			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I think about the Internet Marketing game and I look at all of the people who are successful and all of the ones who are not successful, it really all boils down to two types of people.<br />
<br />
There are the ones who talk about wanting to be successful, and then there are the ones who don&#8217;t waste time talking about it, they just go out and do it.<br />
<br />
Here is one of my favorite quotes on this subject:<br />
<br />
&#8220;There&#8217;s two kinds of people in this world when you boil it all down. You got your talkers and you got your doers. Most people are just talkers, all they do is talk. But when it is all said and done, it&#8217;s the doers that change this world. And when they do that, they change us, and that&#8217;s why we never forget them. So which one are you? Do you just talk about it, or do you stand up and do something about it? Because believe you me, all the rest of it is just coffee house and bullshit.&#8221; <b>-Rocco from Boondock Saints II</b><br />
<br />
Let&#8217;s break this down a little bit to help you figure out which one you are&#8230;<br />
<br />
I think that by seeing the characteristics of each type of person you will be able to identify with one of them.<br />
<br />
If you find out that you are mainly someone who is a talker then you will know that you need to maybe work toward the Doer side of things.<br />
<br />
If you find out that you are mainly someone who goes out and does things then you will know that you need to keep doing what you are doing and success will come your way.<br />
<br />
Here we go&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b><u>Talker:</u></b><br />
<br />
A talker in Internet Marketing is someone who does a lot of talking but doesn&#8217;t really say anything. This type of person is the type that says stuff like, &#8220;Man, I&#8217;m gonna get started with that affiliate marketing stuff because I want to make money like you&#8217;re making money.&#8221; but they never get started and all they do is talk about it.<br />
<br />
This type of person also likes to make a lot of excuses for not doing stuff. It&#8217;s almost like they want you to do it for them.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Doer:</u></b><br />
<br />
A doer is someone who will take the information they have and go out and use it. This person will go out and build Squidoo lenses, websites, and other types of web pages and then will go and build links back to them.<br />
<br />
This type of person does not stop to tell you a story about how they couldn&#8217;t do something because their grandmother has died for the 4th time this year.<br />
<br />
This person is actively doing keyword research and searching for new niches to target.<br />
<br />
This person is actively working their business or has hired someone to manage the business for them.<br />
<br />
These are the ones who are successful and who earn the type of income they want want to earn online.<br />
<br />
If you want to be successful with online marketing then you are going to have to be a doer.<br />
<br />
I know there are a lot of programs out right now that promise that all of this stuff is easy and it requires no work, but those programs will not help you make the type of money you want to make (if any money at all).<br />
<br />
The fact is, when you first get started with Internet Marketing, there is a lot of work to be done.<br />
<br />
After a while when you get your income built up to where you want it, you can do whatever you want and it all is easy, but it takes a lot of work to get to that point.<br />
<br />
So, which one are you?<br />
<br />
Are you a talker or are you a doer?<br />
<br />
I am a doer!<br />
<br />
It is the things that I have done and put in place over the past few years that have helped me to be as successful as I am with Internet Marketing these days.<br />
<br />
One of the first things I ran across when I was starting out with online marketing was this:<br />
<br />
&#8220;Live like no one else so that you can live like no one else&#8221;<br />
<br />
That means if you are willing to do things that people talk about doing then you can live like they are not living because you will have more than them.<br />
<br />
I sacrificed a lot of Friday and Saturday nights with my family and friends to get to the point that I am at.<br />
<br />
I&#8217;m not suggesting that everyone else do the same, but if I wouldn&#8217;t have made those sacrifices then I would not have been able to reach the level of success that I am at today.<br />
<br />
However, if you are used to going out and partying and having fun on Friday and Saturday night then you might consider staying in one weekend a month or so and working on your internet business.<br />
<br />
Bottom line&#8230;<br />
<br />
If you want to reach the level of success that you have in mind, you have to stop talking about it and start doing it.<br />
<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey there, how&#8217;s it going today? I just wanted to stop by real quick and give you an update on how the product that I am working on creating is going. When I first started out creating this product I had in mind that I was going to write an ebook and do a few videos, but once I started working on it, I realized that there is a lot more that I want to include in the product. Therefore, it is going to take a little bit longer than I thought.<br />
<br />
Most of the Internet Marketing gurus that create products either have someone create the product for them or they slap the product together as fast as they can and it turns out like crap.<br />
<br />
As I&#8217;ve mentioned before, I am not a guru. That means I am creating this product to show people the things I do, the things I know, and the things I have found to work.<br />
<br />
<b>The things I am going to be showing you how to do in this product will literally change your life! </b><br />
<br />
I am not only going to show you how I made over $2000 in 2 days with 1 hour of work on Black Friday and Cyber Monday but I am also going to show you how I make money online the rest of the year.<br />
<br />
Right now I am working with two of my family members who have never done affiliate marketing or tried to make money on the internet.<br />
<br />
I am planning to put a little bit of the video footage into the product. That way the people who are brand new to Internet Marketing will be able to see that there&#8217;s nothing to it.<br />
<br />
If I can get these two family members to making money then I know that I will be able to help everyone who reads my blog.<br />
<br />
Most of the product will be done through video. That way I can show you what to do instead of just telling you what to do.<br />
<br />
When I was an Internet Marketing newbie, I learned a lot more when someone showed me what to do. I also built a lot more confidence that I could do it by having someone show me.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I just wanted to stop by and keep you updated on how the product is coming along. I will stop by again soon with another update soon.<br />
<br />
To Success,<br />

</p>
<h2>The Story</h2>
<p>What if I told you that you could make $1500 in a week? What if you only had to do a couple of hours work to make that $1500? Sound too good to be true?<br />
<br />
That&#8217;s what I would have thought 3 years ago when I first got started with Internet Marketing. However, these days, I&#8217;m starting to find out that it is very true and it is very real.<br />
<br />
I want to share a story with you about how I made $2000 in 2 Days by selling affiliate products at Amazon.com.<br />
<br />
So there I was, sitting around the house on a lazy Saturday after Black Friday, and I was thinking about how I did during Black Friday Deals Week on Amazon.<br />
<br />
I had made two or three times more money during that week than I had the previous year.<br />
<br />
I started thinking about all of the things I did to get ready for marketing products for Black Friday sales on Amazon, and I realized that I had not really done that much.<br />
<br />
In fact, most of the sales I made were from things I had done a day or two before Black Friday.<br />
<br />
Then it occurred to me that Cyber Monday was going to be here in only 2 days!<br />
<br />
What&#8217;s worse is&#8230;<br />
<br />
I didn&#8217;t even have anything ready for Cyber Monday. In fact, I hadn&#8217;t even checked around to find out who was having the best deals, what was going to be on sale or anything! I was going to be screwed!<br />
<br />
At that point I started thinking harder about the things I had done on Black Friday, and that is when I realized that in all actuality I had only put in about 20 minutes worth of work.<br />
<br />
So I started talking to my mom about my situation and while I was doing that I started thinking out loud&#8230;<br />
<br />
I thought, &#8220;Heck! If I can get the kind of results I got on Black Friday by only doing 20 minutes worth of work, then I can do about an hour of work and get triple the results!&#8221;<br />
<br />
That is exactly what I did!<br />
<br />
I woke up on Sunday morning and found that my sales were already increasing from the work I had done a day before.<br />
<br />
Then, on Monday, I woke up to check my stats and got a very nice surprise!<br />
<br />
I had sold 243 items in one day!!!<br />
<br />
What&#8217;s even better&#8230;These were not cheap items that people only spent a couple of dollars on.<br />
<br />
No! These were expensive digital cameras, Various Versions of Kindle, LCD TVs, Video Game Systems, and a lot of other big ticket items! I was jacked!<br />
<br />
When I started adding up the commission that I had made from that one day of sales it totaled up over $1000!!!<br />
<br />
At that point I was thinking, &#8220;Wow! $1000 for 1 hour of work!?!&#8221;<br />
<br />
Then something even better happened!<br />
<br />
On Tuesday, I woke up to check my stats&#8230;<br />
<br />
I had sold 221 items on Cyber Monday!<br />
<br />
Once again, these were big ticket items which meant big commissions for each sale!<br />
<br />
I started adding up the commissions again and found out that I had made over $1000 again!<br />
<br />
At this point I was thinking, &#8220;Wow! $2000 for 1 hour of work!?! I could get used to this!&#8221;<br />
<br />
Now I realize that $2000 is not a lot of money to some people, but for a full time college student with 2 kids, $2000 is great money! Especially when I only had to do 1 hour of work to get it.<br />
<br />
I am sitting here on a Wednesday morning writing this blog post and reflecting back on the weekend I just had, and I have been thinking about the amount of work I had to do in order to make the kind of money I just made.<br />
<br />
That got me thinking about my family and friends who read this blog.<br />
<br />
If I am making this kind of money then I want everyone who reads my blog to make this kind of money.<br />
<br />
So, what I have decided to do is create an ebook detailing all of the steps I took to make as many sales as I did on Amazon.<br />
<br />
I am going to sell this ebook for a little bit of money (probably $7) and I promise it will be worth every penny you pay for it.<br />
<br />
I am going to have videos that go along with the book that will show you how to do the things that you will need to do. It will be like looking over my shoulder as I guide you down the path to doing everything exactly the way I do it.<br />
<br />
If you have been reading my blog for a little while then you have likely read the post where I talk about <u><a href="http://jefferysherwood.com/why-internet-marketing-gurus-piss-me-off/">how much I dislike Gurus</a></u>.<br />
<br />
I am not a Guru!<br />
<br />
I keep things simple and straight to the point. I don&#8217;t like products that make you more confused than you already are.<br />
<br />
I like products that show you what to do rather than tell you what to do.<br />
<br />
Everything I write and everything I do on video for this product will be easy to understand, and even if you have never done anything online you will be able to learn how to be a great affiliate marketer once you have gone through the product.<br />
<br />
Oh yeah, by the way, the method I will be teaching in the product is not something that can only be used on Black Friday and Cyber Monday&#8230;It can be used any time of the year!<br />
<br />
I will be giving away a few copies for FREE in exchange for reviews that will be posted on the sales page for the product once it is available. If you are interested in getting a copy in exchange for a review then make sure to get signed up on my email list for details.<br />
<br />
I will keep you up to date on how the product is coming along soon!<br />
<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are in a network marketing business or any other type of business that markets products to others then you might be familiar with team building. It is very important that you take the time to build a good solid team around you if you want to be successful in the business you are in.<br />
<br />
For years, I have been doing this Internet Marketing &#8220;thing&#8221; on my own. I build all of my own websites, I write all of my own content, and I do all of my link building myself. That means I do not have to rely on a team of people to help me with everything I do as an affiliate and a freelancer online.<br />
<br />
When I joined ViSauls to promote the Body By Vi Challenge as a distributor, I started learning a little bit about how to build a team effectively. I am now developing new skills that are going to help me to be successful while helping others to reach the level of success they want to achieve.<br />
<br />
That got me thinking&#8230;<br />
<br />
Maybe there are some people who are reading my blog that could benefit from some of the things I am learning about the importance of team building.<br />
<br />
I have learned about team building in the business classes I take in school, but have never had the opportunity to teach someone else the things I know.<br />
<br />
So, I decided since there might be people out there who can benefit from learning how to build a good team and since I want a chance to put my education and experience to practice, why not do a blog post and help someone out?<br />
<br />
The network marketing business I am currently working with is called <b><u><a href="http://mybodyvi.myvi.net">ViSalus Sciences</a></u></b>. Basically, what I do as a distributor is promote the challenge to those who are looking for a way to lose weight, get healthy, reach their fitness goals, and make money.<br />
<br />
The company also offers free challenge kits to those who get 3 of their friends to join the challenge.<br />
<br />
There are basically three types of people who want to get involved with ViSalus and taking the 90 day Body By Vi Challenge.<br />
<br />
The first type of person basically wants to do the challenge to lose weight, get healthy, or reach their fitness goals. This person will usually enroll on my team as a customer who only wants to use the product to transform his/her body.<br />
<br />
The second type of person is a person who wants to take the challenge and they want to get their challenge kit for free by referring others to take the challenge with them. This person will join my team as a customer but will be helping me to make money from the customers that are referred through them.<br />
<br />
The third type of person is one who wants to create a business by becoming a distributor. This is the type of person that is most important when you are building your team. As a distributor you not only have the opportunity to make money from your personal sales and referrals but you have the opportunity to make money from the sales made by distributors on your team.<br />
<br />
Starting out, a distributor needs to have three other distributors on their team.<br />
<br />
This is where the first part of my experience as well as my education can help benefit you.<br />
<br />
When you are looking for the first few members of your team there are certain types of people and certain characteristics you want to be looking for.<br />
<br />
You want to have someone who is motivated and wants to do his/her part to help the team to be successful.<br />
<br />
If a person that you choose for your team is not motivated then chances are you are going to get very low production out of this person. This is what people call &#8220;Dead Weight&#8221; and nobody wants to be dragging a bunch of dead weight around.<br />
<br />
You also want people on your team who are teachable. Sometimes people think that just because someone is knowledgeable it means they are easy to work with and will be successful. That is not always the case&#8230;<br />
<br />
If someone is not teachable then you are going to have a hard time getting them to follow the system that you have in place.<br />
<br />
From my example of working with ViSalus&#8230;If someone I choose to join my team and be one of my key players was not teachable, then I am going to have a hard time getting that person to be productive within my team. That person might be the type that has their own ideas about how things should be done regardless of how much documentation I have that the system works if it is used properly.<br />
<br />
More importantly, this person will not be able to teach the distributors that join on his/her team how to do the system because they have not taken the time to learn it and put it into practice. This could corrupt the whole team if the person was placed in one of the top spots on your team.<br />
<br />
I don&#8217;t know about you, but that is not the type of person I want to have on my team.<br />
<br />
One other thing you should look for in people you choose for your team is someone who has good communication skills. No matter what you are doing, you are going to have to communicate with someone at some point in time.<br />
<br />
If you choose people for your team that have poor communication skills or just do not like talking to people, then it is going to be hard to work with that person. You will spend most of your time guessing what is going on because that person will not communicate with you effectively.<br />
<br />
If I chose someone who was afraid to talk to people or who just did not like talking to people then I would have a hard time getting that person to perform and they would again be &#8220;dead weight&#8221; to me. They would not be out talking to people about the challenge that is sweeping the nation, and that is what we work on doing everyday as a team.<br />
<br />
It is very important to put good team members on your team. I watch people all day long put people on their team because they have money to invest. This is not the right way to build a team!<br />
<br />
The most important thing to remember when you are building a team is to put someone on it who is going to work the business. You want that person to be as passionate about the business they are involved in as you are.<br />
<br />
I hope you will put these tips to practice when you are building a team around you. Make sure the people you choose to work with are ones that fit the characteristics that will best serve your team, and make sure that each person on the team wants to be successful. If you do these things then you will be able to build a solid team that will help you have a solid business.<br />
<br />
<b>I am looking for people to join my team at ViSalus promoting the Body By Vi Challenge. Keep in mind though, I am not just looking for anybody who wants to join. I am looking for individuals who want to help other people with their weight loss, health, and fitness goals while making decent income and driving a free BMW. If you think you have what it takes, shoot me an email mybodyvi@myvi.net or sign up here: http://www.mybodyvi.myvi.net<br />
If you are one of the lucky people who become a part of my team then I will help you all that I can to reach the level of success you want to achieve.<br />
<br />
&#8220;The future belongs to those who see possibilities before they become obvious.&#8221;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey there friends, family, and other random people reading my blog right now! I have some new news to share with you today.<br />
<br />
About 3 weeks ago I was presented with this amazing Network Marketing business opportunity that I immediately fell in love with.<br />
<br />
Not only is this a physical product that can be marketed both online and offline&#8230;<br />
<br />
Not only is there a kick butt compensation plan&#8230;<br />
<br />
Not only is it a super HOT niche that will always be around&#8230;<br />
<br />
But it also makes me feel good!<br />
<br />
There are so many things I love about being an Independent Distributor with <a href="http://mybodyvi.myvi.net" target="_blank">ViSalus Sciences</a> and I can&#8217;t wait to share all of them with you.<br />
</p>
<h2><u>Why I Chose to Become an Independent Distributor With ViSalus Sceinces</u></h2>
<p>
It all started when my girlfriend was looking for a weight loss product to help her lose weight after having our son Elias.<br />
<br />
She was looking into all sorts of products, but it seemed like all of them were either too expensive or had some nasty side effects.<br />
<br />
While she was comparing the different products we decided to join a gym.<br />
<br />
The gym we joined had a deal where you could meet with a personal trainer to get a consultation that would help you to set your weight loss goals, fitness goals, and other types of goals that you might have, so we made an appointment to speak with one of the trainers.<br />
<br />
When she first went for her consultation the trainer told her about the <a href="http://mybodyvi.bodybyvi.com" target="_blank">Body By Vi 90 Day Challenge</a> that everyone has been successfully losing weight with.<br />
<br />
We really didn&#8217;t think about it too much at first because we had never heard of ViSalus or any type of 90 day challenge that was going on.<br />
<br />
I went in the next day for my consultation with the personal trainer and the trainer told me about ViSalus as a way to put on some extra muscle.<br />
<br />
I told him that Dee had told me all about it and we were thinking about it.<br />
<br />
After talking to him for a few more minutes I found out that everyone who takes the Body By Vi Challenge is eligible to win some AWESOME prizes!<br />
<br />
This company sends people to Hollywood for transformation vacations that include all types of events that are unbelievable.<br />
<br />
Plus, if Dee took the challenge she would be able to get hers for free as long as she recommended 3 people to take the challenge and they chose a kit that was equal or greater value than hers.<br />
<br />
The trainer began asking me what I did that was keeping me up so late and causing me to get up so late in the day.<br />
<br />
After he found out that I am an Internet Marketer and that I am an Entrepreneur he told me about another aspect of ViSalus that changed things for me.<br />
</p>
<h3><u>ViSalus Distributor Options</u></h3>
<p>
He told me about the business opportunity that was available if I wanted to promote the Body By Vi Challenge to other people.<br />
<br />
I could buy in on one of 3 plans that provided me with a number of great options.<br />
<br />
If I just wanted to get my feet wet, I could join in on the $49 Distributor Kit.<br />
<br />
This would allow me to make a residual income from the people I refer to the challenge.<br />
<br />
The next kit up is the $499 Distributor Kit.<br />
<br />
That allows me to build a team of distributors that I could work with to build a successful network marketing business.<br />
<br />
I will also be allowed to make money from the customers they refer, the distributors they refer, and the customers and distributors that I personally refer.<br />
<br />
Also, with the $499 kit you get over $500 in products that you can either sell, use for demonstration, or give away as samples to potential customers that want to join the challenge.<br />
<br />
The last kit is $999 and the only difference between that kit and the $499 kit is that it comes with 25 sample packs and 50 taster packs to help you get off to a fast start.<br />
<br />
I bought in on the $499 Distributor Kit, got my products, and immediately started building my team so that I could make my $499 investment back.<br />
<br />
I am still in the process of trying to find some people who are interested in being a part of my team.<br />
<br />
I could sit here and talk about the Amazing compensation plan all day, but I have some other resources that can do it better than me.<br />
<br />
There are 8 Ways to get paid with ViSalus and I think if I tried to explain them myself I wouldn&#8217;t be able to do it justice.<br />
<br />
Instead, I want you to watch this video below and get a full understanding of how easy it is to earn money when you start your own ViSalus Network Marketing Business.<br />
<br />
Oh Yeah&#8230;I almost forgot, there is a BMW Bonus that is available once you reach the level of Regional Director. You will find out more about it by watching the video below.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey, how&#8217;s it going today? Hopefully by now you have had a chance to watch the <u><a href="http://squidoo.com/amazon-keyword-research">Amazon Keyword Research</a></u> video and the <u><a href="http://jefferysherwood.com/how-to-build-a-squidoo-lens/">How to Build a Squidoo Lens</a></u> video that I created recently.<br />
<br />
If you haven&#8217;t&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b>What are you waiting for? </b><br />
<br />
Anyway, watch the videos and learn how to build a Squidoo lens for each Amazon product you are interested in promoting.<br />
<br />
Today, I want to tell you what you can do after you have that first Squidoo lens created.<br />
<br />
<b>Are you on Facebook? </b><br />
<br />
If so, then I want to tell you about the Squidoo lens group that a friend of mine over at  <b><u><a href="http://www.squidoolenscreationservice.com/">Squidoo Lens Creation Service</a></u></b> started.<br />
<br />
It is a group of people who build/have Squidoo lenses that they want to get boosted to the top.<br />
<br />
It works by posting the Squidoo lenses you have created to the group and telling everyone to give them a thumbs up, tweet them, Facebook them, and comment on them.<br />
<br />
When you have a lot of people doing those things it will give your lens a boost in Squidoo and&#8230;<br />
<br />
It will likely give it a boost in Google as well.<br />
<br />
<b>But wait&#8230;</b><br />
<br />
The group only functions well if everyone participates.<br />
<br />
That means everyone has to do their part in giving everyone else a thumbs up and all of the other bells and whistles.<br />
<br />
Plus, it&#8217;s just good Karma and being a good group member.<br />
<br />
<b>Are you in?<br />
<br />
<i>If so, you can check the group out here: <u><a href="http://www.facebook.com/groups/134766053284231/">Facebook Squidoo Lens Group</a></u> </i></b><br />
<br />
Not only will you be able to get people to give your Squidoo lenses a boost but&#8230;<br />
<br />
You will be able to learn some pretty cool tips and tricks from other Lensmasters.<br />
<br />
Think about it&#8230;<br />
<br />
While you are giving all of these lenses a thumbs up and all of the other stuff, you get the opportunity to check out their work.<br />
<br />
<b>You will also be able to check out the lenses that I have put together (I&#8217;m a very active member) and ask me any questions you want about them. </b><br />
<br />
I will tell you how I found the keywords that I used&#8230;<br />
<br />
How I made the lens look different than the other lenses you see&#8230;<br />
<br />
I will tell you anything you want to know and if I don&#8217;t do a good job of telling you through an email or blog post&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b>I will make a video about it. </b><br />
<br />
If you are someone who is ready to build your first lens and take it straight to the top then&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b>You have to join the group! </b><br />
<br />
Here&#8217;s the link again: </p>
<p>http://www.facebook.com/groups/134766053284231</p>
<p>
If you have trouble getting in then send me a friend invite on Facebook and I will add you.<br />
<br />
<b>I look forward to seeing you all over there! </b><br />
<br />
To Success,<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever thought about using YouTube to promote CPA offers?<br />
<br />
<b>Don&#8217;t do it! </b><br />
<br />
I just did a test to see if a strategy that I recently learned works or not and&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b><i>The Results Are In!</i></b><br />
<br />
I can&#8217;t really go into detail about the strategy the guy was teaching (nor do I really want to)<br />
<br />
But&#8230;<br />
<br />
I can tell you that it sounded good enough for me to try it.<br />
<br />
I can also tell you that it does not work.<br />
<br />
One other thing I can tell you is what I did during the test.<br />
<br />
I found a video I thought I could get a lot of views from&#8230;<br />
<br />
I then went over to <a href="http://savevid.com">SaveVid.com</a> and saved the video to my hard drive.<br />
<br />
Once I had it saved I uploaded it to two different YouTube accounts.<br />
<br />
I was able to get over 5,000 views in under 24 hours between the two channels combined.<br />
<br />
That was just uploading it, giving it a good title, description, tags, and adding in links for a CPA product that was related to the video.<br />
<br />
I didn&#8217;t send my email list out an email&#8230;<br />
<br />
I didn&#8217;t send out a bulletin from my YouTube accounts&#8230;<br />
<br />
All I did was sit there and watch the views come in.<br />
<br />
I then kept a careful eye on my statistics in my CPA account.<br />
<br />
I started seeing clicks come in slowly but surely, but I knew something was wrong right away.<br />
<br />
The video was getting thousands of views but only a small percentage of those people were clicking on my links.<br />
<br />
I know from experience that the links should have been getting clicked a lot more than they were&#8230;<br />
<br />
And&#8230;<br />
<br />
The worst part is the offer was not converting at all!<br />
<br />
I still have them up and the last time I checked one account has over 1700 views and the other account has over 3700 views.<br />
<br />
I still have the video up so you can check for yourself&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b><u><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q3JwcV9YKo">Video #1</a><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4kU_AsD93A">Video #2</a></u></b><br />
<br />
With all of those views I only have 33 clicks on the CPA product offer!<br />
<br />
I believe this is enough evidence to sufficiently say that promoting CPA offers on YouTube is not worth mine or your time.<br />
<br />
Oh yeah, just to make sure that my test wasn&#8217;t biased I uploaded 5 more videos and did the exact same thing with them.<br />
<br />
One word&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b>FAIL!</b><br />
<br />
If you are wondering why one video has twice as many views as the other it&#8217;s because I&#8217;m not as popular as <b><u><a href="http://diemondave.com">Diemon Dave</a></u></b> <img src='http://jefferysherwood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
<br />
Until Next Time-<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey, how&#8217;s it going? Do you remember when I did that video on <u><a href="http://squidoo.com/amazon-keyword-research">how to find Amazon keywords</a></u> and I told you that I would be doing a follow up video showing you what to do with the keyword we found?<br />
<br />
Well&#8230;<br />
<br />
<b>That video is now ready! </b><br />
<br />
If you have not watched the Amazon keyword video then you will definitely want to watch it before you watch the video on how to create Squidoo lenses (you might be a little lost otherwise).<br />
<br />
So&#8230;<br />
<br />
I know you are probably wondering what the video is about right?<br />
<br />
I know you know that it is about how to build a Squidoo lens, but there are other things that it is about as well.<br />
<br />
In the video I will take you step-by-step through everything that I do as well as throw in a few tips that you will want to use when you build your lenses.<br />
<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://jefferysherwood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Barcode-to-jefferysherwooddotcom.png"><img src="http://jefferysherwood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Barcode-to-jefferysherwooddotcom.png" alt="" title="Website Barcode" width="100" height="100" class="alignright size-full wp-image-341" /></a>Have you been noticing those website barcodes that businesses are using for SmartPhone users? Today I am going to show you how to get one for your website.<br />
<br />
I just want to tell you a little bit about these barcodes before I tell you where to go get one so that you will know how they work and how you can use them.<br />
<br />
When someone sees your barcode on a business card, flyer, envelope, or anything else you want to print it out on, they will be able to scan it with their SmartPhone.<br />
<br />
Once they have scanned it the barcode will take them to your website. It is very quick and very easy for people to do and a lot of businesses are starting to use it.<br />
<br />
I have been using it on my business card here lately and love the reaction that I have been getting. I haven&#8217;t handed someone a business card recently and not gotten a reaction like, &#8220;That is so Awesome!&#8221; since I started using my barcode on the back of it.<br />
<br />
Now, how can you get your website barcode?<br />
<br />
Well, just like we turn to Google for everything else, we are going to turn to them again.<br />
<br />
They have a link shortening service called <a href="http://goo.gl">goo.gl</a> that you will be able to use to get your barcode for free.<br />
<br />
If you have a Google account then you will have to sign in so that you can get your barcode as well as see the stats of the people who click on your short link if you are using it.<br />
<br />
Once you get to the page where your barcode is located all you have to do is right click on the barcode and &#8220;view image&#8221;<br />
<br />
After you have done that you will want to right click on the barcode once more and click on &#8220;save image&#8221;<br />
<br />
Once you have it saved to your computer all you have to do is find a place to use it.<br />
<br />
You can use it on stationary, envelopes, flyers, or do like I did and put it on your business card.<br />
<br />
If you get creative you will be able to find a lot of different places to use your barcode to get some new visitors over to your website.<br />
<br />
I am currently working on the next video in the series that I am creating so make sure to keep your eyes open for it. I will be telling my email subscribers about it before I tell anyone else, so if you want to get the latest information before it comes out then make sure you are on the list.<br />
<br />
To Success,<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey there! How&#8217;s it going today? It&#8217;s always good in my neck of the woods but today it&#8217;s even better!<br />
<br />
Why is today better?<br />
<br />
Because I am finally going to share with you something that I have been wanting to share for a long time.<br />
<br />
I am going to show you how I make money online!<br />
<br />
I have been promising my friends and family that I would show them some stuff when I got a chance, and I finally got that chance.<br />
<br />
Now, before you get too excited&#8230;<br />
<br />
I have only recorded one video so far.<br />
<br />
However, that one video is in my opinion one of the most important things that you need to know in order to make any kind of money online.<br />
<br />
What am I talking about?<br />
<br />
You guessed it! Keyword research.<br />
<br />
I have mentioned it before but it&#8217;s worth mentioning again&#8230;<br />
<br />
If you don&#8217;t target the right keywords then you are not going to be able to make money no matter what you are promoting.<br />
<br />
Either you will not get enough traffic to make any sales<br />
<br />
Or&#8230;<br />
<br />
The keyword you choose will be too competitive for you to get listed high enough in the search engines to get any traffic.<br />
<br />
I think you are going to be excited about this video&#8230;<br />
<br />
I am not only telling you how to find a keyword<br />
<br />
I am Showing you how to find an Amazon keyword.<br />
<br />
In the video I walk you through the process I go through when I am trying to find a new Amazon product to promote.<br />
<br />
I choose a product, find an Awesome keyword for that product, show you some ways that you can analyze the competition, and a lot more.<br />
<br />
Got 15 minutes to spare?<br />
<br />
Take a look at the video and content I have put together to go along with it on my new <b><u><a href="http://www.squidoo.com/amazon-keyword-research">Amazon Keyword Research Squidoo Lens</a></u></b> (don&#8217;t laugh it&#8217;s not finished yet).<br />
<br />
I have decided that when I make one of these videos I am going to also build a Squidoo lens to go along with it.<br />
<br />
That way the content will be easier for you to read and it will be easier for you to learn the information that I am sharing.<br />
<br />
Plus&#8230;<br />
<br />
I just love making Squidoo lenses and want to show you how effective they are to use no matter what you are doing with affiliate marketing or any type of Internet Marketing.<br />
<br />
So, hop on over to my Squidoo lens and check out the video and other information and let me know what you think.<br />
<br />
I know you are going to be an Amazon Super Affiliate before long!<br />
<br />
I&#8217;m rootin&#8217; for ya!<br />
<br />
To Success,<br />
