It really makes me mad!
A really awesome offer comes out, and it is only available for the first 500 people or only available for 7 days!
I understand why they do it, because too many people buying the same product means it has absolutely no value…
but it still irritates me when my customers don’t have the money to buy it now… or the timing is wrong – they are on vacation…
In any case, I can’t help as many people with their growth unless they can get what they need when they need it.

The software business that Eric and Jeff are practically giving away for about 1% of what you would be paying to develop these products yourself – will no longer be available for sale as soon as the video is gone from this page:

It could happen TODAY. In fact it’s very likely to happen TODAY.
What I’m talking about is Auto Traffic Avalanche being taken off the shelves. Permanently.
See here:
If you don’t take action now, you’ll never find out how to tap into the 1.8 Billion Marketplace with just 13 clicks and 12 minutes a day.
Seriously.
It’s that easy.
But there’s one stumbling block…
Copies are HIGHLY limited and this is most likely going to be gone for good today.
To grab a risk-free 60 day trial copy you just have to head here. Watch this free presentation right now and get in on this underground secret…
I’m being deadly serious when I say you need to hurry. Mike is putting his reputation on the line with this software. There won’t be any second chances.
To your success,
Micheal & Yvonne
PS – Your last chance to purchase these.
Yvonne talked me into offering a traffic bonus for those who purchase either of these… So we will give you 50,000 credits to both Servurl.com and Gulpe.com if you purchase your own software business during this firesale or Auto Traffic Avalanche while it is still available!

To collect your bonus, just open a support ticket (paste in your receipt) at:
The very first person to believe in me when I first made a decision to pursue Internet Marketing full time was Ross Goldberg. He was behind me during the good and the bad times. He always knew when I needed that swift kick in the pants to get me out of a slump, and he always encouraged me to keep going when things were not going my way (or I did not see far enough down the road to know that I just needed to keep going).
I remember the phone call I received in July of 2008, the year I finally walked away from my job. Ross was in Chicago getting set up for his Masters Seminar, and he told me “you need to get up here, bro!”
I was wallowing in the crap that surrounded me at home, and I did not know how I would be able to swing a trip to Chicago, let alone get a hotel room. Well, when I got that call, I had been pretty down, so I told Ross, “I really don’t have the money for a trip to Chicago… I took the time off from work, in the hopes that my commissions would come in, but nothing… I have $50 in my Paypal.”
“Listen, I really need you up here, don’t worry about the hotel room, I’ll make sure you have a place to stay, just get up here, bro!”
So I checked my frequent flyer miles, and I found I had enough miles to book a flight, but the only flight that was available was in less than 2 hours, and I was not ready… but I booked it anyway, because I knew that Ross was counting on me. It took my last $50 to reserve the ticket, because it was less than 24 hours to fly out, but I was able to get the flight.
I sent an email out to my list between shower and packing, telling them about my trip and how I had my coaching program available at an outrageous discount and that they could score it while I was flying to Chicago. Then I drove like the wind to Gainesville Airport, and of course I missed the flight, because it takes an hour and a half to get to Gainesville, but I knew that a second flight was leaving from there an hour later. As soon as I arrived in Gainesville, the ticket agent said I had missed my flight, but that they had gotten me a spot on the next flight, so I ended up getting to Chicago that same evening!
During my layovers, I advertised a couple of products that I had on Rapid Action Profits and found that I had made a couple of sales netting me about $30, which helped pay my lunch and dinner. But I arrived late that night, and I couldn’t catch up with Ross. his phone went straight to voice mail, which told me he was crashed, because he was running pretty hard all day, getting set up for the event the next morning.
I hung around the hotel lobby for a while, and finally settled in for the night on a loveseat in a (somewhat) quiet section where all the conference rooms were, and stretched out to sleep a while. Around 2AM, I still hadn’t slept, and I looked at my email via my phone and noticed that I had made a sale of my coaching program. I was excited, because that was $200… so I quickly went to the front desk and told them I needed a room. The clerk said they were sold out, but she pointed me to the hotel across the street! I went across the street and booked a room for $179 for the night – I needed to sleep, the music in the lobby at the first hotel was too perky for me to sleep…lol.
The rest of the weekend continued to be filled with miraculous experience after miraculous experience,, as I found just enough money to get what I needed – either lunch, dinner, parking fees and I bunked with Ross in his room along with two other marketers who slept during the day and worked most of the night on graphics and other projects (they usually didn’t get into the room until Ross and I headed out, so we hardly ever saw them…lol).
I would not have met Felicia Slattery, Tracy Repchuck and James Lee there, which would have made it much harder for me to become friends with them at a later time (each of whom I have seen multiple times since that event). I doubt I would have been chosen for the Impact Action Team, had I not made that leap of faith. And I would not have solidified my friendship with a certain Yvonne Lyon, whom I had first met in person at the first Masters Seminar. We had lunch together with Willie Crawford, dinner with a huge group and of course, she was helping Ross with the seminar as I was. So I managed to talk with her quite a bit throughout the weekend.
That Chicago Masters Seminar was the turning point in my business, too. I now had a coaching client, who went on to become a speaker in his own right, not even one year later. I had developed relationships with many of my favorite marketers, who are now some of my best online friends – Lee & Robin Collins, Alan Bechtold, Erik Stafford (who spoke for the first time on Ross’ stage) and of course Donna Fox, who I was bumping into at almost every event I attended or helped at in 2007 and 2008.
Because of Ross Goldberg, I never gave up on my dream. I hope you have a friend like Ross in your life. Someone who will not give you everything, but will believe in you and help you become your best. I think there are times we take a friendship for granted, and I feel like sometimes I took advantage of my friendship with Ross to get access to his training and tools – even though I would gladly work for Ross on whatever he wanted done if he asked.
But because of this access, I was able to develop on online presence that makes it very difficult to erase. Ross revealed everything he knew about web traffic in his first ebook, Traffic Masters. Then his Traffic Manifesto updated the Traffic Masters to include much of what is taught today by the other marketers. It is no surprise to me that Ross is releasing his first print book: The Web Traffic Book. He has been the guy that the experts talk about when they are discussing traffic strategy. And his software is designed to work without leaving a footprint, which Ross explains in detail on his blog.
When you get his book, keep it next to your computer. You will find yourself referring to it time and again as you plan out your SEO. You might want a couple copies if you have a staff, because having everyone on the same page is crucial in getting your message out there.
Since today is Ross’ birthday, tell others about his book. Either you can send them here to read about the man behind the legend, or send them to his website:
Then tell my friend Happy Birthday!
So I was waiting for my new DSL modem to come…
I was sick of Dimhouse… their stupidity was unmatched over the last few months, and I really had my fill when they turned off our service because we returned an extra cable modem that the technician had told us to return when we were moved into our new place.
So I signed up for Century Link…
I was hoping I had not made a mistake, but then, how could anyone top Dimhouse?
When I received the package from Walmart… I quickly set up the modem, but I didn’t have a username and password that the modem tells me I absolutely need. So I call Century Link. I ask them for the information that my modem is certain that I need.
I am directed to the support team. I am happy, they will tell me what I need to know.
The very first thing they ask me is if I had gotten the modem from them. I answer that I had not. “Well, I am sorry, but we do not provide support (basically this sounds like FU to me) for any modems but our own.
“But, all I need to know is what the username and password for my account is, so that my modem can connect to the network!”
“Sorry, sir, we do not provide any technical support for any modems but those that you lease from Century Link.” She is very determined to not tell me anything.
“Look, you are not providing support to the modem, you are providing support to one of your valued customers… All I need is to know what this username and password is to access the network.” I am not to be denied, my feet are firmly planted in the kitchen, fighting stance… except for the fact that my cell phone is up to my ear and I am looking at my laptop on the kitchen counter – the only place I could place the DSL modem, since that was where the phone outlet was located.
“First of all,” she started in on me. “If you were using one of our modems, you would not need a user name and password, since they operate via DHCP. Which means you do not have the right kind of modem.
“Second of all,” she chimed in, almost full of glee that she had gotten me good this time, but with a belligerent voice that told me that if I kept this up, she was going to come over to my house and beat me to a pulp. “If you connect our modem to a router that is not one of ours, we won’t help you with that either!”
I was fit to be tied… I could feel the flames shooting out of my ears… steam coming out of my nostrils. Good thing I had just trimmed my hair that weekend. Choking back a load of venom that would have left her in tears, I calmly said, “Well, if this is the kind of technical support I can expect from this company, you can keep your DSL AND your modems. Put me back on to customer service!”
Armed with the little piece of knowledge that the support person had unwittingly given me in her attempt to not help me, I was going through the settings on my modem and looking for something that had something remotely to do with DHCP and was not finding anything like that. I did see something in the settings that was not PPPoE or PPPoA, so I selected it, and when I restarted the modem, I was connected to the internet.
Lesson to be learned #1
Listen to everything that people tell you. Sometimes they will let something slip. The DHCP thing was exactly what I needed. I was able to get connected.
But the story doesn’t end there.
The speed I had purchased for my DSL was supposed to be 10 MBs (megabits per second…) but when I ran a speed test, I was only at 2.9 MBs… one third of what I was paying for. Hmmm. That is when the customer service person came back on. By then I had my offended voice, and I told her everything that had transpired. She agreed that I had been treated rudely, but that Century Link did not support any other equipment but their own. Then she offered to send me the modem and told me the lease fee would be offset by a $5 credit each month. So I told her to go ahead and send me the modem…
Lesson to be learned #2
Listen to your clients, and do something to help them, even if you can’t help them.
This customer service lady knew the difference between a customer and a former customer, and she did what she could to keep me as a present customer. I am still limping along at a slower speed, but you can bet that the second I get the modem from them, I am going to run speed tests and then I am going to be on the phone with that technical support person and I am going to get my speed back up to 10 MBs! Count on it!

How often have you wanted to create a membership website but didn’t know where to start?
Micro-Membership is a basic, easy to use WordPress plugin that adds full featured “membership” functionality to any WordPress blog. The real benefit of this plugin is that it seamlessly integrates PayPal or ClickBank payment processing into your blog allowing you to charge for content and automatically collect payments from your users.
Fully Automated Membership System
Micro-Membership fully automates your membership system from the user registration to confirmation of payment and account activation. Micro-Membership integrates with the subscription and notification services of both PayPal and ClickBank to fully automate the subscription billing and payment process. Micro-Membership generates the required PayPal or ClickBank “Subscribe” buttons on the fly, so you don’t need to add or change any WordPress code.
Fast Activation & Install
Micro-Membership installs just like any other WordPress plugin. You can use use WordPress’s Manual installation process or you can install “the old way” – using FTP to place the plugin in your WordPress plugins directory.
FIVE (5) Membership Levels
Micro-Membership creates and manages five membership and payment levels:
· Free – the user has registered thru WordPress but has chosen not to pay for a subscription
· Standard – the user has paid for the “standard” subscription
· Premium – the user has paid for a “premium” level subscription
· Executive – the user has paid for an “executive” level subscription
· Elite – the user has paid for an “elite” level subscription
You don’t have to implement all five subscription levels; for example, you may only need the “Paid” subscriptions. That’s fine – Micro-Membership still works great.
