Newsletter #2
This blog post is from my newsletter dated 27 September 2009
Hi,
Welcome to my 2nd newsletter – in this edition I am going to continue reviewing Commission Blueprint 2.0 and update you on my own product ‘Killer Sales Pages’ plus tell you about a couple of books that I have been recommended to me.
But first, a little of what has been happening in Andy’s World this week – well I have decided to buy an iPhone, I have resisted the urge for so long as I already own an iPod and so couldn’t see the benefit of an iPhone particulalrly as they are bigger than the Blackberry I currently own.
But, once you start to see the array of applications that are available you suddenly realise that these things are amazing and allow you to do so much more than receive email to your phone (ala Blackberry!)
I have decided that if I am to own an iPhone I want the best one available and so I am plumping for the 32GB 3GS model which retails (sim free) in the UK at £538.00 – a lot of money!
Once I have got my hands on the said model (there is a waiting list apparently) and lost 3 days playing with it, I will write a further review giving the pro’s pro’s and the odd con!

This week I needed to send some flowers and as it was last minute I picked up the Yellow Pages and made some calls – the majority of places that I called were unable to arrange (excuse the pun) delivery for the same day, which is what I required so I moved onto the next ad.
On closer inspection of the ads one in particular caught my eye, it was called flowersforlaura.com and the reason for my interest was because the ad stated that the florist supported a charity called PACT which stands for Parents Associated of Children with Tumours and Leukaemia.
Needless to say I called the florists and a lovely lady called Sarah offered to arrange a bouquet and deliver them for me that day – great service and a great charity donation!
Here are two websites you may be interested in visiting;

Commission Blueprint 2.0
As you know I decided to buy this product but not without some trepidation but after a couple of glowing references I was sold and so over the past couple of weeks I have been downloading the many videos and manuals that are part and parcel of this product.
My first impressions were of the excellent quality of the content and to be honest that still remains, the videos are very informative and kind of informal which makes them easier to understand and listen to. The pdf manuals are of the same quality too.
The most amazing aspects of the product though are the tools that you receive, Keyword Blueprint in particular is the best keyword tool I have come across and Offer Evaluator basically tells you whay keywords will make you money and what ones won’t – amazing tool particularly if you are into Google Adwords!
All in all I am very impressed but I am only on module 5 at the moment and there are 10 modules so just starting half way point I guess doesn’t quite qualify me as being totally well read but so far so good!
My aim is to have completed reading through all 10 modules by the time my next newsletter is out, then I have to start implementing what I have learnt – and that is a different story altogether!

Killer Sales Pages
As you know KSP is my own product and one that I am very proud of, I have started writing the sales page this week and although you would think that should be quite easy bearing in mind that is the topic of my book, I am finding it a little tough going!
You have heard the saying ‘practice what you preach’? Well that’s my problem, I am trying to ensure that everything I have written about is included in my own sales page – I’m getting paranoid!
I have just ordered my graphics too so things are moving along nicely albeit a little slower than I first planned – my launch date is still going to be in October though it may be slightly later in the month than I originally intended.

Useful Reading
As I have allayed to in the past, my dream is to be able to run a ‘full time’ profitable Internet \ Affiliate Marketing business from a warmer climate than that in the UK and so when I came across a book called
‘The 4-hour Work Week: Escape the 9-5, Live Anywhere and Join the New Rich’
I thought it was worth a read – I have ordered it from Amazon!
The second book that ‘took my fancy’ this week is one of Dan Kennedy’s and it is called;
No BS Time Management for Entrepreneurs
Now as time is something I don’t have a lot of at the moment I’m hoping it may help me prioritise and manage my time better – another addition to my Amazon basket!

Hiya Andy
Enjoyed your newsletter.
I am a member of Commission Blueprint too, but not the latest version, so I am very interested in your review and progress.
I purchased Market Samurai, as recommended in Comm Blue, as my keyword tool, but I’ve not used it in anger yet.
All The Best

Hi Mike,
I have to say it is a fantastic product, I am really enjoying it but it is taking up most of my life (well all my free time anyway!)
I do thoroughly recommend it!
Andy
Andy,
That was so funny what you said about trying to practice what you preach…with your sales page. That would probably make me paranoid too!
I need to check out Commission Blueprint. It’s not the first time I’ve heard good things about it.

Hi Andy, I can’t wait to see ‘Killer Sales Pages’ released on ClickBank. Hopefully any day now, I know how hard you have worked on it!
best Wishes, Ray
Hi Andy
I’m being addmitted to hospital again tomorrow, our blogs’ 1st birthday. I should (hopefully) only be gone for 2 weeks.
I just wanted to stop by today and wish your blog a very happy 1st birthday for tomorrow, and to wish you all the very best for the year ahead.
May you sail the sea of ambition and land on the shores of success.
Respect and Regards,
Barry
