Way back in 2001 Mark Joyner, sometimes referred to as "The Godfather of Internet Marketing" published a book entitled "Mind Control Marketing – How Everyday People are Using Forbidden Mind Control Psychology and Ruthless Military Tactics to Make Millions Online".
Some well known names gave the book glowing reviews:
Joe Vitale, author of "Hypnotic Marketing" and star of "The Secret" said:
"Riveting. Mind-expanding. A by-god masterpeice."
Robert Allen, author of "Multiple Streams of Income" said:
"Just one idea in this book could make (or save) you millions."
Robert Anton Wilson, co-author of the "Illuminatus!" trilogy said:
"The best book of the new millennium!"
On February 16th 2008 Mark Joyner published a new eBook entitled "The Rise of the Author". On page 18 of that eBook, in the section headed "Mind Control 101", he revealed his current thinking about his previous book:
I wrote a full book about all of this years ago (Mind Control Marketing) and let it go out of print because I felt it wasn’t really the right message to be sending people about business.
The print version of the book is currently still in demand, but since it has been out of print for a long time it is now rather expensive. You can pick up a used copy on Amazon.com for $198.98 as I type this.
In "The Rise of the Author" Mark also added:
Since then I’ve realized that there is no way to contain this kind of information anymore. Whether I popularize it or someone else does, it’s going to happen.
These days I’m more interested in ensuring that this information is being presented in its proper context.
Some will use this power to influence people to perform acts of great kindness and others will use it to influence them to do great evil, and some will use it for personal gain at the expense of others.
That I can’t control.
What I can do now is inform more people about these ideas so they may protect themselves.
Earlier today Mark Joyner announced that he is relaunching "Mind Control Marketing" in downloadable form on April 8th, complete with a previously unseen "missing chapter". Personally I cannot wait to read that extra chapter. If you would like to find out more about that missing chapter, or indeed the relaunch of the whole book, then go to MindControlMarketing.com right now.
Prepare to be shocked. Seriously.

A buddy of mine bought an e-book, then an e-course too. Later he bought some more. He learned that you have to give people what they are hungry and thirsty for. You have to give them what they are desperate for.
Then he learned that you have to put fear into their hearts. Into their guts. If they don't buy the latest offer the price will go up. If they don't buy it now, it will be gone forever.
He worked his fingers to the bone at the keyboard of his PC, 3 hours a night for 4 weeks. Three different niches, three different sites. He checked his PayPal account:
"My Account Overview"
"PayPal Balance"
$0.00
As he types, he has no yacht, no affiliates, no list to speak of.
As I type, there are 4 on the DOC-MS ™ list.

Adsense guru Joel Comm has started a new venture, a reality show delivered via the internet rather than TV. The show is entitled "The Next Internet Millionaire", and the prize the 12 contestants are competing for is a joint venture with Joel Comm himself.
One of the things I don't like about the internet marketing industry is the way in which thousands of products are churned out every year, most of which are simply regurgitated stale crap. Of the few products that do contain some real meat very few address what seems to me to be the fundamental problem. Even if you have bought some up to date information, maybe even a system that really works, you won't make money on the internet unless you get your head straight.
This point was made by Richard Dennis many years ago, before the internet as we now know it even existed. "I always say that you could publich my trading rules in the newspaper and no one would follow them. The key is consistency and discipline" (Quoted in "Market Wizards" by Jack D. Schwager.)
From this point of view I was very pleased to see that the first episode of "The Next Internet Millionaire" featured Mark Joyner and simpleology. On the WWW Gurus mission to teach "Internet marketing with no money down" simpleology 101 is the ideal starting point. Mark Joyner has provided at no cost whatsoever an online course that helps you get your head in the right place to achieve whatever it is that you want to achieve. If what you want to achieve is to make some money from internet marketing then you might want to take careful note of the methods Mark uses to try and persuade you to part with some money for his other simpleology courses!
I have no idea how many of the contestants on "The Next Internet Millionaire" were already familiar with the ideas behind simpleology before meeting Mark Joyner on Day 1 of the show. If they weren't I'm afraid I don't think they would be in a position to make much use of them over the 2 weeks they spent recording the show. I am sure that Mark Joyner would agree with Richard Dennis that the key to success, in internet marketing in general, and simpleology in particular, is consistency and discipline over weeks, months and years, not just a few days.
