Get These Templates!

by Leave a Comment

Hey Gang…I have something super exciting to tell you about! It takes a LOT for a product to make me say “Holy Sh*t!” out loud…but THIS one did!

It’s a new video template package that enables you to create customized videos using Powerpoint. I hate to admit this (being that I taught a course on Powerpoint) but I didn’t even know you could DO some of what these templates can do.

I grabbed the front-end offer (it’s less than $18 right now) and I also grabbed the OTO (gives you even more templates AND developer rights).

Listen, I’ll be REALLY honest…It never even occurred to me that you could create videos like this just using Powerpoint. They’re THAT powerful. And I sure as hell wouldn’t have sold them for $17! That’s just stupid.

But the reality is that this is one of my personal favorite purchases THIS YEAR…and that’s saying something.

Go to the page…watch the videos…grab the templates. They include everything you need including tutorial videos on how to use them.

At Least We Have the Story…

by 6 Comments

Over the years I’ve realized that, when it comes to events in my life, there are several versions of what took place. There is the “How I Remember It” version; the “What I Share with Personal Friends and Family” version; the “Social Media” version; the “Contemplative What Went Right and Wrong” version; the “Other People’s” version and what REALLY happened. I can kid myself into thinking that they are ALL one and the same, but we BOTH know that just isn’t reality.

I CHOOSE what version of the story to tell for any number of reasons. I could share a version of the story to make ME look like the hero…or someone ELSE look like the villain. I could spin the story to make it humorous for laughs or just to vent in a glorious bitchfest. I might downplay my story because I feel embarrassed by what happened or shrug it off as if it doesn’t matter. But in every scenario, I have my reasons for CHOOSING the story I tell, whether those reasons are conscious or sub-conscious. So do YOU!

I’ll give you an example…my recent wedding with Kristen Joy.

The story told on Social Media through Facebook Live video, photos from guests and congratulations from friends, family and customers is the version of the story most are familiar with. Everything shared DID happen and it was both fun and wonderful. But there is another story…one NOT shared much. THIS version of the story includes a fatal accident that occurred on the bridge near our wedding location that prevented most of our guests, including my daughters, from arriving to the ceremony until much later than it was scheduled to begin. It includes strong winds that forced us to, at the last minute, franticly search for a backup venue for the reception because sand was getting into the food and making it impossible to keep wedding decorations on the table. And THIS version includes disappointments and embarrassments that were NOT a part of our plan or expectations.

Both stories are the truth and both stories INCLUDE what mattered most: Kristen Joy and I became husband and wife on the beach in front of family and friends who traveled from all over to support us and love us! A lot went right and a lot went wrong, but in the end, a boy and a girl who love each other got married.

So WHY am I telling you this?

We all have STORIES and choose how we should share them. The truth is that it’s BECAUSE of stories that we connect and interact with one another. Stories matter…they matter in our private lives, they matter in our personal growth, they matter in our interactions with others and they matter in our businesses!

Stories matter and it’s time to tell YOURS!

In business, the challenge at times is how to TELL your story that ENGAGES your audience in a way YOU choose. I’m NOT talking about making stuff up or playing the “pity me” card. No! Your story is meant to inspire and empower your audience. It’s meant to build a bridge between you and your audience so that they feel connected. This is not manipulation in any sense of the word, but rather, it’s people doing what they were meant to do…CONNECT!

Not long ago, I was inspired to share many of these principles in great detail through two courses…”Market with Stories” and “Engage with Stories.” Story is SO powerful that with it, you can “sell ice cubes to Eskimos.” Tell the WRONG story and you get zero sales for the greatest product ever. When I released these trainings and insights initially, many of my customers jumped at the chance to discover the power of story for themselves and both trainings were very powerful…even MORE SO due to the interaction of everyone who attended them live. But now I want to open up the courses to a much larger audience because the message in them matters. I made the decision to temporarily drop the pricing for the courses from the original of $197 to just $47 for BOTH!

Now WHY would I give up $150 with of profit from these courses if they are so powerful? Simple…there are people waiting to hear YOUR story and to discover YOUR products. These trainings will help you develop that story and I REALLY want to see you succeed with it. Stories matter…YOUR story matters. So consider it an investment. I’m investing my time and money into you! Perhaps you’re thinking, “Well if that’s true, Tony, why not just give the courses away for free?” That’s a simple answer…you won’t take it seriously. We all know that anything worthwhile has to cost us something. Honestly, in all the times I DID give training away for free, I cannot point to ONE person who actually did anything with it…NOT ONE! So rather than make it free, I decided to reduced the price to make it an easy no-brainer for you…the cost of dinner for a family of 4…just $47!

There is something else. I want YOUR stories as well. I want to hear about and celebrate your successes! This makes it easier!

To get started with crafting and telling YOUR story and take advantage of the $150 discount for the next few days, click the link below and order your copy. You’ll gain instant access to BOTH courses PLUS bonuses! It’s a great deal…and an awesome story! Here is where to go now:

A Video Challenge

by 15 Comments

Here’s a fun challenge for you…

I’ve been speaking at Simple 3: Video Velocity this weekend in Anaheim, CA this weekend and the hands-on workshops have been awesome. Challenging the attendees to actually DO what we’re teaching so that, in the end, they actually have finished videos uploaded and available on YouTube and on their website. Some of them are doing it kicking and screaming…lol…but they’re getting their videos done. It’s very cool.

And that brings me to the challenge…

I’ve been talking about the importance and need to create your own videos. It’s not a suggestion…it’s a necessity if you’re serious about building an online business. Have you created any videos that are actually online yet? If yes…awesome! Produce more! If no, what are you waiting for?

I want to challenge you to create your first (or a new) video TODAY and post the link on my blog so I can see it. I want to know you’re getting this and DOING it! Plus…it could be fun. Now…about the video you’re going to create…it can be ANY kind of video, such as:

  • A Live Action Video: Talk into your video camera, flip cam, smart phone, etc. Share a one-minute tip you can share with the world that can help the viewer.
  • A Screencast Video: Create a quick Powerpoint video on your product or service, or again, to share a valuable tip or insight.
  • A Mixed Media Video: Use Animoto or other video program to create a video with photos, text, music, etc. that shares something helpful, fun or uplifting.
  • A Live Broadcast Video: Setup, broadcast and record a brief video on UStream where you share something of value to your audience (or potential audience).

Once your video is created, upload it to YouTube and share the link in the comments section below of this article. I can’t wait to see what you come up with! And, by the way, if you haven’t figured this out yet, I am offering you exposure to your message on my blog at no cost. Also, for everyone who takes up my challenge and completes it, I will give you a special bonus…full access to my Master DVD Templates and my Master Powerpoint Templates (which currently isn’t available).

I also want to remind you that, this weekend only, my Limitless Video Content course is being specially discounted just for you! Instead of the regular price of $197, you can grab it this weekend at 61% off…just $77! It’s the last time I’ll be offering it at this price…ever. Don’t miss out. It’s one of the best courses I’ve ever taught.

So here is what to do next…

Pick up your copy of Limitless Video Content at the Weekend Special offer.

Have fun creating your video!

Create your video and get it uploaded to YouTube today!

Go to my blog and post the link (once I see you’ve posted your video, I’ll send you the download info for your bonus.

Now get busy…grin.

Let’s Discuss Your Success, Face-to-Face!

by 1 Comment

Have you hit a roadblock in your efforts to make a decent living on the Internet?

Don’t feel alone. Most people never make it past the first bump in the road, much less the real full-strength roadblocks that can sit right in your roadway to the top.

It’s not that they aren’t working at it.

Lots of people spend years reading and studying everything that they can get their hands on and from that group an even  smaller group actually do something.

Most of those people wind up frustrated and spinning their wheels, wondering all the while why they can’t be successful.

The worst part is that they know that people are successful at making a decent living on-line and yet despite all of the reams of advice that they receive, all of the products they purchase and all of the work that they put in, they just can’t seem to get past the roadblocks.

Maybe this is you …

  • Feeling like you just can’t get started?
  • Need something to get you off your “behind” and  into action?
  • Feeling like you need some big-time help?
  • Want some inside techniques that really work?
  • Want a clear handle on the basics?
  • Need some joint venture partners to kick you up to the next level?
  • Need to get out of your basement and meet real people that are already doing what you want to do?
  • Need answers to a few technical questions?
  • Need help putting everything together?
  • Need some feedback on your next project?

Feel like you just can’t break into the “big-time” success that you see others having?

You will meet at least two major roadblocks when you first try to create and sell products or services on the Internet.

  1. Creating your first product and the tools that you need to sell it.  (web site, graphics, packaging, etc.)
  2. Getting the first sale.

One “strategy” I’ve used over the years to help me BLAST through those roadblocks has been attending LIVE events! They provide you with an opportunity to learn from the experts who have been where you are, but also enable you to sit down and talk with like-minded people face-to-face and get questions answered.

Ken McArthur’s jvAlert is a great event for that type on face-to-face connecting because Ken wisely created the event for that purpose, and it has paid off for thousands of up-and-coming marketers just like you!

The next jvAlert is coming up shortly in Orlando and I’ve decided to team up with Ken and many other friends and Internet Marketers to make THIS jvAlert an unforgettable experience!

http://publicdomainblog.com/go/jv

Ken is a friend of mine, who sees the insides of “real life” projects every day.  In fact, he is at the center of a group of people that work together in a regular “idea factory” of a place with his jvAlert.

You would be amazed at the people that are in this group.

Ken actually arranges for these top-level people to work with you on YOUR projects and then they turn around and promote your products too.

Ken invited me to be a part of this event and I grabbed the chance right away.

But …

Then he started telling me some of the other people that are coming. Many of them my friends and mentors…

Imagine working on your project with people like Ken McArthur, Gary Ambrose, Jason Anderson, Michael Angier, Phil Basten, Alan Bechtold, Nashlah Boyayan, Shahar Boyayan, Hollis Carter, Joe Clayton, Lee Collins, Paul Counts, Willie Crawford, Glenn Dietzel, Ron Dilbert, Andy Duncan, Brian T. Edmondson, Ray Edwards, Mike Evans, Stephanie Frank, Carl Galletti, Edie Galley, Michael Glaspie, Ross Goldberg, John Halpin, Mark Hendricks, Eric Holmlund, Shel Horowitz, Michael Humphreys, Bob Jenkins, Audrey Kerwood, Sohail Khan, Walt Laurel, Simon Leung, Skye Mangrum, Jane Mark, PJ McClure, Deb Micek, Daven Michaels, Melanie Milletics, Joey Montez, Chris Moos, Cori Padgett, Scott Paton, David Perdew, Daniel Perry, Susan Preston, David Preston, Laura Roman Lopez, Marlon Sanders, Thom Scott, Brad Semp, Felicia Slattery, Joey Smith, Frank Sousa, Erik Stafford, Howard Tiano, Jeff Wellman, Mike Wesely, Jess Kennedy Williams, Bob Yeager and more, more, more!

They are ALL going to be there and a pile of other experts too! Imagine what this Super Panel to do to help move your business forward!

So where does YOUR project come into this?

Ken has developed a very unique “Hot Seat” that is perfectly designed to get you feedback and even more crucial, exposure to people that can really make a difference for your project.

Here’s the way it works …

When you register for the event, you are given the opportunity to apply to be on the “Hot Seat.”

The expert panel selects the best ideas and those ideas are assigned a spot on the “Hot Seat” schedule.

The presenter of the idea prepares a 15 minute presentation to pitch their idea to the “Hot Seat” panel of experts and all of the people who attend the event.

Then the fun begins …

You get to listen in as our panel grills the person on the “hot seat” and picks their project to bits.

Then we turn right around and build it back up with ideas from the best minds in the business.

You KNOW you are going to pick-up some great ideas from this series whether you are in the “Hot Seat” or comfortably watching someone else squirm a little as these top-level professionals show you exactly (and specifically) how to take a starting idea and turn it into REAL money.

But, even more important than that, you and I can spend some quality time together one on one. I know that we can come up with ways to work together that will make this new year great for both of us. Whether you want to work with Public Domain content, or create your own content, we can definitely determine the BEST strategies that will work for you!

http://publicdomainblog.com/go/jv

If you have any questions on this, don’t hesitate to let me know.  I’m definitely going to be there, so let’s not let this opportunity to get together pass by. Plus, because I am planning to spend extra time in the Orlando are, we can definitely meet up!

There’s limited space, so don’t wait.
