I Know How To Lose Over 30 lbs. of FAT in 30 Days. CHEAP, COMFORTABLE, SAFE. Need Marketing Help!

41 replies
Hello All. My name is Michael. This is my first post and I thank everyone who has contributed to this site for the wealth of information here. The variety of topics is overwhelming and I am learning much very quickly. I have been sidetracked from my primary purpose because there is so much useful info at every turn.

I am a former electronic salesman from Central Florida. Family illnesses forced me to put that career on hold. I had to find a way to make a home based income. After years of digging only to find failure and false promises, I finally see the light. This can work big!

Here's the deal. I have no money. I mean NO MONEY lol. That will change quickly, however. I lost over 30 lbs. of fat in a month. I have experimented with this and can create results of as much as five lbs. of fat in a day. This is absolutely true.

What I need to know are the cheapest ways to get the message out. I know what to do basically. But I cant afford to buy ebook cover designs, autoresponders, etc. I currently have a simple website with a sales video and link to download the ebook via payloadz. I need to know the most effective and cheap (free is even better) for squeeze pages, sales pages, autoresponders, etc.

I have generated a small amount of traffic with Youtube and Facebook but am implementing strategies to grow. Everything is set up to sell. I just need to make it more professional looking until I can sell enough to do this right. Can anyone help? I am willing to barter my expertise for any assistance. Thanks everyone for reading this.

  • I lost 70lbs so I know the feeling. I created a few dozen info products my fastest way to do one is just rent a room get a few attendees a camera man and record it, that gives you testimonials at the same time. Good luck

    PS: Here's my 270lbs picture

    Hello Michael,

    I am well aware of what I am up against. I do stand out from the crowd though. This is the deal. I have been experimenting with my method over the past two years and have found it to be the most effective thing around. My claims seem sensational but I have done these things. I got the idea to do this because people who saw my results offered to pay. I did not document anything, it was all for personal knowledge.

    I am going to perform an incredible feat. Many would call it a publicity stunt but I know better. If I can network enough to get people to follow. IT WILL BE BIG! Starting tomorrow, I will be documenting my weight loss with video evidence. I purposely gained the weight back so I could prove how incredible my knowledge is. I am 5'8 and weigh 252 lbs. In the next month, I am going to lose 50- 90 lbs. of fat. Think about what I just said. The video documentation will be on youtube. Before you go off about safety concerns, THIS IS SAFE for most people. I have done this under a doctors care and my health IMPROVED because of it.

    My strategy is to document what may be the fastest non-surgical fat loss on record. I have not checked. The results will be dramatic, in real time and will create conversation. Social Media will be my primary avenue. I am generating small traffic with youtube and Facebook but have just recently learned some new strategies and mistakes I have made that slowed me down. I am using keywords and tags to generate Youtube traffic. I am building a group on Facebook and interacting to build relationships and rapport. I will also be performing similar actions with Twitter, Linked In, and Google Plus.

    This is a trust business and social interaction and communication are the best ways to build trust. It only helps when a guy selling a weight loss information product shows you himself losing 50-90 lbs in a month safely with daily documentation and video proof. I am also dabbling in SEO but that takes time. PPC takes money I don't have. My results will speak for themselves. With the relationship building combined with my hard proof, I should have a viral prodcut on my hands.

    This is the short version. If you need the long version, I will happily prepare that for you.

    Look I'm not meaning to come in and be a total d***. But you shouldn't lie.

    Nobody can physically lose 30lbs of fat in 30 days. A pound of fat is = 3500 calories. Most peoples maintenance calorie level is about 2500. Meaning they would have to eat NOTHING in the 30 days and exercise at a very intense level to burn the extra 1000 calories daily.

    I'm sorry but you can't ethicaly launch a product telling people they would yield that results. It's not true. And it is the said products which are destroying the fitness niche. It would essentialy be lieing to everybody who purchased the products

    However, if you want a product in this niche that will actually help people. Gte in touch with me and I will help you create one free of charge. Because like I said I am passionate about the fitness niche and I want people to stop ruining it.

    Get in touch Micheal.

      Sorry ryanmilligan but you are wrong. I don't have time to lurk in forums telling lies. I have real things going on. I have done this and if you follow me on Youtube you will see the whole thing from beginning to end. It used to be impossible to get from Florida to New York in a day. Enter the airplane. I have the airplane of weight loss. Most people are crawling. Times are changing.

      Php thanks but I am not concerned with that. My proof will be documented.

      Thanks Professor. That is good to know.

      Vikuna, I don't think you got my post. I was a little vague. I have the system in place. My problem is I don't have the money to give it that professional feel that makes buyers more comfortable. Things like auto responders, good squeeze and sales pages, graphics and covers, etc. Basically how to cheaply (free is better) set up a system to sell info products that looks and feels legit.

      Thanks for the input. I am legitimate and my claims are real and will be documented. There is more to weight loss than calories in and out. Don't turn science into a religion. There are people making new discoveries daily.

        Hi Michael,

        Since people seem more interested in telling you what you can't do, I thought I might help you out in a more direct way...

        I made up a new cover you can use. It was a very quick job, so it's far from world class but, having done a bit of snooping and, having found your current cover, I hope you won't mind me saying it is, at least a huge improvement on that.

        I have attached 2 copies of the cover to this post (you should see them below). They are in 2 different .zip files which you should be able to download simply by clicking on them.

        One of them is in PNG format, which means you can play around with it on image software if you wish. For example, it has a transparent background, so you can add in your own in various colours, etc. If you don't have access to Photoshop, search for a program called GIMP. It's free and, despite the objections of purists, is just as good as Photoshop for most everyday stuff. Alternatively, you could do the same thing using an online program like Splashup, which is also free to use (I think ).

        The other .zip containg a .jpg image, which is ready to go right away, if you want to use it as is. It's quite big (1673 X 2152 pixels), but you could resize it using a program mentioned above or control the size on the page. Alternatively, if you are familiar with html, you can control the size (as displayed on a browser) with the <img> tag (though, IMO, that's not usually the best course of action with large images).

        I also found your website. I didn't have time to look too closely at it, but I will say that, in my opinion (if you are inclined to accept it), your should immediately change your font. If it was me, I'd use 12pt Arial.

        Also, I don't know if many will still do it (I've seen a few throw hissy fits when people ask), but you could ask the copywriters that hang out in the Copywriting subforum to give some tips on restructuring your copy. I think you probably need some help in that area of things.

        Anyway, hope this helps.

        Tommy.

          ATV King, you are wrong. I and many others like me have fat loss and gain experiences that defy conventional wisdom of calories in/out. I used an electronic fat analysis tool during my experiments. Weight loss in and of itself does not impress me. You can lose 10 lbs. of weight in a day sweating. Everyone knows this. That is why I specifically stated that fat is what I lost. To be more specific, the bad, abnormal fat known as adipose tissue. Do not turn scientific discovery into religious dogma. Physics said it was impossible to fly 200 human beings thousands of feet in the air in a metal box powered by dinosaur juice, that is before the first passenger plane was invented. Do not be surprised that incredible breakthroughs come with no fanfare. The big ones never do. They actually come to acceptance after violent opposition, which I am getting. When I prove my claims with video, people will say I am a special effects, make up or cgi genius, even with the proof in their face! In the words of Yoda, " You must unlearn what you have learned".

            Thomas, thank you so much. These are the exact types of tips I was looking for. The criticism is more than welcome. Any simple suggestions. Like I said, I know what to do, but not how to do it RIGHT. I welcome ANYTHING that will help me improve. I am not easily offended, even by doubters. We will be in touch.

            You mean that you have a system that, somehow, cancels out the first law of thermodynamics?

              Exactly, it's like somebody saying " For the last year everyday I have ate my exact maintainance calories. But I've still put on 50lbs!"

              Research has proven time and time again that calories in vs calories out will result in no eight gain or loss. Unless of course you put AAS in the equation

                I don't know what this method entails, however:

                A note from Wikipedia:

                "Attempts to simulate this process pharmacologically have so far been unsuccessful (even lethal[29][30]). Techniques to manipulate the differentiation of "brown fat" could become a mechanism for weight loss therapy in the future, ...Until recently, it was thought that brown adipose tissue was primarily limited to infants in humans, but new evidence has now overturned that belief."

                Adipose tissue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

                So what this shows is that we all must take great care in saying that one thing or another is not possible just because it is not known or held by consensus (which a lot of science is). New discoveries are had everyday and according to this reference, there are still a few great discoveries to be had in this field.

                Pluto WAS a planet - now it isn't. And then in a few decades or in a hundred, it may be considered a planet once again.

                Everything doesn't work for everybody. This is a given. There is no one size fits all.

                Simply, if this OP lost the pounds IN FAT he claims, then whatever he did to achieve it "CAN" help somebody else - not "everybody" else (in the general sense - because not everyone follows instructions the same way and every person's body and situation is different). I think we all can agree with that.

                  Thanks, professorrosado. I am not a scientist. I did not "invent" my method, but I used a scientific process to refine it to the results that I have achieved and shared. I will get more opposition and insult as all pioneers do when they turn conventional wisdom on its head and reveal "facts" to be only opinions. It is troubling to see people in this business who witness innovative breakthroughs almost daily to be certain of what is possible. Intelligence is shown by the questions you ask, not the answers you think you have. Authentic skeptics would pick me apart with the right questions if I was a fraud, but they don't ask. They just spread misinformation designed to enrich the few at the expense of the masses. makes me think my coming activity has some competitors scared, AND THEY SHOULD BE. I will expose the myths that robbed me of YEARS of joy and self confidence for what they are. Calorie counting on its own is the WORST way to lose fat and the people who push it the hardest KNOW this. It is designed to be slow and make you give up so that you are a literal cash cow for multiple industries, probably for life. It is ok. The videos are coming. YOU WILL EAT YOUR WORDS :-) or deny your own eyes. One of the two WILL happen. Just watch.

                  Thomas, I will not do one or the other. I plan to do both. My inexperience causes me not to know what to do in what order. I end up jumping around. I feel offering the product as an affiliate etc. will enhance the information product and vice versa. If you try to lose fat at a similar pace to my experience, unless you know something I don't, you will fail miserably. I am developing relationships so that when it is ready, people will be watching and when they toss out the shock of seeing something never seen before by most, they will flock to buy. Seeing is believing. Of course there will be doubters. There are still people who think that Irag had WMD's, the earth is flat, and that Elvis is a human ambassador to alien civilizations and will return to earth. You can't change everyone's minds, but you can get their attention.

                  That's the last defending I will do until I go live with the method. I just want to see what you guys come up with AFTER you see I am genuine and thorough. It was Cgi or make up or he modified the fat analyzer or he found a way to fake the proof of times or, or, or, or, or. It will be fun watching people deny their own minds and intelligence to protect the status quo. All you people holding your opinions to see what happens, thank you for being open minded and truly scientific.

                  Oh, one last thing. I am aware of the law of thermodynamics. However most every law of physics has a superceding law. The law of gravity used to seem infallible. Most people thought objects flew by brute force (throwing a ball) or magic (birds). Then the law of lift was discovered and gravity was not so tough. This is the same thing. I perform a specific activity a specific way that put my results off the charts. I analyzed the calories in/out and the results do not mesh. Fluid and muscle loss did not account for this. I tested specifically for this because the first time, I could not even believe my own eyes. I tried to explain it away like you guys do but there was no adequate answer. I still cannot explain WHY that part of it works. Just think if you ate 2,500 calories of fresh fruits and vegetables and someone else ate 2,500 calories of snicker bars. Would you look the same? Not a snowball's chance.Because there is much more complex activity going on than just a calorie being a calorie.

        Vikuna, I don't think you got my post. I was a little vague. I have the system in place. My problem is I don't have the money to give it that professional feel that makes buyers more comfortable.

        Thanks for the input. I am legitimate and my claims are real and will be documented. There is more to weight loss than calories in and out. Don't turn science into a religion. There are people making new discoveries daily.

        I am not wrong. You might have lost 30lbs but I can guarantee that 10lbs were fat, 10lbs were water and the other 10lbs muscle.

        Losing a pound of adipose tissue ( What fat really is ) a day is impossible by all means.

        I have participated in a couple of bodybuilding shows. To go out on stage you need to have a unbelieveably low body fat percentage. Like 5-6%, this takes 2-3 months of intense dieting and training. Do you not think if we could just melt 30lbs of fat away in 30 days we would just do that?

        You did not lose 30lbs of adipose tissue ( FAT ) in 30 days. I'm not saying you didn't lose 30lbs but you never lost 30lbs of fat.

    There are laws about how many pounds of fat you can claim to lose in your advertising. I believe it's something like 2lbs/week. Don't do something stupid like running around making a 30lbs in 30 days claim.

    Learn as much as you can on each free traffic source you come across and then take action, for example learn how to rank a youtube video (can be pictures of your before and after). Then search for keywords that get lots of searches on youtube and see how things go.

      Your claims sounds way off but that's another issue. Why not join some FAT forums and peak people's interest and by doing that, build your list of people who wants to loose weight? Use Mailchimp as your free autoresponder to start out and build it from there, best of luck,

      Claiming something and showing proof are two different things.

      The law concerns claiming, as in advertising and marketing. If he can provide documented evidence (signed off by a medical professional), then he can speak the truth of "HIS OWN" experiences.

      However, you must add a disclaimer that includes something along the line, "these results are unique to my experience and may or may not be duplicated by anyone else or elsewhere". You need a lawyer to check your ad before you publish it and provide address where people can request the written documents. Check on line at the U.S. FTC to check on all the regulations you need to be aware of! Other than that - Succeed!

      Thanks Randall. I have that though. What I am looking for is more about how to do this not what to do. What I mean is doing it RIGHT. I have a website. I have a youtube and facebook etc. What I am looking for is how to get quality tools for cheap or free trial to make everything look good. For example, my ebook cover is extra mediocre. I cannot currently pay to do it right. This goes for sales and squeeze pages, autoresponders, etc. I think I am close to solving many of them but I hoped to start conversations here to get as much free info as possible. I will buy many products from many members here, so I don't need all the top secrets. Just some tips for a broke newbie who has a system in place for an INCREDIBLE information product who wants to do it right. I will be showing my appreciation with recipricol purchases, testimonials, etc for anyone who can help me. Thanks.

          Thanks, professorrosado These links are the kinds of things I need. I will get with you asap about the software and exactly what you need from me.

          Michael Tracy, I completely agree. When you are losing the weight so fast, you are just stoked about the awesome results and how great you feel (I was anyway). You really don't realize what kind of cash machine you have and with solid documentation you can get TONS of sales. That's why I made the decision to gain the weight back this past year. What I am about to do will shake up the weight loss industry. MARK MY WORDS lol.

          xxxJamesxxx, you are right. Nothing is 100%. My method will work for the majority of people WHO ACTUALLY DO IT RIGHT! I give everything you need to know to make the right choices. My method goes directly at the physiological source of obesity. It has been identified and covered up (the true root of obesity, that is) because the solution is too cheap, effective, and relatively easy to stick to because of the results and the way it makes you feel. I even address the psychological issues. If a person does not succeed with my method they: A. Have a rare medical condition that I am unaware of. B. Don't do it right they way I emphasize from the begining. It is simple but must not be changed unless you choose to experiment as I did to see where you have wiggle room. There is not much wiggle room but my experiments show where and how certain changes will affect results. It is hard to fail when you go after the root of an issue, and not just the symptoms as most do.

            Cancer patients who are on chemo therapy can lose one pound of body weight, not fat, per day.
            30 pounds of FAT in 30 days is like claiming you will gain 30lb of muscle in 30 days.

            Its simple physics. One pound of fat has 3500Kcal you would have to jog for 6 hours every day, and not eat, for 30 days.

            Even on 2.4-Dinitropherol (DNP a detonating compound for TNT) you would not manage to burn a pound of fat while risking your life with the DNP.

            Even if you took ECA+DNP+Growth Hormone like the pro body builders do you still would not be able to burn a pound of fat per day.

            Even with experimental stuff like PGCL (a few days of PGCL is like being 6 months on Growth Hormone!!!!) you can not burn a pound of fat per day. You literally pass fat out of your butt with this compound that is sold only on the black market and has no medical use and nobody knows who made it. Only men can use it. Its practically deadly to women.

            Ive seen men lose 10lb in 2-3 days with diuretics and carb depletion but this is not fat loss, one molecule of fat binds 2 molecules of water, water loss is not fat loss. When you re-hydrate again you get all the water back.

    Sorry I have to disagree since, in the past, I lost just over 60lbs in 2 months.

    This was on a special diet given to me by a registered dietician. In addition to the type of food I was to eat I had to have 6 meals/day... This in contrast to my lifelong habit of eating once/day

    My only regret is I didn't take before and after pictures.

    It's all very well you've lost weight but what works for you necessarily might not work for other people.

    Another thing:

    I note you said you're using Payloadz which seems to be $14.95/month.

    If tight on money, here's what I would do (assuming I didn't know how to initiate automating downloads/deliveries myself):

    1. Cancel the account with Payloadz, and open an account with e-junkie.com instead. Cost = $5/month, saving you $10/month.

    2. I would then use that $10 to get a .com domain (I HIGHLY recommend Namecheap.com for domain registrations) and ditch the .webs domian currently being used. (However, if you didn't have money to host the .com yourself, I THINK you can have your own URL redirect to an existing .webs domain, meaning you can still use Webs, but market youyrself using www.yourdomain.com (which looks a hell of alot more creidble), instead of using www.yourdoman.webs.com.)

    Also, I do remember someone posted a coupon for e-junkie here a while back that gave several MONTHS of free usuage with them. If you do a search for it, it's worth trying to see if it's still active. That way, you can even defer the $5/month cost until way down the road too.

    Tommy.

    Michael,

    Just one more random thought: on your webpage, where you refer to something that is "less than $100" - it's not clear if that is part of your solution, or a separate (physical?) product, or something else.

    If it's something that the user buys, perhaps that would present a better avenue to approach things from. The market for weight loss information products is very crowded indeed but, if there's a (real world) product involved, a alternative (and potentially easier) approach might be acting as a dealer/reseller/affiliate for whatever it is, with the incentive to buy through you being disclosure of how you used it to achieve your results (assuming how you did so is not obvious from the product itself)?

    Hope that makes sense! (If I'm wrong about it being something separate to your solution, then it probably doesn't)

    Tommy.

    That's really awesome. Not only have you learned how to lose weight very quickly, you've also got yourself the content for a killer product!

    As great as your product looks like it will turn out to be, just keep in mind that your salespage is everything. The TruthAboutAbs guy comes to mind. I forget his name, but he originally released that product as a total dud. Instead of giving up, he made a few tweaks to his salespage and managed to pull in 10K that year. But, he didn't stop there. He kept on split testing and changing thing, and now he's made over 10 million dollars with that single product.

    So don't just stop at creating a great product, start that salespage split-testing!

    Ok all conversation aside, back to your point of how do you get your message out. Thinking what would amaze me and make me want to press the buy now button (if I was overweight) would be a time-lapse video.

    You're stood there in your underwear 4 times per day while a picture is taken. Over the space of a month you have 120 pictures. Batch them up with something basic like windows movie maker and cut the length down to 30 seconds (4 frames per second) and you have a substantial time-lapse video on your hands which is highly brandable and potentially viral.

    Post it on Youtube and link into it from health forums, fitness blogs etc.

    I would capture your visitors wth an opt-in and sell your personal training for $500 a time.

The variety of topics is overwhelming and I am learning much very quickly. I have been sidetracked from my primary purpose because there is so much useful info at every turn.


    I am a former electronic salesman from Central Florida. Family illnesses forced me to put that career on hold. I had to find a way to make a home based income. After years of digging only to find failure and false promises, I finally see the light. This can work big!

    Here's the deal. I have no money. I mean NO MONEY lol. That will change quickly, however. I lost over 30 lbs. of fat in a month. I have experimented with this and can create results of as much as five lbs. of fat in a day. This is absolutely true.

    What I need to know are the cheapest ways to get the message out. I know what to do basically. But I cant afford to buy ebook cover designs, autoresponders, etc. I currently have a simple website with a sales video and link to download the ebook via payloadz. I need to know the most effective and cheap (free is even better) for squeeze pages, sales pages, autoresponders, etc.


    I have generated a small amount of traffic with Youtube and Facebook but am implementing strategies to grow. Everything is set up to sell. I just need to make it more professional looking until I can sell enough to do this right. Can anyone help? I am willing to barter my expertise for any assistance. Thanks everyone for reading this.
    I will tell you one thing as an avid bodybuilder for the last 8 years I go OUT OF MY WAY to avoid diet fads such as these. They are always useless and almost never offer anything except one persons unique experiences with losing weight.

    I have also realized it is almost never about the method, and always about the motivation level of the person you're trying to market too. It does not matter how good your method is, if you can not motivate people to actually WANT to engage and use it, noone will. Being as though you're target audience is essentially fat people, that is the problem, and thats why these diet fads usually never work.

    A while ago I developed a sound diet plan and guess who I didn't target? Fat people. I actually targeted people who were already in shape. And people who are already in shape don't like diet fads like this. They like real legitimate diet advice most of the time. Give them tools to measure foods, measure calories, information about how the body works at different times of the day, and sell it to a market that actually has the motivation to use the product. Fat people won't, thats who you are targeting. Because anyone in shape is not going to care about losing 30lbs of fat they will care more about a diet plan. When you market exercise regimens to fat people, I usually think its a recipe for failure. Not even sure if thats 100% what you're doing. But just consider some things I have said.

      It is useful posts like this that make me not feel so bad when I spend a little too much time on the Warrior Forum.

      I happen to be one of those in shape people that likes to buy real and usable tools. I am definitely on board with everything you have said.

      OP, I hope that you have been able to take the valuable advice in the post and create some next action steps.

      If I were you, I would just get a name for myself in a forum community related to being slim and try and focus on that. If you PM me, I have something free (no opt-in or anything required on your part) that might be able to help you out.

        If he joins any weight loss community and tells them he lost 30 lbs of fat in 30 days, he will certainly get a name for himself.

        His best bet at making money in a squeeze page, aimed at desperate people who are not members of a community.

          Haha, that's definitely true. I should have more specific with that advice: join a community and become a valuable part of it if you want to build an authority site in the near future.

          Go with the squeeze page for the desperate folk, otherwise.

          I tend to forget not everyone wants to create massive authority sites.
