Putting Eben Pagan’s Guru Mastermind to the Test
By Todd Alan | May 20, 2009
Ever wondered what a 25 million dollar a year information product business looks like? Eben Pagan is the guru to the guru’s when it comes to information products and today I’ve taken the plunge and decided to put his 1 year Guru Mastermind course to the test.
Now last year when he first launched this course he was charging about $10K for the 1 year course. This year he is offering 2 different versions of the course, one called the home study course which is much much cheaper and then the regular full on course which is also much cheaper this year.
If you’re very serious about building a real, full-time online income that far exceeds any paying job you will ever land in your lifetime then this might be the product for you. After all, there’s a reason all the top internet marketing gurus refer to him as their mentor and guru.
Check out the video here and you’ll quickly understand that Eben is not your typical all hype internet marketer, but rather a very professional product developer who knows how build an information business, and more importantly knows how to teach it to others.
Eben Pagan’s Guru Mastermind Course
I have to be honest here, I have never taken Eben’s course before and have just singed up for his full blown 1 year program to put it to the test. And yes, I will be reporting on it through this blog throughout the year.
Although I haven’t taken Eben’s course before, I can tell you that Eben has been responsible for much of the income I make every week simply as a result of what I learned from his free videos in his previous launch which I wrote about in a previous post called Eben Pagan’s Guru Mastermind Videos.
How so?
If you’ve been taking my free marketing course you know that one of my primary techniques is to create product specific bonuses for the affiliate products I market. Those product specific bonuses I talk about are essentially mini info products in their own right.
If the mini info product bonus you create is done right then it can often turn into a sellable product on it’s own. Here’s how I’ve been doing it …
You create a bonus mini eBook for a product you’re marketing as described in my course. The eBook, which can be as little as 15 pages, is targeted to helping people get more out of the product you’re marketing. Some of the people arriving at your site already have the product, but since your bonus eBook looks so good they wish they had bought the product from you.
Next thing you know people are asking if they can simply buy it from you. So you slap a small $29 price tag on it and then expand it a little to maybe 30 pages. Now all of a sudden you’re not only selling the original affiliate product, but for existing owners you’re now selling them a mini product like an add-on.
If it picks up steam you continue to expand the mini info product and up the price until you have a full fledged info product ready for clickbank.
The beauty of this model is that you don’t have to go crazy developing an info product until you’ve first tested the waters with a simple 15 page mini bonus. Only after you begin making affiliate sales and people ask to buy the guide do you then put the effort into turning it into a full on info product … and your affiliate sales you get from giving it away as a bonus in the beginning will actually fund your efforts to create the full on product.
That’s how you bootstrap yourself into an info product of your own and start making crazy big money.
I have followed the exact model I just described many times now. I have recently repeated this model just in the past 3 months with a new product which now makes about $350/day via paypal sales. I expect it to triple or more once I move the product to clickbank, which I’m in the process of doing now.
So how does Eben Pagan’s Guru Mastermind course fit into this?
Well it was Ebens previous free videos that inspired me to push the info product creation and the success his free material has brought me is precisely why I’ve decided to take the plunge and shell out the money for his 1 year course. I’m so confident that it will literally explode my online business that for me it’s a no brainer.
I already use Portal Feeder to drive all the traffic I could possible imagine to any web site I want, the only piece left in order to get from $1000 days to some serious uber guru money is creating top notch info products right?

The Secret Behind Portal Feeder
By Todd Alan | April 27, 2009
You’ve heard me talk about the Kahuna team in the past but what I’m going to tell you today is something I’ve never talked about before and that is the secret behind Portal Feeder. And why haven’t I talked about Portal Feeder before? The truth is most internet marketers are simply not ready for it.
Portal Feeder is absolutely the most powerful and efficient set of money making tools and training on the web bar none! The problem is that it’s not for newbies. If you’re new to affiliate marketing and are still trying to figure out what an affiliate link is or have never made a clickbank sale (or any affiliate sale) then this is probably not the place for you.
If however you are at that stage where you’re making a few hundred dollars a month then this is exactly where you need to be if you want to take your marketing profits to the big leagues and really make a serious living at this.
If you are a newbie and are pretty dedicated to your new found trade then you can more than likely make it work for you as well. In fact the only reason I single out newbies is because this is a serious tool for those who know what they want … not for tire kickers just thinking about it but not doing anything.
OK, with that out of the way let’s get down to business.
Portal Feeder is the big brother of Traffic Kahuna and PPC Kahuna. In fact when you join Portal Feeder what you’re getting is access to ALL of the Kahuna trainging and tools and I PROMIS you, you will never need anything else but these tools and training to make a killing online.
You know you need a lot of traffic for your pages if you’re going to make sales. How do you do that?
You need massive incoming links. You need lots of Web 2.0 real estate like squidoo pages, hub pages, blogs etc … You need lot’s of social bookmakring, you need other blogs posting with links back to your site etc …
But how they heck do these big time marketers manage to do all that? There’s only so much time in a day right?
OK, now imagine you have nearly 9000 blogs you can post blog posts to with back links back to your site. Image you have professional article spinner tools that let you take one article and turn it into a hundred truely unique (and readable) articles that you can now drip out to you network of blogs scattered all over the web.
Imagine you had a tool where you could create multiple profiles and then automate the social bookmarking of your web real estate scattered all over the web from multiple accounts.
Imagine you can use a single desktop tool to manage multiple blogs and other real estate all from one location.
Imagine you had some of the worlds top internet marketers constantly spilling the beans on how they do things in their continuous training sessions and then give you the tools to actually do it for yourself.
Portal Feeder is how the mega marketers do what they do. They have the tools to build large networks of websites, blogs and web 2.0 pages all driving massive traffic to their property.
With Portal Feeder there are simply too many tools to describe here but trust me when I tell you that everything you need is right here and the training n how to use is and the ongoing support is second to none.
Now I have to be honest, Portal Feeder isn’t cheap. At $300/month it’s a tool only for the serious marketers out there. But if you’re already pulling even a couple hundred amonth then there is absolutlely no doubt in my mind that the Portal Feeder tools will turn your tiny few hundred dollars into some serious quite your job kind of money.
The question of whether it will pay for itself or not is entirely on your shoulders because all you have to do is use the tools and you will be so far ahead of your competitors it you’ll feel sorry for them.
I’ve been bragging about Traffic Kahuna for about a year now and a month ago the Portal Feeder doors finally opened again so I took the plunge and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I knew it would be but given that the doors only open once (maybe twice) a year it’s not so easy to get in, especially since the turn over rate is almost nonexistent.
It’s a pretty exclusive club to say the least, but if you think you’re ready for the big leagues and you’re actually going to use the tools then now is the time to jump on this or you could be out in the cold for another year.

Google Adwords, Price, Position and Quality Score
By Todd Alan | March 22, 2009
Ever wonder how Google Adwords determines your CPC price, the position you get and how the quality score figures into it all at the end of the day? This short video from Google’s chief economist Hal Varian describes the process in detail with as much clarity as you’re going to find anywhere. It’s a graet video that anyone using or considering Adwords needs to watch.
This video was brought to my attention from a comment on my “Help Me Help You with the New Weekly Poll” post left by Neil. Thanks Neil! I’m sure many people will come away with a better understanding from this video.
What do you think of the video?
Know of any others that would compliment this video?

How to Make Money with CPA Marketing
By Todd Alan | March 15, 2009
How do you make money with CPA offers? And are claims of $100K/month real or complete B.S.?
There’s a lot of misinformation floating around about CPA offers and it usually comes from blokes who’ve never actually even been involved in CPA before. Fortunately Gauher Chaudhry’s recent release of his FREE 89 page guide, The Insiders Guide To CPA Marketing Profits, will certainly set you straight.
Oh yeah, the answer is YES people are clearing $100K a month with CPA marketing!
If your exposure to affiliate marketing is largely ClickBank, Commission Junction and the likes of these then you’re world is about to get a whole lot bigger once you read this free report.
What is CPA marketing and why is it so lucrative?
CPA stands for Cost Per Action. Unlike typical affiliate marketing where you earn a commission when someone you refer makes a purchase, with a CPA offer you get paid when someone you refer simply takes a particular action. That’s right, no purchase necessary.
These actions can be a simple as providing an email or even just a postal code.
E-Harmony for instance will pay up to $4.50 for someone simply filling out their information form.
Get someone to apply for a free American Express card and you can earn as much as $50.
Here’s one from one of my own CPA campaigns … how about getting paid $27 every time someone requests and information package from a college or university! Yeah, pretty sweet huh?
Ask yourself if you think it’s easier to give something away or to sell something and you’ll start to understand why CPA offers can be so incredibly lucrative.
The world of CPA offers is where the big boys play and the rewards for those who can crack it are staggering.
The Insiders Guide To CPA Marketing Profits will help you break into CPA marketing and it won’t cost you a dime. And if you’ve already spent money on the Six Figure Apprentice in order to learn CPA marketing then get your money back because this guide is free and will take you a lot further than the Six Figure Apprentice ever will.
I know some of you have experience with CPA offers and various CPA networks so drop a comment and tell me about it. What CPA networks did you use? What techniques did you use to get accepted?
I look forward to hearing your stories.
