Every business has its secrets - its special 'tricks of the trade,' - techniques and tactics that real money makers don't want other people to know about. But you're not going to find them in eBooks or at the typical Internet 'get rich quick' seminar.
 

It's almost impossible to figure out what is and what isn't good advice.  It's time to do something about that...

After working with many online marketers, I've developed a good feel for where and how most people get 'stuck.'

Part of the reason new Internet entrepreneurs get stuck is because they don't have enough information to go forward. Or, worse yet, the information they've been given is faulty or incomplete or both.

Unfortunately, an awful lot of Internet marketing education these days falls under this category.

The bottom line is you can't make money if you're stuck and a big part of the Smart Beginners course is to get you 'unstuck' and productive as fast as possible.

Unlike other courses that load you up with disconnected facts, many of which are out dated, the Smart Beginners course is designed to be comprehensive and up-to-date.  In fact, we’ve updated it three times since it was created.    

The goal of the Smart Beginners course is simple. It's to

1. Blast away all the Internet marketing myths that may be holding you back
2. Replace those myths with facts and real life truths about how the Internet business really works
3. Show you the exact tools you need to operate a successful Internet business and how to use them for maximum profit
4. Give you a step-by-step SYSTEM you can follow to improve your existing business or to get your new online business up and running and making money in the shortest time possible

It all adds up to increasing your sales and profits as fast as possible, or if you're looking for a business to start, showing you how to put your first business together so that it starts off on the right foot.
 

The Smart Beginners Internet Marketing Home Study Course was created by Ken McCarthy, an Internet marketing veteran who has been online since the early 90's and been in direct marketing for over 25 years, and two “newbie” turned pro online marketers, Howie Jacobson (author of the best selling Adwords for Dummies book) and Cindy Kappler (that's me). 

The truth is, the basic tools of Internet marketing are relatively straightforward and easy to learn - but unless you have someone show you exactly how to use them, it could literally take you years to find, test and sort them out on your own.

Why the name Smart Beginners?

First, because it describes the kind of 'newbies' who show up at Ken's System Seminars: smart, enthusiastic, and ready to work hard. The progress these folks make in a short period of time is nothing short of amazing.

Second, beginners who work hard, think smart and do what they learn are the ones who succeed.  The Smart Beginners course is built around making sure you know the fundamental skills needed to succeed online.  It's also built on the premise that you have to take action to see success.  That's why we teach you what to do, show you how to do it and then give you step-by-step actions so you can get it done.

We've identified THE FIVE KEY INGREDIENTS that are essential for success in any business online or off, but are missing from virtually every Internet marketing course we've checked out.

Very simply, the reason many people don't succeed in Internet marketing is because they're missing one or more of these key ingredients:

• KEY INGREDIENT #1: Understanding what the Internet business is really all about
  
  This is where at least 90% of the people who fail in Internet marketing miss the boat. They spend thousands of dollars and burn countless hours going down dead end streets and blind alleys because they're missing this information. As far as I know, there is no other place to go to get all the content we share in in this course.
   

• KEY INGREDIENT #2: Knowing how to find and pick the right opportunities

  This is the single most important skill in marketing. Get this right and the rest is easy. Get it wrong and nothing will work.
   

• KEY INGREDIENT #3: Turning traffic into money and getting the traffic you need
  
  This single ingredient is probably worth ten times the price of the entire HOME STUDY course. It answers all the basic questions people have about this essential part of Internet marketing.
   

• KEY INGREDIENT #4: Getting set up with the right tools

  Over half of the questions I get from Internet marketers have to do with tools, which ones to use and how to use them. Smart Beginners will get you started on the right foot and put the right tools in your hands.
   

• KEY INGREDIENT #5: Putting your progress on auto-pilot

  For a lot of people, running their own business is like having a low paying, high pressure job. It doesn't have to be this way. The key to avoiding this is planning.

  The old saying is true: "If you fail to plan, then you plan to fail." But in this case, we're not talking about traditional business plans. (In fact, you'll learn why a traditional business plan is a waste of time in this business and what to do instead!)
   

The Smart Beginners course takes you by the hand and accomplishes all this with you in just five fact-filled, no nonsense, jargon-free lessons.

That's right.

It takes only five sessions to completely transform yourself from a total Internet marketing 'newbie' to a Smart Beginner who is ready and 100% equipped to start making money on the Internet. (In fact, you can even start making money after your very first lesson.)

Why being dumb and lazy is an asset in Internet marketing (Strange, but true)

The Smart Beginners course will allow you to get all the fundamentals you need from the comfort and convenience of your own home. You can learn at your own pace and absorb what you need to know to make money online in easy-to-digest, bite-sized pieces.

One of the biggest concerns we hear from Internet marketers is frustration at the high cost of many products and services.  So we've priced the Smart Beginners course so that it's available to practically anyone who is serious about learning Internet marketing for real.

Not only that, but Ken's doing something that his accountant tells him is crazy. 

Remember when I told you he's the founder of the System Seminar?  It attracts the world's most talented and successful online marketers each year. They come as faculty members to teach and as participants to learn.

The System Seminar is an invitation-only Internet training. But as a Smart Beginner, you're invited and look what Ken is doing...

System Bucks are real, spendable dollars you can use to attend future System Seminars.

1. Sign up for the Smart Beginners Internet Marketing Home Study course

2. Pick either the full pay or the payment plan

3. Every penny you invest in your Smart Beginners course automatically becomes a credit in your SYSTEM BUCKS account which you can apply to any live System training.

By getting the Smart Beginners course you'll not only be advancing your Internet business right now, you'll also be accumulating savings for future System trainings.

In other words, every dollar you spend on the Smart Beginners course will do double duty!

Can you point me to any other investment you can make today that will let one dollar do the work of two? I can't think of one... and that's why I say, you'll get an immediate return on your Smart Beginners investment.
 

I don't know what your plans are. You may already have a business on the Internet now and may be looking for more cash. Or may be you are just getting started and want to make sure you get going on the right foot.

Surprisingly, this course has proven to be helpful to both kinds of people. We made sure we stayed on solid ground. No blue sky projections, no technical double talk, no theoretical "what ifs?"

Just the facts and nothing but the facts. How the money is being made - and most important - how you can join the party with maximum speed, minimum hassle, and virtually zero risk.
 

There will be many personal fortunes made in the next few years on the Internet. Unlike the razzle-dazzle hype-driven "dotcoms" of the "go go" 90s, these will be quiet, solid fortunes that won't disappear with the first stiff breeze.

But that's not the only reason for mastering the Internet business.

Unlike any other business I know, the Internet gives you the option of building a business around your life style.

Some of my colleagues are highly ambitious and are building empires for themselves complete with big staffs, offices and even their own warehouses.

Or you can take a laid back approach and be content with a simple, easy-to-run business that gives you plenty of time to goof off without taking a pay cut.

If you're a mom like me, you can give up your 9 to 5 job and work from home when the kids are at school or tucked snugly into bed. 

It's a nice decision to be able to make.

What would it be worth to you and your business to have a coach by your side, giving you tips and advice, and answering your questions as you set up and grow your online business?

As a Smart Beginner, you're invited to participate in our Smart Beginner coaching calls.  During each call, we answer your questions and we share new tactics and strategies that will help you grow your business even faster.  You'll get access to future calls AND access to all of the recordings and presentations that have already been done.  Just log into the Smart Beginner Coaching site and the information is at your fingertips.  

I run the calls and present the information myself or invite a guest expert to share their expertise and knowledge.  To date, we've held 28 coaching calls so there's a wealth of information waiting for you in addition to what you'll find in the Smart Beginners course. 

Here's what other Smart Beginners have to say about the Smart Beginner Coaching calls:

On the Smart Beginners Coaching site, you'll find recordings, Powerpoint presentations and PDF documents containing detailed, step-by-step information about creating an ebook, adding audio to your website, driving traffic with articles, copywriting and much much more. 

Here's the deal:

If in the next year, you come across anything related to Internet marketing "how to" that beats the contents of this course for value, thoroughness and usefulness, I'll refund your money cheerfully in full.

That's a one year guarantee.

And I know I can afford to make it...because I already know how well this course works in the real world.

Before the Smart Beginners course was made available to the general public, it was quietly made available for sale to nearly one hundred friends, colleagues, and clients. They were asked to put the course through a "test run" before we dared to unleash it with such an outrageous, unprecedented guarantee.

Our return rate so far: zero percent.

On the other hand, many of them e-mailed, faxed, telephoned or mailed in a testimonial without even being asked. In fact, one out of every five. If you've ever sold anything in your life, you know that that just doesn't happen very often with any product.

 

If you've ever had even the slightest inkling that there might be an opportunity for you on the Internet, this program will do more to help you turn that dream into a reality that anything else I know of. I guarantee it.

To your success,

Cindy Kappler, co-creator 
Smart Beginners Internet Marketing Home Study Course

P.S. Why is this program being made available at such a reasonable price when others that offer much less are are so expensive? Purely selfish reasons I assure you. I like having customers for life.

 

P.P.S. Remember, every dollar you invest in the The Smart Beginners Home Study Course becomes a SYSTEM BUCKS credit that you can apply dollar-for-dollar against tuition to future System Seminars.
