I’ve been putting some really good articles here on the blog.
But it has all been what I thought you would like to see and learn about.
I’ve been thinking  that perhaps you may have other ideas.

The people who are just finishing the course on How to make your own products have been asked what they would like to see,  and to send me one of the products they made in the course.  The best ones will be featured here on the blog.

I’d like you all to feel that you can submit questions and comments at any time, but I’d like you all to know that if  you have a report or article, you may send that to me too.  We are a community of marketers,  and can all learn many things from each other.

Won’t you  join in and put in your Two Cents Worth too? This is an open invitation.  Please accept and send in some of your ideas and comments.

The Premier offering of my newest product was a huge success.

“Ten Products You Can Make in a Day.”     This great little E-mail Course  debuted a few
weeks ago and caused a sensation with the big smash hit that it was.

The E-Course is ten different products  that a person can easily make in a day,  and most of them in just a
few hours.  The course,  is New and Original,  not a re-hash,  but written personally by myself.
The products are primarily designed to be used for free gifts in the Giveaway Events, or for squeeze
pages.   I give a short version in the course,  but by adding to the product any of them can easily be
used as sale-able products.

These are ideal for newer people in marketing,  and all of the products are simple and easy and most
of them free to make.  This can easily cut off a lot of time in getting started.

I will be offering the course to all my readers here on the Blog.  All of  my readers who are already
signed up as regular readers don’t have to do anything,  you will get an email with the offering and
a link for it.

The rest of you will have to either sign up as a Blog regular,  or sing for your E-course.   
If you would like to have the course,  you will have to leave a comment and give me one good
reason why you think it will help you in your marketing and making money online.  Easy enough?

Oh,  by the way,  the Ecourse delivered to your mail box every second day until the 10 lessons are
complete,   is completely Free!   And if you don’t think it was worth while,  I’ll give you your money
back!    (lol)    Naturally,  I’ll expect a nice testimonial.

The course will be up in a few days  (my programmer took the Holidays off).

So start filling up that comment box!

There’s been some negative talk about Giveaway events getting old hat, and fewer people supporting them, and that they were dying off. Well Giveaways are still going strong and getting better than ever. If you haven’t participated in one,  its time to get into the act.

As a JV (Joint Venture)  partner:

• You get a chance to add lots of people to your mailing list.
• You get to put up a product,  that will put YOUR name and product before more people than pick your gift,  and these are people in the business.
• And,  you get to put up a product as an upsell of the one you give away,  so you can also make some money.
• You get to put up a One Time Offer (OTO) to sell a product,  and everyone gets to see it (more publicity.)

And on several  of the events, there is also small 3 liner ads that are at the top of each page. And to top that all off… you also have a chance to win some real money if you bring in the most JV partners and Member guests. And all of this is actually free, (unless you upgrade). You actually have member status too, so you can get any and all of the other gifts being offered by the other JV partners.

Of course, you can just come in free when the event officially opens and grab everything you can get your paws on…

Soooo   what are you waiting for?  An invitation?  OK .. in that case:  here is your personal invitation:

Paul Hooper and I are having our first giveaway event together,  and we would like you to come and join us.  Its a Christmas themed event.. and we are doing some things differently. FIRST we are giving the Members Random Money Prizes — so not only can you grab a bunch of goodies,  but you might also win some money. And for you technically challenged (as I am),  if you need help as a JV partner we have an expert standing by to help you load your gift.

So come along… we officially open the doors on Wednesday, December 16th,  and runs until the 23rd.

BUT – - Doors are NOW open for the JV partners. Please join us, and have some fun while you learn a new method of making money and building your list.

The Answer to Product Overload.

Lessons life has taught me about Internet marketing.

When I was a young girl, I was passionate about figure skating. There was nothing in the world I wanted to do but skate. It was my love. I would do anything in order to be able to skate.

I was an only child in a fairly comfortably off family. When I was about 11 or 12, I was training for figure skating competitions. I skated about 5 to 6 hours a day, six days a week. My coach-teacher taught me two ½ hour sessions each day when I was in the pre-competition phase, and usually one ½ hour session a day otherwise. The lessons were frightfully expensive.

The lesson was given, and then it was time for me to do the practice part on my own. Being all of 11 or 12 at the time, and expected to tend to my own practice routine, was probably more than any usual pre-teen should be asked to do.

It was part of the routine. I learned it a little at a time, but I learned that in order for my coach not to give me a rough time next lesson, I had better show him that I had indeed practiced the previous lesson. I did just that, I was diligent, self motivated, and self-disciplined and self sufficient. Now, that was a lot to ask of any child.

So my first life lesson I learned was diligence, discipline and how to be a self starter. That’s more than most people learn in a life-time, and some never do.

Do I have to add that these are some of the best things for Internet marketers to have too? Most of us usually work alone. So no boss telling us what we need to do that day, (Yayy) BUT, someone needs to plan our day and set the schedule.

Here is where a lot of new marketers fail. So here we are our first week or so in our new ‘job,’ we sit staring at the computer screen. Where shall I start today? Oh, I know, how about the inbox?

Oh NO… (don’t do it…don’t do it) oops too late.

So there you are, Gee, here’s a good one, and probably just what I need to be able to make that million bucks this year. Oh dear, you know the rest. About 3 hours later, you still haven’t done any ‘work’ but you’ve worked all that time. So you take a break time, have some more coffee, and start back all refreshed and excited.

Anyone who is a home worker, needs self discipline, and self motivation, along with being a self starter, and be able to plan each days work ahead of time, so the work needed is the work that is scheduled for that day.

Come on now, if an 11 year old spoiled little girl can do it, surely you big hunk can do as much. Well, yes I did have a head start on you (lol).

Well, what you need to be effective in your at-home work, is a plan, and a schedule. My mentor, Alex Jeffreys, started our first lesson with what he called, “Forward to Basics,” because you needed a plan to go forward.

He taught us how to plan out each day, each week, each month, each 3 month period and finally a whole year. Then that was our first homework. But he showed us something very important that I’m passing along to you right now.

You plan the day, and you have a notebook and write down each thing you did each time, and how long it took you. He called it the “did list.” At the end of the first week you will start to see where you are losing time in non-essentials (to the work schedule). Then you take that schedule and re-work your daily plans.

I’ve found the biggest waste of working time, is the inbox! If I can avoid that until a later allotted time, I can actually accomplish a lot more work each day. But the biggest thing is sticking to a list of the tasks set for the day. As you learn to discipline yourself to that, you will have beaten the biggest hurdle new home workers have.

So, this week or this month, set yourself to be as disciplined as an 11 year old in a Tu-Tu, and determine to be that person that doesn’t need a boss to direct you.

How do you eat an elephant?

… One bite at a time!

Here’s how it works, first you determine what you want to accomplish for the year. Then you write down what it will take to do that. This is planning, but you need to write it out as you plan it.

Then, figure how to divide that year into 4 quarters of 3months each. Now that year is getting easier to accomplish. At least it should be. Well, it looks good on paper anyway.

Now, you rough draft each quarter. Put them into steps, the biggest one first, (that will be your last quarter) then each of the next ones. But only the basic plan for each until you’re ready for the last one.

The 90-Day Plan is the most important one. This is planning out what you will be doing each week, in detail. Say your 90-day plan is to increase your list by 2000. That really is going to take some planning. So if you divide that into 3 that means you’re looking at about 665 each month. Then you write out all the ways you could do that, and which ones are most feasible, and how to accomplish each of those means. What it takes to accomplish each one of those, maybe you will find you need a certain product or you can’t do it on your own and you may need some outsourcing.

By continually breaking down the jobs into smaller tasks, suddenly it’s no longer a huge thing (like an elephant) looming over you, ready to stomp on you, but just a dish you can eat – - one bite at a time.

Ok keep up the good work, and stick to each days tasks, that’s how you will succeed.

More next time, Be Happy
Daylynne

P.S.  Did all my diligence and discipline pay off?  YES,  I became a world class figure skater,      winning almost every competition I entered.   But what is more important,  as I grew up I used those same traits to become successful in every business venture I went into,  and was so successful in some of them that I was named  and appear in Who’s Who in professional and executive women.

Here’s to your success in becoming a diligent Internet Marketer, or any other field you desire.

25 Things that Everyone Should Know, or No One Should. (that’s why I’m publishing it on the net)

by Daylynne Starr

1) I have a great sense of humor. I love to laugh and love funny stuff. I love funny movies and shows, and look for humor in the everyday things of life. I really believe laughter is the best medicine.

2) I’m a control freak, and a perfectionist. I have a natural CEO mindset, which makes me a great CEO, but a real bitch at work.

3) I’ve had 4 books published, all non-fiction, and won Barnes & Noble Writers Awards. Also wrote 4 different monthly regular columns for national magazines, including being columnist for the AKC Gazette. I’m considered a professional writer, but I don’t consider myself a writer. I think I’m just a blabber-mouth, who has to resort to writing it down once in a while, usually just when everyone leaves the room,

4) I advocate changing your eating habits instead of dieting, doctors agree with me, Weight Watchers don’t.

5) I’m a “Who,” you know what a Who is? Well, there’s a lot of us. Fact is there are so many Who’s that they put out a BIG Book so you can keep all of us separate. And they call that Big Book, Who’s Who. NO, not the Who’s the Who. I had a very busy life before becoming an Internet marketer.

6) I love everything techy, but usually need someone to show me how to do them. But I have no idea how to text message… and fortunately none of my friends do either.

7) I count heavily on my outsource team. (shhh, don’t tell them that)

I have always been touchy about my age, and resented it when I was young and people’s first question to me was always, “How old are you little girl?” When I asked my mom why I couldn’t ask those people their age, I got hushed. PS, don’t ask me now either.

9) I love to eat… eating is more than a way to stay alive… its what makes living worth while… Good and Great foods… and not afraid to try almost anything. I have a great story about my first time eating raw oysters on the half shell, and in public.

10) I loved Alex Jeffreys lesson on planning… that’s me… somewhere in my life I forgot how to be spontaneous.

11) I love casinos… and go often. I have 5 Indian casinos within 15 miles of my home, and friends and I go often for a day or evening out for the great food they serve and a good time. I’m anything but a gambler. But I win a lot. (Must be my good clean living, LOL). Really looking forward to our Vegas trip.

12) I love the finer things of life… cultural things, like concerts, the opera, museums, and historical places and things, fine art and such. Classical music plays all the time I’m at my computer, with one of the best sound systems available.

13) I’m a shopper. Shopping isn’t exactly my first love, but pretty close to it. Well! I AM a woman after all!

14) I’m a loyal friend, almost to a fault, even if they’ve hurt me. I value true friendship, but don’t have enough of them.. still trying to find one in marketing, want to apply?

15) I’m an incurable night owl. My usual hours are from about 10:30 to 11am to about 2:30 to 4 am. But I hate to be phoned after 9:30 pm I do my best creative thinking and doing after midnight.

16) I hate “roughing it” camping, and hiking stuff. I did my share of fishing and hunting things with my husband, so I could be his buddy. Now, my idea of roughing it is when the Hilton runs out of ice. Warm drinks, UGH

17) I hate being called to join someone’s mentoring online course, especially when one of their EMPLOYEES is going to be my personal coach… all for $5000 and up.. if he’s so good, I keep wondering why that employee is still working a JOB?

18) I am an absolute couch potato.. I did my share of exercise in athletics when I was young. I love curling up in front of the Big Screen TV with an old classic movie, or a new thriller. Pass the popcorn.

19) I’m Ms. Fuss-budget, I like everything neat and tidy, a place for Everything and Everything in it’s place. You should see how neat and tidy my desk is. NOT!

20) I love being pampered, like what woman doesn’t?

21) One of my faults is that I love to help people, and show them what and how to do things. It seems there are a lot of people who just don’t want my help, and resent it. Wonder why? (refer to #2)

22) When I was a teen, I was a world class figure skater. But when I first started, one of the first things I was taught, is that it was OK to fall, as a fact, I would fall many times before I became a really good skater. But the most important thing about falling, is learning to always get back up again.

23) Hello! I’m Daylynne and I’m a Choc-o-holic. It’s incurable. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it

24) I had to learn to be a procrastinator…now having problems unlearning it, seems I don’t get around to it.

25) Money isn’t a motivator to me. I’ve been very very rich, and I’ve been pretty broke, and believe me rich is better! And you know that money doesn’t buy happiness, but you can sure be miserable in style.

26) I don’t like writing my “About Me” page, or telling people my biography, because my life has been so interesting, adventurous, exciting, and rewarding, no one ever believes it and brands me as a liar. So this 25 or more things about me is as close as you’re gonna get. Oh yeah, did I mention, I’m real bossy too.

Oh and did I mention I’m single, and I love moonlight walks on the beach and sitting by a cozy fire holding hands with my partner…. Opps wrong list…LOL
