====================
1) The curse of knowledge. . .
====================
Have you ever heard of the curse of knowledge?
If you’ve read the book “Made to Stick” you might remember this term.
In a nutshell, the curse of knowledge is the psychological phenomenon where once you know something well, it’s difficult to remember what it is like to NOT know that.
You see it all the time when people try to sell their products. They know the product back to front so it’s difficult to put themselves in the position of someone looking at the product for the first time.
Affiliate marketing (in fact running business online) is a bit like that for us. We’ve been doing it for such a long time, it’s part of our fabric.
Unfortunately, this curse of knowledge negatively impacts our ability to help you really see some traction in your business.
If you’ve been following along, you would have seen our recent push to help people make their first regular $1000 a month online.
Based on the feedback we’ve been receiving, it’s hitting the right spot for many of you. It appears that while getting rich is a nice idea, most of you would still be very happy to get over that first bump of generating some decent (and consistent) part time income.
As part of this theme, we held our first webinar last week with some quite amazing feedback. This was great and keeps us motivated to bring you the exact information you need to hit your financial goals.
We really want to help you succeed with the least amount of hair pulling possible.
But what exactly do you want to know about? Where are the gaps in your knowledge that need filling in these future webinars?
We had a few suggestions last week and have been kicking a few topics around the office today.
Here’s the shortlist:
– How to launch your first profitable website
– How to effectively discover profitable niches
– How to build an affiliate army to promote your product
– How to boost follow-up email conversion rates
– How to uncover emerging hot product ideas
– How to effectively spy on your competitors
– How to create profitable marketing funnels
– How to use continuity (so memberships) to maintain online
growth
What do you reckon? Which one is most pressing on your mind?
Fill out the 30 second survey below and cast your vote.
Vote now:
We’ll announce the new topic next week based on this feedback.
By the way, if you think these suck, there is a spot in the survey for other suggestions.
[UPDATE: This survey is over.
Oh… Adam took down last week’s webinar from his server. If you missed out on this amazing webinar, we’ve reposted it on our streaming server here:

2) It’s nearly ready I promise!
====================
A while back I wrote the article series “How to make $1000 a month from scratch” as a way to stop my friends pestering me. I mean that in the nicest way of course. :)
Essentially, it was a blueprint that I would share with my friends on the best way to make a part time income online even if you have little money, few skills and only a few hours a day of spare time.
I knew that these factors were a part of most of their lives, and so I needed to craft this blueprint very carefully to overcome these shortcomings.
When I posted this, the feedback was quite overwhelming.
Comments like:
“Awesome… This is some of the best business advice I have read.
Even after four years of business school.”
We’re just updating some of the information to make sure it’s 100% spot on with the newer methods we’re doing these days.
I’m excited to be giving this to you guys next week.
Surprisingly, it turned out to be around 70 pages. All 100% free for you in absolute step-by-step format.
Make sure you open your email from us next week to get the download link. I can’t wait to hear your feedback.
