TABLE OF CONTENTS:

Happy Tuesday to you!

I hope all is well in your world this week. We're still enjoying record temperatures here in Bama, but we're also seeing record pollen counts.

You know it's bad when you cough and a green cloud appears :o)

First up this week is my latest newspaper column that tells the tale of a young man from a remote African village who proves that it doesn't matter where you live or how much money you have, you can start a business if you just never say never.

Second is a column from last year on how to deal with spam; a topic that unfortunately never goes away. The title says it all: there is no way to avoid spam so you might as well just learn to deal with it.

Next up is exciting news from Michael Cheney about the release of his new traffic generation course. This is great stuff and I highly recommend it to anyone who needs to get more traffic to their website (isn't that all of us :o).

Also you can download the audio from my last radio show, which dealt with all kinds of topics, including tax issues for small businesses, how to avoid tax deductions that may trigger an audit, how to start a home business, and the best way to sell commercial real estate.

Heck, Paul and I can talk about anything :o)

You can listen online or download the podcast to your iPod.

And finally this is the last week to register for the Nashville, TN training event that I'll be speaking at next week.

The focus is on affiliate marketing, which is one of my very favorite streams of income, so I hope to see you there.

All this and more below.

Enjoy!

When It Comes To Starting Your Own Business Never Say It Can't Be Done

I ran across an interesting article in Wired magazine this week that told the tale of Kolo Soro, an elementary school teacher in the tiny village of Tomono in the northern Ivory Coast of Africa.

This is an area so remote and void of technology that for generations communication between villages has been done by tying notes to rocks and having passing trucks toss them out the window at pre-described locations.

Kolo Soro changed all that when he purchased a cellphone during a visit to a larger city and found that if he held the phone seven feet off the floor in a corner of his bedroom he could get a decent signal.

Being an enterprising young man he hung the phone on the wall, hooked up an earbud, and started charging his fellow villagers 80 cents per minute to make calls.

He earned $200 the first month.



You Can't Avoid Spam, So Learn To Deal With It

Due to the nature of my business, I get a lot of unwanted email.

I've been working on the Internet since 1995 and my email address has been publicly exposed for most of that time, so I am a spammer's delight.

It is no exaggeration to say that I used to receive more than 400 email messages a day.

Out of those 400 messages about 10% were from people I knew, 10% were from people I needed to know, and the rest were from people that I would like to track down and field dress with a very dull knife.



Michael Cheney's Traffic Video Home Study Course Now Available

Last week I sent you the link to a free report from Michael Cheney on the top traffic mistakes most online marketers make.

Many of you downloaded the free report and wrote to thank me for it (and I passed those thanks on to Michael :o)

I'm now happy to report that Michael has released his brand new traffic generation home study course that is the most complete course on traffic generation that I've ever seen.

It's called...

** Michael's Traffic Videos Home Study Course **

Duh... a simple name for a killer course. :o)

If you'd like THE TOP traffic expert on the planet to take you by the hand and teach you via video how to drive massive amounts of traffic to your site, here's your chance.



Last Chance To Join Me In Nashville, TN On April 13

Last week I told you about 2 upcoming live training events that I'm going to be attending this month. To refresh your brain, they are: Rhea Perry's "Affiliate Marketing Conference" in Nashville, TN on April 13.

And...

Ken McCarthy's "The System" seminar in Chicago, IL on April 27:

As I said last week, many of the seminars now are just giant pitchfests and not worth your time and money, but these are two exceptions.

This is also your last week to sign up for the Nashville event, so make sure you check that out now.

Here's that link again:

I hope to see you there.

Craig Richards is a retired London bus driver who started an online business selling public domain information totally from scratch and built it into a $100,000 a month profit generator in just four months.

"How I Increased My Adsense Revenue 400% In 24 Hours"
I told you a few weeks ago about the new videos from Michael Cheney, the young Englishman who went from $2 a day to $19,156 A MONTH in Adsense revenue in less than a year.

I personally ordered Michael's videos and tested just one of his ideas on my own Adsense account and here's the honest result:

I had averaged $10 a day on this particular Adsense account for over 3 months. I implemented just one of the ideas from Michael's videos and within 24 hours my Adsense income jumped to $50 BUCKS!

That's a 400% INCREASE IN 24 HOURS!!

Think I'm happy I bought Michael's videos? Darn right I am :o)

Michael will even let you watch one of the videos free:
