A Christmas Gift From Mike Klingler -- And Why I Don't Believe in Santa Clause Internet Marketing
It's December 25th and I've got a Christmas present for you...
I'm going to tell you exactly what makes me money every day on the Internet without me EVER having to rely upon a program.
Because you see...
You don't need to join programs to make money on the Internet--only beginners rely on programs to make money... and those people almost NEVER make money.
I call this the "Santa Clause Internet Marketer"... because they always believe the next program will make them money but it never actually shows up on the roof with the reindeer.
I was a big promoter of Agloco--and I don't regret it. There is nothing wrong with believing in a program as long as you don't bank your entire business on it! It doesn't matter for my business if Agloco fails and that was why I could afford to put my energy into promoting it... if it failed, I still made money because I have an email list.
Do you want to know how to do things this way... to make money whether or not the programs you like wins or flops?
Hint: You have to learn how to provide value to people (to your target market). It can be a lot easier than it sounds... and it's a lot easier than jumping around from program to program wishing that 'this one will work.'
I think it's absolutely ridiculous when I see people promoting Internet programs, like Agloco, or anything else, when that's all they are doing to make money with the Internet.
Look, you will never make good money on the Internet unless you FIRST learn how to promote yourself and SECOND promote other programs.
You see, programs, like Agloco, come and go. Some of them pay and some of them don't. Some of the last and some of them, like Agloco, never make it off the ground. The bigger the vision (like Agloco had) the bigger the opportunity and the greater chance it won't make it off the ground.
That doesn't mean you stop promoting Internet programs... it means you learn how to build a business on the Internet that can't fail by relying on yourself (not on the programs themselves).
Here's what I mean...
You must learn how to build your own email list. You must learn how to make money from this list (we call this monetization).
When you're getting started you must choose one target market... this means you choose one group of people that is specific who have an identifiable need that you can fill.
I'm going to let you in on one of the biggest money making secrets on the Internet right now.
By far, the best target market for a new person to focus on building an email list is network marketers. Why?
Because more than any other single group on the planet, network marketers are willing to spend money on information that can assist them. And they are coming to the Internet in huge numbers right now throwing money at everything and anything that can teach them how to use the Internet to build their network marketing business.
I don't care if you're in network marketing. It doesn't matter if you know much about network marketing (at least right now).
You should always study your target market, but you have to do that anyway no matter what market you go after. I suggest, if you're looking for a sure fire way to make money on the Internet you do what I do... you focus on providing value to network marketers.
Because...
It's the easiest group to grow an email list the fastest, and
It's the fastest growing single group of people running to the Internet for information on how to build their business, and
They are willing to spend money on anything that will help them learn how to do marketing online and to attract prospects to them
Network marketers are fed up with their own industry. They are tired of chasing down friends and family to sell their products and opportunities. They are sick of being made fun of for silly 'marketing' strategies that require cold calling and prospecting their neighbors. They are hungry for learning real marketing on the Internet. I will show you how simple it is to sell to them... all over the world with a simple strategy.
I will give you all my secrets. I'll show you how I made over $5018 in my first few weeks this summer selling just one powerful information product to other network marketers while building a huge email list.
With an email list like this you can sell future products that they will want.
You can do a JV (joint venture) opportunity with a capable network marketer who will call the leads and build a downline for you--really, if you find a good one (I know some) this is a reality...
Growing your own email list and making money on that list is, by far, the best way for anyone, whether you are new or experienced, to make money on the Internet.
I said I'd give you my secrets...
I'll give you the same tools I've been using to build my list and market to network marketers.
Here is a web system I created, which you can have completely free... The Renegade Network Marketer University.
It may take you a few weeks, or even a few months to learn how to do exactly what I do... but the truth is you CAN.
The system you're about to see is targeted for network marketers but if you understand what I just shared with you than you realize that you can use this to 'market' and sell to network marketers... and to build your own email list just as I do... even if you're not a network marketer yourself.
I'll be sharing more soon. In the mean time you can register at The Renegade System University
Study everything there. Follow the steps. Dont' be a wimp. Do what it takes and follow those who have accomplished what you want... that's what I did.
I will teach you how I make a healthy six figure income over the Internet. You just have to be willing to work, read, invest into the RIGHT things... and take action.
Partners in success,

What Happened to Agloco and What You Can Do About It...
EMAIL I SENT TO COMMUNITY ON DECEMBER 14TH...
Hi everyone,
If you didn't get the email that Agloco recently sent to the membership it basically said they are throwing in the towel... in other words, they don't want to invest into the concept any longer and are probably going to fold up shop. For my foreign friends reading this, that means Agloco has admitted they are most likely quitting.
I can't say I blame them. If you aren't making enough money to pay the bills you have to do something differently. They have no experience with marketing so they really only had one shot and it looks like they missed... that is no reason to be upset with them or yourself if you believed in it. It's called business and if you haven't been a part of failure than you are a long way from success. So chalk this one up on the board as a failure and realize it just puts you one step closer to the big win. (Below I will give you an extremely valuable suggestion about what you can do next to gaurantee your success... which means to stop promoting programs until you do one very important thing first... I explain below).
But first, here are my final thoughts on Agloco... My personal opinion is that Agloco failed because they didn't know enough about Internet marketing. They had vision and some youthful energy with good educations, but they didn't know how to monetize a web site or community.
It would have been easy and inexpensive to create a social networking platform and generate cash flow. It also would have been extremely easy to attempt to monetize their Agloco site as well.
They also could have monetized their email list---which was over a million... by providing value and in exchange selling various information products. They could have made some good money by following common sense monetization strategy, but they did not have that experience. Their mistake is common--it's called tunnel vision. They wanted a view bar. They envisioned a business model with monetizing a view bar. So that's all they did. And since that clearly requires a lot more resources to develop, they could have only saved themselves by creating income from new sources from the community they established, which they just didn't know how to do.
So there we have it. Agloco is most likely dead. Let's get over it... now what?
I do not believe that business stands still. Just because a good idea doesn't work the way you want it to... that is certainly no reason to quit on your dreams. People are doing extremely well financially with the Internet (I can include myself in that group, and I personally know dozens of people who have created anywhere between a six figure income on up to tens of millions (yes, really). Maybe all you want is a couple hundred or perhaps a few thousand per month... I don't know. What I do know is that you can do it much more easily than you think. It's easier than learning how to play the guitar--I can promise you that. But it's probably going to require more work than most people are willing to put in (in fact, I can say for sure that most people are not cut out for anything more than a job). Only you can decide if you're willing to stick at it. If you are, I would be happy to guide you along the way with tips and tools... some of them completley free.
Of course my time is valuable, just like yours--so I can't just take you by the hand and put in countless hours on the phone to show you the ropes unless you are willing to pay me for that time. My current rate is $200 per hour. But there is something I'm willing to offer to you for free. I will teach you, over time, through my emails, how I generated $5000 in my first month selling my first affiliate commission product. I'll describe how I built my first solid email list... I'll explain what target market will make you the most money over the next two years (we'll talk about trends and timing and how you can capitalize without even relying on a program to do it)... and I'll show you how you can build your own email list so you are always making money no matter what programs come, go, rise or fall.
The ONE THING I'd like you to take from this email is this...
The very best thing you can do is focus on creating an email list of your own. These can't just be any emails but ones you have collected yourself. However, how you collect them will make a huge difference in how much money you will make from them. And what you do after you have collected those emails matters as much as anything if you want to make good money from it.
Building a list is much more profitable than starting out promoting other programs (like Agloco). Once you have a list, then and only then, can you really expect to be successful.
My next email will introduce you to the method I used to create my list. I'll show you exactly how I did it. And I'll give you a free tool that will allow you to do it as well. By the way, I will soon be turning my blog, called www.TheLeaderBlog.com into a support site for you on this very subject.
Until then,
Mike Klingler
P.S. Would you like to advertise for free? Here is where I generate sales and leads every day while making a little money as I build my list at the same time. This has no cost: http://www.trafficswarm.com/go.cgi?581657 (you need to go to this entire web address or you will not be in my group to receive future assistance with this).
P.S.S. Do you already have a list and are looking to promote something? Here is one I suggest (also no cost although it pays and it is a similar model to Agloco: http://www.yuwie.com/yuwie.asp?r=239887&vid=
P.S.S. Do you have a good ranking on the search engines with Agloco and want to promote something else on that position .... I suggest: http://www.yuwie.com/yuwie.asp?r=239887&vid=
