Halftime Sale XLIV

It’s time to reveal everything inside this year’s Halftime Sale – and explain how you can win the whole thing, no matter what the score is at the half.

You are going to love how quickly you learn very specific internet marketing strategies with each of the Halftime Sale products I’m including this year. In short, I’ve taken the very best “stand-alone” segments of everything I’ve made over the last 12 months. And I’m including brand new material that has never been released to the public.  Only my top coaching clients have been taught the new material.

I’ll show you what’s inside, but first, let me tell you how you can win it all. In fact, there are 2 winners for this contest…

All you have to do to win is follow these steps:

1. Create your free account for the event (if you haven’t already)
2. Predict the score at halftime. You must clearly designate each team and how many points. For example, last year, the winner would have said: Patriots 7, Giants 3. Just saying 7-3, or Giants 7, Patriots 3 would not have won. You can use P or S for the Steelers, and A or C for the Cardinals if you are that lazy.   If you are the first person to have predicted the right score, then you win the first of 2 prizes. You must have predicted the score before kickoff of the first half (about 6:30 p.m. EST)
3. Refer other members to the site. If someone YOU referred predicts the score and wins, then you win, too. Be sure to use your affiliate link inside the members area in order for me to know the winner was referred by you.

Now let’s take a look at what’s inside. Read more…

Last night’s Halftime Sale was a huge success!

In about 35 total minutes of the sale, affiliates helped 258 people get all 12 of the internet marketing lessons for just $10! Another 10% of those decided to take me up on my special offer for a discounted ticket to the 2008 Success Workshop II – You And Squidoo: Mastering Web 2.0 that starts this Friday.

All told, the Halftime Sale had a Gross Revenue of $5005 before Paypal fees. Affiliates earned about 1/3 of that and will be paid on February 15.

When I was teaching high school history, working 60 hours per week, I made about $3400 in a month after taxes, and all that. After working hard all week, and getting help from so many affiliates, the Halftime Sale brought in the same amount of money in 34 minutes. Still blows my mind!

I tell you this to say what an impact internet marketing has had on my life, and why I am so passionate to help you succeed as well. This sale took a lot of creativity, hard work, and time to develop the products that I included. If you have the same kind of drive to succeed, and you are patient with your results, but persistent with your goals – you will find the journey much more rewarding.

As for the affiliates themselves, I’d like to recognize everyone who helped share the Halftime Sale.

I did not have a contest, but I did keep track.

The top 5 affiliates were:

1. Tim Brocklehurst (the king of viral marketing didn’t promote until the final 24 hours and came out on top!)
2. Matthew Glanfield
3. Todd Gross
4. Chris Morris
5. Larry Dotson (not sure of your website, Larry – sorry!)

Of the 938 members who registered for the site, 524 came from affiliates. Of those, 313 came from these top 5 members (60%).

The following is a list of all the other affiliates who shared the Halftime Sale with at least one other person successfully, in alphabetical order by first name:

• Ajamu Kafele

Now, you may be wondering what’s next.

First, my next “planned” sale like this one is set for November 4, 2008. Obviously, that’s a ways away, but I’ve had the date picked out since mid-2006.

A bit closer on the calendar is the second 2008 Success Workshop, which begins on Friday of this week. It’s a 4-day virtual workshop (February 8, 9, 15, 16) all about Squidoo and Web 2.0. You are invited to join us at 2008SuccessWorkshop.com.

Of course, Halftime Sale 2009 will be in February of next year.

That’s all for now. Make sure you keep up with what else is going on at AskBobTheTeacher.com, or inside our tribe on Ning.

Have a great week!

Half Time Special Offer affiliate-marketing, bob-jenkins, business-building, halftime-sale, internet-marketing-lessons

It’s Thursday, and we’re just a few days away from the best deal on the internet: over $200 worth of products to help you grow your information business in 2008.

Today’s update includes…

• Two new products revealed
• New video bonus added that you can watch right now
• New teleseminar free bonus you can attend on Saturday
• Recap of last night’s Podcasting seminar
• How you can get the recording of the Podcasting seminar before Sunday for free
• How you can win the Halftime Sale Special Offer before it goes live.

Two new products revealed

The Halftime Special Offer includes 7 lessons I have personally created over the last couple of months, some of which have never been released, and others have only been available to paying members of separate sites.

In case you missed it, so far I’ve announced that you can grab two of my recordings from the Solstice Sale, about Affiliate Marketing and List Building.  Both of these calls had great feedback from those who were on the calls live.

Today, I’m excited to reveal two calls that were hosted by two excellent IM teachers, interviewing me about my areas of expertise.

First, I’m including a High Rollers Club call from December.  Glen Hopkins, a best-selling author and mastermind partner, interviewed me about how to take control of your website using your website’s dashboard, or cPanel.

Since this was a call for his monthly mastermind group, I didn’t hold back information, giving specific how-to instruction and explaining why you need to use the key features I taught about.

If you already have the videos at DiscovercPanel, this will be a great refresher.  But if you have never purchased those videos, this will be a great audio session for you to get going right away.

The second product revealed today is even newer.  In fact, it was recorded just last week (January 23).  In my most revealing call I’ve ever done (outside of my private coaching or advanced training courses), I used my own history online as a learning lab for the members of the Beginners Marketing Class.

Chuck Bartok hosted the call, and got me to open up about the biggest obstacles I personally overcame over the last four years in order to succeed online.  I share the failures and the lessons learned from them.  And of course, I dissect the success and what has helped me move forward faster than I could have ever imagined a few years ago.

This call is part of the paid membership at Beginners Marketing Class, and Chuck has allowed me to include it here at a huge discount.

New video bonus added that you can watch right now

Since the Halftime Sale seems so far away, I think you deserve an extra bonus for your patience.

As you may know by now, one of mastermind partners is Matthew Glanfield, a master at traffic and joint venture partnerships.

You may see his name pop up again for one of the products in this sale.  But for now, I got Matthew to let you have one of his newest videos for free.

And you can watch it right inside the members area right now.

This video will teach you how to get a “guru” – or someone with a large list of subscribers – to promote your product or service to his or her list.  I have personally found that getting larger marketers to promote for you is a huge shortcut to success online.  It doesn’t result in millions, of course, but it does move you forward.

Matthew reveals 16 ways to get them to promote for you in this 18 minute video.

Recap of last night’s Podcasting seminar

Did you get on our call last night with Scott Paton?

Scott had so much content to teach us all about podcasting that our 60 minute call turned into an hour and a half.

In short, Scott revealed that podcasting is like having your own radio show, but without the expense of studio time or having to settle for 3 a.m. airtime.

Instead, you can have a show of your own, sharing your expertise with potentially millions of listeners without spending more than $100.

All you need is a microphone, your computer, and a podcasting service like Podomatic (which is free up to a certain number of downloads).

I personally had about 10 ideas coming away from this call, and you’ll see the results of that very soon with my own podcasts.

Did you have ideas or Ah-Has about this call last night?  I’d love for you to share it with a comment below…

The recording of this call will be part of the Halftime Sale as a bonus (not one of the 7 I’ve been telling you about).  But you can get it for free…

How you can get the recording of the Podcasting seminar before Sunday for free

Although Scott did a great job, and I took a lot of notes, I know how much better I’ll learn about podcasting when I hear our call again.

I would like to give you the opportunity to get the recording for free as well, even before Sunday.

All you need to do is refer 3 people to the Halftime Sale website, and you will automatically see the replay in your members area.

Do you think you can tell 3 people how they can get their hands on over $200 worth of internet marketing lessons for such a low price?  I bet you can.

And I’ll reward you with a call that I would normally charge at least $27 for by itself (maybe $10 if I was being really generous and just wanted to build a list).

The three people you refer don’t even have to buy the package on Sunday, although if they do, you’ll receive all the money anyway.

New teleseminar free bonus you can attend on Saturday

Wow, a lot of updates already, but I have two more for you.

One of the most common questions I get on my AskBobTheTeacher.com blog is how to get more traffic without spending a lot of money.

As you may know I wrote the book on Free Advertising over a year and a half ago — The Best Advertising Money Can’t Buy.

In fact, that ebook was my very first product, and it’s time for an update call.

So this Saturday, I’ll be sharing the best free advertising tools to be using in 2008 based on my most recent results with free advertising.

I’ll tell you – I hate spending money on advertising.  So the free stuff is my bread and butter so to speak, and there are definitely great ways to use to counteract the side effects.

So Saturday at Noon EST, you are invited to learn the best free advertising tools I am using in my business.

This call is free to all VIP Access Pass holders, and will be available via Webcast inside the members area.

And if you’re savvy, you’ll use this as a powerful incentive inside your invitation to the Halftime Sale.

Once recorded, this call will be available as part of the Silver Gold, and Platinum memberships at FreeAdReport (if you already have this level, this call will be free to you forever, of course).

But you don’t pay a cent to listen live on Saturday.

How you can win the Halftime Sale Special Offer before it goes live.

Okay, last piece of the update.

I want to give you a chance to win the Halftime Sale Special Offer before it goes on sale on Saturday.

All you have to do is guess the score at Halftime!

Remember, the price of the Halftime Sale Special Offer will be the total combined score of the Patriots and Giants at the half.

If you guess the score exactly right, you win the Halftime Sale Special Offer.

You must guess before Sunday at 6 p.m. EST (before kickoff), and your guess must correctly match the score with the team.

So if it’s Patriots 10, Giants 17, but you said 17-10 Patriots winning, then you don’t win.

There is no limit to the number of people that can win this prize – just as long as you get the score exactly right, and you are a registered VIP Access Ticket holder before Sunday at 6 p.m. EST.

Think you can do guess the score on the button?

Post a comment below with your full name, email address in the form (not in the post), and website address if you have one.

Then tell me 1) what you thought of the podcasting call last night (optional); and 2) what you think the score will be at halftime Sunday night.  Feel free to use P and G for short-hand.

Tomorrow, I’ll reveal two more pieces of the Halftime Sale.
