What’s Happening On November 1st?

Hey Guys,

As you can probably imagine, my office has been getting HAMMERED with phone calls and emails regarding the Final Chapter.

The MAIN question people are asking is, what’s the deal with your next program, and how can I get in?

Up until now, I’ve been TRYING to keep it under wraps.

I REALLY want the ideas from the Final Chapter to resonate with everyone. I want people to take their business to next level.

And I STRONGLY believe the Manifesto trilogy can do tha

t.

The many, many emails and blog posts I’ve seen are FILLED with brilliant observations and insights on how to grow a business.

But since the doors to my office are CAVING in, and my staff is tired of answering the same questions over and over, I need to address the issue RIGHT now, once and for all.

So here’s the OFFICIAL statement:

YES, I’m introducing a new program on November 1st @ 4:00PM Eastern Time (mark your calendars).

…and yes, it’s going to be my best program to date.

Now as you know, I’ve made the transition to working with Agora nearly full time, in addition to working with my current clients.

But there is MASSIVE internal debate going on about the program.

Everyone involved, (Early To Rise, Strategic Profits, and my Internet Marketing Guru friends) ALL have different ideas on how to make this program the greatest program EVER to be offered.

Here’s the main issue, and I’m hoping you can help me out.

The program that is coming up on November 1st is going to be a hybrid program. It’s based off the knowledge and experience of the world’s most successful direct response business, Agora Publishing.

Agora (more specifically Early To Rise) is essentially a goldmine of business building knowledge. I’ve been mining their wisdom for a while, and even with my background and experience, I still can’t find an end to the mine shaft.

So that leads us to the issue at hand. We have what we believe is a VERY strong foundation for an INCREDIBLE program.

It’s called the Internet Wealth Alliance and it’s built around four fundamental principles. Briefly, they are:

1. List & Relationship Building: The cornerstone of any online business that has longevity. We’ll show you the most powerful ways to build a list, from the pros who have more names than any other direct response business in existence. Absolutely no one else can claim that. We’re talking millions and millions of names here.

2. Alliances and Joint Ventures: You can’t do it alone. You need alliance partners to expand the market and to leverage the efforts of others. You understand this already, especially if you’ve read any of my work. But in this program, we’ll show you how to develop powerful alliances, and even facilitate joint ventures between members, and potentially (IF it’s a good fit, Early To Rise).

3. Market Analysis: It’s important to provide the market what they want. This program will teach you how to find and develop your niche, and (this is UNPRECEDENTED) share some of our marketing experiments for you to see what’s hot and what’s not. This program will teach you advanced competitive intelligence, and go into great depth on how to setup a front-end that works. Agora is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars per year on market tests. Sharing some of these results with you is valuable BEYOND calculation.

4. Proven Direct Response Models: To top things off, even if you know how to build a list, in the right niche, and have access to the right joint venture partners, that doesn’t guarantee success. Case in point, the big Internet gurus. Even THEY are doing things backwards. This fundamental cornerstone will teach you how you can build a multimillion dollar profit model that works, and works VERY, VERY well.

So there you have it, the four cornerstones of the program, complete with a panel of experts to guide you through every step of the way.

Everyone I talk to says this program WILL be the HOLY GRAIL of Internet Marketing programs, since it’s grounded in real world experience (and success) that is second to none.

But I STILL need to know one thing in order to feel that this program has everything it needs in order to go down in the history books as a massive success.

What is the ONE question that you absolutely need to have answered, in order for this program to be THE best investment of your life?

Please answer this one question, by commenting below.

More than ever, I am looking forward to your important feedback.

Warm Regards,
Rich Schefren

P.S. As far as the contest goes, you guys are off to a GREAT start. You can learn a TON just from reading all the brilliant responses on the blog. So keep the entries coming. I have a few favorites, but I’ll be looking for a few more over the next several days.

    I believe that the best way to be successful is to role-model winners. Will your program allow me to watch you make the critical marketing decisions that has proved successful for your team?

    I am so new at this business I posted before I finished my response. I just wanted to follow up with a comment about many of the posts here. I see many who are looking for the secret formula. When it’s not about the formula, but how YOU apply it! I am brand new to this industry, in fact I only put up my first web site my-websitevideo.com two days ago. But I can tell you something, and that is that Mr. Schefren is the only person that I have found in this industry that perches a sustainable long term business system philosophy. So I am sure this course will follow his philosophy.

    Awesome material – thanks Rich!

    It seems to me that building an image and branding are very important keys in your business model.

    How do you cater for individuals who do not want to be high-profile, mega-stars in their business/industry – but who do want to create highly profitable, successful businesses applying the prinicples you lay out in the trilogy?

    What do I feel is essential? Not a question but a structure. A reasonably priced mentorship program that in exchange for the lower end start up receives a percentage of future profits of the business established. A variation on the bricks and mortar franchise system.

    Hello and thank you for allowing the opportunity to speak out.

    My questions relate to many I have just scrolled through. I have a new buisness that I am trying to launch and get off the ground. All the information I have seen thus far, from you and others, speaks to existing buisnesses but does not address the new business venture. Actually, the program I began following is the Chinese Trade Secrets, also from Agora Publishing and sold through ‘Early to Rise’. I paid good money for the strategies contained in the program but am now stifled because there is no trouble-shooting or suggested plan “B” approach that indicates what to do if things do not go according to plan – which they have. This is the missing link I find with most programs.

    I have a vision. I know and understand my strengths. I have passion. Resources– I am building relationships with those who have skills or knowledge that will work with me on making my business one of those that draws others forward and helps fill their needs at the same time.
    I know that Angora Publishing, Michael Masterson and yourself Rich have been there and done that. You know what to do and what works. My only question would be When can I start??

  • Michael John

    Yes, I’ve got it Rich, the only question right now is – How much?

    Regards

  • Sam

    Will this program extract ideas; after pinpointing our passion, and guide us in strategically planning to exploit our strengths in this endeavor that will produce a multi-million dollar business?

  • Kim

    How to affordably transition from my current full-time career to this instead?

  • http://my-websitevideo.com Lee Carroll

    In order for Internet Wealth Alliance to be an opportunity of a lifetime, it would need to provide me with the tools to build a self sustaining business, i.e. after proper execution it would run on its own, without me. Will this system give me the tools/system to accomplish this?

  • Shoubhik

    Rich,
    How do I identify my *passion*?

    Because, unless I’m passionate about something, I can’t possibly battle it out in the real world when problems arise.

    Please tell me this ONE thing: WHAT HELPED YOU FIND YOUR PASSION in LIFE?

    Sincerely yours,
    Shoubhik

  • Sidney

    How do I cope with “blind critics” who are always ready with destructive, not constructive criticism?

  • Jay

    Judging from the HUGE interest, and Rich’s reputation, I fear this will be another MEGA$$$$ fee membership.

    There will be no hope for many of us if we cannot afford the pricetag… and if the pricetag is not an entry barrier there will be no hope of “getting in”. Either way… many of us will undoubtedly be left behind.

    This is not a complaint, just reality. And, it is a reality for many who are putting their hard earned money into their online startup.

    Sign me… Hopeful but not holding my breath.

    P.S. – Rich – I hope you’ve figured a way to bring us hard working but financially challenged IM’ers along for the ride.

  • Nina Eldredge

    I’m interested in knowing more about your new release on Wednesday November 1, 2006. I will be in Delray Beach at the AWAI Bootcamp and unable to be in front of my computer. Please advise of an alternate way to find out more. Nina

    I have been on the internet for quite a few years now. However, I still have failed to make any significant income. I am a widow now with a 13 years old girl to support, I have a little money, but not buckets – so to speak. I guess what I would hope for is that I can build a vision, get a business going (really don’t know my passion as such – maybe you could help me with that also, make alliances, etc. like you have in your chart in the Final Chapter. That is what I would hope for. i looked at your other chart (the one with 101 things to do on it) and thought, this is why I seem to be going around in circles – very overwealming to say the least. Where do you start first, then what, and so on. I just seemed to get very overwealmed at it once I get started, that I tend to just leave it for a bit – information overload. (Trying to do too many things at once, probably).

    Hopefully, your new program will not be “out of my reach” as far as money goes, and will be able to “step” me through each process so as I don’t just give up my hands and quit. I am a big reader and follower of “Early to Rise” and I also know your reputation. Hopefully we will see on Friday, I have to work but will check the email when I get home. Thanks bunches and have a terrific day (or afternoon, evening)

    Thanks,

    Since your main Goal is to break all previous record, then I think it’s safe to assume that you would have to price your product between $1,500.00 to $2,500.00 maybe even more. Although I’m one of those that will not be able to afford it I do understand why you would have to price it that way.

    First of all, no matter how much you will end up charging for your product I know it will be worth it and more. I’ve learned so much just by reading your manifesto. I can’t even begin to imagine how much more I can learn from you and ETR-the two giants in the industry.

    The second reason why you would have to price your product high enough is that you wouldn’t want to give the impression that your product is cheap and have less value than all the recent huge product launches by people you have coached. The most recent launch is by Ken McArthur and it’s being sold for $1497.00. Selling your product for less might give the wrong impression about it’s real value.

    My only problem with the pricing issue is that I know I couldn’t afford it at this time. Certainly thousands of other great people wouldn’t be able to afford it too. In a way it’s a shame because you and I know that the industry needs new blood to assure sustainable growth.

    So what should you do to surpass all the other great product launches in recent times? I can’t answer it for you but here are my suggestions:

    1)If you want the quick bucks then go with the high price. Most of those that are already making money online will buy your product in record time.

    2)If you want to broaden your base and bring new blood in the industry to ensure growth then you have to make it affordable to more people.

    But how can you make it affordable without making it cheap? The answer would probably be in the form of membership. You will still end up making the same amount or more but people will have the opportunity to get in with a more affordable monthly payment.

    Of course I’m saying all this for my own good but I’m sure there’s thousands of others that see it the way I do. Since you believe in building a sustainable business with steady growth I know you will agree that what I’m saying does make sense. In the end I know that you are still a much better businessman than I am. I’m just expressing an opinion in hopes that you will see it the way I do so I will have the chance to learn from you.

    I am currently in the BGS program and am loving it! I feel I’m getting tremendous value and focus for the business I’m creating so THANK YOU for what you’re putting out there. I’m in month 4 of the 11 month BGS program. How will this new Alliance program compare to the content and tools you’re already offering in the BGS (which I’m expecting to be delivered through until July 2007)? It’s launching next week (I’m going to be in Delray at the ETR bootcamp so I hope I can hear something about it in person there as I may not be at my computer when you officially launch). Is it going to be redundant? If there’s not a significant overlap in content/tools/concepts, what will be different and how is the value proposition going to be so different that I should make another significant investment in a second program? How will you be able to keep giving the personal attention and focus I’ve so come to value when you launch this second major initiative? Have you given any thought to offering an option for those of us already in the BGS of folding into the new venture if that makes sense? Thanks and I look forward to meeting you at ETR.

    and have support for growth.

  • Gwenda Gail

    Hi Rich,

    There needs to be step by step instructions for every level of marketer, and all of the software needed to support the step by step method all in one package. Now that would be pricless!!!!

    One more thing, if this new program of yours is like the “Holy Grail”, does that mean we will not be able to see it clearly or even know for a fact that it really exists.

  • melinda

    Nobody can predict what this program will cost and if it is any less than $25K, I will be deeply disappointed. Rich knows that he must cut the chaff from the wheat to grow this alliance. We cannot be concerned with those who fall by the wayside. This is wealth building people. Its not for everyone. Only a few of us are entitled to the most valuable information since the stone tablets. Only a very few of us can sit before Rich and listen with the devotion and care required to progress from merely successful to outrageously RICH! For this opportunity, the price should reflect the inherent guarantee that everyone of us will be thoroughly satisfied with the alliance and, like Agora, reap profits in excess of $250M. WE WANT THIS! So let’s get out our checkbooks and prepare for deliverance.There will be nothing like this again in the history of IM. This is THE ONLY possible solution for our success. I do not want a two tiered program as being considered. And nobody here wants to abandon TOTAL ABUNDANCE to offer this alliance at less than its FULLEST potency. It is no accident that Rich’s message was in the form of a trilogy. It is a trinity of remarkable content and the introduction to the holy grail we seek.

    I believe that focusing on standards of ethical and honest marketing behavior is required to bring Internet marketing to the next level. I would like to see a “truth in marketing claims” standard applied to the Internet marketing field.

    What about a voluntary, self-policing system that takes over before government regulators begin crafting “truth-in-advertising” type controls for this industry? Maybe an Internet Marketing Better Business Bureau should be in the works?

    In my research, I find that few of the marketing ploys floating across the Internet ethers meet the standards of ethics and honesty of “regulated” and “audited” print and broadcast media.

    The application of standard marketing “formulas” need:

    * Reliability
    * Validity
    * Transparency
    * Accurate Statements about Assumptions

    Most of the “Offers” that purport to be “cutting edge” marketing are just the sharp shears of “get rich quick” [sic] marketers lightening the fleece of greedy sheep.

    I was able to visit the online eComEXpo(TM) this past week. The quality of the information was superb, and the marketing claims seemed real. Absent were most of the “big names” in marketing hype. Present were people who shared believable information because their information blossomed with facts, pros and cons, disclaimers and multiple sides of the story. Real information…not “formula,” “hype” and “urgency.”

    I don’t know if the “big name marketers” fled this conference because ethical and honesty standards for entry were in place, or whether their experience showed that legitimate business people seldom fall for marketing hype that exemplifies their “expertise.” Because the “hypesters” were elsewhere, the “edge” was missing, and the “cringe” of exaggerated claims was absent. Overall a delightful change of pace from the ordinary “Internet marketing sideshow.”

    In summary, I think that taking Internet marketing to the next level means adopting ethical standards and policing our profession.

    Rich,

    Your work is good and well-thought out. People should know that any venture online is going to take time and effort to market properly. No shortcuts will suffice. In fact, it’s really not that easy to go from $0 to $10,000 per month online with multiple streams of income. I hope you take out as much of the drudge work as possible in your new program. Good luck! Bruce

    Rich,

    i found this mini-site during a fairly selective key phrase search. this is the url, http://www.strategicprofits.com/2006/10/24/announcement/

    Supposedly this means your group (promotes itself to have) much of what i am trying to find, related to e-home business development.

    why does this need to be based on an mlm model of doing business?

    yes, i like what is being said and there is a big buzz. but i need to have something where i do not need to be all agog with excitement most of the time.

    in time i would like to get this thing automated so I have less personal interaction with customers, not more. after a point it is important to me to slow down my personal involvement in getting new customers (i so hate the terms recruiting, downline and training my core group) and still have the business grow.

    It is certainly not my intent to sound negative or defeatist. But at age 56, with medical conditions I no longer have the enthusiasm, desire or energy to keep up with the 20 or 30-somethings. This is especially true if they already have an on-going fast paced business in hand. I’m starting over, from scratch.

    My recent attempt at e-commerce was a failure…mostly my own fault. Inadequately developed concept, poor market research…you know the drill.

    Anyway, since it is past your Nov 1st startup date, i’ll probably be able to find something more current about this promising venture.

    if you have any thoughts (beyond the elementary and obvious stuff)please feel free to call or write.

    thanks for your time
