Butterfly Marketing 2.0 Product Launch

My readers know that I am not fond of huge product launches, but there is no denying that they work.

This time I succumbed to the latest launch of Mike Filsaime’s Butterfly Marketing 2.0

In a nutshell, the main part of Butterfly Marketing 2.0 is a script that allows you to maintain a membership site and offer upsells when someone joins.  It’s a highly successful script that many have used to build their businesses and I am sure you have probably seen it in action if you have ever joined a membership site (even free ones). These are tried and true Internet marketers that have shown proof to the benefits this script.

The cost was $30. Well actually it was free with $30 shipping. Of course there is always more to it than that.  There is a newsletter you automatically get signed up for which is I think about $40 per month which can be cancelled at any time.

True to most major product launches, the site crashed and would not take orders.  This delayed ordering for about 5 hours. But Mike Filsaime did something I thing is extremely honorable.  There were supposed to be only 5000 of these free courses available – first come first serve.  With the technical difficulties, Mike promised everyone who wanted to order (I think within the next day or so) would be able to get a copy even if that meant he needed to get more made.

So in about 10 days I should get my package in the mail.  I mostly ordered out of curiosity and to learn from a master like Mike Filsaime. I am not too interested in a membership site as I had one in the past and spent way too much time on it. However, if utilized correctly it would take very little time to do.  Russell Brunsen has a method he teaches on hoe to do this. Between Russell’s course and Butterfly marketing I think you could have nice niche membership sites building you a nice list and income.

To Your Success!

What a week

I’ve had just an awful week.  I had to put my 14 year old puppy down on Tuesday and that alone is bad enough.  then me and my son were terribly sick with the flu for the rest of the week. My Internet was down for 24 hours and finally by email was down all weekend. – YIKES!

But I press on. and no more doom or gloom.

The Latest Product Launches:

Right on the heels of Frank Kern’s latest launch were 2 equally promoted launches.

The first was PPC classroom and the other was Ewen Chia’s book.  This shows you without a doubt that this style of product launch works. They both sound like decent products, and the bonuses for Ewen’s book that people were giving away made it seem like a no brainer. Unfortunately my to-do list is so long rihght now I did not really have time for either at this point.

Another launch that made some waves this past week was something that I think actually will benefit a lot of people. It’s a membership called EasilyAnswered.com and it’s unlike anything that I have ever seen.

For $97 month, you basically get access to a slew of top notch Internet marketers. This is a question and answers type of membership.  You ask your questions and the experts will respond – simple enough.

I wish I could remember all the names, but people I HIGHLY REGARD like Willie Crawford, Kevin Riley, Ross Goldberg are all on board.  Really if you need a regular amount of help then join. I don’t have a link as i am not promoting it, but seriously if you need it you won’t do better.

I made my first sale from the blog I created for Ed Dales 30 day challenge so that was cool.  I never finished the challenge as i really chose a bad topic for where the course went.  If I had known where the daily lessons were leading to when i started i would have chosen something else. But I did choose an awesome topic that is now listed highly in the search engines based on what I learned. Now I just need to monitize it better.

I was able to get 3 Squidoo lenses made this week, 2 in a new niche I am sort of excited about. Hopefully those start to bring in some traffic soon.
