Introduction to E-Commerce

I've been seeing a trend lately.

Where Internet Marketing Seminars were once ruled over by the 'gurus' it seems that now, they are trickling down into regular college/university venues. It's an interesting sign - and it's going to get busy for me!

If YOU hear about a Seminar - in any setting - go ahead and write up your finding in the latest post. This will do a couple of things for you. You get to 'go public' with that information with a chance for someone to follow you back to YOUR site.

-AND-

If you are my 'source' of information, when I post that Seminar in the regular List, I'll be sure to mention you as the one who found the Seminar for me and I'll add a clickable link to your site for you.

Deal?

Here we go...

Affiliate Summit West Interview: JoeTech

Thru the Entrecard system, I've had the priviledge and opportunity to 'rub shoulders' with some great bloggers.

When I learned that JoeTech went to Affiliate Summit West in Las Vegas last month, I asked him right away if I could have an interview.

JoeTech was very gracious and said to send my questions over. I'm so please to bring you information directly from a regular 'joe' about the most recent Affiliate Summit event so here we go...

I asked: Hello Joe Tech, how are you?

Joe Said: I'm still getting caught up on my email and Entrecard messages after my laptop took a turn for the worse in Vegas, but it's all better now, so I'm getting back on track.

Pam: Thank you for your time today, I wanted to know more about your experience at Affiliate Summit West, what did you like about the Seminar? Dislike?

JoeTech: I have a long list of things I liked about it. I noted some of them in my blog posts, but in short, I enjoyed the amount of detailed information I obtained from the people who are actually making tons of money with affiliate marketing. In the forums, the attendees are encouraged to ask questions, so the amount of learning to be had is really up to you. There were invaluable opportunities to make new contacts.

I think the only thing I really disliked about the event was that it ran Sunday through Tuesday. For those of us who still have day jobs, this means two days off work. Affiliate Summit East is in Boston in August and it's the same thing, Sunday through Tuesday. If anything keeps me away from Boston, that'll be it.

Pam: Was this your first Internet Marketing Seminar?

JoeTech: It was. I've been to other conferences and I was on the board for one, but never a marketing conference. I really learned a lot more than I ever thought I would.

Pam: How did you find out about Affiliate Summit?

JoeTech: I think it was John Chow. He had a contest to win a ticket. Then John Cow did the same. Initially, I put my hand up in the air for both, but ended up attending with press credentials, instead.

Pam: Why did you decide to go to Affiliate Summit?

JoeTech: I went for the same reason I think most people wanted to go. I wanted to learn all the secrets of successful affiliate marketing and make new contacts.

Pam: I read all your entries on your blog during the Seminar, did that help you crystallize your thinking about the events of the day while you were there?

JoeTech: It definitely did. I really wanted to do more blogging from the event itself, but the laptop issues I mentioned made that pretty impossible. Having done this once, I have some pretty clear ideas of how to improve on my live blogging from another event like this.

Pam: In your pictures on your blog, there seems to be a lot of areas that weren’t that well attended. I know the Seminar was sold out. Did you see a lot of folks everywhere or did you get the Seminar speakers/organizers to yourself a lot?

JoeTech: It actually was pretty well attended. I got to the Moniker live domain auction when it was about half over and it looked like a lot of people had been there for the first half but left for some reason. It's too bad, too. They missed the sale of Pay.com for $1.5 million.

Everything else was pretty full, but I took some pictures before everyone showed up. I made sure to show up a bit early for a couple events to get a good seat. I also did manage some one-on-one time with a few of the experts because they were very approachable.

Pam: What are the main things you might tell someone considering going to an Internet Marketing Seminar to convince them that they should go?

JoeTech: First and foremost, don't forget your business cards. I would even say that you should pack those before anything else. Socks and underwear are easy to pick up if forgotten, but if you have to get business cards printed from some random printing shop in an hour, you'll probably wind up with cards that don't impress. I saw at least one example of this. Bring comfortable shoes and headache medicine, and map out what booths you want to visit and what forums you want to attend ahead of time.

Pam: Sounds like it was a wonderful experience for you, is there anything else we should know about the Seminar?

JoeTech: One thing I heard people say a lot (mostly in comments on John Chow's and John Cow's blogs) was that they just don't understand why anyone would shell out that much cash to attend this event. Before I attended, I also wondered if it was worth the ticket price. If you're looking at an event like this and want to know if it's worth it, do your research and see what others are saying.

Pam: Tell me a little bit about what you are doing online, add a URL for the convenience of our visitors.

JoeTech: I'm just dipping my big toe into some affiliate marketing now that I've returned from the summit, armed with some tips and tricks. Since JoeTech.com is a tech blog, I'm also trying to get back to more tech posts, so I've got a couple projects on the burner that involve a tennis ball, a robot, a Cube World toy, and a video camera. That's all I'm going to say for now, though.

I'm also working on another tool for my tools page (http://www.joetech.com/tools), so watch for that update soon.

Pam: Did your experience at Affiliate Summit affect what you are doing already? Or will you implement changes later?

JoeTech: Honestly, I wasn't doing much affiliate marketing before I headed to Vegas, but I will be now, and what I already have in place will be getting an overhaul. I'm pretty sure I can make a lot more on my blog with less ads with just a few small changes.

Thanks a million JoeTech, I learn a lot from interviews like this, I'm grateful for your thoughtful responses.

It was my pleasure and I'm honored to do it.

Joe

Speakers Showcase at Meetings Africa 2008

This Souds REALLY Interesting. You can PICK a Speaker for your next event:

Speakers Showcase at Meetings Africa 2008
February 27-29, 2008
???, Africa

"...each of the speakers and comedians gets a twenty minute slot to present a “highlights package” or “movie trailer” version of their presentations to the attendees. This way, conference planners, buyers and organisers get an ideal opportunity to see the speaker or comedian “in action” BEFORE they book them for their next event.

It's always so much easier to book someone to present at a conference, function or dinner once you've seen them speak yourself, and over the last decade Speakers Inc has consistently presented these opportunities to the eventing community."

Almost Like Christmas

Excuse the lapse in actual Seminar posts recently. I've had a lot to celebrate!

Feb. 12th was Lincoln's Birthday AND my Grandma Hoffman's, who is, sadly, no longer with us.

Yesterday was Valentine's Day, a favorite of mine, especially since TODAY is MY Birthday and I'm celebrating by being a little bit lazier than usual.

I share a Birthday with Susan B. Anthony and Galileo Galilei.

Seeing as President's Day (in the USA) isn't too far away and George Washington's Birthday right after that, you can see I'm thinking about some great people as well as having a Birthday right in the middle of all that.

Of course, it kind of bugs me that we have a President's Day right in between the Birthday's of those great men while Susan B. Anthony is virtually unknown.

Susan B. was the first WOMAN in our United States of America to vote! She read the great documents and nowhere in them did it say she couldn't.

She actually went to JAIL for voting! Can you imagine?

I think that is at LEAST as important as what Lincoln and Washington did for our country...

And, heck, February 15th is her birthday AND between the President's Birthdays.

You can probably see where I'm going here. hehe

Why can't we have a MAJOR, MAJOR holiday on February 15th? We'd hit three of America's greats AND...

I'd get my birthday as an 'official' day off.

Success Symposium

This sounds pretty special...

Success Symposium
February 23, 2008
Dallas, TX

I read...

It's not every day that a truly historic launch takes place.

In fact, when it comes to launches in recent memory, I can't think of a single one with the potential to impact the lives of personal development devotees and achievers like us more than the upcoming launch of the all-new SUCCESS magazine. It's going to be historic!

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.

So, this launch will be big! 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.

It's an opportunity I think will enrich areas of your personal and business life that'll have an impact on you for years to come. That's historic!

Traffic West 2008

"Internet traffic and domains are the prime real estate of the 21st century. This market has matured, and individuals, brands, investors and organizations who do not grasp their importance or value are missing out on numerous levels"

--Steve Forbes at Traffic East 2007

Traffic West 2008
February 18-21, 2008
Las Vegas, NV

The key to the success of TRAFFIC is bringing the biggest and the best together. The quality of the folks that attend are beyond question. That puts the decision maker right there in the middle of a place where his/her decision making abilities get to be recognized and engaged over and over again. The ability to do years worth of business in just a few days. TRAFFIC has created an atmosphere of growth and terrific deal making potential. TRAFFIC is clearly more than a tradeshow or conference.

"If you want to have a spectacular product launch, the best way I know how is to get a bunch of partners (affiliates) to promote it. And the best way to get partners on board is to build relationships with successful marketers. If you’re new to this business, the best way to accomplish this is probably to go to an internet marketing seminar."

Joel Comm Says...

Yes, you should read the ebooks, work through the courses and acquire the tools that will help you achieve your goals. A good education is vital.

But beyond that it is crucial that you get connected with the right people who will ultimately have a major impact on your success!

And that happens when you step out of your comfort zone and attend a live event!

I'm going to say it one more time for emphasis... stay with me, please.

If you want to to EXPLODE your business in 2008, you MUST attend a live event!

I don't know how many different ways there are to say this.

If you are one of those who continues running into a wall and wondering why you aren't getting anywhere, it's time for the excuses to end.

On February 8-10, I invite you to join me in Orlando, Florida for one of the world's greatest 3-day opportunities for success...

JV Alert Live!

I have been asked to speak at over a dozen conferences the last few months.

I have turned ALL of them down... except for JV Alert Live in Orlando.

BUT THERE'S A CATCH ...

When I first announce each jvAlert Live Event, I offer a special "Early-Bird" ticket that all of my regulars know about.

Not only do I cut the price almost in half, but I encourage them to bring a guest -- at NO EXTRA COST.

In fact, most of them get together with a friend and split the cost of the ticket, which makes for an amazing deal that almost no one wants to pass up.

That's by design, because I want people who NEED this event to be able to get there.

In fact, if the $695 price is what's keeping you from coming, I want you to let me know, because I don't EVER want money to be the reason that you don't come to a jvAlert Live Event.

THE EARLY-BIRD SPECIAL WILL BE OVER ON JANUARY 8TH!

(The second it's over the price will jump back up to the regular price of $1,297.)

I'm sorry you missed the 'Early-Bird' Special, something to keep in mind for future Seminars though. I mention these things when I can and I posted about this deadline for you earlier this month.

Kenneth seems like a great mentor and I will definitely get to one of his Seminars as soon as possible.

Pamology - Is That Like Pamscrit?

If you want to know more about me here is a little information. Sometimes you read blogs and you don't know anything about the person sharing the information. They just give you boring facts. It's like that teacher you had in high school without a personality. Hopefully, this will let you know more about me. Share some about you.

TECHNOLOGY
Q. What is currently on your computer wall paper?
The boring thing that comes with it - now my LAST computer (i just upgraded) had a picture of the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. That's only because I couldn't get the Pleiades Star Cluster picture to stick!

Q. How many televisions are in your house?
Two.


BIOLOGY
Q. Are you right-handed or left-handed?
Right

Q. Have you ever had anything removed from your body?
Tonsils, 8 adult teeth, my daughter...

Q. What is the last heavy item you lifted?
I make the planet do that sort of thing.

BULLOLOGY
Q. If it were possible, would you want to know the day you were going to die?
Maybe. It would be a good planning timetable. I like to think that I have a little something to do with my own fate..

Q. If you could change your name, what would you change it to?
I've had enough name changes though I do like Pion Iwol. It's a nickname of something much longer..

Q. What color do you think looks best on you?
I noticed one shirt/haircut/earrings combo that looked really great. Brown peasant top, long dangly earrings I made by hand and I don't know what this haircut is called. I wore that at my mom's last November - SHE even noticed!

Q. Have you ever swallowed a non-food item by mistake?
Yeah, it's too awful to mention...

Q. Have you ever saved someone's life?
Yes, I performed the heimlich maneuver on a boy who was choking on a carrot (due to allergies!) and then my daughter when she was about 6 years old. Someone tried to grab her on the street.

Q. Would you allow one of your little fingers to be cut off for $200,000?
Not a chance.

Q. Would you never blog again for $50,000?
With any luck, I'll do better than that BY blogging.

Q. Would you, without fear of punishment, take a human life for $1,000,000?
No way. I could see myself defending me or someone I'm with, with that as an end result. There would have to be no-other-way though.

DUMBOLOGY
Q: What is in your left pocket?
some fluffy stuff, and now, my hand!

Q: Is Napoleon Dynamite actually a good movie?
I have no idea...

Q: Do you have hardwood or carpet in your house?
I don't own a house.

Q: Do you sit or stand in the shower?
Stand, sitting would hurt I think...

Q: Could you live with roommates?
I raised my daughter for almost 20 years. I can live with just about anyone...

Q: Last time you had a run-in with the cops?
The cops... let's see. I just don't remember, sorry!

LASTOLOGY
Q: Person who texted you?
I think I've received those things. I don't know too much about them and it's been awhile since I even owned a cell phone.

Q: Person you texted?
I have never sent a text message.

Q: Last person who called you?
Not sure, I need to check my voicemail!

Q: Person you hugged?
My boyfriend Jeff

FAVORITOLOGY
Q. Football Team?
I'm not a fan of football.

Q: College/Uni?
For what? Attending? Libraries? Meeting people???

Q: Number?
8

Q: Season?
I like them all for their various blessings.

CURRENTOLOGY

Q: Mood?
Focused on working - other than doing this thing!

Q: Listening to?
The rain on the windows.

Q: Watching?
My computer screen

RANDOMOLOGY
Q: First place you went this morning?
I'm at home all day I think, barring something happening...

Q:What can you not wait to do?
I can't WAIT to get my first check from the sale of a Seminar on my Seminar List blog!

Q:What was the last movie you saw?
Watched "Universal Soldier" on cable last night - Tuesday is Movie Day!

As a reader of this post you can now consider yourself tagged! Just create a page on your blog where you answer these questions about yourself. It is fun for you and fun for your readers to learn more about you.

*You post it under your name and ology.

Interview: Ricky of BlackySky At PPC Summit in San Francisco

I originally arranged this interview at the end of last November and Ricky sent it right along last December...

I 'lost' his message for awhile, and recently found it buried in all my emails. I've been looking for it for weeks!

I think I'm getting almost 150 emails a day now! Know the feeling? I was looking for something else and I finally found it!

Ricky, thanks for waiting.


Pam: Hi Ricky! How are you?
Ricky: I’m doing good thanks for asking… I’m a little bit tired but it is ok. Now it is really winter time here in Montreal Canada... anyway I’m happy to be back home

Pam: Remind me, which Seminar did you attend I know it was Patrick Schwerdtfeger’s production, what was it called again?
Ricky: No I change my mind I didn’t go to Schwedtfeger.. My friend and I went to the PPC summit in San Francisco... It was a great occasion to go west coast…

Pam: I think you found out about it from my blog, right?
Ricky: Well I knew it but I forget it but the other day I read it on your blog and said to my friend: look the PPC summit is coming soon.. This is what we need just before Christmas. So we went there and maybe it was a really great choice.

Pam: What did you get out of going to the this Seminar?
Ricky: A lot of people ask me why do you spend money on seminar or why do you go there.

My first answer is for the trip.

It gives you an occasion to see a new city and I love new culture.

One of the most important things is even if your method work pretty well, it won’t hurt you learning another point of view that works well too. I learn new trick and tips that really worth the trip. To answer the question I will say connection and meeting new people. I think this is the only and best place to connect to this great people and brand your name.

Pam: What are the main things you might tell someone considering going to an Internet Marketing Seminar to convince them that they should go?
Ricky: You need to know different point of view about the same subject to be better and you need contact to succeed. It is always fun to talk directly to a person about anything. I do think you can learn much that way then stay home and buy one of this e-book…

Pam: Is there ANYTHING ELSE we should know about the Seminar?
Ricky: You have the best in the industry at the same place and you can make new friends. You can see those people everyone was talking about.

Pam: Tell me a little bit about what you are doing online. Be sure to give us the URL as well.
Ricky: I’m doing a lot of thing on internet... ok this is not a complete answer… Most of the time I’m doing PPC, I was doing a lot of eBay auctions (less then before). Now I got this project on http://blackysky.com.

This is a beta project for now and will make it bigger in January.

This website is a unique platform where you can self promote your blog, website, product, talent and much more by leaving an ads or add a video ads … You can also buy sell trade text link, blog review, banner ad space .. Almost anything at the price you want without any intermediate that will take your money like other services out there.

The blog give update of the website but also give blog tips and where is the buzz around the net all this and much more at http://www.blackysky.com/blog

BlogOnExpo Redux!

OK, Here's the scoop...

Go to: http://www.blogonexpo.com/

That is the 'home' page.

Click on "Sessions" and/or "Exhibits" and you will see links/images.

If you click on the links under Sessions, there are interviews and videos from industry leaders. I've been choosing 'Open in New Tab' so I can stay at the site as well.

If you go to Exhibits, there are icons which are probably clickable too. I've been reading interviews so I'll go back and take another look there for you and report here what I learn.

GO NOW, they will only be offering these insights (and they are dynomite!) for a week!

BlogOnExpo

OMG! I just found out about this and we are in the middle of it!

Let's see...

BlogOnExpo is a collaborative effort that was started by myself, Aditya Mahesh. The goal of this website is to make the experience of attending an industry conference available to all. With prices reaching up to $1000 per ticket plus airfare, hotel bills, and other travel expenses, it is not much of a surprise that many individuals and company’s cannot afford to attend these conferences. Hence, we have attempted to recreate the conference experience online, where it can be accessed at no cost.

Sounds great.

What else?

I'm frantically trying to figure out how you (and i!) can participate in this LIVE event. I say LIVE because you gotta be there when they are.

It IS 'virtual' and you can do it from home.

I'm gonna have to post this now and get back to you when I know more.

Stay Tuned!

Agent Pam -

Your mission if you choose to accept it is to infiltrate a
*all-new* gathering of Rogue Underground Internet "Players" to discover their unique (and never before publicized) moneymaking secrets...

You've probably never heard about these 'Under-The-Radar'
successes banking mega bucks online! (And they would have been happy to keep it that way too - until I figured out a shocking and unexpected way to hold them hostage and let you "SPY" on their businesses!)

Find out how I captured this ALL-NEW group of 'UNDERGROUND'
Internet insiders - who have finally agreed to break their 'code of silence' and reveal exactly how they are quietly making their fortunes online...and how YOU can too!

This is definitely NOT the same "Usual Suspects" you see speaking everywhere else...

Truthfully, it was a gargantuan task to locate, uncover, convince and coax these "mystery" men and women to come forward and pull back the curtain.

What's more, I'm taking another extraordinary step to make sure our guest presenters really lay their cards on the table (you've got to see what I have in store for them - even better than truth serum). ;)

Last year we sold out 6 weeks early and from the buzz going around about this event - I have a strong hunch this one will sell-out even quicker.

Don't miss out!

All the best,

Yanik Silver,

How to Pick a Good Wealth Seminar

Han's, at Wealth Seminar Review, asked for tips on how to pick a good Wealth Seminar.

The process is similar to picking a good real estate seminar which I discussed on my Real Estate Seminar List site. However there are many more choices for wealth seminars.

There are a million ways to make a million dollars.

The first thing is to try to figure out what method works for you. Some people might want to create wealth using internet marketing (probably most of the people reading this). Others might want to use real estate, public speaking, stock trading, foreign exchange, note brokering, etc. The list, while not endless, is quite long.

If you have the time, my advice is to look at several methods before choosing.

Go to as many free seminars as you can find and especially look for multi speaker seminar. That way you can explore several concepts over the course of one weekend.

Be aware that at these seminars they will try to sell you something. That's fine. Their job is to get you to sign up for their own seminar. Again, that's fine. The right information is worth paying for.

How can you tell if it is the right information?

That's the hard question. I don't have a definitive answer to that one. However, I can give you some clues to look for. First, ask around and seek people who have attended that seminar before. You aren't looking to find if it worked or didn't for that person, you want to know why it worked or didn't. If you have different skills and resources, you can tell if it would work out the same way for you.

Second, look at their style of presenting. If they freely give out information then you can be pretty sure they will give out a lot of information at their seminar. If, on the other hand, they are vague, making promises about what they will tell you while telling you little to nothing then they will probably be like that in their seminar.

My rule of thumb is that; if they give enough info for free that I could implement their strategy (if I had the time to reinvent the wheel and make the same mistakes they already made) it's worth paying for. In that case, the value of the seminar is the system they built. Expect them to sell computer tools or, less commonly, paper tools that will make their system much easier to implement. Also expect mentorships to be available. These may be worth getting but the important thing here is that you could do it without the tools or mentorship. It just wouldn't be as easy.

If, on the other hand, they get you all worked up with emotionally loaded phrases and keep promising that they'll give a lot of information if you go to the seminar, you will likely get exactly the same promises and hype at the seminar as they try to sell you an "advanced" version that has all the information they promised would be in the current seminar. If you find yourself in one if these, leave (or stick around and network).

Networking

And always, always network at the seminars. If I haven't been inspired by talking to a random person and I haven't inspired someone, it's a wasted trip. There are a lot of good ideas floating around these seminars and people will give them away for free (because, if they can't or don't want to do it, it has no value to them).

Concluding thoughts

Even a bad wealth seminar can give you good ideas (or let you know that you just don't have the mindset for this lifestyle). The best choice you can make when picking a wealth seminar is to go to one. Many people don't even consider going to a wealth seminar and they will never learn how much they don't know. Going to a wealth seminar will introduce you to concepts that may have never occurred to you. If you do decide that this life isn't for you, your time has not been wasted. You will have made an informed decision instead of just following the rest of the sheep.

They Have Finally Announced Their Seminars!

" Focus Marketing Seminars will be
holding 9 Almost Free Workshops in 9
Different Cities in 2008!"

Robert Puddy & Pat Lovell have FINALLY announce their Seminars and dates. I've had them in my database for AGES wondering when they would have more details already.

A lot of the East Coast (of the United States) will be getting the action though! I'm a little sad about that as I live in Southern California currently.

Your Cities are...

Indianapolis, IN
Cincinatti, OH
Charlotte, NC
Richmond, VA
Baltimore, MD
Philadelphia, PA
New York, NY
Boston, MA
Pittsburgh, PA

Look for them in May and June of 2008. I'll list them individually, about 2-3 weeks before they are presented.

If you'd like more notice than that, stay tuned for my sign up form - still working with aweber. I think I'm getting it. I need to iron out a few more wrinkles (probably mostly in my own head!!). And, if I can figure it out, you can specify the kind of notices you want to get too!

A Couple More Seminars...

A couple more Seminars reached my 'radar' recently and since they will be 'out of order' from the list here, I'll go ahead and List them right away!

Pam Hoffman

Masters Seminar

Ross Goldberg starts:

Every day I talk to people who are struggling to make any money online. In fact, many of them are still stuck working their daytime, dead-end jobs... They are frustrated because they can't do what they really want to earn their living — have their own money earning online business.

It seems like no matter how hard they try, they simply keep failing. If they taste some success with their online business, it doesn't seem to last very long.

Something is missing from their business and they don't know what it is.

It's sad because it doesn't have to be this way. And as I'm talking with these frustrated, struggling internet marketers, it seems like the same 3 questions always come up...

What type of business are they trying to do? Is it affiliate marketing, resell rights, or their own products?

What are some of their personal hobbies and interests?

What have they tried (or not tried) to grow their business?
And then it's only a matter of time.

There's just one question I ask every marker who asks me for my help...

How Often Are You Around Others In Your Niche?
The sad news is, almost every struggling marketer will ask me: Why do I need to meet other people from my industry in person?

It's sad because meeting other marketers in your field can make a huge difference — in any niche!

Spending time with people who work in the same field as you can give you business ideas, new products, and partnerships that would have otherwise been impossible!

I know it's true because I was once a struggling internet marketer too.

And once I attended my first internet marketing seminar...

"My Income Doubled Every Month For 6 Straight Months!"

So you may wish to check out his very nice offer for...

Masters Seminar
January 25-27, 2008
Las Vegas, NV

I THINK that there is also a Workshop on January 24th as well.

The Week Ahead: January 6th thru 12th

The first full week in January and we are moving very slowly back into the Seminar seasons...

I see something for January 15th and something else for the 16th, and then there's that January 17th thing...

I guess you're going to have to wait and see (unless i can get my aweber sign-up thing on here and you can get bunches of Seminars going for months ahead, if you register for my emails...).

OK, I'll go and work on that now, since I don't have any Seminars for your 'Week Ahead' list...

Stay Tuned!

Pam Hoffman

You Won!

Don't you just LOVE to hear those words when it's you?

Unbelieveable!

I found a site that had that - and my name!

500 Entrecard credits were place in my account earlier today.

Thanks to Clint for the credits. That gave me a serious boost to get my 'ad' redone and it is a beaut.

My Contest Winner Should Be Receiving His Gift Certificate About Now!

I offered up a contest recently. It seems like a lot of bloggers are doing this and there are a lot of good prizes out there!

I only got one entrant and, by default, he was the winner!

Patrice of Wavumi left a comment, in a particular post, and he won.

It was that easy!

I sent off his prize about a week ago and they said that he might be getting it about now.

If there had been other entrants, I would have pulled a name from a 'hat' if you will.

I am setting up another contest. Will you be paying enough attention to win?

Stay Tuned and you could win too!

Pam Hoffman

p.s. the next prize is a book...

Domainfest Global

Because of my blog and the way I've been signing up for things (i think) I started getting some interesting publications in the mail and I found out about THIS Seminar in one of them.

Domainfest Global
January 21-23, 2007
Hollywood, CA

Someone of note will be their first Keynote speaker:

Peter Hillary, adventurer and Mount Everest mountaineer, has completed over 35 mountaineering expeditions, was involved in the development of a new route across Antarctica to the South Pole, and was the first to have traversed the length of the Himalayas. With 25 years of experience in extreme risk environments, Hillary will share his unique insights on risk-taking, the spirit of adventure, and how they are relevant to your business decisions.

And a rare occurance for a Seminar on my list:

SnapNames LIVE Auction
SnapNames LIVE Auction continues with more great domain names. A special group of domains will be auctioned to benefit nonprofit organizations through Grassroots.org.

This Seminar is a little different than some that we have seen so far. This Internet Marketing Seminar will be centered around domain name sales. It works a little like the way Real Estate works. Buyers and Sellers of domain names will be most interested in this Seminar.

I think Real Estate is acually more regulated and has some different rules and is probably a little more complicated. It's like anything though, once you get into it, you learn all sorts of things. I know it's been like that with MY line of work!
