The One Where Lisa “Big-Ups” Her Favourite Online Marketers
I recently cancelled almost all my Internet Marketing membership subscriptions. The only two I kept were the Immediate Edge and Yanik Silver’s Underground Secret Society. It’s not that the others were in any way poor quality, it’s that I just don’t have time for all of them (not if I want to implement what I get from them too)…and some I have simply “grown out of.”
I kept the Immediate Edge because, simply put, it’s fantastic! It is a great mix between classic marketing advice and the latest tips for staying ahead online.
Yanik Silver is an online marketer who admits to being a total dunce when it comes to the technical workings of the Internet but takes proven offline marketing advice and translates it into online strategies. Yanik was one of the first marketers I can across online and I’ve stuck with his stuff ever since. Two years ago I went to his Underground Seminar in Washington and it was the best IM conference I have ever been to for both speakers and networking. Last year and this year I have been paid-up to attend again but circumstances have meant pulling out, and I have had to content myself with the cds/dvds of the events instead. They have always been exceptional quality and packed full of seriously useful content from speakers that Yanik describes as “under the radar” and not the “usual suspects” who speak at every IM seminar or conference.
The reason I mention this now is because I received an email from Yanik yesterday to say that, inspite of his technical in-expertise (thank goodness he is so good at oursourcing) he is going to be broadcasting some of this weekend’s Underground Seminar 4 live from Los Angeles over the internet. Just 12 minutes, twice a day, tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday…but from previous experience that will be enough to get at least a handful of great business-boosting tips.
I know it’s the latest thing from Internet Marketers to give away something free or do something a bit technically adventurous in order to upsell you to a paid product (actually, it’s not that new it’s just that people are making a big deal out of it at the moment), but I say GRAB ALL THE FREE STUFF YOU CAN and only buy if you truly believe that this is something you can afford at this moment in time and is going to help you progress in your business.The free content that has come from the likes of Ed Dale, Dan Raine, Frank Kern, John Reese and many others over the last year has been astonishing and they have all given strategies that require no spending, but which if you do something with them will bring in more prospects and more money.

Enjoy!
