You spend years of time and energy in raising your children. There are good times, and bad. But, every day you love your children and get it back in many ways. On Father’s Day, they go out of their way to make you feel special. In our busy lives, it is difficult to find the time to just enjoy each other. Today is the day to do just that.

It is also a time to reminisce about all the great times you’ve had. One of my best memories is when I met my daughter. I was stationed in Germany and my wife was too far along to fly there with me. So, I flew back to the states when she went into labor. My daughter was a day old when I got back. I remember when I first held her. I was shaking and nearly in tears. It was truly the happiest day of my life. I will never forget that feeling of joy.

This year, I got some wonderful gifts, and got to spend some quality time with my daughter. We both went to visit my dad for the weekend. Three generations of love and memories coming together for this special time.

This Father’s Day, reflect on the joys of fatherhood. It doesn’t matter if you are a father by biology, marriage, or adoption, we still feel the love.

Tell me about your favorite memories of your children, or your father. Don’t keep it to yourself, spread the joy.

Happy Fathers’ Day

What it provides you is a new “silver bullet” every week. These are campaigns designed around a high converting product. They have been extensively researched for you.

Your “silver bullet” includes the following:

• Video squeeze page that brings in subscribers
• High converting pre-selling mini site
• 5-part training series that you will send to your new subscribers and turn them into buyers
• 25 SEO rich articles that you can use on your blog and website

All of this saves you the time of researching, writing unique articles, creating squeeze pages, and writing an email follow up series.

My first question when I say this was, if everyone is getting the same “silver bullet,” then wouldn’t the market be saturated? When I researched it more, I found that there are a limited number of people that will be able to sign up. Also, each “silver bullet” will only go out to a small number of members. That takes care of the large competition problem.

Affiliate Silver Bullet launches tomorrow, April 28, 2010. I wouldn’t wait too long to get your free ebook and webinar spot. I’ll be there tomorrow for the webinar to get the best discount available.

Hits, Clicks and Misses: The Traffic Exchange Experience has been talked of very highly in the traffic exchange community. I decided to give it read.

I found the book to be very informative, to the point, and fun to read. Jon gives a good lesson on the history of traffic exchanges, and where they are headed. Much of the book gives you insight on the best ways to use the traffic exchanges. I learned a lot about branding, networking, when and how to promote, how to pick traffic exchanges, and more. There were a lot of little things that I hadn’t considered.

Jon’s writing style is excellent. He is straight to the point, honest, and funny. He writes with professionalism while speaking as an everyday guy. This makes it very easy to understand everything that he is trying to get across to you.

The two downsides to the book are appearance and format. When I first got my copy in the mail, I found that the cover wasn’t what I would expect from Jon. It is simply a title in a light blue box on the white cover. I imagined that there would be some eye catching graphics that would make the book “stand out.”

Although there was a lot of great content, it was merely a compilation of posts (or Issues) from his newsletter. I would have liked to seen that content put into a different format. Bringing all of that information into chapters would have made for a more authoritative book.

Overall, I enjoyed reading Hits, Clicks and Misses: The Traffic Exchange Experience. It is a great read for anybody who is serious about having a successful business online and doesn’t want to read a bunch of hype. As Jon would say, “that’s just my opinion.”

The prime time for promoting a new program is within the first week or so after launch. After that, the market starts becoming saturated with it. In the beginning, a handful of people are promoting the new program (usually JV partners). Once they each recruit a few a hundred people, those hundreds of people start promoting it. Now, your competition is so fierce, that finding more than a couple affiliates will become very difficult.

If you are on more than a couple lists, you will see some of them sending you very similar emails about the program all at once. After a couple days, you don’t hear much about it from them. That’s because their conversions will start to die down, and they will move on to the next thing.

So, this is what you do. You grab your membership the moment it is available (the first email you get). Then, start promoting it like crazy that day. Don’t let up for at least a week. You’ll catch more people that are getting in on the craze.

Your results will always depend on the program and how many JV’s are promoting it. But, I bet you will get much better results in that first week than in the next couple months.

So, you tell me what you need to know. I won’t tell you that I am an expert at HTML or PHP. But, I will tell you that I understand enough of it to do what I need to do. With that said, send some questions my way. Even if I don’t know all the answers, I will find out, or show you where to go.

My goal with this blog is to give people the tools to make money online without spending their life savings. You shouldn’t have to give your money to people who just want you to buy their newest and coolest product. If you have the right tools, you will need very little money to get your business off the ground.

It is free to get the TE Listbuilding ebook, but I got to the second OTO when I decided to grab my rebranded copy of TE Listbuilding. When you upgrade, you also receive some great software with resale or giveaway rights. Certainly worth the small price. The members area is just a typical members area that I see with many memberships I hold. Nothing fancy, but has what you need.

I am now working on a squeeze page with my rebranded copy of TE Listbuilding. Since we are still in the early days of this, it will still be new to many people.

If you are still unsure how to build a list, this a great guide to get yourself started. It is easy to read and follow. See for yourself, visit TE Listbuilding here.

A number of resources are available to do this. My favorite products to use are:

Hits Connect
Page Swirl
TEToolbox
Vital Viral Pro

All have both free and premium memberships. The free memberships work well if you have only a couple campaigns. Anything more than that I would highly recommend the premium membership. Not only can you track many more campaigns, they all offer even more tools.

You actually may be surprised at the results. What you think is the most attractive page may be repulsive to 90% of your viewers (of course sometimes it may work in your favor). You’ll never know unless you track your pages. Raising your conversions by just 1% is worth the time.
