Making $100,000 A Week In Internet Marketing?
By Willie Crawford

For many people in Internet marketing, earning $100,000 per
year is a goal.  Many choose that goal because it's more
than what most people that they know earn, and it's also a
significant milepost.  It's a very worthy goal, but also
one that I think practically anyone can reach.

I see earning $100,000 per year as so easy that I put
together a little project to demonstrate not only that it
could be done in a year, but that it could be done in a
week.

Many people in the Internet marketing arena are very
skeptical, and don't believe that it's possible to reach such
lofty goals. They don't believe the "gurus" who tell them that
it IS possible if they just take the right steps.

Yes, there is a lot of hype in the Internet marketing arena.
However, there are also a lot of top earners teaching exactly
what they are doing. All one has to do is really listen, and
then APPLY what they are teaching.

To demonstrate how EASY this is to my audience. I decided to
publicly earn the magical six-figures not only in a year, but
in a week. At the time of writing this article, I had not done
this.  I'm writing this article on Sunday, February 26th, 2006.
On, Sunday, March 5th, 2006 I'll share with my audience proof
that I actually did it.

So that you can watch this seemingly miraculous feat unfold,
I'll share with you HOW I'm doing it.

It all started with my daughter announcing that she's getting
married in a few months, and that she wanted a NICE wedding. 
That triggered the idea of paying for the wedding with lessons
learned from some of the dozens of Internet marketing courses
that I've read over the past year.

If what these gurus teach is accurate, then I only need to apply
a few of their techniques, and I'll earn the $100,000 in only
a week.

The concept that I decided to put to the test was "the fire
sale."  In my circles, a fire sale involves selling a valuable
package of items so cheaply that people rush over to your site
to buy. If the package is really a bargain, it becomes
irresistible, and a HUGE percentage of your website visitors
will buy.

To test the concept and show how easy it is, I put together a
package of software, courses, ebooks, and resale rights products
worth over $4800. I bundled all of this up, and decided to offer
it to Internet marketers for less than $50.  At that price,
anyone  who needs any one of the items in the bundle  would be
crazy not to grab the whole package.

I should point out that to make the package really valuable, I
commissioned two unique pieces of software to include in the 
package.  This prevented people from questioning the value of
the package, since they know it's not just worn out products
that have been around for years.

I rolled a number of principles into this sale to guarantee its
success.

One technique that I incorporated was "reason why advertising."
When you do something out of the ordinary, such as having a
sale, you need to give people a plausible reason why.
Otherwise, they are skeptical and less likely to buy.  They begin
to wonder "what's the catch?"  My reason why is my daughter's
wedding.

A second technique I employed is leverage. My email list is
HUGE,
but I knew that if I could convince just a few other large list
owners to do a mailing, for a percentage profit, then I'd be
virtually assured of reaching my goal (and proving my point).
So I emailed, or called, about 40 Internet marketers that I knew
well, and asked them to do mailings for me. They ALL said
yes :-)

One reason that they all said yes is that I'd actually gotten
to know many of them, and we are friends.  I attend about 15
seminars a year, and that's where I often make those connections
that I've leveraged for this project.

Getting to know potential JV partners, and perhaps even doing
favors for them, before asking them for a favor, is akin to
"digging your well before you're thirsty."  It works.

The final technique that I used in this experiment, that I'll
share with you today, is that I created an event.  Actually, I
created two events. My audience will watch closely to see if
I reach my $100,000 goal. Many will also watch as I plan and
then go to my daughter's wedding. Sharing both of these events
with my audience builds connections, and also makes them look
forward to future articles and future issues of my ezine.

So now the challenge has been issued.  After you witness how
easily I use techniques, that YOU already know, to generate an
easy $100K, then I'll expect you to pull off something similar.
 
It doesn't have to be in the same way - you know dozens of ways
of doing it.  I'll point out some of them in future articles.

to generate this kind of moola, it's:
