If you’ve noticed, most info-products in the past year hit the scene with a bang, and then slipped back into obscurity as the product itself died a slow and painful death.

But this product, from Gobala Krishnan, has been selling consistently since August 2006! It’s called the “Wordpress Adsense System” and it has been selling so well that Gobala recently increased the price!

I guess it shows that a quality product is always in demand..

Wordpress Adsense System is about creating Adsense sites with a blogging software called Wordpress (sounds familiar?) - but Gobala goes way beyond just providing an ebook.

In his guide you’ll also get:

  1) 30 Adsense-ready niche Wordpress themes
  2) 12 Step-by-Step “Screen Cam” Tutorials
  3) 180 Google Adsense niche keywords database
  4) A basic (but good) keyword research software
  5) Unlimited One-Way links from his high-ranking site

I made a deal with Gobala to offer $30 off the listed price for a limited time only:
Wordpress Adsense System Special Discount Page

You will not get this special discount anywhere else, and the only reason Gobala is prepared to offer such a discount is because he’s getting engaged in a few days time and pretty soon he’ll be buying a new home..

A little extra cash would help him sleep better at night

Here’s your special link, get $30 off from it for a limited time:

Make full use of it the limited time discount.

I’ve been a fan of centralizing your support system using a helpdesk type of platform instead of relying on plain old email.

Regardless of the number of support issues that you’re facing, I would recommend setting up your own system as soon as possible.

WHY?

- if you’re still using email, chances are you or your customers will have some of the emails being filtered in the bulk folder, and they will never see the light of it. You’ll have angry customers because they won’t be receiving your reply even though it was no fault of yours.

- by using a helpdesk system, you’re streamlining your operations for future expansion. You’re able to start outsourcing your support issues as soon as it becomes viable, without any extra work involved. Just create a user ID or them and voila, they can start taking over those tasks from you.

- through a helpdesk platform, you can start building a knowledge base of typical replies to common support questions. This way, you speed up the response time by just using those templated replies which you’ve created. Also, your outsourced employees will be able to use those templated response as well with minimal training.

- by using a centralized system, you’re projecting a more professional image of yourself and your business.

These are enough reasons to start your own helpdesk center.

Easier said than done because I was one of those that procrastinated initially due to the impression that it’s complicated and difficult to setup.

When I finally took the leap of faith and installed one, I was almost right. I started using LogicNow’s helpdesk system and it was a nightmare for me to configure it because I’m pretty slow when it comes to technical stuff. Furthermore, it is a pretty robust platform with lots of other functions which I don’t require and will probably never use.

When I finally got everything to work, it went on smoothly for a while. Then suddenly I realized that there seems to be a lack of support ticket for the last 3 months, which is a good thing. But something was niggling behind my head and I decided to login to check the system. Low and behold there were quite a number of tickets which went unanswered.

I was shocked! I contacted LogicNow’s support and was told that it was a bug, and that it was patched in the latest release. However, I would have to pay for it since it was more than 6 months since I bought from them.

Oh boy, was I pissed. While I don’t expect the latest version’s bells and whistles, I do EXPECT that my current version to work as it was intended to be, without any problem. Furthermore, it was less than a year since I bought it. To have to pay more than 50% of the purchase price again for a patch …in my humble opinion that’s BAD customer service!

I them remembered Willie Crawford recommending a simple platform for Internet Marketers, and I decided to check it out.

Without hesitation, I bought it.

I saw the demo, and it was simple enough and fulfills my requirement. It provides free lifetime upgrades. What more can I say…

Yes, I’ve switched over to the Three Pillars system now and I would recommend them as well. You can check them out yourself: Three Pillars Support System

There are dozens of systems out there and if you’re looking for something more complex and robust, then this is not for you. But if you want a simple, easy to use system, Three Pillars gets my thumbs up!

That sounds like hypocrisy when we’re all here to learn how to make money online.

That’s what I thought anyway when I first heard Mike Filsaime spewed out that ‘golden wisdom’ during our interview with him when we were attending his WIME seminar in September 2007.

I was dumbfounded. In fact I was like, "What the %$#^&"

I’ve travelled half way around the globe to learn from Mike Filsaime and this is what he was telling me?

That was until he explained what he actually meant. And then it all became so clear.

If you’ve really noticed the Internet Marketing scenario, of late, there have been TOO MANY product launches. So much so that I would say at least 50% of those stuff are either over-priced, or over-rated. That’s just my personal opinion.

I begin to wonder, why do these people start churning out such stuff when they know full well that the product is not up to mark?

It’s all about the money. As Jerry McGuire said, "Show me the money!" They are of the belief that by coming out with any products, as long as the marketing is done right, the money will come.

Let me tell you this…

YOU MISSED THE POINT!

The purpose of created a product and selling it is to DELIVER VALUE first and foremost. The money will come eventually. Sadly, people are often blinded by too much greed.

The next time you want to create something, ask yourself this question…

ARE YOU ADDICTED TO MAKING MONEY?

It’s time to listen to what Mike Filsaime really told us. Check out Confessions Of An Internet Millionaire!

 

 

 

 

 

I’m beginning to feel sick and tired of all the BIG product launches. Month in month out there’s bound to be some huge launches in the Internet Marketing niche.

It seems the trend nowadays is to create a product, get tons of JV partners to help you launch it, make $xxx,xxx.xx amount of dollars, and then brag about it so that you can be considered a guru.

It seems everyone’s jumping onto the bandwagon, and some have taken things the wrong way.

Now, there’s nothing wrong with product launches per se. In fact, I think it’s a good strategy to generate buzz and build momentum. The problem comes when these are one-off wonders in the sense that once the launch is over, the sales of the product sizzles and dies off.

That’s pretty sad considering the amount of effort put into creating the product.

How do we ‘cure’ this painful death?

We start off by planning the perpetual marketing of the product first, then only should be concentrate on the launch. It takes less effort to continue marketing a product and making continuous sales, than to create a new product and do the launch process all over again.

If you want to study how some of these ‘evergreen’ strategies work, you should check out the following sites and see how they execute their marketing strategies:

Edmund Loh - ResellRightsMastery.com

Gobala Krishnan - Wordpress Adsense System

Ewen Chia - Secret Affiliate Weapon

Aurelius Tjin - CopyAndPasteGraphics.com

Even after the initial launch of their products, sales continue to come everyday because of the marketing strategies put in place by them.

That’s what I call smart marketing.
