so trying.

However, once you have created your blog and started filling it with all that scintillating content you were just bursting to impart, you immediately hit a second question/problem – how do I make money from this? I have lost count of the number of times I have seen this question raised in Internet forums, or asked on teleconferences/webinars, it is an issue people really struggle with.

Well John Chow has put together a very comprehensive list of the various ways you can monetize your blog and it represents an excellent starting point for answering that question. His blog also demonstrates what is possible if you choose to apply yourself to becoming a professional blogger.

Update 16 Feb 2010

I see that this post has been listed on the affiliate promotion page of Philip Mansour’s & Saj P’s Banner Ad Blueprint product and thought that it would be a good idea to issue some specific commenting guidelines.

Anyone who wants to leave an intelligent comment relating to this post is more than welcome to do so. Only links to domains other than BannerAdBlueprint.com will be allowed – NO direct linking. Spam comments or linking to spammy destinations will not be tolerated.

These guidelines may be added to if any other naughtiness ensues.

The Royal British Legion’s fund raising efforts have moved onto the Internet in earnest this year. There is a virtual Cenotaph in Second Life, a Facebook application and methods to donate online. You can read more about it at The Poppy Appeal.

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

It all starts when some well-meaning (yet misdirected) person encourages a budding internet entrepreneur to “start in a niche they know a lot about”, or base their business around “something they’re passionate about”…

As horrible as it may sound – they’ve unknowingly sent the hopeful entrepreneur down a path of false expectations, poor results and eventually – failure. In fact, the myth of “do what you love and the money will follow” has been responsible for more failure than likely any other influence – perhaps even more so than laziness or a lack of perseverance.

Because the simple truth of the matter is that the only way you’re going to make real money on the net is if your business is based around two crucial things:

1. Large Demand
2. Buyers

In other words – you aren’t going to get rich selling a $15 ebook about growing square watermelons – even though that might be a great passion of yours.

The demand just isn’t there. Maybe there’s a few searches a day on Google for the topic, and perhaps there’s some interest in the online “gardening enthusiast” communities – but you’d be hard-pressed to make even a few hundred dollars a month from ebook sales.

Similarly, you also aren’t going to have a particularly easy time getting rich by building websites about some seemingly “popular” topics like humor, jokes, funny pictures and so on. And while there are a few ways to “monetize” your site (with AdSense, CPA Offers, CPM Banners, etc.), it takes literally millions of website visitors to make even just a few thousand dollars in markets like that.

The demand is huge – but the visitor value is extremely low…

Instead, if you want to make it big online – pulling down an impressive six-figure income – you need to tap into markets with tons of demand, where the majority of the visitors are valuable.
You need to capture tons of traffic that wants to buy something. If you take this approach, you’d practically have to hijack your own order links (or affiliate links) not to make a sizeable income.

In fact – did you know that some affiliates make several thousand dollars daily just by promoting a single product in hot markets? (Just imagine what the merchant is making…)

In some markets there’s actually so much demand that the vendors are quite literally selling over a thousand units – or more – per day. Digital products, with practically zero overhead/delivery cost.

But it all comes back to tapping into valuable demand. In most cases, it takes no extra effort or “skill” to market to a valuable market than it does to struggle along with something you’re passionate about.

These two factors – demand and buying traffic – are what separate the “wannabe” marketers from the millionaires. Because there’s no real secret – you just need to sell what thousands of people are already buying.

The ball is now officially in your court. Are you tapping into markets with massive, valuable demand?

Or are you struggling to simply make a few dollars occasionally with a business that’s based on your own passionate interests?

Apparently he managed to do this without writing a long sales letter, organizing JV partners, or recruiting an army of affiliates.
