<p><strong>How the original Launch Jacker Became the Richest Man in the World.  <a href="http://5322ciqapl2k4xcjs7lhq9wn1l.hop.clickbank.net/">CLICK HERE FOR Launch Jacking</a><br />
</strong></p>
<p>It&#8217;s a pretty simple formula. Wouldn&#8217;t you know it, even I can understand it. This practice is so powerful, wars have been fought over it.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll tell you all about it in a second but first let me ask you one  question, and if your answer is yes, you will be well on your way to  making it in this world no matter what career you choose.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s the question- Can you pay attention to what&#8217;s working?</strong></p>
<p>OK listen up and stop drifting. Can you actually stop your head buzzing long enough to sift out the things that are NOT working and keep what IS working?</p>
<p>If so, you will make it in anything you do. If not, start practicing  mindfulness, awareness, and get in tune with what is actually happening.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s the secret to Launch Jacking. It&#8217;s also the exact formula  Warren Buffett used to become this Galaxy&#8217;s richest human being. Here it  is, laid out plain and simple-</p>
<p><strong>Find something that is already working and get as close to it as you can. Associate yourself with it. Own it, if possible.</strong></p>
<p>Look at a few of Warren Buffett&#8217;s businesses.</p>
<ul>
<li>Acme Brick,</li>
<li>Fruit of the Loom,</li>
<li>Benjamin Moore,</li>
<li>Helzberg Diamonds,</li>
<li>Geico ( yes Geico),</li>
<li>Dairy Queen,</li>
<li>and about 50 others.</li>
</ul>
<p>Get the idea?</p>
<p>They were all doing great BEFORE he came along. That&#8217;s why he came along! Get it Bunky?</p>
<p>Let somebody else figure it out, then you get in the positive flow down river.</p>
<p>Rick Rivera has a special talent for sniffing out money making ideas <em>that are working</em>. Then he grabs on and rides it all the way to the bank.</p>
<p>Warren Buffett called it &#8220;becoming a billionaire&#8221;.</p>
<p>Rick Rivera calls it &#8221; <a href="http://5322ciqapl2k4xcjs7lhq9wn1l.hop.clickbank.net">Launch Jacking</a>&#8220;.</p>
<p>I could go on and make this post longer for Google but why? It says it all. Now get busy.</p>
<p>Have a great day, folk music fans.</p>

<p><strong>Alright, alright&#8230; so I&#8217;m working late again on the Bring The Fresh bit, but it will be worth it. </strong> Think I&#8217;m lazy or something?</p>
<p>I&#8217;m onto a good one here&#8211; no really&#8211; this time I&#8217;ve uncovered the big one and just like yours truly, I&#8217;m gonna share some of it with you morons.</p>
<p>You ungrateful bastards don&#8217;t know what a days work is and it gets worse. Read on.</p>
<p><a href="http://onekw.bringfresh.hop.clickbank.net ">Bring the Fresh</a> is new , different and full of top notch SEO &#8211; marketing information. <strong>Like I need it, but I&#8217;m going the extra mile for yo</strong>u.</p>
<p><strong>Crazy Ernie&#8217;s Honest Review &#8211; What you get-</strong></p>
<p>Both Regular and Full Disclosure members get inside knowledge with over the shoulder videos.</p>
<p><strong>Keep up, I&#8217;m just tripping thru bullet points here-</strong></p>
<p>Full Disclosure members get a bunch of inside tricks of the trade that have been tested by others.</p>
<p>Plenty of discussion from forum members about how things work best.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Click the gal in the picture below to see if she turns and winks at you</span>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://onekw.bringfresh.hop.clickbank.net"><img src="http://www.bringthefresh.com/images/banners/468x60Ad.gif" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Lot&#8217;s of topics ranging from</p>
<ul>
<li>on page conversion,</li>
<li>the kinds of bonuses needed to make conversion a done deal,</li>
<li>and how to make giving bonuses most efficient.</li>
</ul>
<p>I saw a tidbit today on bonuses that added a nice take on list building as part of the process.( I had never thought of it that way, like you had?  Ha.)</p>
<p><strong>Ding Ding Ding! All over the place. I admit it, Ernie likes.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Good ideas for actual websites that will probably be profitable &#8211; Kelly and Mike explain and leave for the taking to us members. Eat your heart out.</p>
<p><strong>Interaction with Mike and Kell</strong>y.</p>
<p>How it is done from start to finish with real websites making</p>
<ul>
<li>good,</li>
<li>very good, and</li>
<li>very very good money.</li>
</ul>
<p>Pick the method you need for your available time, effort, and passion.</p>
<p>Some of the individual videos ( there are many) are worth the price alone. Seriously, I don&#8217;t want to sound like a sissy fanboy who has idealized these guys  and the BTF community but it&#8217;s true. Just one  of the videos could inspire a new career. There, you heard it from Ole Ernie first.</p>
<p>On any given lazy Sunday afternoon I will be watching dragnet reruns wearing my bermudas, and  looking  for information on the BTF forum and will find things that clear up a point or clarify some former confusion. That&#8217;s always good. Refreshing, like walking by Victoria&#8217;s Secret at the mall and they&#8217;ve finally got new window pictures. About damn time.</p>
<p><strong>Things  You Might Not Like- (Me with your Momma!  &#8211; just  a little humor Goofy , don&#8217;t get stupid on me.)<br />
</strong></p>
<p>You have to put in the time to get the information. Watch the videos. Read the forums, apply the information.</p>
<p>Sure, most of this stuff can be found on other websites but do you have time to reinvent the  wheel and compile it all? I didn&#8217;t think so. I consider it as outsourcing my education to the people who know. Speaking of outsourcing&#8211; BTF provides inside information on where to go to get the best outsourced work done. That&#8217;s valuable by itself. So maybe you can finally get your ass screwed on correctly.</p>
<p>This is a community with discussion.   It&#8217;s not all hand holding and singing &#8220;Kum ba yah&#8221;. But I&#8217;m sure if you request that, there will be a few creative answers from more than one smart SEO  :-&gt;</p>
<p>Web marketing changes so some of the methods get updated. &#8220;This works better now.&#8221; &#8221; That is a little slow lately.&#8221;  These changes are annoying  as hell but at least BTF talks about them.</p>
<p><strong>Real World Answers.</strong></p>
<p>Got a site and wonder if it&#8217;s any good or how to make it better? Bring it before the community, we&#8217;ll critique it and add value you&#8217;d have to otherwise pay an arm and leg to get.</p>
<p>Wonder if the latest weird thing you heard about SEO is true ? Ask.  The forum members will give an educated 2cents. And BTW&#8211; Mike and Kelly&#8217;s 2cents is worth a bunch of moola.</p>
<p>If you are serious about  SEO and marketing  you need the closest thing to magic that&#8217;s out there, the best information presented in a way you can use today.  So don&#8217;t bust on me if you ain&#8217;t cuttin it in the real world, you prissy folk music fans. Get what you need and do it now. That&#8217;s <a href="http://onekw.bringfresh.hop.clickbank.net ">Bring the Fresh</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s one way to improve a home&#8217;s value every time in <a href="http://www.landscapingcharlotte.net">landscaping Charlotte</a>.</p>
<p>Any home, any city and the value of landscaping cannot be denied. A beautification program</p>
<p>starts with a general assessment and gets more refined as details start to emerge.</p>
<p>First, look at what is already in place. A tree worth salvaging, shrubs that might be transplanted ( and survive).</p>
<p>See if there are some interesting rocks or flagstones available, partially buried or hidden behind bushes.</p>
<p>There could be some hidden treasures waiting for you to re-purpose and give new life.</p>
<p>Then consider local growing habits. What trees and shrubs do well in your area?</p>
<p>What&#8217;s natural? What &#8216;s novel and what is a sure thing? You want to bank on a few standards to be certain the basic design stands the test of time and weather.</p>
<p>You can actually landscape an entire yard free IF you have enough time. Growing from scratch can be done but for our purposes, we&#8217;ll assume you want to get started and finish as soon as possible.  Just remember that some easy pickings are always available if you&#8217;ve got the patience to wait a season or two to root your own seedlings and have a fresh batch ready to add to the yard each year.</p>
<p>If you want to go the conventional route, shop around to save on plants and shrubs. Check for diseases and local varieties to insure best planting.</p>
<p>Visit the county agricultural extension service to find out specifics on watering, seasonal growth and other important care instructions. You can find a world of information at your local extension office or a College  such as  UNC <a href="http://www.loobylandscaping.com">Charlotte for landscapers</a>, or University service.</p>
<p>If you are in it for the fun, relaxation and enjoyment, hire a professional to do the bulk of the work so you can take your time with a few rose bushes,  grape vines, or fig trees.</p>
<p>Landscaping always looks better than it feels. That&#8217;s why the pros ARE pros. <a href="http://www.LandscapingCharlotte.net">Charlotte Lanscapers</a> help to beautify the area and add value to homes, what about yours? Comments are open.</p>

<p>Give me an &#8216;ah ha&#8217; moment at the very beginning of your talk, speech, interview, blog post, lecture. Make me lean in for more right from the start.</p>
<p>Your first few words are everything. Don&#8217;t waste them with some traditional, boring  introduction.</p>
<p>Start with</p>
<ul>
<li>news,</li>
<li>self interest and</li>
<li>curiosity.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Hand me the Remote</strong></p>
<p>Remember when cable TV was young? The three big networks and Disney were good. Then, there were 32 other channels filled with awful content.</p>
<p>Slowly we  got HBO and a few other channels that worked.</p>
<p>Same idea. I can&#8217;t tell you how many blogs, podcasts, Wiki pages, TV interviews, YouTube interviews I wade through trying to get some decent content. It is abysmal.</p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s On.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>So I have waged war on intros.  Just my little personal  war to help clean up the slack.</p>
<p>There are a few really good blogs on the web that get right to the point. Frank Kern always does. Outspoken Media usually does.  Brian Clark and Aaron Wall are good. Pavlina seems to have joined the &#8216;agonizingly long post&#8217; school of thought. Most are a nightmare of wordiness.</p>
<p><strong>The Good, The True, and the Beautiful</strong></p>
<p>Larry King is the master of straight talk. Watch him and learn . No stammering or beating around the bush. No long, stupid intros. Larry just says it and waits for a response. Thank you , God.</p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;ll Be There for You&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Watch re-runs of &#8220;Friends&#8221;. The show starts with something good. A hook. Instant drama. Then the little Rembrandt&#8217;s jingle ( slightly too long but OK) then we&#8217;re back into the show. Yes! It can be done.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s Your assignment. </strong></p>
<p>Notice how many horrifying introductions there are on podcasts, blogposts, You Tube and the like. It is utterly amazing.</p>
<p>You don&#8217;t have to be a <a href="http://www.radioproducer.org">radio producer</a>, TV director or writer to notice these things. They are so obvious.</p>
<p>You can easily find yourself two minutes into the piece with nothing at all to hang your hat on.</p>
<p>Stop this. Count the hours the world is wasting with filler.</p>
<p><strong>No More. </strong></p>
<p>When you find such a ridiculous introduction with a random sponsor mention, a long bio of the guest, a scene setter, a list of what we are about to do ( yes, I am aware of the formula &#8211;&#8217; tell them what you are going to tell them&#8217;) leave a comment and link to this post.</p>
<p><strong>No intros. Just get to the good part. </strong></p>
<p>Frankly, I don&#8217;t know if I can ever click play on another podcast for fear that the next eight minutes of my life will be thrown into an abyss of idiotic credentials, bio experience, un-needed fluff about the topics&#8217; or guest&#8217;s past history, awards, &#8216;and he used to work for Google so he must be cool&#8217; sentiment. It&#8217;s like touching an electric fence. I am now neuro-linquistically programmed against content.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Presenting -<strong>The Untro. </strong> Just do it.<strong><br />
</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Professionals always get found out. That&#8217;s why we here at Ernie&#8217;s like to point out the pros to save you a little time.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.BrandonReevesAutoWorld.com">used car dealer people in Charlotte and Monroe </a>have found out about. So Brandon Reeves Auto World has been swamped. In North Carolaina, that can be a good thing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Suitable for Framing</strong></p>
<p>I have adopted the term &#8216;Hero&#8217;s Journey&#8217; to mean- small, helpless struggler overcomes odds and makes it to what we generally perceive as a better life.&#8217;</p>
<p>So, why does Americanized charity have to look like a swashbuckling glamorized version of itself. Picture Mother Teresa leaning down to cradle a child or old person. Just the right combination of strain and benevolence on her weathered face. That&#8217;s the picture we all seem to strive for when giving to charity.</p>
<p><strong>Heart Tugs</strong></p>
<p>Lately there seems to be a glut of third world country charity which I think is great but the silhouette has become a bit predictable. More important, the idea of charity has become stupid, meaning slow to catch on)</p>
<p><strong>Well, You Chose to be a Target, Seth<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Seth Godin, in &#8220;Linchpin&#8221;, implies that the minute money changes hands, your act of art ceases to be art.</p>
<p>If I am reading that correctly&#8211; I think it is  too black and white a sentiment.</p>
<p>Money and art can mingle just fine. If you give me two dollars for gas on my way to cover a mountain in pink canvass have I ruined the art moment?</p>
<p>If I get paid to offer art in any form have I crossed the line of &#8216;art purity&#8217; and dashed all hope of my gift being Christlike? Hell no.</p>
<p><strong>An Artist Simply Knows What to Frame</strong></p>
<p>Which brings me back to charity. Ken Wilber is more developed than most any American President. Giving the President an opportunity to bridge that gap would be the utmost in charity, far eclipsing that of the typical poses we see of third world country help. Why? Because to bridge that  gap  would mean more for the world&#8217;s potential. If our leaders were all at a firm Integral stage, the world&#8217;s table scraps would be closer to gourmet.</p>
<p>But that goes unperceived and the typical American and  developed European&#8217;s perceive charity as the hero&#8217;s journey it is not.</p>
<p><strong>Frame This</strong></p>
<p>What if all school teachers were suddenly at a high level of personal development? What if all business leaders transformed and woke up?</p>
<p>That&#8217;s charity. That would change the world at a rate never before seen on Earth.</p>
<p>But who wants to change the world?</p>
<p>Apparently the people who are so methodically involved in old style charity. ( giving to the externally poor). There is an idea that  by somehow bringing others along to a better way of life, they become hero&#8217;s and the gifter becomes a benevolent catalyst.</p>
<p>That idea does have merit, based on thousands of years of connectedness. Of course giving connects. Of course art is the act of pulling together various elements until something new is inspired. Of course money has a history of taint. But to assign money with the disgust of unraveling art is as perceptually vacant as claiming the best charity is also that which appears to make a good poster.</p>
<p>Great charity doesn&#8217;t have to look like a Habitat documentary. It can look like me helping a Wall Street executive to overcome stuttering.</p>
<p>It can look like me paying for an executive&#8217;s latte and cab fare  so they can get to an important meeting in time to &#8216;change the world&#8217;. You may never know how vital that meeting was. It could have saved the world from a disaster never before imagined. But it won&#8217;t be counted as charity by the do-gooders who can only perceive such as a survival scene.</p>
<p><strong>Humm</strong></p>
<p>Which brings me back to the hero&#8217;s journey. It is based on ego. As long as ego get&#8217;s stroked and the format of the journey plays out in grand fashion, the ego counts it as  a win. But if the art is far too complex or is found at the place of simplicity on the other side of complexity, it does not (seem to) get a hero check mark. Curious.</p>
<p>And the beat goes on.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Excellent Blog Alert</strong></p>
<p>Some <a href="http://karenkurtak.com/">Ecology News</a>,  Some Teaching of Ecology and lots of other topics.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>What happens when you find a great blog and you want everybody to know about it?</p>
<p><strong>Just Suppose</strong></p>
<p>I mean what if Shakespeare was a writer living in a tree house in South America and</p>
<p>all his work got destroyed by time and natural causes never to be enjoyed by humanity?</p>
<p>Bummer.</p>
<p>I found a blog that really measures up and I want the world to know about it.</p>
<p><strong>Unfounded Fear</strong></p>
<p>I have this fear that intelligence is rare and</p>
<p>we need to swing the spotlight over when it starts to murmur.</p>
<p>The relationship among humans and nature and food and soil-water-type things is utterly mind boggling.</p>
<p>There is one who has a handle on it.</p>
<ul>
<li>She studies it so we don&#8217;t have to.</li>
<li>She is sincere and well read, studied and applied. ( is that grammer?)</li>
<li>She is honestly looking for the missing pieces and finds many clues, then reports on them in language I can understand.</li>
<li>What a breath of fresh air.</li>
</ul>
<p>Karen Kurtak is a rare woman.</p>
<p>Her blog is about</p>
<ul>
<li>better health and well being,</li>
<li>the relationship of this natural thing to that.</li>
<li>How it fits together and why and how you could act toward it if you want to improve both the basics and the frills.</li>
</ul>
<p>One of her articles is about soil and how the human digestive system contains the same organisms found in dirt.</p>
<p>Karen explains findings that draw a definite corollary between</p>
<ul>
<li>your well balanced system and</li>
<li>well balanced dirt.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>The two have a relationship. </strong></p>
<p>I mean if you consider millions of years living in and around dirt</p>
<p>you might assume it worked its way into the human system, huh?</p>
<p><strong>Son of Bummer</strong></p>
<p>But what happens when today&#8217;s soil is depleted of the elements that once filled us with vim and vigor.<strong> Bingo. </strong></p>
<p>This is why I make it a regular mission to read Karen&#8217;s blog.</p>
<p>Where else would I get information like that, dumbed down enough for me to understand?  Nowhere.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s fascinating to learn that when you eat acidic food</p>
<ul>
<li>your bones try to buffer it like a Tums tablet,</li>
<li>and that process can break down your bones.</li>
</ul>
<p>Read about that here-</p>
<p>http://karenkurtak.com/?p=121.</p>
<p>Know why great northern beans or adzuki beans with kale is so good for you?</p>
<p>Read it here- http://karenkurtak.com/?p=128</p>
<p><strong>Powerful Information</strong></p>
<p>Karen has studied Chinese medicine for years and really knows her stuff.</p>
<p>She is well connected and comes in contact with the best of the best.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s kind of funny to me that when a person finds something they believe in</p>
<p>they want to share it all over with everybody. What is that? Caring, I guess.</p>
<p>So here&#8217;s my caring for the day-  Do yourself a favor and check out Karen&#8217;s blog.    KarenKurtak.com</p>
<p>It has some <a href="http://karenkurtak.com/">ecology news and teaching</a> and plenty of other interesting information.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When <a href="http://www.copywritingadvertising.com"> ad copy </a>is written there&#8217;s a long list of</p>
<ul>
<li>do&#8217;s and</li>
<li>don&#8217;ts</li>
</ul>
<p>that need to be taken into consideration. For example- the copy written for a great <a href="http://www.BobMayberryHyundai.com">Charlotte Hyundai </a>Dealership that goes under the name of Bob Mayberry.</p>
<p>This dealership is a true class act. Serving the area&#8217;s of North and South Carolina that are heavily populated with auto dealerships, the guys have to be sharp to stay on top. of</p>
<p>Shoppers from all over the area make a point to go to Bob Mayberry Hyundai just because of the friendly approach .</p>
<p>After all, you would rather do business with friends you can trust, right? Well that goes for other folks as well. When you are spending thousands of dollars for a new or used auto you want and deserve</p>
<ul>
<li>To be treated with respect</li>
<li>To be appreciated after the sale</li>
<li>To receive high quality follow up service</li>
</ul>
<p>Most auto dealers promise this kind of care. Bob Mayberry actually delivers it.</p>
<p>Why is this kind of service so important? It has to do with trust.</p>
<p>Issues of trust can be a deal breaker at any point in a negotiation. When you are dealing with people you already trust</p>
<p>the  potential to be disappointment is not so great.</p>
<p>If you live in Charlotte and are shopping for a new Hyundai, there are plenty of choices. But the choice that usualy wins is the one involving trust.</p>
<p>Important decisions come down to trust. After the research, the technical specifications, the money, the service aggreement, what it comes down to is whether or not you want to do business with the people involved. And that is all about trust.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why the people at Bob Mayberry Hyundai are so  picky. They want to be sure you have the best car buying experience ever, period.</p>
<p>Honestly if buying a car was all about specs and color and accessories you could order one from a warehouse. But you really need to know that a quality company-</p>
<ul>
<li>Stands behind your purchase</li>
<li>Is there for you when you have questions</li>
<li>Will be around for years to come</li>
<li>Has expert knowledge to share with you.</li>
</ul>
<p>When you are shopping for a new Hyundai in the Charlotte area, just drive a little and &#8211;as the old saying goes&#8211; save a lot, at Bob Mayberry.</p>
<p>The dealership is located at 3220 West Highway 74&#8212;that&#8217;s straight out Independence Boulevard toward Monroe. Call them at 866-257-6640.</p>
<p>So what are the copy guidelines for an auto dealer like this? The challenge is to present the facts in such a way as to be authentic, believable. There are so many auto dealers out there shouting for attention and they all have a tendency to claim superlative position.</p>
<p>So with a great dealership such as Bob Mayberry, it is important to be real. <a href="http://www.CharlotteHyundainow.com">Charlotte Hyundai </a>shopping is a pleasure now.</p>
<ul>
<li>The folks who work at Bob Mayberry are authentic.</li>
<li>They really know their business and</li>
<li>They really do want each customer to be happy.</li>
</ul>
<p>So any copy written about this will need to be authentic as well. Crazy Ernie&#8217;s has been writing copy and representing quality clients for over 40 years.  Bob Mayberry&#8217;s integrity is recognized and reflected in their marketing.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.BobMayberryHyundai.com">People living in the Charlotte area shopping for a Hyundai </a>will find the best service, quality and personnel at Bob Mayberry.  Count on it.</p>
