Internet Marketing Workshop - Profit in 90 days or Less!

I have been busy lately preparing for Patric Chan's 2-day workshop in Penang on 26 Nov. 2005.
He shared with us the 5-step System which he used to get started on the internet and to profit from it within the next 90 days or less!

After attending the workshop, here are my reviews which I have also given him.

He is the one and only Malaysian that I feel qualifies to teach internet marketing as he offers easy step-by-step guide to starting and building our own little internet marketing business. His workbook is 'simple', easy to follow and he made us write our own notes! I made quite a number of notes, including his 'secrets' which I am unable to share online. In the workshop, he gave us so much attention that he made sure each and everyone of us understood the concepts he shared, before moving on to the next topic. He has patience (with this 'slow' newbie group). I was glad I watched the DVD videos and CD-ROM before attending the workshop, as it sure helps me in absorbing all the information.

Now I feel more confident to take the next step, i.e. turn it into Action and make it work, despite future challenges along the way but I will not give up! Its a golden opprtunity to make money online, right from my own house, with my laptop/computer sitting at home or from anywhere else in the world, for that matter. In the next few days, I think I will allocate more time to taking the 1st step is to conduct 'reseach' into 'niche' marketing, as advised by www.patricchan.com

Today, I have also received the package of "Think and Grow Rich" book by Napoleon Hill, brought to us by Ted Ciuba, an Internet Marketing consultant in the US. He also sent a packet of Jelly Beans which my son totally enjoys munching. I was surprised that we can actually download a Free copy of the above book from www.eastwestthinkandgrowrich.com

Oh! Before I forget, I will also be attending another bombastic 1-day workshop at end of this week. Its going to be a 'copywriting' workshop entitled "Double Results Internet Copywriting Workshop" by Jo-Han Mok, a Singaporean.

Jo-Han Mok is renowned for creating effective sales letter copy that brings in sales in 1 day! I am not going to miss this no matter what. Guess what? He was an apprentice of Dr Joe Vitale. Wow! And its going to be held in Penang again. This time, my family will get to go with me to this island to enjoy themselves over this weekend.

So ta ta! See you in the next update!

Why the Name "Acres of Diamond"

Since setting up this blog and sent to some friends, the comment I received was "what is the meaning of Acres of Diamond" and what are you trying to say?

Sorry readers! I did not do a good job in explaining.

What I meant by "Acres of Diamond" for me is - there are plenty of money-making opportunities out there in this world and all we have to do, is to go out there and look for it.

I used to work in a 9-to-5 JOB, got up early in the morning, drove to work, got stuck in the traffic jam, returned from work, rest, eat, sleep and this daily routine was repeated over a number of years. Then I decided 2 years ago to stop working and went out to look for money-making options, by attending previews to options trading, property, selling online etc.

It was not until I stumbled upon a stranger at 1 of these previews that told me to take Risk! And so I did. I went on to enrol into 1 of Jay Abraham's Marketing program (Aug '05) and came out with new hopes that I can use his strategies in my current online business.

Now, this lead to another seminar which I attended. The World Internet Summit (Oct '05)where 12 experienced internet speakers shares their system and success stories that had made them to what they are today.

Since then, I have been doing daily research and reading up on internet marketing, viral marketing, direct response marketing, affiliate marketing, you name it all. From all these effort, I know the day will come for me to put all that I have learned of marketing on the internet to Action and make at least a dollar (US$1.00) online.
