Kelvin Brown’s Personal and Marketing Blog

Today, there were again excellent speakers.

But the most important thing was that we went on a night bus tour of Washington DC. I have lived in the metro area, since 1984, when the US Army first stationed me here. And last night was my first official tour.

Now, I have been to many tourists attractions, at one time or another, but just not a regular tour. So, that was different. Now, I can cross that off my list of things to do.

Hey Guys, some of you already know about my top ranking for “famous internet marketer”, so does the local tv station. WUSA9, a local TV station here in Washington, DC is now following me.

Makes you feel kinda special. But, who am I kidding. They may be well, following hundreds of locals on twitter.

Yesterday, about 4 pm, I was cleaning out my spam folder at spamarrest.com. Usually about once a week I check the spam folder to see if I need to update my spam rules. I get a few thousand messages a day, so, I am glad to have it.

But, this time when I checked there was a message that surprised me. There was an Internet Marketing Conference for this weekend, that was being held just a few miles from me, in Crystal City, Virginia. My first thought, was how is it that I did not know. And the message said it was sold out. Well, I could not settle for that. I went to the site, and checked, it did say sold out, I checked so other mail from the spam folder, and there appeared to be a backdoor link. I checked this link and it worked.

Next, I got showed, and dressed and went to the hotel of the conference. Some of the members were having a pre-conference dinner, but I was able to verifiy that there would, indeed be a place for me in the conference.

Glad I went.

I have been running my autoresponder service from clickbank.com since 2001. However, quite a few things have changed. Mainly that clickbank is now accepting payments via paypal, and this allows them to now offer monthly subscription payments.

I had been only able to offer the service annually before, using clickbank, because there was no way to rebill clients. This is why I built a second site to offer the service through paypal. Just to use the subscription service. But this caused a problem because my affiliates still could not take advantage of offering the monthly service.

I had to send multiple emails to them to answer their questions, because one of the new policies is to be very selective as to what programs they allow you to promote via clickbank. And email services raise a red flag with them.

But they did approve my service, so now it’s time to start updating the site to reflect this. I will start offering the service at $10 a month, soon.

I had not formerly considered individual coaching clients before today. Got a call from a potential client, answered questions, and was asked about my coaching clients. I have gotten paid for helping clients before. But usually, it was, not very formal. I say, I will help for x amount, they agree and we continue.

So, now, I have to take a serious look at putting together a formal coaching agreement.

This is an email I sent to my lists, this past Thursday and Friday.
======================

I want to share with you a product release by
by another friend I have JV with a number of times, Xavier Nelson.

Xavier, put together a mega pack of Niche Content Sites.
It is a 50 pack deal.

Even though, Xavier is my friend, I still took time to install one of the
niches on my own site, to see how the install went.
You can see one of my installs here.
Hybrid Cars

The install is very easy, there are only 3 files to update. Mainly just
adding your personal links for Amazon, and Adsense. I installed
the first one in under 20 minutes, and that included me looking up
my affiliate IDs, and taking notes, as I review the install.

I do have a couple of tips to share with you. I am putting that in a
short list this weekend after I review it one more time.

Now, that said, it still has a high recommendation from me.
The cost is only $47, making it less than a $1, a set.

You can see the set details below.

Key features; Instant Comments, RSS feeds, Automated Links Manager,
Rotating Article Snippets and a whole lot more designed to
draw in your visitors, such as…

- 50 High-Quality, Professionally Designed Niche Websites
- 25 Professionally Written Articles For Each Site
- Easy to setup, install and operate
- Multiple Revenue Streams
- Related News Feeds - Automated Videos
- Visitor Comments
- Easy Navigation
- Automated Reciprocal Linking
- Easy To Use Admin Control Panel
- and much, much more!!!

That’s the good news, now for the BAD news. There is a limit
to how many packs he is selling. More good news, really,
because you have less competition in search engines.
Plus, as an owner, you can promote the package as well,
until they are sold out. Plus, you will be in line for next
one a few months down the line.

Hello Wonderful People

I’m Kelvin, owner of several sites, but most important to you today is www.TheWashingtonDirectory.com.

The site has recently been updated with several features. But why should this interest you.

BUSINESS EXPERTS - WIN - WIN

I am looking for experts in their fields who would like to be a part of The Washington Directory. Here is what we get to do, together. For example if you are THE GO TO plumber in the DC metro area, I would like for you to give at least a great tip a month. And because it can be visual, it would be great to show a plumber via video with a how to tip.

So, what do you get. First, you get top billing in the blog as THE Plumbing expert for the Washington Directory. I will also plug your videos into multiple video sharing sites. And because it is in the blog, your comments will be picked up by several other websites. So, you give a tip, I spread the word, and of course you get all the credit for the tip.

You can reach me via http://www.kelvinbrown.com/helpdesk or

Thanks for you consideration,

Kelvin Brown
the famous Internet Marketer

this weekend a friend of my “Lee Green” referred someone to me who writes for a popular magazine.

At least from my point of view the interview about widgets, really it was about widgets, went well.
But, what I am really excited about is that a couple of things I said actually made sense to him. I invited him to use me as a resource. Even if it would not immediately give me credit. In this way I hope to build a relationship that proves to be a win, win for all involved.

I encourage you to build relationships, with writer, reports, etc. And this is not some big revelation that I came up with. It is just the first big contact with a major magazine that I have had.

Whenever, I begin to speak on how to take advantage of the internet for your business, I always include the fact that you should own your own name as a domain. For example I own www.kelvinbrown.com

For less than $10 a year in registration fees, I consider this of the highest priority, even if you do not own a business. It is not important that you use the domain, but what is important is that you have the ability to control usage of the name. For example there are a few other people named ‘Kelvin Brown’, online. There are many more offline. However, here is the tricky part, even though they personally may not have a website, others are likely to mention their names.

For example, there was a college basketball player, that got into a little trouble, his name was, Kelvin Brown. He was mentioned online by several news organizations and bloggers. It just happened that people curious about that event started looking for him online, inevitably, they found www.KelvinBrown.com, which I controlled. And because I controlled it, I could edit it to let them know, that they found the wrong site.
