Well yesterday was the first day of my coach and mentor’s new course for Newbies 2.0. Mark Terrell has invited previously students to join the class again so I accepted the offer. This course is slightly different to the first course and Mark said he will be teaching new material and that is what I love – learning new lessons.

I find Internet Marketing is such a massive subject and I do not understand people who think they can learn it from buying books. Even some people buy ebook or video courses, sometimes costing thousand of dollars, but find that without support they are lost. You must have support and coaching if you want to master this subject in a logical, methodical way.

What I love about this course is the support that each individual student receives. Although I completed the originally Newbies course, there are still two things that I know of, that I didn’t do. So now I have my chance to fix that. Isn’t it funny how we all like to put off the things that we are not comfortable in doing? That is what I did  and now I have the chance to redo the course and complete the missing parts. Maybe I am a little more experienced now so things might not seem so daunting the second time.

You are probably wondering what I failed to do. Well, one was putting a question and answer page on my blog and the other was to write a report and put it into Warrior Special Offers. I am not even sure that both of these things will be a requirement but I should imaging they will be. After carrying out some research, I have already started writing the report and hope to finish it in a week or two.

So again, I am asking you to join me, the real Sue McDonald on a further step of my IM journey.

Hi Guys this is Sue and I have some great news from you.

My good friend, coach/mentor Mark Terrell begin_of_the_skype_highlighting     end_of_the_skype_highlighting, has just launched his Coaching Newbies2.0 Course! This guy is making serious cash online and he’s about to show you exactly how he does it! He taught me so much and now I would love for you to be able to progress and make money on line without having to spend a fortune to do it.

If you read my earlier blogs, you will see that before I found Mark and his course, I had virtually spent a heap of money trying to master Internet Marketing. Don’t believe all that hype – if you are truly serious this is the course for you. Mark over delivers on every aspect but particularly with support. This is one of the easiest courses to follow. I will tell you that places are limited – so Mark makes sure everyone gets skype and email support.

You’ve seen all those Guru’s online showing off their flash cars and houses well the truth is they have really got them! The problem is they don’t show you how they got them….. But now you have the opportunity to learn how to make money online by following a step by step blueprint.

So as I said this is a great opportunity for you to be able to forge ahead of the pack. I want to see you succeed so if there is any help that I can give you or any further questions feel free to ask.

Now why don’t you go and see what Mark is offering – Click here

I’ll see you inside!

Adding Hundreds Of New Subscribers To My List

Hey guys,

I’ve just signed up for the Social Marketing JV 2010.

It’s one of the largest Giveaway Events of the year and if you want to add new subscribers to your list, then this is the place to go to.

For those of you who don’t know what a Giveaway Event is, let me try to explain it in a few words.

A giveaway event is basically a place where several internet marketers create a Team to add new subscribers to their lists.

Every marketer enters a Free Gift into the giveaway event that people
can access once the giveaway event opens.

Also, every marketer promotes the giveaway event, that’s how people
find their way to the event.

The Social Marketing giveaway event is currently in Pre-Launch, that’s the phase when all the internet marketers signup and add their gifts.

If you read this, you are invited to join us in this Pre-Launch phase.

Be aware that this is not a free-ride… you’ll either have to promote the event or you can upgrade your account to add gifts (and other stuff like banners, special offers and your profile with links to your blog, website, twitter and facebook).

Are you ready to join the Team?

Then signup now, Click Here

I’ll see you inside!

I have been issued a challenge by my mentor/coach -  to create an original product for the Warrior Special Offer. I have no PLR as a guide, all I have is my ability to research the subject matter and create my product.

This is a pretty daunting task but I love a challenge so I am just going to see how it works out. The challenge is based on creating a product in your own particular niche and by the time I have completed it,I hope I have a very informative product. So, as I am primarily in the Internet Marketing niche, I have to decided  what subject I want to write about.

Not to make it too easy or too hard I decided to write about how to create a product for any niche. So within the next few days, I will have done all my research and produced my own report. I am thinking of doing it as a video – again, another challenge, because I find video rather frightening.  I believe that if you can produce a product in one niche you can easily produce on in another niche.

The thing is, there are rules to follow when you are creating your own product. Most new marketers like to take a PLR and rewrite a large percentage but I do not have that luxury this time so I will tackle this head on.

When I have completed I will post a link here and then you will be able to go see the results.

So until then, this is Sue saying thanks for reading this and come back in the next few days and I will tell you how I went. I know it will be a fair amount of work but I am sure I will give it my best.

Hi this is still the real Sue McDonald again and I just wanted to tell you about my day – today. I had to start my day at the pathologist because I had to have some blood tests (not my favorite way to start the day). I had to be there for two and a half hours. So not to waste my time, I took along a book to read.

I am really into positive mindset and believing that all things are possible. The book I grabbed running out the door – was “It’s Not About the Money” by Bob Proctor. Now I must admit, I have been a fan of his since I saw him in “The Secret”.

Now what a lot of people fail to appreciate about getting the right mind set, also requires that you have to do some work as well. Dreaming will not achieve your goals. There is a saying “seeing is believing” but Bob has turned that around to read “believing is seeing”- don’t you love it. Too many people focus on the money or the lack there of, and this will never improve their bank balance. Millionaires never think about the money – they know that will come after they have completed their work. Think of what you can do to improve your life. If you are in a job you hate, go to night school and learn other skills to get yourself out of there.

Every person is a sales person – you may not realize it, but that is the truth. You are either selling a service or you are selling a product. If you work in an office you are selling your skills as a service, or as a rep on the road you are selling the company’s product.

We often limit our thought processes and this is what you have to change. You have to believe that anything is possible. The way of life we were all taught was to go to school, go to college, get a job and after your working life was done – retire. This was what we were all taught and this is what we have to change. Think about what you want – and how are you going to achieve it. Again it all comes back to goals and plans. Write your goals down and then write a plan that will allow you to achieve these goals. Be happy as you achieve your milestones along the way, and if you hit an obstacle – think of a way to overcome and get back on track.  This is as simple as it is and you can change your life if you really want to. Never be discourage – stick to the plans to achieve the goal.

Hi- this is the real Sue McDonald and I just wanted to tell you I wrote a blog in March saying I wanted to get this blog to number 1 position under the search of “Sue McDonald”and guess what happened this morning – I finally did it. I typed in Sue McDonald to search in Google and this is what happened. The highest I had ever been before was number 5. Can you image my surprise when I found that “My IM Journey” had reached number 1 out of four and a half million?

It has taken a few weeks and several blog postings but I now know that it was possible. I had some reservations sometimes but I always believed that it could be possible. There it is – that mindset that it was possible. When I wrote the blog ” What’s in a Name” on March 20, there was only a results of 748,000 and I was in position 144. Now there is a massive 4.5 million.

There are several ways that I have been able to achieve this results and if you read through previous blogs you will see how I have used SEO and other methods to get traffic to my site. I must also says thanks to my coach/mentor Mark Terrell, who if he did doubt me when I wanted to get to the top of the search, never said so.

So, if like me, you want to get the top for your particular search, just follow all the rules. If I can do it, you can too. It may be easier for you because you may have less competition. Follow all the steps that I have told you about in my blog posts and I am sure you will achieve the same results.

Well it is happening again. They want to Sue McDonald’s. I type my name in a Google search and this is the type of search results I am getting.

Sue McDonald’s over toys in Happy Meals? Not necessarily, says CSPI director

Kids may be able to continue enjoying Happy Meals after all (AP)

“McDonald’s faces lawsuit over Happy Meals,” reports the LA Times. “McDonald’s and toy lawsuit: Are ‘Happy Meals’ tricking kids?” reads a CBS News headline. A Google News search turns up hundreds and hundreds of similar articles about a looming lawsuit over using Happy Meal toys to illegally market junk food to kids.

But the litigation director of the Washington-based advocacy group threatening legal action told The Daily Caller that his group doesn’t really want to sue.

“We are hopeful that McDonald’s will settle so that we do not have to go to court,” Stephen Gardner of the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) said.

“The CSPI has never even seen the inside of a courtroom. They just use the threat as leverage,” Justin Wilson, senior research director for the Center for Consumer Freedom said in an interview. “This is just another in a long chain of frivolous lawsuits by the CSPI.”’

Hi this is Sue and if you read my blogs, you will know that I am big on goals and having a plan to achieve those goals. Well, that went out the window this week in the worst possible fashion.

On Monday night, I started to feel sick and I thought I had managed to get a “24 hour” virus – so even though I had been sick I told myself, if I could get some sleep I may feel washed out in the morning but well on the way to recovery. I had a very restless night and by the time morning came I was starting to feel a little better. I thought I would just have a little extra time in bed and catch up on lost sleep.

I got up at about 8am and wandered out to the kitchen but didn’t want anything to eat. So I went in and had a shower and still felt a little weird so I thought I would lie down again. Fortunately, I fell asleep. I got up a few hours later and I felt a little hungry. Ah! This is good I am getting better. I stayed up and had a bowl of soup but by 7pm felt really tired. I decided bed sounded like a good idea again. I then thought – this 24 hour virus might be a 48 hour virus and the body needs the sleep.

Then within 2 hours, I started getting aches and stabbing pains all over my body. I couldn’t sit up, I couldn’t lie down and I found it difficult to stand. Every part of me said “do not touch, I hurt”. My husband wanted me to get in the car and he would drive to hospital but I knew I couldn’t sit in the car – it was going to be difficult to get in and then difficult to get out. Has this ever happened to you? It was the worst feeling. He rang an ambulance because I was really a mess and he was concerned. The ambulance delivered me to accident and emergency and then I had to lie down ( I had sat in the back of the ambulance). It took all my strength to get on the bed and then the doctor went to touch me – I had an ECG to see if I wasn’t having a heart attack and because I was so upset by this time she ordered morphine and a drip.

After about another 2-3 hours, things got a bit blurry, she finally said she thought it was appendicitis and she was calling a surgeon to confirm it. He came and confirmed it and said theater in 2 hours. I was still sore and sorry for myself, after the operation, but well on the way to recovery. The surgeon told me the appendix was so close to bursting it wasn’t funny.

So from now on, I will maybe think of getting to see a doctor in the middle of the day. The operation was performed using keyhole surgery so I was allowed home after 24 hours. Now all I have to do is wade through the emails and catch up with the work I had planned to do.

So if you are like me, a little stubborn when it comes to going to the doctor, I would advise you to give it serious thought. I was really lucky but even though I was in agony, I didn’t want to think it could be anything major but who knows – never be your own physician (unless of course you are a doctor) always seek help.

Hi this is Sue once again and I have just been thinking about what has happened regarding our new business. When things aren’t going the way they should, you have to stop, take stock and move forward with an alternative plan. This is what has happened to us. We are trying to source some supplies from overseas but we haven’t found the right supplier yet. It has been a few months now. It is not easy sometimes to carry on, but the best thing you can do, is smile and keep moving forward. Don’t show that look of disappointment but rather show a look of happiness, looking forward to what the future will bring.

It is like the story of the gold miner who stopped 3 feet away from the gold. He gave up, sold his equipment and left the gold field a broken man. The fellow who bought the equipment was eager to try it out – so he started it up and began digging. It was not too long before he hit one of the riches seams of gold. It is the same here with any venture you are involved with.

What is the difference between the winner and the loser? Quitters never win while the winners will never quit. A winner has a dogged determination and will never accept failure. Imagine yourself in the winners circle. Nothing and no one is going to stop you. Don’t be discouraged by those people who ask how much money have you made and when are you going to get your first million? Just give them a smile!

If you have been a person, who all your life, thought that you did not have a chance – change your thinking immediately and know that you do have a chance. I will not tell you that a lot of things in life are easy. If you are a marketer you will know this. You can succeed at anything you want to do against all the odds. I remember listening to a talk from Sir Edmund Hilliary – the first man, along with his Nepalese Sherpa, Tensing Norgay, who were credited with being the first men to climb Mount Everest. He really did not know how he was going to reach the summit but he believed it possible.

Believing that something is possible should always be your thought pattern. Avoid the knockers and the skeptics. Have your goals and plans and follow them but if like us you have to change some plans, do it. Remember the saying “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”.

Have you taken the time lately to reflect on how things are going? Are you moving forward towards achieving your goals or have you deviated away from them and started traveling down another pathway? Or are you just marking time? Let’s just look at where you are right now and let’s looks at where you want to be. If you want to be a successful internet marketer – what do you need to do?

I can’t say it loudly and often enough-sign up with a coach who will teach you and also be a good mentor.You need to enroll in a course that takes you through all aspects of internet marketing. The next thing you need is the right mindset. Write out your goals and then write out the plan to achieve those goals. I know that this sounds simple, but the problem we all have in our lives, is that sometimes we get distracted. Having your goals written down in front of you will certainly help keep you on track. You can have them stuck on your bathroom mirror, on your refrigerator or stuck near your computer. You may even want to write them on a card and carry it around with you. You need to be able to read them over and over again.

It is just like walking through long grass, if you keep walking the same pathway every time you go through the field, pretty soon, the grass will become flattened and it is easy to walk through and you can clearly see your way. You can achieve a similar results by constantly reminding yourself of your goals – it is like beating a pathway to your brain, you are planting this in your subconscious mind and the thought or your goals become your belief and this will help achieve your success.

OK – you have taken the wrong turn! Did you have your goals clearly displayed in front of you? Did you rush out and buy all those products that your coach told you NOT to buy? You are trying so much that you are confusing yourself and getting frustrated because you are being pulled in several directions at once? Yes- I can hear you answering. Well just stop and take a deep breathe in and out – not a sigh – but a deep breathe. Now that we have found out where you are going wrong, let’s get back to the right track immediately and discard all those distractions. Get back to the basics that you were taught and if there is something that you are having trouble with, ask for help. If you have a coach – ask him first but if the coach is not available, ask a fellow marketer or go to a forum and put your question there. Remember -”You have to do it for yourself but you do not have to do it alone”. I want you to be in the 3% success rate and I know you want that to.

Well, I hope you all reflect on what I have said. So this is Sue until next time…..
