We're adding a lot of video to our websites now. We all know (based on what every guru I've studied says), that videos can sometimes dramatically boost conversion rates on sales copy, websites and/or landing pages.
Carlos Garcia, for example, created a report that showed how adding a video to one of his websites and [...]

If you have ever wondered why you couldn't convince your wife to buy that Ferrari, or why your customers don't seem to 'get' what you are desperately trying to sell them, it's really not your fault. Our Chief Mathematician revealed these mysteries through the power of maths/physics/scientific proof.
Below is his brilliant presentation during our [...]

Whenever a customer buys a product or subscribes to something, they always end up on a "Thank You" page. It's obvious.
You can use this to your advantage by doing more on it than encourage your customers to close the window.

I just had a reader post the following comment below our post on "How to Get from 20 Million to 100 Million in Online Sales"
I don't usually publicize comments. But this is an exception. As I was reading this comment and the strategy the writer shared, it kept reminding me of some lessons I learned [...]

At Orlando I got invited to dinner with the very memorable duo of Travis Miller and Jimmy Vee. These guys are the authors of Gravitational Marketing: The Science of Attracting Customers.

Frank Kern discussed the concept of the "Customer Avatar" on Day 2 of the Strategic Profits Event in Orlando.
So What's a Customer Avatar? In this video I explain this concept and talk about a major screw up we made by sending out an email recently without understanding the "Customer Avatar" Concept.

It's Day 1 at the conference as I write this.
I arrived a little late due to my plane troubles. But was just able to catch the last 30 minutes of Mike Filsaime's session.
Here's the thing I like about Mike. You can walk in just as he's wrapping up and still find enough juicy nuggets of [...]

I'm writing this post from Orlando, Florida.
Or specifically, DisneyWorld. I'm surrounded by kids wearing mickey mouse hats, really happy toddlers, really tired parents and a bunch of Internet Marketers.
I'll be blogging daily to share a key idea or insight I gained from each day here.

My flight from Manchester ran [...]
