Today ... as usual ... my Internet journey took some unexpected turns. Seems I often start in one direction, and wind up somewhere else entirely. Thankfully, I didn't get sidetracked down any dead-end roads this time. I'm still headed in the right direction.
Tom was still asleep when I discovered a neat video about a viral marketing technique, and events developed from there. The excellent video was by James Grandstaff, in Berkley, Michigan. In it, he showed how you can make money by giving away his series of videos.
One thing led to another. Before you know it, I had signed up for free access to the Ask James Podcasts.
Of course, I don't have an iPod. But I won't need one. You see, James Grandstaff is an experienced Internet Marketer who answers people's marketing questions in online broadcasts. Downloading them for your iPod is optional.
As part of the sign-up process, I was invited to submit my most pressing marketing question. So, I told James about how I understand the marketing "steps" - get subscribers by offering a free product, etc. - but where I get stuck is the actual mechanics of how to set up this process.
How do you set up a web page to give away a downloadable product?
Even more complex, How do you set up a system of web pages that takes an order, collects the money, and then delivers the product?
So, we'll see if my question gets answered on a future Podcast or not. Meanwhile, I'll be checking out some of the already recorded Podcasts with answers to other people's questions.
By the way, James won't be the only who answers the questions of his listeners. On occasion, he will be inviting big name famous marketers to help answer some questions during a show.
So if you have a question about marketing or making money online, or list building, or whatever, you could potentially have a guru like Mark Joyner or Mike Filsaime answer your question. I know for a fact Mark Joyner charges $2,000 per hour for phone consultation. Imagine if he answered your single biggest question regarding creating wealth online--for free!
I think you get the idea :-)

When you get to the site:
1) Register for free
2) Submit your question to James
3) Claim your free gift valued at $37
4) Listen and enjoy the show!
During registration, you get a chance to list your website URL if you have one. If your question is answered in a future Podcast, James may mention your website address. This could potentially get you a few visitors..... so have that URL handy when you register.
One thing I should make clear is that just because you submit your question to James doesn't mean that it WILL be answered during an episode.
Either way, you're still going to learn a lot from the questions that your fellow listeners ask. And all you have invested is a little bit of your time.
