Launch Tree videos

Undoubtedly you should have heard of Launch Tree and the big buzz associated with it. If not, you probably should check your email inbox since May 12th, 2009. It launched at 12 noon ET.

During the pre-launch, they (Anik Singal and Mike Filsaime) released video interviews of some of the IM’s biggest names. These people included Frank Kern, Russell Brunson,  Andy Jenkins, and Brian Johnson. Brian Johnson is Rich Schefren’s right hand man. You should know who the other people are. If not, just google their name!

Last year, Frank Kern (Mass Control), Andy Jenkins (StomperNet Formula Five), Mike Filsaime (BFM 2.0 and newsletter) were a buzz. And the PPC Classroom 2.0 relaunch with Anik Singal that just finished could months ago were based on some of the launch formulas that were used in the Launch Tree.

If you have missed some of the pre-launch videos, here they are! I don’t know how long they will be available. I think they probably will take them down as soon as the launch is over with. They are only allowing limited numbers of people into their low priced program.

And it is low priced: try $77!

Here are the videos: these videos rock!

 Brian Johnson: 

Andy Jenkins: Part 1

Andy Jenkins: Part 2

If you have ever thought about how these launches were pulled off, then definitely invest in these program. Only $77! Can’t beat that while you get the chance to learn everything from how these were planned and pulled off such big amounts in such short period of time.

Sure, they needed lots of JV partners to do this. But, hey maybe they will reveal some of the ins and outs of getting JVs. Some of the mindmaps alone would worth the price. Remember, just anyone of these launches alone would pull in millions!

I have just downloaded and read this report by PPC Classroom, 5 deadly affiliate mistakes.

All I can say is go and download it! It’s a 33 page quick read. It took me just 20 minutes and I even posted a comment in their blog all within 20 minutes.

As you probably have guessed, this is an affiliate promotion.

I originally signed up with PPCClassroom 2.0 last year. To be totally honest, I haven’t even finished the original 9 modules! I think I’ve only finished the first module.

My thinking up to this point was to try to go the “free” route using web 2.0 tactics. I have mostly used blogging as a platform. I have also tried Squidoo. But to be honest, I am not getting too good of repeating visitors.

About a month ago, I started to incorporate articles in my posts. I started to see some improvements in visitors. But still not too good.

In order to fully “made it” in affiliate marketing, I believe you have to incorporate all traffic souces at your disposal. And that include free and paid sources.

Free traffic sources include web 2.0, article marketing, blog and ping.

Paid traffic sources would be the PPC traffic., newsletter, PR, etc.. You start a PPC campaign and for each visitor who clicked on your ad, you pay. It’s a simply system.

Of course, like everything else, the more competition there is, the more you have to be better in your advertising. This is same for free and paid sources.

Having tried some of the free traffic sources, I would think that paid traffic has its advantages. Granted, I haven’t tried all of the free sources. Article marketing, for example, is one that I have yet to do.

It’s a matter of trading time and money. If you are a newbie marketer and with limited resources, you might want to try the organic or free traffic sources’ route. With this, you have to position yourself as a brand and an expert. You have to get people to talk about you and your site. Only then would you able to get repeat visitors and then customers.

Fast trek to PPC and it would only take 10-20 minutes for an ad in Adwords to show up in Google paid listings. Adwords is simply the fastest in terms of speed to market. There are others like Yahoo!, MSN, Miva, and other smaller PPC engines. But Google Adwords is still the best.

So if you are looking for getting more traffic to your site and more eye balls for your offer, PPC would be a great way to go.

Sure, you have to manage your campaigns. But you have to spend money to earn money. As long as you follow simple directions and manage your compaigns, you shold start to see results.

PPC Classroom 2.0 is relaunching on Feb. 24th, 2009. They are looking for adding only 1000  members. On the 19th of Febrary, 2009, they are holding a free webinar to show you how to find great affiliate products to promote. I have seen their free shows and would recommend wholeheartedly that you go, watch, and learn. They are that informative.

One other thing, PPC Classroom offers you a chance to have two niche researched monthly for you. They even offer camtasia videos on these niches. It’s a great way to see how they do their research and evaluating programs. And there’s a paid forum too where you can go ask questions.
