YouTube tip, Affirmations, Earnings survey, ePN annoyance, and more…

by 5buckguy

Rachel’s away at a retreat this week, so I’m all alone with nobody
to bounce ideas off of, which is a bad thing and a good thing.

Good because I can make decisions about spending our money all by
myself, bad because if I make the wrong ones, man am I in trouble
when she gets back! :-)

I’m not worried though, she hardly ever argues with me spending our
money, but wow, I spent a bunch this week. You’ll be seeing the
benefits of that soon enough, don’t worry.

In fact, it’s almost at the point where I think we’re going to
discuss raising the price of membership here. Obviously everyone
currently a member will be grandfathered and grandmothered in at
your current rate, so you don’t have to worry unless you want to
take a voluntary sabbatical.

Notable news:

In the “this probably isn’t for everybody” department…

I hesitated to launch PDF Popup Pro because of some negative
expectations when I talked about it last month. I took all those
comments into consideration. talked to Rachel about it, and we
decided that the software really can be effective if used in the
right way.

Used in the wrong way it can be annoying, agreed.

But in the right way, I think it can be deadly effective in doing
what it’s supposed to do (increase signups or sales).

So that’s our product this weekend. I don’t have a license to add
it to a membership site, but Earn1KaDay members and affiliates can
get it at a cheaper than normal price:

I know that I’m going to test this out. To me, testing something
that might or might not work makes more sense than being all
negative and assuming that something isn’t any good because I
personally don’t like it.

Like I don’t like video sales letters, but those who have tested
them say they improve conversions.

So don’t you think it’s worth $15 to test something that might
work, and maybe make 10% more sales, or 100% more, or 200% more,
rather than assume it won’t do any good?

Makes sense to me.

I do personally like the theory behind PDF Popup Pro, though. Each
to their own. If you can use it, and it works out as well as I
think it will, please let me know or leave us a testimonial.

Again, this probably isn’t for everybody, because everybody isn’t
as aggressively interested in improving sales as others, but if you
are, here you go:

And even if it isn’t right for you, you can still promote it as an
affiliate to those that it is right for. You might be surprised.

Remember, there’s a special section in the forum called “Special
Offers (By Authors), where members offer their products at a
special price to members.

I’d rather not highlight each one individually, so that this email
doesn’t start looking like a classified ad section, but sometimes
you can get some nice bargains and support your forum friends, so
please remember to check it out next time you drop by the forum:
http://www.earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=23

##########

Reminder: If you’re new to Earn1KaDay, or didn’t remember this, all
the weekly emails, from the beginning of time, are archived on the
blog here:
http://www.earn1kaday.net/wp/

If you ever miss an email, or want to check the archives, you can
always go there and do a search.

Another reminder: I get asked (a lot) about the affiliate program
to Earn1KaDay. A thread was set up long ago with details, here:
http://www.earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=417

##########

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.
