Mountain Lion Encounter

Posted on June 22, 2010 Filed Under Newsletter, Reviews | Leave a Comment

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Last week while walking in the forest
near our home, one of my sled dogs
treed a mountain lion.

Because the bank was pretty steep
where the mountain lion was, I was
able to get fairly close to take a few
pictures.

Here kitty kitty kitty…………….

The mountain lion is a very elusive creature
and this is the first one I have seen in the wild.

We were pretty proud of the dog….till about
15 minutes later he found a skunk….

and got sprayed…..

One thing I have found that is not elusive
and that is local business people who want
help.  For over a year now, I have been
working directly with local businesses and
helping them plug their business into the web.

I helped one business who was doing around
$10,000/mo in online sales - which isn’t bad…
but after I setup a SEO based shopping cart,
their sales ballooned to over
$100,000/mo…

And has consistently producing those
revenues month after month.

That is the kind of IMPACT you can
have on local businesses.

What happens is the more you work and
help local businesses - the more referrals
you get and they start sending you even
more work.

Right now the search engines are emphasizing
“Local Search” and local businesses that see
this are able to effective jump ahead of ALL
of the competition.

The biggest opportunity out there right now
is helping and working with local businesses.

My Local Web Income program is a
Step by Step Process of what I have been
doing in my small (50k) local market.

http://www.localwebincome.com 

Here is what one member sent me last week…

I purchased Kevin Wilke’s Local Business
Money Machine program ($2k)
and Mike Koenig’s Main Street Marketing Machines program ($3k) along
with a couple other less expensive programs only to feel overwhelmed by
the feeling of not knowing where to start - your free report and then your
Gold Package have plenty of great information on what to do
step by step - I should have saved my money from the other program
purchases and just worked your plan — it’s simple and profitable, and
that’s really all I was looking for - thanks for a great product Ray!
Joshua Immel,

Here is what another member, Alvin had to say….
“…I’ve been doing local internet marketing for about 3 Yrs, and
I haven’t seen nothing out there that comes close to your
Local Web Income Product…..I have to agree with you,
Local Internet Marketing is where it’s at.”

So if you want a real business that helps those
in your local community….this is a golden
opportunity.  With this economy, local businesses
need your help to expand their markets and
bring in more customers.

http://www.localwebincome.com

I am currently repackaging this and adding
hours of instructional tutorials to the program.
Tutorials that go over exactly what you need to
know to help local businesses.

Truly hands on info that you can directly use.

As my subscribers - some who have been with me
for over five years - I want you to benefit by
the exact same processes I am using in my local
area.

Now, when I release the new upgraded version
very shortly - the price will be higher….

But if you get in now - you will still get the
new upgraded version automatically.

Lock your membership in now for a
one time payment - that is so low compared
to these “guru” programs - that you will
be shocked!

http://www.localwebincome.com

Get it Now! - Beat the price increase!
This is a booming business to be in right
now - take advantage of it!

Finding business owners who want to pay
you thousands - is a whole lot easier then finding
mountain lions in the forest… that is for sure!

I walk the talk
This is what I do

Come Join me in this…
You Won’t be disappointed…..

Your Own Business Blueprint

Posted on December 9, 2009 Filed Under The 7 Figure Code, Marketing, Newsletter, Reviews | Leave a Comment

Obtaining business success for many
is made a lot harder then it needs to be.
It seems the vast majority of entrepreneurs
forget a very basic premise……

You do not have to reinvent the wheel.

In other words there are many successful
business models to follow.  Instead of
trying to figure everything out on your own….
Just find a successful business and copy/replicate
what they are doing.

Have you ever said to yourself….
“If I would have only known what I know now,
I would not have made that bonehead
decision.”

http://www.reviewsbyray.com/7free

If you think you haven’t ever said that to yourself
then you are only fooling yourself….We all
make plenty of mistakes - those that learn
from their mistakes…grow

Those that do not learn from their mistakes…
keep repeating the same mistakes.

A few years back I had the opportunity
to partner with Mike Filsaime on a few
projects.  About the same time, Mike
and Tom Beal released their 7 Figure Code.

The had a $5000 per person 3 day event
in New York where they provided the
exact blueprint of how they built a
Multi-million dollar business.

I attended that event and took that
information and applied it to my own
business - eliminating tens of thousands
of dollars of mistakes.

Quite literally I was provided the blueprint
to building my own successful business.

You can now have this same information
that several hundred paid $5k plus for

And several thousands others paid
$1297 for the home study version.

You can now get this same information
This same blueprint that has launched
hundreds of successful businesses
for fr-ee!

Yes that’s right, You can get this same
course….if they are not all gone….
for just a few bucks to cover shipping.

http://www.reviewsbyray.com/7free

If you are in business online - then this is
a must read.  Regardless of your niche…
the information in theis course will save
you thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars.

If you want to really grow your online business
Grab this course while you can.

What’s in Your Head?

Posted on July 30, 2009 Filed Under Reviews | Leave a Comment

 

I just returned yesterday from a 3-day Launch Tree conference in Las Vegas.

City of Las VegasImage via Wikipedia

It was a great opportunity to connect with old friends and associates and meet several new ones.  With speakers ranging from Joe Sugarman of BluBlocker direct sales fame, to the “dude” Frank Kern of Mass Control, to Perry Belcher who in the last 10 months started from scratch - zero subscribers or followers, and using social media sites such as twitter, facebook, youtube, and wordpress he now has been averaging over 100k month - it was days of valuable information and note taking.

As I reviewed my notes last night, I began to see a pattern with nearly all of the speakers. Those that are successful all exhibit the following four attributes:

1-Successful people think big and then follow up with action
2-Successful people read and reiterate what their goals and aspirations are - Every single day
3-Successful people provide value and communicate with their audience
4-Successful people spend their time on the activity that provides them with the highest return

 

Let’s look at each of these attributes and how you can apply it to your life and your business.  I can guarantee you one thing - if you change your thinking and your actions to coincide with these attributes - you will see big changes in your life an business.  If on the other hand you say “Yeah right Ray”, and you continue living your life and business as you have been doing - you will not grow and your business will not expand. And I can guarantee one year from now you will be in exactly the same boat you are in today!

 

1-Successful People think big and then follow up with action
Lots of people dream big and have great ideas - however only about 5% of those people ever follow through with action.  Let’s say for example you have a website or an affiliate product that you believe is great.  If you were to say to yourself that you were going to be the number one affiliate, or that you were going to sell 100 units of product this week - then if there is going to be even a remote possibility of that to come true - you need to follow up with action.  Specific things that you will do every day that will produce measurable results.  If you have 10 visitors a day - then promote your website till you have 100 visitors a day - or 1000 visitors a day - and everyday focus your energies on what ever activity that will push you to achieving your “Big Idea”.

 

2-They read and reiterate what their goals and aspirations are - Every single day!
To use a old axiom, “Whatever your mind can conceive and believe - you can achieve.”  Throughout my entire life, the times where I had my greatest successes, were times where I had written out on a piece of paper, clear and measurable goals, and where every morning I started out by reading those goals out loud.  

 

What happens is you train your subconscious mind to concentrate on the activities and tasks that direct you toward achieving your goals.  If you can get your subconscious mind - that guy/gal in your brain that is ALWAYS chattering at nearly 1500 words a minute to keep repeating your goals and what you want to achieve.  (unfortunately for most it regurgitates the negative things of life such as bad news, violence, the economy, or worry)  

 

The sooner you start to focus your subconscious minds on what you want to accomplish - the sooner you will do the things necessary to achieve those goals.  The key is to write the measurable goals out and to read out loud.

 

Marshall Sylver - the millionaire maker, suggested this affirmation statement  “I am a multi-millionaire whose money as yet to be deposited in my bank account”

 

3-Successful People provide Value and communicate with their audience
As soon as you start providing real value to others - and effectively communicating with them - everything will change for you and your business.  To develop a following - provide value and communicate with your audience.  Regardless of the niche you are in - the more people you provide value to - the more successful you will be.  With the social sites available to all of - use those to your advantage - use these social sites as tools for you to reach a wider audience.  Gain trust and credibility by providing information that your audience can use to better their lives.  When you do that, they will begin to trust you - when people trust you - they will buy from you.

 

4-Successful people spend their time on the activity that provides them with the highest return
Brad Fallon, a very successful online businessman who now coaches Fortune 500 Companies had us conduct a simple test that shows you exactly what you need to be focusing your energies and activities on.   First off we need be aware that the #1 thing that is preventing your big success is that in all likelihood,  you are working on too many projects - I will be the first to admit that this is one of my weaknesses also.

Just list your current projects out in a column:  Then right next to that column put what that project will profit you for the entire year were it to be completed.  Next, in the next column enter the number of hours it would take you to complete that project - and finally divide your profit by the number of hours it will take.

 

 This will result in a figure that expresses what you would be paid in dollars per hour.  When you look at that column - you will see exactly what you should be concentrating your efforts on.  Pause all of your other projects - and then go complete that project first - only work on that one project that leverages your time the greatest.  Then when and only when that is complete - work on another project.

 

Project Annual Profit Total Hours Profit/Hours
Project A $20k 200 hrs $100/hr
Project B $8k 100 hrs $80/hr
Project C $12k 600 hrs $20/hr
Project D $3k 100 hrs $30/hr

 

So as an example of some of the projects I am involved in - from just building this simple chart - it becomes obvious that I should concentrate my activities on Project A  till it is complete.

 

It just does not make sense for me to be messing with project C at this time - I will leverage my time five fold by concentrating on Project A instead…..And Project A gets to market quicker where it starts generating income.  But if  I try to do all 4 projects - it would most likely delay Project A by months since I would be “sharing” my time with all 4 project.

 

Take 10 minutes and do this simple test to the projects you are involved in.  I bet you will find  this to be an enlightening way of looking at your own projects.

From Darkness to Success

Posted on June 23, 2009 Filed Under Newsletter, Reviews | Leave a Comment

I remember being at a conference in Baltimore - several of us decided to go out to eat some seafood.  We traveled in several cars - had a great dinner and talked at great length.

Baltimore Inner Harbor from Federal HillImage by ktylerconk via Flickr

I was visiting with a new guy on the scene whose name is Alex Jeffreys - Well the cars all headed without us so we called a cab, no biggie…we thought….. We waited …..and waited…. then the kitchen staff closed the place down - we convinced one of them to at least give us a ride to a 24 hr gas station about a mile away.  I remember looking around and how dark it was.

Well that gas station happened to be just outside the county line - we called for a cab again…..and again…. and finally after about 2 hours after the restaurant had closed and spending an hour at the gas station -  a cab finally showed that whisked us back to the hotel.

But within that two-very-dark-outside-in-a-strange-big-city-hours,

Alex and I developed a very close bond.  From that day forward we have been in constant contact, and I have seen Alex go from a nearly broke bloak - to one of the most respected names in the industry.  His success is the result of his passion for helping others become successful.

Here is a perfect example -  and email from one of his “students”:
