Introduction:

Article Marketing is a Powerful Tool

Article marketing has the potential to be the most powerful tool in your arsenal of internet marketing tools. For one thing it doesn’t require any special skills other than the ability to create a simple, short and clearly written article.

Another reason that article marketing can be such a powerful tool is that it is very simple to implement. There are many outlets where your article can be displayed such as the Empower Network, Blogger, and the list goes on. This makes it easy to get your words out and it’s free.

A third reason that makes article marketing so powerful is that it can be highly effective. A well written, keyword-rich article can rank extremely well on Google. For example, this article, How to Write a Great Topic Sentence, ranks 1st out of 1,700,000 search results for its primary keyword.

So, there you have it; three reasons to keep article marketing in mind when selecting from your arsenal of internet marketing tools.

Number 1 - How to Write a Great Topic Sentence

Summary:  The first sentence of any short article is the MOST important sentence in the entire article. The first sentence is referred to as the topic sentence. It represents the main idea of the article. The topic sentence is made up of two parts; a limited subject and a precise opinion. For example, the topic sentence of this article consists of a limited subject; “The first sentence of any article” and a precise opinion; “is the most important sentence in the entire article”. This article will show you how to choose a limited subject, how to express your opinion about the limited subject, and how to write the topic sentence.

Choose a Limited Subject: The key here is to select a subject that’s limited enough to be covered within the confines of the short article. In other words, you should be able to fully support the limited subject using between 300 and 600 words or so. For example, the limited subject of this article, “the first sentence of any short article,” is limited enough to support in a short article. Imagine how long it would take to write an article detailing everything you’ve done over the course of a year. That would be one very long article. Now, imagine writing an article detailing everything you’ve done in just one day. I’d bet you could do that in 300-600 words.

State Your Opinion: You can express your opinion by telling the reader exactly what you think about the limited subject. What, precisely, is your opinion on the subject you have chosen? Does it taste great or is it less filling? Which side are you on? You mustn’t be vague when you express your opinion. Words like nice, good and interesting are vague. They beg the reader to ask, “What do you mean?” Words like beautiful, delicious and dangerous leave little to the imagination.

Writing the Topic Sentence: The basic structure for writing the topic sentence is very simple. First, state the limited subject and then state the precise opinion.

Here are a few examples:

The Godfather is the greatest movie of all time.

Starting a blog is the easiest way to make money online.

Mountain climbing is a dangerous sport.

 I could go on and on but I’m sure you get the point. I hope this will help you write powerful topic sentences in your own articles. It’s pretty easy as long as you remember to stick to a limited subject and as long as you remember to clearly state your precise opinion about that subject. This will help set the level of expectation for the reader and will allow you to focus on supporting your assertion that [insert YOUR limited subject] is [insert YOUR precise opinion].

 

Number 2 - How to Write Using the 3 Step Writing Process 

There are three basic steps in the writing process that all successful writers employ; prewriting, writing and rewriting. Follow these three simple steps and you will instantly become a better and more efficient writer.

Step 1: Prewriting is the process of gathering your ideas before you begin to write. How much time you spend on prewriting depends on the size of the article you intend to write. First, decide upon a specific topic to write about. Then state clearly your opinion about that topic. For example, let's say that you love the Empower Network and you want to write an article about it. Hey, that was easy! A specific topic (the Empower Network) and a clear opinion about it (you love it!). A specific topic combined with an opinion forms the basis for what is known as the topic sentence or thesis. It may look as simple as this; "I LOVE the Empower Network blogging platform!" This could be the first sentence in your article (but it won't because we're going to make it much better in just a moment). Now it's time to move on to the writing stage of the writing process where we'll provide solid support for our emphatically proclaimed topic sentence (or thesis).

Step 2: Welcome to step two of the writing process--writing! Many people freeze up at this stage. In fact, I just did for a moment. It's called writer's block and, according to acclaimed screenwriter Syd Field, "it happens all the time and it happens to everybody." The easiest way to get past writer's block is to just get past it. Just plow forward. Just write. Anything. It doesn't matter. Just get the pen moving. You may be thinking, 'yeah right! Easier said than done!" And you know what? It IS easier said than done! Why else would there be only a handful of writers out there fortunate enough to earn a living through writing? I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Actually, I'm going to let you in on two little secrets. First, writing is simply the process of putting your thoughts on paper. The secret to getting your thoughts out on paper is you have to let them out. Focus on the topic of your article and embrace your opinion and repeat after me; "I love the Empower Network blogging platform because...” or better yet, maybe now is the time to make our first sentence much better; "These are the top five reasons that I love the Empower Network blogging platform."  Now, consider why you love the Empower Network blogging platform so much and write for five or ten minutes. Write whatever comes to mind. Don't stop to think about what you're writing. Just write about this thing you feel so passionate about. Don't worry about spelling. Don't worry about grammar. In five or ten minutes you'll have several hundred words to work with during the next stage of the writing process.

Step 3: Congratulations! You have arrived. You are a writer. You've managed to get your thoughts on paper. But before we present it to the world we'll need to clean it up a bit. The process of editing your work is called rewriting. Now is the time to turn on that part of your brain that loves to organize things. The first thing you want to do is go for the low hanging fruit. Fix all the obvious mistakes like spelling and grammar problems. Next you want to read your article out loud. Listen carefully for awkward sentences. Take your time. It's not like you're a cub reporter for the Daily News and you have a deadline to make! Take a break and come back to it later. Ask a friend to review it and provide feedback (be careful here--I once asked a friend to take a look at something I wrote and it came backed covered in red ink. The only thing missing was a big fat capital "D" at the top of the page).

Obviously good writing takes a certain amount of skill and effort. Fortunately it doesn't require that much time. It should take no more than a minute or two to come up with the topic sentence or thesis. You know what you like, you know what you're really good at--so write an article based on that. It only takes five to ten minutes to spill your unedited thoughts onto a piece of paper. It shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to an hour to rewrite those words into a clear and concise 350 to 450 word article. Remember, to get really good at something you need to first learn the process of doing it. Then you need to repeat that process over and over again. That's called practice. I've shared with you the process. Now it's up to you to put it into practice.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the second little secret. According to many professional writers, the real secret to good writing is using examples. I’ll talk more about this later.

The fundamentals of article writing can be learned. Once learned they can be practiced. Once practiced they can be mastered. 

 

Number 3 – How to Write a 300 Word Article in 1 Hour

Summary - Are you an expert in a particular field and would like to write an article with little effort and as fast as possible? Would you like to learn a simple technique that will allow you to write a 300 word article, with very little effort, in about an hour?

If you want to write an article in less than an hour it’s best if you begin with a topic that you’re very familiar with and passionate about. Anything else will require research and a level of effort that’ll make the writing process longer. This article will show you how to write a 300 word article, with very little effort, in about an hour.

The first ten minutes: I like to begin by clustering. Clustering is the creation of Gabriele Rico, author of “Writing the Natural Way,” a bestselling book that teaches you “how to use right-brain techniques to release your expressive powers.” Clustering can be learned within a few minutes of reading chapter 2 of Dr. Rico’s book (should be available at your local public library). Once learned it takes only a minute or two to create a cluster and then an additional 8 minutes to turn the cluster into a 400 to 700 word first draft. That’s 400 to 700 words in ten minutes! But we’re not done yet. Now it’s time to edit the draft into a presentable article.

The next 45 minutes: My goal during this phase is to edit the draft into a 300 word article. Basically all I do is read it out loud and make changes. I do this over and over again until I’ve whittled it down to about 300 words.

The final 5 minutes: I spend this time reading the article out loud and making minor adjustments. I do this over and over again until I think it’s just right. Then I ask my wife to read it out loud as I listen with my eyes closed. If it seems right I submit it for publication. If not I let it rest for a while (maybe a day) and I read it again and make changes as necessary.

That’s all there is to it. Cluster, Write, Edit, Submit. It’s like a dance. Cluster, Write, Edit, Submit. It may take a little practice but once you get the hang of it there will be no stopping you.


Number 4 - How to Write a Clearly Written Article in 4 Easy Steps 

Nothing is more frustrating than an article that is difficult to understand. Here are 4 simple steps that will help you to write a focused article that will allow your readers to move from one sentence to the next and follow your ideas without any misunderstanding.

1. One thing you can do to write a clear and coherent article is stick to the point. Everything you say must support the main point. If your main point is that “The Godfather” is the greatest movie of all time don’t waiver and complain that you thought the heart attack in the garden scene was too long. This would be a distraction and it may lead to confusion.

2. Another thing you can do to write a clear and coherent article is to explain your support. For example, stating that “The Godfather was well directed and had many fine actors” might support your opinion that you think “The Godfather” is a great movie but you haven’t really explained your support enough to sway the reader. If you say that it was directed by one of the world’s most highly acclaimed directors, and you named all of the famous stars, and you mentioned all of the awards it received, and you included a few quotes from the world’s most highly respected film critics, the reader is more likely to agree that you have a case.

3. Another way to avoid confusion is to remind your readers of your opinion. As your readers move from one sentence to the next, they like to be reminded of your opinion of the topic. An easy way to do this is to repeat the exact (or similar) words of the opinion for each item of support. For example, in this article, the first sentence in each supporting paragraph serves to remind the reader of the main idea that was presented in the opening paragraph.

4. Another way to ensure that you’re understood is to include transitions. An article without transitions lacks coherence. It clunks along from one idea to the next. It can be very confusing to read. We can help the reader move from one sentence to the next by adding transitions. Transitions are used to add an idea, to provide an example, to make a comparison and/or to signal the approach of the ending. Words and phrases like also, another, for instance, for example, however, on the other hand, as a result, therefore, and in conclusion are all transitions. Carefully placed they will help your reader understand exactly what you’re saying.

Follow these steps and you will be well on your way toward producing clearly written articles that your readers will be able to follow and understand.

 

Number 5 - How to Develop Your Article Using Subtopic Sentences

This article will show you how to easily develop a compelling short article in a relatively short period of time using subtopic sentences. Subtopic sentences are lead-in sentences that allow you to easily support your main idea (aka your topic sentence).

Consider the following topic sentence; The Godfather is the greatest movie of all time.

How can I support this topic sentence? I can begin with my first subtopic sentence (to which I’ve added a few statistics);

For one thing it won three Academy Awards including Best Actor, Best Picture and Best Screenplay, and it was nominated in 8 other categories.

That may not be enough to convince the reader. So I’ll add another subtopic sentence (along with a few statements from authorities);

It also received glowing reviews from acclaimed critics. Vincent Camby  of the New York Times said, “Francis Ford Coppola has made one of the most brutal and moving chronicles of American life ever designed within the limits of popular entertainment.” Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times said, “The story by Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola is a brilliant conjuring act, inviting us to consider the Mafia entirely on its own terms.”  Edward Guthman of the San Francisco Chronicle said, “In scene after scene ... Coppola crafted an enduring, undisputed masterpiece.”

That’s better, but I like to give at least three types of support for my topic sentences. So, I’ll add my third subtopic sentence (along with my own personal opinion to support it);

But the most compelling reason that I think the Godfather is the greatest movie of all time is this; no other movie in the history of the world captures the essence of what it means to be part of a family--functional or dysfunctional--the way that the Godfather does.

I hope you find this information helpful in developing your articles. All it takes is a little practice and before you know it you’ll find that the article writing process becomes much easier. After all it is a process and if you follow the rules of that process you should be successful. Just like baking a cake.

 

Number 6 – How to Motivate People to Read Your Article

It’s really not all that difficult to get someone to read your article. You just have to structure it so your reader feels compelled to read it. There are three ways of doing this.

First, create an interesting title. Second, create a compelling motivator. Finally, provide good examples of support.

Create an interesting title by answering a burning question. For example, I know for a fact that there are a lot of people who HATE to change the water in their aquariums. “Isn’t there an easier way to change the water in my aquarium?” is an example of a burning question. “How to Clean Your Aquarium Quickly and Easily” is an example of an answer to that burning question.

Let’s move on to the compelling motivator (aka the first sentence). Create the first sentence by converting the title into a topic sentence and attaching a three point blueprint (aka the thesis with blueprint). This will let the reader know what he can expect if he continues to read your article.

“This article will show you how the Python No Spill Clean & Fill will allow you to change the water in your aquarium in less than fifteen minutes, without disturbing the fish and without spilling a drop” is an example of a compelling motivator.

One thing to point out here; the three blueprint points should be listed in order of importance starting with the most important point first.

If you truly believe the Python No Spill Clean & Fill is the greatest thing since the Roboco Automatic Bread Slicer then providing examples of support for each of the blueprint points should be a piece of cake. Simply provide personal examples, site statistics, and/or include statements by authorities and customer testimonials. Read the following examples of support for the three blueprint points:

Once everything was hooked up I turned on the water and began vacuuming the gravel at the bottom of the tank. It was amazing! I have a 55 gallon tank and I was able to change out the recommended amount of water within 15 minutes.

I have a very large and jittery catfish who likes nothing better than to lay around on the bottom of the tank all day. Previous attempts to clean the aquarium resulted in frightening him to the point that he’d flail around sending debris all over the place. Not only did this make it impossible to thoroughly clean the tank, it put a lot of extra pressure on the tanks filtration system. Using the Python No Spill Clean & Fill I was able to clean the tank without disturbing the catfish at all! It was as if I wasn’t even there. I even bumped against him a couple of times to get to the gravel beneath him and he just moved out of the way.

In the past I’d spill water all over the place getting the dirty water into the bucket and then getting the bucket to the tub and then getting the bucket with fresh water (to which I’ve added an assortment of chemicals) back to the tank. Using the Python No Spill Clean & Fill I was able to connect one end of the unit to my faucet and the other end (the vacuum end) into the tank. I turned on the water, flipped a directional switch and totally vacuumed the bottom of my tank in about 10 minutes. Then I flipped the directional switch again and filled the tank in about 5 minutes. And because the water was being aerated at the faucet I didn’t have to add any chemicals! Thanks to this excellent product my tank and the water in it has never been cleaner.

And that’s all there is to it to get someone to read your article; great title, persuasive motivator and plenty of good support.

 

Number 7 - How to Write a Blog Post in Less Than 30 Minutes

Here’s a simple 6 step process that’ll allow you to write a 300 to 500 word article quickly and very efficiently. In fact, you’ll be able to write great content for your blog, website or favorite article directory in about 30 minutes. Here are the six steps to follow:

Step 1: Select a topic that you know something about. It helps if you’re passionate about the topic. The more passionate you are the faster and easier it’ll be to write the article.

Step 2: Develop an outline. The outline will consist of the specific topic, your very precise opinion about the topic, and three talking points. The three talking points will answer the question how, why or when with respect to the topic and your opinion.

Step 3: Put your thoughts on paper. Let’s pretend that the topic you’ve selected is an individual’s credit score and your opinion is that a bad credit score can have a negative effect on an individual’s health, wealth and overall well being. You can then provide three examples of how a bad credit score can affect an individual, three examples of why a bad credit score can affect an individual, or three examples of when a bad credit score can affect an individual. Stick to how, why OR when within an article. Don’t try to answer how, why AND when within a single article.

Step 4: Type or speak your notes into your computer’s word processor. Sometimes I type but when it’s convenient I like to speak the words into the word processor via speech recognition software (I recommend Dragon Naturally Speaking). Either way is fine but if your voice to text software is accurate it can speed up the process (unless of course you’re a very fast typist).

Step 5: Format your article. Format your article using a five paragraph model. In a five paragraph article the introduction is followed by three central paragraphs that are followed by a conclusion. The topic and opinion are part of the introduction. The three talking points are covered in the three central paragraphs. The conclusion reminds the reader of the topic and opinion and prompts the reader to take some action such as providing a comment and/or visiting an alternate website to learn more.

Step 6: Edit your article using Microsoft Reader. I’ve been using Microsoft Reader lately and I’ve cut my editing time in half. First I print the article. Then I convert it to the reader format and I hit play and this robot-like voice starts reading the article to me. I make pen and ink changes to the printed document and then I apply the changes to the electronic copy. Then I let the reader read it back to me one more time and I’m done. It’s like having a personal assistant. Microsoft Reader is free and can be downloaded at the Microsoft website. If you don’t use this tool you can just read your article out loud while you edit.

Just follow these six steps over and over again and you’ll be amazed how much faster and efficiently you’ll begin to write articles and posts.

Number 8a - How to Write Using the One Paragraph Article Model 

This is a handy guide that will help you anytime you sit down to write an article.  Print it and carry it everywhere you go.

The one paragraph article model (which is based on the one paragraph essay model) consists of three parts:

1. The first sentence is called the topic sentence. It describes the main idea that you want your reader to accept.

2. The next few sentences are called the middle sentences. These sentences provide specific support for the main idea that was presented in the topic sentence. Support is presented in the form of examples, statistics and/or authoritative statements.

3. The last sentence is called the conclusion. It is basically rewording of the first sentence. It serves to remind your reader of the point you’ve just made.

Here’s an example of a blog post I recently wrote using the one paragraph single opinion essay model:

According to many writing teachers, the secret to good writing is using examples. One type of example is called a quick example. A quick example is a single occurrence of whatever it is that you’re writing about. If you’re writing about fast food, a quick example would be “a hamburger”, “a hot dog”, or “a slice of pizza”. In other words, these are all quick examples of fast food. To be more effective, a quick example should be specific. For example, “a bacon double cheeseburger” is a more effective quick example than “a hamburger”. So start using quick examples and watch as your writing improves and your readership grows.


Number 8b - How to Write Using the Five Paragraph Article Model 

The five paragraph article model (which is based on the 5 paragraph essay model) consists of 3 parts as well:

1. The first sentence is called the topic sentence. It describes the main idea that you want your reader to accept.

2. The next few sentences are called the middle sentences. Instead of a single opinion on a specific topic, the 5 paragraph article expresses three separate opinions on a specific topic. These sentences provide specific support for the main idea that was presented in the topic sentence.  Support is presented in the form of examples, statistics and/or authoritative statements.  Simply Follow the guidelines for the single opinion article except this time you’ll add 3 ideas that support the main idea.

3. The last sentence is called the conclusion. It is basically a rewording of the first sentence. It serves to remind your reader of the point you’ve just made.

Here’s an example of a blog post I recently wrote using the five paragraph multiple opinion essay model:

According to many writing teachers, the secret to good writing is using examples. There are basically three types of examples; quick examples, narrative examples, and specific examples.

A quick example is a single occurrence of whatever it is that you’re writing about. If you’re writing about fast food, a quick example would be  “I ate a hamburger”, “a hot dog”, or “a slice of pizza.” In other words, these are all quick examples of fast food.

You can use a narrative example to tell a story that revolves around your topic: “Yesterday I went to lunch with my wife and had a delicious bacon double cheeseburger. Not a good thing for my diet but it gave me a chance to spend time with her.”

Specific examples are used to make a quick example more effective. For example, “On Friday I ate a bacon double cheeseburger with lettuce, pickles, and onions” is a more effective quick example than “I ate a hamburger.”

So now you know the secret to good writing-- use examples-- quick examples, narrative examples, and specific examples.

 

Number 9 - The Simple Secret to Good Writing

According to “the Practical Writer” by Edward Baily and Philip Powell, the secret to good writing is using examples. Why then do so many writers refrain from using examples? This article will teach you how to overcome this problem by discussing two kinds of examples:

  • Quick Examples
  • Narrative Examples

Using Quick Examples:

To be effective, a quick example has to be specific. Let’s look at some examples of non-specific quick examples and see how they can be improved by making them more specific.

 

  • My wife likes jewelry.
  • My wife likes jewelry; especially diamonds, and emeralds, and pearls (oh my!).

 

  • My son likes football.
  • My son loves all levels of football; Pop Warner, High School, college and professional – it doesn’t matter – my son loves football.

 

  • When I was a boy, I was afraid of my mother’s garden because it was filled with insects.
  • When I was a boy, I was afraid of my mother’s garden because it was filled with crawly ants, creepy beetles, scary spiders and wiggly worms.

Using Narrative Examples:

A narrative example is like a little story.  It allows the reader to visualize.

For example, the third quick example above may give the reader the idea that the writer is afraid of insects but a narrative example may tell quite another story:

“When I was a boy, I was afraid of my mother’s garden because it was filled with crawly ants, creepy beetles, scary spiders and wiggly worms. Did I mention the slimy slugs?” That may seem strange coming from noted entomologist, Dr. Clifford Leech, but it’s true.

“When I was a boy,” he said, “I read somewhere that the weight of the insects found on earth plus their larvae is greater than the weight of all the other animals on earth put together. I was so intrigued that I decided that day that I wanted to study insects.

While observing insects in my mother’s garden one pleasant spring morning I asked my older sister, Robin, if it was true about the weight of insects. ‘Why of course it is,’ she said.

"Fascinating!" I thought as I watched the myriad of insects parading through the dirt. Just then my Robin kicked over a stepping stone.  I fell back in shock. I’d never seen so many spiders and worms crawling around in one place! That night I dreamed that our house was swallowed up by a huge sink-hole created by the unbearable weight of the insects.

Determined to prevent this catastrophe, I read everything I could about insects. Eventually I realized that the planet was not likely to cave-in but it took a while before I felt comfortable enough to venture into my mother’s garden.”

So now you know the secret of good writing. I hope you use it as I have. It will make writing much easier and a lot more fun. Most importantly, your readers will appreciate your writing and will come back for more.

 

Number 10 - How to Spin an Article

I can be hard-headed sometimes.  An internet marketing wizard who I know and trust recommended an article spinning product to me several weeks ago.  I ignored his advice because I felt that there was no way on Earth some software was going to re-write my article into hundreds of unique content articles that could be automatically submitted to various article directories resulting in massive traffic to my website.  Then someone else mentioned article spinning to me and I ignored it, and then again, and again.  Finally I took a short peek at a video someone put together showing the article spinning process to me.  I started to pay attention and the wheels in my head started spinning and soon enough I broke out a pen and a pad of paper and wrote down the title of the most widely viewed article I’d ever written:

How to Write a Great Topic Sentence 

I began to “spin” the title manually using the techniques that were described in the video.  I quickly came up with a decent number of unique variations right off the top of my head:

How to [Create, Develop, Produce] Write a [Fantastic, Amazing, Compelling, Good, Brilliant] Great [Opening, Main, First] Topic [Statement] Sentence

Further spins results in at least 18 different titles.  As I started to read the new titles I realized that each variation might be more appealing to different markets.  For example “How to Write a Great Topic Sentence” is very appealing to college freshmen who are learning how to write essays.  “How to Develop a Compelling Opening Statement” might be more appealing to 1st year law students.  “How to Create a Fantastic First Sentence” might appeal to article writers in general.

This simple manual technique can be applied to the body of the article as well.  Depending on the length of the article it might take forever.  But if it resulted in hundreds of unique articles it might be worth it, eh?  But what if the article spinning software being promoted in the video could actually spin the body of the article resulting in a multitude of unique and coherent articles as advertised.

So I went back to the video and paid close attention.  “I’ve gotta try this,” I thought to myself.  I signed up for the free version online and pretty soon I was knuckle deep in spinning my article.

When I was finished spinning I had 30 unique articles.  I had the task of reviewing each one and I found that several of them were unusable in that they contained grammatical errors and awkward sentences.  I decided that if I was going to spin articles I would do it manually.  The good thing about manual spinning is that you can take a well written piece of writing and spin it and in the process you will actually learn how to write better.  It’s like taking a famous painting and trying to copy it.  Or taking your favorite song and singing it over and over.  It’s called practice and the more you do it the better you get.

P.S. I tried spinning “The Undefeated” (a short story by Ernest Hemingway).  It resulted in the first chapter of my web comic “Johnnie Oh and the Scarlet Portent. Here’s an excerpt:

The door leading to the office of Winn Mills swung gently open. Johnnie Oh walked in and stopped several feet short of the huge mahogany desk behind which sat the dapperly attired Winn Mills.

Johnnie stood at parade rest, the envelope behind his back.  He cleared his throat.

Winn’s eyes lit up the minute he saw Johnnie.  He sprang from behind his desk to greet him with a hug.  He released him and took a step back to admire his protégé, his best agent and, he thought, with great emotion, his best friend.

"Thank God you’re alive, man!" he said.

“Knock on wood,” replied Johnnie.

“You’re looking good old man,” Johnnie continued with good humor.

“Who you calling old, you cocky bastard?” replied Winn. “Let me get you a drink.”

Winn headed across the room to the bar.  Johnnie dropped the envelope on the desk before following him.

"Did you look in the envelope?" Winn asked as he poured the drinks.

"Not yet," Johnnie answered.

He handed Johnnie his drink.

"Cheers, my friend,” he said raising his glass in a toast.

Johnnie nodded his head while raising his own glass.

“Cheers,” he replied.   He sipped the ice cold Stoly.

"The explosion!”  Winn exclaimed excitedly. “It was all over cable, the news!."  He unconsciously stroked the back of his bald head, smoothing the few remaining slick black hairs, as he walked back to the huge tinted window opening to a stunning panorama of the city’s Upper East Side. He gazed out the window for a moment before turning toward Johnnie. “It reminded me so much of that day with your…father.”

Johnnie’s intense gray eyes shot daggers into Winn’s damp, slightly blood shot orbs.

“I’m sorry, Johnnie,” he said softly.

Johnnie Oh relaxed a bit. He held no animosity toward Winn.

The man had been like a father to him, in some ways more so than his natural father.

“Don’t be sorry,” Johnnie Oh replied.

He gulped down his drink and turned away.  Johnnie Oh was now facing the paneled wall adjacent to the window. The dark, rich Mahogany paneling was almost completely awash in the light of the midday sun. Like a big fat selfish Tabby, a thick gray cloud drifted in eventually settling in the path of the sunlight, effectively obscuring the details of the wall. As if on cue, a stiff breeze pushed the stubborn cloud away allow a ray of sunlight to spill upon a portion of the wall that Johnnie Oh hadn’t noticed before.

Here, bathed in golden sunshine, a small but ornate gilded frame rested upon a small and equally ornate marble shelf that had been skillfully adjoined to the rich mahogany paneling. The frame contained a photograph. His eyes went wide as he recognized the black and white photograph of his mother. He held it in his hands and gazed upon her countenance longingly. Emotions, long held prisoner in the steel cage of his mind, began to stir. He beat them back but a single determined tear struggled mightily and finally succeeded at escaping from the corner of his damaged left eye.

“Banzai!” it screamed joyously as it fell to the carpet where it was quickly absorbed by the rich fibers. “Enough of that,” he thought to himself, half-proud, half-ashamed of the mental lockdown he’d imposed upon himself. He replaced the picture on the mantel and quickly - almost instantly - composed himself before he turned to Winn again.  “I haven’t seen that picture in years,” he said, more to himself than anyone else.  He focused his gaze on Winn. This time it was softer, less threatening. “Where’d you get that picture, Winn?” he asked with a silly grin on his face.

In light of Johnnie’s new mood, Winn felt it safe to tell him the truth. "It was in the safe. One of the few things that wasn’t destroyed by the blast,” he said. “I was saving it for you but we thought you were killed.  Thank god you survived.  There’s a bunch of bad guys out there waiting to be caught by the world famous Johnnie Oh!” Winn glanced briefly at the envelope on his desk.  “I was gonna give this job to Mervyn,” he started, “Mervyn’s good, but now with you back, well, there’s nobody better for this job.”

Mervyn Friedman was the most atypical secret agent anyone could imagine.  At six seven he was the tallest agent Johnnie Oh had ever known. At fifty-eight he was the oldest field agent Johnnie Oh had ever known. And with advanced degrees in criminal psychology and political science, he was the smartest agent Johnnie Oh had ever known. He was an introvert and a social retard and was typically shunned by the other agents, but there existed a mutual respect between him and Johnnie.  “Have a seat Johnnie. Let’s catch up,” Winn said.  Johnnie Oh shrugged and sat in the chair.

How Harvey helped me make my very first dollar online...

YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH A LOT OF DIRT TO GET TO A DIAMOND

Big_diamond
I just received an email from my friend Harvey Segal. Just so you know, Harvey helped me make my very first dollar online (actually he helped me make my very first $39 online).  So when Harvey talks, whether it’s good news or bad, I usually pay attention to what he has to say.  Here's a portion of his email;

Hi Folks,

The good news is that promoting the Ultimate Super Tip is well worth the effort. We have 11 affiliates with 50+ sales.  Our top affiliate is way, way ahead of all the others with an astonishing 918 sales.  And the bad news?  Well the bad news is just for me. I don't get any of the proceeds of those sales.  It is you - my affiliates - who get the full 100%.  When you consider that the sale prices are $10 and $37 with the majority going for $37 you have an idea of what a good affiliate can earn.  You can be one of them.  Don't just stick your affiliate link on a traffic site that will get you nowhere.

Harvey’s email included a link to a promotion guide that contains a boat load of ideas to help me join the ranks of the top Ultimate Super Tip affiliates. I've downloaded it and will give it my due diligence and I'll be back to let you know what I think.

…Tick Tock

OK, I'm back and boy was I blown away!  I'm just starting to truly realize how powerful and necessary MARKETING is.  I'm also beginning to truly understand why so many people fail to make any money online.  They give up too soon!

“Most people give up just when they’re about to achieve success.  They quit on the one yard line.” ~ Ross Perot

Once you understand this popular English proverb you will begin to make money online:

IF YOU THROW ENOUGH MUD AT THE WALL, SOME OF IT WILL STICK

You see, most people get tired of throwing mud at the wall and they quit.  Or, they get tired of moving piles of dirt and they quit.  They get tired of chasing their family and friends and they get tired of spending money on training and tools that do nothing but make the gurus rich.  But what if you had a powerful machine that could launch tons of mud at the wall for you?  What if you had a powerful machine that could sift through tons of dirt for you?  What if you could get people to chase YOU instead and what if you had access to free training, tools, and support that the gurus charge thousands for?

That’s exactly what MARKETING is; a powerful machine that can reach millions of people on the internet.  A powerful machine that will do most of the work, all of the time, and never quit!

What Harvey offers in his Ultimate Super Tip ebook (which by the way is free to download—he doesn’t even ask for your email) has been hailed as the “Greatest Marketing Idea of All Time!” by a number of internet marketing gurus.  I actually wrote a review on this ebook a while back.

If you read the review you could tell that I was very impressed with Harvey’s book and all the free bonuses that came with it.  And like I said I made a little money promoting the book but you know what happened?  I got tired of promoting it.  I got tried of sifting through the dirt looking for my diamonds.  I didn’t have a powerful machine to help me sift through the dirt.  Well, actually I did; I had a Twitter account and that allowed me to get my message out to a lot of people but I didn’t want to alienate my followers with “spam”.  That is exactly how the majority of marketing messages on the social sites are perceived.  Same with Facebook and the other social sites, no one wants to be marketed to on those platforms.

And then it occurred to me, I still had a powerful machine that I wasn’t using to its fullest potential; my blog!  I discovered that I could write about the Ultimate Super Tip on my blog and if done properly I could get a ton of free traffic and I could generate a list of followers and I could convert these followers into customers.

This is how it’s done. This is how people make money on line. This is MARKETING!

If you haven’t figured it out yet, most of the links in this article will take you to my affiliate webpage where you can download Harvey’s book for free.  Remember he won’t even ask for your name or your email.  Here’s the link once more for your convenience:

The Empower Network is Leveling the Playing Field

There is a major controversy taking place in the world of network marketing these days.

There are those who rely on "old school" methods of marketing and those who have taken to the internet to build their downlines.

The old school methods involve getting to know people and creating relationships.  This usually takes place in the physical world.  It involves contacting friends and family, going to meetings, talking on the telephone, meeting new people in the mall, on airplanes, and other "hands on" methods.

The modern methods also involve getting to know people and creating relationships.  This usually takes place online.  It involves contacting friends and family and meeting and getting to know new people via social media sites, internet marketing, email, etc.

The old school methods can be challenging to some.  Not everyone is a natural salesperson or an extrovert and not everyone has a charismatic personality.   You can become this person but it will require a lot of time and a laser focus on personal development.

The modern methods can also be challenging to some.  Especially those who are not computer savvy and those who are not internet marketing gurus with huge followings.  You can become this person but it will require a lot of time to acquire the necessary technical expertise.

While this controversy brews there is a third group forming to combine the best of both worlds with an inventive twist; the Empower Network.

My name is RC Bonay and I'm a proud member of the Empower Network.

All I do is blog, learn how to market, listen to personal development audios, watch personal development videos, attend personal development events and help people do the same.

It's easy and it's fun. Best of all it only costs $25 to get started.

Here's what you get for only $25:

Can I give you $15,000 this month?

I hope you had a good thanksgiving…

…mine was kind of unique – this year,
rather than just a ‘hearty meal’

I was actually a part of this:

In case you’re not familiar with
marketing shenanigans…

…you’re looking at $1,159,523.20

…paid out in 100% commissions :-D

Now, normally – that would be nothing
to sneeze at -

- because that’s what most people would
be BRAGGING about over 2 or 3 YEARS…

…the unique thing about that, though:

That was 4 weeks (even) in 100%
commissions :-D

See – that wasn’t $1.15 million in ‘Guru
Cash’ that was held at the top of a mountain…

…as you’ll see in THIS VIDEO:

http://empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=rcbonay

The ‘gurus’ barely got any of it.

This was 100% paid to the people.

Grinders.

Beginners.

FRUSTRATED newbies :-D

People just like YOU.

Have you seen this yet?

http://empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=rcbonay

Here’s the SIMPLE:

While you’ve been sitting there…

…probably broke :-D

(no offense – Dave Wood started in a van)

I’ve been raking in 100% commissions -
all online…

…without ever picking up the phone.

While you’ve been struggling with setup,
FTP nonsense, and trying to learn what
a ‘server cluster’ is…

…I’ve been raking in 100% commissions,
and to be honest -

- I don’t even want to make a product.

Here’s the simple:

Don’t make me a Guru – just give me
the money.

Does that sound fair?

Watch this:
http://empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=rcbonay

Tonight, at 9pm EST (sharpe – no pun intended)

We’re getting together…

…with a plan.

To give YOU $15,000 monthly.

No guarantees.

No hype.

No bull.

You can follow the plan or not.

That’s up to you.

We’ll lay it out – show you the
strategy…

…it’s up to you to take action.

Dave Wood has used this to sponsor
more than 3,500 people in one year…

…9,329 people have used this to earn
more than $1,159,523.20 in the last
4 weeks alone…

Will you take action?

Enough with the bull.

Other people are telling you to be a Guru.

I’ve seen a lot of good people go
broke trying to be something
they’re not…

…and I’ve seen a lot of average
people make a LOT of money
being who they are :-D

You don’t have to be a Guru…

…let me just help you get paid
like one.

How?

Watch this:

$1,000,221.20 in 3 weeks :) Congratulations everyone!

I'd like to share an email from David Sharpe....

will this work for everyone? I don't know....

but I'm going to try it and find out. I'll keep you posted.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I don’t really know what to say right now.

A minute ago, I happened to be logged
in to the backoffice down at Empower
Network…

…and I refreshed the screen:

admin pic 1

Now I didn’t know how much money
we had paid out to the people until
that moment…

…and I went into a minute of pure suspense.

I called my partner David Sharpe – and I
said:

“Dave, Dave – login man, we’ve almost
paid people a MILLION dollars in 3
weeks…”

He said – “no way”

So Dave logged in…

…we refreshed the screen.

NOTHING.

…so we refreshed it again.

You won’t believe what we saw…

…so I’ll just show you:

admin pic 2

$1,000,221.20 paid OUT to the people…

Just decide to take action.

I can’t tell you the way I feel right now.

Because we just pulled off a million
dollar launch…

…in 3 weeks.

This launch was different, though.

Why?

Because this launch wasn’t about
the Gurus – it was about empowering
the people.

This launch didn’t put $1,000,221.20
into my pocket…

…this launch put $1,000,221.20 into
YOUR pocket.

No Gurus participated.

This was ALL the people.

The nobodies – who have now
became somebody – because the
had a dream, and never, ever quit.

Congratulations Empower Network.

In 3 1/2 short weeks…

…you and I have changed history.

If you’re in the Empower Network,
I just wanted to tell you how grateful
I am.

You guys have made my dream a
reality.

We’ve struggled.

We’ve had legal issues.

I’ve been in a hotel for 3 weeks straight,
and haven’t seen my wife almost at
all.

We’ve had merchant issues.

We’ve had international issues.

Yet you and I have overcame them all.

Congratulations.

You’ve done it.

What will we do in the next 3 weeks?

Join Here.

Here’s a list of people I could not have
done this without (note, that I can’t list
all 8,324 members of the Empower
Network):

First – my wife Ashley. This lady was
there with me since the beginning.

She believed in me when I was no one.

Because of her, I became someone.

Thank you Ashley.

I love you.

Second, Dave Sharpe – without your
conversions genius, there’s no way
we would have a sales video that
gets 25% of everyone who opts
in to buy something…

…you are a genius man – and youw
were there with me, not sleeping for
weeks on end, dumping every bit of
money you had along with myself
to make this work.

I appreciate you dude – but it’s just
the beginning.

Finally, our programmer – I’m not
going to mention you by name – but
I know you’ll see this bro.

Without you, we would be another
fatality of technology not keeping
up with the people – you rock bro :)

I’d give you a hug – but you think that’s
wierd :)

Most importantly – these are the MOST
important people in The Empower Network…

…our LEADERS :)

[WARNING] Turkey may cause brain malfunction

I wanted to share an email with you (from Nick Bramble)...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Black Friday Canceled for Thousands of People

It happens every single year.

I don’t know if it’s too much turkey, too much
much drink, too much pumpkin pie, or all of
the above…

BUT…

Lot’s of people (maybe even you)… are
about to do some crazy stuff just to save a
couple of bucks.

Black Friday is coming and with it, some insanity
usually only seen in buildings with padded walls.
I think they actually call it “Black Friday” because
your mind goes black and you make decisions to do
things you would even think to do on any other day.

You may sleep overnight on a Walmart sidewalk…

You may get in a shopping cart crash up derby to
get to some bargain brand laptop that’s not worth
the “sale” price just slapped on it…

You may wrestle with a total stranger to get
the last “white thumpy bunny pillow pet” for $5
off …

You’ll stay up all night.

You’ll battle savings crazed maniacs
and turkey comatose zombies…

And for what?

To save a couple of bucks?

Is it really worth it?

What if you could shop when you wanted to?

Or… buy what you wanted, even if you had to pay
$5 more, but got to save yourself from the
madness described above?

What if you could save money when it was
convenient for you and without risking your
life fighting the turkey coma zombies?

Wouldn’t that be nicer?

What if you could learn to pull money out
of thin air whenever you wanted or needed?

If that’s sounds nicer… Pay Attention, things

are about to get interesting for you…

Watch this now:

Almost a Secret

You’ll see how over 8,120 people in the last 22 days
have put themselves in position to never worry
about money (or the insanity that goes along with
not having enough of it) ever again!

And how YOU can too if you decide.

Here’s what you’ll be exposed to:

- A new way to get money that pays you 100%
commissions directly deposited into your bank
account daily, hourly …even by the minute.

- How you can earn more doing less work
and avoid set-up, hassles and complications
of a typical internet business.

- How you’ll NEVER have to convince, sell or
explain anything to anyone ever again to earn
money.

- Why 100% of the people who see this want
it ….immediately, and why that means tremendous
cash-flowfor you right away.

- How an engineer with a full time job and a family
to pay attention to generated over $40,000 in just
22 days in his spare time.

- How a Grandma made money online for the
first time in her life.

- How dozens of people’s Christmas presents have
already been paid for (no Black Friday Craziness!)

- Plus, you’ll see exactly how nearly 1 MILLION
dollars was earned by regular people just like you
in those same 22 days.

Bottom line…

You can have 100% commissions deposited into
your bank account effortlessly and resistance
free and start building wealth bigger, better and
faster than you ever imagined.

How freakin’ exciting does all of that sound?

Does having the ability to create wealth on demand
sound better than the Black Friday insanity?

If you think so too, Watch This NOW:

Almost a Secret

It’s time to say goodbye to the Black Friday crazies.

It’s time to shop when you want.

It’s time to buy what you want.

It’s time to LIVE how you want.

It starts by watching this NOW:

Almost a Secret

Have an amazing holiday!

Almost a Secret

If you do these things, you will reach your goals...

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

Just wanted to share an email that I got from author, teacher, and screenwriter Steven Barnes...

 "One of the things discussed in 'Think And Grow Rich' is that you must have a definite purpose in life, a specific measurable goal, progress toward which is expressed in continuous action. In other words, you have to be able to say: "These are the tasks I have before me today. These are the things I must do this week. These are the things I must do this month. This quarter. This year. If I do these things, I will reach my goals, goals that will benefit my family, my society, and bring my dearest dreams into existence."  The beautiful thing about this is that if you have done your job properly, you will end up with a list of actions you can take RIGHT NOW, TODAY that will not only bring you closer to your long-term goals, but will benefit you RIGHT NOW, TODAY.  Now, here is where "magic" seems to come in. If you are doing everything you can, today, to take care of your current obligations and needs as well as these actions dovetailing into your long-term purpose, the Universe seems to notice. The instant you are totally committed, and doing everything you can, today, leaving no stone unturned and facing your fears directly...you'll start experiencing the strangest thing. Calls from out of nowhere. Old friends calling with opportunities. Favors you did for people years ago are repaid serendipitiously.  If you haven't experienced it, don't laugh. I'm not hallucinating. One suspects that this is a version of the "if you don't have a job, you can't get a job. Until you get one, at which point people will start offering you jobs."  Or: "if you don't have a boyfriend/girlfriend, you can't get a boyfriend/girlfriend...until you've got one, and then men/women come out of the woodwork, throwing themselves at you."  I have no idea what causes this, but have experienced it, and witnessed it, so many times that there is no longer a shred of doubt about it...but I still forget how it works until I cross a new threshold in my life."

Visit Steve’s blog for a ton of free creative writing tips, movie reviews, and more.

So, now that you know what it takes to GET WHAT YOU WANT....

...there are four things to ask yourself before quitting your day job:

Many people are considering starting or have already started a home based business.  Operating a home based business is not for everyone but if you think you have what it takes to build a successful home based business you have to ask yourself--and truthfully answer--four questions:

 

1.       What will this business add to your life?

 

2.       What is the greatest potential risk associated with this business?

 

3.       What is the greatest potential reward?

 

4.       What obstacles must you overcome to achieve your goal?

How you answer these questions will help you determine whether or not the home based business you're considering is right for you.  For example, let's say you are an introverted, artistic guy with a wife, four kids and a mortgage and you've got a good job but you're thinking about becoming either a free lance photographer or Real Estate Investor. 

Apply these questions to each opportunity and it will be plain to see which the better choice is.

Next to God we are indebted to women, first for life itself, and then for making it worth living. Mary McLeod Bethune
