I apologize for not posting more! Between nearly 800 forum members, my own campaigns/projects, and getting ready for ad:tech I haven't had much time for anything else. I will get back to regular posting after ad:tech for sure.
I just wanted to do a kind of random post on things I have been thinking about & working on.
Stuff Worth Mentioning
Even though I have never met or exchanged so much as an email with him, I have been a reader of Chad from CDF network's since his blog started. He recently released a local lead generation guide which has a lot of people talking. Check it out here local lead plan
I have dabbled in local lead gen a bit and I do think there is some good opportunity there if you have the personality for it. The part I hated about it was actually dealing with the clients. I am going to pick up a copy of Chad's guide though because I'm sure I could improve on that.
My friend Mr. Green runs the best affiliate marketing blog (In New Zeland anyway) and is always full of useful posts. Check out his posts for some great insight.
Corey and I get questions about tracking when doing pre-pop submits. Corey wrote a great post about it here Simple subID tracking for PrePop email submits
Corey and I also just finished our 8 week webinar series PPV 123. It went really well and we had a lot of happy students. We have another course coming out soon that is something all internet marketers can relate to so stay tuned!
Jonathan Volk & I will be doing a Facebook & PPV Mastermind session at ad:tech Tue April 20th. I'm really excited about that and for hearing Jonathan's insights into Facebook.
Really Random
In an effort to break out of the work from home rut where you stay in all day I have been trying to get a little more adventerous.Recently my adventures have got me into:
- My first hangliding lesson (awesome!)
- A Trapeze lesson (terrifying!)
- Indoor Skydiving (fun!)
- and a contortion class at the San Francisco Circus school (painful!)
What I am finding is the busier I make myself the more productive I am. The days where I have all day free to work are usually when I get the least done. The days where I am really busy and have to sit down and focus to get things done I end up getting a lot more accomplished.
Ok, back to work on my presentation for ad:tech!
