The Duchess

Here is Steve Renner’s posting from this morning at the AdPacs rally in Miami, Florida, USA, provided compliments of the Duchess of Earle:

Good morning, Everybody!  Well, the recent events of the Duchess of Earle’s life kept her a sleepyhead this morning, but she’s on the ball now and inviting you to join the iNetGlobal and AdPacs Rally webcast from today’s meeting in Miami, Florida.  To join the meeting NOW click on the link that follows, scroll down the page and click on the link.  Please note the password is “imtrain”.  To join the webcast NOW, the Duchess invites you to click here.

It’s quiet in the room when the Duchess of Earle enters this morning.  Steve Renner and Jonathan are sitting at their computers, getting set up for the meeting.  There are welcoming words exchanged and then pretty soon, others begin to arrive.  The aroma of coffee wafts from the break room next door and a box of bakery confections awaits on the table to tempt the ones that showed up without breakfast. 

Renner begins to talk about how his business started: how they signed up 10,000 people within a week.  As his business progressed, he found that people were asking for training and that they were doing the same thing over and over in teaching them.  So he decided that he should set up a training system, which started out as The Affiliate Community (TAC) and then became Internet Marketing Train, or IMTrain.  In the wake of IMTrain, he began to add more and more services, opening up his entire business plan for sharing with his customers and students.  The addition of all the extra services led to a morphing of the business, because it called for an all-encompassing organization - and thus was born iNetGlobal.

The services included in iNetGlobal are Cash Cards International (the original foundation of his business), IMTrain, SEOLinks Network, Blogpros, V-Mail (autoresponder), AdPacs, V-Shops (shopping cart and affiliate program), V-Webcast.  All these services, with the exception of the latter two (which cost extra) come to a member at a monthly subscription price - a steal of a deal - of $39.95 (!) per month. 

The lifeblood of any internet business is traffic.  If you had the best-looking billboard in the world, but it was located in the middle of the desert, all your efforts to create that wonderful sign would be in vain because no one would see it.  So the AdPacs program was started in order to offer the opportunity to internet marketers to easily increase traffic flow to their website.  Put your site up on AdPacs and inside of ten minutes, there will be more people viewing your site.

Other ways to increase traffic to your website include setting up an affiliate system, buying traffic, borrow traffic or you can do what Renner refers to legally “stealing” traffic by the means of smart marketing.  This latter technique involves positioning your business such that it diverts traffic to your site.  This involves a learned skill - which is where his education comes in.  He offers training in his 2-day course, which he calls MIT, or Millionaire Internet Training.

His system is affordable and offers people the opportunity to get their businesses online without great expense.  It’s very expensive to advertise on the likes of Google and this fact excludes a lot of businesses that have little to no advertising budget. 

He goes to the iNetGlobal website and selects AdPacs on the menu.  AdPacs offers three ways to advertise: surf, search and content.  Advertisers earn up to 50% in rebates on their advertising, plus online advertising credits for their business. 

One can participate in the program for free, show one site and surf to earn credits that enable one to show their site.  As a customer, one can earn up to 50% on what one spends in advertising.   If one chooses to become a distributor of this system, there is a five-level program one can enter.  This marketing program has reasonable monthly volume requirements with increasing benefits for performance.  See the chart below.

AdPacs Member Levels

AdPacs can handle all of your Online Advertising needs!

Individuals and businesses considering this program should be clearly aware that this is NOT a paid-to-surf type program.  The benefits of this program, which - as the Duchess can attest - can bear much fruit, are based on sales. 

He goes to the new soon-to-be-launched search engine, www.acesse.com .  He illustrates how members can advertise on the search engine, the same way that they can advertise on Google.  But the cost will be much more reasonable.  This search engine also offers a benefit that Google doesn’t offer - the ability to earn for utilizing the search engine. 

At this point, Renner’s spiders are indexing about 8,000,000 pages per day and have been at it for about a month.  They still have a long way to go to get to everything that’s out there, but they’re well on their way. 

Costs initially will be based on the amount bid for the advertising.  Later they will develop a more complex system for determining who gets to advertise.  But with this new search engine, it presents a perfect opportunity for a newbie to learn how to utilize search engine advertising and have it be a lot kinder to the business pocketbook. 

So, how does one make money with AdPacs, anyway? 

The plan is called a differential program.  One enters at the base level and earns their way up the ladder.  Those above the newly sponsored person/business earn the difference in the earnings on a particular sale.

Here’s the chart posted on the website about what the program offers:

Level		Gold	Platinum	Diamond	Blue Diamond
Total Pay-Out		17%	18%	19%	25%

Revenue Share Rebates And Rewards

Note: It is not possible to make a profit by simply buying AdPacs and surfing websites. 
Surfing can generate a rebate on someone’s AdPac purchases, and they can get credits
for AdPacs, but it is impossible to make a profit simply through buying and / or surfing.

Now, Renner realizes that not everyone is a sales person, so he is working to make it easy to bring people aboard.  Therefore, he is launching a new program called Cash Club, which offers rebates from one’s online purchases at major companies, such as Target, Macy’s, Best Buy,  and MANY more.  In addition, when one invites others to join the free program, one also earns money on what those folks purchase - 40%!

Steve invites some testimonials from some of us sitting in the room - Andy Anderson, Jim Eng and the Duchess of Earle herself. 

Then he fields questions:  When will Cash Club be available?  They were hoping to unveil it next weekend in Miami, but it is not looking as though it will be ready that fast.  But it will definitely be ready for the holiday shopping season - likely it will be ready for the Rally in Dallas Nov. 8th. 

In Miami, there will be a gathering Friday evening.  They will be broadcasting next Saturday, starting a 9 AM Eastern, and the meeting will run until 4 PM.  After that, in the evening, there will be a party and dancing.  

Any new member that signs up and purchases a package will be matched 50%.  They have one more opportunity for a match, which is 100%, if they attend a live event.  Sponsors also get a match, the amount of which depends upon your rank.

Well, that’s a wrap!  The Duchess and the iNetGlobal team bid you adieu until Tuesday evening.  Have a great weekend! 

It’s Tuesday night again and the Duke and Duchess of Earle, along with their friend, Merryn Flavell, arrive at the Bloomington office of Steve Renner, the internet marketing visioneer and founder of iNetGlobal and AdPacs.

Renner isn’t going to spend a lot of time on the particulars of his suite of products this evening, but he is going to dwell on the newest program in his wide world of internet marketing.  It’s called Cash Club - if you’ll recall the Duchess mentioned it last week and mentioned that you’re invited to get ready to sign up for it in about the next ten days or so. 

Cash Club offers cash back on purchases from both local and national stores.  There is also the opportunity to earn on what your recruits purchase.  They can sign up too - it’s free and you’ll make money on what your sponsorees purchase.  Great program!

The other exciting thing that’s getting closer to being unveiled is Renner’s new search engine, which is called www.acesse.com .  There will also be plenty of opportunity to advertise on acesse.  He shows how to go into one’s AdPacs site and how to set up the ads.  There is a four step process that will get your ads launched.  The word is going to get out quickly, Steve says, that there is inexpensive advertising available on acesse. 

There will also be a blog widget coming out within the next week or so.  It just keeps getting better and better! 

Then he shares the AdPacs marketing program, wherein one can surf and earn 75% of one’s advertising expenses back.

Cash Cards International is a digital currency company, which offers your company the opportunity to pay its affiliates around the world.

There also is IMTrain, SEOLinks Network, Host2Profits, Blogpros, V-Shops, V-Mail, V-Webcast.  Access to all of these programs is available for one reasonable price, with the exception of V-Shops and V-Webcast, for both of which there is an additional charge.

There is also an excellent opportunity to build an organization in iNetGlobal.  One can begin as a Distributor and build his/her way to a large, profitable business. 

Traffic is the key to internet marketing.  You can have a billboard, but if it’s located in the desert and no one drives by, you’re not really in business.  You can buy traffic.

One way to buy traffic is to join the AdPacs program as a free surfer, where one can show one site and surf from 24-100 sites per day and thereby earn credits to advertise.  If one signs up as a paying customer, one can show an unlimited number of sites and earn up to 50% in rebates.  There are additional levels that take one up to a maximum of 75% rebates.

But there are also rewards available, which can take the total funds/credits that come back to the advertiser up to a maximum of 125%.   This is based upon one’s membership level.

Steve gets a request to create a widget on AdPacs and so he walks us through the process of making a widget for Merryn’s online university, Flavell International University.  When it is complete, he posts it on his own blog.  Then he shows the group how one fellow puts a large ad in each of his blogposts.

Well, that’s a wrap for this evening.  Everybody grabs a cookie (not the virtual kind!) before they head into the cool fall evening.

It’s a humid, cloudy Sunday morning as the Duchess of Earle makes her way from west to east across Bloomington, MN for day two of the MIT Workshop Live with Steve Renner.  It’s a bit slower trip this morning, as I-494 eastbound is closed for the weekend as the crews work on the bridge at Lyndale Avenue.

Everybody arrives a few at a time and gradually settle in, chatting and grabbing coffee and sweet rolls.  About 9:15 Mr. Renner commences to talk about how your online business works.

Establish yourself as a brand on the internet - you don’t have a sales page yet.  Start building your list with a squeeze page so when you offer a product you’ve got people to ‘talk’ to about your offer. 

The basic order of things is:  get the customers on your list (capture their information), make a compelling offer, collect the funds, and follow up with other items. 

Amongst the students, only one has their payment system set up.  That student is using Paypal, which has been purchased by Ebay.  Paypal is a digital currency system, as is Renner’s own V-Cash and Cash Cards International.  Steve points out a difference between Paypal’s system and that of V-Cash:  Paypal has direct access to one’s bank account and V-Cash does not.  Another processing company is 2Checkout.

He says one can always adjust their process as they go, but encourages everyone to “get it out there” and give it a try.  “The fortune is in the followup!” he says.  “Write that down!”  Don’t always try to sell them something - send them things for free at least once a week, things such as informational items.  Write your emails as though you are talking to your good friends.  Eventually there won’t be email, because it will all be RSS feeds that one subscribes to.

Next topic to be addressed is the students’ homework.  Steve asks for volunteers and finds one.  Keywords for the businesses are scrutinized and then a list is made to use in creating statements that will draw the readers’ attention when they land on the page.  Steve writes a headline on the board, then stands back to take a look at how it can be improved.  Students offer suggestions and discussion follows.  He talks about the great need for a compelling offer on the page.  People click on through when there is not compelling offer.  Offer a guarantee for your product - be confident in it and tell them you’ll give them their money back if they’re not satisfied.  Make it simple and easy to buy.  If possible, get testimonials from clients or documentation that substantiate your claims. 

The students are given fifteen minutes to complete their headlines.  Then we start working together on the headlines they have produced - crafting the lines so that they draw the readers’ attention.  Up until today the Duchess rather objected to the term “capture page” - it sounded to her too much like warfare.  But this has given a new perspective - one of capturing attention more in the sense of attracting attention, which, in the Duchess’ view, is a far more positive thing than imprisoning it.

After all students have had their headlines looked at, we name our keyword lists and are told it’s time to name our keyword list.  Then we announce it and invite folks to sign up for it.  A 20% conversion rate would be considered good.

Go to all the search engines and sign up with them to advertise.  Concentrate on one thing and promote it.  Have a series of emails ready to send those that sign up on your list.  They are available in the IMTrain materials - in the “Follow-up System in a box.”  It’s one of the many benefits of belonging to iNetGlobal and IMTrain - there is a veritable TON of information at the members’ fingertips.  All one has to do is open the website and look for it! 

Headline, subhead and offer are the first three paragraphs on your capture page. 

 Well, it’s lunch time.  When we come back from lunch, we’ll be setting up our blogs and autoresponders.  It’s off to Ikea for a chicken wrap and a cookie!  See you soon!

The Duke and Duchess are back at Steve Renner’s meeting room this Tuesday evening, along with a small hoard of folks - both in person and online.  There’s a lot of good stuff goin’ on around here and it’s drawing lots of attention.  The Duchess is happy to share with you the comments and events of the evening:

Steve starts out the evening by telling the tale of his interest in computers back in 1998.  He traded his labor to paint a fellow’s house and earned a computer in the process.  What he got would certainly be considered a boat anchor today, but that was his start. 

He decided to found a company that gave away things for free and got a .net domain, because he wanted to be a service provider.  He got his own T-1 server, then got some fellows to help him provide a free email service.  Next he found a way to offer free websites.  Then came tracking info, followed by internet access under the domain ezze.net.  He had all manner of freebies - but the hook was that to get the free stuff, they had to sign up.  So that built him a sizeable list. 

He attended multi-level marketing meetings, where he learned about affiliate programs.  The result was his first foray into earning money online.  He pioneered what he calls hybrid marketing: a combination of internet marketing and multilevel marketing.  He says he hadn’t really told anybody about what he was up to yet, but someone had been talking because he began to get requests for his services.    He relates how he had his email set to chime when someone signed up.  He was sitting there with his bride, Patty, watching television, when the first chime sounded.  Pretty soon there was another chime, then another and another - and then they started coming rapid fire 24/7  - and he signed up 10,000 people the first week!  It melted the server like wax and he had to hire a fellow to sit up round the clock until he got the system back up and running.  The work done was good and has held: in the years since, his sites have been down no more than about 20 minutes. 

Because of the issue of paying people around the world, he dreamed up the idea of a company cash card to offer his affiliates.  They had to invent a system that would take the money, load it onto the card and make it accessible nearly anywhere in the world.  Doesn’t sound that novel an idea today, but it was back then. 

The business expanded beyond just his affiliates into the world at large and has turned into such a huge international business that it is the foundation of his entire marketing empire today.

Then a couple of years ago, people began to ask for assistance in getting their own businesses launched and marketing on the internet.  So, Steve began to teach about the services he offers and how to use them.  In providing services, he started with email responders.  Then he added multiple services, modeled after Google, but that have some twists to them.  He offers a large suite of products, which he keeps expanding:  Host2Profist web hosting, SEOLink, V-Mail, Blogpros, etc. - all of them are included with the membership in his new umbrella organization, iNetGlobal, at $39.95 per month.  Available in addition to the other products are two that require further reasonable fees: V-Shops (shopping cart and affiliate service) and V-Webcast, which is for airing meetings such as the one streaming onto the internet as the Duchess types away.

Renner’s program offers the opportunity to sign up free, as a subscriber, or as a VIP (Vitual Internet Partner).  This latter part of the program has four levels:  Gold is the entry level, then Platinum, followed by Diamond and Blue Diamond. 

People often ask him how they can increase traffic to their websites - and his answer to that question is AdPacs, his newest program, which he describes as as permission-based advertising service.  Average conversion rate is 2% on one’s website.  Advertising online can be expensive, especially if you want to be on page 1.  But who’s going to see you on page 2, so  Page 1 is where you want to be!

Many companies will spend a fortune on ads without knowing what they’re doing.  If the conversion to sales isn’t there, they wind up with nothing to show for their investment in ads. 

Some say banner ads are dead, but Renner says this just isn’t so.  He knows people that are making abundant income using banner ads.

But the easiest, simplest way to get traffic to one’s site is to buy it.  This leads into the AdPacs presentation…  He shows the group a blog post that he has composed and how he links to the websites.  He makes note of the time as being 8:28 PM.  By 8:34 he has the posting launched.  Then he decides to add a graphic, since Google likes graphics.  He selects an AdPacs graphic and titles it with the same title as his blog post.  He’s all done by 8:35, saying we’ll come back in a few minutes to see how quickly it has shown up online.

Tonight he is announcing a content network and also a publisher network, which is like Google’s AdSense.  He predicts that blogs around the world will have a little note at the bottom that says, Advertising by AdPacs, the way many ads now say they are from Google.  Launch of this new branch of the Renner internet marketing tree is scheduled for September 15 of this year.

Going back to the topic of AdPacs, he lays out the program and the earnings, which are all on a chart the Duchess regrets she is unable to reproduce here.  Suffice it to say that it’s a good looking program. :) 

Then asks the time - which is about 8:55.  He goes online to check the location of the blogpost he put out a few minutes ago.  It hasn’t shown up yet, but his post from this morning is sitting in the second position on the webpage.  He’s glad to see it there, but he says he should have the top spot and the first few under that - and with a little effort, he can surely accomplish that, the Duchess well knows!  Some of the newbies in the group are amazed and ask how that can possibly be done.  The Duchess pipes up and says, “It’s magic!” :)  Renner invites the questioners to his next MIT class to learn how to work that little trick.

Time for a break to conduct the business of signing attendees up in the program.  It’s a productive evening for everyone - and, upon her return to her castle, the Duchess is pleased to find her downline growing nicely, especially given all the new names the day’s activities have brought. 

Time to roust herself off the chair and up the stairs to the bed chamber.  The Duchess seems to have a knack for getting embroiled in editing and refining her compositions and never getting around to some shuteye time.  So here it is ten past two on Wednesday morning - the time has certainly come to put away the toothpicks and find the pillow.  Sweet dreams, all! 

Tuesday evening finds the Duchess of Earle madly scrambling to get to Steve Renner’s office in the wake of multiple meetings in her afternoon.  Her sweet Duke meets her at the meeting room with her computer, two tasty pieces of cold (homemade) leftover pizza for her dinner and a couple of Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies for dessert.  So she sets up her computer and sits down to her meal with a sidedish of Renner’s recent recipes for internet marketing success.

Renner’s company pioneered changing cash into cash/debit cards that could be easily transformed into cash locally for anyone nearly anywhere in the world.  When the company they were using for the conversion service went out of business, Steve, the Master of “Model and Swipe,” figured out what they’d been doing and reverse engineered it.  So over the years, he’s built it into a sizable business. 

 He’s been involved primarily on the back end of the internet business, but now is coming forth to teach others what he does - how he gets paid handsomely for “basically goofing around on the internet” all day.

He started with an affiliate program, but realized that affiliate marketing was really only one part of internet marketing.  So he launched IM Train and all its related services, catering to internet marketers - as is illustrated with his webcast service, V-Webcast.  But he realized that with all his services, that they were too strung out.  Therefore he decided to put them under an umbrella organization.  That was a Sunday - and by Tuesday he had the announcement of iNetGlobal.com.  He had to negotiate for that domain name, but was successful in getting the name he wanted.  So now there is IMTrain, SEO Links Network, Host 2 Profits (backed by their company V-Webs), Blogpros, V-Shops, V-Mail (autoresponder services), V-WebCast.   Membership in his iNetGlobal company gives one access to Steve and all the services and resources he offers, even including private label products.  And they add more and more benefits all the time, even offering such things as Microsoft Certified Professional training.   

The services are state the art, Renner says, and have 14 servers working for their system.

CPanel hosting is available, which is the easiest way for novices to run their website.

Premium Hosting Services are standard with Host2Profits:  phpBB, WordPress, Portals/CMS (Content Management Systems including Mambo and Drupal), Moodle, Joomla, Noah’s Classified, Open-Realty, PhpAdsNew, PHP auction, phpCOIN, calendars, schedulers, support tickets, Logic Helpdesk, Image Galleries, Website Builder, such as Template Express, Mailing List software, Wiki, Project Management, etc, etc. etc!!!  This list, which goes on and on, and is still being added to, can be found at www.host2profits.com/services.html   

So what does all this cost a subscriber?  One must pay a LOT with all those benefits!  But in truth, it’s a basement bargain price of $39.95 per month, after the initial startup charge of $59.95.  What a steal of a deal! 

One of the most basic tools of internet marketing is TRAFFIC, he says as he continues.  It’s important to get pairs of eyeballs looking at your ads.  So now he is adding a new service to his empire and it’s called AdPacs.  It’s a bit like pay per click (PPC) ads, though certainly different. 

Steve mentions John Reese, “a very sharp marketer” who has been marketing a product called Traffic Secrets 2.0.  Steve targeted some keywords that might not be the top words for the product and - bingo! - he was able to be listed on the first page, right under the two listings that belong to Reese himself. 

Mr. Renner also figured that people might well be looking for Reese’s videos, so he posted some for that as well. 

 Last year over $21 Billion was spent on internet advertising.  So, pure and simple, internet advertising is big business.

People pay good money to place the pay per click (PPC) ads, but the advertising company never pays you back for spending your money with them.  The company just wants more funds when your ad budget is spent.  BUT now, with the AdPacs program, you and I can earn up to 100% of your purchases back.  If you’ve met certain criteria, you can also earn an additional 25%. 

One can start for free at the start and show up to three sites, surf up to 72 sites per day.  As a free member, one can earn commissions of 2% on ad business they bring it.  Once one sigins up as a subscriber, the commission rises to 4% on one’s first level and now expends to the second level with a 2% commission.  There are three VIP levels as things go up the line. 

As one earns, their funds go into a cash card account. 

Subscribers that bring aboard other subscribers can earn another income stream from the subscription fees.  This provides a residual income.  This also gets paid through the cash card.

Then along comes the VIP (Virtual Internet Partner) program, where one can private label the business.  The Gold, Platinum and Diamond levels each have benefits.  The VIP level offers an additional income stream, because one can offer the VIP program in their marketing.  It’s more than the Duchess is going to spell out here, but rest assured that it paints a pretty picture of what one could actually earn. 

Sooo, here is the AdPacs presentation:  One can advertise their website, generate more traffice, more leads, more sales, and at the same time, earn rebates and bonuses. 

AdPacs pays rebates (thought it does not guarantee them - this depends on company sales) on every dollar one spends on advertising in a cooperative network.  There is the potential to make money five ways:  surf for credits, advertise your website, 2-tier referral bonuses (from 2-10% commissions on what others purchase from you), rebates and bonuses (up to 125%), VIP private label opportunities. 

About the surfing of your site by others:  It’s 100% guaranteed that one will get hits on one’s website for $1.00 per ad credit.  This by itself is a great advertising value.

About advertising your website:  Make more sales and generate more leads for your business.   One can buy more ad pacs - up to $60K per month.  One must be a subscriber to buy ad pacs for $1.00, which is wholesale.  Free members can buy ad pacs at retail, whcih is $2.00 per ad.

About rebates and bonuses:  These are earned by rebates on your purchases and the bonuses for being a strategic partner (the VIP progam).

Free member earns 2% commission

Subscriber earns 4%/2%

Gold VP earns 5%/4%

Platinum VIP earns 8%/4%

Diamond VIP earns 10%/5%

Ability to show websites ranges from 3 for a free member to 20 sites for a Diamond.

Min. purchase is $20.00.  Average return will be 1%, with a cap or 8%.  In the beginning, the returns will be more. 

Now George Flavell, Steve’s CEO of the AdPacs program, sits down and holds forth on the spreadsheet and how the numbers of the program work.

Questions and answers are invited.

Steve is offering ad pacs to those that sign up for the VIP program and matching of funds they spend on ads. 

They hope to launch within the next week, so get your funds in place!

An extra bonus: those that are already signed up in Steve’s program are going to be blessed with ad pacs!  WOW!!  This news is certainly music to the Duchess’ ears!  Thanks, Steve!
