By now you know I am holding the world's FIRST EVER Joe Vitale Spiritual Marketing Super Summit in Austin, TX January 15-18, 2004. It could show you how to make $1,000,000 in 2004. It reveals what's missing in marketing. It will end self-sabotage forever. Only 100 can attend. I'd love to see you there. For details, see --

INSPIRING: Amy Janota came to see me a few months ago. She wanted to meet me, had questions about making money online, lived near by, and seemed sincere. I agreed. We met and had a great visit.

After she left, we stayed in touch. Because she wanted to know how to make money online, I urged her to find a topic she loved and to write an e-book about it.

At first she had no idea what to write about. We explored ideas and options. She mentioned she taught herself how to play the guitar. When I probed, I discovered she had created her own method for playing the guitar---a method anyone could use to learn how to play in just two days.

That's right: Two days.

I thought that might make a good e-book. :)

Amy then read the e-book Jim Edwards and I wrote at http://www.7dayebook.com That got her creative juices flowing and gave her a plan of action.

Well, Amy worked on her e-book, then her website, and then her sales letter. Yes, she had many doubts along the way. I thought she was going to give up more than once.

But I stayed on her. I kept reminding her that her project was worth a shot, that if she never did anything with it, she'd never know for sure what would happen. As a result of this persistence, her project is now done and ready for the world.

BUT!

But just before she wanted to announce her site --- just two days ago --- she found out someone had trademarked the very title she wanted to use on her site and on her ebook.

Yikes!

She wrote me in a panic. She needed a new title. We brainstormed ideas and came up with---

And she opened her site for business just THIS morning. You're the first to hear of it.

The lesson for all of us is that there is often gold in your own backyard. Look to your hobbies, your skills, your passions, and your interests, to discover something you can turn into a project people will buy.

And don't let "problems" stop you. Use them as fuel to move you forward, toward your dream of financial independence.

Yes, Amy had me to e-tutor her. But you can have me AND another net expert to help you --- and at no charge.

Joel Christopher and I spent hours on two phone calls answering every conceivable question there is about how to make money online without a product, or a list, or even a clue. (Amy had listened to our calls, too.) And our answers are available at no charge at: http://www.MakeMoneyFromScratch.com

Note: When you check out, you'll notice a ZERO CHARGE for listening to our audios online. There is only a charge if you want the multimedia version (which is incredible) or if you want resale rights. http://www.MakeMoneyFromScratch.com

And if you want even more help in deciding what your e-product should be, get this new e-book called "Striking It Niche."

It reveals 70 high-demand, low competition niche businesses you can start on the Internet right now... and quietly rake in untapped profits.

You can do this, you know.

Take a lesson from Amy, and go for your dreams.

And if all you can think of are excuses why this won't work for you, too, then please see --- click here to read this article.

That's where you'll find the #1 thing people do wrong. Again, it's at -- click here.

CORRECTION: Last month I raved about -- and am still raving about -- the clever programmable name-tag called Flash Tag. You wear it and it broadcasts a catchy red scrolling message of your choice. At the time I didn't know who made them. I do now. These people are terrific. See http://www.SignWaveZ.com

LESSON: On my flight from LA to Austin, after attending Mark Joyner's fantastic Free Agent Path double party, I had a remarkable insight.

I was browsing a copy of "Dupont Registry of Luxury Cars" when I saw a new type of ad that looked truly hypnotic. The ad was for an adult product for men. I neither need or want it, but what caught my eye was the layout for it.

It looked like an advice column you might find in any newspaper or magazine. The "letter" to the columnist was in italics and stated a problem. The answer was in regular type and revealed a product that solved the problem. The result was a captivating ad.

While this ad format is a cousin to the famous "advertorial" style --- where an ad looks like a magazine article --- this "ad-vice" format works very well, too.

The next time you want to run an ad, or need to design a website, consider making it look like an advice column.

Use the question area to explain the problem your readers are having. Use the advice area to recommend your product or service. You may capture a whole new world of readers and buyers with this approach.

For the record, I later saw the same ad in "Rolling Stone" and "Muscle and Fitness" magazines. As a rule of thumb, the more you see the same ad, the more it is working.

Take my advice and try the ad-vice format. :)

NOTE: Everyone and his brother (and sister) keeps inviting me to join this site. None of them realize I am ALREADY a member of it. Well, maybe you aren't aware of it yet. If so, go see -- http://www.masterytv.biz/mrfire

UNUSUAL: I met so many wonderful people at Mark Joyner's Farewell Party in LA that I don't know where to start. One person stood out in the crowd because of his hat.

That's right, his hat.

It was a cowboy hat made out of wood.

Yes, wood.

The hat is hand made from real wood. You can wear it, as this gent did in LA, or you can put it on display.

I marvel at the creativity of the human mind.

Don't you?

GIFT IDEA: Do you like chocolate?

Bob Wagner does. He read the e-book Jim Edwards and I wrote at 7dayebook.com and wrote a book on chocolate that is simply, well, delicious.

He then listened to the advice Joel Christopher and I gave at http://www.MakeMoneyFromScratch.com and put up his own website and started marketing his e-book. The result is something you gotta go see.

It's at http://www.chocolate-passions.com/

Can't you do something like this, too?

If Amy and now Bob can do it, so can you.

BEST BOOK OF THE MONTH: Grab a copy of "Body of Truth: Leveraging What Consumers Can't or Won't Say" by Dr. Dan Hill. It's probably the most stimulating marketing book I've read in months.

The current trend online is to take a survey to find out what prospects want and then create a product that answers their need.

The problem is, most people don't know what they want or need. They'll tell you one thing on a survey, but when you actually give them what they say they wanted, they don't buy it.

Why not?

Because their needs are usually below their own conscious awareness.

That's why you need "Body of Truth."

Hill's book is all about mapping the unconscious. As you know from all my hypnotic-this and hypnotic-that line of e-books, I am a firm believer that you have to speak to the unconscious in a person to get them into a buying trance. Hill agrees, and extends that thought to say we need to engage a person's entire body, not just their conscious mind, to sell them.

For example, when it comes to how to price your product or service, he writes:

"Price is not in any psychological list of basic human needs. Worth is, but that's a translation that gains its power and relevance once we've actually experienced the offer. Not surprisingly, price lacks in either sensory or emotive linkage."

In short, when it comes to pricing, focus on communicating the value of your product or service in a memorable way, and price will never be an issue.

"Body of Truth" is rich, provocative reading. I don't know the author (yet) but I sure admire his book.

Get it at Amazon or any good book store.

TIP: Speaking of good books, be sure to read "The Power of Persuasion," a hypnotic work by psychologist Robert Levine. It's being hailed as the successor to Cialdini's classic work on influence.

Levine studied everyone from magicians to con artists to discover how they so easily manipulate us. And don't think you don't need his book. His first chapter is titled, "The Illusion of Invulnerability."

Read this one to better protect yourself, as well as to better understand the process of persuasion and influence.

Along the same lines, but more detailed and scholarly, is "The Psychology of Judgment and Decision Making" by Scott Plous.

Read it to understand the black holes in your own mind.

Find both at Amazon or any book store.

TIP: If you want help with your Internet marketing, consider getting some consulting from Virginia Duan, the lady who worked as Mark Joyner's right-hand "man" for years.

Virginia is amazing. I've rarely seen anyone work so hard, so joyfully, and so relentlessly. She's a delight to work with, she's loyal, trusting, and brilliant. And she's always smiling.

I've seen Virginia improve products, sales letters, websites and their offers with just an hour of her expert time. One hour with her could increase your results dramatically.

I don't make a dime from telling you all this. I just know Virginia is a rare person, and could help you with your online marketing. If I had a business where I needed employees, I'd hire her in a heartbeat. The good news is, she's now available for consulting.

Write her at info@virginiaduan.com or call her at (323) 881-9294 for details.

PREDICTION: People are bailing out of email marketing. My friend and mentor Paul Hartunian is one of the first. Mark Joyner says email marketing will soon die out. Dan Kennedy won't even do it.

My own prediction is email will become so regulated that it will be tough to get a legit message to squeak through the filters.

What are you going to do? How will you adjust?

TRIVIA: "Reflectoporn" is the exhibitionist act of photographing yourself reflected naked in a household item you want to sell and then submitting the photographed object to an auction website.

REQUEST: The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman.

It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on "funding a mammogram" for freee (pink window in the middle). This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers fund mammograms based on the number of clicks the site gets. See --

http://www.thebreastcancersite.com

Of course, clicking that site isn't the only way to help women with breast cancer.
