Secret Society of Traffic & Conversion

Yikes! I just listed this Seminar and this is what I learned today..

The Secret Society of Traffic Conversion is NOW SOLD OUT!

We want to personally thank everyone for their interest in
The Secret Society Of Traffic Conversion!

If you'd like to be notified in case someone cancels, enter your first
name and email. We will contact those on the waiting list on a first

Secret Society of Traffic & Conversion
January 18-20, 2008
Orlando, FL

Your Host (if you get to go) is: Buck Rizvi

Seems it was sold out on December 13th, 2007!!

This is why I need to get you the information sooner!

I added a poll to the right side. Seems I need to let you know about these BEFORE they get to the Sold Out phase as well as in time for you to plan!!

I'm creating a form for you to sign up for emails about the LIVE! Internet Marketing Seminars.

I list them here about 2-3 weeks out generally. That isn't always enough time for everyone.

I want to send you a lot more information about them too!

This is why I need to figure out my aweber thingy and get that code into my blog.

I'll do what I can here. I may need a lot of help for THIS task!

Maybe tonight will be a good night for it. We were invited to a party (it's New Year's Eve after all) and decided, instead, to have our OWN party. Well, looks like only 3 other people will be here and they are my boyfriends gaming buddies.

I think I'll let them do a 'boys night out' kind of thingy and get some work done.

If You Go, Let Me Know!

Internet Marketing & Website Makeover Workshop

Here's the 'next' Internet Marketing Seminar on your list...

Internet Marketing & Website Makeover Workshop
January 16, 2008
Ontario, Canada

I learned about it after I had some January Seminars listed here for you. Remember when I talked about the google alert service?

It brought THIS to me! I had no idea this group existed. There's a whole network of these Seminars so Stay Tuned for a WSI Seminar near you!

2008 Success Workshop

Bob Jenkins just finished a series of calls he started in his "Solstice Sale" and finished with 2008 Success Workshop.

63 of us were in attendance at various times.

3 days, 3 calls a day.

A couple of short term forums (20 days!) and folks to network with.

All the makings of a great learning experience.

Bob made audio and video of all the calls and may make the Workshop available to others in the future.

I'll come back, when I've gathered my wits again, and tell you more!

If You Go, Let Me Know!

The Week Ahead: December 30th thru January 5th

As we transition to a new year, There are no Seminar opportunities for 'The Week Ahead.'

Maybe this is a hint to someone out there.

I've been on the calls with Bob Jenkins, who conducted the last LIVE! Seminar of the year, that I know of, and I learned a lot.

I'll be relating some of that to you as well.

Stay tuned for more Seminars coming in January!

Pam Hoffman

Back To Work!

Well, it's back to work for me and I'll be listing Seminars again and visiting the Entrecard site.

What a trip. Have you seen EC? They built a site for all the cards.

We're throwing a party for New Year's Eve so I may slow down briefly again before the end of 2007.

Here's to the New Year. Make it your best yet!

Pam Hoffman

Happy Holidays!

Season's Greetings. Thank you for all your help and support during the last 8 months.

I've learned so much and met so many wonderful folks, all of whom have enriched my life tremendously.

I hope all your holidays are happy and safe - make it so!

I'll be back soon to let you know about the next Seminar up on your Seminarlist.

Let abundance into your life as we approach a new year and make it rock for yourself!

Until next time,

Pam Hoffman

The EntreCard Results Are In For The johnchow.com Ad!

Ok, my ad is finished running on johnchow.com and I got a total of 60 clicks from there, according to the EC statistics area.

The view from google analytics, if what I'm seeing is in fact the 'source of traffic,' looks kind of weird and the number seems a little different. More like 48-49. Then about 17 from the johnchow.com site itself for that day.

I'm still very pleased because my blog was averaging 5-6 visits a day only a few weeks ago.

On Friday, 12/21 google analytics indicates a jump to 79 visits!

THAT is what they call "The John Chow Effect" as it creates a spike for another site.

I was pleasantly surprised at the 'bounce' rate as well. It was only 77.xx% for that day. My average is much higher some days.

So, did I experience the "John Chow effect" for my blog that day?? Oh Yeah!

I expect I'll go back into Entrecard and watch for my opportunity to run my ad on johnchow.com again.

Since I saw such good numbers early on for that Friday, I decided to set up a bunch more ads for the holidays. I think it has paid off very well.

I still have a few left to run. I got a lot of them from the blogs they list on their 'least wait' list (or whatever they call it). Some went right away, after approval and some will go in the next couple of days.

I have noticed a general trend in holiday traffic. It seems to be very good for my blog.

What about you?

Pam Hoffman

An Amazing Service!

I just learned about 'google alerts' and I have Jeff Gardner to thank for that!

I set it up to help me find you more Internet Marketing Seminars; and I found them!!

In fact, I found a whole FRANCHISE with over 2000 members. Ever heard of WSI?

"We Simplify the Internet" - a service offering, amongst other things, Seminars!

I was up late a couple of nights ago, filled out a 'squeeze' form and the next morning, I got a call from Gregg Towsley!

He told me about the 2000 members (the Seminar i found was his) and I started looking. Oh yeah, there's more coming up too! 2008 is looking good for folks out there looking to get something going online.

If you keep coming back, you'll get to hear about them all. If you know about any, (and they aren't already in my database!) I'll make it a point to write you into my posts with a link to the site of your choice.

Thank you Jeff Gardner, that's an AMAZING service!

Million Dollar Marketing Makeovers

Eben Pagan is doing a follow up to his Altitude Seminar late in 2007. I think this is it. I'm not sure where though, I've been looking around for it and I haven't seen a location yet.

Million Dollar Marketing Makeovers
January 17, 2008

It looks like you got a lot for your USD10K - they've been on a phone call every month and this follow up Seminar is just a few months after the main Seminar last October.

The Week Ahead: December 23rd thru 29th

Here we are, facing the last full week of 2007. Let's see now, what's on our list still...

Bob Jenkins just annouced his Solstice Sale which is becoming a series of LIVE phone calls where Bob trains us to set up an Internet Marketing business and make it work. I just signed up, I couldn't resist!

Solstice Sale Seminar

The Coveted Entrecard Ad!

I AM THERE!

Internet Marketing Seminar Listing Service by Pam Hoffman landed a spot on the coveted johnchow.com site!

How? you ask?

I watched, ever so closely, the John Chow ad on Entrecard for a few days, back when the site was 'new' (ok, it was about a week and a half ago!). I clicked and clicked and clicked so I would have enough credits and...

I struck, when the time was right - John had an opening and I had the required credits.

This is my first ad thru Entrecard - I have two more running on 12/22 and I realized that I'm getting pretty close to the holidays and that I probably should just bank credits for awhile until the new year comes around.

My buddy Kevin Davis will be one of my hosts on Saturday.

Now, the Friday before Christmas could be a good day to run my ad on johnchow.com or it could be a rotten day to run my ad on johnchow.com.

What do you think?

Will people take the day off, chill at home in front of their computers? or will they go out and mingle, party and generally get ready for the holidays? For me, and my ad on the coveted site, time will tell.

I got a 'screen shot' of my ad on johnchow.com. Does anyone remember them? I'm wondering if I can get it on here for you...

Well, it wasn't working with a 'paste' (aka ctrl+v) so I'll have to go and learn how to do that for you. If there is any way I can get that, I'll add it in here...

And I'll...

Let You Know

... how it goes with visits.

Entrecard has already increased my average daily visits by about 33% according to google analytics. That's pretty darn impressive! I wonder if google will buy them out down the road. That's sheer speculation on my part!

Later today, "The Week Ahead" and the LAST Seminar of the year!

All I Want For Christmas!!

"All I Want For Christmas is my..." Affiliate Incubator Recordings!!!

Did you ever pre-order a recording of a Seminar?

I went to Affiliate Incubator in October and when I was ordering, they (very smartly) included a pre-order offer of the recording of the Seminar for an extra $97.

So I ordered!!

I had a couple of reasons for ordering. I wanted to recap anything I missed (i missed Ewan Chan's whole part 1!). It was a better deal for my partner Jeff than actually bringing him, and I wanted to go thru the whole thing over again to remember and act upon. The Seminar was really great!

I've been looking for the recording in the mail ever since.

I even wrote them recently. I'm still waiting for a response.

Perhaps I didn't write to the proper place. I just realized - there IS somewhere ELSE I can request more information! This article is already paying off! Thank You!

Am I just impatient or is 9 1/2 weeks excessive? I really didn't think it would take this long to get my order filled. The product was essentially "ready" by the time the Seminar was over. I've ordered AND RECIEVED Seminar recordings AT THE SEMINAR in the past. That was in 1989. Technology must be better now, don't you think?

Has anyone received their AI recordings? Got any ideas how to find out when they are coming?

I REALLY thought this set of recordings would be here before this - now, it's All I Want For Christmas!!

I hope I get them by then.

I'll let you know what happens, sorry for the 'rant' - it won't happen TOO often! ;)

Holiday Break

"All Work and No Play Makes Jack a Dull Boy" --Jack Nickelson "The Shining"

Took a break from the action to go see this. I've never seen anything like it!











Metrolink in the Los Angeles, CA area rolled into our local train station, 50,000 lights, a brief show and toy drive sponsored by our local Firefighters.

Lots of kids, Girlscouts with homemade cookies and hot cocoa, all good holiday fare.

It was a wonderful sight and I really loved it.

What are doing for a break this holiday?

Let Me Know,

Success Symposium - This Seminar Can't Wait!

Coming in February - This Seminar Can't Wait! They are selling tickets right now and should be sold out LONG before it arrives.

Achievers from all over North America (and the world) are gathering for The Success Symposium

***AND***

The historic launch of the all-new SUCCESS magazine

A little bit of background (in case you care):

You see, SUCCESS magazine was first established in 1891 by Orison Swett Marden as a personal development magazine. Through the years, the publication was led by several renowned personal-development authors and editors, including Napoleon Hill, W. Clement Stone and Og Mandino.

The all-new SUCCESS magazine will return to its roots as the premier personal development title - what achievers read! It'll be the foremost trusted source for success resources. HISTORIC!

So, this launch will be big! And we've teamed with the publisher of Success Magazine to develop a day-long success-focused event that will have a potentially life-changing effect on you.

And here's why I'm telling you now (since I just heard about it) instead of waiting until February..

We have very limited seating and this may sell out within a few days (plus the bonus VIP upgrade will be gone within hours).

So, If You Go, Let Me Know!

Novel Holiday Idea

Looking for a holiday gift that will really blow someone away? What about a Seminar?

Start 2008 right for you or someone you love. Sign up for an Internet Marketing Seminar!

Some of them offer you a deal - buy one, get one free! You AND a friend could go to some of these.

Others, like eComXpo, are offered at no charge. Then there are the ones offered at very low cost and move around so you might find them within driving distance. eBay LIVE! works that way.

Just look at the ones listed on the right under "Go To Seminars" - there's something for everyone on your list!

I think January is going to get off to a good start too! There are several things which you might be interested in. Some of these are first time Seminars so you can get the producers fresh.

January brings the first Product Development Lab, some of whom I met at Affiliate Incubator. SES has offerings right off the bat. Eben Pagan may do another Altitude in January.

I've got 10 different Internet Marketing Seminars in my database lined up for January. Some I just found and some I need to verify.

I'll be listing them very soon so that you can prepare for January.

And if you need a really awesome gift for someone this year, visit the listed Seminars.

If You Go, Let Me Know!

I Read Your Blog Too!

WOW!

You'd think that the end of the year would be a good time to slow down the Internet Marketing gig and spend time with family and friends.

Not the IM'ers I've been watching.

Even though the BlogRush widget is everywhere, I'm still getting people signed up thru my blog! I'm seeing some DARN GOOD titles on the widget too!!!

AND I'm reading them! The posts are outstanding. There are a bunch of really great bloggers out there. I'm stunned.

There is one thing I'm wondering - how in the heck do I get back to these blogs again later? If the content is good, I wanna go back!

Oh, yeah, I could 'bookmark' it. That is only good for awhile. For me anyway. I just stop looking at them and I don't actually remember why I went there from that either.

Oh, I could set up a record in my OutLook (which i do quite frequently) yet, there are just some blogs that don't get that kind of attention from me yet.

How about something on BlogRush itself?

Hey John! What about it?

Then, there's this new EntreCard (EC for short) thing. Have you seen it yet? I think you might like it.

It's a bit confusing at first. I finally figured it out and now, it's pretty much my latest addiction. Thanks Patrice for turning me onto it! I really like it and I'm letting other people know about it too.

Yeah, there's good chance I Read Your Blog Too! with all this going on. I keep visiting them. I keep reading them. Some are really funny. Do some digging, I think you'll find something you like too.

Me, I'm gearing up this month too. I spent most of November in Ohio which slowed me down a little. Hey, I was helping my mom!

I'll work in holiday stuff a little later on this month. I'm not as busy as I remember in year's past so Stay Tuned! I'm setting up the next Seminars for you and it's looking better and better!

Best,

Pam Hoffman

The Week Ahead: December 9th Thru 15th

The Week Ahead...

IS AVAILABLE!

If you are considering producing an Internet Marketing Seminar, this might be a good week to look at.

Time will tell as I find these Seminars and get them more and more organized. That reminds me, I have some other projects to work on for you. This might be a good time to do a little more on them.

I think there is still at least ONE Internet Marketing Seminar on the list for this year.

I'll be starting up the January Seminars soon and I see that there are some interesting things going on out there for 2008...

BTW, I'm ALWAYS open to input. If you know of a LIVE! Internet Marketing Seminar going on anywhere in the world or if you are PRODUCING a LIVE! Internet Marketing Seminar, do let me know.

I'm open to interviews as well.

I'm thinking about something else too. If you are producing an Internet Marketing Seminar somewhere in the world, I'd like to talk with you about that. I'm wondering about your motivation primarily.

I once helped run a whole bunch of Seminars including National Space Society's 14th International Space Development Conference and I gotta tell you, they are a lot of work!

How are Internet Marketing Seminars different? Can you really make a profit? Do the hotels still work the way they did for us?

I can see that being of possible benefit to some of you.

What do you think? Would you like to hear what it's like from THAT side of things? Would it help with your Internet Marketing work online?

Drop by and leave me a note, I'm ready and willing to hear what YOU have to say about all this.

Until next time,

Pam Hoffman

EntreCard: An Ongoing Internet Marketing Seminar?

In my opinion, an 'Internet Marketing Seminar' should be a concentrated, beneficial event in your life that helps you get a step (or 10!) up on your internet marketing work.

I think I've been going to a 'Seminar' the last few days with my EntreCard experience. I mean this in a good way - the BEST way!

I had the most visits to my SeminarList blog EVER yesterday! This is just the beginning, I perceive.

I wrote about EntreCard the first time here: I Read Your Blog Too! since I have read more and more blogs due to EntreCard and BlogRush - especially EntreCard!

And I've seen an incredible amount of sites, the flavor of the authors and the lessons from them I can learn.

And I'll be sure to go back for more!

Not only has EC (EntreCard) been beneficial for the added traffic, the exposure and the sites I can go to, I have a chance to 'meet' people all over the world and establish friendships based on something truly terrific - our shared blogging experience.

Thank You EntreCard!

Pam Hoffman

"A great yogi is anyone who has achieved the permanent state of enlightened bliss. A guru is a great yogi who can actually pass that state on to others. The word guru is composed of two sanskrit syllables. The first means 'Darkness,' the second means 'Light.' Out of the Darkness and into the Light. What passes from the master into the disciple is something called mantravirya: 'The potency of the enlightened conciousness.' You come to your guru, then, not only to receive lessons, as from any teacher, but to actually recieve the guru's state of grace."
-Elizabeth Gilbert from "Eat, Pray, Love"
