The Day 30 Training Content page is live.
Today covers things to think about moving forward once the Thirty Day Challenge has finished. Your marketing education never finishes, and you should always be constantly learning in order to stay up to date and in the game.
Ed talks to you in detail about coming all the way from preseason, going all of the way through the Thirty Day Challenge itself, and finding yourself at the end wondering where to go from here. Using his Magnificent Symphony of Four Parts as a framework, Ed outlines all of the areas to look at for your next steps to take, including creating your own product and list building.
Jason Moffatt talks to you about leverage, and encourages you to think laterally about everything you have learned this month. Jason outlines how the skills you have learned in researching markets using Market Samurai, can be used as a tool for offering a service to businesses, both offline and online. If you think about what you have to offer to a business, keyword research, SEO research, online promotion, creating content, and creating back links, you’ll soon realise the value of what you have to offer.
After completing today’s lessons you will have a greater understanding of what steps to take following the Thirty Day Challenge. You will understand how to prioritize what areas you need to work on, and what you need to educate yourself about more. You will also understand the leverage you now have using the skills you have learned in the past 30 days.
Only 1 day to go!

The Day 29 Training Content page is available.
Today is all about best practice, and where marketers go wrong and make mistakes. You can learn from the mistakes of both the marketers who have come before you, and from the mistakes you’ve made yourself.
Ed covers a wide range of topics of mistakes that marketers make in today’s podcast, including simply not understanding the marketplace they are in, not doing the right research, and not following a tried, tested and proven step by step process.
Other areas Ed outlines as mistakes marketers make, is tackling markets above your skill level, getting tunnel vision, a lack of patience waiting for a process to work, and taking failure personally.
After completing today’s lesson you will have a greater understanding of where marketers go wrong, and the mistakes that are made as a result. There is a lot to learn when developing your skills, and being aware of, and learning from the mistakes of others, will help develop your own awareness of best practice.
We have a final Mindset Lesson With Karl today. Karl talks to you about your overall journey in participating in the Thirty Day Challenge, and where it fits in your overall journey at this point in your life.
Don’t forget the next 30DC TV show on Sunday night at 8.30 pm (EST).

Today is all about your options if you arrived at the decision that your niche was a ‘no go’ after following the Day 24 lessons. There are plenty of ways to turn all of the work you’ve done in creating your blog, into an asset or a return on your investment.
Anthony takes you through the steps in getting yourself a Google Adsense account, and explains in details how Adsense works and how to benefit from it. Anthony also clarifies the difference between Google Adwords and Google Adsense
Using Market Samurai, Anthony then shows you how to replace your affiliate ads on your blog with Google Adsense and Amazon ads. Anthony details the entire process for you, including how to create the look and feel of the ads on your blog.
If creating dynamic ads for your blog to generate revenue is not something you want to do, Ed shows you how you can make some money from your existing blog by selling it. Ed introduces the service Flippa, which is a site for buying and selling websites. Ed demostrates the service, and gives some examples that demonstrate what is possible, and offers some tips on on how to get the most out of the service.
Marty shows you how to use Wordpress Direct to transfer or migrate your blog if you wanted to sell it, or how to build up your blog and expand its coverage. Marty also outlines how to setup your blog using features within Wordpress Direct to either sell the blog as self publishing, as well as help you easily build up a blog network of your own to target your niche, all from within one administration panel.
After completing today’s lessons, if your blog is a “No Go”, you will have changed the ads on the blog to be dynamic ads that have a higher probability of generating some cashflow. You will have also considered the potential value of your blog should you choose at some point in the future to offer up your blog for sale on a site like Flippa.com.

The Day 24 Training Content page is up!
Day 24 - Today is go, or no go day. Based on all of the data, numbers and stats, it’s time to decide if you have a niche that is worth pursuing or not. It can be an understandably very emotional day, but you need to look things from a big picture perspective. With the tools now available to you, and the techniques you’ve been taught so far this month, there is plenty of time to catch up and keep going with a new niche.
Ed talks you through the process to follow in making a judgement call on whether your niche is a go, or a no go, based on the statistics collected. Ed also defines what a ‘go’ situation is, and what a ‘no go’ situation is, based on ranking, traffic numbers, clicks on your ads and of course sales. Ed also outlines the importance of not making any decisions before you have had enough time to generate the appropriate amount of stats.
Just getting this far is a major achievement. If you find that you will need to start again, you will soon discover that the process is far quicker than the first time through. The Thirty Day Challenge is laid out over the course of a month in order to teach it at a managable pace. Once you know how to do it, the entire process can be followed in a matter of days.
After the completion of today’s lessons, you will have first reviewed Day 17’s lessons about analyzing your stats, and then applied that knowledge to reviewing your own niche statistics. After reviewing your niche stats, you will made the decision to either continue in that niche, or to start again and research a new niche.
