Business Building Web Log -- The first day.

7:00 – 7:15 Am
I read all my email after chucking out all the spam.

I made a new box for stuff related to this blog.

I smiled as I read my mentor, Daegan’s , morning email. He has not just told me,
but shown me, how effective it is to be consistent with emails to your list.
I am notorious for being a lousy letter writer, but emails are seldom letters, so I intend to escape through that semantic hole and build mutually beneficial relationships the way he does.

7:20 Somebody in my quiet neighborhood wants a bunch of variances to chop up small property into micro lots and build on it. I’m writing to the city to do something about that.

8:00 I am rapidly emerging from an information overload. Over the past 6 months, I have been taking a look at the growing heap of information I’ve collected and dabbled with about internet and network marketing. Yesterday, I tried to summarize it in a single sort of outline … you know,some sort of title for each e-book, traffic program, audio book….. That I’ve taken at least a cursory look at.

Overwhelming, but not nearly so formidable when organized into a loose outline. I am using a word processor that allows hyperlinks, so now I have a handy way to jump to documents and websites. As I have been doing this, I am filling in the outline with details.

My goal is to thin down the candidates for useful action, and to make a tentative to-do list, putting tasks in chronological order. I have a tendency to over plan and remind myself of that as I do this. I’m asking myself if I’m overplanning by doing this activity.

I’m spending the next hour or so on this. I’ll re-ask the above question when I am done.
The "outline", minus some details looks like this now. It looks more likea to-do list than an outline. Item’s in [parentheses] replace actual entries for the sake of privacy.

My Mentor’s affiliate program
Tracking on free CD affiliate ( how do I do this? )
This program pays commissions on all of the products found at http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?af=777762.

The first offer is for the "True MLM Wealth" free CD and commission is $20 per free CD request. Then as I will follow up with your leads via email and they purchase any other product from the same vendor, will receive commissions in the following dollar amounts per product:
Email MLM Formula $200,
Email MLM Formula One Time Offer $100,
Email MLM Swipe File $150,
Email MLM Swipe File OTO $75,
Advanced Profit Loop System $75,
Copywriting Seminar In A Box $150, MLM Big Money $15,
Magnetic Marketing $150,
MLM Mastery Course $75 after 30 day free trial,
Power Prospecting Secrets $60,
Squeeze Page Pro $50,
You Can Make A Living Online $150
Private Wealth Consult $50.

So I see there is huge profit potential over the long term to earn a lot off passive income with this program. All I have to do is drive traffic through my affiliate link and collect my commission. "The King Of Never Calling A Single Lead" will do all the rest!I will promote this link: http://www.1shoppingcart.com/SYS/?m=81142&c=l

8:55 AM
I thinned that out a bit. I realized, while reviewing this, that
You have to be a bit careful when posting personal notesto a blog that you respect the privacy and the copyrightsof people when you do this.
That there are abundant opportunities in a blog about mymarketing efforts, to share links to affiliate programs that are already part of the note! You will find a few in what I just posted. You might even click on some!
There are opportunities to share even more non-affiliate links to useful tools with blog readers

9:00 Am in need of some Java.

9:20 OK. We Seattle area folks need a coffee fix to keep going.
As I was sipping mine, it occurred to me that this blog is not monetized.No Adsense. No nothing…. Monetizing blogs is a piece of the formulafor funding the advertising to promote an MLM business.

How many times have I heard that? I do it on my Imagine Hawaii website, and now that I think about it, it’s paying for a pretty good chunk of ads every week.
