			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>What is the Difference between<br />
Google and Ebay that could make<br />
YOU profit FAST?</strong></p>
<p>made your guess?</p>
<p>ok, lets see if you got it right</p>
<p>See, this difference has nothing to<br />
do with their technology nor their<br />
features.</p>
<p>It is a difference between the<br />
crowds that visit the two websites.</p>
<p>Google&#8217;s visitors are people looking<br />
for INFORMATION on &quot;something&quot;</p>
<p>Ebay visitors are people looking<br />
to BUY a &quot;Something&quot;</p>
<p>BUT you ask,</p>
<p>&quot;I visit both ebay and google and<br />
a LOT of people do the same, aren&#8217;t we<br />
the SAME crowd?&quot;</p>
<p>YES, EXACTLY. you are on to something!</p>
<p>We are NOT talking about 2 completely<br />
different crowds. It may well be the<br />
exact same crowd that visits both sites.</p>
<p>Here is the big SECRET<br />
Ready?</p>
<p>The difference is in the TIMING!</p>
<p>People visit google WHEN they want<br />
to find information and they visit<br />
eBay WHEN they want to buy something.</p>
<p>EVERYONE buys things. Wouldnt it be great<br />
to be able to talk to your prospects<br />
WHEN THEY ARE READY to Buy?</p>
<p>But WHAT DO I sell?</p>
<p>You should sell something that meets<br />
the following criteria:</p>
<p>- Something that you can get MORE of<br />
- it has a high margin for profit<br />
- That can serve as the &quot;prequel&quot; to<br />
back end products<br />
- Requires the LEAST of your time<br />
- Potential to automate your process</p>
<p>My number ONE choice for these type of<br />
products is&#8230;</p>
<p>Digital content on CDs and DVDs</p>
<p>Yes, I am talking about INFORMATION<br />
such as a book on CD or a software<br />
or an audio book etc.</p>
<p>Products with Private Label rights and<br />
Master Resell rights are ideal.</p>
<p>It is SO easy to sell them.<br />
it goes like this:</p>
<p>get a bunch of ebooks, and post your listing<br />
on ebay. AFTER one sells, burn it and<br />
send it. Try again. over time you will<br />
find the ones that sell well and ONLY sell<br />
those.</p>
<p>Easy. Simple. Brilliant</p>
<p>Do IT.</p>
<p>When you use the MyDD software from<br />
<a href="http://MyDigitalDispatch.com" target="_blank">http://MyDigitalDispatch.com</a><br />
you can automate the entire process<br />
(it even integrates with kunaki to<br />
automatically burn and send your CDs)</p>
<p>I PERSONALLY built MyDD about 6 years ago<br />
I LEARNED programming Just to build this<br />
tool and have been using it ever since.</p>
<p>It became so popular that I hired a full<br />
time programming team to keep upgrading it<br />
and maintain this awesome system.</p>
<p>Download it from:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Differentiating in the information product business<br />
is not only crucial to our success but sometimes<br />
it becomes mandatory. Especially whey eBay changed<br />
their policies to not allow downloadable products<br />
to be sold through action or buy now type listings.</p>
<p>Turning a digital product into a physical one<br />
used to be something savvy marketers did to<br />
explode their sales. Now, when it comes to ebay<br />
we are *forced* to move that direction.<br />
Since the ebay changed happened, I started<br />
receiving one question over and over again:</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;How do I create a CD version of my ebook&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>There are many ways to do this but one of my<br />
favorite ones is &#8220;web style&#8221; approach.</p>
<p>If you are familiar with creating a simple website<br />
this will be very easy for you to follow.</p>
<p>The basic idea here is to create a simple website<br />
that delivers the ebook and all associated bonuses<br />
and put the website on a CD. Then make it so<br />
that when the CD is inserted in the computer,<br />
the website starts automatically.</p>
<p>Here are the steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Create a folder on your computer that will<br />
contain all the files that will go on the CD.<br />
Call it: &#8220;CD folder&#8221;</li>
<li>Inside that folder, create another folder that<br />
will contain the files that the user will see.<br />
call it &#8220;My Files&#8221;</li>
<li>In the &#8220;My Files&#8221; Folder, copy your ebook file<br />
and all the bonuses.</li>
<li>Then inside the &#8220;My Files&#8221; folder, create a<br />
SIMPLE webpage (thanks.html) that thanks the<br />
customer for the order and  has links to<br />
download the main product and additional<br />
download links for the bonusesTIP:  since your thanks.html is in the &#8220;My Files&#8221;<br />
folder and your product files also in the same<br />
folder, the URL to the download is simply the<br />
file name (trust me).</li>
<li>Then lastly, you need to make the CD start<br />
automatically. I use a free tool called:<br />
&#8220;CD interface Studio&#8221; which is free to download<br />
from <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&#038;ct=res&#038;cd=1&#038;url=http%3A%2F%2Fcdinterface.sourceforge.net%2F&#038;ei=BWOSSKXVNpqGsQO68eDrBQ&#038;usg=AFQjCNGl2wg2JC_QotCE84vTVBc2EYw58A&#038;sig2=hGlXPUDNcaJNMREmwD11TA">here</a>:<br />
I use the CD studio to make the thanks.html<br />
start automatically when the CD is inserted.</li>
<li>Burn the CD</li>
<li>TEST the CD if it works &#8211; You are done</li>
</ol>
<p>This process works great to convert your PLR products<br />
into CDs/DVDs and make a lot more money this way.</p>
<p>I am thinking to create a step by step video tutorial<br />
showing you exactly how this works. Let me know your<br />
thoughts by leaving your comments below.</p>
<p>If you are really interested to take your digital products<br />
and turn them into high quality physical products, I recommend<br />
you get a copy of Dave&#8217;s package <strong><a target="_blank" href="http://www.mydigitaldispatch.com/recommends/cd_resource">here </a></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This post is about the new eBay change<br />
in selling digital products in their marketplace.</p>
<p>Here is the related link:</p>
<p><a target="_blank" title="http://www2.ebay.com/aw/core/200803.shtml#2008-03-24125416" href="http://www2.ebay.com/aw/core/200803.shtml#2008-03-24125416">http://www2.ebay.com/aw/core/200803.shtml#2008-03-24125416</a></p>
<p>My thoughts:</p>
<p>Ebay will do what they think benefits the majority<br />
of their users. In this case they decided to crack<br />
down on the &#8220;sneaky&#8221; sellers that abuse the feedback<br />
system and YOU as the honest seller, are also affected.</p>
<p>Personally, I see this as a GREAT opportunity for<br />
people that understand marketing to thrive.</p>
<p>It actually reminds me of 5-6 years ago when digital<br />
products were actually selling for real money.<br />
This policy will weed out the people that bring<br />
YOUR prices down to almost nothing.</p>
<p>This is NOT the time to give up.<br />
To the contrary, this is the time to see<br />
the opportunity and take advantage of it.</p>
<p>I have been teaching my students for some<br />
time now, to use ebay as a LEAD GENERATION<br />
system and not necessarily to make profits<br />
from the actual items sold through the auction.<br />
The REAL money is the money you can make from<br />
promoting more expensive and related items to<br />
those leads.<br />
You start by instantly upselling an item immediatly<br />
after the ebay sale, and continue to promote to<br />
that customer all the way down your marketing funnel.</p>
<p>Whoever has been using this approach, will not<br />
be affected by this policy, but benefited.<br />
Ebay saw the lead generation potential of digital<br />
products and acted accordingly asking you to list<br />
them in their Lead Generation format; the Classified Ad.</p>
<p>====You CAN STILL AUTOMATE YOUR BUSINESS! ====</p>
<p>And to those that think MyDD is no longer good,</p>
<p>THINK AGAIN!</p>
<p>MyDD is more necessary NOW than ever.<br />
In fact, now you will be forced to see the REAL<br />
potential of the MyDD system.</p>
<p>Stay with me here and read below.</p>
<p>Digital Sales through classified ads CAN BE AUTOMATED<br />
the same way and never have to manually send out<br />
an email with the download links.</p>
<p>Listing a classified ad may in fact turn out to be<br />
cheaper for you since it runs for 30 days and you<br />
can include links and optin forms on them.<br />
(quick tip: on the thank-you url of your optin form,<br />
you can include the Buy Now LINK created by MyDD,<br />
and as soon as someone opts in, they can be redirected<br />
to payment. you can say something like:<br />
enter your name and email to receive ordering instructions.)</p>
<p>You should still use MyDD to send the product<br />
instantly as an additional free service,<br />
while person is waiting for the CD.<br />
Think about it.</p>
<p>Even though ebay restricts downloadable items now, ebay BUYERS<br />
(that means: YOUR customerS) still expect the<br />
IMMEDIATE download. So, you NEED to offer it to<br />
them IN ADDITION to sending the CD.<br />
You will still have the same advantage over the sellers that just ship.</p>
<p>There is Nothing to prohibit you from mentioning<br />
in your ad that they will be receiving the digital<br />
download as an ADDITIONAL BONUS. DO IT</p>
<p>There wont be any other way for people to instantly<br />
download a product they purchased with Buy NOW,<br />
unless you offer it as a BONUS to your CD.</p>
<p>You can also automate the sending of your CDs.<br />
A few of our MyDD customers use the BCC feature<br />
of the software, to instantly send an email to<br />
a person/company that burns the product on the CD<br />
and sends it out for them.<br />
Remember, the S&#038;H is paid by the customer.<br />
The price of the actual product can remain the same.</p>
<p>ebay prohibits Digitally Delivered PRODUCTS.<br />
However, certain items cannot be sent in any<br />
other way, nor be put on CDs.</p>
<p>For example, selling access to your private site<br />
(which COULD contain the same info as the book)<br />
can offer the same benefits as an ebook<br />
AND CAN be automated. MyDD can be setup to send<br />
a unique username/password for<br />
every customer that purchases an item.</p>
<p>Items in this category.<br />
- Access to your private forum<br />
- Access to your membership site<br />
- Webhosting<br />
- Account on your WEB-BASED software<br />
- Timely delivered newsletter *</p>
<p>None of the above can be put on a CD and<br />
there is NOTHING to download.<br />
MyDD in fact is the ONLY software that can allow<br />
selling of such services.</p>
<p>NOTE: since this is a new rule, this may be a<br />
gray area. Should you decide to list items<br />
in the above categories, I would suggest to<br />
give it a decent price (at least a couple of dollars)<br />
to avoid being flagged by the feedback policy.</p>
<p>in addition, you still NEED to capture all<br />
your customer&#8217;s information and organize them<br />
in an easy to use format so that you can run<br />
reports, send emails to all or groups of customers for additional sales.</p>
<p>Instant integration of your autoresponder software<br />
or service is also very important in your business.<br />
If you go the shipping route (and ship CD&#8217;s DVDs,<br />
printed material etc) there will not be a connection<br />
between your customer AND your email list.<br />
By using MyDD, your customer is INSTANTLY and<br />
automatically added to your mailing list software<br />
even when you sell physical products.</p>
<p>Do NOT underestimate the power of the INSTANT upsell.<br />
MyDD users report up to 500% increase in their profits<br />
by using INSTANT upsells with their ebay items.<br />
Even though you will be able to include a brochure<br />
with your package (when you ship the physical disk)<br />
NOTHING beats the effectiveness of an IMMEDIATE upsell<br />
that takes place moments after the purchase.<br />
In fact, you SHOULD include a brochure in ADDITION<br />
to the instant upsell with MyDD.</p>
<p>If you have any concerns or comments, please post here<br />
and I will be back to address them.</p>
<p>I was going to include more info here, but the<br />
post got way too long so, I ll wait and post more<br />
later.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rumor has it that I fell off the<br />
face of the earth!</p>
<p>Sorry to disappoint <img src='http://SocratesBlog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Truth is, I spent the last couple<br />
of days in bed sick. I am a lot<br />
better today but here is the kicker:</p>
<p>Apparently being in bed, I didnt<br />
really spend any time in front<br />
of the computer (other than checking<br />
my email on my laptop)</p>
<p>So&#8230;</p>
<p>I wake up saturday morning, turn<br />
on my computer, and I logged into<br />
my back office to check my sales&#8230;</p>
<p>Over $3209 in sales while I was<br />
in bed sick for 2 days.</p>
<p>That is over 10 times more than<br />
some people that I know make at<br />
their full time job when they<br />
actually SHOW UP!</p>
<p>All my sales come from the internet<br />
and on AUTOPILOT which means wheather<br />
I am there or not, sales will pour in.</p>
<p>And that, my friend, did not happen<br />
by chance. I honestly worked hard<br />
for it.</p>
<p>But</p>
<p>It ALL started with one thing<br />
It ALL started on one single Place<br />
It ALL came together with ONE Idea</p>
<p>It all started with Resell Rights products<br />
on eBay and the idea of automating the<br />
two.</p>
<p>I can definitely and publicly admit<br />
that using Resell Rights and using eBay as<br />
a leverage, I built a six figure business<br />
in less than a year.</p>
<p>Profiting from resell rights products<br />
can be as easy as:</p>
<p>- Putting an ad on eBay<br />
- Having a bank account<br />
- Ability to check your email<br />
* Following a proven BLUEPRINT plan</p>
<p>Oh, did I tell you that I am not<br />
alone?</p>
<p>Other people that actually take action<br />
can achieve similar results.</p>
<p>One such person is my friend John.<br />
John has built a 6 figure business<br />
by selling resell right products on<br />
ebay.</p>
<p>John also documented the whole process<br />
STEP by STEP in videos.</p>
<p>I saw it!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s So Good<br />
It&#8217;s a no brainer<br />
It is Really Step By step.</p>
<p>Weather you are a totally new or a<br />
seasoned marketer, this blueprint will<br />
teach you things you didnt know ( i even<br />
learned some things I will be using soon)</p>
<p>Today you can actually get your hands<br />
on John&#8217;s Videos and the complete blueprint</p>
<p>In fact I am so excited, I ll throw in<br />
my own bonus. When you get John&#8217;s Blueprint<br />
today, I ll also send you the full<br />
Private Label Rights teleseminar Audio<br />
in MP3 format where you will learn<br />
how to profit from PLR and How to outsource<br />
effectively</p>
<p><strong><a target="_blank" href="http://MyDigitalDispatch.com/recommends/john">http://MyDigitalDispatch.com/recommends/john</a></strong></p>
<p>Get the blueprint from my link today<br />
and not only i ll send you the MP3, I ll<br />

from here and forward me your receipt<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Blog Reader,</p>
<p>After MANY requests I am doing a<br />
series of Lessons to educate<br />
YOU, of all the stuff you can do<br />
with MyDD to superBoost your Business&#8230;</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s Topic:</p>
<p>Multiple Item Sales/Auctions</p>
<p>Starting with MyDD 3.1, (released<br />
Dec 11, 2007), MyDD can also handle<br />
Paypal &#8220;Add to Cart&#8221; Buttons</p>
<p>AND&#8230;</p>
<p>Multiple Items on eBay. This means<br />
that your website or ebay customer<br />
can purchase More than ONE item in the<br />
SAME transaction and MyDD will<br />
automatically handle the SECURE delivery<br />
of ALL items in that transaction.</p>
<p>If you havent downloaded MyDD yet<br />
go here:</p>
<p><strong><a target="_blank" href="http://mydigitaldispatch.com/recommends/MyDDn_Tip1">http://mydigitaldispatch.com/recommends/MyDDn_Tip1</a></strong></p>
<p>Here are some profit boosting ideas:</p>
<p>1. If you currently sell ONE product<br />
on your website, replace the Buy now<br />
button with an Add to Cart button,<br />
and allow the customer to &#8220;ADD&#8221; an<br />
cheaper related item to their purchase<br />
(over 28% take My addon)</p>
<p>2. On your ebay store, you can now<br />
encourage people to buy more items<br />
for a shipping discount.<br />
(MyDD will send all of them)</p>
<p>3. Have a &#8220;resource&#8221; type store<br />
with ALL your digital products<br />
on your website and send<br />
customers AFTER they buy from<br />
you on ebay for more stuff<br />
(hint: use add to cart Buttons to<br />
allow people to buy multiple<br />
items from your resource store)</p>
<p>4. If you already offer more than<br />
one items on one page, then<br />
replacing the Payment links with<br />
&#8220;add to cart links&#8221; can boost<br />
your value per customer</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today&#8217;s Topic:</p>
<p>** Build your Email List<br />
Automatically with MyDD</p>
<p>** 4 Profitable Ideas to<br />
Put into Action Immediately</p>
<p>Starting with MyDD 3.1, (released<br />
Dec 11, 2007), MyDD can also be<br />
integrated with ANY autoresponder<br />
service or mailing list software.</p>
<p>This means that your website or<br />
ebay customer can be Automatically<br />
added to your mailing list at the<br />
time of their payment (while you<br />
are out doing something else)</p>
<p>this is VERY powerful. In fact,<br />
MyDD can add your customer to<br />
a DIFFERENT mailing list Based on<br />
the Product they purchased.</p>
<p>This way you can keep your lists<br />
segmented so that you can do very<br />
targeted promotions.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t downloaded MyDD yet go here:<br />
<strong><a href="http://mydigitaldispatch.com/recommends/MyDDn_tip2">http://mydigitaldispatch.com/recommends/MyDDn_tip2</a></strong></p>
<p>Here are some profit boosting ideas:</p>
<p>1. Find some affiliate programs<br />
that are very targetted to the<br />
digital products you sell on ebay<br />
and create an autoresponder series<br />
promoting the aff. programs.<br />
MyDD will handle the &#8220;adding&#8221; to your<br />
autoresponder so you can make<br />
autopilot commissions</p>
<p>2. Using an autoresponder system, send<br />
your customers more offers automatically<br />
at regular intervals after they<br />
purchase. (after 1 day, 3, days, 5 days<br />
etc). Based on my tests, I get<br />
over 18% conversions up to the 8th<br />
time I send an email about the SAME<br />
offer. dont leave money on the table.</p>
<p>3. Use your mailing list to keep<br />
bringing those customers back<br />
into your ebay store for more stuff<br />
(HINT: Ebay store items cost far LESS<br />
to be listed)</p>
<p>4. And the biggie: Get your customers<br />
to know you by automatically sending<br />
them a series of emails. This<br />
Relationship-Builder, will be<br />
crucial when you decide to promote<br />
ANY products to your customers in the<br />
future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just witnessed the SIMPLEST<br />
most innovative way of building a<br />
large mailing list, get this&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;WITHOUT a SQUEEZE Page!</p>
<p>In fact, you give ANY product<br />
away for free, or you Sell it<br />
on eBay for cheap and voila&#8230;</p>
<p>Your list is on the Way</p>
<p>This is one of the most Viral<br />
ways you can generate a massive<br />
mailing list, by selling<br />
resell rights products.</p>
<p>Let me explain how this works:</p>
<p>1. You have a product<br />
(ANY Digital Product will work)</p>
<p>2. You run it through a &#8220;special&#8221;<br />
software that LOCKS it with<br />
a special CODE</p>
<p>3. You give it away or sell it OR<br />
have others distribute it for you<br />
by granting master resell rights</p>
<p>4. Everyone that gets a copy of the<br />
software MUST enter their name<br />
and email into YOUR autoresponder<br />
in order to get an unlock code.</p>
<p>4. You sit back and watch your list Grow<br />
(Seriously)</p>
<p>I used a Similar Method last year<br />
that added over 1230 people to my<br />
list by giving away ONE ebook</p>
<p>I strongly urge you to get yourself<br />
a copy of this powerful software Today.</p>
<p><strong><a title="List Building Software" target="_blank" href="http://www.specialurl.com/go.php?c=boomerang">www.BoomerangListBuilder.com</a></strong></p>
<p>Dan is allowing me to tell you about<br />
the software, while its still in the<br />
introductory pricing.</p>
<p>If you give away or Sell ebooks in<br />
any way, you NEED this software.</p>
<p>Not having it, its just leaving<br />
money on the table, and I mean that<br />
with all my heart.</p>
<p>Download your copy of Boomerang List<br />
Builder from here:</p>
<p><strong><a title="List Building Software" target="_blank" href="http://www.specialurl.com/go.php?c=boomerang">www.BoomerangListBuilder.com</a></strong></p>
<p>This is NOT any type of opportunity<br />
where you have to change everything<br />
you do and introduce a whole lot of<br />
new headaches to your business to make<br />
it work</p>
<p>NO Way. I wouldnt even tell you<br />
about this if it was complicated in any way.</p>
<p>You JUST Lock your products ONCE and<br />
keep doing what you &#8216;ve been doing<br />
all along. (with the exception that<br />
now you are now making a list on autopilot)</p>
<p><strong><a title="List Building Software" target="_blank" href="http://www.specialurl.com/go.php?c=boomerang">www.BoomerangListBuilder.com</a></strong></p>
<p>Imagine, locking 20 ebooks and<br />
selling them with resell rights on<br />
ebay.</p>
<p>Then you sell 10 copies a day.</p>
<p>that is 300 new people to your<br />
list every month.</p>
<p>BUT WAIT&#8230;</p>
<p>What if 5% of the 300 people sell<br />
the product with Resell rights?</p>
<p>then you got 30 people selling<br />
10 a day.<br />
Let them keep all the money.<br />
Because they have to enter their<br />
name and email on YOUR website<br />
to get the Unlock code.</p>
<p>30X300/month = 9000 subscribers<br />
on autopilot (that&#8217;s just the first<br />
month).</p>
<p>its a NO-BRAINER</p>
<p>Grab a copy right now and<br />
start buildig a list today.</p>
<p><strong><a title="List Building Software" target="_blank" href="http://www.specialurl.com/go.php?c=boomerang">www.BoomerangListBuilder.com</a></strong></p>
<p>I cant believe Dan beat me to it and<br />
made this software before me!</p>
<p>Till Next time,<br />
Partner to Your Success,<br />
-Socrates Socratous</p>
<p>P.S. If currently sell/giveaway<br />
ANY digital product, this product will<br />
be Plug-n-Play profits for your business</p>
