  • Did a cat really do this?

    was browsing the old tinternet when this caught my eye…

    You may have seen this on the NBC News.

    Police received a 911 call from Gary Rosheisen’s apartment but apparently, there was no one on the phone.

    And when police called back to check that everything was OK.

    And no one answered they decided to check things out.

    Upon arriving at the apartment…

    …a police officer said that an orange-and-tanned striped cat was lying by the telephone on the living room floor.

    And Gary (the cat’s owner) had fallen out of his wheelchair on the floor near his bed.

    Gary said he couldn’t get up because of the pain from osteoporosis and ministrokes that disrupt his balance.

    Gary said he had been trying to teach his cat Tommy (he got three years ago) to dial 911.

    But he was unsure if the training worked.

    It reminds me of the film Cats & Dogs which came out in 2001.

    Where both cats and dogs act dumb around humans, and both have secret headquarters.

    Could this cat be one of those highly trained Ninja cats?

    One day we could be the ones wearing the collars and they’ll be leading us, lol.

    Zaf.

  • Have you ever studied memory training?

    I had to sort out a new laptop for a new starter in the company I currently work for.

    I tend to get the bus as it’s a heck of a lot quicker.

    The car I had (a dark green 3-door Corsa) I ended up scrapping almost six years ago now.

    I can quite literally look out my living room window and see the bus stop…

    That’s how close it is. so I’ve never bothered getting another car.

    When I had one, I found it too much hassle trying to find somewhere to park in the middle of the city…

    Quite a few years ago now I came across a book on memory training called “Master Your Memory” by Tony Buzan.

    On Mnemonics as it’s known…

    …I first encountered Mnemonics in a book of magic tricks when I was at school.

    To aid the memory.

    Applying the memory system in the book allowed you then to memorize a huge number of boring facts by turning them into an engaging story.

    Although at that time a lot wasn’t known on the workings of the human mind.

    More recent studies now show that these techniques are a natural way for the human brain to work… and remember things.

    As the great founding father of internet marketing… Ken McCarthy said in his copywriting course.
    “Stories are the chief means by which human beings communicate and process information.”

    And that’s why all most well-known ancient religious texts are in story format because you can remember them better.

    And that’s why telling stories works so great in all your communications.

    Zaf.

  • I’ve just upgraded to ThriveCart Pro+

    I logged into my ThriveCart account today and was greeted with a new interface.

    When I first saw it… I thought “What the fu*K”.

    I was initially caught by surprise by the change in the interface.

    And I also didn’t realize at first that I could also upgrade for free, lol.

    Since I already have a ThriveCart Pro account,

    I clicked on the small green thin banner to upgrade to ThriveCart Pro+ expecting to see the cost of the upgrade.

    I don’t know how on earth I missed that it was a FREE upgrade.

    After going through the initial setup I had the option of upgrading all my products to use Stripe Connect+.

    This is for a business account for Stripe.

    Looking on Google it said:

    “It allows a business to take a payment from a customer and split it between several other businesses.

    This includes the Stripe Connect platform itself, plus other parties, like drivers, shoppers, or other service providers.

    Connect also enables software platforms to offer payment functionality to their customers.”

    I’ve had a pro account now for about 3 years.

    Since I don’t use PayPal, Stripe has been a great alternative for taking payments.

    The new ThriveCart Pro+ account… offers enhanced reporting, advanced analytics, multiple order bumps and more.

    There’s now a max of 6 order bumps for each digital product.

    (Though I doubt I’ll ever use six, maybe two, three at the max.)

    No doubt there are going to be some bugs like any new features being rolled out.

    I think it’ll be a little while yet before I add more than one order bump to my products.

    Zaf.

  • One interesting fact about Leonardo…

    Everyone’s heard of Leonardo Da Vinci…

    There have even been films made about him.

    Considered as one of the most prolific inventors in history…

    …that spent hours upon hours creating and concocting inventions and innovations.

    In a variety of fields including flight, warfare, and public water systems.

    But did you know that Leonardo da Vinci’s last name…

    Da Vinci wasn’t his last name?

    (I didn’t either, that is until 5 minutes before writing this email, lol.)

    His actual full name was Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci.

    da Vinci means…

    “From Vinci”, Florence Italy.

    (The place he was from.)

    Anyway…

    Have a great day.

  • Have you tried this great video hosting tool yet?

    Well, it looks like the sun has decided to go into hiding.

    It’s a wet and cold day here in Notts today.

    When I first started creating my upsell, I needed a platform to host my videos for the training.

    I did a trial of Vimeo, and although it was quite good, I found it a tad expensive.

    After I came across this excellent alternative that I’ve now been testing for the past ten months or so.

    And found it to be a VERY cheap alternative to Vimeo.

    That’s as good as Vimeo and other more expensive options out there.

    And I thought I’d put this on your radar…

    It’s called Bunney.net

    That not only is great for videos but also for storing files to deliver to your subscriber and customers.

    I’ve now been using it ten months and, in that time, I’ve only added $10 to my account so that’s a mere $1 a month.

    I haven’t yet used it to store any files as I wanted to test the video hosting side.

    Which I must admit is pretty damn good… from being able to customize the colour of the player to the security.

    If you haven’t tried it and you’re looking for an inexpensive alternative to the more expensive options out there then I highly recommend you take a look.

    A pay as you go alternative.

    That’s been great for me for hosting videos.

    Now I need to remember to start using it for files for product delivery and lead magnets, etc.

    You can see the screenshot below of my account of what I’ve used.

    And that I’ve not long added another $10 today.

    I’ve about 24 videos so not a huge amount.

    It’s well worth testing out.

    Give a try and see what you think.

  • 7 Bills that are going up this week in the UK

    Can you believe that we’re in April already?

    The wife was complaining this morning about the rise in water cost, thinking it’s gone up by around £8 or £9 extra a month.

    And the direct debit had just gone out of the bank. Boy, she was fuming…

    I came across an article on the BBC News website relating to this…

    With the headline.

    ‘I can’t shop around for my water supplier, so how can I cut costs?’

    The article lists these 7 bills that are going up this week in the UK:

    ✅ Water bills for households in England and Wales are up by £10 per month on average, but there’s a lot of variation depending on the company, externally. In Scotland, they’re rising by almost 10%

    ✅ Gas and electricity bills are increasing again – this time by an average of £111 a year to £1,849 – for millions of households

    ✅ Council tax in England is generally going up by 4.99%, with bills in Wales rising by about 4.5% to 9.5%, and in Scotland by at least 8%

    ✅ The standard rate of tax for cars registered after April 2017 is rising by £5 to £195 a year. According to the RAC, external,, external you may pay less or more if your car was first used before 2017

    ✅ Broadband and phone bill rises depend on your provider and contract start date. The cost of a TV licence is also going up by £5 to £174.50

    ✅ Stamp duty will be paid by house buyers in England and Northern Ireland on properties over £125,000, instead of over £250,000

    ✅ Hidden tax rises are also inbound. This is due to the freeze on thresholds on income tax and National Insurance.

    This is often called a “stealth tax” – in short, pay goes up, but the tax thresholds don’t, meaning you’re more likely to pay a higher rate

    I don’t know about you, but there’s a couple from that list I wasn’t even aware of.

    With the cost of living rising in the UK and other parts of the world…

    …more and more people will be pushed into having to either find a second job or look for ways they can make an extra side income.

    I think you’re far better off creating a side income that you can if you want to build a business around.

  • The 10 of 10 secret

    What do you call a well-balanced horse?

    Stable.

    Hahaha…

    Did you crack a smile?

    I did when I read that, lol.

    I came across the following idea from Ben Settle, although I heard something similar before.

    If you’re like me, I bet you have a ton of products and books that you’ve paid anywhere from $100 – $1,000 for.

    Out of the good ones, how many times have you gone through them?

    I have a shit load and out of these that are good I’d say only two I’ve gone through at least twice.

    Ben’s idea is that it’s better to consume the good ones 10x’s (at LEAST).

    Sounds a bit overdoing it aye!

    But consider this…

    Going through those good products that many times will give you a DEEP understanding of the subject.

    You’ll also get a ton of ideas, solutions and lots and lots of ideas for your ads, products, articles, blog posts, emails, etc.

    (And even one good idea could make you a ton of money.)

    And copywriting and marketing greats like Gary Bencivenga and David Deutsche say the same thing.

    If they could do it over again, they would read 10 of the best books 10 times each instead of 100 so-so books.

    There’s a saying that Les Brown says which goes… faith comes by hearing and hearing and hearing.

    And it’s the same with learning.
    The more you watch, listen or read something the more it seeps into your subconscious.

    Allowing your subconscious to mull it over while you’re busy doing other things.

    And when you least expect it… ideas will start popping into your mind that you’ll be able to use in your business and life.

    Give it a try and let me know what you think.

  • One book that changed John Carlton’s life

    If, like most people, you’ve made some new goals for this year.

    But…

    It’s not enough to want a goal or really really want it and envision it!

    Nope.

    You must break it down.

    For example: if you want to make a million dollars this year, there are quite a few ways to do this.

    1)   Make about $100,000 each month

    2)   You could make 3 big scores of about $333,000

    3)   You could start to build on what you make each month; you could make $10,000 in January and $50,000 in February, $350,000 in March and start building up.

    And as John says, if you don’t know how that process is going to happen you’re lost.

    And if you make this kind of goal in January, by March or April, you going to realize that you are nowhere near getting there because you don’t know what to do.

    You need to get a plan down.

    The main things that stop people from hitting their goals are…

    …they don’t know what to do first and they don’t know what to do next.

    There’s one book that John Carlton talks about and recommends in his training and that he says changed his life.

    You’ve no doubt heard about it and may have more than likely read it.

    It’s Think & Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

    And in chapter 2 it lists 6 steps that you need to take to achieve your goals.

    Napoleon Hill’s 6-Steps

    Step 1: Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire.

    Step 2: Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire.

    Step 3: Establish a definite date when you intend to have the money you desire.

    Step 4: Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.

    Step 5: Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you wish to have. The date you’ll have this by. State what you intend to give in return for the money and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it.

    Step 6: Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once before retiring to bed, and once after arising in the morning. As you read – see feel and believe yourself already in possession of the money.

    So, if you aim to make a million dollars, then you’ll need to create a definite plan on how you are going to do this.

    Ask yourself “What are the intermediate things I’ll need to do to achieve this?”

    Then break this down into actionable steps.

    And if that plan fails, you can create another plan and keep doing that till you see success.

    Remember that action is as important as planning.

  • The Ronald McDonald Trend?

    The Ronald McDonald Trend?

    Clown

    When you think of influencers, you’d think of people on TikTok or Instagram – right?

    Well, one influencer lived long before the internet …

    In fact, in the 16th century.

    Her name was Queen Elizabeth I of England.

    In 1562 Queen Elizabeth I contracted smallpox…

    Which almost killed her.

    Although she survived the smallpox it had left her with terrible scars all over her body…

    With such a high profile, she needed to seem beautiful and regal to the masses.

    She started a trend to wear makeup to cover blemishes and other flaws on the face…

    … It was a concoction that consisted of lead and vinegar that created a white paste.

    What was known as “Venetian ceruse” a potential killer…

    (Seems kinda crazy eye?)

    That was regularly applied to her face. For a while, she only used it to conceal the scars on her face.

    But it didn’t take long for this to catch on…

    … and before you knew it more and more women began to copy her.

    Being so well recognized meant that many women started to use makeup just like Queen Elizabeth.

    That started a trend crossing the classes…

    And having a perfectly white face came to symbolize youth and wealth…

    What’s more, if the makeup didn’t kill you then most likely the facial cleanser used to remove the makeup probably would have.

    It consisted of rosewater, mercury, honey and eggshells…

    and to top it off Elizabeth used bright red pigments or lipstick that contained heavy metals…

    I know what you’re thinking!

    And no, not the rock band type, hahaha – the toxic or
    poisonous sorts at low concentrations.

    Can you imagine living in those times and a woman approaching you looking like Ronald McDonald? Lol.

  • 20 years till seen again?

    20 years till seen again?

    On April 8th there’s going to be a solar eclipse…

     Eclipse chasers from Fresno will be travelling to Texas to be in the path of totality – Where the moon completely blocks out the sun’s direct rays.

     Due to the moon’s shorter distance to Earth, the time of totality will be more than twice as long in Texas than in the 2017 western U.S total eclipse.

     And there won’t be another one in the U.S. for 20 years.

     Although eclipse chasers say that a…

     “Total solar eclipse is ‘nature’s most awe-inspiring phenomenon.’ Your life literally changes. You can feel the earth move beneath your feet.”

     This isn’t the main reason why they’re going…

     The main reason is that this will be the only opportunity for the onlookers to stare at the sun with their naked eyes without risking blindness.

    I expect there will be a lot of people heading that way to have what’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to witness this incredible event.

     Hope you have a great weekend.

     Zaf.

     P.S. (CLOSING TOMORROW)

    Chances are your affiliate marketing results are not as good as you want?

     The sad truth is most affiliates earn barely enough in commissions to make it worth the effort, let alone make a full-time living from it.

     Simply because they’re using the same tried and worn-out strategies as everyone else, whether they realise it or not.

     So, what is your current affiliate strategy?

     Do you apply for the latest launch and often get turned down?

     A few small changes to the way you work as an affiliate marketer (even if you haven’t started yet) and you can see BIG results.

     And that’s exactly what you’ll learn in the Retired Super Affiliate publication by Tony Shepherd…

     About the publication, Tony says:

     “If I had to start from scratch TODAY with no list, no products, no reputation and no contacts…

     … I could build up a full-time affiliate marketing income in a very short time indeed using these strategies

    I share in this publication.”Inside the publication, you’ll discover…

    ·      Reciprocity – How to benefit even if don’t have your own products (Page 29)

    ·      Strategy Five – How to create affiliate income streams (Page 34)

    ·      How to maximise your chances of profit from ANY paid traffic (Page 37)

    ·      Strategy 6 – A simple approach for LAZY affiliate marketers (Page 38)

    ·      And a hell of a lot more!

    Now ask yourself this one question…

    Is it finally time to start changing things for yourself?

    Affiliate marketing is the fastest and easiest way for anyone to start a full-time online business…

    You’re not going to go from ZERO to ten thousand dollars overnight but this is something where in my opinion you can see results faster than other things such as blogging or product creation.

    Now there’s no guarantee you’ll succeed with these strategies – after all, I can’t make you do the work required but one thing can be said by the end of the publication you WILL have something concrete to act on.

    You also get a 5-page PDF cheat sheet as a bonus of the 9 strategies…

    You can print it off as a reminder and you’ll get access to this in the member’s area.

    (Note you won’t see the bonus on the sales page but on the checkout page.)

     And if you wish I can give you that right now by clicking here.
