		<description>I&#039;ve been reading some of the big money-making blogs for a while(John Chow, etc), but some of the articles on this blog beat all their posts hands-down.

The copy on your main page is genius. Usually whenever I see a salesletter website I glance over it curiously, thinking: &quot;Is anyone stupid enough to buy this?&quot; 

On the main page you sell your ebook much better than all the other large red title/fake testimonials copycats. It was the first ebook I truly wanted to buy. The way the page was different and down-to-earth stood out.

But then that&#039;s what you were going for, right? I&#039;d like to see some of your other websites, you obviously know what you are doing.

Thanks(subscribing),

		<description>Hi Mirko,

PLR is actually an excellent way to get started with your own product.

Just keep in mind that if you edit/add to it to effectively become &quot;great&quot; and focus MOST of your efforts on making a splash with your sales page - you can make a killing.

So long as your product does in fact live up to your claims - then the more &quot;revolutionary&quot; you can portray it - the better.

PLR basically just equates to saving time, both in terms of a &quot;shell&quot; product that you can use as a foundation for building a complete product, as well as the RESEARCH factor - it&#039;s all been done for you already.

The vast majority of people who purchase PLR don&#039;t do anything with it.

		<description>Mr. Rempel just caused about 200 saved files on my hard drive to get nuked. Thanks a lot pal. No, I mean really, thanks a lot. 

I&#039;m one of the horde of internet marketing info horders and I&#039;m sick of it. I&#039;m not doing it anymore. And I&#039;m going to prove it to myself right now.

I&#039;m writing from a Wifi laptop. I just erased deleted and sh&amp;^canned every IM book on my hard drive. I&#039;ve unsubscribed to ever newletter except this one. I&#039;m a lawyer by day, so I even threatned some newsletter people who made it a little hard to find the Unsubscribe button.

Moreover, I am burning, seriously, gasoline to paper out in my back yard, all the other ebooks I bought except for Mr. Rempel&#039;s Lazy Affiliate Blueprint. (By the way: That&#039;s a Crap Name for the best IM product ever written. Call it: &quot;True Honest Internet Marketing Info&quot;.  

Right.

Anyway, despite that ass title, Mr. Rempel&#039;s book is the ONLY one which has any validity or accuracy and which actually affords the user something that is do-able based on comprehensive and comprehendable data. The rest of it junk. Everything. One guru just came out with a plan which will have everyone  bitorrenting their victim &quot;customers&quot; with viruses while they endure ads just to play free games. 

NMOC (Let&#039;s title that&#039;s Niche Marketing On Ass) is on fire at this time. My computer is emptied. 

I&#039;m going to create ebooks. 

Argue with me all you want, but I say affiliate links are not securable, period. I&#039;m the best article writer ever. I had sales on every article within hours of posting and NO WEBSITE. Within days my sales were dead. 

Cloak and croak. It doesn&#039;t matter. From what I can tell, the affiliate business is dead or dying. That business is going to cook just like Adwords with no landing pages sent a bunch of accountants back to real jobs. Affiliate sales are going to get black hacked by thieves who always will be one step ahead of you. Always and they will hijack your hoplinks, no matter what you do. I&#039;ve had it. 

I&#039;m selling my own products, period. I&#039;m going to use Mr. Rempel&#039;s method for affiliate marketing, apply it to product creation, as he suggests. My ebooks are gonna be 20 pagers sold to people who don&#039;t care if the product is six sentences, as long as it helps cure a problem. 

The rest of the IM world can keep jumping around like slaves to Goog and getting their hop links sent to Romania. I&#039;m selling my own stuff and I&#039;m going to use the Rempel methods to do it. Wow, look at those printed out ebook roast. The neighbors Arbor Vitaes are at risk. Shit, I gotta get this under control...later everyone. Make your own products, otherwise you have no future.</description>

Great Post.

I&#039;m curious as to why more and more authors (or so called authors) choose to just spin their eBooks rather than at least take the time to &quot;put a new twist&quot; on them.

This has nothing to do with rehashed re-seller eBooks, I&#039;m talking about real eBook authors who take a little time to write.

Or is it just me.  Maybe I need a break, but I&#039;ve read about 75 eBooks in the last 2 months and it&#039;s the same &quot;spew&quot;.

I guess that&#039;s why I had no problem investing in &quot;lazy affiliate&quot;.  I&#039;m lazy...

No the truth is your approach to affiliate marketing was a new way of looking at it for me and you&#039;re proof that you walk your talk.

All the best,
Paul

		<description>Chris,

I am currently reviewing your e-book on affiliate marketing.  Nicely done.

One of the secrets to information marketing is how you &quot;package&quot; information and then your offer around selling that information.

You put the information on stage, and because we are all humans...you can put the same exact information on stage in different forms...

And sell it over and over again.

&quot;Sell stuff that people want to buy.&quot;

&quot;People don&#039;t want to buy what you are selling them, only what they want to buy.&quot;

etc...

Nice post Chris.

		<description>Thanks Jennifer :-)

You&#039;re right - Confessions is actually a very good example of this principle at work. The title and the domain name subliminally convey that this is the secret, &quot;easy&quot; ride to the top.

(And in many ways, it is, because it skips out on all the crap that&#039;s not worth doing, and my approach is a lot more sales-focused.)

However, the book itself has the reader start out &quot;lazy&quot;, and then gradually use that first wave of momentum to their advantage to rapidly compound their efforts and over time, build a REAL business.

Thus, it fulfills the promise of achieving &quot;low effort&quot; commissions in comparison to other traditional approaches, and yet if the reader follows the entire blueprint, what they&#039;ll inevitably end up doing is going to be anything but &quot;lazy&quot;.

Smarter, for sure - but not just something that&#039;s been slapped together on a whim.

------------------------------------------------------------

Maria,

I don&#039;t recall your previous email, but then I do get a lot of JV requests (daily, actually), and I physically can&#039;t respond to all of them - otherwise it&#039;s all I&#039;d be doing :-)

Your product looks great, but it&#039;s not the direction I want to take my list promotions at the moment. Also, it&#039;s more catered to the &quot;raise capital&quot; niche, more so than affiliate marketing.

This is largely because generally, there&#039;s not much startup capital required to launch practically any kind of affiliate marketing business.

Best of luck,

-Chris</description>
