  • Iamnameless has been a huge help, always love his posts. Also the fact that he is never trying to sell anything on here and just giving helpful advice.
  • There's to many to post here....I can't pick just one.

    Over the last few years, I've been in different stages of my business and there's always been one or two Warriors that have really stepped up to help me out.

    I owe a lot to this place!

    • Hey SDOT I just signed up for your free WSO, but I was not taken to a download link and it was never sent to my email. FYI.
      • [1] reply
  • There are bunch of good offline warriors here, but they're no match to me. I am the best offline warrior here so i chose myself. Hey fellas out there, chose me.
  • I was a long time warrior forum user but my account got hacked and i had to make a new one so my personal favourite was a fair bit more active a while ago but has just started getting active again John Durham, and Jason Kanigan is also a favourite of mine.

    • Bob Ross

      I haven't worked a J.O.B. since I bought his WSO entitled: "Instant $5,000/month OFFLINE."

      big thumbs up.
      • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • Claude, Nameless, and John are always at the top of my favorites.
    • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • Jack Mize, look him up
  • Oops, i see no other vote in favor for me yet. I'll just wait till all votes are casts, so hopeful that i will rank 1st overall for offline marketing.
  • Hands down I would say Lee Cole. I got my "real" start in offline marketing when I bought his V2 Method and I haven't looked back sense. I owe him for that product

    Thanks again Lee. I guess I should thank AJ as well!

    • Great question Nick.

      Easy to answer - it has to be Andrew Cavanagh. He has a wealth of experience and is very willing to share to help others.

      Other Warriors I'd like to mention whose advice or products have especially helped me are...

      Jack Mize.
      The 2 RockStars.
      David Cisneros.
      Don Campbell (Expand2Web)
      Jo Pixelcrafter
      Drew Laughlin
      John Durham
      Claude Whitacre
      Jason Kanigan
      Nameless
      Brash Impact

      and....I almost forgot - a special thanks to Wendy Garrett for her amazing PLR magazine IMG (Internet Marketing Guide). The best $7 I spend each month on a WSO. Not only a great read, but I can sell or give it away to my offline prospects and clients for extra leads and credibility!

      Many Warriors I haven't mentioned, but I've received priceless advice over the last 2 or 3 years - so a huge thank you.
      • [ 2 ] Thanks

  • I want to mention 2 names although there are heaps more.
    Mark Andrews and Tiffany Dow.
    Both are invaluable to this forum and personally in different ways.
    • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • For me, it's Jason Kanigan for his incredible wisdom.
    • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • For me, It's Iamnameless
  • Adrian Browning
  • cool, thanks guys and keep 'em comin!

    I've updated the thread with the allstar list so far (see OP)
    • [1] reply
    • Haha mate, Adrian browning was me being sarcastic, please remove from the list
      • [1] reply
  • There are a few listed above I don't know, but agree with the ones who have been listed so far.

    I would definitely add misterme, eperkins153, Aaron Doud, RedShifted, David Miller, ewenmack, mwind, and many others who know their !@#?
    • [ 2 ] Thanks
  • Don't forget misterme with the Bogart pic. That guy knows his offline stuff too.

    Claude has made an amazing contribution since his arrival.

    Thanks everyone who included me on their list. Sometimes I wonder if what I give away goes into an uncaring black hole, so your appreciation matters.
    • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • who is tiffany dow? I see her name favorably mentioned here and there
  • I think one thing this thread has pointed out (besides me forgetting to mention a few that I love) is that this board contains massive value.

    The percentage of people on this board that you can trust and who are making money (freelancing, employee, or business owner) is huge. You can spend a lot of time on other forums and listen to a lot of people who talk a good game. But here you get to listen to people who are really out there doing it.

    Wouldn't be surprised if some of those we mentioned are pulling 7 figures. The difference is on this forum people don't boast about how much they made (and those are almost always inflated). They get respect from the knowledge they hand out for free. We don't need to see their bank accounts because we can tell by their advice that they know what they are talking about.

    You don't get that a lot on "making money" forums. We are very lucky to have that. I know personally I can ask any question and I will get real world advice from multiple quality sources.
    • [ 1 ] Thanks

    • Haha, I missed the joke. Care to enlighten me?

      Tiffany has been around here a looong time. She's synonymous with PLR material and straight up IM training without the hype. A good cat, by all accounts.

      I agree. Also, the copywriting forum is laced with big earners, and a different breed, much like the offliners.

      It's a crazy forum overall. All these different "rooms" and with such a different atmosphere and demographic in each.

      Most people stay in the main forum and IMO, that's probably not a bad thing
      • [ 2 ] Thanks
  • In no particular order....

    Bob Ross
    Ewen Mack
    Claude Whitacre

    • Hi Nick,

      In your Allstar list (OP) you forgot to also include Andrew Cavanagh, and Wendy Garrett as per my last post.

      (For warriors who have never heard of Wendy Garrett - she is the creator of the PLR magazine we can give (or sell) to our prospects & clients for building instant credibility and getting them to use us for their IM requirements. http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...ial-media.html

      (BTW, I'm not an affiliate - just a very grateful customer )
  • Warrior Ben should be added to the list been awhile since he has been in this section.
  • Should probably mention Willie Crawford.

    He was teaching offline methods even before I
    started talking about them here.

    Kindest regards,
    Andrew Cavanagh

    • Thanks Nick, sorry I haven't posted, its just that there are alot of great Warriors. I appreciate your sentiments my friend.

      You arent too bad yourself!

      Andrew (above) is really the guy that got it all started IMO. Although there are other teachers , he is the grandfather of the WF "Offline" BOOM! That isnt really arguable, I dont think. He himself may be the only one who wouldnt give him credit for that. We all owe him alot, even though some newbies dont know it.

      Ken Michaels is the most brilliant offline marketer I know of. I cant say enough about him, he is one of those guys that you might not have any idea how brilliant he actually is, because he doesn't let on publicly. What Ken thinks of as failure, for most people would be considered unbelievable success!

      He is also the most brilliant at warm lead generation that I know of, and has SEVERAL systems for it that are AMAZING!

      Personally I like SDentrepreneur's posts alot too.

      There are a whole slew of them for sure.

      -John

      Ps. John Bowers isnt a warrior, but he is the greatest offliner I have ever known, he never even leaves his desk, isnt a salesman, nor a webdesigner. He is just great at delegation and had a great business plan.

      I really admire great delegators. His best talent is managing managers. He runs two huge call centers, never leaves his desk. People just come to it when he calls, and he tells him what he wants, and they go out and make the salespeople do it. lol

      They recruit, they train, they write pitches. All he does is say "Make it work, or I will find someone who can", but he's really good at doing that.
      • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • @Claude - always golden

    Have to add the real Dan McCoy - and not just because he has a cool name.

    Dan
    • [ 2 ] Thanks
  • Great list, and all are to be congratulated/thanked for their contributions here.

    Surprised no one mentioned David Preston. He's the one who originally sparked my interest in OM. Great guy BTW.

    These are in no particular order, just off the top of my head.
  • i like dr dan !!! very fresh style great value !!
  • @ Ken,

    I have heard that if nobody hates you, then you arent trying hard enough to be original....or something like that.
  • I have to say that recently I sit up and notice any post or thread with Claude Whitacre taking part.

    Seb
    • [ 3 ] Thanks
  • Although having said that, all results come from IDEAS.

    So, even though tested ideas get top priority, off the wall, untested ideas should carry some merit too.

    I think that's one of the biggest problems I see in the IM community. People throw away ideas and expect specific results, despite the fact that doing things the way everyone else does them seldom leaves you "above the cattle" as I like to say.

    Marketing is really all about trying new things, standing out, and engaging with people at the same time. So, whilst tested methods are obviously a "safe" bet, I think more people in this community need to put weight on the unknown...

    ... because it's the unknown that ultimately becomes "known" for making people rich.

    • I wholeheartedly agree Nick. Some things people suggest though are so far outside of principles that they clearly arent in the ballpark... for instance, it doesnt take much to understand that a square wheel wont roll... a collapsible round one is a fresh idea that might work, but a square one clearly wont and that isnt hard to critisize and say "'Man you are waaay to far out of the ballpark".

      However in keeping with your words, which are true, here I will give you Og Mandino's... and it will confirm what you are saying.

      "Experience is comparable to fashion, an idea that worked yesterday will be completely unthinkable to tomorrow. Trends come and go, only principles endure. Furthermore the VALUE of experience diminishes with the time it takes to acquire her special wisdom, the end finds it wasted on dead men...

      The value of experienced is usually quoted by old men who nod wisely and speak stupidly....

      Not having the value of experience, shall I succeed? I have already stumbled in ignorance and fallen into pools of self pity... and the ignorant deeds of my past already loom to jeaopardize my future...

      I will succeed in only one way...

      Hence I will walk on, unencumbered, in the presence of all men with neither the handicapp of meaningless experience, nor the weight of unnecessary knowledge... I will simply persist, and I will succeed".

      The above quote probably isnt that accurate, I use to have the whole book memorized , but now I quote it less than accurately.

      Back when I was younger I used it to challenge all the old men nodding wisely and speaking stupidly (lol) saying I had to rebuttal three times on every call...and I persisted and hit my quoted without doing it.

      In any event,

      Persistence, and fire in the "belly", as they say, trumps experience every time. Trends come and go...Just remember that the basic "principles", such as "Square wheels dont roll", endure and never change.

      When I see a square wheel I call it out, because my experience see's the principle behind it...but Im all about new ideas.

      Heck, teach me some! (Actually you already have taught me some).

  • When i grow up, I want to be a diplomat ...
  • Great mentions so far! Definitely a Bob Ross fan . I would let
    that guy date my sister lol!

    Although not mentioned on the list
    OP had, I think an honorable mention is Sdotspells.

    I appreciate all of their contributions to this great community and I know ten's of thousands
    of warriors feel the same.

    Cheers,
    Sam
