e_Marketing Blog Joint Venture Seeker from Liz Tomey If you're on any of those guru's mailing lists you've probably seen several major product launches over the last few months. These things can be wildly successful (if you can believe the numbers), and that's because a whole bunch of marketers get together with their friends and associates and promote the launch to their respective lists. These launches are called "Joint Ventures". The commissions offered to JV partners are big - often from 50%-80%, so there is a major incentive to promote the heck out of these products. Marketers like Liz Tomey have proven that Joint Ventures are not just for the big guys. There's actually room for "the little guy"... especially those that want to move up the ranks. Liz herself is one heck of an example. Her very first JV (for the first product she ever created) brought in $37,000 in just two weeks... ok, so it's not a million bucks, but it's not something to shake a stick at, either! She describes that launch as "life changing," as it would be for just about anyone. Both she and her husband were able to stay at home with their 5 kids... and it literally set the foundation for their whole business. Quite a story, huh? That's why I wanted to check out Liz's product called Joint Venture Seeker, to see if it sheds any light on JVs. Liz is surprisingly straightforward and candid in her presentation. In fact, what I found was something rare... a series of video tutorials (10 of them!) that take you through the entire process of planning, getting, and carrying out JVs... step by step! Liz speaks from experience, and it shows. She's worked with most of the top people in the industry - and even got 8 of them to share their top secrets in a series of hard-hitting interviews - all recorded in these videos. Liz even includes the transcripts free of charge... along with an incredible batch of bonuses that I actually loved reading. Liz has also put together detailed workbooks that go along with the course, so you never feel like you're lost. I actually picked up quite a few tips - stuff that I hadn't thought of in our own JV process that I'm sure will dramatically improve our results. The price of these videos is surprisingly low when you consider the impact they could make on your marketing efforts. Using Joint Ventures boils down to this: you can harness the power and endorsements of several other successful marketers who promote your product to their very large and loyal lists. There is no faster or easier way to kick start your internet business than by using Joint Ventures, and Liz's videos offer an awesome step by step guide to making the most of them. Here's a link for you: Liz Tomey Joint Venture Seeker Videos Just one more point... I especially like Liz's advice for people who have no list... she did her first JV before she had a list, so she knows what she's talking about! Submitting Videos and Video RSS Feeds Here's a great post that lists many different places to upload videos, services to help you do mass-uploads, and where to submit video RSS feeds. Where to Submit Videos and Video RSS/MRSS Feeds. This article lists 4 different ways to submit videos to multiple sites (mass-uploads) so you don't have to do it all manually (very time-consuming). Personally I prefer to use Traffic Geyser because it uploads to more than 30 sites - including all the most important such as Youtube, Revver, Google Video, MetaCafe, etc. - and it will turn your audio track into a podcast and upload that to a further 20+ podcast sites. With our own service called Video Traffic Multiplier we use Traffic Geyser for the distribution of our videos. I have also used (and continue to use) TubeMogul, but it has some limitations. However, it is free. New Video Marketing Blogs For the sake of keeping things straight and becoming more focused I've reorganized a couple of my blogs. Here's where you'll find future posts on specific niches we cover: SEO Strategy and SEO Techniques |

Spring Cleaning is Always in SeasonMar 22, 2006 - Linknet Product News Spring Cleaning is Always in Season Mar 22, 2006 - Linknet House and Home - By Vincent Platania Fuller Brush ProductsLemon scents wafting through the halls, dust bunnies banished, crisp, clean curtains waving in the wind. Ahhh, spring cleaning. == Carpet Cleaning Dallas Texas == Did the season pass you by? Never fear. It doesn’t have to be spring for homeowners to get the itch to clean house. No matter what season it is, homeowners can enjoy that same feeling by shaking the dirt down from the ceiling and sweeping it out the door. Clean scents, polished floors, spotless window glass, and scrubbed decks - here we come. Plan Ahead Before jumping in gather tools, cleaning supplies, buckets, trash bags, boxes, and a few friends to help out. Wear something old so good clothes won’t get stained, or bleached. Decide how much time it will take to clean based on the size of your home and how many family members will pitch in. Tool Time A week before you plan to start your spring cleaning marathon, review what supplies you have on hand. Do you have: - Ammonia for wiping away grease - Foaming cleaners for bathtubs - Squeegees to make quick work of window washing - Buckets for mixing concentrated cleaners - Cleaners made for washing cars and trucks - Oven cleaner - Floor cleaners for wood and linoleum - Stiff-bristled large brooms to sweep away winter dirt - Angled soft-bristle brooms for indoor use - Sponges and scrubbing brushes for general use - Lambswool and ostrich feather dusters to clean in hard-to-reach places - Laundry detergent booster - Static free cleaner for electronics - Oil soaps for wood cabinets - Cleaners formulated for artificial plants - Oxygenizing cleaner to remove spots and stains without bleaching fabrics, upholstery or carpets - Other brushes for specific uses: toilet bowl brush, refrigerator coil brush - Ladder for reading ceiling fans, tall bookcases and to wash windows Purchase versatile concentrated cleaners when possible. Benefits include being able to dilute cleaner to different strengths depending on the cleaning job involved. They also cost less per use and require less packing making them environmentally-friendly. Brushes and brooms that are made for a specific purpose make the job easier. Toilet bowl brushes scrub under the rim with less effort. Cleaning refrigerator coils is as easy as an afterthought when you use a soft brush made for just that job. A lamb’s wool duster with extended pole makes it easy to sweep walls and ceilings for cobwebs and dust. The static in the wool works like a magnet to attract dust with little effort on your part. Rags, sponges, gloves that protect your hands from the effects of cleaners, mops, and brooms can be stored in one place until you need them. A small laundry basket or extra bucket can be used to carry supplies from room to room. Create one bucket of supplies for bedrooms, living rooms, dining areas, and one bucket of supplies for bathrooms and the kitchen. Don’t forget cleaning supplies for outdoor decks, window washing and the car. A ladder (and someone to hold it steady) is required for window washing. A soft chamois and cleaner specifically formulated for washing cars makes the finish cleaner and shinier. Make washing windows easier by purchasing two sizes of squeegees - a small one for multi-paned windows and a large one for sliding glass doors. Use the squeegee to dry the window for the quickest, streak-free finish. Take it from the Top to the bottom Clean one room at a time from top to bottom before moving on. Decide whether curtains and rugs go to the cleaners or get tossed in the washer with a laundry booster. Always start at the top. Sweep for cobwebs and wash ceilings and light fixtures first with a lambswool duster. Light fixtures that are dirty or greasy, as they are likely to be if located near the stove, need to be removed and washed in warm soapy water. Move down the walls, dusting pictures and decorations. The rest of the room can be best tackled by starting at the door and moving around the room. Pick up objects, dust, clean, remove spots, vacuum. Bring a box and a bag into the room. Your goal is to find a storage place for everything. Books go back in the bookcase, pictures back on the mantel. Loose papers need to be filed, tossed, or shredded. Spring cleaning is also the perfect time to weed out all the objects that are cluttering up your home. The box is for objects you plan to donate, give to friends, or sell at a yard sale. The garbage bag is for everything else you don’t want anymore that cannot be recycled. Spring may have sprung, but remember spring cleaning is for all seasons. Remember the Fuller Brush man?
