* Catch Up

I’m told that Mothers day is on different dates this month depending on where in the world you live?
Our’s is on Sunday 14th in the UK
(I’m just had an email telling me the USA Mothers day isn’t til May??)

But just to be sure I don’t miss anyone – here is a poem I wrote that you might like to copy in a card for your Mothers.
(I know it’s not marketing related – but hey.. A Mother is important regardless of what we do or how!)

Mother

My life has not been easy,
…….Tho’ some folks really have it rough,
On the whole I can’t complain,
…….Even if some times have been tough,
There has always been someone there for me,
…….Through the good times and the bad,
Helping me enjoy the happy times,
…….And not dwell on the sad,
Ever loving, loyal and true,
…….Steadfast and faithful like no other,
Rarely complaining of Her sacrifices,
…….Just being my unique – and wonderful Mother.

Be sure to use a coloured pen to write the 1st letter of the lines that spell out Mother down the page.
And I hope your Mom likes it

–
Speaking of Mothers Day, Tony Sunderland has sent me a pdf of ‘Mother Quotes’ that you might like to read to use some for your Mum’s cards etc.
It’s a free download - just click here to open it in a new window.

I’ll also have some Poems for My Dad to add as well, as he died on the 9th 6years ago.   (now added below this post)

Bugga – here come the tears, I hate it when that happens without warning… guess I’ll go make a cuppa, stare at a picture for a while and then come back to this shortly.

I’m adding Dad’s poems before this post – so do scroll down to the previous post if you’d like a read

Ok – on with the content (just as well this isn’t a live thing or you’d have been waiting a while then!)

This week I wasted a lot of hours trying to figure out why some people kept telling me my links didn’t work?

It appeared as though some – but not all, of my sites were down!
Which would be difficult as they are all on a dedicated server, so they should ALL have been down or all up!

It turns out it was an issue with the isp I was connecting with, and it would seem anyone who connected with the same company had these issues??

My host recommended I get a free account with OpenDNS and add their IP addresses to my router.
Which I did – but what a scary techy job that was!!

So much so I’m, not going to even try and explain it!
But basically – it meant I could access my sites, and so could Rachel and another friend after we did the same with their router set up, But no one else who was going through the same isp could unless they followed the procedure…

What a nightmare I hope no one on my lists ever suffers!

I believe the isp has now corrected the issue – but I’m not sure. So if you get any broken links do let me know,and I’ll email an alternate link to you.
(sidenote – it seems it’s not fixed so I’ve used alternate links in this post)

That lot basically stopped me from getting much else done, Along with the family days out and reading a couple of new products I’ll mention below.

I’ve also wasted a few hours grabbing the instant video article  software I mentioned and trying it out. I wanted to give a demonstration of it after having it recommended to me and it looking so easy….

Unfortunately – as with all things techy…
I managed to break it I think – so I’m awaiting a support ticket reply from the creators!
(I also note they have responded to a few queries on the warrior forum – so hopefully I’ll get a reply soon, and they’ll have it all working for me)

That said my friend Ian Traynor managed it perfectly ??
Here’s his demo

So feel free to try it here:

You can always submit a ticket if you break it like me, Or get a refund if it’s not for you
But for now I’ll get back to mentioning the products I’ve been looking at – see below and I hope they are useful

OH -and I must give Keith another mention.. He’s really taken action and is posting some great content on his blog
http://www.keithpurkiss.com/blog/
And so is Kathy Dobson for that matter.

* 20 Ways To Make Money Now!

This is one I got a review copy of because I know one of the Authors (Stuart Turnbull)

He and Jim Cockrum (who I have heard of and respect but don’t actually know him, know him) have just released this as a joint authored product:

http://randysmith.co.uk/likes/20Ways

For nearly 10 years Jim Cockrum has been experimenting with (and watching others experiment with) easily over three hundred different ways to make money online.
He’s finally compiled his top 20 list of favorites ideas.

He’s gone through the archives of his online experiences since the year 2000 and has come up with the best ideas that have worked for the most people and has broken them down into simple, usable strategies.
This new book delivers 20 proven money making ideas that really work.

http://randysmith.co.uk/likes/20Ways

What I liked about it is that they have grabbed the best ideas that made the most ca$h from some well respected marketers, and basically got permission to rip them off and stick them all in one book…lol
So there is a huge potential saving there on it’s own…
See what you think!

* Squeeze Pages Uncut – MORE than just Squeeze pages!

If you are building an email list you need these

http://randysmith.co.uk/recommends/SqueezeUncut

If you’re not building an email list then I suggest you stop everything and begin to build one RIGHT NOW using these professional designs…

That’s the hypey bit done with…lol
Yes – this is another product I mentioned I’ve been looking at this week.

Fact – you do need good squeeze pages, and this product gives you the templates to create your own.
BUT
What I really like is that Sonia & Angela (2 sisters I’ve met a few times *Strictly networking*) have gone far further than just giving their highly converting Squeeze page templates…
They include two pdf’s explaining the process of using them and also include confirmation and oto pages too.

Then as an added bonus there are videos and even extra products suggesting how to construct your Autoresponder series to guarantee you are building relationships and not just a list of freebie seekers!

It’s one of those rare finds where they really over deliver on everything – so I do recommend checking the salespage to see what’s included.
And when you do – if it’s a product you think can help you, rest assured I have read through it and recommend it!

http://randysmith.co.uk/recommends/SqueezeUncut

As always – let me know what you think

* 1 Year Old – UFA, Discount til Friday

If you have a blog like me, you’ll know that one of the biggest challenges we face is getting repeat traffic.
A great way to do that of course is by building a mailing list of opt-in subscribers.

The problem is how to capture your visitor’s details without alienating them with a huge great hover popin or such like.
Well my solution was adding the Ultimate Footer Ad a year ago…
Ultimate Footer Ad that slides a small strip up from the bottom of your browser.

You can use it to capture email subscribers, aswell as convert visitors to rss subscribers or twitter followers.
It does it all…
What it doesn’t do is annoy your visitors by stopping them from reading your valuable content.
The feedback on this software has been amazing:
John Chow describes it as…
- “One of the best promotional tools I have ever used.”

And Legendary marketer Terry Dean had this to say…
- “I’ve added 126 extra new subscribers to my list just in the past week.”

Not only that, it’s dead simple to use and you can install it on unlimited domains!
You can literally have this thing installed and running on your website in 10 minutes.

And here’s the best bit…
If you click through my link now, you’ll be able to grab yourself a $10 discount off the regular price of $47.
But this discount is only available for the next few days so don’t hang about if you want in.

Ultimate Footer Ad
(Please note the salespage will say $47 but it will change to $37 when you order)

Another reminder – be sure to tell your Mother that she’s loved and respected (and not just for Mothers day)
And more so – be grateful if she’s still around for you to let her know!

I’m very grateful I have my Mum and my step Mum still around (I always used to tell my parents off after their divorce if they started ‘calling each other’. In time they did accept that family is family no matter how extended they are these days!)

People who care, are always people who care!

****As ever – only spend your ca$h on things that WILL help you
(Not the stuff that Might One Day!)****

Til next time
To You and Yours,

Here’s hoping you’re
Loving Life, Living it with Passion, And Passing it on!

Warm Regards
