Who here knew Paul Myers was an Internet Marketing Pro?

52 replies
Hi everyone, i am just interested to know how many of you knew that Paul Myers one of the chief moderators here is also a very experienced and knowledgeable Internet Marketer?
Maybe i've been living under a stone or something but i only just discovered Paul's knowledge in this area, primarily because of a thread here asking about people's favourite Internet Marketing books. I recommended Christine Clayfield's "From newbie To Millionaire" which is an awesome book for newbies, intermediate and experienced marketers alike in my opinion.

However, one of my friend's Joe Robinson linked to talkbiznews.com and i opted in, started reading it, and in my opinion it's a must read in how to set up a successful business model online.

Thus, there's 3 points to come out of this that i can think of:
1. Thanks Paul for the awesome content, i'll for sure look at you with different eyes from now on LOL.
2. Thanks Joe for showing this to me and others.
3. Maybe I've been living under a stone or maybe others are also unaware of this too? It would be interesting to know.
Thanks
Joel

    It would seem strange to me to have someone in such a position at such a forum as this that was a newbie in IM, but I've been off plenty of times before.

      I accept that but still he doesn't have to have such a knowledge, he could just be technically good or whatever. It's an awesome ebook/report which everyone on this forum could gain from, it fills me with confidence though that this forum is in good hands with someone like that as a moderator.

    I've been publishing a newsletter for online business folk for 12 years now. And something is bothering me.
    In those 12 years, I've seen a ton of people come into the game, work their butts off, and get much less than they'd hoped for from their efforts.
    12 years, it means he is big giant in Internet Marketing field. hhhmmm that is why also he is Chief Mod of WF.

      There are people who have been working in the same job and career for 40 years and not made money or been a success it doesn't prove anything i have to tell you. Also, why does that mean he is chief Mod here i don't understand what you're saying here.

          Exactly me too, it fills me with a lot of confidence about the direction of this forum and where it's going to go. My advice would be to get that report though it's awesome.

          You don't seem to be getting what i'm saying, yes there are many people who have knowledge and are in the same career and profession for their whole lives and didn't make a success. For example i know an actuary which in the UK is one of the best paying jobs and really hard to qualify for and the guy has never made good money and he's in his 60's.

      It's useful i think for those who may be concerned about who these "mods" actually are, where the forum may head towards etc. Also, it is a promotion i guess of his report to those who are serious about making a success online and building a sustainable business model which is what my #1 goal is all about and should be what others here strive to achieve too.

                lol well I figure since I'm using a meme generator, I'm not exactly copying and pasting someone else's image...although I'm using someone else's program to do it at a moment's notice. But if it is against TOS then it's against TOS


                ...and does that mean I need to remove my silly sig file too? that would be a bummer.

                  It's not against the rules to post pictures anymore lol, and I'll never begrudge anyone who does it. Good comedy is good comedy. In light of the new rule, I'm just a bit too lazy to link back to the right to publish everytime.

                  As Paul's post I linked to stated, just putting your own text over a picture does not make it originally yours, at least that is how I understand it. Now, that's not to say that memes are not allowed. You just need to prove that you have permission from the site you created it from to use that image. I'm assuming that is in their TOS or something.

                  Again, the issue is a bit further above my head than I like to bother with, hence Joe has become a text based forum entity.

          Yeah i'm also not sure to be honest, but many here i think think of moderator's here and they think Paul Myers. Awesome picture but wasn't there a thread recently saying these pictures and cartoons weren't allowed anymore due to copyright infringements?

    I find Pauls teaching to be like Mr. Myagi "wax on wax off". You have to take it alot of times, even if you dont get it, then you get it. lol

    He gives you magical keys that you wont be able to intellectualize alot of times, but when you get them in action they make alot of sense.

    Some of the best stuff I have learned from Paul has been a ton of meaning packed into one secret sentence that doesnt come to life without action.

    Paul is hands down my favorite warrior teacher.

    Ps. Not to go overboard but I have also made a virtual TON of money directly from Pauls advice and material.

    Try the "thud factor" for one...then when you get more advanced, try "the idea spot".- You will NEED it to understand the more advanced level, or vantage point you will come to, and navigate your way through it.

    Brilliant teacher, Paul Myers.

      Thanks John, one thing at a time, but i know what you mean. He writes on such a deep level that i need to spend a number of times going over some of it, and i've been around for a bit. He drills down very deep to the fundamentals in a way i haven't seen before, and has changed my approach to one or two things already. Like "value is defined by what they want" not what they need, i thought it was both but when i thought about it, i suddenly went ping of course he's right.

            Your OP equates to "Joe's my buddy and he's awesome!" and "Paul's the best!" While neither are entirely untrue, they aren't normally the things people start threads about around here. Imagine how fast this place would turn into a circlejerk of "X is awesome. Y sucks."

              It's a good way for the OP to rocket his post count though . . . . 23 and still counting in this thread; as signified by the noughts in . . . . vrooooooooooooooooooooooom.

                  You keep responding and bumping it Joel. I wasn't really paying attention but the Devil makes a point. Looks a ton like a post count boosting thread. If that's not your goal and you are quite happy to let the thread die down: stop responding.

                  Don't even respond to this post. We know Paul Myers is a swell guy. Let it go in peace.... Then maybe they won't delete it.

    Maybe i've been living under a stone or something but i only just discovered Paul's knowledge in this area, primarily because of a thread here asking about people's favourite Internet Marketing books. I recommended Christine Clayfield's "From newbie To Millionaire" which is an awesome book for newbies, intermediate and experienced marketers alike in my opinion.

    However, one of my friend's Joe Robinson linked to talkbiznews.com and i opted in, started reading it, and in my opinion it's a must read in how to set up a successful business model online.

    Thus, there's 3 points to come out of this that i can think of:
    1. Thanks Paul for the awesome content, i'll for sure look at you with different eyes from now on LOL.
    2. Thanks Joe for showing this to me and others.
    3. Maybe I've been living under a stone or maybe others are also unaware of this too? It would be interesting to know.
    Thanks
    Joel
    Yeah ... I'll say I knew. I've been getting his newsletter for some time, bought quite a few of his products, and have promoted some. It's not that he just a good marketer ... he's a great product creator. They're so good I accidentally bought the same one twice. lol. Must have been a great sales pitch (he gave me a refund for the duplicate)
