Mark Joyner has has been releasing products thick and fast for the past few months. As part of this series of launches Mark has also been giving away lots of great information at no cost whatsoever. As from today you can download a copy of his best selling book The Irresistible Offer. Just go to Mark's simpleology web site and sign up. No money down. No charge at all!
Apparently Mark has persuaded his publisher, John Wiley & Sons, to conduct a marketing experiment. Mark's theory is that giving away the ebook will actually boost sales of the print version of the book. Is he right? I guess only time will tell, but we'll conduct a little experiment of our own to try and test out this idea. Today The Irresistible Offer is at number 4099 in the Amazon.com list of best selling books. We'll keep track of the book's position in the Amazon charts and let you know how it fares over the next few weeks.
You may be asking yourself whether it's worth your time downloading and then reading a 200 page book. I suggest you just do it, but if you need a bit more information here is a quote from the dust jacket to give you a flavour of what the book is all about:
For too long selling has been about manipulating a message and manipulating a consumer. The Irresistible Offer presents a new, effective, and ethical way to sell based on what you're selling, not how you're selling it.
If that has whetted your appetite here's some praise for the book from Joe Vitale, star of "The Secret" and the author of quite a few marketing books himself:
I've read every book on marketing printed in the last 150 years. This is the first breakthrough in over fifty years. A truly brilliant, practical, and inspiring book. Destined to be a classic and a collectible. It's a masterpiece.
Like I said, if you're at all interested in marketing in general, or internet marketing in particular, get your copy of The Irresistible Offer now. Just do it.

Following on from the recent announcement of the simpleology "Will You Be the World's Next Best Selling Author?" competition Mark Joyner has just released a new e-book entitled "The Rise of the Author….and the End Of Publishing As We Know It".
Whether you are currently a writer or not, Kasia and I recommend that you stop whatever you are doing, download this e-book, and read it from virtual cover to cover. If now is not a good time try and find the time to read it before you go back to work on Monday morning. At the very least read the executive summary at the end.
In "The Rise of the Author" Mark suggests that the world is currently experiencing what he terms "The Great Nexus". (I do not know if this a reference, conscious or unconscious on Mark's part, to Henry Miller's struggle to become recognized as a "legitimate" author.) The "Digital Age" has provided a brief window in history when "the power to publish and distribute information has recently shifted from the hands of the few to the hands of the many."
Authors currently have the power in their hands to decentralize the control of information. However "In order for a great shift toward Decentralization to occur a large number of people must have the required Knowledge, the sufficient Means, and the Will to make it happen." I suggest that everyone reading this blog post asks themselves this question. "Do I have the Knowledge, the Means, and the Will to make this happen?" If the answer is "Not yet, but I'd like to" then go read "The Rise of the Author" as soon as you have an hour or two to spare.
On the penultimate page Mark Joyner issues a challenge of his own. "I challenge someone reading this to solve the technology challenge of Unbinding the Internet from the Medium of Transmission and the Device. Whoever does this will go down in history as one of the most important transformative /component/option,com_jcalpro/Itemid,28/extmode,view/extid,58/recurdate,1278997200/">buy cialis no prescription figures who ever lived, and will provide one of the most profound services to humanity ever rendered. Is that you?"
Is it?

Our regular readers will know we are big fans of Mark Joyner and his free simpleology 101 online course. In fact before I forget to mention it, this seems like a good time to remind you that the simpleology blogging course is also still available free of charge to anyone who blogs about it!
In the last two or three months simpleology has branched out from its beginnings in self development and internet marketing to embrace the arts. Initially came the simpleology Jacque Fresco Teaches Drawing course, which is purely about teaching an artistic technique. More recently two new simpleology courses have been announced, which combine the arts with internet marketing. If you can already write and/or make music, these two new courses will teach you how to promote yourself and your art. They will teach you how to turn your passion for writing or music into an income, if that is something you want to do.
If you are passionate about writing the course to /component/option,com_jcalpro/Itemid,99999999/extmode,flyer/date,2060-11-01/">what is cialis professional look at is: Will You Be the World's Next Best Selling Author?
If you are passionate about music check out the music promotion course instead: Online Music Fame!
This is a gross generalization, but often creative people are not terribly good at promoting themselves and their work and have traditionally had to rely on (and pay handsomely!) others to do this for them. Now, however, the internet allows artists to dispense with the agents, the managers, the record companies, the publishers, the gallery owners and the media moguls. These new simpleology courses show you how to promote your art directly to lovers of that art throughout the world.
An integral part of the "art of promotion" in 2008 is the internet video. If you are a writer a simpleology competition has just started. To enter the Best Selling Author competition simply make a 2 minute video and upload it to YouTube before midnight on February 26th. Mark Joyner and Richard Webster will give live speed writing training to every entrant, and the 3 lucky competition winners get a whole bunch of goodies, including having their work promoted to Mark Joyner's 250,000 strong list!
Here at the World Wide Web Gurus we do have some experience with internet videos. Here are a couple we did for up and coming British band De Larje in the simpleology Online Music Fame Competition, for example. I suspect most writers are less comfortable with the idea of appearing in a YouTube video than musicians are with making a music video. However, if you would like to give the simpleology Best Selling Author competition a try, but are unsure about the ins and outs of getting your video made and up on YouTube (and maybe a few other places too!), then please do get in touch with us via our contact form, and we'll help in any way we can.
P.S. For the internet marketers amongst our readers, I clicked the "Publish" button for this post at 13:00 GMT, then I went to make a sandwich and a cup of tea for lunch. By the time I checked Google at 13:40 GMT we were already at number 6 in the natural search rankings for the keyphrase simpleology online music fame, and number 20 for simpleology best selling author.

I'm just catching up with my emails after a couple of days travelling. In my inbox is a message from Mark Joyner about a new simpleology course about blogging. Our regular readers will know we are big fans of previous simpleology courses, and we are also in the business of teaching people how to start to generate an income from blogging without having to spend any money first, not even one dollar!
The new simpleology blogging course fits that bill, since it is currently available free of charge to anyone who blogs about it, so here I am blogging about it using the particular form of words that Mark requested.
I'm evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they're letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.
It covers:
- The best blogging techniques.
- How to get traffic to your blog.
- How to turn your blog into money.
I'll let you know what I think once I've had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it's still free.

P.S. It is less than an hour since I first posted this article. We are already at number 16 (out of 14,200) in the Google /component/page,shop.product_details/product_id,59/flypage,flypage.tpl/pop,0/option,com_virtuemart/Itemid,4/vmcchk,1/">cialis dosage options natural search rankings for the keyphrase simpleology blogging, despite a certain amount of duplicate content!

It is less than an hour since I clicked the "Publish" button for my post about the Secret Classroom. We are already at number 7 in Google US for the query "joel comm" "secret classroom" "next internet /component/option,com_jcalpro/Itemid,99999999/extmode,cal/date,2060-09-01/">ordering cialis millionaire" "mark joyner" simpleology. Now it is very unlikely that anyone will actually type all that into their Google search box. It does however illustrate how quickly it is possible to get into the Google natural search results these days.

Today Joel Comm has launched a new product called generic cheap cialis target="_blank">The Secret Classroom. It is the home study version of The Next Internet Millionaire internet reality show.
If you've been following this blog for a while you'll know that here at World Wide Web Gurus we are big fans of Mark Joyner and his simpleology courses. You will also know that we are attempting to demonstrate how to earn money on the internet without spending any first. This launch presents us with an opportunity to try and combine these two passions of ours. We are affiliates of Joel, and can therefore earn money by selling his products. In addition Mark Joyner was the first real life internet millionaire to appear on the show. He was teaching the 12 contestants how to use the techniques he teaches in simpleology to organize their time better and so become vastly more productive.
Now normally for a big launch like this we'd buy some pay per click advertising, but that is against the rules for this project. We'll see if we can find out what is possible without paying for any clicks, or any other form of advertising come to that.
Watch this space!

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 /content/view/25/58/">cialis dosage side effects 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.
