I’ve Deleted My Contact Form

My contact form is gone. Go ahead; click on that link. You’ll be taken to the same URL where my contact form used to be, but the form won’t be there. Instead, you’ll find new instructions on how to contact me.
To save you, my blog readers, a bit of time, I’ll tell you what you [...]

Let’s Have A Little Contest

I came across a post on James Brausch’s blog today and want to have a bit of fun with it. The first person to correctly tell me why James made this blog entry gets a copy of James’ book, “The Internet Business Book, Volume 1″. I have two copies of the book and only need [...]

‘Tis The Season… For Change

I have almost 50,000 messages in my Gmail account. Not a lot by some standards, I know, but there’s a bad reason for this.
Some time ago, I listened to what has turned out to be bad advice and started subscribing to lots of mailing lists. The reason given for this was that it was a [...]

Internet Business According To James Brausch

This entry is a “Blogicide Resurrection” post. It appeared on my original blog and is good enough to post on my “resurrected” blog. If you want to know more about my “blogicide”, check out the first post on this blog.
As I looked over this post to prepare it for publication, I have to admit that [...]

BR: Christmas Gifts And Marketing

This post was originally posted on my blog on Wednesday, December 27, 2006 but was removed when I committed “blogicide” (see the first post on this blog for more information). I’ve decided to re-post it because, if you are not too late, you might be able to sign up for James Brausch’s Christmas Gift, Version [...]

A Tale Of Two Or Three Blogs - Plus This One

It all starts with Robert Phillip’s Cybercashology blog. Robert talks about a problem he was having with his blog in this post (I won’t go into the details here; click the link to read the details for yourself) and asked people to leave comments if they might have a suggestion.
I love this type of blogging; [...]

Guest Post By Sam Stephens, Download Guard

I received the following email from Sam Stephens a few days ago. Sam makes a great product called Download Guard (or DLGuard) that prevents your digital downloads from being downloaded without authorization. I like the product because it works and because Sam, unlike many online businesspeople, has developed a sustainable business model for supporting and [...]

Product Valuation: Guaranteed Value Or Inflated Claims (Plus A Price Test)?

I’ve decided to start answering questions via email. Of course, like most so-called Internet Marketing Gurus, my time is worth $2,000 per hour. Since I think it will take me about 5 minutes to answer an email, I’ve decided to charge $166.67 per email. If your question will take me longer to answer, I’ll write [...]

Second blog, same domain (different sub-domain): Posted [...]

The Book That Made Me Do Something Unethical

Blame it on Joe Vitale. It’s his fault (how’s that for not accepting responsibility for your actions?).
I’ve been listening to a series of CDs that Joe Vitale did (from his Hypnotic Marketing Fusion collection) while I drive back and forth to my job. He was talking with Yanik Silver about copywriting on a CD that [...]
