I Stuffed Up…
It’s true,
I stuffed up.
For the longest time, I’ve put a huge emphasis on what I think is the absolute fundamental of creating, selling and prospering in your market place.
I call it — the “Magnificent Symphony of Four Parts”
The most important part of the symphony is Market Research.
95% of problems occurring in Internet Marketing, occur here. You will have heard me bang on about this endlessly!
And this, is where I stuffed up.
This very short video explains how I stuffed up and what we need to do about it (I can just hear Mr T. shouting “who’s We Sucka” — I loved the A-Team, but I digress).
It’s crucial you learn the concept of moving from Market Research to Market Understanding and eventually, Market Leadership.
Here’s the video;
In Thirty Day Challenge PLUS, we are going show you how you can achieve market understanding — and eventually, market leadership — in a step-by-step way. I’m pretty sure, this stuff just hasn’t been taught anywhere.
We are at a very unique moment in time, where the tools to communicate to your market and the strategies for what you need to say have merged.
Some call it Web 2.0…
For those of you who grasp it, it represents the best chance for you to dominate your marketplace that you have ever had.
(Yes, even in “tough” times…)
Make sure you watch the video, this is a crucial concept and bluntly, one I should have taught from the get go.

PS: Keep Thursday night free. We are going to have a special edition of 30 day challenge TV. We can talk all about Thirty Day Challenge PLUS, answer your questions and tell you exactly how you can join and how much it will cost (it will cost something, but we are going to redefine the word value when it comes to Internet marketing training)
PPS: Happy Birthday Alison Reynolds!

I also have discovered TRIBES, by Grodin, thanks to your 30-Day Challenge network on FriendFeed — very stimulating read [or listen in my case via Audicle.com]. And now you are tempting me with Market Understanding and Market Leadership.
Your Thirty-Day Challenge 2008 — I’m still slowly working through it all — is prompting an entirely new thrust to my own blogging. I’ve signed up with Hostgater [enjoy a coffee with your commission!], secured my domain [both .com and .net] and am beginning to work on content. I hope to roll it out in January.
Through two years of blogging, I’ve discovered that my market of “activie writers”, while huge, is difficult to target. Yes, one can segment it, but current niches identified by Market Samurai, are not on my target. So I’ll be trying [against your advice, I guess] to build a brand new market niche, heretofore unidentified before I established my original blog [I now have two copycats! - a tribute, I guess]. I think your Market Leadership material will be especially helpful to me. THANKS — look forward to it.

I am looking forward to the 30 day plus. Product creation is definitely an obstacle for me. I need to take a second look at the 30 day challenge, but I have implemented some of it. The commissions are so tiny with affiliate marketing that it does seem one needs an inordinate amount of traffic.

Awesome, awesome, awesome! I can’t wait for 30DC+. I love everything you teach Ed, and especially because you’re an Aussie like me!
Thanks so much for doing all of this and especially for the 30DC.

Ed, this is the easiest sale your ever going to make, 2 seconds in I decided to join 30+. (Who needs Yanik Silver.-)
Being a foundation member makes me wee.
Plus I’m going to buy a new Mac to help implement your market leading strategies.
Tribes is an amazing book people…get it.

Well, Thank you so much for all that Ive learned, my head has been buzzing since my brother introduced me to 30dc.
Im a mature person and not always as quick as you younger ones!
Nevertheless I have managed to set up a website :www.eternityringsonline.com which you can look at if you like.
The thing is I still find it hard to know where to paste affiliate links.
This makes the site look a bit untidy.
Can anyone help me with this?
I will watch the video above and will definately carry on with my ‘training’
Thankyou all of the team

Awesome post and video. I find it amazing that a month some ago I discovered that very book and it is inspiring me in a different direction than what you are intially proposing. But it is helping me tons and now I have to look at Plus for myself. All my 30DC success is in part to that book, as I am using some stuff I found here and I just got my day 28 Email (I started Late) and my blogging has net me a whopping EARNINGS
$ 15.10 on one blog and EARNINGS $ 1.09 on the other. I would not have done this without 30DC so thank you.

clueless?

‘Tribes’ is a very powerful concept and I have been sort of edging myself into understanding how it could work in penetrating a market. The niche I am in is very wide and the prospect of me dominating it is very remote
But, my market does consist of tribes, and I personally belong to a number of tribes. So, getting these to overlap and interact seems the obvious thing to do. It’s like being a bigger fish in a smaller pond (I think!)
30DC+ sounds just the deal. How much will it cost?
Thanks

Finally an honest post from an internet marketing teacher. Your one of the few people that mentioned the word ‘work’.
Good on ya!
