Hello, Pat! I was going to unveil my new Halloween music video on my own blog, but in honor of your new social network I've decided to post it here first. (It's down below.)There's a mystery in my video. See if you can figure out which one of the zombies reads The Internet Wizards Magazine. (Hint--it's the one with BRAINS!) You can pick up your own Halloween edition of The Internet Wizards Magazine free at http://www.theinternetwizards.com

Of course, you have this advantage: television commercials are expensive and quickly become ineffective. Blog posting is free and remain on the internet forever, always ready to deliver your message anytime someone runs a search for your keywords.! My best keywords, for instance, are "product creation" and "marketing advice" and "The Internet Wizards Magazine." By putting those key words in this blog post, I've instantly put another ad for myself out onto the internet, where it will run forever, at no cost to me , drawing in subscribers to my free magazine.
And that's how blog marketing is done!
thank you!!

Never heard of a Zombie Walk? Well, how many times have you watched a zombie movie and said to yourself, “Boy, I wish I could be a movie zombie!”
Zombie Walks are nothing more than that—a day and a place where people can dress up and walk around like zombies—just like in the movies! They’re usually held in malls or downtown areas, and I’ve seen them in cities from Boston and San Francisco to Austin.
You asked if I have any tips for new marketers. I do. I have a big one. The most important one. The Greeks made up this tip for internet marketers 2000 years ago and wrote it above the door to the Parthenon, so we would find it now and follow it.
The tip is, “Know Thyself.”
To be safe on the internet, to be savvy, to be sure of finding your way to the best opportunity for you--know yourself. Know your strengths as well as your weaknesses. Know what you can do well and what you will need hired help to do. And know, most of all, the purpose of your life and the passions that drive you. Because in between purpose and passion is where you will find the power point of your life, and the place where you will be most effective on the internet.
The best opportunity for you is always the one that draws on your strengths. The more you can use what you already know, the better it is for you. Even though you’re a newbie on the net, when you work from your strengths, you’ll be grounded in your own most powerful position. You won’t be swayed by every email screaming for your attention. And as for con artists—you’re more likely to see them coming.
So, how do you get to know yourself? Do this. Make a list of everything you have inside you; every skill, every talent, every interest, every passion. What you want to create is a list of your STRENGTHS.
From now on, every single time you consider getting involved in anything on the internet, look at your list and ask yourself,: “Does this draw on my strengths? Does it make good use of my life experience?”
If the answer is no, turn away. There’s a kazillion opportunities on the internet. This is not the one for you.
If the answer is yes, dig deeper. Do some research. Find out as much as you can about anything before you invest your time and money. There are a kazillion opportunities on the internet. Like city busses, another one comes along every few minutes. You won’t miss out on anything life-altering by taking time to educate yourself before you grab one and go for a ride.
