Last night at the Niche Affiliate Marketing System Seminar in Atlanta, GA, Lynn Terry finally opened that MacBook Pro that she ordered for video editing. She swears up and down that she is not switching to Mac, but we all know that "once you go mac, you never go back."

In the video, Lynn opens Her MacBook Pro to applause.

Paul Colligan believe it?

Will Ed Dale fly to Tennessee to confirm personally?

Let me know your predictions.  Will Lynn GO MAC, or will she GO BACK?

I am sitting in a session listening to Internet Marketing Guru Kevin Riley.  Kevin is really cool, and at the moment he is talking to the entire NAMS group about what happens after the workshop.

He started off his talk about how fired up the entire crowd is.  After all, people here are really fired up and are ready to go and implement.  The problem is (which Kevin correctly recognizes) is that when people get home stuff is getting into the way.  That stuff is called life.

People have doubts, discomfort, distractions and other junk that keeps them from acting on their plans.  He calls them little demons.

So, Kevin challenged the crowd to have a clear plan for next week for making progress in their business.  His talk was awesome (and will be available with all the other NAMS presentations on Feb 2).

My goal for next week is to complete the prelaunch opt-in for my next product and send it out to my list.  To do that, I need to finish 3 videos and set up the download page.

You can do this too.  What is your goal for next week? 

Let me know in the comments below.  Tell me your goals for next week and let’s hear how things are going in 7 days…

Try to avoid distractions next week and stay focused.

One of the really cool things that happens at the Niche Affiliate Marketing Seminar is how “hands on” that it is.  As a demonstration, the NAMS instructors actually create a product during the seminar, set up a sales page, and help people promote the product during seminar.

This is an excellent teaching tool.  It shows people just how easy it is to create an information product and put it out there.  It’s the best example that I have seen when you want to teach people to take massive action in conjunction with fundamentals of information product creation and marketing.

Excellent Social Media Product

The product that was created today was a panel discussion about Social Media Marketing Strategy.  Panelists included Willie Crawford, Mark Riley, Joey Smith, Jeff Herring, and Maritza Parra.  They attacked 5 questions for about an hour:

• Is Social Media for real?  How is it changing Internet Marketing?
• How do you drive traffic using Social Media
• Do you still need a list?  How do I use Social Media with my list?
• Why would I want to build an online presence using Social Media?
• Do conversion tactics still work on Social Media?

In addition to that, the moderator, David Perdue asked a simple question:  tell me one of your secret strategies for making money with social media.  That was probably the most exciting part of the panel discussion.

This is a pretty cool product.  When you check out the sales page, realize that the whole thing was created in just a few hours – you’ll be amazed at the quality of the content that can be generated in just a couple of hours. 

Check it out now.

One more thing:  While I was here, I learned about another really cool product called Twitter Glitch.  If you are using twitter in your marketing, you really should have a twitter disaster recovery plan.  I recommend you check that out as well.

Good morning.

Today I am in Atlanta at the Niche Affiliate Marketing System Seminar.  I’ve been spending some time with top internet marketers learning and mapping out my plans for MasonWorld.com.  It’s really exciting to be in the company of the 18 instructors and all the people like me that are here to learn from them.

The tone of this workshop is really cool.  There are two key features that I really like.  First, there is very little pitching here.  In fact, no products are for sale from the back of the room.  A lot of seminars like this are pitch-fests.  But NAMS is different by design (and it’s a great thing).  The instructors are here to teach (not to sell).

Just as an aside, the Niche Affiliate Marketing Seminar Audio is available after the conference if you are interested.    It turns out that you can get all the information presented at a fraction of the registration price.  If you are interested, you should act quickly because 51 people will also get a 2gb flash drive loaded with all of the Niche Affiliate Marketing System 1 and 2 workshop materials and complete audios!

Second, there is great access to all the instructors between sessions.  I’ve already had long conversations with Nicole Dean, Sid Hale, Lynn Terry and Kevin Riley.  At this moment, I am listening to a Lifestyle Design talk from Mark Hendricks.  I had not met Mark before this weekend, but I am blown away by his presentation, and have a 15 minute consulting session scheduled with him on Sunday.  The only weird thing was that he made us sing during his presentation. 

Of course, for me meeting Nicole Dean and Lynn Terry are two of the big highlights from the weekend (that’s Nicole at the left).  It’s been really neat to realize that they are just as cool (and genuine) as they seem.

Last night, a bunch of us from Lynn’s elite forum sat around and talked about internet marketing long after the planned events for the day had ended.  There are a ton of people from Lynn’s Elite forum here. 

More on NAMS later.  Right now this is looking like the most important investment in my business that I have made to date.

Next up later today, the entire conference is creating an info product live at the seminar.  Pretty cool exercise, especially for people who are trying to get started with info products on line.
