We Recommend…..Nick Wrathall’s Guide To Copywriting

I first met Nick Wrathall in 2003, at Gary & Mark Vurnum’s Internet Marketing seminar in Gatwick. I liked him – he talks a lot of sense and had achieved a lot for one so young!!! We kept in touch spasmodically, meeting up again at the Yanik Silver "Underground" event in 2006.
Nick’s a very gifted copywriter and he’s just sent me his Complete Guide To Copywriting home study course to review – and of course, it’s excellent (if a bit heavy!!). And I have, and we highly recommend it – if you want to learn to DIY copywriting this is an affordable, comprehensive guide with lots of extras.
If you don’t and would rather outsource the whole thing (at a price obviously), contact Hilite (see below) and they can take care of it. We have used Hilite before too, and found them very professional.
Here’s some more info about Nick….from the Hilite Direct Marketing site

Beach Dreams and a Money Gym Chart Hit

This week I’ve been focusing on talking to and meeting up with potential strategic partners for TheMoneyGymClub.com (yes, they came to Shoreham!!). If you have a big on- or offline mailing list, you need to talk to me now, as I have a great win/win offer for you (see the promotion box in the ezine at www.TheMoneyGym.com/ezine)
I’m working on editing the next part of the Live Webcast evening and I’ll post it on the blog and the site as soon as it’s ready. Slow old business, not least because my lappie is groaning under the programmes loaded onto it now! A new one can’t be far off.
One week to go to the annual Adur Festival and my favourite part of it, Beach Dreams – the excitement is really mounting here on the Beach. The marquee is up and busy selling tea and lots of lovely homemade cake – donated by local people and sold to go to the fireworks fund. You practically have an obligation to eat at least three pieces of cake a day!!
On the Saturday night, we have all been invited to a lovely party on “millionaires row” (the other side of the road where the houses have gardens that actually back on to the beach…..
What’s A Razor Got To Do With Customers?

Recently I talked about your directional pipeline and how sometimes you’ll be approached by prospects who just don’t fit with what you want to achieve? We looked at the different types of prospect – Desperate, Curious and Inspired.
Well, now we’re going to have a think about what might happen if you realise you have some of the desperate or curious people as your clients. Oh, the shame!
One of the tools we use is called the Brand Power Wheel – not got one of these? Then read on and I’ll tell you how to get one in a moment.
The Brand Power Wheel really helps you to identify what’s important to you and the way you work, so you can see whether prospects (people who haven’t bought yet) and clients (those who have) fit with your values and beliefs.
What we find is that…
Webinars and Wayward Teens

It’s been a very “interesting” week, what with Half Term and the hard launch of our new membership site at www.TheMoneyGymClub.com. Also a rather major family crisis to get through……
Mostly all positive though……..in summary, we have created and launched the Gold Express level of The Money Gym Club and signed up our first couple of clients to that. We’ve firmed up our Mastermind Club offering, we hosted our first “Wealth Creation Burning Question” webinar on Tuesday, Judith is podcasting our ezines and the Wealth Tips, I’ve nearly finished editing our next video for Google Video and YouTube, we’ve got our Money Gym Club podcast onto iTunes………wow, wow, wow!
In some ways I feel like my life has been on hold for the last three months, while we raced to get the site up, fill it up with the basics and then work through the launch process. On a practical level, it’s all there now, largely working fine, all the existing clients and early bird people are in now and I hope to be able to throttle back a bit and get out and about a bit more and get back to speaking and networking.
It’s a bit like you are holding your breath, waiting to see if it will “work” and keeping the negative and limiting beliefs at bay (oh, yes! dear reader, we still battle with those ole demons too!) while all the time trying to make it as good as it can be, testing the functionality, letting people know it’s coming……..but still wondering if it will “work”.
And hardest of all for me, is that this was such a large project, we had to put pretty much everything else on hold and FOCUS. Scary stuff. What if it didn’t work?
What do we mean by “work”?
I mean work not just on a micro level, with the software, the membership levels, uploading, letting people register, the affiliate scheme, signing up for the different levels, taking the money, delivering the materials……….all that’s the easy bit.
I mean work on a…
The Disease To Please

by Annie Kaszina, Money Gym Wealth Coach
Do you ever feel that people are not listening to you? You tell them what you expect and they totally disregard you? You can point out to them something that is really, really important to you and they go straight on, blithely doing exactly what they were doing before?
Or maybe you’re so sensitive to other people’s needs that you fall over yourself to help them, even before they’ve tried to deal with the problem themselves. Well, you know of old that they probably lack the time or the know-how that you have. Besides, they seem to expect it of you, and you wouldn’t want to let them down now, would you?
The only problem is that you’re only human too and there comes a time when ‘things’ get on top of you and you need a helping hand. But you don’t like to ask. You really shouldn’t have to ask, should you? Maybe, like me, you’ve heard the old saying: “if you really want to help, you won’t wait to be asked” and lived by it, or maybe you’ve just sensed it. Either way, there are moments when you find yourself thinking:: “Surely I’m entitled to something after all I’ve done for them.” But it doesn’t seem to work like that.
Do you ever get the feeling that…

I Made A Sale! I Made A Sale!

Hi, Nicola -
Hope you and the team are well…..I had to email you and say I got my very first affiliate income on Clickbank! It was only $16.56 but it’s income, it’s real and I did it. $16.56!!! It proves I can earn money on the Net and outside my regular day job. $16.56!! Thank you x millions for setting me on my way. It took me exactly a year but it happened. $16.56!!!! It barely covers what I spent on Adwords promoting the product but now I have proof it works I can start tweaking and learning and refining until what I earn from it begins to overtake what I spend. I get it now! $16.56!!
Thank you so much, Nicola! Have a wonderful Monday! Excuse me while I continue to turn cartwheels and gurgle…
Hugs and healing
Viviana Lotti
PS: Did I mention I made $16.56 affiliate income?
Playing The Prosperity Game Again!

Nicola says:
I struggle a bit with the whole Secret / Attraction thing as you know. I’m a great believer in positive thinking and I love TUT’s Message from the Universe (www.Tut.com) and I do believe "Thoughts Become Things, Think Good Ones" but I’m not good at sustaining the regular repetitive actions that it seems to require, to make it all work.
After a brief flirtation (up to Day 6) of the Prosperity Game, after being invited to speak for Judith and Marion’s ABC Coaching Group, I’ve decided to give it a real go this time. If you don’t know about the Prosperity Game you can find it here
www.choosingprosperity.com/game
One of the exercises is to write out the following, addressed to your version of the Universe …
"Dear TUT
~ I want to believe that I can affect the prosperity that shows up in my life.
~ I want to experience that prosperity can come from unexpected sources.
~ I want to believe that good things can come to me through ‘play’ and ‘flow’ rather than only through hard work.
~ I want evidence that there is a practical strategy around creating prosperity that provides tangible results.
~ I want evidence that the idea of ‘creating prosperity from the inside-out’ is not just wishful thinking.
I am asking for observable and quantifiable proof that I can attract more prosperity within the next four weeks.
I am open to this prosperity arriving and taking the form of:
~ unexpected money coming into my life this month ~ unexpected gifts coming my way this month ~ clear inspiration leading me to new opportunities ~ a feeling of relief from fear, stress, sadness or discomfort ~ …..
I am ready for a breakthrough. I am ready to see things in a different way.
And so it is!
Nicola

I’ll let you know how it goes!
