1. Affiliate Marketing IS NOT a Business
=====================================

I've been told I'm crazy and out of touch
for saying that "affiliate marketing is not
a business for newbies". Even if someone
"takes you by the hand" and shows you
"step by step" how to do it your odds of
success after MONTHS or even YEARS of focused
effort ARE ABYSMAL (how many "gurus" are
telling you that part of the story?),
and on top of that you'll be the one taking
all the risk giving leads to other people's
businesses while fighting hundreds of
competitors for the right to do so!

It's starting to really tick me off actually!

The truth is, even online marketers with years
of experience are abandoning affiliate marketing
the way it's being taught. 

Check out this latest blog post with even more
evidence that I've been right about affiliate
marketing for years!

Let me know your thoughts! I'm happy to debate
the issue or clarify any points of confusion. 
In other words, "bring it!"

=====================================
2. "Silent Sales Machine" update
=====================================

As you may have heard I'm slowly rolling out
the latest update of what is arguably the
all time most sold, most read, and most
"foundational to the online success of thousands"
ebook in the world.  It has helped literally
thousands of people with their online businesses
and I've just re-written it top to bottom.

Rather than hear me say more about the latest
$5 update of "Silent Sales Machine" here are
some words directly from a recent reader:

------
"Hi, Jim, I wanted to share with you how much I
am getting out of your re-release of The Silent
Sales Machine (7.0) 

Every chapter has golden nuggets and reaffirms
many things I thought. As you know, I've used your
advice to create my business since May 2010.
I URGE anyone who wants to create the life of their
dreams to read The Silent Sales Machine.  It is more
than 100 pages of REAL CONTENT with details and
even what NOT to do...if I were to only suggest one
AUTHOR to read about online marketing...
it's JIM COCKRUM. 

Heck, even the way Jim writes the book is a big
CLUE about how to use ebooks to market your business.
Thanks, Jim! I really, really appreciate all you do
to help me and others. I am so happy I have been
fortunate to have met you in person, so when I read
your work, it is like you are talking directly to me!"

3. Quick Tips
========================
***QUICK**TIPS***
=================
I want your story!

Some of the most inspirational parts of any book
are the big (and little) stories of success from
others.  It's also great exposure for you,
your brand or your website to share your story!

The people behind the stories that made it into
my book at 101FreeMarketing.com are reporting back
to me in some cases thanking me for the positive
exposure they've gotten!

If you've used any of my books, ideas, membership
sites or courses to succeed please send me your story.
We can be as specific or as vague with your story
as you'd like (it MUST be true and verifiable of
course), but it will be used to inspire and encourage
others on towards success.

***QUICK**TIPS***

Including images in email marketing

I've just recorded a short video (posted on youtube)
that shows you how to make sure your customers
and prospects are able to see the images that you
include in your email messages.

NOTE: I DON'T typically use images in mass email
blasts like the newsletter you are now reading.
This is because mass-mailed/graphic intensive email
is very likely to get blocked by aggressive email
filters.   I do however use images frequently in
"drip" or "follow up" campaigns where the number of
recipients is smaller on a day to day basis.
