“Ordinary People Making Extraordinary Incomes - Could This Be You?” |

You may recall that in our Special Quarterly Edition of the newsletter earlier this month, we announced our Success Story Draw. All of our subscribers were invited to send us their success stories to be entered in a draw for their choice of one of the following three fabulous prizes:
Well, to be honest, we were a little shocked by the sheer volume of entries we received. Literally hundreds of you sat down and poured your hearts out, e-mailing us stories of your Internet successes… It was pretty overwhelming. I spent hours reading about people from Germany… Singapore… England… Canada… the United States… Australia… People from all over the world sent me stories about how they dreamed of something better for themselves and their families -- financial freedom and security -- and started their own Internet businesses… often from practically nothing. Honestly, I could spend hours and hours telling you about the stories I’ve read over the past few weeks… but I think it’s important that you become acquainted with some of these people yourself. I think you’ll learn something… and maybe you’ll find the inspiration you need to make a life-changing decision today. Here are the success stories of the 10 people who were randomly chosen in our draw… SUCCESS STORY #1 “First, I should point out I'm a lazy Internet Marketer. I only made it to tip three in the Internet Marketing Course. Creating killer copy. I redid my copy and that doubled sales. I did that 15 months ago. My sales were $1000 per month and for the last 15 months they've been $2000. That extra $15,000 helped a lot. I keep thinking I'll move on to another tip to see if I can do it again.” Margaret Agard
“Looking back, the mistakes that we were making with our site seem so obvious now that our site is set-up differently after studying the newsletters and the course that showed us what we were doing wrong. Here is a sample of what we were doing wrong with our site that we thought we were doing right:
We had many other boo boos that we had to apply the course to as well, but I don't want to make this into a novel. When we first started using Corey's newsletters and eventually his course, our client base was practically non-existent. After discovering many things that his course pointed out that we had overlooked, we made a few changes and our business began to pick up. Now, every time we do some advertising, we use some of the tips he provides in the course and we get about 270% more responses than we used to! Once we started working the bugs out of our website's text and ads, the results were almost immediate. The more we use from his course the more results we get! We just keep learning from mistakes and test new things. I recommend Corey's course to anyone who has a website, no matter what their site is about or how much money they currently make. The course is full of information that can help anyone, even if you don't have a site or don't know what to sell. It's all there, and best of all, it can be understood. It is written in plain understandable English and everything he says makes alot of sense, no matter how difficult the subject is. Other so-called "Internet Marketers" that I have tried to learn from usually don't have a clue as to what they are talking about. They know people who are trying to learn how to market successfully are a great target market for themselves! I have found some that provide decent information, but none to the extent that Corey's website and course does. His Free Newsletter is more beneficial than what many others try to charge hundreds for! Thank you for offering all of the valuable information that you do, it really makes a difference in profits for all of us out here in the virtual world.” Matthew Webster
“I bought the Insider Secrets training course, and tried out the `can you comment on my new website’ strategy. I did not expect many replies, being English and working in possibly a less responsive marketplace, but to my amazement, over 50% of my clients either emailed me straight back or telephoned me to say how flattered they were that I had asked them for their input, praised the site, and then proceeded to give me more business. One of them even uses my home page as his screensaver!! Your course was worth every penny.” Jaqui Bell
“My name is Ryan Seeds. I was first introduced to The Internet Marketing Center about 3 years ago. I bought the guide and it sparked in me a passion for internet marketing. Since then I've been involved in 3 internet businesses. One of them is making me about $20,000 a year - that's almost as much as I make at my full time job! My most recent involvement has been with www.gomovietrailers.com - a high-quality movie trailers and media website. Through the use of your marketing guide and WebPosition Gold (which you recommended) we have been able to triple our traffic every few months! I expect this will become another profitable venture!” Ryan Seeds
“I am from Singapore. I wanted to start a home business in 1999, but have no idea how to get started. Still having the "old economy" mindset, I wrote a business plan that needed almost S$30,000 [$16,500 US] for start-up cost. I also calculated that my monthly operating cost & marketing cost to be around S$5,000 to S$10,000 [$2,800 to $5,500 US]. At that time, I only have S$5,000 [$2,800] in my account. How can I ever be able to start my business? Thank God I found Corey's "The Insider Secrets to Marketing your Business on the Internet". Initially, I was not willing to pay nearly $200 for the course because I am not sure whether this course will help me at all. My husband encouraged me to give it a try. Boy, am I glad I took his advice. After reading the course, I re-wrote my whole business plan and slash my start-up cost to less than S$5,000 [$2,800 US]. I have decided to use most of the software he recommended and therefore slash another 80% off my monthly operating & marketing cost. Even before starting my business, I have already taken back all my investment in the course! I wanted to fully automate my business since day one. Before I launched my site, I have already set up mailloop. Now, I have launched my site for 2 weeks. Mailloop had helped me captured my new members' data, send a welcome letter to them automatically without me lifting a finger. I have a few free reports for my visitors. Even without them signing as member, I have their particulars captured by Mailloop when they request for the reports. I am planning to start my newsletter soon, of course, I will be using Mailloop again! I highly recommend both the course, mailloop & the other software recommended by Corey in the course. If you are just starting out, don't waste your time shopping around for courses & software that do not work. The course contains everything you needed to succeed. Corey, you are truly my business mentor!” Kezia Leong
“About six years ago a friend of mine introduced me to the Internet. At first I was skeptical. It amazed me but I was skeptical. This is great for techno-geeks but I’m not sure about the general public. My friend, Michael Markey (owner of http://bumpercovers.com) challenged me to learn html. So I took his challenge and iNet iMage Developers was born. Michael went to businesses and sold them websites, I designed them. We tried this for a while but there just wasn’t enough interest in the Internet at that time for us to make a living. Michael went on to pursue a different career. I was determined that the Internet was going to make me a fortune or at least a living. I pushed and struggled for years barely getting by. When I got to the point of absolute frustration and envisioned the end of iNet iMage Developers, I discovered the TRUTH about Internet success. Without the proper marketing skills, my dream and I were doomed. I had put together a great business model, I had invested every penny of money that I could scrap up, I new that my products (hosting and website design) were absolute necessities on the Internet. My fate rested with digging in and learning to market my skills. I began researching every spec of marketing material I could find. I began applying what I was learning and to my surprise, the waters began to stir. Traffic to my site began to increase slowly until I reached a plateau. Much to my happiness I discovered The Internet Marketing Center. I found not only the meat but also the potatoes. I chewed this site up. At first I couldn’t afford the books and courses but I was amazed at the amount of information that I was getting from the sites newsletter. I read and re-read every issue that came. They were loaded with tasty tidbits of useful information that, when I applied them, began to catapult my sales. I was so impressed (and a little bit better off financially) that I bought ALL of the books and courses. What a wealth of USEFUL marketing knowledge. No BS just good stuff! I am happy to share with you that now iNet iMage Developers is a big fish in an ever-growing pond. We have moved Globally and our sales in the last year alone have increased by over 800%. (Jan 2000 to Jan 2001 sales increased 817% from Jan 1999 to Jan 2000). I must say that I owe the success of my business to my discovery of The Internet Marketing Center and my willingness to IMPLEMENT what I was learning. I am so very happy with the expert tutelage of the Internet Marketing Center that I recommend it to anyone who truly wants to succeed. Please, feel free to share this Success Story with your readers.” Robert Keating
“We started our business in 1996. Before we started marketing our website, we didn’t get a single order because no one knew we existed. In 1998, we purchased Mailloop from the Internet Marketing Center. As soon as we started marketing our website, which included using Mailloop, our sales increased monthly. We’ve been using Mailloop successfully for 3 years now. Some businesses struggle to make a profit within the first four-five years. After we started using Mailloop, our business made its first profit within a year. Within 3 years, our business profit increased by 242%. We've saved hours and hours each week because of Mailloop and time is priceless to me, especially since I work out of my home with a five year old in tow! Mailloop paid for itself within the first month of using it, there is no doubt in our mind about that. We've also used the newsletter capability to keep in touch with current customers and prospects on our mailing list - informing about new products, shows, special offers and so forth. This has been instrumental in bringing customers back for second and third orders. The more times a customer visits our site, the more likely we are to get an order! Just this one feature has been so valuable to us! For example I test marketed sending out a Mailloop mailing to previous customers offering them a 10% discount on their next order. From 10 emailings we received 6 orders. Without Mailloop, the whole procedure would have taken 10 times as long. We still haven't taken advantage of all the features – including the scheduling - auto-pilot capabilities which I know would save us even more time and get us more organized. Without a doubt, our experience getting our website business going and working with Mailloop has been very positive. Good luck with your endeavors and don’t give up!” Debbie Sheffield
“We bought the Internet Marketing course last year and this is what got us started. I have been looking for the right profession for me for a long time. In the meantime I have tried out Natural Therapies, Real Estate, remedial massage and much more. I always felt it wasn't for me. I have always been told that I should have a job in which I can inspire people and I believe I finally found it. As I was reading through the manuals, which are very professionally done, I may add, I was jotting down ideas as they came to me. One day, I was talking to my partner about ideas and we finally merged our ideas and dreams and came up with Rainbow Inspiration. We got started and have now written a 12 week inspiration course. I have used a number of the tips mentioned in the course and are still getting involved in more and more activities as a result of this. We also bought Mailloop and Site Promoter and both of them have been a great help to our business. In summary, the course gave me the incentive to get started. We might otherwise never have gotten off the ground. Mailloop has helped us automate a big part of the business, which might otherwise tie up a big part of my day. Site Promoter helped me launch our web site onto several search engines without working night and day for a week. When we can afford to, we are certainly looking at getting more of the software packages mentioned in the course to help us promote and maintain our business on the net. We only just launched our web site a month ago, so we are not millionaires yet. However, I still believe that if I had not bought and read the course I might still be looking for my dream. Thank you Corey and keep up the good inspiring work.” Vicky Post
“We are a small, new company manufacturing and marketing our own products. We have had a huge learning curve over the past few months, but believe that we have made a lot of headway and my knowledge on building a website was next to none. However, your Marketing Tips newsletters have intrigued me over and over again and helped me to make decisions more effectively. I have learned how to advertise our product on related websites, get the much needed information as to where our visitors are coming from to our site and I also wrote product information on one our products using your many tips and your example of writing techniques. Keep sending these newsletters! I print each one I receive, read it and file it in a binder for reference. I strongly recommend your marketing tips to anyone who wants to build an effective and efficient website and have fun learning while building it.” Connie Dix
“I started my web site a year ago to resell a portfolio of domain names. It was doing nothing so I implemented a few of the tricks revealed in the IMC Marketing Tips course - and provided free information. The visitors loved it but I wasn't selling anything. I purchased Mailloop and used it to send an email sales letter to a large list of potential domain name buyers from a directory. Within 24 hours, I sold a name for well over £1000 that paid for my domain portfolio AND Mailloop AND my IMC course. Now, I own eBookPro and have written an eBook on search engine placement explaining how I got to #1 in many search engines. It's selling - only small amounts at present, but just ONE week ago, this was just an idea! I have several more planned and in production. Once I have enough eBook titles, I shall probably get AssocTrac too. I am a UK skeptic. I don't often buy into Internet hype, but IMC has changed my view.” David Carter
