Hi Rich

This is a great idea although I would recommend toning down the music a little more when people are talking.

I look forward to seeing glimpses of the presentation and I am sorry that I wasn’t able to make it. Still the full videos should be great when they come out.

Paul

Hi Rich,

Great stuff, looks like it will be one of the best events this year. Unfortunately I was not able to come, but my friend is there and I’m sure he will have great time.

Looking forward for the videos

Lasse

Hi Rich,

Cheers

Hi Rich,

You are to be commended. I believe this is one of the most generous things I have seen done on the internet in my six years of being here.

You are PROVING that you want to help others by your actions today, not just saying it.

I hope you start an industry trend here by doing this, as there really is plenty for everyone in this big world we call ‘The Net’.

KUDOS!!

Deb Ling

Looking forward to seeing this, I can’t wait to implement what I see into my business…

Hi Rich,

I wanted to post a Thank You note for enriching myself with the opportunity of adding value into my marketing life.

The information that you provide to many of us gives us an opportunity to make a difference in our lives and our markets!

Thanks for being soooo generous and the role model for us to follow!

Rich,
This is - once again - an unbelievably generous gift, and I think I speak for many when I thank you sincerely. The value of the information that these videos promise is incalculable.
So - just to put this in perspective - these videos, these manifestos, this maven-ship of which you speak - these are the fish that you are giving us, to eat for a day, and that we can catch for a lifetime, if we enroll in your coaching program and learn to catch for ourselves.

P.S. I enjoyed your “Mike Filsaime 7 Figures” moment on page 22.

Hi Rick,

You’ve been selfless in sharing and helping people achieve success. Though I may miss out on this one, I hope to take part in one of your events really soon.

All the best for the event.

Thanks, Rich. As always absolutely generous. I can’t wait to see the clips. Sorry I can’t be there. A bit far from South Africa…

Just a plain “thanks” from “old Europe”!

would not have been able to make it over there (still working on “higher profits”, *lol*) and very much appreciate the possiblity to take a peek without having to move my butt. Hope to see some butt-moving inspiring stuff!

Cheers

Hi Rich!
Thanks for all your interesting material!

I wanted to get the opinion of everyone regarding the following subject:

Suppose, you and your team have developed a great and completely unique unreleased product and you’re running an excellent marketing campaign, with about just a thousand mail subscribers running to be the first to try it out even though you haven’t released any product yet; but as a brand you’re completely new and unknown to the market.

Curiosity is a main factor in your marketing campaign, and you know there are there we’ll be hundreds of people awaiting to try this unique product that will *change everything*. (Similar to Rich’s strategies, the way I perceive it)

Your product has much more features than the rest of your competitors and some unique ones that even don’t exist. And you are planning to set a very accessible price.

What would more intelligent?
a) Fill YouTube with videos about your new ground-breaking product, showing it’s amazing features, and tempting people to buy it.

Offer NO Download Trial, you wouldn’t want to ruin the curiosity factor created by your campaign, and you want to tempt the people to buy Right Now. Considering the market, your price is very accessible (probably $50-$100) and so you think people will be definitely willing to “take the risk”.
You’ll offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee.

Rich does this with his products. He shows you parts of his amazing videos, and makes you wish for the rest. You’re never able to download Rich’s full products and “use them for 15 days” before you make your mind into buying them. So, why wouldn’t you do the same with your products?

Moreover, if you offered a download trial, you’re afraid beginner students could misuse the software and don’t understand it on the first look. It’s much better to show applied case-studies of how to use this amazing software through YouTube videos so that beginner to advanced people can see what the software can really do, before they download it. You know that if You show them the features yourself, before they try it out, they’ll be impressed. no matter their experience on that subject.

b) You decide that it’s not transparent not to offer a download trial. Even though you’ll be showing all the features through YouTube videos, people should be able to try them themselves before they buy it.
Even though you won’t get buyers just because of “curiosity” and “belief” on your product’s promises, the curiosity factor of the campaign will make many people download the trial immediately.

And even not everyone will buy it, you think that considering that much more people will be able to try it, even though the fraction of people that buy it is much less than option (a), you will definitely get more buyers in numbers. You think you’ll probably get more buyers this way, and gain more trust.

As you offer a trial version, you decide not to offer a Statisfaction Guarantee as people will be able to try it before they buy it.

Even you have the appropriate security measure, you wonder if having a trial version will seduce piracy and lose future sales, your software will be more exposed, as in option (a) only buyers would be able to have a full copy.

Will you be missing out the “curiosity” and “want to be the first” buyers that would have bought your product immediately with option a?

c) You prefer to got the Viral Marketing way, and offer a Completely Free version, but with reduced features.

You’ll go through the Gmail way, offering limited exclusive invitations for the people to be the first to try it out and then give each 10 invitations more. Until one/two months later you open it up to the public.

You think that the viral marketing will spread your software throughout the world, and if people like it, they surely want the full featured version and buy it.

But… what if people won’t be impressed by your product as it has many less features, and says, “If I got this for free, why would I pay $60-$100 more to get a more featured version”!? Would they be willing to pay for the fully featured one?

Rich, I think this case study could provide valuable information to your blog, so I hope you enjoyed reading it too. ;o)

Marketing maven experts,
WHAT WOULD YOU DO AND WHY?

Best Regards,
Rod

I know some of the faces that are part of your team of experts and honestly I associate some of them with a lack of integrity and ethics.

For over three years I have read the emails and looked at the web sites. They are all long on promises and very short on delivering anything that is of substance and otherwise useful to anyone. It is about separating people from their money that is what several of the faces are all about

Marketing is a process, I have never seen any of these people elude to that fact. They know selling or at least they think they know that subject but I even have issues with lending credibility to even acknowledging that as a fact.

The idea of holding ones self out as an expert on marketing via any media and in fact being nothing more than at a best a second rate salesman does not create confidence from any individual that has any real education or business experience.

Rich I know you have grabbed on to Jay Abrahams shirt tail, but holding own to his shirt tail is not going to somehow empower you with his knowledge and experience.

Jay Abraham is a known quantity but the philisophy of Warren Buffet is much better. At the end of the day Warren Buffet ties his life together with ethics and integrity, and his life goes much further than money.

There in lies one of life’s great lessons. The lesson? People are as generous and as ethical as they can afford to be.

Several of the people featured as your team of experts obivously cannot afford to put anything of value back into the world. That is not only perception but a reality. Those names I do not have direct knowledge of, I apologize to them up front right now.

I would include my academic and business credentials in this post but the last time I did that, all the people educated under no child left behind took great pleasure in trashing my academic and business credentials and thought I was way over educated because they see them as some sort of threat. People have a tendency to do that when they have no sense of personal pride in themselves because of their lack of even basic academic accomplishments.

Thank you Rich,

I’ll be refreshing the page! Good to have a lok inside.

Franck.

Good Old Frank Kern (grin) Frank is a work of art and a very smart individual. Frank is the type of person I would want in my business if I could afford him. He is truely a gifted individual in a plain brown wrapper (grin) Unpretentious is the term that describes Frank Kern.

Thank you! I love your spirit of generosity. So badly wish I could be there in person, but I’m thrilled to have these blog posts. Looking forward to great things.

Rich,

Wow! What a great surprise indeed. Thank you! The video clip you provided is great, and I can’t wait to keep checking back for more content and impressions from the big show.

Wow, Rich, as someone who is always in search of the best internet marketing strategy, I am really looking forward to the upcoming nuggets. I am a BIG fan of your Attention Age Doctrine.

Your new beginnings Video is all HYPE! I have been a follower of Jay’s for aboout 20 years. He is saying the same thing over and over. Dave

Hi and Thanks again for your generous gifts. You never cease to amaze me with your insight and focus. I look forward to any and all videos. I regret that my tax monies didn’t make it to me in time to book this one but I assure you that I will make every attempt to partake in your next extravaganza. thanks for the help tim jordan

Hi Rich,

Wow, what a pleasant surprise to wake up to on a Sunday morning…

Always a pleasure to plug into your content and rock star ability…

Keep it coming, it’s appreciated always.

Have a blast there, wish I could be there…but hey, I’ll be watching you on TV.

Take care,

Scott

Thanks so much for this. Florida is a long way from home…

I will be tuning in whenever I get the chance.

Hi,

I’m burning to watch these videoclips, but they are not coming up on my screen. I tried on both my Mac and my PC, on Firefox, Safari and Flock, but just a big white space and no video. Any idea what I could do? Anybody else have this problem?

Bob

Hey Rich,
Amazing change to get on board and see the real experts at work. With that kind of line up, it sure sounds like an awesome change to learn from the best.

Looking forward to all the videos. Thanks mate. Sincerely,
John Adams

Hi Rich,

You certainly are putting your money where your mandibles are. Watching you build up right up to the event is certainly a great piece of work in itself.

It has been one gem after another. Just when I thought you’ve ended your marketing salvos, another gem gets thrown at us all, with the flavour of “Here’s something for you, no hard feelings and thank you.”

To me, the report as written with its information is truly far more valuable to me than all your other reports combined. Its the Marketing Matrix Manifesto. It serves as a slap-in-the-face reminder for me. Thank you and Jay Abraham too. (Sorry gentlemen, I haven’t bought from either of you yet. Next time??)

It’s saddens me that I still see/read quite insulting comments made openly for every winner out there. Are these people justifying their own failures? Perhaps they lack the right areas of focus in their lives to achieve their wealth.

There are people that consider the best measure of one’s achievement are the letters attached to one’s name. This recounts the importance of the business world from the part of the world I grew up in.

The paperchase is hugely important, but to identify ourselves, our names are immutable. The attached letters are frequently placed in brackets to denote that these are most definitely not our initials. However, to understand the rest of the world, the attached letters are tolerated and used.

It’s all about the marketing strategy you have demonstrated in the process leading up to this event. There’s always something for everyone.

Take an example like gardening tips which has cross cultural/business applications; if you don’t have a garden, you can use the patio or indoor planting methods; a Feng Shui practitioner may use these tips for their consultations.

So, keep coming with the lessons. I’m listening and watching. And so are the very few nagging ones - their posts are here after all.

I must give your event a miss as I have far too much to deal with to get away including a project I am launching soon. This event must be a fantastic information and deal-fest despite your “no pitch” pitch.

I wish you continued success.

Great health and prosperity,
Stephen Chua.

Sadly I couldn´t see anything, as it didn´t work…

Perhaps something wrong on my computer?

Will come back later…

I too am just getting a big blank area where the video should be. Tried both IE and Firefox on Windows Xp and neither shows the video clip.

Ditto on not seeing any clips.

As always, I appreciate the generous, helpful spirit. Thank you! And you already know I agree with the move to video! Have a terrific event, and thank you for including us. Rush http://www.18monthwealth.com

Hi Rich,
Always one step ahead, you are.
Looking forward to seeing the videos, but alas
not showing up on my screen either.
Patience though…..I’m certain it’s just a glitch.

No clips here to view! Help

Open the flood gates. I’m ready for every nugget of wisdom you let loose.

Thank You!

I’m looking forward to this… particularly John Carlton and Frank Kern.

The clip’s failing to load for me too, both in Firefox and IE
