| 1 | CleanVideoEpisode 11: Interview with Gideon Shalwick | In this interview I was able to sit down with Gideon Shalwick and talk to him about his FREE 92 page Rapid Video Blogging ebook. He has inspired me for years and is one of the many reasons I decided to get in to video blogging instead of the traditional text blogging format. Given all the problems you can experience with Skype video interviews from the other side of the world, we decided to go with audio. I decided to use some talking Avatars to make things a little more visually exciting. I thought they were pretty cool, but a little on the silly side! I think if these Avatars are used in the right setting, they can really be of good use for the video marketer. Gideon has really only started his quest to make money online and enjoy the passive income lifestyle within the past 5 years. In that short amount of time he has become one of the most influential bloggers and definitely the video marketing expert. You can find out more about him at GideonShalwick.com and if you want to get straight to the 92 page Rapid Video Blogging ebook, then make sure to check it out at RapidVideoBlogging.com. In the beginning of the interview he shares with us his story on how he was tired of doing the 9-5 and making other people money. One day he decided to make some big changes, moved to Australia from New Zealand with his wife to start a new life and new business. He shares with us the reasons why he decided to become an expert at video creation and blogging. In the book he talks about the 7 steps for dominating your niche using the Rapid Video Blogging Method. I will lay out those steps below. Step 1 - Identify the niche you would like to dominate Step 2 - Produce high quality videos easily and FAST! Step 3 - Create a video domination hub Step 4 - Create powerful, response invoking content Step 5 - Optimize your video domination hub for maximum results Step 6 - Use some viral video magic for maximum exposure Step 7 - Monetize $$$ your asset Don't worry, these steps are all explained in detail in his Rapid Video Blogging ebook. We talk about his case study which is also included in his free report and how he helped a magician friend of his dominate the market with the keyword "free magic tricks" and bring in a ton of money as well. One of the last sections you do not want to miss is the 3 methods to make money with your video domination hub. These methods are also explained in detail in the free report. Fast Cash Injection Method The Competition Crushing Method The Passive Income Method And finally at the end of the report there is an excellent 2 page checklist that will help you get your videos and hub created in no time so you can start making money online. Since this was my first interview over Skype, I was very happy with the results and very grateful that it was with the best video marketer on the internet today! I am sure you are going to enjoy it very much. Until next time, just download the 92 page report and DO IT! ~ Bryan | 26 5 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanEpisode 10: Interview with the HotDogMan | While I was at Affiliate Summit West 2012 I was interviewed by the HotDogMan about my preference for ketchup on a hot dog. I was intrigued that this guy was just walking around the show floor with a video camera and tripod and interviewing tons of famous people as well as other show attendees right there in the middle of the convention. | 26 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 4 | CleanVideoEpisode 10: Interview with the HotDogMan | While I was at Affiliate Summit West 2012 I was interviewed by the HotDogMan about my preference for ketchup on a hot dog. I was intrigued that this guy was just walking around the show floor with a video camera and tripod and interviewing tons of famous people as well as other show attendees right there in the middle of the convention. Some of the people he popped the question to was Bruce Clay, DK, Erick Thomas, Jim Kukral, John Chow, Jon Spoelstra, Kirk Taylor, Matthew Lesko, Missy Ward, Shawn Collins, Shoe Money, Tricia Meyer, Wade Tonkin and many others. He was having a great time and you could tell that he was very passionate about what he was doing. But I didn't know why he was there. I just had to know his story and find out what he was up to so I asked him to do an interview with me. He told me about his exciting life of running a hot dog truck business but unfortunately was unable to continue due to health issues and was forced to sell his business. He started a blog called thehotdogtruck.com where he blogged about the business and started making money from selling his information and placing affiliate links to related products and services on his website. He also created a website dedicated about how to start a hot dog business at http://www.howtostartahotdogbusiness.com. What a great idea! It is a really amazing story and he has a lot going on. I can only imagine he will get a cable tv show soon. He was very laid back and it was nice to hang out with him during the conference. He is also one lucky man and took home a sizable winning just prior to leaving the convention! What a great trip. Make sure to check out his websites, they are inspiring and really gives you an idea of what you can do when blogging and making money online by following your passions.

| 9 | CleanVideoEpisode 7: Interview with Shoemoney : Retiring?! | You are going to love this interview. I had the opportunity at the recent Affiliate Summit West 2012 convention to interview Jeremy 'Shoemoney' Shoemaker. One of the top affiliate marketers in our industry and also one of the most popular affiliate marketers. He has been in the game for over 10 years and sharing his experiences with others for over 9 years now. I started following him from the very beginning, checking out his posts on the message boards, listening to his podcasts on webmaster radio and checking his blog frequently. Back then he was one of the first companies to show up when you were searching using the terms 'make money online'. The famous photo of his historic google check for $132K was all over the internet and he was a great starting point when wanting to learn more about the industry and how to earn money online. Shoemoney explains what got him in to the industry, how he started making money online and why he decided to provide the closing keynote at the Affiliate Summit West convention. Shoemoney is retiring?! You will have to watch this video or listen to the podcast to find out if Jeremy Shoemaker is deciding to retire from the industry! More interviews to come! Unfortunately I was plagued with a very poor internet connection and was having system problems when I was out in Las Vegas, but I was able to record a few other interviews while I was there. Make sure to sign up to the newsletter to be notified when new videos are posted and get tips and advice on how to earn money online!

CleanEpisode 6: Affiliate Summit 2012 Show Coverage | I made this short video about my first night in Las Vegas for Affiliate Summit West 2012. The convention hasn't even started yet, but I had the great opportunity to learn more about making money online with mobile traffic and offers. The private session was put on by Tracking 202, Jumptap and NeverBlue. Since the mobile market is exploding right now and there are a bunch of affiliates making a bunch of money pushing mobile offers to mobile traffic, I just had to attend. It was a really good presentation about using the tracking information provided by NeverBlue and Tracking 202 to find out exactly where your offers are converting the best. Using the tracking systems along with a company that sells mobile traffic, like JumpTap, you can efficiently manage your spending and targeting to make sure you are getting the biggest bang for your buck. This is a little more of an advanced topic to cover prior to covering the steps to just get a website online, but if you are even thinking of targeting the mobile market to earn money online, then this is a great place to start. The main thing to remember when working with mobile is that offers tend to go stale quicker than offers that you are promoting on websites. That means you really need to keep a close eye on your analytics to make sure to fine tune where you traffic is going at all times. But the analytics that is offered by Tracking 202 is amazing. You can find out exactly what offers are converting down to the service provider on the phone, what operating system it runs and even the model # of the phone itself. You can also find out what hours and days convert the best and when purchasing traffic and promoting offers, you will be able to purchase only the specific traffic that converts the best. You might find a ring tone offer might due the best on the verizon network, Samsung Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.0 OS. So you will want to only purchase that traffic (and of course all the other profitable traffic based on your analytics) and shut off the rest. You can also tweak the flow of traffic if you find that you are not making money between 8am - 3pm weekdays and all day Sunday. You can shut off the traffic you are purchasing at that time as well so your offers are not shown during those periods. This is an amazing time to get in to mobile marketing. Make sure to visit the companies listed above for more information if you want to learn more about making money online with mobile traffic. I have a very busy day tomorrow and will be covering all the details in my upcoming videos! One thing I found out was that the upload speed at both my hotel and the Affiliate Summit pressroom is really slow for video uploads, so some videos might be delayed by a day. I will get them up as soon as possible so you can get those money making ideas as soon as possible! | 22 1 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanEpisode 5: Happy New Year! Now earn some money! | Hey Everyone! I know it has been a little while since my last video, so I just wanted to give you an update on what I have been working on and what is to come. I had a delay in making more videos on how to earn money online because I was trying to get my public ROKU channel approved. At the time this was my primary market as I wanted to do things differently from the standard podcasts that are available at this time. Looking back, I should have delayed the release of my iTunes and YouTube make money online videos until I got the ROKU channel completed so there would be no delays in production. I found that there was a huge desire for how-to videos on how to earn money online and thousands of people downloaded the podcasts and videos. I set some goals and decided I would start creating my step-by-step series starting in January after Affiliate Summit West 2012 #ASW2012. I thought it would be a great idea to share my Affiliate Summit experience with you and relay all the information that I learn while I am out there. It is going to be in Las Vegas and I am very excited about the trip. While I am at Affiliate Summit, I will also conduct some interviews with some big names in the affiliate marketing industry and hopefully conduct some other interviews and make additional videos on my experiences while I am there from my Hotel and from the show itself. I can't wait! If you are really serious about learning Affiliate Marketing, it is a great idea to attend these shows. You will learn a ton of great information and meet a lot of great people in the industry. Another thing I wanted to let everyone know if they were thinking about the Amazonian Profit Plan and they were discouraged in California since at the time of my last videos, Amazon shut down their Amazon Associates affiliate system to residents in California due to sales tax issues. The Governor must have heard the angry voices of over 70,000 affiliates and the bill was not passed and Amazon opened its doors back up to California Affiliate Marketers. So if you are in California and were thinking of writing reviews on Amazon Products as a method to earn money online, then get started! I still think it is one of the best ways to get your feet wet and start learning about how you can make money online. It will only get better from there.

| 15 | CleanVideoEpisode 4c: Affiliate Programs & Info Products | I have numerous ways that I am currently making money off of my websites. On my appraiser blog I sell info products, related services as well as affiliate products and services and even a little adsense. This video is a continuation of Video Episode 2b Multiple methods I use to make money off my websites The AMC directory is not the only way I make money off of that website. It is true that it is $100 for the book and you get the electronic version as well. However, I do sell just the electronic version alone for $79.95. I also have affiliate products and services on the website that I make money off of and some pages have Google Adsense. There are really high trafficked webpages within the blog that I do not have any products or services for – just much more information. I will put up adsense and people could clink on links and I would get a little tiny bit of revenue that way. The main way I am going to double the income on this website over the next six months is I am creating a series of additional products and you can do this with any industry. Making Money Through Affiliate Programs What really works well with my appraisers is just to get them more business and more customers. That is the way it is going to be with almost any type of blog that you write, unless you are focusing on a product. On those product ones or the hobbies, you are mainly going to be focusing a lot on information. Then they could buy guides if they need them on how to modify something, like maps of certain locations – how to guides. There are a lot of different products that you could create for your customer base. You are probably going to make the majority of your money through affiliate programs – selling products. Or you are going to purchase those products yourself and resell them. Or you are going to get products made somewhere and sell them. There is a huge variety of ways that you could make money off of your blog. Off of this I already have a link to another website that I have made called appraiserwebsites. I just throw out some quick blogs for appraisers with WordPress blog with like five pages. It is a static. It is actually not a blog. It is a static website using WordPress. It has basic things like the order page, information, services, service area, about page, contact page, and their home page. I optimize it usually with an optimizer plugin, built into WordPress or added to WordPress and I bring in a residual income that way. The website is originally worth $29.95 a month and I just got tired of hassling with expired credit card numbers and staying up on top of people that did not pay their bills on time. So I just made it a flat $260.00 a year and that is pretty cheap and it is to a point where it is really not worth my time to create those types of websites but I do love the appraisal industry so much and I really appreciate the people that have helped me and I really like to help people in general. For $260 a year, I will build an appraiser a website and get them listed in the search engines. I really am trying to show people that are interested in how powerful the Internet could be if used properly that I am willing to take a pay cut to show these people. Whatever you put out there has value, even if you are practically giving stuff away. It is going to come back to you one way or another. It just always does and so that is kind of the mentality that I work by. Inexpensive information products for upsells In addition to the appraiser websites, I have a new info product. It is only $25 and tells people how to get the most out of working with an appraisal management company, how to negotiate with them, and what to do when problems arise. It is a pretty big report. It is about 25 to 30 pages. It is just filled with information that most appraisers would never think of or consider. One big consideration that I found is that if I turn down all that lower paying work, | 23 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanEpisode 4c: Maximizing sales on my blog | In addition to the info product I created for my blog, I also make money online by offering additional services and products to my appraisers. I also bring in a good amount of passive income through affiliate sales of related products through Amazon and by partnering with insurance, education and other suppliers needed by appraisers. This is the continuation of Episode No. 4 Making more money off my blog The AMC directory is not the only way I make money off of that website. It is true that it is $100 for the book and you get the electronic version as well. However, I do sell just the electronic version alone for $79.95.

It is only $25 and tells people how to get the most out of working with an appraisal management company, how to negotiate with them, and what to do when problems arise. It is a pretty big report. It is about 25 to 30 pages. It is just filled with information that most appraisers would never think of or consider. One big consideration that I found is that if I turn down all that lower paying work, where they are trying to get an appraiser to go out and do an appraisal for 50 percent or 25 percent of an appraisal fee, if you accepted all those and worked your butt off you might make a certain amount of money. I have found that if I counteroffer every single one of those orders and tell them, look, based on complexity I cannot do it for that much, but I can do it for this much and I could have it back to you by this date. I double my income doing that and work probably a quarter as much. It is just simple math but most appraisers are not willing to take that risk. They are going to say, okay, | 23 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 18 | CleanVideoEpisode 4b: How I monetized my appraiser blog | Making lots of cash off my Appraiser Income blog changed everything. It went from a boring blog making hardly any sales to a highly engaging portal with lots of sales. I could quit my day job with this income stream alone! This is a continuation of Video Episode 4a Creating My Own Vendor List At the time I decided to start creating my own list of appraisal management companies, I had no intention to resell it. My intention was to stay in business. What I did was I starting going, this is back when I was in Arizona fixing up a rental property, and I was planning on retiring out there but just cannot live in Arizona. I love it out there. I love the desert but nothing beats the beach, so I had to come back. But while I was out there, this is when those changes went down and I had to find these appraisal management companies as quickly as possible otherwise I would not be able to make my two mortgages that I had at the time, all my nice built up debt and whatever else I had going on. It was a very stressful time, but I knew I just had to hoof the pavement, pick up my phone, try making some phone calls and find as many appraisal management companies as possible. So I started calling appraisers around the country and asking them how are they getting their work. What appraisal management companies are they using? I made sure to call appraisers that were located outside of Arizona. I called all my friends first that were appraisers that are now out of business unfortunately, but at that time they were getting some work trickling in so I first started by calling all them. Then I would call appraisers right out of the phone book, search Google and ask if they were interested in exchanging information. They would give me some of the AMCs (Appraisal Management Companies) that they were using. I would give them some of mine and I would do that all day long. Then what I started to do was I built up a list. I could still do appraisals for companies that were doing FHA appraisals and I could still do bankruptcy and divorce and date of death type appraisals for people. So, I made a big list in Google with company names and addresses in Maricopa County which is a huge area, has Phoenix in it, and I just started driving around and made a map in Google so I could go from one location to the next, to the next, to the next. I just went door to door and if anyone was using an appraisal management company, I got the name of the company, who they were sending their appraisal requests to get fulfilled by local appraisers. I built up a huge list that way. That compiled with doing the phone calls, sending out emails, doing searches on the internet, I just built up a very good list of appraisal management companies and I started getting flooded with work. More Work Than I Could Handle I had more work than I could handle and it was great because at that time I was starting a new business in Arizona and I had my existing company still in California. Occasionally I would drive out to California to do like a $1,000 appraisal because I did not want to just give that to one of my friends or something at the time. I needed the money. Then I showed my directory to my friends and they thought it was really great and suggested I sell it. I realized I should put that on my blog. I went on my blog and I created a sales page, threw it up there and I was making sales from time to time, nothing huge. It was decent. Originally I only offered a book version. Originally I had this book version because I was worried that if people got the book they could easily duplicate it and that would not be good. The Original Product In the beginning what set my list aside from other companies is that I put information on how to get more orders from appraisal management companies, errors to avoid, some marketing information, how to get more internet business. I have built it up since the original product went out, but this is the 2011. | 20 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 21 | CleanVideoEpisode 4a: Currently my biggest income stream | I never planned on this website to generate as much money as it currently does. It is not one of my most profitable ventures in making money online, but for now it is generating the most income. Multiple Income Streams In this episode, I am going to tell you a little bit more information about my current income revenue stream Appraiserincome.com and this is one of my best ones right now. I still have a ton of different streams coming in and they all add up to a nice, but this was one of my first blogs where I really started from scratch, really took my time to build it out. I did not know which direction I was going to take it in and then really started to get more into affiliate marketing, figure out how I could actually monetize the website and it has been a huge success, especially over the past couple of years. Appraiserincome.com I am going to talk to you a little bit about Appraiser Income dot com. You can bring it up on your computer if you are there right now and kind of look around. It is not super flashy. It is not even super clean. It is a little bit cluttered. I never really did a huge amount of updating to the template since I started it quite a long time ago, so keep that in mind. Appraisers are not a very tech-savvy group of individuals and I found that sometimes having a website that looks almost amateurish helps with your sales. I once had a website back in the late 90s and it had a really amateurish feel and look to it and that site was raking in the dough. So I got it professionally redesigned. I still had all the links in primarily the same area. It just looked a lot of clearer and a lot more professional. Had some really nice looking graphics and stuff on it as well and my sales dropped almost in half. It was crazy and it kind of went towards people, the common man type-guys and I think I discouraged some of them or it turned them off from where it was a really an amateurish-looking website to more of a pro-looking corporate website. I think with the same as Appraiserincome.com people see me and they are able to identify with me. Since I am a real estate appraiser and they do not know necessarily that I am a professional Internet marketer so it, I think this kind of benefits me in this situation. It might not be the case 100 percent. I have not really spent the time that I should to really dig down and optimize this website. I could probably squeeze out another 25 percent or more of orders based on the traffic that I am receiving and the amount of time that people stay on the website reading through the articles. I really feel that I should be able to close more sales but it is working great in the meantime and I am kind of more focused on developing this, Your Boss Blows channel and network. I will be getting back to this, but I am also, my main focus of marketing on this website right now is mainly to get as many affiliates as possible to sign up with me and to either put my advertisements in their printed magazines or put my advertisements up on their website. Internet Bubble Bursts and I become an Appraiser The best thing that is working for me right now is if a vendor has a mailing list, if I could get them to promote my product or products directly to their mailing list. I could not only build up my mailing list at the same time but also split whatever sales I make with them and that has been working well. I will go into that a little bit in the future. In 2000, I got Appraiserincome.com and I was an appraiser at about four years at that point, and it was a great industry. I mean there was tons of work out there. I was telling everyone I knew you should become a real estate appraiser. You will really enjoy this type of work if you are into real estate. It was just being great being outside, being able to do what I want, set my own schedule and it was nice to be able to learn how to value properties, value real estate from my own investments. | 17 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 24 | CleanVideoEpisode 3b: Getting Ready and Getting Organized | Setting up your work space, password management & free cloud storage. I am Bryan Knowlton with yourbossblows.com. This is the continuation of Episode No. 3. Marketing Your Videos I listen to a lot of different podcasts and the people I listen to are not constantly pushing products and services and trying to get you to go to their $1,000 seminars or mentoring program. Just as I do, they will mention different affiliate products or services where they get a small commission of what is sold. This is to cover the cost of the video expenses since the file sizes are huge. If you are planning to get into affiliate marketing using video, you need to find a service where you will be able to put those videos up for free and not totally get booted off it. If you are providing value and good service, you will probably be able to put them up on video sharing sites like You Tube and such, but they are fairly short. For me to be able to produce these videos, I need to pay for my own bandwidth and my own hosting of the videos. Since they are going on Roku and other internet TV services, I need to also cover the cost of that bandwidth. That is why I mention different affiliate products I use. Hopefully, if you decide to purchase them, they will kick back a little bit of that sale to me. It is usually a very small percentage but it all adds up. If I can open your doors to affiliate marketing you will come back in the future and who knows, maybe we will do business together. We will see how everything goes. What I really would like is if you could give me your feedback on the show. If you have any questions or comments, go to yourbossblows.com and put them there. Rate Me in iTune It would help out a ton if you rate me in iTunes and let others know what you think of this show. It is really kind of amateurish right now and we have not gotten into all the step-by-step teachings. This is my first time really doing a video other than short little videos, so we are both learning together. I hope to teach you everything I know about making money online because it has really changed my life and it only keeps getting better. The Netbook If you are doing this and you have a laptop computer, I really like the idea of working off the little notebook computers because they are really small and compact. You can take them anywhere. You do not look super goofy walking around all over town with this little tiny netbook. They are small and they can go anywhere. You can get a cool little case that looks like a day planner or something. I just really like using those products. The key though is to get one that has a good amount of memory. If it does not come with at least 2 gig or more, you could always buy it. It is really easy to open up the back and slide in a different memory chip. Those are the drawbacks to having one of those. You do not want to make it a full-time computer, but it is a good extra computer to have. Double Monitors Maybe you will be using multiple computers as I do. I have a desktop at home. I keep this presentation on a laptop just because when I go away on the weekend or if I go out of town, I like to have my work computer with me. I sometimes need to change things related to doing the appraisal reports and if I do not have it with me then it is kind of a pain. It just gives me more freedom to do what I want and that really works out well. I can complete an appraisal anywhere in the country or do any revisions on an appraisal and submit it without a problem. I can be completely out of town. So that is what I do at my office and I try to keep my office fairly clean and organized. It just makes things easier and the dual-monitor display really helps out. I have them turned vertical because my files are legal size for the appraisals. It is really simple for me to have my work file on one monitor and then have any data sources on the other. But when I am doing my affiliate marketing, or anything on the internet, | 12 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

For a list of great netbook computers that are currently on sale, please visit - Netbook Computer Sales on Buy.com Get Serious I could have a couple different information sources open, to include my blogs and my affiliate programs. It saves you a ton of time and it really does not cost that much. The monitors I have are like 21 inches, but they look like 21 to 23 inches. They are only like $125.00 and the display adapter is just a little video splitter that plugs into my laptop. I could have it go through USB. It is not a splitter, just a USB adapter. I have one coming off the laptop display and then the other one through the USB display. It works out really well. I could have three monitors if I want. If I wanted to use my laptop monitor too, but that I tried it for like a day and it was just totally different size, distracting off to the side, just didn’t work, but that will speed up your productivity quite a bit. But you want to have it at a nice quiet location inside of your house, away from all the distractions, no TV. If you are really serious about getting this done you are not going to be sitting in front of the TV working on your laptop, it just does not work. I mean you are going to be so distracted it is going to take you forever to get anything done. If you are just clearing out email or doing some random stuff, then, you could probably sit down with the wife and kids while everyone’s watching TV, and do some random stuff. | 12 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanEpisode 3a: Setting Goals, Chunking & Mind Maps | Set some goals, chunk them down and use mind maps to get them done! You really need to retain focus and get things done to make money online. Setting Goals This week on Episode 3 I am going to talk about what you want to do so you can maintain your focus as an entrepreneur. Always attracted to what is shiny and new distracts us – catches our attention, but you really need to stay focused if you are going to make money and be a successful Internet marketer and successful affiliate marketer. What I want to start you off with is just about setting some goals. If you just walked into this doing research and you are not 100 percent sure of the direction you are going to take, then I really suggest doing what I mentioned last week – the Amazon and EBay stuff. That is going to get you right into doing affiliate marketing and you will get a little taste of success and you will never go back. Once you make your first $1 – and everyone remembers their first $1 that they made off of the Internet – you will start setting goals like I need $10 a day. I need $100 a day. I need $500 a day. I need $1,000 a day. It does not have to be just money goals, but it is the simplest way for me. I don’t know why I have always thought in dollars. It is the easiest way I set most of my goals. Of course, completing projects is always very rewarding. Chunking If you instead have a huge to-do list with billions of things to do, it is good to set a goal for something that you want to get completed and then break down that goal into smaller goals or smaller lists. It is called chunking. If you have something that is going to take you a week to get done, you are going to want to break it down into steps – maybe by day and then break those down further into hourly things, or by task. You could say I need to get this domain name, Step 1. If you break it down that way, the chance of you getting things done is phenomenally higher than not setting up your goals that way. So, you are going to want to do that. I am also going to talk about my office set up and how you can get more work done at home if you are just doing this part time. You are not going to have an office dedicated towards making money online or affiliate marketing, Internet marketing. So, I am going to talk to you a little bit about that. This is going to be a little bit of a shorter show because I am going to really start driving into the step-by-step instructions. I thought there were a few more things I needed to cover and I am going to try to put out all these videos at once. I am not going to let them trickle out once every week or once every month. I am going to try and put them all out at the same time. Chances are you will just be watching these in order anyhow. MindMeister One thing that I did was that in addition to the chunking is I have been using some software. It is called MindMeister. You could use it to set out your projects and then you can go in there and edit. It is very easy just to add additional trees off of the main tree whether is it an item or goal. It is really simple to use and so if you have this huge list. I mean I am constantly breaking down my projects into chunks and sometimes I will have a page and I will be chunking it down trying to keep it all as neat as possible and by the time I get to it, it looks complete messy. It is hard to set the due dates and things like that and I just recently started using My Meister. By the time I finish setting up my structure, I can print it out and it is like a table of contents. It gives me my outline of exactly what I need to do. I use it for developing shows, like what I would like talk about. It gives me that structure on what I would like to talk about, where I am going with my ideas, so I can remain focused on everything I want to cover. It is a really good program. You can get it for free at usemindmapping.com or check out the show notes. That is one good service I use, | 8 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 30 | CleanVideoEpisode 2b: Getting the most out of Ebay Auctions | Make the most money with your Ebay Auctions! I am Bryan Knowlton with yourbossblows.com. This is the continuation of Episode No. 2. In this part of the show I am going to tell you about eBay and why I decided to use them. I told you already that I sold quite a few products on eBay and even some informational products. These days I use it primarily to buy toys – things that I necessarily do not think I should be spending my money on so I sell some of my old stuff to buy some new stuff. Everyone Has Stuff to Sell If you go under house you know everyone has stuff. Everyone has a lot of extra junk - things you have not used for years. Go through your office, your car, your shed, and your garage. If you have never sold anything on eBay, just make a little pile of about 20-30 items. Try to pick stuff that you really think people would like. If you are looking to make some good bank on eBay, you might try looking through something you think would be collectible – old coins or old stamps – collectible-type items. Then look through electronics, old games, baseball cards, old stuff you collected in the past. That is always good stuff but people buy everything. They buy vintage clothing. They really buy everything on eBay, so I have so much extra electronic stuff and old kids' toys. I will just go and donate it to a thrift store or to some people in the neighborhood who do frequent garage sales just to unload my stuff. From time to time when I want to get that extra toy then, I will sell stuff on eBay. So get those items together. If you never sold anything on eBay, give this a try because you could make it a full-time gig fairly easily. It Is Worth the Money There are tons of informational products out for this as well that ends on the improper review. Without that information, I doubt you would be able to take a review site to the level that you know Paula and Wanda did making over $10,000.00 a month just doing reviews on Amazon. You could easily do that as well. They have not been Internet marketers or affiliate marketers for their whole lifetime. They just started doing it, decided what worked, and kept on getting better and decided to sell that information. It is less than 100 bucks, and it is great information. The thing about eBooks and why I buy them personally is that you can spend all the time in the world doing research on the Internet. If you are thinking about doing affiliate marketing or you have been an affiliate marketer, you could easily volunteer that trap – that hole – as just not getting anything done. If you really want to get things done and make money and have an edge above the competition, it is worth spending 20, 30, 50, a 100 bucks to get that edge and to learn about people that have done these things and make a full-time living off of it. It is, to me, a huge difference from what I used to do. I used to do tons of research and I would procrastinate. There would always be something slowing me down until I started really trying to focus my energy on it. I heard maybe a year ago someone mention if I get one little nugget of information out of an eBook that I did not know before or I might never come across, it is worth it. That is completely worth the cost of the product. I do not just go out randomly and buy all these eBooks. I do a fair amount of research with the plate marketing. I stay up to date on what is selling and what is working. I listen to pod casts with really good Internet marketers that do reviews as well. There is a bunch of forms on the Internet that you will eventually come across. I will tell you about them as we get to that point – where you can go, where affiliates will review other affiliate's products. You can get so much really good information on that. If there is something that is working really well, like the Amazonian Profit Plan, you just have to give it a try. It is like all these affiliates are buying these products to resell. | 5 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanEpisode 2b – Getting the most out of Ebay | How to make some extra money online with Ebay. In the continuation of Episode No. 2, I talk to you about selling on EBay and why I decided to use them. I explain the ease of getting started on eBay with just the items you already possess. I suggest you look around your house, your office, your car, your shed, and especially your garage. Pull out 20 to 30 items and pick out the things you really think people will want to buy. I remind you that people will buy just about anything on EBay. I also give you other alternatives to finding items to sell, such as going to thrift stores, swap meets, garage sales and Big Lots. You can find items just about any place. I teach you how to rely on the experience and expertise of others by purchasing eBooks. I explain that there is an eBook on just about everything. I explain the value of using research conducted by others instead of spending countless hours performing your own research, which is a waste of time and energy. I share various eBooks I have purchased and some of the information I have gained from them. I explain that just gaining a nugget or two from the eBook is worth the price itself and the time it saved of not having to research it. I also share with you that two of the goldmines I struck was when I purchased Mark Ostrovsky’s eBook Get Rich Click and Tom Barnes’ eBook EBay Fortune. I end the show by giving you some of the highlights. | 5 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 33 | CleanVideoEpisode 2a: Two simple methods I use to make $ | I tell you about 2 quick and easy techniques to make an extra buck online! Episode 2a - How to make some easy cash online! I am Bryan Knowlton with yourbossblows.com. This is Episode No. 2. I am really excited about this episode. I am going to share two techniques I use to make extra money online. It is always nice if you are starting this venture out fresh and you do not want to put a lot of money into it or do not have any money to put into it. You could follow these simple techniques to actually get started with doing affiliate marketing and making money online. Two Simple Techniques In these two simple techniques you will be able to make enough extra money to purchase affiliate software, like Market Samurai – a great product that I am always talking about which will really set you above the competition and give you tons of research leverage. I am always going to be talking about Market Samurai since I just really love it. Sometimes at night when I am thinking about one of my websites, I cannot wait to get onto Market Samurai to find out what my competition is up to. It is really kind of crazy, but I love using it, so I am going to try to do a detailed tutorial at some point in the future on using it and taking advantage of everything that it has to offer. You can get a free trial in the meantime. Just visit my show notes. Today what I want to talk to you about is doing reviews of products to make extra money. I will also teach you to get your foot in the door about learning how to use hosting, buying a domain name, and installing WordPress. These are really simple things that I am going to be showing you in detail step-by-step over the next few shows. I am still giving you the information about me and some of the things I do to make an extra buck. We will get into more detailed techniques in future episodes. You could use either of these techniques for just part-time and bring in some extra cash, or you can make them full-time gigs. There are a lot of people who are using both of these techniques as a full-time job independently of each other. A lot of people do reviews for a living and they just sell affiliate products. Selling on EBay and Amazon Product Reviews A lot of people sell on eBay for a living and they even stick to just one product. It is really insane and it is not dead by far. Amazon was huge at one point. I was doing fairly well selling products on Amazon. I was even selling informational products on Amazon, and it got to a point where the competition moved in. I was not really following super-detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to maximize my income, so once it got to a certain level where I was not happy with what I was making; I just went into a new direction. But there is a lot of information out there now. There are a lot of power sellers sharing their information. You could quickly learn the techniques they use to maximize their profit on eBay. I am a real estate appraiser, as I stated in a previous show, and I still go to houses where these people are making a living from EBay. I walk in their house and they have all their products in one room that is dedicated to this and it is just filled with products. Most of the people I have seen doing it as a full-time living were selling either new or used computer equipment. I do not know why; it is just what I have come across. I do not see how. It would probably be one of the worst ideas at this point. The profit margins are so small. If you can get them at a good deal like they were, you could make a full-time living from it. Amazonian Profit Plan Not too long ago I was listening to a podcast on Coffee Talk with James Martel. He was interviewing Paula and Wanda, their friends from Australia. They were talking about how they write reviews for Amazon products. They will do their research, pick their products, and they will do like five at a time. They usually state – just do five at a time – you will be able to get them done. | 3 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

I used to do this full time, but now only use them to fund my new hardware and software purchases. It will give you the necessary experience needed to get started making money online. In episode No. 2 I share two simple techniques I use to make extra money online – writing reviews on products and selling through ebay. I show you how an eBook called the Amazonian Profit Plan revolutionized my selling business. I share some of the benefits I garnered from this eBook, including how to write reviews for Amazon products and get paid and how to get paid from the creation of shopping lists. I also give you alternatives if the Amazon Associate Program is not available in your area. I explain that just a few of the other affiliate networks I have used are Buy.com, ShareASale, LinkShare, ClickBank, and Commission Junction. I recommend using Blue Host or Host Gator as your hosting service and avoiding 1-on-1 because they have poor service and extremely slow servers. I continue to share techniques on choosing a domain name for your product reviews. If you are a technical expert or you specialize in any area, I recommend conducting product reviews along those lines. However, I also show you the secrets of finding the information you need in order to write an excellent review without ever purchasing the product itself. Take the steps to get started making money online. Buy your domain name, get your hosting at MyBlueHosting.com, install a WordPress blog and just start building it up.

| 35 | CleanVideoEpisode 1: Earn Money Online – The Introduction | In this first episode, I give you my background and let you know what you can expect in upcoming shows. There is No Magic Bullet I am Bryan Knowlton with http://yourbossblows.com. This is Episode No.1. I am going to give you a little bit of background information on me, how I have made my money online, a little bit of history about how long I have been doing this, and the different steps that I am going to show you to create a passive income online. What sets my teaching aside from other people out there is there are a lot of people teaching different systems on how to make money online. I am going teach you from start to finish what it takes. There’s no magic bullet. There are no get rich quick programs out there. You can get lucky and run into a great situation or have some really good knowledge that people are willing to pay for but what it really comes down to is “Do you have something you could offer to people that will solve a problem or create value?” Maybe you have some type of knowledge you could share with other people that you could sell to them. The great thing about having a passive income is it gives you the ability to do whatever you want, when you want. The Man Behind Your Boss Blows I have been self-employed for about 20 years. I have always been able to take a vacation, do something with my kids, and visit the family when I was not working on a current project, but it was not the same constraints of working for an employer. I could set my own hours and set my own schedule. I do not know the last time I used an alarm clock, which is kind of nice but there is a lot of work involved. It is not something that you are going to be able to do right overnight or start making the big bucks tomorrow, but what I am going to do is teach you realistic ways to make money online. I have about five to seven different streams of income coming in. I could be out at the beach. I could be off on vacation and no matter what, that money is still coming in on a monthly basis. Internet Marketing I am a real estate appraiser, so I market Internet marketing tips and advice towards other appraisers. Almost every industry out there, any home industry, (pretty much any industry), if you know someone that, for example, is a carpenter or something or installs carpeting, even better. Most likely, they are not going to know how to market their services but you can help them with that. If you know anything about the Internet, it really does not take a lot to become a local search marketer. You could help them with their advertising campaigns. You could help them with building a web site, creating that exposure they need. There is a huge difference for people that install carpeting. If you are showing up No. 1 in Google, you are going to be busy and you are going to be making a very good income. You are going to be able to pick and choose what type of carpet installation jobs you want to do. If you are No. 10, you will still be getting some business off the Internet, but it is nothing like the No. 1 position. If you could help someone in your area get the No. 1 position, they are going to pay you a lot of money. There are a lot of different things like that, maybe in your own business or your own employer where you could really help people out with Internet marketing. However, that is only one small area of making money online. Informational Packets You can also create an information product. I created a directory of companies that order appraisals. Appraisers could spend their lifetime searching down this information. I started talking with other appraisers, searching on the Internet, making lots of phone calls and I created my own directory. I now sell it for $100.00 a copy. That alone brings me over $3,000.00 to $4,000.00 a month just for that one informational product. You can do something like that. There are so many different ways to do it. Benefits of Following the Show If you follow my shows, | 1 9 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanEpisode 1: Earn Money Online – The Introduction | I introduce myself and give you a little background on what I have been doing online for the past 20 years online. Being an entrepreneur is a tough job, but you get to do what you want when you want. You will also make far more money working for yourself than providing all your skills and knowledge to an employer. Hi! I am Bryan Knowlston, an internet marketing expert and host of yourbossblows.com. I have been making money online for over 20 years, and I explain for you the value of earning passive income. I show you how I got started and how easy it is for you to get started if you have all of the right information to succeed. I tell you from the start that I am different from others in the industry in that I begin with the basics and give you step-by-step instructions of what to do and how to do it. I stress one main point – to just get started. Getting started puts you ahead of 90% of the Internet marketers in the business. If you want to make money online, you HAVE to get started!!! In Episode 1 I clearly show you that passive income equals the ability to do whatever you want when you want. I share that Internet marketing is just one example of how I makes money online. Any business, especially local businesses, need online exposure, and most of them do not have it. You can create passive income for yourself by tapping into this market and I teach you how. In addition to Internet marketing, I explain that I also earn money online by creating information packets and through affiliates. I show you how I got started as a college student, making money online by selling products and services through my Usenet account. After making some sales and receiving a few checks, I got an 800 number and a credit card processor. I go on to stress the importance of getting started quickly so you can fail quickly, focus, and move on to making millions as I lead you every step of the way.
