Podcast: Jeanette Cates on Teleseminar Success
Jeanette Cates is officially known as the ‘Technology Tamer’ to new and experiences online marketers around the world. I first met Jeanette at Armand Morin’s Big Seminar in 2008, and we became fast friends. Soon I learned that she had been online since the very beginning, and that she has moved seamlessly between the corporate and entrepreneurial worlds for many years. I’ve had the opportunity to teach several online courses with Jeanette, as well as co-hosting five live events over the past few years. She is a pleasure to have as a business partner and made the entire process a joy to experience.
We discussed teleseminars during this interview, and this is an area Jeanette pioneered from the very beginning. I’ve been through her Teleseminar Basics Training, and can tell you that she teaches everything you need to get started with this profitable revenue stream. You could be hosting your own teleseminars, interviewing experts, and creating products within a few days of taking this course.
Podcast: Rachel Rofe on Outsourcing
Rachel Rofe (pronounced ro-FAY) is a brilliant young marketer with a background in retail sales. After deciding that she did not like working for others, she made the decision to come online in 2006 and has never looked back. Rachel quickly saw the benefits of having others help her in her business, something we refer to as outsourcing on the Internet.
Outsourcing her Kindle books is something Rachel has now become well known for, and I must admit that this course – Outsourcing Kindle Books – changed the way I now think about having other people help me in my online business. Rachel is adamant about sharing her knowledge in this area, and has books on Kindle that earn her several thousand dollars each month.
We discuss the review system on Amazon, training people to help you, and more on outsourcing to build your online business.

Podcast: Ray Edwards on Copywriting
To Ray Edwards, copywriting is ‘salesmanship in print’. Ray was the very first professional copywriter I ever met, and in this interview I ask him about how he got started in radio years ago, transitioned to writing web sales copy for some of the greatest names on the Internet today, and continues to be a dominant force in the world of copywriting.
Ray and his wife, Lynn, pictured with him at left, travel the country in their motor home on a regular basis. This lifestyle gives them the freedom to work from wherever they happen to be while also enjoying the beauty and the seasons. They also have two pugs who enjoy taking to the road with them.
You’ll also want to check out his latest book, Writing Riches, as well as his membership site of the same name. Ray has graciously given this special link to my community, and if you are interested in learning more about becoming a copywriter for hire or just writing better sales copy for your products and services, this may be exactly what you are looking for. My favorite part of this site is that Ray personally critiques one of the members’ sales letters each month, giving everyone an opportunity to improve their skills. I’m sure you will benefit greatly from our discussion here.

Lisa Suttora is an eCommerce expert. During the past ten years she has taught at eBay University a number of times, as well as teaching thousands of her own students how to source products and build a profitable business. She continues to be one of 34 eBay Certified Providers worldwide. This all came about because she wanted to stay home to raise her two young children.
