Five Community-Wide Updates Not to Miss (Important News)

Hi everyone,
 
Mike Klingler here with some more exciting news.
 
As you've likely noticed, some major changes have taken place at Renegade Professional. 
 
We've started moving toward supporting more advanced "Smart Beginners," without forgetting about the 'newbies' of course.
 
Here's the reality we're here to help you face:
 
"Creating your own brand" and increasing your value in the marketplace is the ONLY way to stand out and build a business.  It doesn't matter what system, opportunity or program you hook up with, it remains a fact. 
 
And you must keep YOU in the equation--or it's not unique. 
 
Otherwise, it's just another 'thing' people pass on by.  They won't care.
 
Have you noticed that already?
 
That's why we rolled out Coaching Cognition last year, and soon to come, PBN, which stands for "Professionals, Businesses & Non-Profits (to help you actually develop your own products and become a full-fledged marketer who can actually consult and stand on your own two feet).
 
PBN will be a great way to attract higher quality people to you from Outside the networking industry (which is something the industry desperately needs right now).
 
But those two programs are just the beginning of what you'll see from us this year to help intermediate and advanced Professionals move further FASTER into attractive leadership online.
 
Today, we'll introduce you to the beginning of our product creation roll-out (if you're with Renegade Professional and most of you are--it's in your back office already!)  Our good friend, Jerry Chen, has created some training to kick this all off.  And its a "doozy"!
 
Pay close attention to these 5 updates below, by Eric Walker, our "Super Guide" of Super Guides.
 
Oh, and a final note:
 
If you often feel a step behind, it's likely because you're just perusing (but not "STUDYING") these emails. 
 
We don't just throw a bunch of marketing mumbo jumbo at you... we are delivering the goods in these emails.  We work hard to over deliver. 
 
Soak these educational opportunities up -- and you WILL advance forward quickly as a professional.
 
Partners in success,
Mike Klingler

Attention Smart Beginners--Make Sure You Get a Gravatar

Mike KlinglerMost of you have one, but many of you still don't.

I just set mine up today LOL  (that actually is sort of funny-it literally takes less than 2 minutes).

Having a "Gravatar" allows your photo so show up at many places throughout the Internet when you comment on blogs and websites. 

If you haven't done it already, set up your Gravatar now.

Dotty Scott created this short easy to follow video so you can do it quickly.

Dotty has been a tremendous contributor of the SuperGuide program, including creating the blog you will see where the Gravatar video is posted.

On behalf of the Renegade Professional community, thank you Dotty for your continued leadership!

Mike Klingler

P.S. Once you set it up, post a comment thanking Dotty for the video under the instruction tutorial.  You'll see your photo appear next to your comment, demonstrating to you that its worked!

Extremely Valuable Training In Discussion Area

Stop everyone,

Sometimes something happens where I have to stop what I'm doing and point your attention to a 'high-leveraging learning' opportunity.

The other day I brought your attention to a facebook page (different from the one you follow me at now) called fan pages.  Likely many of you are aware of it.

We started a discussion there.

What transpired over the last few days has been significant.

I'd like to encourage you to turn your attention to the dialogue there where people asked some questions, answered their own questions, and where I shared what I believe is missing right now from most people's business model: 

Themselves.

IMPORTANT! 

First, when you go in there, find and click on the Discussion called:

*** How To Use This Discussion Area ***

Click to review the discussion now, and quite possibly make a breakthrough in the next 20 minutes, that will carry on with you for life.

That's what can happen when you get a group of poeple together to 'hash it all out' -- particularly when they are going through a similar experience as you are.

By the time you study this discussion and return to what you're doing now, I suspect many of you will do different things, write different things, think different things about your business.

See you inside.

Watch Exactly How I Use Facebook To Network & Gather Leads

Mike Klingler here.

As most of you already know, I've been studying social media marketing for over 2 years with tremendous success. 

And I've committed much of my time to teaching what I've learned.

Now, the next chapter...

Over the last several months I've found some new ways to leverage what I like to call "The Power 5" social media locations to accomplish even more with less time.  It's exciting stuff. 

To show and tell, in the style of teaching I love to do, I'll be doing what I teach at my business Fan Page at Facebook, which is one of these Power 5 locations (this is different from the personal Face book page where you probably follow me at now).

I'll be showing you how to use the Facebook business pages to duplicate what I've learned with less time.

Follow what I'm doing at Facebook business pages so you can stay connected to this next phase of my teaching cirriculum.  What I do here will connect with my next version of training at Renegade Professional.

Click to become a fan and follow the process over next few months.  If you friended me at Facebook, you'll still need to become a fan here at business pages.

By the way, if you'd like to be able to talk with me, now you can.  Ask me your question at the Discussions Area once becoming a fan.

Partners in success,

Mike Klingler

Your Job As A Marketer -- (Witty, Powerful Clip)

Hi gang,
 
Mike Klingler here. 

This is one of my favorite speech clips from one of my favorite sites (TED).
 
Its not very long -- but it will forever change the way you look at your job as a marketer... unless you're already 'there.'
 
Powerful stuff.
 
 
Sharing the best I find!
 
Partners in success,
Mike Klingler
 
 
Power P.S...
 
One of the reasons I'm sharing this with you today is because I've been encouraging you to enroll with Mark Hoverson's course on "Branding and Direct Response Marketing." 
 
Because its a missing piece for most of you.
 
I see that many people "don't get" just how important this piece is for their dreams and goals--and its something I have NOT taught. 
 
The video clip above may help some get a new perspective on your role / job as a marketer (on the phone, offline, online, etc).
 
I believe this course will impact you immensely. 
 
The topic discussed in the speech clip I gave above gets to the core of the insight you must posess and the power you must harness to be a full-fledged successful marketer (prospector, direct marketer, affiliate--anything). 
 
It's about understanding and influencing people's perception on value.  Its about being OK with that power.  Without being OK with it, you will resist learning how.  As long as you resist learning how, you can't grow into a successful marketer--something required to move forward. 
 
After watching the video clip above, if you'd like to harness this power, Secure your enrollment here.
 
This Price Goes Up Considerably After Today...
 
After today (Saturday) the price of this goes up by $300.  That's what Mark decided in order to reward those who acted more quickly and so he could create that action.  These are things you must learn to apply in everything you do (prospecting on the phone and getting someone to take action, or getting someone to click on a link etc.)
 
By the way, I found a great comment by Keven Thomas who shares why he decided to take the course.  I found this at the blog RenegadeProfessionalNews.com
 
Keven writes,
 
"I had never heard of Mark Hoverson until his presentation at the Renegade Professional live event. He has a very unique and engaging teaching style that draws you in and keeps your attention. 
 
I can remember saying to myself as I sat there listening to him wow, this is a guy I want to get to know and learn from.

But what really set it over the top at least for me was when I heard him say “What good is off-page optimization (seo,social buzz,leveraging the news etc) if you don’t have direct response.

I’m really looking forward to this course.”
 
THAT was why I JV'ed with Mark to bring this course to our community.  Its why Ann Sieg and Mike Dillard both agreed to promote the course (the first time these two leaders ever promoted the same product).  Its because its really needed.
 
By the way, if you missed the two webinars by Ann Sieg and Mike Dillard, where they each interviewed with Mark about this course, here are the links below:
 
 
Spend some time seriously considering this course.

Ann Sieg & Mike Dillard Teaming Up?

Hi everyone,
 
Two friends of mine, Mike Dillard and Mark Hoverson (both marketing geniuses), got together yesterday to record a Webinar.

They're talking about something Ann Sieg has also been emphasizing to you lately--

That is:
 
"How to massively change your results in business by learning to get people to take action now (instead of tomorrow, which usually means NEVER)." That's Direct Response Marketing.

What they're teaching is one of the biggest "differences" between the marketing 'greats' and the rest of the marketers out there. Without it your marketing falls flat.

When I suggested to Dillard that he consider doing this webinar he immediately said yes and asked Mark Hoverson on.

Notice that this is the FIRST TIME you have seen both Mike Dillard and Ann Sieg endorsing the same thing.  That says a lot about how important this topic is.

So set aside some time TODAY and be sure to plug in, fully engaged. 
 
In fact, I suggest watching this now even if it means postponing some other things you have planned (doing this now means you move closer to the answers you seek now, instead of later--which usually means NEVER). 
 
((Note my call to action and application of direct response marketing in the line above--this subtle but powerful piece must be woven into ALL of your messages & marketing--boldly and sincerely)). 
 
To do it effectively, you must know what you stand for and why you promote what you do--at a deeper level.  That helps you determine your brand. 
 
Then, you will know when and how to give a call to action that makes a lot of people actually follow through (that's direct response).

I do it with you all the time. 
 
As does Ann Sieg, Mike Dillard and Mark Hoverson. 
 
All those who are successful do it well. 

Learn how too:
 
 
Did you catch the interview last week between Ann Sieg and Mark Hoverson? 
 
If you missed it here it is:

Click for Ann Sieg with Mark Hoverson (last week):

Both webinars (the one with Dillard and Sieg) will bring you closer to understanding these key marketing principles that create action and results.
 
Partners in success,
Mike Klingler

Support for Smart Beginners Gets Started -- Smart Beginner Training

Lots of supportive training webinars ahead for Smart Beginners at Renegade University or those just getting starting with Renegade Professional.

Or for those of you who are taking Mark Hoverson's Leadership Branding for Direct Response project, and want some extra training to supplement what you'll be learning with him. 

First things first, if you're not a Renegade University member yet, create a free account now by following this link --> Renegade University.

Doing so is the first "Smart Beginner" move because you'll be introduced to "attractive" marketing on the web, and get a clear picture of how to use Renegade Professional to take it all to the next level. 

In the coming weeks, we’ll cover the following:

Webinar: Attraction Marketing Starts Here – Attraction Marketing Basics, and What You Need to Have in Place (Inside & Out) — I just did this webinar, but I’ll actually re-run this webinar because it is a VERY important place to start.

Webinar: Branding with Blogs – It Doesn’t Have to Be Hard — Using the Renegade Professional training on how to set up a blog with SquareSpace as our foundation, I’ll go deep about how to generate up to 700 direct visitors a month in your first month of launching your blog.

It takes a little hustle, but it's all worth it when you know the specifics. We'll make sure you new bloggers are reaching the audience they intend to. Intermediate bloggers may learn a thing or two as well. 

Webinar: Smart Beginners Guide to Content Creation — This is an important one. This “Guiding” webinar will break through the common blocks most have in creating content for their target market. We'll be sure you never DON'T know what to write about.

Webinar: Email Marketing – Putting Your Blog Content to Good Use — Often for Smart Beginners, there is overwhelm. There is a lot of set up that is involved with setting up your internet marketing funnel so people can buy from you when you’re asleep, with kids, etc.

To be sure that can happen, everything has to be in its proper place. In this webinar, I’ll show you a few simple tricks that eliminate overwhelm by re-purposing the content at your blog in at least 7 different ways.

Webinar: Lead Generation – Putting the Pieces Together — Why the simple formula of (You + Branding) + Marketing = Success really is simple, and exactly what is needed to generate leads. We'll get down to the bottom of the over-used word "Value" and discuss what it really means.

Webinar: I've Built My Marketing Funnel – Now What? — Once you have your marketing funnel put together, and all the pieces fit, and you’ve even generated a few leads, what happens next? That’s exactly what this webinar will cover (calibration and tweaking).

BONUS Webinar: How to Attract Synergistic Relationships Through Video Marketing -- We'll not only show you how to make precise and easy (yes, I did say easy) two to three minute videos, but we'll also give you 9 big tips to leverage your videos to form synergistic relationships, and give the illusion that you're omnipresent (that's a good thing). 

Spread the Word
About These Training Webinars 

These webinars will be completely free, and open to all Renegade University and new Professionals. Of course, it makes a lot of sense for leaders and top affiliates to send their new referrals to these webinars too. We’ll be sure to get them off to a smart start while you can continue to earn affiliate commissions.

    Webinar Fails But Content Over Delivers (A+) -- Watch Below

    Scroll down the page to watch the recorded training. It's called "Attraction Marketing Starts Here - What You Need to Put in Place." Great content for Smart Beginners.
    -----------------------------------------------------------

    There was supposed to be a webinar tonight for Smart Beginners who are about to upgrade to Renegade Professional, or those who just recently upgraded to Renegade Professional. 

    "Supposed" to be a webinar, but things didn't go according to plan. This often happens in business, and in life. 

    When the webinar software kept booting us off the line, and things wouldn't start properly, I felt like that guy in the parking lot whose car wouldn't start.

    You know the guy.

    He's the one with frustrated eyes, and fumes pluming out his ears. You can see him behind his windshield mumbling to himself as the engine groans its last groans like a West Virginia coal miner whose smoked too many Pall Malls.

    Son of a Pickle!

    Our scheduled webinar never started tonight.

    After 20 minutes of "cranking that engine," it was futile. The engine wouldn't turn over.

    (::insert game show buzzer::)

    ---------------------------
    What Happened?
    ---------------------------

    I think I have to take the blame on this one.

    Here's why:

    1. I didn't realize that there was another webinar scheduled (at the same time)with our Goto Webinar account.

    2. Apparently, you can't run two webinars at the same time.

    Although, because of #1, I learned #2.

    In hindsight, I should have looked through ALL of our webinars (we host quite a few webinars) to see if there was any overlap. If so, I would have caught that there might have been an issue.

    Tough lesson to learn. Now I know. I apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused.

    --------------------------------
    The Lesson
    --------------------------------

    I could have gone to bed -- defeated. I could have pitied myself, or blamed someone else. I could have said "I could have" for the rest of the night.

    I could have thrown my laptop out the window (you know the feeling). 

    Instead...I took a deep breath.

    I came up with a plan, quickly implemented the plan, and I'll get to go to bed peaceful.

    I'll get to go to bed knowing that I wasn't a victim of my own circumstance. I'll go to bed knowing that instead of a bunch of people getting stood up for a webinar tonight, that they are going to wake up tomorrow morning, open their inbox and see this email with a link to the recorded training that was supposed to be a webinar.

    And...the entire Renegade University and Professional will also get to see it too.

    Often times in business and life, if a bad thing happens, a good thing will come of it.

    I believe in that (and you should too).

    Below you'll find top notch A+ content. I encourage you to watch it if you're having a hard time making attraction marketing work for you.  

    ---------------------------
    The Recovery Plan
    ---------------------------

    Coach always taught me to brush it off, take a deep breath, and jump back in the batter’s box.

    I’m baaaaaccck.

    Didn't miss a beat.

    I decided to record the webinar we were supposed to have, and give it away to the entire community.

    The show must go on, right?!

    Everything that you were expecting to receive as a result of registering for the webinar, Attraction Marketing Starts Here – What You Need to Have in Place, will be delivered.

    This is solid, free, pure value-based content (and worth every penny).

    Watch the Recorded "Supposed-to-Be" Webinar, Or Go Here for Bigger Video:

    When finished, leave a comment. Tell us what you thought, how it helped you, and what you'd like to see more of in the future.

    We'll be doing more and more of these webinars in the weeks and months ahead. Stay posted.

    Attraction Marketing Starts Here - What You Need to Have in Place (Live Webinar)


    Live Webinar this Thursday, February 11th 
    at 6 p.m. PST
     
    With one ear always pressed to the “underground,” as well as being fresh from the Renegade Professional Live Event, there is a re-commitment to weekly live training for Renegade University students.

    We're excited to address your needs, and help guide you toward a thriving internet based business.

    On behalf of Renegade Professional, join me, Eric Walker, this Thursday at 6 p.m. PST as I provide insight on Attraction Marketing during a live webinar.
     
     

    This hour long webinar will focus on the fundamental concepts
    of attraction marketing, where things really get started, and how that follows with the physical things you need to put in place.

    It’s really the ideal starting point for Newbies and Smart Beginners if you hope to do any of the following: 

     

    • How to put together all the things needed to start any business. Writing articles, building blogs, engaging with social media and trying to organize yourself is a waste of time if you are missing the THIS big point. 
    • How to generate leads so it doesn't seem so hard. Period. Hint: there is actually a step BEFORE mastering one marketing method that you must take.
    • How to have things to write about at your blog to generate leads for your (any) business (especially Network Marketing) so you can create content with ease.
    • How to get started. Knowing what to do first, second, third, etc.
    Attend this webinar and understand THIS concept, and your biggest frustrations will be eliminated.
     

     

    As a result of attending this webinar, if you’ve struggled with where & how to start with Renegade University/Professional (or any training program), you won’t anymore.
     
    Everything will become more clear. You will know exactly what you have to have in place to successfully start (or re-start).

    This webinar is geared toward Newbies and Smart Beginners who may or may not be Renegade University students, or just getting started with Renegade Professional.

    At Thursday's webinar, I’ll also show you examples of other Smart Beginners, or once-upon-a-time Smart Beginners who put the pieces together, and now, literally, have enough people approaching them that they are rapidly propelling themselves and business forward.

    Again, join me on Thursday at 6 p.m. PST for the webinar Attraction Marketing Starts Here… What You Need to Have in Place by following the link below:

    Do You Have Your Own Field General to Quarterback Your Business?

    Mike KlinglerHere’s a sports analogy that will really put things in perspective for you…

    I (Eric Walker) appointed Mike Klingler as the field general to quarterback my business (even if he didn’t know it at the time) in June of 2008 when I became a Renegade Professional.

    From my background in coaching youth sports and elementary teaching, I quickly realized Mike had a one-of-a-kind unique way of making everybody around him better.

    And here’s where the sports analogy comes into play...

    Mike Klingler is like a great point guard in basketball, or the type of quarterback in football who will be the field general that leads your team to the BIG score.

    How?

    Because of his uncanny ability to successfully read the entire field to make an important call. He identifies this as having a keen insight.

    Mike is the guy who will get you the ball at the right time in the right place so that you can do something with it.
    In a game of inches, it’s this advantage that can make up for the extra foot needed for the big touchdown in your business.

    With so many things happening all at once under the umbrella of, not only our nation’s economy, but the entire world economy, it can be hard to see the entire field.

    With all this uncertainty, there has arisen a tremendous need to find a new way to earn income to support your family and lifestyle. Security is no longer coming from getting a job from someone else; it has to come from YOU.

    To do this, people are forced to learn how to create value so that they can give something in exchange for something in return.

    But because of the pre-conditioned “norms” that brought us to this crucial point in our economy, creating value from your own interests and strengths no longer is something that comes naturally.  

    Hence, we’re at the cusp of what is being called “The Entrepreneurial Movement.”


    Being the field general that he is, Mike Klingler has seen this shift on the horizon for awhile.

    He recorded a succinct, to the point, four minute video that explains this Entrepreneurial Movement, and how you can position yourself to score a touchdown at the other end of the field.

    What Ann Sieg Says About the Entrepreneurial Movement 

    Didi Alcheva, Ann SiegThere is a statistic from June '09 issue of Parade Magazine that states by 2019 over 40% of the work force is going to be independent contractors.

    This means that 40% of the population will be their own business identity.

    This is a major paradigm shift for how the majority of people earn their wages.

    Take a moment to reflect on this…

    We all can see the world rapidly changing. But sometimes the hardest change to be made is the change we need to make inside ourselves.

    Predominantly, values have been focused on security and benefits. Robert Kioysaki calls this the ‘E’ Quadrant.
    If you’re going to be among the 40% who – whether by choice or necessity – are their own business identity, your values will shift to what Kioysaki calls the ‘B’ Quadrant.

    How are you getting to the ‘B’ Quadrant?

    He says it’s not money that will make you rich, its business skills. It’s this shift of focus to building business, investing your time into the development of yourself and others and the understanding that the number one asset a person can attain is a business.

    Doing so will allow your money to work hard for you, not the other way around.  

    No one understands this more, or can explain it better than Ann Sieg.

    Ann Sieg at Renegade Pro Live EventShe first learned of these values nearly ten years ago during her own quest to bring her husband home from long work days.

    In her journey, she wound up teaching these lessons to her son, and they later formed a million dollar business model together.
    Ann has been facilitating, accelerating and enabling people to create their own home economies so that they are more in control with their lives and futures.

    As part of the aftermath of the Renegade Professional Live Event, Didi Alcheva caught up with Ann to briefly discuss these changes that are underway.

    Watch this three minute video where Ann explains the underpinnings of this Entrepreneurial Movement, and how you can begin to make that all-important shift from ‘E’ Quadrant to ‘B’ Quadrant.

    Mom is Able to Teach & Guide Autistic Son to Start Own Internet Business with Renegade Professional Training

    Just as we promised, Marketing Merge is announcing another all expense paid winner to our Renegade Professional Live Event this weekend.

    But first, have you ever read anything more inspiring?

      Go ahead and read a portion from Rana Burr’s all expense paid Renegade Professional Live Event winning essay,

    “Nearest and dearest to me, though, is the guidance that I have been able to give to my 13 year old son as he builds his own internet business. Most people would have given up on the idea of him ever being able to support himself financially because of his autism.”

    Using Renegade Professional to integrate family into the culture of her home business environment isn’t the only reason Rana Burr was chosen as the second winner of the all expense paid Renegade Professional Live Event.

    Rana systematically broke down with succinct clarity how Renegade Professional has enhanced her business with specific and clear results.

    Read Rana Burr's Entire Contest Winning Essay 

    rana & kidsWhat Renegade Professional did for me was to fill in my marketing gaps, making me far more effective and knowledgeable.

    The comprehensive training offered here is awe-inspiring. It is also a resource that I can whole-heartedly recommend to marketers of any level.

    My further involvement in Renegade Breakthrough Mentoring as a home study student helped me to make huge leaps in my confidence and in my vision for my business.

    Here’s what has happened as a result:

    1. My upline asked me to lead a small group in developing a lead generation system for our team.

    Thanks to the knowledge I have gained through Marketing Merge, I was able to guide them through the process of setting up their own HubPages, Squidoo lenses, and blog posts.

    In addition, they are now back-link-building experts, so that our page is #2 on Yahoo for an extremely competitive search phrase, generating multiple leads on a daily basis.

    2. I have been able to offer my services to a handful of local business owners that I really like so that they can enjoy online success, too.

    This has been extremely gratifying in light of the current economy. Not only have I helped them to stay in business, but I am having fun and making money at the same time!

    3. Being involved with the Super Guide program, even though it has only been for a short time, has enabled me to team up on an amazing new project with someone I consider to be a superstar.

      Awesome.

    4. Nearest and dearest to me, though, is the guidance that I have been able to give to my 13 year old son as he builds his own internet business.

    Most people would have given up on the idea of him ever being able to support himself financially because of his autism.

    Thanks to Ann and Mike, I now consider him to be my business partner! He is so good at taking what he has learned and implementing it right away (as opposed to taking notes and adding it to a long list of things to do). I hope everyone will get to meet him someday soon. One last thing.

    The sense of community that Ann, Mike, Eric, Didi, and the rest of the team at Marketing Merge have built is incredible

    These guys are genuinely committed to seeing everyone be successful.

    I especially appreciate how they give their members opportunities to contribute on a regular basis. I don’t think there is another organization like theirs anywhere in the world, and I feel extremely grateful to be a part of it.

    Great job Rana! We’re looking forward to meeting you with the rest of the Marketing Merge community this weekend here in Portland, Oregon.

    The team here at Marketing Merge is happy that Renegade Professional has produced good results for you. This remains the motivation that keeps us continuing the product and program development that makes Renegade Professional the best training on the internet.

    Breaking News - Contest Winner Marie Leonard Responds with Unsolicited "Trimmed" Version of Winning Essay. Read It Here, Read It Now

    I woke up this morning to find a message from Marie Leonard with an abbreviated version of her winning essay. The word count was 439. It was just as brilliant. But the bigger (and more impressive) issue here is that no one asked Marie to do that. By no means did she have to or need to. It just goes to show what kind of special people we have in this community.

    Read her "trimmed" up winning essay below: 

    When I was nine, I had to watch over my 2 year old brother while my mum went to town for errands.

    Being nine, a little brother was more of a nuisance than a blessing, especially when potty time came around. I had explicit instructions to sit him on his little potty chair and do what was necessary when he was done. Oh joy!

    Once I had disposed of the removable pot, I had to extricate him from this contraption. The potty chairs back then had a movable arm that swung down in front of the child to stop them from getting up.

    Well, the arm got stuck.

    I tried everything. I shook and I pulled and at one point grabbed him by the ankles and dangled him upside down in the hopes that the potty chair would just fall off. No such luck!.

    You might be wondering what all of this has to do with being a Renegade Professional.

    Well, it wasn't until I became a Renegade Professional that I stopped hanging upside down by the ankles. It was here that I had to take stock of where I had been and where I wanted to go.

    Focus, resolve to succeed and confidence that I will succeed, are now my constant companions.

    As to what I learned?

    Nothing easier with Steve Anderson's insightful Wordpress tutorials clearly describing the funnel effect of marketing. Applying what I learned as a member of the link logic team further embedded in me the importance of SEO done right.

    The perks don't stop there, however.

    Thanks to Marketing Merge generosity, Daivd Garfinkel, copywriting guru, exploded the lid off Pandora's copywriting box in a 6 week Ultimate Copywriting Course that invariably has become part of my writing style today.

    Better equipped with marketable skills, I now feel confident building an SBI site that will deliver the kind of value people are looking for.

    However, the knowledge I now have weighs heavily upon my shoulders. I can no longer write just so-so, get by content. It's a matter of delivering value or not deliver at all.

    Having achieved super guide status and now participating as a PBN trainer developing the alternative health field is allowing me to give back. I am doubly blessed.

    Moreover, participating in the Coaching Cognition course has me ripping away any pretense at faking it. Here is a safety net without judgment. These coaching skills are now an important part of the resume that I bring to the online marketing table.

    Oh and by the way, my poor brother had to spend 2 hours shackled to his potty before deliverance came!

    Thanks Marie. You really didn't have to do that. You went above and beyond what was expected of you. I guess that keeps with what you were talking about by being able to give back just as much as you feel you are receiving.

    Keep eyes posted for another all expense paid trip winner.

    Contest Winning Copywriting that was too Good? (Seriously!)

    Get a load of this… here is some Renegade Professional News for you…

    Apparently, we got so caught up in the brilliance of Marie Leonard’s all expense winning Renegade Professional Live Event ticket essay that we missed something in our own fine print.

    Ooops! 

    When we invited you to reply at our Renegade Professional News Facebook page with your response for the contest, we specified it should be no longer than 450 words.

    We completely lost sight of this when reading Marie Leonard’s winning contest essay because it was so good; so captivating, we lost sight of one thing... It was longer than 450 words.

    (Don’t worry Marie, we’ll get you here even if we’re all taking turns pushing you in the wheelbarrow).

    Anyway, we discussed this as a team and came to a conclusion.

    Some could perceive this as an unfair advantage, and we don’t want that.

    We realized that we made an honest mistake, and we want to own up to it.

    So we’re going to announce ANOTHER ALL EXPENSE PAID LIVE EVENT WINNER. 

    That’s correct. We’re heading back to Renegade Professional News Facebook page to review the essays for one more deserving winner. 

    We’ll announce the winner in 24 hours.

    Please except our apologies for not reading our own fine print.

    With strong core values at the heart of our community, we feel it was important to communicate this to you. Be on the lookout tomorrow, as we announce another all expense paid Renegade Professional Live Event winner. 

    Sincerely, 

    Renegade Professional Team

    P.S. Late Breaking News - I woke up this morning to find a message from Marie Leonard with an abbreviated version of her winning essay. The word count was 440. It was just as brilliant. But the bigger (and more impressive) issue here is that no one asked Marie to do that. By no means did she have to or need to. It just goes to show what kind of special people we have in this community.

    Superb Lesson in Copywriting from Marie Leonard, Renegade Professional All Expense Paid Trip Live Event Winner

    You can read this story and receive much more at Renegade Professional News. Follow the link to get more of the "full scoop"  Renegade Professional News

    ========================================

    If you haven’t been keeping up with the Renegade Professional News, we happily announced the winner of the all expenses paid trip to the Renegade Professional Live Event in Portland, Oregon this January 16th and 17th during our Ustream broadcast we held at the Marketing Merge office.

    To participate, you simply had to go to our Renegade Professional Facebook page and state the ways in which Renegade Professional has made a difference for you.

    Over 55 of you submitted essays for us to review. And after reading and re-reading the contestant entries, it was Marie Leonard who clearly stood out as the winner. Her submission addresses the over-the-top value that Renegade Professional and the Marketing Merge community as a whole, has to offer.

    And likewise, as Marie so eloquently states in the conclusion of her submission, it’s not that she has only taken all this value to build up her skill set, and therefore realizing that becoming an internet marketer is not a pipe dream, it’s that the value she’s received is allowing her to give it back (in a big way). Marie you get it. You get it BIG TIME!

    There were two other winners who won one free admission ticket to the Renegade Professional Live Event. They were Dotty Scott and Angela Arnold. We will feature their winning essays at The Renegade Professional News.

    But right now – don’t hesitate – read Marie Leonard’s winning essay. Read every word.

    This is some of the best content you’ll read all year not because she gives so much credit to Renegade Professional.

    We say it’s the best content you’ll read all year because Marie clearly is using what she has learned, and that is brilliantly illustrated by the copywriting skills she employed to craft this essay. She also integrates humor, which is a great strategy for grabbing people's attention.

    And she did! She definitely grabbed our attention, and when you begin to read Marie’s essay, she’ll grab yours too.

    Marie Leonard's All Expense Paid Trip to Portland Live Event Winning Essay

    When I was nine, I had to watch over my 2 year old brother while my mum went to town for errands. Being nine, a little brother was more of a nuisance than a blessing, especially when potty time came around.

    I had explicit instructions to sit him on his little potty chair and do what was necessary when he was done. Oh joy!

    Once I had disposed of the removable pot, I had to extricate him from this contraption. The potty chairs back then had a movable arm that swung down in front of the child to stop them from getting up off the seat.

    Well, the arm got stuck and here was my poor brother, unable to get off the chair. I tried everything. I shook and I pulled and at one point grabbed him by the ankles and dangled him upside down in the hopes that the potty chair would just fall off. No such luck!

    You might be wondering what all of this has to do with being a Renegade Professional. Well, it wasn't until I became a Renegade Professional that I stopped hanging upside down by the ankles. It was here that I had to take stock of where I had been and where I wanted to go.

    I became more focused as I applied the lessons learned. My resolve to succeed grew.

    If Mike (Klingler)could do it, so could I.

    If Ann (Sieg), DiDi (Alcheva) and Eric (Walker) could do it, so could I.

    I now feel more and more validated that my decision to become an online marketer is not a pie in the sky dream, but a reachable vision that Renegade Professional has clearly articulated for me.

    Attending Steve Anderson's WordPress course was a real eye opener for me. It's not that I didn't know anything about WordPress. After all, I maintain two WordPress sites and do all the technical work myself. No, it's the concept of building a funnel structure that the search engines like, and that sets your site apart from all others that are just haphazardly put together, no matter how good the content.

    I could really appreciate the value of that knowledge and have since started to revamp my blogs with that structure in mind.

    What helped even further was being a member of the Super Guide program. And within the Super Guide program, being a member of the link logic team. This forced me to really understand the concept fully. As a Super Guide, I was practicing what was being preached!

    Moreover, I have now ventured into SBI territory, creating a site that I know will deliver the kind of value people are looking for.

    Eric Walker’s latest post to all Super Guides about burrowing down deep and becoming a relative expert/authority on one particular topic, gave me lots of food for thought. I love doing video and so have started a series of videos that will promote each tier of my site.

    Along with the specific knowledge I gained on keyword research and linking strategies, I can now easily see how to monetize it. Without the background tutorials provided in Renegade Professional, I doubt if my grasp of those concepts would be as clear today.

    Who said Pandora's Box was a bad thing!

    That's how I view David Garfinkel's Ultimate Copy Writing Course. As a member of the Super Guide program, I actually received Garfinkel’s course for free. He helped me “blow the lid,” and made it alright to use imagery and feelings in one's writing that captures the audience and keep them wanting more.

    It's not that I didn't know that one could not write this way, but what I didn't know was how I could.

    He clearly defined the guidelines and even gave us all templates to make the writing process even easier. What a guy! However, the knowledge I took away from this course weighs heavily upon my shoulders now. I can no longer write just “so-so, get by content.” I am now obliged to deliver in an entertaining and value driven way or not deliver at all.

    To top it all, taking the Coaching Cognition course has me ripping away any pretense at faking it. It is also providing me with a safety net I never had before. Knowing there is someone there who understands, and to whom I can confide my apprehension, successes and vision with, is too big for words.

    It is so huge that I feel compelled to provide the same service for others.

    After all, other people feel uncertain and apprehensive too and may need a sympathetic ear where judgment just is not part of the vocabulary.

    Again, if I hadn't become a Renegade Professional in the first place, I may never have advanced as far as fast. Being a Super Guide and PBN trainer to boot has allowed me to take, but more importantly, it is allowing me to give back. I am doubly blessed.

    Oh and by the way, my poor brother had to spend 2 hours shackled to his potty before deliverance came! Season Greetings to All, Marie Leonard Hope you enjoyed that. Thank you Marie Leonard! You are proof that what we’re doing is working. We certainly are looking forward to meeting you in two weeks here in Portland for the Renegade Professional Live Event

    Of course, there is more to Marie's story, the back story as it's called. You can read all about it and also find our other Live Event winning ticket stories at Renegade Professional News.
