[WVZ Alert] The end is near...
This week's 'WebVideoZone.com Alert' from the
desk of Joe Chapuis @ www.WebVideoZone.com
- February 21, 2007
=========================================================== Greetings, my friend... The ice is finally starting to thaw, the birds are singing,
and the squirrels are raiding and destroying my bird feeders. This can only mean one thing... I have almost made it through another New England winter.
Ok - we've still got a month to go (so I guess that makes me
an optimist). But Spring is definitely in the air. And it's not just the pending relief from the near-debilitating
winter blues (a.k.a. Seasonal Affective Disorder - yes, it's SAD)
that's got me feeling as giddy as a schoolgirl right now.
No, I'm also thinking about Springtime in Chicago. Ok, I know it isn't Paris. But it is the setting for
Ken McCarthy's annual System Seminar. This is a sort of Mecca
for internet marketers, entrepreneurs, and small business owners
who want to learn directly from some of the sharpest and most
successful internet business minds on the planet. Ken and I have been friends for a few years. I co-presented
the web video presentation with him at last year's System 2006,
and I'll be the "main" web video faculty member at this year's
System Seminar 2007 from April 27-29. Ken's a great guy and really knows his stuff. He also has a
knack for rounding up the best and the brightest for his annual
event (yes, despite this, he still invited me to speak). For example, here are just a few of the big names who will be
presenting at System 2007: - John Carlton - One of the best copywriters alive
(I'd pay to see him if I wasn't invited to speak) - Brad Fallon - Ecommerce and SEO expert
(Spoke last year, blew me away) - Lloyd Irvin - Info-marketer extraordinaire
(Amaaaazing success story) - Perry Marshall - Internet marketing expert
(And world-renowned Google AdSense wizard) - Dave Taylor - Blogging for business guru
(We had lunch together last year. A really interesting
and successful guy who doesn't return my emails.) Sign-up here to subscribe to Ken's announcement list to be
notified about the teleseminars he's doing with his faculty
members this year:
http://webvideozone.com/System-Seminar-2007-teleseminars.html In addition to being free to listen to, his interviews can be
quite enlightening and informative. Ken interviewed me on the
phone yesterday. He was down in New Orleans for Mardi Gras.
Says it was a business trip. I'm in the wrong business. Anyway... the interview was a lot of fun. Be sure to subscribe
to his email list to be notified when this and the other
interviews become available online. And if you make it to Chicago, please be sure to hunt me
down and say hello... =========================================================== What's new in the Zone... =========================================================== - How to upload a video to YouTube...

Something to think about... =========================================================== "People ask me what I do in winter when there's
no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out
