OK. I am guilty as charged.

Ok, so I have to admit that I have been a little slack about keeping my blog up to date with useful, valuable content. I apologize for that and hope you will forgive me ; ).

I have been busy helping and bringing on new team members so it’s been a little crazy.

I have also decided that I am only going write when I really feel inspired to.  There is way too much fluff and junk out on the web of people that feel they need to write an article, do a blog post or Press Release just to drive traffic to their offer or whatever.

It feels way to artificial for me and I want no part of it.

I want to write or share things with you when I feel alive and passionate about something, period.

Your Internet Marketing Coach

An Internet Marketing Coach is essential to your success online

Having an Internet marketing coach is like having a paddle on a canoe, you need it.  It will help to shorten the learning curve big time.  When I first got started marketing online, it was like learning another language.  I was lost and overwhelmed.  Coming from the mlm world, I was used to having a coach/up-line who mentored me in every part of my life.

When I dove into the Internet marketing world, it was like I was a little tadpole in a pool of sharks.  I think the biggest lesson I learned is that I was not alone and it was OK to reach out for some help.  Aaron Rashkin is my coach and although I don’t speak to him very often, I have access to him through his websites and blogs which are loaded with all the information or resources I have needed to succeed.

What most people do is become dependent business owners.  They will call their sponsors constantly asking questions that they could simply find answers to.  By studying the top producers in the business and accessing the tools, tips and tricks of the trade, I now have the tools and knowledge to coach others, hence, now I am the Internet marketing coach.

The Astonishing Attitude of Action

Paddling out into huge waves used to be very scary for me as a child. I grew up on Maui, Hawaii and learned to surf on the north shore at a world famous surf spot called Hookipa. I can clearly remember the first time I paddled out to surf on my first surf board. A storm has just blown through the Island and the waves were huge. You could feel the rumble of these waves from the beach

When I think back to that day, I realize that I had less fear than I sometimes do today about doing risky things. Was I scared? Hell yes and for a good reason. I knew people who had drowned, gotten bitten by sharks and stung by portugese man-o-wars (Jellyfish).  Hookipa was no joke, but I was determined to learn to surf.

Anyways, as I paddled out, huge waves that were over 20 ft. high . My arms were burning, I was out of breath and my adrenaline was pumping. I knew I had to get out past the break if I was going to #1 catch one of these waves and #2 survive. If you drop into one of these waves and are not fully commited, there is no bailing out, its called wiping out and that is no fun.  You go over the falls on one of these babies and it will hold you under for sometimes 20 seconds.  You get tossed and turned, sometimes slamming into jagged coral and run the risk of your surfboard fin running into your body.  Your attached to it by a leash on your ankle.

SEO and Content Syndication: Debunking The Duplicate Content Myth

Recently a consulting client of mine asked me if I agreed with a colleague of his about Google disliking duplicate content and to reduce or refrain the amount of content he syndicates (distributes) on the Web.

I think there’s a huge misunderstanding out there about how to distribute your content without hurting your website in the eyes of search engines.

If you publish content, you should have the first, original content on your website. No doubt. However, you can “repurpose” it and strategically distribute it on the Web, and this will not hurt your search engine/Google SEO efforts.

This is something I refer to in my SONAR Content Distribution Model TM and has helped my clients’ quantifiably increase traffic rank, traffic visits, leads and sales.

SONAR is a cost effective, yet powerful, method of repurposing and synchronizing content (albeit text, audio, video) distribution into various, targeted channels. And it allows companies, publishers, entrepreneurs … basically anyone with content on their website … the ability to ultimately turn traffic into sales.

Successful People do it anyways

Some mornings I wake up and I dont want to go to the gym and I just want to sleep in.  Over the years, I have learned that if I compromise on one area in my life, I will do it in others so I force myself to do the things I dont want to do.

You see, that is the difference between someone who is going to achieve their goals and someone who just thinks about achieving their goals.  There have been times that I have rolled back over in the early AM.  I can never go back to sleep because I am thinking about what I am supposed to be doing.  I end up getting up and getting the job done.

I roll that over into my business.  There are many days and nights in which it would be easier to just watch TV or go out on the town.  I know, however, that if I dont do the deal every day, I will get complaisant.  That is not a place I ever want to be. I am either growing or dying and I always want to be growing.

I have noticed that people come up with all kinds of excuses as to why they are in the position they are in.  I dont buy any of them.  I know what it is like to struggle.  I also know what it is like to win.
