Well, I finished with the 30 Day Challenge, and I’m really impressed (but flat wore me out)!

I got a new business started, an affiliate business. Not exactly what I was planning on, but Ed didn’t have us create a product this year. That kind of bummed me out because I was planning on having my own product when we got done. He’s always had you create a product in the past.

This year he focused on traffic. Mostly Web 2.0 stuff, and it worked like a champ. Within 10 days of getting my site up, I had four out of ten spots on the first page of Google for my main keyword. I also had two spots on the second page. In 10 days, with a brand new url! I thought that was pretty cool.

Now the plan is to test the affiliate program, and if it does well create my own product in the same niche.

It blew me away to see what I got accomplished in 30 days. I learned a bunch of new concepts, how to use a bunch of new software, researched and decided on a niche, created the entire business, and got it up and running with free traffic flowing to it, all in 30 days (31 actually).

The entire course is fantastic. Ed and Dan had taught it in the past and once again did a wonderful job teaching. But I was really impressed with Guru Bob (Rob Sommerville). I’m not sure if he taught in the past or not, it was the first time I saw him teach. But, I was really impressed.

I was a corporate trainer for seven years so I’m pretty tough to impress when it comes to teaching. But Rob definitely impressed me by being well prepared and speaking to his audience on their level. That’s tough to do when the material is second nature to you. He’s a natural. Kudos to Guru Bob!

The course is still available online and will be all year. I’d highly recommend it. If you’re brand new and want to start a business of your own, you can’t beat it. You can have your own business up and running in 30 days… For Free.

If you have some experience or even if you’re a seasoned veteran, there’s more advanced material for you too. It’s well worth taking the course just to see some of the new software they came up with and how they’re using it.

Great job guys.

Now that I’m back in business, I’ll start posting the Jeff Johnson videos again. I need a refresher on creating a product. Looks like I’m still going to need to do that :-(

Talk soon.

Here’s to your success,

Tim
