Simple Ecovers Affiliate Program Now Live! 9 comments

For over a year, I’ve been running SimpleEcovers.com and have made it very successful.  I’m glad to announce that I have made my 3rd major change to the website and have now included a whole new look and feel along with an affiliate program too!

 

The site originally had simple Paypal buttons and just a few options to purchase graphics from me but now over a year later, I’m glad to see it grow to where I can finally add the affiliate program.  Now I’ve always hated websites that advertised right up front about affiliate programs because people would use my affiliate link to go to a site and then see that it offered an affiliate program.  Then my prospect simply signs up to be an affiliate themselves and then purchases the product with their own affiliate link

How Can I Help You Please? 27 comments

Over the past year or so I’ve been running my online business free from the boss that so many of you have in your daily lives.  I never thought that I knew enough about anything to create my own products and services but I proved myself wrong by creating and running a successful online graphics business.

 

Simple Ecovers makes me a full time living online but it’s time to switch gears a little in my journey as it’s time to do more than just graphics for people on the internet.  I’ve learned so much about mindset, customer service, planning, list building, product creation and more.  Needless to say my upcoming success will be dependent upon the continuing service I’ve always provided.

Giving Actual Service Is One Key To Success 7 comments

Hey everyone, it’s been a little while since I just sat down and wrote some hard core content.  No advertisements, no affiliate links.  Not even any recommendations, (at least not yet.)  As many of you know, I got my start online by giving away graphics in a forum of a mentoring course I took last March.  Since then I’ve grown my business by supplying other marketers with ecovers and website design.

 

FREE Viral List Building Website, The Viral Secret 9 comments

Hey everyone. I just wanted to give a quick post on a topic that seems to haunt almost everyone who tries it. It’s list building. I’ve been working online as a graphic designer for a while now and admit I haven’t done my due diligence in creating and maintaining a mailing list. Only recently have I been giving away a graphics pack to build my list.

 

I came across something that has given me 53 subscribers in just a few hours and by the time this post is up for 24 hours I will let you know even how much more it has grown.

Alex’s $10,000 Day Revealed 3 comments

As many of you know, Alex Jeffreys was my mentor and helped me to be able to quit my day job to go full time online.  I have sat through two of his coaching courses and watched as he transformed hundreds of peoples lives for the better.  Alex is not only my mentor, he’s my friend.

 

As this year winds down, Alex has decided to give what I consider the best freebie of the year and I’m not just talking about what Alex has given, I’m talking about the entire online marketing community as a whole.  Alex doesn’t just give you a bunch of rehashed marketing junk but what he’s giving away right now is actual coaching for free.

I just spent the last four days and five nights in the city that never sleeps.  Las Vegas is on heck of a town with the most beautiful and most amazing scenery of a city that I’ve seen in a while.  The funny thing is that when you stop to look closely around, you can see a different scene.

Most of you who come to my blog know that over the last few months I’ve been designing ecovers and minisites for free to Alex Jeffreys students and those who were needing help with getting their graphics done.

 

After some poking and prodding from those of you who like my work, I decided to launch SimpleEcovers.com, a website designed to give the online business owner vision for their products and services.  I failed forward creating my site and making it functional for all of you.

 

Where My Business Is Taking Me 22 comments

Over the past few months, I’ve been working this business online with the intention of giving as much as I can to a community of fellow entrepreneurs who likewise give of their time and talents to help me and others.  I have seen a social family emerge and if it weren’t for those people who continue to give their time and efforts to encourage and help others, I probably would have quit long ago.
