A Doodle a Day…

March 26, 2017 by Tony Leave a Comment

Chances are that, at some point in your life…as a child or as an adult…you doodled. We all have. It’s a “mindless” activity that helps us pass time, negotiate challenging tasks or to just de-stress.

Doodling is actually a pretty amazing art form that you just can’t get wrong!

Over the past few years, you couldn’t help but take notice to the massive Coloring Book Trend, but what many don’t realize is that the trend was actually birthed out of Doodling…people began coloring the doodles they were creating!

There is actually amazing studies and research that support the importance of Doodles:

“Recent research in neuroscience, psychology and design shows that doodling can help people stay focused, grasp new concepts and retain information. A blank page also can serve as an extended playing field for the brain, allowing people to revise and improve on creative thoughts and ideas.” ~Wall Street Journal

“Preliminary studies and anecdotal reports seem support the idea that [doodling] is a “meditative” art form that actually induces relaxation and has an impact on self-control, mood, and stress reduction.” ~Psychology Today

Doodling can take on a LOT of forms for both adults and children. It may serve as a form of art journalling or as a fun activity for your child.

And therein lies the beauty for creating and publishing books for the world’s doodlers…

This underserved publishing market has PLENTY of room to be creative and expressive for creating your OWN books!

But Tony, You Don’t Understand…I Can’t Draw!

GOOD! Neither can I…which leads me to the BEST part: Creating your own Doodle Book doesn’t REQUIRE you to draw (OR doodle for that matter)! Let me repeat that because it’s HUGE…

Creating your own Doodle Book doesn’t REQUIRE you to draw…OR doodle!

Doodle Books are meant to be FUN…and creating them is JUST as fun because there are FEW limits to what you create!

You can create books for children if that’s your passion OR design books with the working Mom in mind! Focus your book toward the elderly or boys who love science!

The fact is that Doodle Books are one of the most diverse and flexible book styles there is!

In Other Words…You CAN Do This. And It’s FUN!

Introducing…Make Doodle Books!

In this FUN new publishing training from me, you will discover the creative world of Doodle Books. As you go through the beginner-friendly training videos, you will quickly discover that YOU can (and should) create Doodle Books for your favorite niche, passion or markets!

Public Domain Blueprint

July 27, 2016 by Tony 3 Comments

It was the first day of the new millennium and he greeted it by walking away from a $20 an hour job to start his own business. He had never been in business for himself before and the endless possibilities were exhilarating and exciting. The man had planned well for his departure and began his new business with a few prime clients in place. With hard work and perseverance, he replaced his previous salary within two years. Then the unthinkable happened. Like the orchestrated detonation of a condemned building, his business collapsed in 2002 due to a major shift in his industry. The bottom fell out and there was nothing the man could do to stop it.

His income dropped by 80%, and in spite of 13 attempts to go back to a “real job”, every opportunity fell through. Relying on food stamps to feed his family, his house in active foreclosure, the man knew there had to be another way. In spite of the bleak outlook, he knew he had made the right choice to start his own business. With a renewed commitment to himself and his family to find the answer he was looking for, the man continued to push ahead with a dream of something more.

Slowly, he rebuilt his business, saved his house and got off food stamps. But in spite of all his hard work and effort, the answer the man searched for alluded him. A year later, when a stranger’s comment reminded him of something he had forgotten from ten years previous, a spark of curiosity captured the man’s imagination with an idea of possibility. How could he have so easily forgotten a “miracle” that had saved his family once before? With little outside help and a lot of hard work, the man ventured into a brand-new marketplace with a vision for the future and his first book in hand. That was five years ago and that man was me. The discovery (or rather, re-discovery, was the Public Domain.

In the past five years, Public Domain content has changed my life. Through the products I’ve created from Public Domain content, I’ve been able to generate a consistent six-figure income every year. The reason why that’s so amazing and such good news for you is that the copyright laws haven’t changed and Public Domain content is more accessible now than ever before. And so I have decided that, in honor of my 5-year anniversary in working with Public Domain content, I am going to teach a brand-new series that reveals the blueprints I’ve discovered and developed to create profit-pulling products from Public Domain content.

In “Public Domain Blueprint,” I am going to reveal the best strategies, the best blueprints for turning the proven content from the Public Domain into laser-focused, profit-producing products using every media type available: Books, Serials, Patents, Government, Images, Audio & Video. You might think that I’ve shared all my secrets about the Public Domain, but you would be wrong. In “Public Domain Blueprint”, however, they all come out. I’m holding nothing back.

If you’re ready for the next level of product creation (and you’d like to get in on the fun at an 85% discount), click the link below and get ready to discover the Public Domain like you’ve never seen it before. Because I’m going to tell you what works and what doesn’t. Click below!

Discover How to Take Amazing Nature Photos!

July 12, 2016 by Tony Leave a Comment

If you LOVE Nature photography and have always wanted to improve your photos to look like the ones in magazines, my “Photo Nature Secrets” training is for you…even if you only have a point-n-shoot! You will even discover how you can profit from those amazing Nature photos you will be taking!

Sign up here: http://photoprofitsecrets.com/photo-nature-secrets/

There is no form of photography that offers an escape from the stresses of life more than Nature Photography. It is my personal favorite form of expression! There is something magical about connecting with the natural world visually. I believe we’re wired that way. Native American traditions even go so far as to refer to the natural world around us as our Mother, and that we’re related to all living things including the trees, animals and everything else. Whether we choose to embrace that world view or not, there is still (and always will be) a curious draw toward the natural beauty we see and experience in our home, Planet Earth. Capturing those experiences and expressions of beauty photographically is a natural, and sometimes compelling, response to remember, but also to share those memories.

If you LOVE photographing the great outdoors, this is the perfect series for you. In this video series, I share my own personal photography techniques for capturing the beauty of nature, drawn from years of experience and enjoyment! Whether your passion is to photograph butterflies and flowers, birds and animals or landscapes and scenics, you will definitely discover new ways to improve your nature photography and take it to the next level in this course!

A Video Challenge

March 19, 2011 by Tony 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.

Up Against a Wall

January 24, 2011 by Tony 2 Comments

The past few posts on using art for physical products…and specifically for prints…has created quite a stir. Paul even went so far as to say:

“Incredible article Tony. This one post is the basis of a potentially full-time job, all by itself. They should start calling you “Mr. Value.”

I like the sound of that…grin.

The truth is that Paul is right…what I’ve shared, and continue to share, can create a great income for you. That’s why I’m sharing it. There is big money in art (in case you haven’t figured that out yet). And so, to continue the discussion on how to profit from art even further, in today’s post, I am going to share a new resource that I just started using. I’m really excited about this company because their business model is awesome, their products and price points are great, and the truly understand third-party fulfillment!

Wall Hogs offers a unique spin on how to “hang” your art on your walls. While they DO offer poster prints, those are NOT why you need to use this company. They offer a technology much more “sexy” than poster prints. They actually give you the ability to produce your artwork or photos as removable vinyl cutouts that adhere directly to your wall. It’s likely you have seen this before. What is amazing about this company, however, is that their prices are reasonable and they make it simple to be a reseller for their services. I like that!

Recently, I uploaded a piece of art that was based on a Public Domain image and initially created as a t-shirt design. the upload process was straight-forward and easy. A minute or two and a Paypal payment later, my artwork was in-process for a 12″ wide vinyl cutout. And the cost? Just $12.99 plus a buck and change for shipping. Resellers get 25% off of those prices.

As you would imagine, my brain is spinning. The opportunities are huge. Wall Hogs is going to get a LOT of business from me. They should get a bunch from you Public Domain Image fanatics out there as well! To learn MORE about the services Wall Hogs offers and to get your own vinyl cutout made (you HAVE to try this…seriously!), check out their website HERE! I highly recommend them!

BTW…what I’ve been sharing in these posts is just the tip of the iceberg compared to what I’m planning to reveal in my upcoming webinar series, “Physical Product Success Secrets.” This new series may be one of the most important series I present this year on how you can build a profitable business using proven content from the Public Domain. Get all the details and sign up here:

Physical Product Success Secrets

Oh, and everyone who signs up by January 26th gets an insane bonus I’ve NEVER offered before…trust me, you would be crazy to pass this up!

Physical Product Success Secrets

January 23, 2011 by Tony Leave a Comment

Over the past several days, I’ve been sharing some in-depth strategies and insights on how to use Public Domain content to create Physical Products. With top traffic sites like Amazon, eBay, Etsy and others pulling in a whopping monthly
traffic volume of over 175 million consumers, it is INSANE to NOT be selling products on those sites!

The great news is that, with the vast collection of Public Domain available to us, is it easier now than ever to create and sell products on those sites. And that leads me to a VERY exciting announcement!

I just released the details on a brand-new webinar series I am teaching called, “Physical Product Success Secrets” where I will be sharing all the latest marketing research, product creation strategies and much more! This series will share,
step-by-step, how you can add profitable physical products to your business and benefit from the massive amounts of consumers looking for YOUR products. I will show you how to determine what sells and what doesn’t, the types of products
you can create (and how to do it), where to sell them online AND offline, and much more!

You can get all the details on how to get started here. You do NOT want to miss this:
