Thanks

Welcome to JVNP, Cy ... I'm going to make it a point to try to really jack up the cutting edge JV Marketing content ... hope a few of my esteemed colleagues will lend a hand in doing that.

Charles ... thanks so much for the props, but your high level of quality participation has helped us grow ... kudos to you, my friend.

Best,

Mike

Hey All,

My name is Richard Monssen.

I have been online altogether now for about 2 years, I have learnt a lot in that time, opened a few websites with varying success but am still really yet to make something substantial from this whole IM thing.

Checked out this site about a hear and a half ago, which was when I first launched what would be one of my most successful website, only at that time it was hard to login into and seemed to be more trouble than it was worth, but now I have come back to find it has blossomed into quite an effective and informative site.

Nice one Mike!

Kind Regards

Richard Monssen

Welcome, Wouter ... Richard.

Yeah, we've come a long way ... but the aesthetic and technical improvements are secondary to partner participation ... it's getting better everyday.

Thanks,

Mike

Hello everyone,

I'm Michael S. Copeland, the Vision Knight. I help people take their ideas and formulate their vision. Ideas are great but if you don't have that vision, that beacon, then you don't have a direction to go. I like to help people start that roadmap and prioritize all of the ideas based on the needs of the person and their business. Without a roadmap you don't really know where you're going or how to get there. I'm in the process of developing a program to help you all in this arena. You'll see my notice informing you all of a JV opportunity.

I also am big into the Law of Attraction and have a free community site, http://TheSecretGathering.com, to help people grow. I am looking for various JV and affiliates opportunities in this arena currently.

Another thing I do, and it's not really advertised anywhere, is I do critiques. I have worked at BIG dot.com's and have a number of domains myself. I am able to critique a website from the look and feel, and functionality aspects of the user. I also critique products, business plans, and proposals. My experience allows me to see and do these quickly. Again, there's no real candy coating. I'm blunt and straight forward. Don't ask me to critique something and then take what I say personally.

I look forward to working with some of you.

Sincerely,
Michael S. Copeland

Thanks for joining us, Michael.

Your opinions are welcomed ... blunt is fine.

Best,

Mike

Hi,

I'm Shem Cruz, and I'm 21 years old. I'm still in college, so doing both a lot of things since I have other responsibilities is very hard, but I hope to meet more people who help each other and share each other's knowledge. I must say this community is helpful since it opens its arms to newbies like us who have not partners, no reputation nor name in the world of internet marketing.

I'm in the process of opening a free membership site, so I hope to recruit partners here.

Hi and hello !

[Mike Merz]

Welcome to JVNP, Shem.

Though I do recommend working on getting your Online Business into the black before delving too deeply into Joint Ventures, I'm sure you'll find plenty of helpful information in regards to both in the archives, current posts, and via interaction with more experienced JV Notify Pro partners.

All the best,

Mike

Hi everyone,

....I managed to find the right forum to introduce myself....

I have been doing IM for 2.5 years. I started off selling info-products to niche markets using the Underachiever method (& Ultra Underachievers - mentored by Ed Dale and Frank Kern). This worked!!! But it was only in small tiny niches so even though there were profits, the profits were small.

Then Web 2.0 happened - and I have Ed Dale to thank for his 3rd Thirty Day Challenge - this really opened the door to getting free traffic from all kinds of Social Networking sites.

To cut a long story short (Goodbye Adsense. Goodbye Co-Reg) , I have now moved on to my own IM products.

The ONE thing I have learned from other IM friends and partners is this:

The best way to promote your product is via Joint Ventures. That's when I was recommended to your great community.

Best,
Chris
