It’s time for the next event in our free PowerStart Webinars series, this time Video Marketing TODAY! with the ‘King of Camtasia’ Lon Naylor. It’s another live online webcast, this time at 8pm Eastern on Tuesday, June 8th. Attendance is limited to the first 1,000 people though, so be sure to register now…

Just glancing around this blog you’ll see I’m no stranger to creating videos or to using videos for marketing online. But what you may not know is I’m also a professional glamor videographer and the author of such e-books as “It’s You… Live!“, a guide to podcasting and vlogging (video blogging) and “Creating Your Own Videos“, a guide to creating your own video products to market online. I’m also the creator of various video tutorials such as “Converting PLR Videos” and the “PLR Tutorial” training videos. So to say I’m comfortable with my video skills is an understatement…

I don’t say all that to brag, but so that you know I’m a video expert and that when I say Lon Naylor is the ‘King of Camtasia’ I’m definitely qualified to make that evaluation of Lon’s skills. Teri & I met with Lon at JVAlert in Philadelphia last month, and then after my speech there we all went to dinner to further discuss Internet marketing and affiliate marketing in general and using videos in particular. I was sufficiently impressed with Lon’s knowledge on the subject that I instantly asked him to present one of our PowerStart Webinars events on the topics of creating videos and using videos for online marketing and he agreed to creating a video tutorial webcast for you – the webinar tomorrow night is the result of that meeting.

About Lon Naylor…

Amongst his other activities online, Lon is the owner and operator of the Learn Camtasia blog and video training facility. While most marketers haven’t even upgraded to Camtasia 7 yet, Lon already has a coaching program for it! Lon regularly teaches marketers and product creators how to leverage screen capture videos (like those made with Camtasia) for maximum marketing effect.

A 30-year veteran of the computer industry, Lon spent the last 10 years of his professional career during the decade of the 90’s as a senior engineer at Microsoft before ‘retiring’ in 1999 at age 41. There he specialized in high-level multimedia presentations where it was not uncommon for millions of dollars in revenue to be at stake.

His ability to take highly technical concepts and break them down into simple, easy to understand presentations and tutorials is a result of the years of experience gained in his long career working with companies like Honeywell, American Express, and the national labs at Sandia and Los Alamos.

As an extremely early adopter and evangelist of the Internet, he has long recognized and exploited its massive potential for delivering effective sales messages via video to a global audience.

As an authority on the Camtasia suite of video production software, he is a highly sought out resource and the ‘Camtasia go-to guy’ of many of the top internet marketing names such as myself, Willie Crawford, Ken McCarthy, Bob ‘The Teacher’ Jenkins, and many more.

Lon is on a mission to “Rid the world of lousy marketing videos” as he puts it, and carries on this effort from his rural Wisconsin home on the Apple River enjoying trout fishing from his backyard, kayaking, and recording music in his recording studio. But his greatest passion remains in creating effective marketing videos and teaching others to do the same.

About the Webcast…

Video Marketing Today will be an hour or so of solid content – content you can put to use right now in your marketing and/or product creation efforts. Creating videos and using videos effectively will be just a part of the story, as Lon has promised to reveal secrets like the 3 common video marketing myths, the 5 common things you must NOT do with video and the 5 things you should be doing RIGHT NOW when creating videos and using videos in your marketing mix.

While we always hope to make these PowerStart Webinars recordings available to you after the event, we’re all all too familiar with the glitches that can crop up online, so I can’t guarantee the replay will be available – best be online at the webcast to be sure you don’t miss this powerful tutorial broadcast. At the end of the call both Lon & I will be available live to answer any questions you have about creating videos, using video promotions and creating video products, so you’ll want to be there during the live event anyway.

But as I said at the outset, the webinar broadcasting service only makes bandwidth available for the first 1,000 attendees, so be sure to register now and then arrive a few minutes early tomorrow night! Pay attention, take notes, ask your questions and you could be creating videos and using videos online like a true pro in no time – See you on the webcast!

You’re reading this online marketing blog, so obviously you’re into Internet marketing, affiliate marketing or both – or you’re doing your research, looking to get into the biz, right? So tell me – what do you find is the best way for YOU to learn about the online marketing trends, about what’s working now and where the industry is headed?

For example, are you attending the live Internet marketing events? I love speaking at live marketing events because I can talk one-to-one with a lot of our online family and give them advice on the spot that’s specific to their biz. Teri & I got to know a lot of newer marketers at Mark Hendricks’ Internet Marketing Super Stars Conference (ISSC) in Orlando this past January, so I’m really pleased to be speaking there again next January!

I’ll also be speaking at Ken McArthur’s JVAlert Live (JVAL) in Philadelphia two weeks from today and at David Perdew’s Niche Affiliate Marketing Seminar (NAMS) this coming August. If you’re going to be at either, or even in that area while the conferences and seminars are on, please don’t hesitate to come up and introduce yourself – Teri & I only bite those who enjoy it! Seriously though, we’d love to offer some advice, so DO be sure to meet us there, ok?

But because we realize not everyone can currently afford to get to these events or may live somewhere that makes it hard to get to the States, we also have launched our intensive PowerStart Marketing coaching classes for people to access online. These are designed for marketers ranging from complete newbies to those who are doing ok with their online business but want to do a lot better – in a nutshell, anyone not already making 6 figures a year online but willing to take massive action to get to that point.

Which course is best for YOU depends on your current focus and how quickly you want to establish your business… Our Internet Marketing coaching program is a 4-week intensive hands-on crash course – you’ll probably learn more in those 4 weeks than you have in the past 2 or 3 years, but it’s a LOT of effort – you’ll need to put in at least 20 hours a week on your biz during the course. For those who do put in the effort, though – well, just check out the video testimonials from our alumni. (What makes them more impressive is most of them didn’t know how to do online video before the course!)

If, on the other hand, 20 hours per week is a bit too much for you right now or you’re more interested in affiliate marketing rather than creating your own products, you may want to start with our 8-week Affiliate Marketing Coaching Program. You still learn how to build your lists, drive traffic, create podcasts & videos and the whole 9 yards but the focus is on promoting products and services as an affiliate as opposed to your own products…

Both courses utilize live webinars with extensive step-by-step how-to training videos created just for the coaching programs and not available anywhere else. The Internet Marketing coaching starts the first Monday of each month while the Affiliate Marketing coaching starts the first Wednesday of every other month, so follow the links above for more info on the course that’s right for you and your business right now.

But live in person or live online, I look forward to guiding you as you take your online business to the next level through your own Internet marketing and/or affiliate marketing success… See you then!

Affiliate Silver Bullet (ASB) launches at noon Eastern on Thursday, April 29th, 2010 – about 14 hours from now as I write this post. And it really couldn’t come at a better time for the affiliate marketing world…

Affiliate marketing, and Internet marketing in general have both changed majorly as a result of the global recession. While there is still plenty of money to be made with online marketing, it definitely takes more time and effort to truly succeed online compared to just a couple of years ago.

In my own case, the month between my last post and this one is by FAR the longest break in my blogging since 2004. But don’t take that as a sign I’ve been idle – after speaking at Mark Hendricks’ Internet Super Stars Conference in Orlando Florida in January we launch our PowerStart Internet Marketing coaching program in February and our Affiliate Marketing PowerStart coaching program at the start of April. So not only am I tied up on coaching calls every Monday & Wednesday night, but the Internet marketing coaching program alone required the time for me to create over 1.5 GIGS of training videos to supplement the webinars!

Then, as you saw in the last post we were heavily involved in pushing the Tweet Traffic Rush launch last month and this month the pre-launch for tomorrow’s Affiliate Silver Bullet opening.

And May looks no less hectic – including a new launch from Jeff Dedrick and a quick trip to Philadelphia where I’ll be speaking at Ken McArthur’s JVAlert Live! seminar, which runs May 14th to 16th.

So why do I say this launch comes when needed most? Because a service like Affiliate Silver Bullet is one more opportunity to add additional income streams where most of the work is already done for you…

Like myself, many of this blog’s community jumped all over ClickBank Pirate when Cindy and Soren launched it last year, and I’m pleased to say it made me money both during the launch and every single month since then. If you missed it, CB Pirate is a service that creates a new site for you to promote each month with a video squeeze page and free report to give away. Once a prospect downloads the report they’re placed in an autoresponder series that promotes one ClickBank product in the same niche as they’re free report. So literally all you do is drive traffic to your squeeze page each month and their pre-made system takes over from there to make the sale for you.

Affiliate Silver Bullet is much the same, but with one major difference. If there was any flaw in the CB Pirate service it was that you don’t own the list it generates – since people opt in to the system’s autoresponder, the list stays there, not under your control. That’s great for selling that product, but you then don’t have access to them to sell additional products, promote your own sites, etc.

Bearing that in mind, Cindy & Soren have addressed that issue in this new launch… With the sites from Affiliate Silver Bullet you have your choice of leaving it all hosted and automated by them, or downloading the materials and putting hem on your own site, thus using YOUR autoresponders and leaving the resulting list in YOUR control!

At least in my humble opinion, I now have the best of both worlds – when I’m really busy elsewhere I can just leave things as they are and simply drive traffic to my CB Pirate and ASB squeeze pages each month, and when I have more time can set up a month’s ASB package on one or more of my 150+ websites and use it as a lead generator as well as a profit center.

If it goes as I expect it will, this will be one more tool in my affiliate marketing arsenal that brings in long-term results – check out www.Affiliate-Silver-Bullets.com yourself right now and see if it can be a big help to your efforts too!

Here’s a quick video I created for you that shows how to use Affiliate Marketing Programs to build traffic and build Opt-In Lists:

As you know, the ability to build traffic and build opt-in lists at will is the secret to successful marketing online, so don’t miss ANY opportunity that’s this powerful – be sure to get your own affiliate marketing program up and running as soon as you put your first product online. If you don’t have a professional affiliate program yet, you can get one cheap – it’s part of the package from Hosting4Marketers.com and I can highly recommend it, since I’ve been using their affiliate marketing program for years now for all of our products!

For more ideas on how to build targeted traffic and opt-in lists you can download my free report, or learn more about it in depth as part of my PowerStart Marketing Internet Marketing Coaching Program.

But no matter what methods you prefer to learn from, be sure to learn everything you can about how to build traffic and how to build opt-in lists as quickly as you can – the success of your Internet marketing, affiliate marketing or any other online work-at-home business depends on it!

4-Week Ultra-High-Intensity Internet Marketing Coaching Review

Earlier this month PowerStart Marketing launched their PowerStart 2010 Internet marketing coaching program amid great fanfare to great response. Kicked off by Internet Marketing mentor Doug Champigny in his speech at the Internet Super Stars Conference in Orlando, Florida, PowerStart 2010 is an ultra-high-intensity 4-week Internet marketing coaching program that puts new and seasoned marketers alike through the necessary steps to create & promote an entirely new online business in just four weeks.

This swiftly-paced course has “trimmed the fat to the bone” according to Champigny, and “focuses the students just on those strategies and techniques that lead to immediate progress in their online work-at-home business.” Coaching students start with keyword research and then install a blog on a keyword-driven domain, write and post several articles to their blog, create a report to use as an incentive to entice optins & place it online behind a squeeze page, process a master resell rights product and put it online, convert a PLR product to their own unique offering and put it online, create articles, podcasts and videos and get them distributed through the various directories to drive traffic to their blog, products and squeeze pages and then learn the ins-and-outs of affiliate marketing in today’s economic climate.

“This course isn’t for the casual marketer – or the feint-of-heart” Champigny chuckles. “It’s for people who seriously want to be successful Internet marketers, most of whom have been trying for some time and have already spent untold thousands trying to make it on their own. PowerStart 2010 is the ultimate answer to people tired of being jerked around by those with a big image and no substance to back it up – our results will speak for themselves!”

And already positive feedback is pouring in from those enrolled in the program… Lawrence J. Parsley is one of those people who has spent a few years and tens of thousands of dollars in his quest to become a successful Internet marketer, and here’s his video review of the PowerStart 2010 coaching course so far…

For more information on the PowerStart 2010 program, see the Internet marketing coaching program site at http://www.PowerStart2010.com – new classes start the first Monday night of each month.
