Now THAT was a cool trip!
My first time over to the States and my first time speaking at an internet marketing seminar.
Thank you to all of those who made it - it was really great to see you in person and hopefully help you move your own web businesses forward.
I had a real blast speaking from the stage with Sterling Valentine and from the feedback from attendees it seems like those of you in the room did too!
I will be posting pictures here soon of the event but in the meantime I just wanted to thank all of you for making it such a special event and use my spot here to thank the organizers at Focus4TheFuture for putting on the event.
The Power Of Education
It wasn’t just the speaking I enjoyed though as I was able to see some of my own heroes in action including Mike Filsaime who helped me in a big way with the launch of AdSense Videos. It was Mike who set the way for me to follow and I tried to mimick some of the success he had with Butterfly Marketing in my own launch.
In fact, if I’m honest - it was all the stuff I learned from Mike’s Butterfly marketing (although I didn’t use his software) that really sent my launch of AdSense Videos onto another level so it was great to see him speaking live for the first time.
Thanks to The Valentine
I also want to publicly thank Sterling Valentine for being a great speaking partner and Joint Venture Partner on our new product and project - he’s great fun and although I felt before the event that I knew him like a brother it was cool to meet up in person..
So all in all it was a great time and I even managed to squeeze in a trip to eat lunch at the top of the Space Needle in Seattle as well as visit the Pike Fish Market (more on that next blog post!!)..
Speak soon,
Michael

I met you both in Seattle and I really think you both can do great things together.
You have many things that can be complementary and make you really powerful.
It has been a pleasure for me listening to both of you and I know I will read more about your next project together.

Hi Michael,
I’m in the UK also, I attended the World Internet Summit at Wembley and was equally impressed by Mike Filsaime. Quick question for you, you’ve obviously been very successful lately have you ever had any coaching or mentoring and would you recommend it?
Cheers Jan

Thanks guys!!
I’ve had informal coaching and mentoring and highly recommend it. Even if you can’t afford the personal stuff buying the latest products from the guys that have already been successful is the only smart way to be successful yourself.
I tried doing it on my own in ‘my own way’ and wasted years of my life failing miserably!
It was really only when I started learning from the masters that I started seeing success for myself.
Good luck!
Michael
