Atlas Shrugged – An interesting case to follow

Mike Paetzold — Sat, 23 Apr 2011 00:11:59 +0000

Ayn Rand’s book Atlas Shrugged has just been made into a movie, at least the first part has. The marketing of this is quite interesting to say the least.

They could not get it out to theaters through the normal distribution channels for a few reasons but have been using “word of web” to market it.

Watching how they did it has been quite interesting. Currently it is out in 400+ theaters and climbing. (Hopefully they will be in my area shortly or if not will have to travel a good bit to see it. Currently the closest place is 60 miles away.)

Besides the normal trailers that you see in most movie preview websites they have added interconnectivity with the various theater chains. They recommend that their viewers contact the various chains asking for the movie to be played in their area. (I filled out all of the chains that are in my area.)

Check out the site at Atlas Shrugged Part 1 and if they are not in your area use the get involved section. If this is half as good as the book this is a movie people should see.

Week In Review – February 12, 2011

Mike Paetzold — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 12:47:49 +0000

Hope you had a great week and have taken care of your Valentine or are willing to face the accompanying wrath. (Not recommended from experience.)

If you like and use PLR (and you should be) this has been a great week and it has gotten better. Rosie Cottis has just started a Valentine’s Day sale. Grab any 10 packages for $57 or any 5 packages for $37 and save up to 50% on these packs.

Besides that Melissa Ingold is offering 2 complete PLR packages for just a $1. Add in all of the other new releases this week and there is no reason for anyone to be struggling for content.

Nicole Dean of Easy PLR released a video tutorial which I have added to the PLR blog that will show you how to take a word doc and make it into a PDF using free software. These little steps and the cost of things like Adobe often stop new people from using PLR.

Finally Susanne Myers has announced a price increase Tuesday on her Affiliate Niche Packages and released a new one. The new one was on Migraine Headaches and surprise of surprises Nicole Dean just happened to release an article package on that topic the same day.

Coincidence? No, I know they are friends and talk frequently so I am sure it was on purpose and makes for a perfect reason to grab both packs and use them together.

Take advantage of some of this great content to get your business growing. PLR rocks and you really should be taking advantage of it.

Now off to the blogs.

Week In Review – February 5, 2011

Mike Paetzold — Sat, 05 Feb 2011 11:39:51 +0000

Well a lot happening this week. Bad weather here, Super Bowl on Sunday, start of the year of the rabbit, Ground Hog Day and those are just the distractions. If I watched the news I could add a bunch more.

So those are not an unusual list and make it easy to lose your way. Are you keeping your focus so far this year?

Focus will help you get more done and improve what is working.

Setting affiliate landmines can be a great way to accomplish a lot of things easily. Free reports are one of my favorite tools in my landmine arsenal and the new Free Report PLR release from Alice Seba this week can make it really easy to create them.

Having your own product gives you a lot of advantages and with the package released this week on Webinars you get everything you need to create and promote the product.

So there are two ideas to move your business forward now off to the blogs.

Week In Review – January 29, 2011

Mike Paetzold — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 12:57:28 +0000

Wowzers! January is just about gone. 2011 is already flying or it may just be me being old. Either way it begs the question are you on track for 2011?

Personally I have been a bit behind here the first two weeks but have been catching things up the last two.

It is important that you have your goals and that you are tracking what you have accomplished. If you don’t then you have no idea where you are going to end up.

Enough blathering from me lets go to the blogs.

WordPress Made Easy

The PLR Secrets

The Old Bald Guy

Whats Hot

Facebook Pages Made Easy PLR – Facebook has been and will continue to be a hot button topic and these reports are perfect for anyone that has a Facebook product or sell a a Facebook product as an affiliate to use for lead generation and as affiliate landmines.

PLR eCourses – These make it easy to start building your list and there are a number of topics that you can use to match your targeted purchasers.

Relentless Traffic – A new course from Joel Osborne that will show you 6 ways to generate free traffic that work. Not the garbage special loop holes crap but real traffic strategies that work for a price that I thought was way too low.

PLR Tutorial Videos – There has been a huge number of quality PLR products released so far this year and PLR is a great starting point you should be using. If you are not it is probably because you are not sure how to use it. This course from Doug Champigny will blow up those stumbling blocks.

That is all for this week. Check where you are at in relation to what you had planned as the first month of the year is over. If you are ahead make sure to treat yourself. Rewards are important.

If you are not set up a plan to get back on track and then treat yourself after that for getting prepared.

Have a great week end and leave your comments below.

Well another week in the books for 2011. Not exactly what I had planned for but that seems to be the way things are going of late.

Just back from Reading to drop off the nephew to his Mom’s so running late which has been more often than not so far this year.

I am getting back on track though so that is a good thing even if just a little bit behind. Today will be a catch up day as the Eagles lost last week so football no longer as big a priority there.

A lot of new quality PLR packages released this week though.

Lets get to the blogs which have been behind too

Week In Review – December 18, 2010

Mike Paetzold — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 13:50:48 +0000

It has been a crazy week here to say the least. Was without an internet access from Tuesday morning until yesterday. Made for a goofy week to say the least. Working from their library made for very limited access.

The good part is it did allow me to get some things done here but it really messed up my plans for the week.

One week from Christmas today and two weeks until 2011.

The good part is that when you don’t have any interruptions from the usual things like email, Skype, etc. it is amazing how much you can do on various projects quickly.

Now off to a very abbreviated blogging list.

Well December is here and the winter has arrived in PA. Thermometer on the back deck has already been below 20 degrees and seems to be staying below the 40 mark even during the day.

Hoping my blood thickens up as I know it is not unusual but after no fall to speak of it has been a shock. Three weeks until the big guy in the red suit arrives. Where has 2010 gone?

Personally started my year end review and planning in a serious manner this week. Have a great freebie this week for you that I am using and recommend you follow the same steps.

The turtles have been sluggish with the weather change so nothing from Baby but there has been some great posts to help you this week.

Well Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday have passed us by already for another year. If you are in the US hope you had a great holiday.

I certainly did. Lots of food and football so I am recovering and getting back to work. As December rapidly approaches it is time to start asking questions and planning your improvements.

Look for more on that topic as the new year rapidly approaches. Well maybe it is only rapid for old bald guys but here it is coming quickly.

Have been working hard to get ahead on my blogging and it has definitely helped keep me on track. Lots from the blogs this week and more than normal added here too. Let’s get started.
