Does Anyone Know How to Make Money Online?
April 13, 2009
We were curious on how to make money on the Internet and live the Internet Lifestyle, so….we decided to go around and just ask people. Michael Alaniz and James Wedmore walked the streets of Hollywood, CA asking everyone, “How do you make money on the Internet?” This following is their answers…
A Mastermind with Bryan Elliott of ASN
January 3, 2009
While Bartending (my night job) a Private Party, I was introduced to Bryan Elliott, the founder of Action Sports Network. I quickly decided that we needed to pick Bryan’s brain so we could learn as much from him as possible.
We set up an Interview with Bryan and the rest of the gang to learn more about him and his marketing experience. We were surprised to see how he has harnessed the power of Social Media to create a following of 900+ members in just under three months. And it was this past December that he held his FIRST Live Event for his Networking Group: So-Cal Action Sports Network. This group consists of CEO’s, Small Business Owners, Marketing Directors and other Entrepreneurs who fall into the Market of “Action Sports.” This includes anything from Surf & Skate apparel to energy drinks and music.
What We Learned From Bryan:
In just one hour of interviewing Bryan, we were able to grab some pretty powerful stuff! But what amazed us the most was Bryan’s humility. Although he founded Action Sports Network and built it from the ground up, he does not seek power or credit for his accomplishments. Instead, he looks at himself as a servant of the Networking Group, and that the real focus is on the members and where THEY want to take ASN.
It is this attitude and mindset that one MUST have in order to be successful with Social Media. Put your group and members first. Listen to their wants and needs and simply fulfill them.
Bryan Elliott used LinkedIn to obtain over 900 members in under three months. We are all excited to see what he will accomplish in 2009.
Bryan will be featured on our Webisode Series: realityMASTERMIND which will be debuting this Spring 2009! Watch out for him, and many other EXPERTS who are helping us along the path as we go from zeros to Internet Marketing Heros!
Learning to Write Sales Letters
December 12, 2008
On our continuing quest to make money on the Internet, we met with Eric Farewell, a young, energetic entrepreneur who has been in this crazy Internet Marketing World for almost 10 years now! We learned some excellent things about how to BRAND our business as well as some excellent Copywriting and super-sneaky & effective Marketing Tactics!
But the most beneficial thing he did was hand us a copy of his newest product: 1 Click Sales Sites. In a nutshell, it is everything you need to make the SICKEST looking Sales Letter Websites. I quickly dubbed these designs: Beyond Web 2.0 in style.
If you want to see just how GREAT these pre-made themes look, just check out the website www.1ClickSalesSites.com. He used one of the themed templates on his OWN Sales Letter.
Oh by the way! Eric also told us a thing or two about “Affiliate Marketing!” We actually get paid 30% if you use our link when you purchase 1ClickSalesSites. Pretty frickin’ cool, huh?!
So, check it out: www.1ClickSalesSites.com
And here is the Testimonial I shot of my review of the Product:
Mastermind Word Jumble
November 23, 2008
We stumbled upon a really cool website that let us create a word jumble for Free! Check out Wordle at www.Wordle.net and get started on your Word Jumble today!
To create ours, all five of us sat down and started coming up with words that described what realityMASTERMIND meant to us. The picture below is the result of what this project is for us. And we just thought we would share this cool picture with you. Enjoy!
The (Go-Kart) Track to Success & Internet Riches
November 8, 2008
While we did end up “Racing for Pinks,” our initial intention for coming to an Indoor Go-Kart Track was to attend our monthly Orange County Internet Marketing Meet-Up group. Michael and I were fortunate enough to present our “realityMastermind Concept” to the group, but we also opened our doors to invite more “Guest-Masterminders” to brainstorm with us at our meetings.
[youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHnDaOqBixU]
The Result:
We had a ton of successful Marketers approach us asking to be apart of the project. We are so excited to be working with others who are willing to share their ideas and help us learn and grow.
What We Have for YOU:
The dynamic of our Mastermind meetings has simply been incredible! Having a guest come in and join us all day has been truely remarkable (mainly because we really don’t know what we are doing!) I would love to extend the invitation to YOU and ask that you come and join us on our show.
The Benefits of Masterminding with Us:
- You get to hang out with a couple of cool guys
- We will promote you & your website
- You will be featured on our TV Show
- You’ll get that funny feeling inside knowing that you are making an impact on our lives
- …and we may just teach you a thing or two (though highly doubtful)
Please Contact us if you are interested in becoming one of our Guest-Masterminders by filling out the Contact Form on our website.
Illuminate 2008: Christian Internet Marketer’s Conference
October 23, 2008
A few weeks ago, I boarded a plane and headed to San Francisco to join Alejandro Reyes (The Successfool), Joel Comm, Jermaine Griggs, Jeff Mills, Jason Marshall, Paul Counts, Eric Farewell, Justin Brooke, Steve Beck, Gary Zeleski & so many others, in the FIRST ever Christian Internet Marketing Conference at Alejandro’s Illuminate Conference 2008.
Why Christian Marketing?
It really doesn’t matter what religious background you have, or what you believe in. But in a fast-paced world such as the Internet, where the scammers & spammers out-number the honesty & trustworthy marketers, it is important to start your Online Business with a strong foundation with Proper Values.
Alejandro "Successfool" Reyes & James Wedmore
Joel Comm and others reminded us that Money is NOT the Root of all Evil…”It is the LOVE of Money” that is the root. So whether you are just taking your first step into this uncertain terrain of Online Marketing, or you have spent years living the successful Internet Lifestyle, ask yourself, why are you doing this? What motivates you? Greater success will come to those who have a deeper purpose than just “I want a big house, expensive car, and All-Access Membership to the Country Club.
Personally, the Illuminate conference helped me discover what some of my motivating principles are, that keep me going late at night, when I’m tired and should probably be sleeping. Hopefully, in our show, you will discover that all of the Mastermind members are doing what they are doing for more than just the money. It is all about discovering your reason “why?”
My Big Take-Away:
If the choice comes down to purchasing the next hot product or software program that has been offered by the top marketers or attending a Live Event…I will always go LIVE! Why? No expensive home study course or step-by-step guide will ever replace the amazing and powerful relationships that are created while in a room of like-minded indivuals. So many JV relationships, friendships, and product ideas were created that weekend by the attendees, I was just overwhelmed! Even though I was on information-overload, there was one gleaming lesson to be learned, that I had yet to take in to consideration. I literally needed a big sign to hit me over the head a few times before I realized what needed to change in my business…
OUTSOURCE! Thanks to Jeff Mills and many others, the word of the day (all three days) was Outsource! For many, including myself, outsourcing and outtasking is a very difficult concept to grasp, and requires a difficult shift in your mindset that has left me kicking and screaming the entire time.
Justin Brooke (SiteFling.com)
First, realize just how important your time is! Once you put a monetary value on your hourly rate, you look at a $20/hour programmer in a whole new light! For me, the real difficult part came in realizing I would just have to let go! I wanted to do it all…and I mean do it ALL! From programming, graphic design, writing, etc, I fealt that no one can do it as well as I can…ya, totally wrong!!
So it is still a difficult transition for me: I have already gone through 3 Virtual Assistants in 2 weeks(I love ODesk.com), but I am building trustful relationships with the ones that stay. More and more of those energy-sucking, mundane daily tasks are being lifted…and I am left to focus my energy on areas that are most profitable (and enjoyable!). I think my road to living the Internet Lifestyle just took one giant leap forward…although I still feel like I have a long ways to go!

The Mastermind Meltdown: Our FIRST LESSON
October 23, 2008
What I Learned From Our FIRST Meeting:
Things are moving fast, and we just had our FIRST Official Mastermind meeting Last Night! And I have to say…it was a complete disaster! We were completely unprepared and unorganized, and the entire night moved as slow as molasses. Let’s just say we decided to call it quits at 3:00am in the morning!
But We Did Learn Something:
Our Big Take-Away? DON’T START A 5 HOUR MEETING AT 10:00PM AT NIGHT….especially when everyone has work the next morning! OOPS!
Well, we did have some fun as we started to go insane, and we decided to document a bit of it with some pictures! I hope you enjoy the little slideshow!
