NinjaLinkCloaker Launch Week

Posted by Matt in General

Link Cloaker LaunchNinja’s boosted my commissions…..

Well that was the theme for my first product launch. An advanced link cloaking program which prevents commission theft and boosts commissions by hiding affiliate links.

Amongst the most advanced cloaking programs available, the training videos really helped it stand above the pack, with loads of tips & tricks which would allow users to harness and employ the full power of the Ninja software to it’s full capabilities.
With the help of Mike Merz, the software launched at midday EST June 12. The week long launch was a great success and bought in a tonne of sales. I’d like to thank everyone who got on board promoting the launch, especially our three biggest JV parnters- Leon Klepfish, Jamie Ratliff & Reef Floren.

Internet Mastery Secrets

Posted by Matt in General

Early this June I attended the Internet Mastery Secrets Seminar, held in my home town Melbourne, Australia. I rocked up on the first day shocked to see a crowd of about 300 waiting for it to open….. I didn’t even think 300 people had the internet in melbourne! ;)

Running on the same dates as the StomperNet Live seminar which was happening on the other side of the globe, their was suprisingly alot of big names who still attended. Local aussie boy Ed Dale had his smiling face on the seminar letter, unfortunetly he couldn’t make it, as he was tied up with some Apple iPhone convention. (They hadn’t even told him they’d put him down to speak!)

Matt Haslem & Mike Filsaime
Mike Filsaime & Me
Still heavily hungover from the saturday night….
but with Mike speaking early, we went straight to
the seminar, no sleep)

These were some of the speakers who graced the stage:

  • Paul Blackburn (could listen to this guy all day)
  • Jennie Armato (energetic power house all round, “yeh baby”)
  • Andrew & Daryl Grant (nice honest couple)
  • Marc Dassault (Jay Abraham’s local credit card collector. I was warned to lube up before he came out… he sold very hard)
  • Christopher Guerriero
  • Brett McFall
  • Matt & Amanda Clarkson (eBay sellers)
  • Peter Sun (gave us all the most ‘writer downers’ of the seminar)
  • Mike Filsaime (personal favourite)
  • Stephen Pierce
  • Tom Hua (this little guy packed a punch, awesome ideas)

Throughout the three days, the speakers covered some a wide range of areas. Less selling could of been good though. An absolute tonne signed up for programs to double their business income…. well with the majority of the crowd without a site & business to begin with, I aint sure what they thought double zero was)

I was their mainly on the prowl for JV’s in my niche. So when they asked “how many of you don’t have a website yet” , and 75% of the people shot their hands up, I felt a tad out of place.

Thankfully, by fluke, I found myself sitting next to a guy who goes by the name of “Design Guru Ryan”. I was wrapped as I had someone on the same wave length, especially when the convo’s turned techinical, he was easily able to keep up with my nerd side.

I later found out he’d done the graphics work on the DayJobKiller site, and a few other sites I knew of. The weird things is, a few weeks later, my 12 year old blogger friend, David Wilkinsons was estatichow he was getting an aussie kid to do his site graphics for him, and I was like “dude omg, that’s Ryan!”
