We’re not even out of January yet and already this year has taken off with a bang for me.

I’ve had projects flooding in (so many I’m going to have to turn a few down) and I’ve had such a lot of great information flowing my way that I now have everything I need to launch the Information Products section of my business that I’ve been planning for over a year now. Phew. Talk about procrastination.

I have to admit I thought long and hard before deciding to pass the information that follows along. In the end I decided to stick with my old, tried and true motto: What goes around comes around. So here goes.

Please, go and take a look at the ReLaunch Video before you download the very important PDF at the bottom. But don’t forget to come back here and find out what’s going on.

Online marketing is getting more sophisticated all the time. In fact, it’s getting hard to know which new strategies to adopt: there are so many of them, and most of them are difficult to understand and may only have mediocre results unless you’ve really got the concept.For some time now I’ve been following the activities of an online marketer who has been online for about the same time as I have. He has been phenomenally successful, and I for one am rabidly interested to learn how he does it. If you’re getting glazed eyes here (I know there’s just so much marketing information out there), let me snap you back to attention here: In 2007 he made…

OVER $15 MILLION

Now that, in itself , should be enough to make the rest of us obsess over what this man does or does not do to be such a raving success.

The fact is that he’s also one of the best, if not THE BEST online teacher I’ve come across personally, and as you can imagine, in the past 12 years I’ve read a fair number of reports and watched too many videos, learning and searching for the best way to do things online.

Most of the time I’ve been disillusioned to put it mildly. I hate it when entrepreneurs throw their ethics out the window in an effort to scratch their way to the top (which sadly, most of them do). I also hate it when they tell me only part of the story–it becomes obvious that there are gaps in the information they’re giving me so I couldn’t possibly duplicate their achievement if I wanted to.

I attach a lot of importance to truth and honesty. I can’t help it; that’s just the way I am. In the times we live in, I admit it’s a recipe for extreme lack of fulfillment.

Imagine my surprise then, when this marketer started putting out tons of material that must be worth 100s and 100s of dollars (if not thousands) absolutely for free as part of the process of promoting his upcoming mega-product. You have to admit that would be a great way to let people know how good your product was going to be.

The marketer I’m talking about is Armand Morin. To me there’s no one like him online. He’s direct, explains his simple-but-highly-effective concepts in a simple and easy-to-understand way, and he doesn’t pull his punches. He tells you everything you need to know to make it work–even if you never have before.

His strategies can be applied to any kind of online business, whether you’re selling a service, a digital product or a physical product. Most important of all, whether you’re completely new to the Internet or you’ve been knocking around for as long as I have, you’ll learn something from Armand: I’m certain of it. I read this report straight away simply because it mentioned a concept I’m quite fond of: An Obvious Truth. Go get it right away and watch all the superb marketing videos Armand has put up for us before he changes his mind.

For years many of us have been battling it out online trying to play all the roles in our small businesses. The trouble is this means most of us have little or no spare time for ourselves, and it becomes practically impossible to get anywhere no matter how brilliant we are. It’s like a juggler trying to keep 100 balls in the air
Now, many successful online business experts are sharing that the key to their success was admitting the fact that they couldn’t do it all, and taking on a list of experts to help them with specific aspects of the business they were trying to build.

If this concept interests you, and it should no matter how good you are, read Eben Pagan on the subject. Many other online marketers recommend outsourcing part of your business operation one way or another: Russel Brunson is just one of them.

I’m a Brit. However, I took advantage of the fact that I live overseas to choose to do business online from an American perspective. At the time I made this choice (1997) because US companies were–and still are–much more open to letting their employees telecommute.

The biggest mistake most businesses make when considering their brand, is thinking of themselves as an isolated entity. No one is an isolated entity, and as far as your brand is concerned, being isolated is not even slightly desirable.
