GVO – Now They Really Know Something About Location, Location, Location

Jean — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 17:03:33 +0000

My oldest son is getting married next year. My friend saw it on Facebook!

No, actually he did tell me beforehand, and although I personally think he’s too young, I can’t say anything because I was married at twenty.

Anyway, ever since the news was announced I see wedding dresses and tuxedos everywhere!

At the weekend I went shopping with my youngest son, who has autism, and as we trailed round the charity shops looking for yet another old video to add to his collection, I noticed a shop with a sign saying the wedding dress in the window was a copy of the one Jordon had worn at her wedding.

Now, I can’t say I’m a fan of Katie Price, but I do feel sorry for her. Clearly her continual quest for attention indicates she’s lacking something in her life.

However, I was intrigued to see how much a copy of the dress would cost, so I went in and had a chat with the owner.

I remarked I’d not seen the shop before and he told me they’d been in the town for several years, but had recently moved premises.

He said the new location attracted passing trade, and offered more value for money because the premises were cheaper.

It seems moving a few thousand yards had made a big difference to him and his customers.

Hmmm …

I know someone else who benefitted in the same way when he moved his company…

The thing is, he didn’t move a few thousand yards, more like a few thousand miles…

…to a different country!

The best bit is, he took his family and all his staff with him.

Now that’s really taking location, location, location really seriously.

Crying again…Time for some M.A.D. marketing

Jean — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 21:52:59 +0000

Today is the start of another new month.

It’s also the start of my youngest son’s final year at college and the day I’ve decided I need to start getting my act together and really pursue my goals.

Like most things I’ve done in my life, my internet career wasn’t planned.

Infact, when I started on the internet, I didn’t even know what an internet marketer was, and whilst I’ve learned a lot, I certainly haven’t been exactly pro-active.

It’s been a pleasant journey, but yesterday it really hit me why I’m here.

My youngest son has autism. He’s 21 years old, mostly non-verbal and needs constant supervision – not because he’s dangerous or difficult (now), but because he’s vulnerable.

Jodi understands far more than he can communicate, but I’m very aware he likes to know what’s happening and if plans change he needs to be told in advance and given an explanation as to why.

His calendar is important to him.

Currently, he attends college in a different county several miles from home. He comes home for half-terms and school holidays, and until this summer, also came home every third weekend.

The days he was home were marked on his calendar in advance with a red cross.

However, as his life won’t revolve around term times after this final college year, I decided it might be best if we gradually introduce him to staying away for longer.

As much as I love him, I don’t want him to actually come back home to live. It wouldn’t be in his best interest.

He needs to continue with the independence skills he’s currently learning and not to rely on me being there all the time.

Whilst, we can never predict the future, hopefully I will die before him, so this time on his calendar, I only crossed off the half terms and school holidays.

When he hung the calendar up yesterday, the first thing he did was check to see when he was coming home.

I could see from the look on his face, he was concerned.

There were two months, September and November where there were no red crosses.

Slowly and deliberately, he took his finger, counted the days from the start of term to the third weekend and stopped.

Without uttering a single word, he asked me by the look on his face, and the questioning look in his eye…

“Why?”

I cried.

I felt really sad as I tried to explain how he’d be having a lovely time, and I’d see him during the holidays, but it reinforced my resolve to get serious with this online thing.

I don’t think my son will ever return home to live, BUT I want to be in a position to be able to support him in whatever way I can, and in order to do that I need to focus on creating a serious business, rather than just enjoying the journey.

Of course, if I’m very lucky, I’ll do both and won’t feel like crying again.

Guess it’s time to put all my past lurking, listening and learning into action and do some M.A.D. (Make A Difference) marketing!

GVO Conference – Will My Poem Make Me As Famous As Lewis Carroll?

Jean — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 14:06:42 +0000

I don’t know if I’m unusual, but I often think in rhyme, and ever since I fell backwards down the escalator at Kings Cross Station earlier this year, I’ve also seen tiny little cartoon shows inside my head too.

It used to worry me until the specialist at the hospital said it was an extreme form of migraine, consistent with a bang on the head.

He told me he was quite envious, because the only migraines he got were bad headaches, and went on to explain Lewis Carroll supposedly wrote Alice In Wonderland from the visions he’d seen when he’d suffered extreme migraines.

What do you think - If I ever document my experiences, will I be famous too?

Anyway, here’s my latest poem about something launching on 8th September, and which is about to take the internet by storm.

…and NO …

…it’s not something I saw in a vision!

GVO Conference

I’m not usually privy to internet launches especially ones predicted to be the biggest in online history, but …

…this time it’s different!

I happen to know GVOConference is launching in FIVE different languages on 8^th September, 2010.

It’s one of those things EVERYONE could benefit from, which is why I’m really looking forward to getting my hands on the product.

Of course, I do actually have it – sort of, because it’s part of the Titanium package I have with GVO, and you know I think that’s just the greatest affordable one-stop source for ALL your essential online marketing tools.

However, the NEW, stand-alone GVOConference product is much more powerful, so look out everyone…

…if you speak English, German, Portugese, Russian or Spanish, I could soon be finding my way into your world!

These Two Brilliant Resources Are Worth Celebrating

Jean — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 07:09:17 +0000

I don’t really like to promote individual products on my blog,especially in the internet marketing arena because they tend to date so quickly.

One day they’re the flavour of the month and
the next…

…well, you know the story.

Also, generally, I think many are overpriced.

Today, however, I’m going to tell you about TWO
I really believe in, so much so I’ve happily given testimonials
for both.

Depending on your interests, you may have heard of Aweber

It’s an autoresponder messaging service, hugely popular with
internet marketers, and allows people to connect with their
“lists”.

As automated tools go, it’s VERY good, and there are
lots of things you can do to enhance the way you use it, but…

…they take time to learn, and I don’t know about you, but
there just aren’t enough hours in the day to cover all the things
I’d like to know.

I’m often faced with information overload.

I just want to know the best bits, and that’s where
AwebExtra comes in.

This product is the creation of Paul Wilson and Rob J Bradley,
really nice chaps, both of whom I’ve met and interviewed.

So what is it?

Well, I recommend you go and check it out for yourself,
but basically it’s a set of videos revealing some REALLY USEFUL
tips and tricks using the Aweber service.

The best bit though is the price…

…only $7!

The second product I really like is Instant Traffic Secrets.

This is another GREAT BARGAIN and really over delivers.

The author, Richard Legg is a fellow Brit (although he now
lives in USA), and is incredibly thorough in his explanations.

As a Physics “Geek”, he likes to know how everything works
and systemises everything.

He’s brilliant, and so is his training product – Instant Traffic Secrets.

Not only does Richard give you a video training series to enable
you to get laser targeted visitors to your site from FREE Google
Traffic, but he also gives you a step-by-step PDF workbook
showing you exactly what to do.

Oh, and he throws in a list of all his favourite traffic getting resources.

…all for$9.97!

I couldn’t believe it either.

So there you go – two brilliant resources to either get you started
in internet marketing, or enhance your current efforts for less than
a night out.

That’s worth celebrating, don’t you think?

Go here for AwebExtra

Go here for Instant Traffic Secrets

Best wishes,

Jean Shaw

What Have Internet Marketing Legends Lee McIntyre And Andrew Fox Got In Common?

Jean — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 15:36:55 +0000

Lee McIntyre and Andrew Fox are both very well known internet marketers, and if you know their stories, you’ll discover they both have one thing in common.

What is it?

Well, apart from being young men who like to help people succeed using ethical marketing tactics and have fun at the same time, they’ve both washed cars for a living at one point in their lives.

However, they also both decided their fortunes lay in a different direction.

Recently, I interviewed Lee McIntyre and asked whether he thought anyone could change their life regardless of age, gender or work experience, IF they had the right mindset, tools and direction.

You can learn more by visiting Lee’s page on JeansBestRecommendedProducts.com

and NO…

he didn’t say, “only if they wash cars first”!

Chemicals in Cosmetics, Flu Vaccines And Mercury – What You Need To Know About Toxins

Jean — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 15:17:58 +0000

As you know I rarely talk about the same thing on this blog, but a subject I do mention fairly regularly are the toxins in our environment.

I probably wouldn’t have considered them but for the fact my son has autism, due I believe, to mercury in vaccines, and also because of the mercury poisoning I developed from the amalgam in my dental fillings.

That’s what my three TRUE story books are about.

Anyway, today I was talking to Pam, one of the case studies in my last book.
Her husband had almost died because of mercury, and his story and her persistence are the reasons both my second and third books were written.

I owe her more than a debt of gratitude…quite possibly my life, at least the one I currently enjoy.

I asked how Bryan was, and she told me he was getting on well now they’d stopped having their favourite Sunday paper.

Mercury poisoning leaves you very susceptible to all sorts of things, and it appears when the Mail On Sunday changed their ink so the print wouldn’t come off on readers hands, Bryan suddenly became incredibly ill.

Every Sunday, he would feel sick, become agitated, argumentative, tired, lethargic and dizzy. His symptoms increased as the day wore on, but the rest of the week he’d be fine.

The connection between the newspaper print and Bryan’s symptoms was only made when Pam chatted to Lynn, another fellow sufferer, whose story is also in my book.

She revealed she’d experienced exactly the same thing.

It’s the chemicals.

Both Pam and Lynn have reluctantly become experts on mercury poisoning over the years, and Pam often alert s me to news items she feels the wider public ought to be made aware of.

Today was no exception, and was partly due to her recent conversation with Lynn.

You see, whilst Pam was in the doctor’s surgery recently, she’d picked up an old issue of Top Sante. It’s a magazine for the body and health conscious woman, and she’d read an article on the Flu vaccine.

You might not be aware, but most flu vaccines contain mercury in the form of thimerosal. This is not an integral component, but is added to many vaccines to prevent bacterial contamination.

Thimerosal is 49.6% ethyl-mercury and there has been such concern about this mercury based derivative, it’s now thankfully been removed from many childhood vaccines, supposedly to, “make safe vaccines safer” .

Question:- If they were safe in the first place , how could they be made safer?

Anyway, the article in Top Sante queried whether the flu jab was safe for pregnant women?

The reply from Dr. Kate Sassin was – “The Department of Health advises it is safe for pregnant women to have the flu jab, but states they should try to have the thimerosal free (mercury free) version of the vaccine wherever possible”.

Hmm – does that sound as if the Department of Health actually believe the thimerosal version is safe to you?

Anyway, the reason she passed on this snippet of information to me was because Lynn had mentioned her pregnant friend had just had the flu jab and had tragically miscarried a week later.

Of course that could have been complete coincidence, but it’s worth considering if you know anyone who is pregnant and considering getting a flu vaccine.

Remember, you can get thimerosal free ones but I suspect you’ll have to ask for one.

You see the big pharmaceutical companies produce the vaccines in huge quantities and are pretty inflexible on returns apparently. I imagine, therefore, if your doctor’s surgery has already got a pile of flu vaccines in stock containing thimerosal, they’ll most likely want to use them.

Personally, I’d never have one and you can see why on my site here.

Another topic I discuss sometimes are the toxic synthetic chemicals in most skin and beauty care products and you can Get A Copy Of My Report here, but just to prove I’m not the only person aware of the situation, you might want to watch this video.

If nothing else, it should make you think.

Take care
Jean Shaw
