Happy Independence Day to my friends in the U.S. It’s a treat for
me as I’ll get to take Saturday off from the office. I’ll still be
logging in occasionally during the weekend, as always, but welcome
the chance to just chill out for a while. And the weather is
supposed to be fabulous all weekend.
And a belated Happy Canada Day to our friends up north of us. If
there’s another national holiday I’m not aware of, I apologize, it’s
not intentional if I omitted anyone.

Here are this week’s new downloads:
Twitter webinar recording (with Ron Davies):
/notloggedin.php
I thought this was great content. The video and audio are now
available, the transcript will come a little later.
Twitter Pro Templates:

One thing Ron talked about was getting your Twitter profile and
background looking professional, maybe one of these templates will
help.
Online Time Management:
http://earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8177
None of us gets more time than anyone else in a day, but some
manage it better than others. This report has nice reviews
already, and you can resell it if you like.
New marketing tool for Earn1KaDay affiliates:

I want to help you refer new members into the site, this might
help. More to come soon.

The next webinar for members is with the Rhodes Brothers. If you
saw them in Orlando at the seminar, or watched the DVD, I hope you
agree with me that they’re great speakers, and deliver solid
content. I’m running a webinar with them on Wednesday, July 8th, 2
p.m. eastern (New York) time, the signup link to register to attend
live is here:
https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/523158122
and the thread with more information is here:
http://earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8151
The title of the webinar is “Total Nut Jobs and Membership Web
Sites – A Night to Remember”. I wouldn’t say they’re total nut
jobs, but they are fun to be around, I think you’ll enjoy this
webinar.
And of course, if you can’t join us live, there will be a recording
made available in the members area a day or two after the live
event. There’s obvioiusly an advantage in being with us live
though, you get to ask questions, you get to see it first, and you
have no risk of there being a problem with the recording.
By the way, last week I recommended Jason Fladlien’s product,
“Membership Site Tactics”. I still do. In fact I think going
through it prior to the Rhodes Brothers webinar will get you very
much up to speed, and help you come up with great ideas for your
own site. Then ask John and Matt your specific questions about
your idea, and you’ll be well on the way to success with your own
site. You can still get Jason’s product here at a very low price
if you’re not one of the 80+ that purchased already:

Satisfaction guaranteed, of course. You can never know too much
about a subject you intend to use as a business model of your own.

Forum threads of note:
Jenn’s asking if there’s any interest in a service matching up

Richard started a thread titled “It’s raining webinars”, and got
quite a lot of response so far.
http://earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8166
There seems to be quite a division between those that love webinars
and those that don’t. I’ve been in that thread trying to sway the
audience to my side of the fence because I think it’s something you
should consider doing if you want to produce products. You can
read my reasoning, other opinions, and hopefully post your own in
the thread.
Please. Let us know where you stand. I’m planning on investing a
lot of time and money into content production using webinars, and
I’m hoping that the majority agree that it’s better to do it that
way than to just do screen capture videos or just record interviews
with no live audience.
The thing is, I think everyone will agree, if done right, webinars
are great. I think I have an idea what “doing it right” entails,
but please tell me if you have other suggestions.

Monitoring your sites’ up times:

A simple question produced some great suggestions in this thread.
Whether or not you need the answer to this question, it’s an
indication of the power of letting us know what you want to know.
This thread will help many, I’m sure.
So what’s your question this week?

Have you had annoying problems with downloads from the members area
ending up with a .html extension? A few people have, but I was
unaware of it until BoonKwee asked:
http://earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8139
and Steve fixed something internally, which hopefully solved it.

Another previously unasked question resulted in a quick answer that
helped several members.

An old thread about offline marketing got resurrected this week, it
was started in January 2008. I thought it was great then, and
great now:

Latest member of the month:

We’ve seen our latest selection blossom from a raw rookie to one of
the top content writers around. Can you guess who it is?

That’s just a short review of some of the highlights, there is much
more going on all the time at the forum. Don’t be a stranger
there, that’s where the primary value of your membership is, after
all. We’re not there to chat so much (though there is a lounge
there if you want to unwind), we’re there to learn from each other,
and share with each other, and as you can see from the above sample
threads, there’s a lot of that happening.

Until next week, I wish you the very best in everything.
