Unless you’ve been living on Mars for the last few weeks, this won’t be news to you, but I’ll say it anyway: Stompernet is taking on new members.

As usual they have some well produced videos, but my experience with them is that they don’t really deliver on all their promises and are far too corporate. If you do want to join then go join through Ed Dale’s link as you get Immediate Edge membership and some other cool stuff thrown in too.

And if you are an absolute beginner to internet marketing then neither of these is for you - join the Thirty Day Challenge, which is FREE.

I could explain. But then I was up until 3:30 a.m. finding out about it myself, so will let Ed Dale explain as best he can. Click the play button below to find out more.

Sound like something you’d like to do?

Click here to sign up for the Thirty Day Challenge 2008.

OK, it’s that time of year again, the pre-pre-season for the Thirty Day Challenge. Last year’s challenge was an unqualified success with 100,000 or so signing up for the daily lessons in August.

This year will be different - naturally, as there will be new techniques and new stuff to try - but to help you make the most of it you should sign up now.

What is it????

Oh, I haven’t said. If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to sell online, then this is your chance. It is FREE, you won’t be pitched, it is 100 percent educational.

Since you don’t have to risk anything, what are you waiting for? Sign up for the Thirty Day Challenge now.

PS if you follow the links above, make sure you click on the video to find out more.

Finally - I’ve done a proper writeup of Immediate Edge, so if you’re considering it but unsure whether to go with it or not take a read.

One of the problems with “marketing”, and the reason for so many definitions is that different people mean different things by it. The Chartered Institute of Marketing defines marketing as “the management process responsible for identifying, anticipating and satisfying customer requirements profitably”, which being an offline marketer in my previous life I agree with.

Typically marketers break down “marketing” into the elements of the marketing (or tactical) mix, often known as the 4Ps: (more…)

I’m most of the way through Stompernet’s latest video, the first of their Going Natural 3.0 series and blown away. Presenting the story of how Brad Fallon’s multi-million dollar business was blown away when it was dropped from Google’s organic listings and how Dan Thies headed up new research into AdWords to save that business from certain catastrophe, this is a really fresh look at how the AdWords game has changed and what to do in 2008.

One of the tools mentioned - in fact the only tool so far - is Microsoft’s Commercial Intent tool, which has yielded some surprising tools for one of my niches.

In fact, I’m going to see what happens if I use it to screen keywords in the Thirty Day Challenge/Immediate Edge niche research stage, as it may help identify really strong keywords that are off the radar at the moment. (more…)
