Attending NAMS

Hard to believe it's been almost two weeks since I attended the NAMS (Niche Affiliate Marketing System) workshop in Atlanta. I hadn't intended to go, since affiliate marketing isn't really my thing. Then I found out it was going to be a hands-on workshop involving a number of things to do with Internet Marketing. So at the last minute, I hopped on a bus and rode for 24 hours to get there. I know, a flight would have been so much better, but last minute was too expensive. I did fly home though.

Anyway, Friday started slowly as we all got used to the routine and to one another. By Saturday morning I felt that it was worth the long bus trip just for what I'd done up to that point. The workshops and the networking were top notch. One of my favorite sessions was the group panel that created an info product on the spot.

About 20 of us from Lynn Terry's Elite forum attended and spent many enjoyable hours on the patio together each evening. Lynn even had a special Elites only reception for us one night. And other NAMS attendees were sure wishing they could attend. We wined (or coffeed) and dined (on fruit platters and desserts) and generally enjoyed being together.

Lynn has opened membership to the Elites for a limited time if you're interested. We're like a big supportive family helping one another to achieve success online. Along with a weekly private webinar, we post our week's action steps to keep us accountable. The forum itself is a place to brainstorm and gain helpful input without fear that your ideas will be taken. Membership in Lynn Terry's Elite Forum is one of the best online decisions I've ever made.

Opt-in Forms

I spent today creating opt-in forms for each of my blogs. Mind you, other than this one on blogger, which is so easy to install, I have no idea what to do next. My other blogs are in Wordpress and have to be copied into the HTML code. For a non-techie like me, that is a big deal. Update: With the newer versions of Wordpress and the use of widgets with most themes, adding an opt-in form is now as easy as on a Blogger blog. I went to Aweber and created my form, copied the code that's produced and pasted it into my HTML widget. And I even sound like a techie, don't I? Until next time, Carol

Youtube Videos - Are You Using Them?

Creating more Youtube videos is on my to-do list for this spring. But I think I need to take a lesson from my granddaughter's future husband and learn to use humor much more than I do. Here is a recent video he created to give you an idea of what I mean. Don't miss the surprise ending. Until next time, Carol

Jet Lag and NAMS 4

Okay, it wasn't a jet, but I did take a 747 to NAMS. And yes, I've been back for a week now. But it takes me a while to recover so you won't get all the juicy details for a bit longer yet. All I can say is I took loads of notes, hung out with some amazing people, and wish they didn't live so far away. I learned a lot and really enjoyed the sessions with Bob 'The Teacher' Jenkins, Karon Thackston, and Kathleen Gage. Of course all of the presenters were great, but those three I got the most from. And I had a 15 minute consultation with Mark Hendricks as well. The last NAMS I didn't think I had anything to discuss with him, but this time I forced myself to sign up. I was super nervous, but he was very easy to talk to, and he actually liked my idea for a membership site. I'll talk more about that another time. Once I get my notes organized, I'll give you my top ten takeaway points. Now the challenge is to do them, not stay in learning mode. So
