It’s been very interesting last few years. When I first got started, the very first marketing package I purchased was Mike Filsaime’s Butterfly Marketing. I scrimped and saved every last penny in order to purchase the $1997 course, only to find out that exactly 18 days later, it would be available as a download version for a fraction of the cost. I missed the boat on that one.

Butterfly Marketing Giveaway

A few months back, Mike decided to give away the Butterfly Marketing course. Don’t get me wrong, it’s an incredible course, but several people who spent lots of money on the course were a little upset that it was being given away for free. But, I guess that’s to be expected in the Internet Marketing industry.

Of course, there was an optional continuity program you were offered to get Mike’s newsletter. Either way, it was a good opportunity for many getting started to get a high dollar course.

Butterfly Marketing Script Goes Open Source with PLR

Many of you probably won’t know what that means. Others know exactly what that means. You can get access to the script that was being sold for $2000. You can then use the script any way you like and even put your name on it and call it your own.

Why’s that important? Well, if you’re a programmer or have access to someone with programming skills, you could modify the Butterfly Marketing Script, change the look, add some features, rebrand it, and sell it for a profit.

Sound Good? Sure it is. Will you ever “bottle it” and sell it as your own? Realistically, probably not.

Personally, I like the concept of having access to it if I ever needed it for anything else.

What’s the Catch?

So here’s the catch. Yes, the Butterfly Marketing Script is now open source and with full Private Label Rights. You can download it for Free with absolutely no obligation.

The catch is that if you want support and to be able to learn how the script works, and get access to other developers, you need to pay a fee to join the developer network.

I’ve seen some software moving in this direction, but not much. Do you need to join the developer network? If you’re planning on developing the script further and making changes, I think it would be helpful. As a programmer having been inside the code and use it myself, it can be cumbersome. Having that additional help would be worthwhile.

If you’re not a programmer and have no immediate plans to do anything with the software, just grab your open source copy and hang on it.

It’s interesting how things change so quickly with technology and Internet Marketing.

Just a year ago, long form sales letters were all the rage. Everyone needed an expensive copywriter.

Now, video sales letters are popping up all over the place and more and more products are being sold exclusively through video.

The problem is, if you’re an affiliate marketer and not selling a product of your own, you most likely will think that there is no need for video.

That couldn’t be further from the truth.

Video Marketing for Affiliates

Video marketing has been used by affiliates for a while, but many of them just don’t know how to take advantage of all of the benefits that are available to them.

Yes, sites like Youtube and Facebook are great for posting videos, but if you aren’t providing the right message in your videos then you are missing out.

What to Include in Your Videos

Whether you want to get on camera yourself, create a simple slideshow or something more fancy with complicated video editing software, you need to have the right message.

• Including an attention grabbing first 10 seconds. This can be an engaging question that get’s the viewer thinking, a comment or shocking statement or eye catching graphic.
• Build a better body…what I mean here is have some “meat” in your video. Add some content that answers the questions your viewer wants to know more. This could be a handful of statements on a topic, some bullet points, step by step instructions or even more leading questions.
• Call to Action – Many videos lack this key element. After your viewer has spent their time watching your video message, what do you want them to do. Tell them exactly what you expect of them. That includes “Go to this website for more information”, “For the second half of this video go to..”, “Call 1-800.#### for more information”, “Claim your free download at…”

Getting your Videos Noticed

In the next post, I’m going to cover a few easy and free methods for getting your videos noticed and index online without a lot of effort.

There seems to be no slowing down in the Social Media industry. Facebook and Twitter are still the rage. However, the problem is still Social Media overload. Some Internet Marketers believe that Facebook and Twitter are the place to spread affiliate links and never share any good, helpful information.

In my own opinion, it’s those people that may never get ahead, learn more and move beyond their current level.

Alright, that may sound a bit harsh. There are good methods of marketing on social media sites, and that is something I’ve taught and discussed in previous training videos, however, a vast majority of the culprits are pimping IM/Making Money products and not providing any value.

The true value of Social Media

When it comes to Social Media, the best use I can think of is connecting with like minded people. It’s sometimes difficult to do in venues like facebook and twitter because there is so much noise out there.

It’s always refreshing to share good ideas, content and information with others in the industry. It’s these connections that lead to Joint Ventures, Ad Swaps and long lasting partnerships.

At the beginning of December, I had the chance to hang out with Chuck Mullaney, the creator of JVMe.com . This is a social networking site that integrates with Twitter and Facebook and is much more Marketer Friendly. It’s a great resource for sharing information, finding great JV partners and learning more about Internet Marketing from experts.

The site is free to join and if you’re the least bit interesting in Internet Marketing it’s something I recommend.

No less than 4-5 times a week I receive an email from someone and within the subject I see “(Personal)”. This used to mean something to me when I saw it.

It used to mean that the email author took the time to personally write me an email outside of their normal email blasts.

It used to mean that they actually mentioned something personal about me, how they knew me, how we connected and what they want to do for me and have me do for them.

It used to be something I could trust and I was actually excited about receiving, especially when it was from a big name in the industry or that I wouldn’t normally hear from.

Now what it means is that I first think this is another trick to get me to open their email selling me something, or that it is a broadcast email thinly disguised as a personal email.

Internet Marketers are lazy as it is, but now they are getting really lazy, making mistakes and those that really care are suffering.

What personal means to me..

I’m guilty of using “(Personal)” in an email subject.  However, I only use it in these 2 ways.

Personal Use #1: When I  send an email to someone that receives tons of emails and I really want to capture their attention and the email is specific and personal to them and only them.  But I don’t just stop at using “(Personal”) and some generic subject. I follow it up with something that wouldn’t be in a broadcast message. Something that really is personal to them, that will catch their eye and that will trigger a memory.

Personal Use #2: I’ve only used this once, and really hesitated doing it at all. However, when I sent an email to my subscribers about something that was personally going on in my life, that I wanted to share with them.

It’s about building trust and connecting

I recently read an article about Internet Marketing and Jason Moffatt was interviewed. Jason made a statement that is missed by so many people trying to get started in Internet Marketing. It’s about building trust. You have to connect with your subscriber and your customer.

People are willing to buy items and take advice from people that they trust, that are transparent and share openly and willingly. Being deceptive is never an option.

What does it do to your level of trust when you receive an email with a subject of  ”Personal” and it’s an obvious broadcast email? That trust factor just got ratcheted back a bit, if not completely removed.

Let’s hear from you..

Tired of seeing this so called personal emails? What emails get your attention first and which are the first to hit the trash folder?

These here interwebs are being overrun by tons of people hyping their latest product on CPA how to’s. The worst part about many of these products is that most of the authors are just ripping off someone elses product. It’s basically a transfer of one product to another.

However, in the last few months, I’ve come across some people that really know what they’re talking about.

If you’ve landed on this page you’re probably serious about learning more about CPA and more tha likely looking for an aggressive affiliates review. Others are probably hoping that I’m going to dish out a solid aggressive affiliates bonus package. If you’re looking for either…today you’re in luck… but there is so much more.

Bottom line, the two people behind Agressive Affiliates have had substantial success in the online, internet marketing industry for quite some time.

Eric Rockefeller and Peter Parks are both super affiliates. They are both making serious online income. And they both have lots of success with CPA offers.

On September 2, 2009, Aggressive Affiliates will go live and Erock and Peter Parks will be openly explaining how they have been dominating the google content network with CPA offers.  These are serious techniques that are currently earning their students over $50,000/month.

What is a CPA offer?

CPA stands for Cost Per Action and it’s something that has been around for quite a while. However, recently, people have really been learning exactly how profitable getting involved in CPA networks can be…but it must be done correctly. In most cases, CPA offers are online offers that you would drive search traffic, PPC traffic or email traffic to. The offers may require the user to simply enter a zipcode, an email address or a phone number. Each time someone takes action, you would get paid. More complex actions, like ordering a free sample, complete a more complex form etc. would earn you more money….sometimes upwards of $25, $35 or even $50 per action.

Who are Peter Parks and Eric Rockefeller?

Eric Rockefeller AKA ERock, is a super affiliate. He’s been pulling in solid 6 and 7 figure paydays through his online business and has several products of his own.

Peter Parks has been flying under the radar a bit, but he’s been pulled out into the spotlight by his success with Frank Kern’s Mass Control. So much so, that Frank called Peter out of the audience at the recent Mass Control 2.0 seminar and had him share his success with the 300+ attendees. Even more… Frank featured Peter in a video when Peter was able to pull in $25,000 in just a few days using Franks teachings.

Since then, Peter has landed quite a bit more… in fact some of his recent videos show proof in his paypal accounts of near $900, 000 from his online ventures…. come to find out, these are a combination of his Mass Control and CPA efforts… he’s been able to combine the 2 for a reall pay day.

I’m about 7 days behind and scrambling to get everything done since returning from Vegas. I was just at Launch Tree Live and hanging out with some of the top marketers online. It was a VERY intense 5 day trip.

While I was there I had the chance to shoot some very cool videos that I want to share with you. The first video I shot was with 2 of my really good friends, Jonny Andrews and Cam Forbes.

The first video is just Jonny and Cam talking about having the right mindset for succeeding online. The other videos talked about some other really cool stuff.

I had a chance to get Cam to talk about something he calls the 3 P’s, during the video we actually found a few more, so I guess it was really 5 P’s.
