Ron Douglas - One AMAZING Warrior -225,000+ Subscribers

41 replies
Yesterday on my radio show I had the pleasure of
interviewing Ron Douglas. I've known Ron for
a number of years but his interview completely
blew me away because I didn't previous know all
of his accomplishments.

As a former moderator and someone who has been
around this forum FOREVER, I can tell you that you
have lots of amazing people here... many multi-
millionaire who just like dropping by and leaving
helpful tips... and you'd never know that they were
multi-millionaires because they don't talk about it.

YOu can, and should download the MP3 from my show
with Ron completely free, without jumping thorugh ANY
hoops at: http://BlogTalkRadio.com/WillieCrawford/

To give you an idea of the type of people who are
your fellow warriors, Ron:

- Has had the #1 selling ebook in his category on
Clickbank since 2003

- Has a mailing list of over 225,000

- Has sold over 60,000 ebooks and books

- Gets MILLIONS of hits per month to his websites

- Managed to get a TRADITIONAL publisher to notice
one of his books and publish it, offering him a HUGE
advance.

Ron also shares in his interview that many of the
good things that happened to him STARTED when he
went to a Warrior Gathering.

He also mentioned being inspired by an article that
I wrote, and that that was the catalyst for one of
his major projects.

Anyway, it was a very insightful interview. Ron
shared a LOT of what he is doing right in the
interview, and again, you can access it completely
free of charge, no opt-ins or any hoops to jump
thorough, here:

      Thanks for the interview link Willie.

      I also saw Ron on Fox news one morning talking about his recipe book and feeding the hosts some fried chicken. He did a great job and looked very at ease.

        Ron and I both have great fried chicken recipes.

        Ron is swinging by my birthday bash next month,
        so maybe we can even compare recipes, although
        I imagine the focus will be more on networking
        and joint ventures.

      Great interview Willie and Ron.

      That restaurant cookbook niche is great and is something I never would have thought of.

      *Ron*

      How do you work with two very young kids in the house? Your next niche should be time management because I'm sure you're a master at that know.

      Again...great interview.

      episode with Ron listed. At the bottom of that is a

      Ron and I drifted onto a lot of unplanned questions.

      Lots of great info there on networking and setting up
      joint ventures for example.

    I can hear it now...

    "Mike, you're kissing butt..."

    Anyway, I have known Willie for several years. Back in 2003, I sat in on a call between him and another marketer and was blown away even back then.

    In 2005 I met him in person for the first time. Had a drink or two at the hotel bar at an event in Denver. Great conversation.

    Willie was also my first teleseminar interview. He let me interview him for a product launch. But here's the amazing part of that...

    Willie wrote all the questions for me, sent me his bio, set up a web page to capture attendees for the teleseminar, used HIS teleseminar line to host the interview, had the audio edited, had the transcript written and designed.

    Now, talk about hands-free product creation

    He did it simply to help me out. Yup - big time guru helping out little ole nobody.

    Gracious, to say the least.

    I met Ron at my first Warrior Lunch back in 06. He was one of just ten people who attended. And here, 3 years later, we are about to launch what I believe will be a six-figure launch, and an over all seven-figure year because of it.

    Ron is also a gracious guy. More of an "under the radar" guru, but has forgotten more about marketing than some of us will ever know.

    Funny thing is, in working with Ron on our upcoming project, we discuss marketing strategies and he blows me away. Every time we talk.

    He has such an understanding of both his cooking niche AND the IM niche and he doesn't even know it. Or, he doesn't flaunt it.

    Between guys like Ron, Willie and so many other friends I have made in this business, you can't help but simply KNOW that you can not fail. They just won't let you.

    Which leads us back to what Willie said above...it's all about meeting people and creating relationships. Even going to a simple lunch.

    Which reminds me...time to plan my next Warrior Lunch

      this online marketing doesn't have to be complicated.

    I'm really speachless... (head down blushing).

    I was just happy that Willie gave me the opportunity to be on his esteemed show. I tried my best to make it worth his listener's time. His blog radio show is one of the best sources of free Internet Marketing content on the Net. While many others are just sending one pitch after the next, he takes the time to deliver awesome free content and insider secrets from marketers who are really succeeding online.

    Willie is really a great guy and I can't wait to thank him in person at his birthday bash in Orlando. If you listen to the call, you'll realize what a fantastic opportunity Willie's seminar is for under $200. Similar events could run you thousands. Plus it's a good reason to take the kids to Disney :-).

    Mike Ambrosio is another good dude and a highly underrated marketing expert. He has learned from the best and has more experience than many of the top names today. If you want a lesson on marketing, just check out how he sets his sites up to go viral. There is one in particular which I learned a lot from just by joining his list, but I don't want to spam the thread. Just Google his name and you'll probably find it.

    Ok, enough of the man love fest. This is just disgusting :-).

      I agree - and so won't talk about how much you inspire me, Ron.

      Or about how 90% of what Willie does to impact the world around
      him is sub-liminal, and most people won't ever know!

        Thank You and Willie for sharing it with us.

        P.S. Willie, You still owe me a site review,
        I can't wait till I have a site worthy enough to say:

          Hi Michael,

          I can't wait either.

          I use to do weekly site reviews on free networking
          and brainstorming calls. My schedule didn't permit
          me to do those regularly any more, and then the
          radio show became a better format.

          I am hosting an "open mike" call today though...
          at 4pm EST, where anyone with a pressing marketing
          question can call in and ask it.

          That call is Feb 27th, 4-5:30pm est with free
          registration at
          http://WillieCrawford.com/free-brainstorming-calls.html

          There will be a lot of Warriors on that call.

    Not to continue the love fest, but I can't say enough about both Ron and Willie. I enjoyed the interview yesterday.

    I have known Ron for about a year and a half and had the pleasure of doing a profitable JV with him last year and worked with him on another one of his projects. He gets it, period. He's learned what it takes to be successful online and has a great deal to share.

    Plus I had the pleasure of interviewing Willie for an upcoming product today. He was gracious, knowledgeable and gave freely. It was a fun, information filled hour that I enjoyed and know that others will learn when they get the opportunity.

    On the call Willie and I discussed his B-Day bash and he explained the level of networking and the joint venture opportunities that he was hoping would develop. Now I'm trying to arrange my schedule so I can make it to Willies B-Day bash and thank both men face to face. It definitely should be an awesome event worth 10 times what he's charging.

    I like that!

    Actionable information shared right on the call, and someone who
    listened and did it.

    Ron is one of those people who understands the power of sharing
    what he knows freely. He understand that knowledge truly grows
    exponentially, and he can't give too much... so he's very
    giving in that interview.

I absorb everything I can from him.

    This is interesting because a few years ago I was promoting a similar book from clickbank and I got a threatening letter from Todd W's publisher that the ebook I was linking to was in copyright infringement to their original, Top Secrets print book. I wrote to the clickbank publisher and they advised me to ignore it and they were in compliance. I would love to know if this has been an issue for Ron , because I would like again to promote something in this niche. Some webhosts get very antsy if threatened about these matters and I didn't want to risk it with mine.

      That's nonsense and some real foul competitive practices on his part. I've been selling my cookbooks since 2003, there is no issue at all. These are all my unique recipes. Wilbur is just a hater because he only gets like $2 per book and can't afford to pay affiliates, while I was self publishing and getting like $18 per book. I paid out hundreds of thousands to affiliates last year. The only issue is you can't use his trademark "Top Secret".

      Send me a PM if you have any further questions.

          Well I've been following Ron for years, but see that I need
          to keep a closer eye on him, hence he's already confirmed
          that he'll be attending my birthday bash next month.

          The last time that I was interviewed, and revealed HALF
          as much good stuff as Ron did, the free interview suddenly
          turned into a PAID product :-)
