A lot of you know about the 30 day challenge right? Free Internet Marketing video-driven education for beginners and pros alike? I think it was a no brainer to take part in it and it's not too late btw.
Either way...is it really free? These are just guesses here and I hope not to offend anyone...and it may even be a case where you say..."yeah duh we knew that!"...
Yes..the 30DC is free and technically it is a "promotion free" zone...but ya know what? My opinion (and I stated it before)...gurubob provided free tips, why? He was pimping Market Samurai. Ed Dale and Dan Raine provided free tips, why? They were pimping The Immediate Edge. By joining you are on the mailing list to get you to eventually join The Immediate Edge. Again, just my opinion...and as some said..I live in la-la land. Oh...and I shouldn't call them "tips", it was more than that, it was brilliant education. Ed Dale and Dan Raine (and even gurubob)...provide easy to follow, entertaining step-by-step education. Amazing stuff.
So, instead of being bitter, and why should I be, that the 30DC was a pre-cursor to get you to join The Immediate Edge...I decided to join 
They sold me...which hurts the ego haha. But when they say they are providing info that you won't see taught on MMO blogs until a year from now, they aren't kidding...I'm so eager to tell people things that I learn that I should have had to sign a waiver...but perhaps there was something in the TOS that I didn't read.
Either way...I think you should check it out..It's free (actually a buck) to join right now and there is no commitment to go further than the 14 days. Cancel the PayPal recurring billing on the 13th day and you are safe.
I'm on Day 2 and I'm astonished. It's amazing. I vowed never to join a membership site after walking away from the Wealthy Affiliate...but I'm glad I did...
Anyway, if you sat through even one video of the 30DC you know that these are 2 cats you can trust and provide great content. And here's the clincher, believe it or not (not sure if I do lol) but there are only 25 spots left.
I'm sticking around long enough to "watch the new $10k a month project unfold". They are building a site from scratch and flipping it! Should be interesting.
Join now through my link. (cause I'm such a nice guy) If you hate it, I'll give you your dollar back

I’ve see a few of the videos on the 30DC. The last two I saw didn’t really woo me so I stopped them 10 minutes into the videos. However, I am excited to know that the immediate edge sounds promising. I’ve been thinking about the doing the trial.

Hi Keith,
I remember Ed saying in a 30DC video that for the month of August (the month of the 30 Day Challenge this year), it’s a “no-pitch zone” - but for the remaining 11 months of the year they would run the business like any business would be run - for profit.
But like you, I believe receiving a handful of promotional emails is an easy price to pay for the information that Ed, Dan and Rob dish out freely.
And, like you, I’m also an Immediate Edge member (have been for a while) - and think it has a fantastic wealth of information.
For newbies, I’d certainly recommend the 30DC. If you’re advanced in your internet marketing, click on Keith’s link to the Immediate Edge and at least take a look.

Hey thanks Brent…appreciate the input

Keith offering some constructive criticism here….pimping is either flat out promotion or dressing something up (as in “pimp my car”)
Offering free advice and generally being helpful without mentioning any product is usually because
a) nice people do that
b) building on an online reputation for knowing your stuff
and/or
c) developing an online reputation if one is not already there.
The guys from 30DC and IE are A and B.
If people get to know and trust your advice they are more likely to follow and buy from you.
So as you can see, using the incorrect terminology (such as pimping when there was no pimping) can cause people to wonder whether you are being deliberately nasty, creating unnecessary controversy, or a n00b that doesn’t quite understand what he is saying. Either way, it doesn’t bode well for YOUR online reputation.
Keep that in mind when writing, context is EVERYTHING.

Good stuff man, it’s not a surprise at all. They keep it clean, and they almost got me on the immediate edge, but that’s just one more thing! lol.
I’m trying to dwindle stuff down and focus, but that one does look tasty

Allison, it’s funny you only come around when there’s something about the 30DC….and offer your “opinions”..
I’ll use any words I want…some words mean different things to different people…
Thanks for the extra content
September 24th, 2008 at 12:31 pm
Jump on it man….it’s worth a peek.
September 24th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Yeah, I wasn’t 100% sure I could take on anything more…I’ve been super busy but it was worth jumping in, especially for a dollar. It IS tasty. haha

I wish I could find more time to go through the whole 30 days. I looked at a few and liked what I saw though. The problem is there is just so much information!
September 28th, 2008 at 11:37 am
Hey man glad to hear the review. I clicked on the review The Edge link and it says for me to enter info so that I’m on the waiting list.
Did I miss the chance to get in? I’ll go through your link if I haven’t.
Thanks for the heads up.
I’m a good chunk through the 30 day challenge and the Edge sounds like a no brainer!
Thanks for the feedback.
September 28th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
Truthfully you could probably get through them all in just a few days. Skip pre-season…and just watch the youtube lessons…not the intro lesson for each training day…
I think it’s highly valuable and worth taking the time for. good luck
September 28th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
Hey Anthony…seems it must be filled…there were only a few spots left. Get on that waiting list! good luck
Thanks for leaving a comment

The shrewdest of shrewd bloggers like me join these things, get all the free info I can then just ignore any programs they try to sell.

haha, yeah lots of that going around…I’ve done my share…got my free copy of Optimize My Site…
