It was just two years ago today so suddenly, and unexpectedly I lost my dear Sheila, about 00.30 Sheila had gone downstairs for a snack, I suddenly woke to a strange noise, jumping out of bed and running downstairs I found Sheila chocking on a nutragrain bar of all things, despite me performing the Hinderic manoeuvre then manually clearing her throat and performing CPR, I could not revive her.

Sheila was the love of my life, sole mate, wife and best friend. She had been so supportive in all things, even when in 1999 I started the long journey into online marketing, working full time then sat at the computer often until 3 in the morning and up again for work before 7.

Sheila and I the last photo

Sheila would proof read all my typing despite having poor eye site, correcting my grammar and spelling mistakes she knew I would make it on line. 2002 found us together 24/7 when at last I could go full time on the internet.

The next four years were good despite various health problems and family tragedies we supported each other in every aspect.

Although I consider myself a strong person on Sheila’s passing grief depression set in a big way, for months it took me all my time to just scan my email, thankfully I received very few customer service requests as even the simple ones appeared to be a huge amount of work, I had no focus at all.

Part 2 to follow the business killer…

Well, they have done it again, earlier this year Internet Marketing specialists: John Delavera, JP Schoeffel, Jeremy Gislason and Simon Hodgkinson. joined forces to build a simply massive membership site – As you can imagine this thing is just packed with killer stuff…

They have reopened with another huge amount of great content. It took me hours to download and evaluate before I wrote this.

Inside you’ll find absolutely everything you need to increase your sales, grow your sites, and add serious profits to your bottom line.

There’s brand new software tools, videos, audios, books, courses and so much more it’d be almost impossible to list everything here.

This is a limited number site as they don’t want to flood the market they do want you to make money, as a matter of fact until the 17th members can sell membership for 100% commission, Yes these ethical marketers are actually giving the members all the one off membership fee so in esance you make one sale the membership is free, make more than one sale you are already in profit even before you have time to take advantage of all the high value content.

By the way, the price is going up on the 18th but for the next 7 days only You can take advantage of the intro price.

As great as Frank is with his free masscrontrole information my personal view is he may have dropped a clanger, Responsive lists are built on trust, it is far too easy to diminish or even destroy that trust using subject lines like ‘Bad News’ particularly if it’s just a ploy to have people open the email or the content is primarily a pitch for a product.

Frank’s masscrontrole must work as I am amazed at how many experienced marketers have just sent the stock email for Frank’s video without any thought of diminishing trust, As well respected marketers some may get away with it BUT I would really suspect the unsubscribe rate to those lists will take a big jump. The bigger problem will be when marketers just building lists use this type of tactic which could virtually kill their small list and set them back months or even dishearten them enough to kill their business altogether.

Building a list with honesty and integrity does take time, for goodness sakes don’t kill your list by dropping a clanger.

Well, it has been rough few days with the computer’s the gremlins struck big time.

First off my trusty HP notebook slowed nearly to reverse, my own fault for not keeping an eye on downloads. I spent a full day moving files and programs onto a new 500gig external hard drive including my IM Index (organisation system). After re optimising the notebook was running sweet, just as good as taking it out of the box.

Thennnnnnnnnnnnn……..

The gremlins took over the new hard drive failed. The light went to RED the drive started clicking. When did this happen? Immediately, on my return from buying the new pack of DVD’s to run the backup. All my source files, video and audio, GONE. Thankfully, the majority of files are also on the desktop computer and the ones that aren’t are recent downloads, I can replace, I just have to wait for the replacement hard drive to arrive now.

Gremlins 2

My information site officiallifestyle . info showed as going over quota on checking, I found it was a vulnerability in the partner link exchange program well taken advantage of by a link spammer, the main problem after locking out the spammer, the server software stooped me from removing any files. Being over quota I did not have the space to create a trash bin, No great problem I thought as this is my own server just increase the quota and clean up. GRRRRRRRR quota increased by 250% still no trash bin. still working on that one.

Gremlins 3

Then just to cap it off today one of the grandchildren managed to download something onto the networked computer I have set up for them that froze the wireless connection to the desktop system. A simple reset and running the spam check did not work.

So at this moment in time I have a computer full of business files that wont talk to the net and a notebook with no business files that will and a server that won’t let me delete files.

I have pest control coming tomorrow to remove a wasp nest in the house wall I wonder if they have a way of removing gremlins? I wont hold my breath

As it’s about midnight, I think a couple of whiskeys and an early night I will de grmlinise in the morning.

Twitter appears to have come to the for this week I came across an excellent video produced by Harris Fellman on Monday. Then Tuesday John and soren launched tweet my blog a great wigit for wordpress visit tweet my blog to pick up your free wigit. If you don’t use Twitter yet you are missing out on a great source of traffic to say nothing of the great information you can pick up following the people in your niche.

Back to the wigit, if you look in the right side bar you will see my Twitter feed click any of the notes it will take you to my Twitter page where you can see all the tweets I have made and who I am in conversation with, see something that interests you click that and follow through for more information. This can work as a fast track for info and you are much more likely to see relevant stuff you may miss by not opening emails or speed reading (skipping over) parts of web pages.

Now I am not an expert on Twitter by any means but for the few days I have been using it I am very impressed, it could become addictive but selective clicking of tweets can also speed up the way you gather pertinent information.

It costs nothing but a little time to try out, Go ON see if it fits in with your business model.
