			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the next few years, those IT guys are going to start getting what they deserve.</p>
<p>By now, your company&#8217;s power-tripping &#8220;get out of my way and let me handle it&#8221; computer specialist has become a cliché. Everyone has an &#8220;IT guy&#8221; story. Saturday Night Live even created a parody of him&#8230; a caricature of the computer geek who has terrorized millions and millions of office workers for the past decade.</p>
<p>They control your computer. They control your Internet access. They control information. Many of them, handed a tiny bit of power for the first time in their lives, enjoy it immensely. My publisher&#8217;s IT guys even have even given themselves the nickname &#8220;IT Overlords.&#8221;</p>
<p>Enter &#8220;cloud computing.&#8221; Enter the era of the laid-off IT guy. </p>
<p>You see, right now, most major corporations include enormous IT departments dedicated to storing and sharing mountains of data. They also own a pile of pricey, custom-developed software that only works on site. </p>
<p>That&#8217;s why cloud computing is catching on so fast. Eventually, companies will be able to sell off their server farms, send their files to someone who can manage them more efficiently&#8230; and fire their IT guys.</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s just the first step. Once things get rolling, companies will be able to plug into the cloud for any IT need – hardware, software, web hosting, networking, etc. And costs will fall, since payment is based on usage not actual hardware. Finally, businesses will be able to focus on what to offer rather than technical details of how to offer the service.</p>
<p>Some of tech&#8217;s biggest names are leading the cloud computing charge. For example, Google&#8217;s internet-based word processor and spreadsheet program are fighting to replace the desktop version of Microsoft&#8217;s Word and Excel. Saleforce.com&#8217;s application allows businesses to centralize software while paying as they go with monthly license fees. VMware&#8217;s &#8220;virtualization platform&#8221; allows data centers and servers to run more efficiently.</p>
<p>Leading IT <a rel="bookmark" href="http://40e2861cocti9z3ty-s7vn3k55.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=OUBLOG" title="research ">research </a>firm Gartner estimates cloud computing revenue will grow at an eye-popping 25% annual clip over the next few years. By 2013, the firm expects the industry to top $150 billion.</p>
<p>Fortunes can be made by catching this massive, long-term trend. However, you won&#8217;t find any five or ten-baggers in the names above. At over $60 per share, Salesforce.com is trading at a stratospheric 100 times this year&#8217;s estimated earnings. VMware is not much better. At 40 times earnings and seven times 2010 revenue, the stock is one bad quarter away from a bloodbath. And tech darling Google only gets a sliver of its revenue from cloud computing. </p>
<p>A better way to jump in today is through the more obscure service providers. These companies provide the physical servers, hosting space, and a means to communicate with them. Prominent names include Equinix (EQIX), Rackspace (RAX), and Terremark Worldwide (TMRK).</p>
<p>I expect to see massive consolidation in the industry over the next decade. The biggest tech names will likely gobble up the smaller players as a cheap way to gain access to the latest breakthroughs. Early shareholders will reap the windfall. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>1. If you sell coffee as a commodity, it&#8217;s worth 2 cents a cup. If you sell it as a good, it&#8217;s worth 25 cents a cup. If you sell it as a service it&#8217;s worth $1.00 a cup. If you sell it as an experience, it&#8217;s $5.00 a cup. <strong>A 250:1 difference between commodity and experience</strong>.</p>
<p>2. Meaning: Getting ahead by slashing prices is cutting your own throat. You MUST take a lead from Starbucks and deliver an entire customer experience. Move UPSTREAM, not down.</p>
<p>3. Your marketing plan MUST include Google. Love &#8216;em, hate &#8216;em, Mother&#8217;s Milk or Big Brother, there is no avoiding this fact.</p>
<p>4. If your marketing plan ONLY includes Google, you&#8217;re an accident waiting to happen. You must invoke the Unlimited Traffic Technique and elevate your conversions to a level where you can compete on any level playing field. Once accept this reality, you liberate yourself from the mosh pit of misery and mediocrity.</p>
<p>5. If you have a successful affiliate business and it&#8217;s still standing, congratulations. You still have time to move to higher ground. Time to move NOW.</p>
<p>6. Regardless of where you buy clicks, if you don&#8217;t have an Autoresponder sequence, you&#8217;re leaving 2/3rds of the money on the table.* Social Media is a freaking a waste of time compared to just TEN well-written emails. In my opinion if you don&#8217;t have AR&#8217;s in place you&#8217;re lucky to still be alive.</p>
<p>7. The principle of the Slight Edge says: If you&#8217;re just 5% better than everyone else you get 50% more of the spoils.</p>
<p>8. There is no such thing as One Single Ideal marketing message, anymore than there is One Single Ideal shrub in the jungle. What you need is a toolbox of effective hooks that work with different kinds of people. That is the premise of the Swiss Army Knife.</p>
<p>9. <strong>Market Research is crucial</strong>. In 2004 you could afford to sling mud against the wall. Not in 2010. Ask your prospects the right 3 questions and sort the data right and your chances of success in a startup go from 5% to 50% overnight.</p>
<p>10. Most people now are on the defensive. They&#8217;ve shuttered their doors and windows and they&#8217;re trying to ride out the recession. That&#8217;s just slow motion suicide. Those who prevail have decided to be 21st century alchemists and every single day they&#8217;re trying to figure out how to deliver a more awesome customer experience.</p>
<p></p> insidious &#8220;X Factors&#8221; that will drown most AdWords advertisers this year</strong></p>
<p>1. Conversion rates in free-fall: Your conversions are half what they were 18 months ago. But the clicks still cost more than they did then. What do you do about that?</p>
<p>2. “What are Google searchers actually looking for?” Your market is shifting unpredictably. Prospects who search Google aren’t asking the same question they were asking this time last year. Your market is more complex now and your position in the food chain is different. Have you changed accordingly?</p>
<p>3. There are growing numbers of deeply competitive markets where not one single advertiser is turning a profit. There are some niches where this shouldn’t be terribly surprising; certain parts of the business opportunity market have been this way for years. But now I’m seeing this in other, unexpected places. There is a constant churn of new advertisers and/or “stupid money” that is artificially inflating bid prices. (Yes, even at a time when “stupid money” isn’t supposedly available.) There are all kinds of crazy reasons for this but the bottom line is, you need a way to determine if this is going on – and how to overcome it.</p>
<p>4. Affiliates are hyper-intelligent and they’re everywhere. If you’re not an affiliate, odds are you’re competing with some. If you are an affiliate, odds are you’re competing with a whole bunch of ‘em. (Unless you&#8217;re in a market where they all got slapped.) 5% of the affiliates are making 95% of the money. Which group are you in?</p>
<p>5. Google relies heavily on real human beings to review websites. If a Google editor gives you a Quality Score of 1, all the HTML changes in the world will never fix it. If you don’t have an ace Google rep (which generally requires a monthly spend worth of $15,000), it may be impossible to get a straight answer as to why your QS suddenly dropped to 1. But real human beings with $500, $1,000 and $5,000 monthly ad budgets still have to make their businesses work! I’m going to show you how to get around this and play ball with the big boys, no matter what your budget is.</p>
<p>6. When you ask a question, some nameless, faceless person at Google pats you on the head (“Thank you for using Google AdWords”) and sends you a useless, cut-and-paste, non-answer to your question that was written by a committee of recent college grads (Hint: with hundreds of thousands of reasonably funded and fairly ignorant advertisers entering the market on a regular basis, you’re little more than a commodity to Google. Commodity = pawn on a chessboard. Expendable.)</p>
<p>7. Google’s Content Network can deliver gratifying quantities of quality traffic, but to most people it’s a mysterious, money-sucking fog. (Did you know that the colors and layout of the Google AdWords interface are scientifically designed and meticulously tested to vacuum out your wallet while you remain placid, comfortable, unaware?) Only those who know how and where to slice and cross-section their Content Traffic get the rewards.</p>
<p>To know more advance details, well, my colleague Perry Marshall has written a very helpful e-course that you can find out about it here: 2010 Definitive Guide to Google AdWords</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The government has the legal right to access your entire Internet activity history without asking for any permission. It&#8217;s authorized through the Patriot Act, which runs around the Fourth Amendment – &#8220;unreasonable search and seizure&#8221; – by getting the info from Google (or whatever search engine) instead of you. And when you learn just how sophisticated and terrible hackers can be, you realize Google and the government are the least of your worries. </p>
<p>I want to show you how to put your Internet privacy completely back in your own control, by doing two simple things. I&#8217;ve tested all kinds of things that claim to help you retain control of your privacy online. The results, quite frankly, were generally terrible. Most programs resulted in an unacceptably poor Internet experience&#8230; and not much certainty I was doing things a whole lot safer than I was before.</p>
<p><strong>First, I&#8217;ve switched my free e-mail provider.</strong></p>
<p>I have switched out of Yahoo and Google over to Hushmail, a privacy-focused e-mail provider based in Canada. The benefit here is U.S. authorities can&#8217;t cite the Patriot Act and get whatever they want.</p>
<p><strong>Second, I&#8217;m now surfing the Internet securely and anonymously.</strong></p>
<p>I am currently using what I&#8217;ve found to be an extraordinary service&#8230; from CryptoHippie (<a href="http://www.cryptohippie.com">www.cryptohippie.com</a>). Long-story short, it makes it so nobody – not Google, not even your Internet service provider, not the government, and (theoretically of course) not a hacker – can track your Internet activity back to you.</p>
<p>This service is not free, but it&#8217;s worth every penny. (I tried the &#8220;free&#8221; and cheap services, but you don&#8217;t want them&#8230; You surf too slowly to be functional and they&#8217;re potentially even riskier than doing nothing at all.) </p>
<p><strong>Third, Internet browsing</strong></p>
<p>One thing you can do is run your Internet browsing program (like Firefox) from a USB flash drive&#8230; you know, the little thumb-sized drives that plug into your USB port. You can actually plug these into any computer and start up Firefox straight off of the USB flash drive. You can then leave without leaving a trace on the computer you used. Or, if you&#8217;re a bit more computer savvy, True Crypt (<a href="http://www.truecrypt.org">www.truecrypt.org</a>) is quite an impressive little security program. But True Crypt really takes security pretty far. Check them out. They&#8217;re worth it. </p>

<p>2. Twitter will get sold to a larger company for less than the $500 million they turned down from Facebook in 2009.</p>
<p>3. The next rage in pay per click is cookie-ing visitors on your site and then having targeted contextual ads &#8220;stalk your prospects&#8221; on other sites as they surf the Internet. Jonathan Mizel will cover this extensively in a January 29 teleseminar.</p>
<p>4. By 2014 the newspaper will be drastically different than it is now. Most local papers will have vanished; large pubs will consolidate down to just a few like the New York Times, USA Today and the Wall Street Journal. Sorry, but there&#8217;s no need for 200 different newspapers to all be running the same stories from the wires; it&#8217;s duplicate content. Meanwhile a minority of high-traffic bloggers will be identified as doing better <a rel="bookmark" href="http://40e2861cocti9z3ty-s7vn3k55.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=OUBLOG" title="research ">research </a>with better reporting and less bias than the traditional media.</p>
<p>5. The music industry is headed in the same direction. The bands that succeed during the next 10 years will be the ones who figure out how to connect directly to their audience via social media and direct marketing. Recently I had a conversation with a recording artist whose advance for making a CD has shriveled from $50K+ down to $15K now, because piracy and digital distribution are shrinking the pie. He can&#8217;t depend on them to bring him an audience anymore. (Does that sound at all familiar?) Neil Peart of Rush said essentially the same thing, reporting they want to do an album in 2010 but the record company won&#8217;t pay for it. The band is now in search of some other mechanism. I predict that membership and continuity models are the future of the music industry.</p>
<p>6. There will always be demand for excellent content, regardless of what happens to TV networks, record companies, etc. Case in point: DVD and iTunes sales of TV series like &#8220;24&#8243; and &#8220;Lost&#8221; are strong, because those shows are superbly produced. I bought the first four seasons of 24, myself. The worst place to be in media is in the &#8220;expensive bureaucratic mediocre middle.&#8221;</p>
<p>7. I gave away some Amazon Kindles for Christmas this year, and electronic books are most definitely on the rise. Electronic readers are awesome, they&#8217;ll become the norm, and the future is not bright for traditional printing and publishing models. However… excellent magazines and books will NEVER disappear. Ever.</p>
<p>8. The traditional HTML website site hand-crafted by an HTML editor and uploaded via FTP is fast becoming a relic, replaced by Content Management Systems and platforms like WordPress and Joomla.</p>
<p>9. There is a small, vocal minority of people that insist that in biology, evolution is entirely purposeless and random. This crowd dominates the current academic scene and cooks up anti-scientific theories like &#8220;Junk DNA.&#8221; My professional experience in our fast-evolving, &#8220;darwinian&#8221; online world tells me, evolution is supremely intelligent, NOT random. The intellectual Berlin Wall of 19th century Darwinism will crack in 2013. A 21st century version of evolution is coming, one that doesn&#8217;t sneer at religion. I blogged about this last week.</p>
<p>10. Wikipedia will silence its critics. Obviously it&#8217;s immensely practical and it&#8217;s worked, having entirely replaced the traditional encyclopedia. However, vandalism is a constant problem for some categories. Wikipedia has always had a reputation for smearing controversial people and topics. But they&#8217;re cleaning up, and for the most part doing an excellent job. I made a donation for the first time the other day and I think Wikipedia has made a huge contribution to the speed of getting <a rel="bookmark" href="http://40e2861cocti9z3ty-s7vn3k55.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=OUBLOG" title="research ">research </a>done. Nothing has done more for bringing the Open Source movement to the masses.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>At the end of the last decade…</strong></p>
<p>* Dotcom stocks were heading straight up in one of the biggest orgies of manic stock buying the world has ever seen<br />
* Banner ads were selling at massive (and irrational) premiums<br />
* Pay-per-click advertising (then offered by just one company, GoTo.com) was considered an oddity<br />
* Yahoo was the 800 pound gorilla in Internet media<br />
What a difference ten years can make</p>
<p><strong>Today:</strong></p>
<p>* The NASDAQ still hasn’t come even close to recovering its Year 2000 heights<br />
* Banner ads are sanely priced<br />
* Yahoo appears totally hopeless<br />
* Pay-per-click advertising (mainly in the form of Google AdWords) has taken over the world</p>
<p><strong>The turn around</strong></p>
<p>In spite of the crash of bogus Internet companies, the Internet itself was as solid as a rock – and it was going to grow, this time for real.</p>
<p>The big change was that Internet advertising was going to be based on careful calculations of ROI (return on investment.)</p>
<p>In a way, this was nothing new. Old school direct marketers have been tracking the profitability of their ad buys for decades.</p>
<p>Thanks to its PPC revenues, some say that Google is poised to take over the earth.</p>
<p>Not so fast Google</p>
<p>Here’s what absolutely won’t change in the coming decade:</p>
<p>* The Internet will continue to be a central part of hundreds of millions of people’s lives. If anything, it will become even more central as the Internet solidifies its position as the “central switching station” for all media: text, audio, video, buying, selling, communicating, chatting, gossiping etc.)</p>
<p>* Consumers will continue to seek VALUE in their purchases and if my crystal ball is working, they will be even more militant about getting value for their money in the years to come.</p>
<p>* Advertisers – the ones who are going to survive that is – are going to become even more sophisticated about tracking their results and making sure they get the best possible value for their money.</p>
<p>What this is going to look like is smart Internet marketers diversifying away from Google AdWords.</p>
<p>AdWords will continue to be an important part of the mix, but anyone who is not taking energetic, aggressive steps to free themselves from dependence on Google for their traffic is going to have cause for regret.</p>
<p><strong>Strategy for System 2010</strong></p>
<p>Copywriting is the switch that turns raw traffic into money.</p>
<p>I don’t know how to state it forcefully enough but here goes: Traffic is worthless without masterful conversion and conversion is just a fancy word for ad copy, so in a very real way the whole game of Internet marketing boils down to copywriting.</p>
<p>In all the noise about Twitter, Facebook and other “mindshare building tools” a lot of internet marketers have lost sight of what matters in Internet marketing.</p>
<p>To bring us all back to reality in 2010, I’m bringing in two Big Guns of the copywriting world to System 2010 – both multi-decade veterans who write real ad copy for real companies selling real products to real people.</p>
<p><strong>The other piece of the puzzle: traffic</strong></p>
<p>Great copywriting, as important as it is, is not enough.</p>
<p>You need the second part of the equation: traffic.</p>
<p>I’m a big fan of SEO, article marketing, JVs, viral marketing and all the other “free” ways you can drive traffic on the Internet. Over the years, we’ve offered scores of trainings and master classes on these subjects.</p>
<p>But none of these methods can hold a candle to the simple, reliable method of simply buying the traffic you need.</p>
<p>If you want to maximize your potential on the Internet, buying traffic is where it’s at.</p>
<p>If you’re already a traffic buyer you already know that Internet traffic is the Eighth Wonder of the world.</p>
<p>You can buy a little, test it, amplify what works and turn off what doesn’t.</p>
<p>It takes skill, know-how and paying attention, but knowing how to buy Internet traffic comes as close to money-on-demand as anything on earth.</p>

<p>David King sent a message to the members of Twitter&#8230; You follow me&#8230; I follow you.</p>
<p><strong>Subject: $887.9 Million in 10 years?</strong></p>
<p>The Ceo of Zappos Tony Hsieh just recently sold zappos to amazon for approximately 887.9 Million dollars&#8230; Did you hear about it?</p>
<p>isn&#8217;t that amazing?</p>
<p>with over 1 million twitter followers and growing he definitely understood the power of twitter in his business.</p>
<p>in 1999 http://www.facebook.com/l/;zappos.com was registered and from 1999 he built a extremely successful business all by knowing one HUGE secret.</p>
<p>and that HUGE secret is this&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;The customer is always right and make sure they are happier than happy with their purchase and they will continue to give you money for the rest of their lives&#8221;</p>
<p>So how exactly did Tony Hsieh discover how to make such a profitable business, connect with his customers and grow zappos so large?</p>
<p>how is honestly beyond me at this point&#8230;</p>
<p>But I know for a fact that over 1 million twitter followers is one way to help his customers stick and use his customers to get viral buzz that grows his company even more.</p>
<p>Zappos connected with his customers and grew that relationship and because of that there were more and more people that liked zappos and continued to buy.</p>
<p>Think about it&#8230; when you have customers that continue to buy from you and you continue to get new customers what do you get?</p>
<p>A HUGELY successful business that grows like crazy!</p>
<p>That is exactly how Tony made a $887.9 million dollar business in 10 years.</p>
<p>If Tony is connecting with a million twitter followers and continuing to use twitter to leverage his business shouldn&#8217;t you be?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s time to step up to the plate and hit a home run&#8230;</p>
