I’d like to share a short story with you.
This morning my wife was grocery shopping at
Wegmans – our local supermarket.
A strange man approached her and asked if she
would take a survey. They wanted to get her
opinion on the store prices.
She agreed.
The man then yelled: “Ok Fellas! She’ll take the
survey – come on out!”
Three more people jumped out from the next aisle!
One guy carried a television camera. Another guy had a
microphone. The third person was lugging a lighting
apparatus.
These guys were shooting a television
commercial for Wegmans. They wanted
testimonials from real customers.
Wegmans is a fantastic grocery store. In fact, it
is more of an “experience” than a grocery store.
So my wife had no trouble giving Wegmans a glowing
review on camera.
The TV men were really happy that she talked
so enthusiastically about the store.
They even invited her back for some future
commercial work!
Of course, she will ask to be paid next time!
Getting on TV is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Some people work their entire lives for just one
chance to get on TV.
The reason my wife got on TV with almost no effort
is simple: She was in the right place at the right time.
How can you apply this to your life?
It’s true that you can’t predict where the next big
opportunity will show up.
I don’t suggest you spend all day at the grocery
store
Finding opportunities like this one is *mostly*
beyond your control.
However, you CAN control the odds of getting
your big break.
For example, you can control the people you associate with.
Do you hang out with lazy people who criticize your
hard work?
Or, do you seek out successful people who encourage
and compliment you?
You can do lots of small things to control and attract
opportunity. For example, you can seek out a successful
local business owner and ask he or she to have lunch with
you.
You can join a local business mastermind
chapter.
You can choose to associate yourself with people
who encourage you and push you towards your goals
(like Dave and I do).
You can also PREPARE yourself for opportunity.
My wife did not leave the house today expecting to
get on TV. However, she was prepared for just such
an opportunity.
For example, she was dressed nicely. She wore
dress jeans and a business-casual type shirt. She
looked the part of an ideal Wegmans shopper.
In short, she was prepared for opportunity that might happen.
A lot of people went to Wegmans today dressed in dirty
sweat pants and sweat stained t-shirts.
Nobody asked them to be in the commercial.
There are lots of things you can do to prepare
for opportunity. Here are just a few:
1. Dress the part.
2. Keep an open mind.
3. Strike up conversations with people in line at
Starbucks.
You just never know where your next big
break will come from. Why not prepare yourself
to grab it when it shows up?
These opportunities may show up at random, unexpectedly.
You can also be more aggressive about this and create your own opportunities.
As an affiliate marketer, there is no better time
or place to create opportunity than in New York
City on August 22nd and 23rd.
We are hosting the Real Internet Millionaire’s Summit
and you are invited.
We’ll spend Day 1 in the classroom showing you our
websites, traffic sources, campaigns, and successful
affiliate programs.
On Day 2 we’ll take you with us around the trade
show floor of Affiliate Summit. You will meet and
make deals with Fortune 500 companies, affiliate
managers, and legitimate Internet Millionaires.
Nothing compares to the opportunity that
surrounds you at this event.
Where else can you make deals with the affiliate manager
of Groupon.com and account reps from Facebook -
within the span of an hour or two?
You can see our students last year making the types
of deals in this short video here.
Also! If you are considering meeting us in New
York, I encourage you to grab your ticket today.
Today is the final day of the affordable
four-payment option. That payment option
disappears at Midnight tonight.
We would love to meet you in person so if you
want the four-payment option, now is the time
to register.
Remember also that – with sufficient notice – your ticket
is fully refundable.
In other words, if you are on the fence about this
and want the four payment option, now is the time
to grab your ticket.

I’d like to share an inspiring story with you about one of our students.
(We’ll call this student ‘Sydney’ to protect her
privacy.)
Briefly, Sydney turned a debilitating medical
problem into a full-time website income.
How did she do this?
Sydney was diagnosed with a condition called
Hypothyroidism, which can be a debilitating
medical problem if not treated. In fact,
Wikipedia lists 43 possible symptoms of this
condition – some quite serious.
Every doctor who treated Sydney wanted to
treat her with prescription medicines.
These medicines came with their own long
list of side effects.
Sydney didn’t want to replace her existing symptoms
with other symptoms from these medications.
Sydney knew there had to be another solution…and
there was…
She did hours of research and dozens of “experiments.”
Sydney changed her diet and took some natural
supplements. By doing this Sydney eliminated 99%
of her symptoms. She felt incredibly healthy for
the first time in years. She also felt a great
sense of accomplishment from beating this disease!
But Sydney wasn’t done yet.
She knew that other people were suffering from the
same condition. She also saw an opportunity to make
money.
She thought to herself: “What if I make my story
into an ebook and sell it on the Internet?”
Sydney got to work and made a simple ebook. She
posted the ebook on a simple one-page website. She
used the traffic techniques we taught her
to get people to her website.
The response to her website was overwhelming.
People from all over the World purchased her
ebook!
Sydney helped hundreds of other people AND she
made a full-time income! (Last we heard this
simple website was generating about $3,200 each
month. With a few changes to her site we expect it
to do around $6,000-$7,000 per month.)
There are two big lessons from this story:
BIG LESSON #1: Anybody can make lemonade from lemons. Sydney
was served a lemon – a serious medical problem.
She made lemonade by helping other people and
making a full-time income.
BIG LESSON #2: There is big money in promoting Health and
Wellness affiliate offers. In fact 88% of Americans have
purchased a product for their health and/or well
being.
Many people use affiliate websites to purchase
these products.
Dave and I make money from these types of affiliate
companies. We made tens of thousands of dollars
from affiliate weight-loss companies, teeth whitening,
and varicose vein treatments.
This is such a lucrative opportunity that Dave and I
dedicated this month’s Jetsetters’ Club DVD and
Captains Log to health and wellness affiliate
offers.
Inside this month’s DVD you’ll discover the top
two health and wellness affiliate networks we use
and three of the most lucrative affiliate companies.
You’ll also meet two rookie affiliates who are
currently making $2,500 per month and $15,000 per
month from simple health and wellness affiliate
websites.
(These two guys have a unique way of making their
money. It is totally different from how Sydney
makes money.)
Finally, we show you how to use human psychology
and elementary school mind conditioning to blow
your website conversion rates out of the water.
Go here to take this journey with us inside the most
lucrative market on the planet.
Remember, if you enroll in the Jetsetters’ Club
you will get this month’s DVD about how to make
money from health and wellness affiliate programs.
You will also get a huge box of free bonus DVDs, CDs,
and reports.

P.S. The health and wellness DVD is scheduled to
ship this week. Our shipping company must have the
final count in the next 48 hours. After that, they
will be gone forever.

A few months back the Capital One Credit Card
Company rejected me from its affiliate program.
I applied 3-4 times with different websites. They
rejected me every time.
I knew that I could make an additional $8,000 -
$12,000 per month with Capital One….but they
refused to let me into their Affiliate Program!
This was incredibly frustrating.
Perhaps you’ve had a similar experience with a
company you want to make money with. I know how
frustrating this can be for you.
Sadly, sometimes the only way to get approved
is to have a company “insider” get you into a program.
That’s the bad news.
Here’s the good news:
There are thousands (literally) of good affiliate
companies who will gladly pay you to promote their
website. In fact, Commission Junction (www.cj.com)
has hundreds of offers that are automatic
approval. This means you get approved instantly -
no matter what.
There’s another way you can get approved for
(almost) ANY offer. You can meet us in New York
City in August. We will personally introduce you
to the people who pay us over a Million dollars in
affiliate commissions.
You will meet and make deals with the same companies
that we work with.
We’ll also take you onto the trade show floor of
Affiliate Summit. This is where the biggest and
hottest affiliate companies make on-the-spot deals
with new affiliates.
You’ll get personal access to the most lucrative
campaigns on the market. For example, here are
just a few example companies you can meet and make deals
with:
-CreditCards.com
-GoDaddy.com
-Omaha Steaks
-Plenty of Fish
-Southwest Airlines
-Home Depot
-There will be TONS more. In fact, there were
4,700 affiliate companies, networks, and publishers
at the last event.
Meeting these people in person is basically your
only guaranteed way to “get in” with an affiliate
company.
Think of it like a “Secret Handshake.”
The best part is that you don’t have to approach
anybody “cold.” You’ll be with us – two of the
most recognized names in the industry.
For two days we will be your “company insiders.”
This event is just one part of what you
will experience at The Real Internet Millionaire’s
Summit.
Did you know that you can obtain incredible wealth just by being an expert at something?
In fact, you can get really rich by being an expert at ordinary things that people use in their daily lives. Consider these examples:
Rachel Ray is now a famous celebrity cook, author, and TV show host. She became incredibly wealthy because she is an expert at cooking – something that ordinary people do everyday.
Here’s the important part: Nobody handed Rachel Ray a certificate telling her she was an expert cook. She had lots of experience cooking and working in restaurants and was therefore considered an “expert.”
Cesar Millan – also known as the Dog Whisperer – has a hit TV show and is a best-selling author. Cesar is an expert at dog training – an ordinary thing that people need and want to know about.
Cesar is self-taught. Nobody considers him an expert because he has a plaque on the wall declaring him an expert. Rather, Cesar is an expert because he has more experience and knowledge about dog training than 99% of other
people.
I guarantee that you are an expert of at least one thing you can use to make money.
Don’t believe me? Think about this story:
A few months ago computer hackers attacked Dave’s home office computer system. They put viruses on his computer. Since Dave does all his work from this computer, he needed to find a solution – and find it quick.
He tried a bunch of things to fix the virus. He bought a half-dozen anti-virus products. None of them worked. He finally found a product that worked – it removed the virus!
Dave is now at expert at how to fix a computer virus. He used his expert status to make money. He set up a simple affiliate website where he talks about his experience and what he did to fix the problem.
Simple websites like these work. In fact, in our best month we made just shy of $12,000 from a simple anti-virus affiliate website. (www.pcdefense.org)
I encourage you to take a mental inventory of all the ways that you are an expert.
- Perhaps you’re hobby is photography and you are an
expert at how to take low level photographs
- Imagine what you could do with the World’s best
recipe for chocolate chip cookies
- Maybe you are an expert at using Microsoft Excel
- You could be an expert simply because you have used a popular product – like P90X or the new Apple iPad.
Remember, simple ordinary things can make you tremendous sums of cash.
In fact, I’ve made $2.2 Million dollars just from being an “expert” about credit cards and personal finance. I became an expert because I had bad credit in college.
I posted blog entries about my experiences and posted related affiliate links.
Those links generated $2.2 Million so far in income.
I share the entire story in the NEW DVD: “How to Make Your First Million Online in the New Economy“.
You can get a copy of that DVD by accepting my invitation to try out the Jetsetters Club (The DVD is Free – just pay a small shipping charge).

Coaching Day: Rochester, New York Offices
We met with four ambitious students last week in our Rochester, New York offices.
Our Goal: Simple – to give our students “walk-away” affiliate campaigns. We spent the day setting up LIVE landing pages, Microsoft Adcenter Campaigns with existing affiliate offers that are working for us right NOW.
In fact, these two guys are now operating the same offer that is generating Dave and I between $50,000 – $60,000 in gross revenue per month. I can’t tell you what the campaign is, but it’s in the personal finance category and is BOOMING right now as a result of the faltering real estate and economic market.
That’s the great thing about Affiliate Marketing: You can be in ANY market literally overnight. We sent these two guys home with successful Affiliate campaigns and will be cutting them checks each month.
We limit our coaching days to just 3-4 separate events per year. In fact, we had to turn away three interested students last week because we were already booked.
We haven’t scheduled our next coaching days yet, but if you want to get on the list to be notified first, just send an email to our assistant: Jessica – jessica@sixfigureprogram.com.
Let her know your preferred meeting location: Rochester, NY, Tampa, Florida, or Chicago.
WARNING: This post contains some rough language.
If you are easily offended, DO NOT READ any further!
I want to share a story about how I nearly got
into a fist fight at a meeting.
To give you some background, I belong to a group
of local Internet marketers. These guys all have
full-time Internet businesses. They make anywhere
between $5,000 per month to $60,000 per month.
(Before I joined this Club I had no idea that
there were this many local people making a six
figure income from the Internet).
In any event, this Club meets every two weeks. We
meet in a separate building nestled in the woods
of a Rochester suburb. We discuss business ideas,
hot new offers, our websites, new techniques, etc.
We also talk about our goals.
At our last meeting I talked about getting 100
sales per day from a credit card affiliate program
called “Green Dot.” Tom, one of the members,
was rude. He said this to me:
“Ben, for months now you’ve been talking about
getting 100 sales per day on that offer, but you
have yet to do it. You are just all talk and no
walk. Either do it, or stop talking about it.”
I was shocked. I got really mad. My face turned
red and my palms started to sweat. I wanted to
fight this guy right then and there.
I also wanted to bring up all the reasons I
haven’t achieved my goal – like I’ve been
busy with other projects, I’ve been traveling,
etc. However, I knew he was right. I knew those
are just excuses. Inside I had to admit that I’ve
been talking about that goal for a while.
Instead of getting into a fist fight with Tom I
made him a wager. I bet him $1,000 that I could
generate 100 sales in a single day before the next
Club meeting. Tom didn’t hesitate one bit. He
accepted my wager on the spot.
I went home that day feeling nervous. I sat down
at my computer and thought:
“What did I just do? If I don’t get 100 sales
in a day, I’m going to have to pay this jerk
$1,000.”
I decided I’d better get to work. I looked for some
traffic loopholes. Luckily I found a big traffic
loophole that almost nobody else knows about.
(More about the traffic loophole below).
I started getting tons of traffic to the Green Dot
offer. Sales started pouring in. I was now getting
60 sales per day. It was good money, but I
wasn’t done yet. I went back to this same
loophole and worked it some more.
Then, something exciting happened. Sales EXPLODED!
I finally did it – I got 100 sales in a single
24 hour period! In fact, on Thursday I hit 105
sales. The next day I hit 117 sales. Yesterday I
hit 121 sales!
The first thing I did was send Tom an email with
the screen shot of my sales and commissions.
The next thing I did was grab my calculator and
figure out how much money this will bring in
each month.
I figured out that this one Affiliate offer is on
pace to bring in an extra $49,000 per month.
All I am using is a simple one page website,
a good affiliate offer, and a traffic loophole.
(I am now grateful to Tom for calling me out and
challenging me.)
There are two big lessons from this story:
Big Lesson One: The secret to success is Focus:
The reason I am now getting 100 sales per day is
because I focused on my goal. I had tunnel vision
and did whatever it took to reach that goal.
Lack of focus is the enemy of an aspiring entrepreneur.
There are a ton of shiny objects you can chase.
My business partner, Dave Clabeaux, and I are guilty of occasionally losing focus
and have to periodically refocus ourselves.
If you are currently juggling too many business
ideas, consider this your wake up call.
In other words, if you are simultaneously working on
a multi-level marketing project, while flipping
houses, while building websites, while selling vitamins
door-to-door, while delivering newspapers, while
starting a pizza shop, then I would bet that none
of those things will work out.
You’ll be working on each thing “half-assed”.
There is nothing wrong with having multiple
streams of income. In fact, the wealthiest people
in the World have dozens, if not hundreds, of
income streams from very different projects.
However, if you asked them how they did it, they
will tell you that they focused on one thing at a
time.
For example, Felix Dennis is the owner of Maxim
Magazine and has a net worth of 900 million. In
his book he says that he gets “tunnel vision”
with his projects. He focuses on one thing and one
thing only until it is successful. Even if this
means he must temporarily ignore other projects.
This is what I did. That credit card offer is now
generating $49,000 in extra monthly income without
too much babysitting.
In other words, I did all the heavy lifting up front
and the campaign – now a $49,000 per month income -
is now running pretty much on auto pilot.
2. The Second lesson is that there is a huge
untapped supply of cheap traffic available to you.
The supply is a direct result of the recent merger
between Yahoo and Microsoft search.
I just got 10,000+ hits in a day for 4 – 6 cents each.
Dave and I are purchasing blocks of 1 Million impressions at a
time for next to nothing.
Most of your competition is totally missing out on
this traffic source. They are still chasing Google
traffic and swimming upstream. The NEW way for
Affiliates to get massive traffic on demand is to
take advantage of the Yahoo/MSN traffic merger.
If this is confusing to you, just think about the
way that the stock market operates. When two
companies merge, the value of the stock goes way
up.
I am not sure how long this traffic supply will
last, but we are definitely going to milk it for
at least a few hundred thousand dollars.
(If you want to get in on this traffic too, then
I suggest you run – don’t walk – to www.adcenter.microsoft.com
and open an account.)
Before I go, I want to remind you that the LAST
DAY to register for the CPA Clinic and qualify for a
custom MLB quality jersey is TONIGHT at midnight.
This isn’t a trick to get you to register early.
We need to provide the jersey company with your
name and size. They are going to print your name
on the back of the jersey – just like they do in
the Big Leagues.
They need to have all the orders by tomorrow morning
at the latest. If you register after midnight you’ll
miss out.
Also, at this event Dave and I will be spending
more time than usual on getting massive traffic.
We’ll show you, among other things, exactly how
you can get 1 Million impressions for next to
nothing. We’ll reveal, in fine detail, how we
scale campaigns by getting traffic from other
sources too such as media buys, pay per view, pay
per click, and arbitrage methods.
I can assure you that the CPA Clinic will sell
out. If you’re leaning towards coming then I
suggest you register now so you’ll be guaranteed
to receive your custom jersey.

Affiliate Summit West is always the yearly highlight convention for any Internet Marketer.
Get your ticket here:
www.AffiliateSummit.com
Remember, we’ll be hosting a private closed door meeting the day before Affiliate Summit with NBC’s The Apprentice contestant Troy McClain. Send me an email: ben@benmoskel.com for details.
The Criminals in Washington, D.C. Harassed Steve Wynn about this message. The politicians he referenced reminds me about the gangsters described in Atlas Shrugged.
This morning I received a fantastic email from Ken McCarthy. I didn’t know this solution was on the market now. It had always been an underground solution to Google Adwords – but now the secret is out!
Here is the email from Ken McCarthy:
If you’re running a good sized Google AdWords
campaign ($5,000 a month and up), fasten your
seat belt.
This e-mail has the potential to be a life changing
event for you.
Last year, Ben Moskel told me about an experimental,
underground campaign automation tool he was testing.
I didn’t think much of it either way. There are so many
new technologies coming out in Internet marketing, it’s
hard to keep track of them all.
But I did ask him to report back with his results.
I forgot about it and I guess he did too because I never
heard any more about it.
But I did notice something about Ben a few months
later…
Ben seemed a lot more relaxed and well rested and he
seemed to have a whole lot more time on his hands.
http://www.TheSystemSeminar.com/googlesolution
Last month, Ben and I were in NYC together at Affiliate
Summit East and the subject of the “the tool” came up.
“How’s that been working for you?” I asked.
“Oh that? It’s been great. Changed my life.”
It so happened that the guy who turned Ben on to this
technology was at the Summit so we had a chance
to meet.
This guy has a background so deep in Internet marketing
it’s CRAZY.
He started with the Houston Chronicle which was one
of the very first mainstream newspapers to go online
in a serious way.
Then he worked for Mark Cuban at Broadcast.com.
Cuban sold that company to Yahoo for $5.9 billion.
(That’s “billion” with a “B.”)
Then Ben’s friend went to work for GoTo which
became Overture which invented the pay-per-click
model which now rules the online advertising world.
Talk about right place at the right time…over and
over and over again.
Well, it looks like Ben’s friend has done it again.
If you’re running a good sized Google AdWords
campaign ($5,000 a month and up), lock the door,
turn off your cell phone, and give the next nine
minutes your absolutely undivided attention.
I guarantee this will be the most valuable nine
minutes you’ll spend all year.
