Daegan Smith has gathered folks who are interested in learning about marketing into his inner circle called “MAXIMUM LEVERAGE.”  Now first of all,  isn’t that a ‘cool’ name for a gathering of marketers. Daegan is a beautiful man who has made a lot of money online. He knows how the internet works and he knows how to make money online.  And because many people are interested in using the internet for their businesses they have come to Daegan for help. 

I got introduced to Maximum Leverage and Daegan, through his students.  He had a contest a few weeks ago and then another one just recently.  Both contests required his students to submit a video on what is a marketing breakthrough tip that has made a difference in your business.   The winners  received either lifetime memberships into   Maximum Leverage or a year membership. 

At this moment I am not an inner circle member because I am checking these guys out!  Due diligence is important in finding a match for ones learning. Well I have listened to all of the videos that have been submitted, including my own and I have learned so much, just from the contest entries.

Over 50 people felt inspired to share tips that were crucial to their businesses.  They were inspiring and absolutely informative to me.  I have learned so much that it makes me wonder, WHAT IS INSIDE THAT INNER CIRCLE??

Let me tell you just a few things that I have learned: a.) the importance of backlinks, b.) keywords (how to find great ones), c.) how to maximize your article writing (for example, if you write an article you should always publish it on your blog first and then about a week later on the article marketing sites like Ezine, d.) the importance of building a relationship with your list e.) how to submit your one article to many sites for maximum leverage.

I have been learning from a few of the master trainers online for the past four months with the desire to find a home where I can learn from a great teacher and their students, as well as where I may be able to offer my own wisdom.

What I like most about Daegan Smith is “yes he knows his content,”   in other words he knows how to market and get good results and EQUALLY IMPORTANTLY for me,  he is a person who knows how to inspire and uplift. He calls himself the “KING OF NEVER HAVING TO CALL LEADS”………and for me, he is the “KING OF THE LITTLE THINGS.” 

What are the little things??

Well Daegan takes time to comment on your videos and to comment on your facebook comments and to give you a thumbs up for this or that.  Now as a psychologist and teacher, I know that these are the key things that make a good teacher, OUTSTANDING.  Absolutely, one must know their content but equally important is to know how to inspire and uplift others.

We can all remember back to the teacher who did that little extra, to give us a beautiful comment on our paper or to smile at us or any of these gestures that seem small but they are HUGE. They can make the total difference between success or not.  As a teacher, I know this for sure.

This contest is an example of LEVERAGING THE WISDOM OF HIS STUDENTS.  It has been a privilege and honor to be witness to all of this even before I join Maximum Leverage.   Thank you Daegan and all people who entered the contests. To learn more about Maximum Leverage go to Facebook or ‘maximumleverage.com’

Now I could go on and on but what I would like to do is share two video links here so you can listen to his students yourself.  These two will inspire you to want more and you can view most of  the contest entries on Daegans facebook pages, Maximum Leverage or Daegan Smith. They are so worth watching if you want some great marketing tips. These are two of my favorites:

Now to just close by saying that I do not do anything anymore unless it ‘FEELS GOOD’ to  me because I understand that ‘FEELING GOOD’ is the key to an amazing life and all the things I am wanting.  As many of you know, the Law of Attraction is one of my favorite topics and this is one of the teachings that has changed me forever.

As Daegan would say “SEE YOU AT THE TOP“……….at the top of your game, at your happiest!!!

I have just finished taking   GEORGE BROWN’S   online course called  “TRAFFIC ULTIMATUM.”  His course was launched in late March 2010.

Firstly, George Brown is a young 19 year old man, who has made millions of dollars on the internet. He is an internet marketer extraordinaire. He has his own products, that he has created and he also focuses a lot on affiliate  marketing.

Traffic Ultimatum, is an outstanding resource to have for anyone who is wanting to do business on the internet.  The course costs $197 US  and is worth every penny. What George has done for people with this course is taught the basics in understanding how business is done online.

The course is comprised of 3 E Books, along with 20 videos that are interspersed throughout the course. So he uses the written word and video to make his points.

What I love about George Browns’ course is what a good writer he is. He manages to make somewhat difficult material easy to learn. His videos are so thoughtfully done to help explain everything and to show you how to do what he is saying.  He sticks closely to his promise to  “Not present any fluff, just the raw basics.”   What he means by this is, he spends all his time in the course giving the technical wisdom needed to do business online. This wisdom is given in plain and simple english for anyone to understand.

I have already implemented so many of his ideas because it is easy. I wish I would have had this course before I wrote over 70 Ezine articles because I would written them differently, with an eye to the careful use of “keywords.” Knowing about keywords is one of the most important things to know about how the internet works. The good news is, I can go back and edit my courses and do it more effectively this time, so that they will get more exposure, more viewers.

I would say that George is a “big picture” guy, with the ability to also carefully explain the details in the big picture. This is a very rare quality in a teacher.

Let me go over all the areas that George covers in this course: VIDEO 1: Spotting Trends, VIDEO 2: Offer Spying Video, VIDEO #3: Keyword Research, VIDEO #4: Market Analysis, VIDEO 5: SEO Essentials,  VIDEO #6: Article Marketing, VIDEO #7: Video Marketing, VIDEO 8:  Social Networking Marketing, VIDEO 9: Social Media Marketing, VIDEO #10: Conversational Marketing, VIDEO #11: Buzz Marketing,  VIDEO #12: Viral Marketing, VIDEO 13: Piggyback Marketing,  VIDEO 14: Google Adwords,  VIDEO 15: Google Content Network,  VIDEO 16: Facebook Social Ads, VIDEO 17: PPV Advertising, VIDEO 18: Outsourcing,  VIDEO 19: Email Buys, VIDEO 20: UTube Buying.

Each of these are described brilliantly, with many additional resources added.

One example of how it has already been helpful to me is: George Brown teaches you how to write an article, with careful attention to keywords (he tells you how to find the appropriate keywords), and then he shows you how to turn that article into a video and then how to submit that same article as a press release.  It is amazing to me how much leverage he shows you how to do with just one article. It is brilliant.

I was able to easily do this with the next article I wrote. And these 3 areas of marketing are all FREE. 

He does go into advertising that is free and advertising that is paid in detail.

The other thing I like about George Brown as a teacher is that he is an inovator, meaning he is finding new ways to advertise on the internet all of the time. Ways that have never been done before.

He has a calm and easy manner about him. He gives you the impression that this is learnable and fun. One realizes that there is a science to working on the internet and you need to learn the rules of the game, so to speak.

I feel so much more informed having taken this course and I feel very much appreciation for GEORGE BROWNS’ talents as a teacher. One sign of  a true teacher is a person who empowers and inspires another to be the creators that they are and George Brown is such a teacher.  Thank you George!!

Brandon Bays is the author of several books stemming from a form of healing or therapy that she discovered and then named ‘Journey Work.”  This work was born out of her fierce desire to be well, after a diagnosis of a large cancerous tumor in her abdomen. She was given 2 months to live by her doctors.

She believed so strongly that this tumor was going to teach her how to be well, that she asked for 6 weeks time to discover what that was. In that 6 weeks time, she uncovered a method of healing that is transforming lives in many countries and many more to come.

Journey work is basically a method of healing that helps people get back into realignment with their true “Source,”  with the knowing that all illness/all dis-ease means one is out of alignment with “Source Energy.”

 It is a beautiful set of tools that help one clean up vibrational energy from one’s past or present or what we are projecting out into the future, in a safe and easy way.

This method teaches one to access “Source Energy,” and to feel this energy and to know that this is who we truly are……this is what we are meant to sit in each and every day…….this feeling of all “well-being.”

Brandon is married to Kevin Billett, who has been teaching this work with her for many years now. Together they make a beautiful couple, both expanding this work on a regular basis. They both exude the radiant energy of love and teach from this place, helping people release these old constricted vibrations (in the form of emotions) and transforming oneself and others.

One can be assured that any accredited Journey practitioner has the tools to be in alignment with “Source Energy” because all of the training to become a Journey practitioner is about releasing resistance and getting oneself more and more into, this that we are, “Source Energy.”  The wellness tools that one learns in this training are so freeing, always being fine-tuned and honed to make it easier and more effortless to drop into Source and release.

It is my belief that in combination with the teachings of the Law of Attraction, as taught by Jerry and Esther Hicks, Journey work can heal the most seemingly impossible illnesses or situations. With these tools and this knowledge all healing is possible.

In the great books section of this blog is a picture of two of their books, The Journey and The Journey for Kids. These are must reads for anyone who wants well-being.

Thank you Kevin and Brandon, your work has evolved into such empowerment for so many of us.

Julia Roberts, the beautiful and brilliantly talented actress, is an example of someone in the field of films, who lives in “Source Energy.”

 When I watch Julia act in anything really, I get this knowing that she is doing exactly what she is meant to be doing. She is such an accomplished actress and I do not think it is because she has had a lot of training. I think it is because she is so in tune with ‘Source Energy’  flooding through her, that it shows in all that she does.

In the movie, Pretty Woman,  she was brilliant, portraying a woman who moved from not living in joy, into a woman who discovered her joy and then was determined to stay there. And of course, in her expectation of getting what she wanted, she gets the man of her dreams.

This is actually how it works in real life too. It is called the “Law of Attraction” and basically this law states that what you think about and feel about you bring about.

 In another movie “Erin Brockovich,”  Julia again plays a woman who has a fierce wanting to have her circumstances of poverty changed. Throughout the movie she works step by step and day by day to transform herself…….being called by “Source” every inch of the way…….and it is in her listening that she is guided into her own empowerment as a powerful model of influencing change……being guided on how to gather people and how to talk to people and how to ask the right questions and on and on.

I think Hollywood is indeed fortunate to have her among them. She is a beacon of light and an influencer of huge magnitude. Thank you Julia for all that you do!

Keith Urban is a singer who abides in “Source Energy.” When I listen to his work, I know that this man is doing what he is meant to do, to teach us all how to be happy by doing what we love.

 In an interview that I watched on television, he said “even if I did not get paid for singing, I would do it because it makes me happy.” What a wonderful statement of “follow your bliss.”

 When you watch Keith, notice the pure joy in his face and body at what he is singing. He radiates, as anyone in “Source Energy” does. He is fully alive and singing songs that please him.

 That is the key to happiness in a nutshell. Do what makes you feel fully alive !!

I feel blessed to have had the privilege of hearing his music…..so uplifting and joyous.

Thank you Keith.

Esther and Jerry Hicks are the most profound teachers of  “The Law of Attraction” on the planet today.  They speak the ideas of Abraham, a cluster of non-physical beings who speak through Esther. Now, when I first started learning their work, I had this sense of relief, that overwhelmed me. I was flooded with feelings of relief and began to cry with joy.

 It was like, WOW, they are telling me basically………. it is OK to ask for what you want and to expect it to arrive…….and If it feels good, It is good  for us….and…. If it feels bad, It is bad for us………and so only do those things that make you FEEL GOOD……….and there main message is to “Get Happy and Stay There” and all good things will come flooding your way. This is what  “The Law of Attraction” is all about. Reminding us that good is good and bad is bad and that we were born to be happy.

 Now I am a trained Doctorate level psychologist and not once in my training did I hear this message. After 50 or more courses, not once did this message come forth. And I am a trained teacher and not once in this formal training did anyone say “your main job as a teacher is to teach kids to be happy and do what pleases them.”

And so in reading Jerry and Esther’s books “The Law of Attraction” and “Ask And It Will Be Given”  and listening to several audios and also watching the DVDs entitled “The Law of Attraction in Action” and many others……..I have learned something so profound, I will be forever changed.

The humor and ease with which they teach is uplifting, it relaxes you and brings you forward into your own fullness. Their message calls you forth to be who you are meant to be, and they give you the “how” to do this.

 It is brilliant really…….they have developed and articulated what they call an “emotional guidance system”…….a way to always know if one is in “Source Energy” ……… a term used for being in the feelings of love or appreciation or joy.

 These two amazing souls have been responsible for the expansion of the universe by listening to what called them forth.

 If one only read their books and listened to their teachings and practiced them, that is all that would be needed for complete happiness.

I am in a complete state of gratitude for their work and their beings …….. thank you, thank you, thank you!!
