World Internet Summit UK 2007 DVD review

Since this seminar, I have discovered The World Internet Summit. The organisers of this are Brett McFall and Tom Hua.

They organise seminars with speakers (from around the world) making a lot of money on the internet. We have all heard about people making a lot of money on the internet. Well, these guys all assemble together to show how we can do what they are doing. They run about 4 of these events a year I think.

One of the most powerful things they talk about is our own mindset about making a lot of money. The payoff is a completely different lifestyle and doing what you want to do, not working forever on a 9 to 5 job.

During the last few days I have been watching the DVDs of the World Internet Summit in the UK in November 2007. Again, this information is mindblowing! Shaune Clarke shows how to get a website up and running, the hits, advertising and the start of an amazing business. He does this onstage and shows all of the steps that need to be taken to get to that point. Very powerful!!

I now have the resale rights to sell the DVDs. There are 17 and the price is $997 for the set. Really, I believe that is amazing value. This event costs $997 to attend.

I don't know about you, but I can't afford the airfares, accommodation and food expenses that go along with a 4 day event! So for the same price of the ticket, you can purchase this set of DVDs.

Now, I know things change quickly on the internet but I truly believe that most of the content is still current. (I haven't seen all of the DVDs yet, so I cannot make a claim that ALL of it is still current.)

The other thing I wondered was how many people actually attend these events. Well, would you believe about 500? Then add in the statistic that from these 500, only 1% will actually do anything with the knowledge they have.

So, are you a doer? an action person? This is for you!! The best $997 you have ever spent. If you implement even one of these ideas, you can make way more than the cost of these DVDs.

Believe me, a whole new world will be open to you!!

Tomorrow...I will let you know how to buy these amazing DVDs. (I am not sure but will find out before tomorrow!!)

Mindblowing information

I know I am jumping ahead now but this is related to finding a product!!

I also wish I had had this information in February but I probably wouldn't have seen it as the opportunity it was!

I had started researching starting a business in February 2007.

Sometimes, opportunities just come along!!

In July 2008, I heard from a friend in Brisbane about an internet marketing secrets seminar. My website was up and running but the business was going slow. I decided to attend to help with getting traffic to my site!!

I found the information I got over the 2 days was mind blowing!! Definitely not what I was expecting!! These guys talked about $20 million as if it was $20!!! These guys were making megabucks!! It was so unbelievable that I couldn't help but laugh!!

The presenters included Brett McFall, Tom Hua, Armand Morin, Nikhil Parekh, Matt & Amanda Clarkson, Declan Barnett, Ari Galper and Andrew & Daryl Grant.

There were several ways to make money on the internet! All possible for ordinary people like you and me!!

The reason I have jumped ahead to this information is because I wish I had known about it before I started my underwear business.

Tomorrow....I will tell you more about this amazing information.

Finding a product

Many years ago, with time to spare (while my daughter was at a week long music workshop), I cruised the shops of Brisbane. Would you believe Myer were having an underwear sale? Great sale and I needed some new underwear!

I couldn't see any cotton underwear sets, so I asked the sales girl. I could not believe that there were only 2 pants of hipster knickers available. No bras to match!!

But the Bendon sets and Twisted Sista sets looked great. I bought 2 sets - a red floral and a blue floral! Gorgeous!

I think I wore them about 3 times each and then didn't wear the briefs again. I did wear the bras, though!! Very disappointing!

I continued to look for several years, but never did find lovely cotton sets.

When I made the decision to start a business selling cotton underwear sets, I spent hours looking for shops with cotton underwear! No luck!

There were no cotton underwear sets anywhere online or in shops.

So, the next problem became.... where would I find a product to sell?

Making the decision

I have always wanted to start my own business - probably since my 20s. Then along come study, children, divorce, being a single parent and the thought disappears from our minds. Getting through the days seems to take priority. Then the children grow up and leave home!

Our priorities change. So do our responsibilities! What to do now?

I felt burnt out after teaching for 20 years. I felt I was doing the same things each year - fixing the students' problems. This can be very draining. I loved doing this - helping the underachievers. I loved allowing them to see their potential whether it was academic or in other areas. But it was losing its attraction! I needed a break.

My priorities had changed. So did my responsibilities! What to do now?

At the beginning of last year, I wrote a list of ALL of the things that interested me. I quite surprised myself. The list was quite long. I really had lots of choices!!

Often I get frustrated about because I want something and it is not available on the market!!

This led me to my starting my current business - selling cotton underwear sets online.

This is an amazing journey! I am not there yet! I am still learning!

The most amazing things have happened! Everyone is so supportive! I have been given advice and help from lots of different places.

Join me on my journey! I hope you may learn from this and at the same time I am hoping to learn from you as well!!
