This module Alex names ‘Traffic Tornados’

This module is more of a screen-capture presentation, that presenting PowerPoint slides.

Recap: Before getting in the this module proper, Alex devoted a good while to go over what he has been teaching and to give us all a boost especially if we are not progressing as fast as we would all like and therefore Alex gives us encouragement.

I will relay Alex’s experience of learning to play poker and how it parallels with internet marketing. Alex is not a gambler after watching the game and not understanding it, one day Alex joined his friends in a game. He soon learnt the rules of how to play and now play regularly for fun. Alex says that poker taught him so many lessons about his life and internet marketing.

The game can change so quickly; everything can be against you, the chips are down and the cards are not looking good and you don’t know what is on the table and what cards have been dealt. Then, the flop turns out and suddenly you have been dealt the winning hand; the cards are so good you cannot lose; you have 100% chance of winning, so how do you play now?  The same happened for Alex in poker as it did in the internet marketing niche.

Alex learnt as he applied and he applied as he learnt. The advantage of internet marketing is that you can create your own cards. Internet marketing is easier than poker; you have the advantage to deal your own cards. When Alex wrote his own e-book he dealt his own cards. With poker as a Newbie you have to be lucky, but with internet marketing (which we are learning), we learn to control the game. Remember, “The odds are always on your side”

We make money as we grow; we need to take time to plan. Once you understand it you, you have to implement it; you cannot afford to “slack”.

The focus should always be on list-building.  Why Blog? People will get to know you instantly. People link to you. Your blog will get indexed by Google.

 

So, Alex then gets in to his presentation.
