Online Video Made Easy, a program I presented with The Online Video Guy, Lou Bortone, is now available as a self study course. We were getting a lot of requests from people who couldn't make it to the live event. Lou's video below tells the story and it's good stuff if I do say so myself! But don't take my word for it. Check out the testimonials from happy new videographers, in a video montage Lou created on the sales page.
Our mentor, Tom Antion, has put a call out for video testimonials. Here's a brief review of The Blog Squad's success working with Tom Antion and his Great Internet Marketing Mentor Program.
"Every so often a product is launched that I wish I had created. Brian Clark has done that with a methodical program that elegantly guides you step by step through the process of creating and selling multimedia teaching programs. Teaching Sells is my top recommendation for professionals doing business on the Web."
Every so often a product is launched that I wish I had created. This week that happened to me. Brian Clark of Copyblogger fame, launched his Teaching Sells program. After reviewing the free report
and the first module of his educational program, I wish I had developed
this comprehensive program on how to leverage your expertise into
powerful multimedia teaching systems that can create additional
streams of income for you.
Patsi and I have been engaged in content development for years. We preach content development and product creation to all our clients. We assist our clients with creating info products and then marketing them on the web. We advise professionals to start blogging in order to create content that can be turned into books and info products.
But if you haven't been convinced by us, Brian Clark has come up with a methodical program that takes this concept and elegantly guides you step by step through the process of creating multimedia teaching programs. As Brian says:
Our accelerated world demands that everyone become a lifelong learner, and that's why those who can effectively teach online will never worry about income. These teachers will live where they want, make as much money as they desire, and enjoy their lives as they see fit.
Check out the Teaching Sells free report and decide for yourself.
When Tom Antion talks, The Blog Squad listens. And now we have over 800 pages of Internet Marketing expertise to read.
Tom has been working on the third revision to his gigantic Internet Marketing tome, Click, and for months and we've been bugging him about when we can get a copy. Finally, got it this weekend!
Tom invited us to contribute a chapter on blogging -- 57 pages with info about the basics of blogging, what makes a great blog, what you need to know about blogging, and a guide to get you started. Plus we included the transcript from a teleseminar we did with Tom about using a blog to write and market your book.
Here's the announcement from Tom Antion with information about what you can expect in Version 3 of Click.

If you are currently hosting teleseminars or if you are thinking about getting started with it, I have a recommendation for you.
I have been using InstantTeleseminar for the last couple of months and I wanted to wait to make any recommendation until after I had some experience with it. Now I have and I can honestly say, I love it.
In one system, for one monthly fee, InstantTeleseminar provides bridge lines, instant online webcasting, automatic call recording, mp3 file download, online interaction so listeners can ask questions before and during the event, and templates for your web pages.
I'm always looking for tools to make my business easier, even if it costs a bit of money. In the end, the investment can be worth all the time saved.
In the last two weeks, we have put the system to a true test, hosting two teleseminars with 350 and 400+ participants. The system worked like a charm.
You can see the service and what it does at InstantTeleseminar.com.
Plus you can get a 21-day trial for only $1. That's a great deal if you're ready to host a teleseminar.

For the MySpace newbie, Nancy Marmolejo's ebook "Make MySpace Your Space" is perfect. It's a step-by-step guide about how to set up your profile and start networking on the second biggest site on the Internet. Mind you, this ebook is for professionals and business owners who want to leverage the power of MySpace. This isn't about rock bands and teenagers.
Nancy shows you how to use all the MySpace tools to effectively start making friends and attracting them to your products and services. In addition to the helpful screenshots, Nancy follows up with several email tutorials to help you really maximize your MySpace presence. Highly recommended.
TeleSeminar Jumpstart - Ellen Britt of Marketing Qi, has created an incredibly thorough 5-part program on how to do teleclasses. Ellen covers facilitation skills, technology, marketing, how to deal with participants, how to run a teleclass, how to prepare, and much more. There are 5 hours of audio, detailed notes and mind maps (the mind maps alone are worth the price of the product!).
When you’ve been around the Internet as long as we have, you get a little jaded – well, okay, we’re down right skeptical about "get rich quick" claims, you know those emails that promise big easy bucks with just a few mouse clicks?
We’ve seen just about every scam that has floated around the Internet from one con artist to the other. So when a trusted colleague sent us this email about a great report for only $7 that made over $3,000 in just 7 days, we just laughed and said, “yeah, right!”
I went to the guy’s sales page, and my immediate reaction was this:
Craigslist has become one of the hottest and most important tools for getting free exposure for your products, service, business, newsletter, etc. But, you have to follow the rules or you get shut out forever! One of my favorite PR experts, Joan Stewart did a teleseminar with Nancy Mills, an expert at leveraging Craigslist. The transcript is required reading if you plan on using Craigslist.

This past week I was invited to review a new product called the Directory of Resources for Internet Radio Interview Opportunities. Of course this was very interesting to me since not only am I a radio host now, but as part of The Blog Squad's marketing strategy, we want to get more exposure through radio interviews.
Here's my review...
Internet Radio is hot. If you want to get known as a expert in your industry and sell more books and products, then you need exposure. And Internet radio is an excellent way to reach millions of prospects. But how do you find the shows you should be on?
