He guys we did a beta run of our LIVE “Daily Show” and it went pretty well.
Below is Part 1. - Part 2 had Frank Kern.
Next week we will be adding even more cool stuff, but we wanted to do a test run to see how it would be received and we wanted to test our technology as well.
I must say it was a big hit.
If you want to know when the next show will be, all you have to do is follow me at http://twitterMike.com (See post below this one.)

Reason? This site will be something SO NEW soon and for our corporate stuff and blog and forum community we are going with MarketingDotCom.com

And yes, when my live show is about to go on, I will send a “Tweet” (that means I just made a Twitter post.) I will give the live URL to my show and you will see me and my staff working and having fun.
It will be like you are a guest in my office getting to hang out with me and my staff for an hour or so while we work, talk smack, talk marketing, and have fun.

We are jumping from a plane at 30,000 feet, tandem style, each of us with an expert.
We are matching the funds donated. As of now we have about $4400 raised so that means we are up to $8800 when we match.
We are asking everyone to donate anything as the funds go to help
young entrepreneurs in Africa through Richard Branson’s Virgin Unite
Charity.
The dive that Yanik and I are doing on July 20th will be one of the highest civilian dives in history.
It is called a H.A.L.O. for “High Altitude” and “Low Open” and it
will be 35 degrees below zero (F) and we will need special suits with
oxygen masks to do the dive or we would not be able to breathe.
The dive will last for 2 minutes and 30 seconds as we free fall to earth for this charity event.
Yes, I am getting nervous, but I am so excited I can not even really
worry about being scared. But I am sure when I get up there I might
just freeze. We shall see :)
For more information or to donate, please go here

All donations over $100 get special marketing gifts from Yanik and
Me. So make sure to help out and get some cool learning material as you
help these young kids in Africa.
Over the years, over 100 people have tried to rank #1 for this term in Google. While Brad slipped for a day or 2, no one has been able to take him down.
Yes, it is all in fun, but some people have tried very hard to take him down… including yours truly.
You see, in July of 2005, when Brad was telling me this story, I raced him to my laptop to register the domain name http://thecoolestguyontheplanet.com
I won! I got the domain purchased faster than he could.
Now, while I was not able to knock him off, at least I am happy to know, according to Google, I am the 2nd coolest guy on the planet.
Maybe in a few years (and if I really really try) I might just be the coolest guy on the planet.
After 1 week, I have shipped out over 10,000 copies of the Printed and Spiral bound copies of my new $297 product. The only thing is, I gave it away for FREE if anyone paid just the shipping and handling and signed up to test drive my new monthly magazine and newsletter.
That is over $3 Million Dollars in product value I gave away for free. Along with that I gave access to a free issue of my Magazine and 18 Full Color Process maps detailing the blueprints I use to run my Million Dollar Business valued at $197.
To top it all off, I I gave access to my $97 best selling product called “The Butterfly marketing Manuscript.”
That is over $6.2 Million Dollars in product Value given away to over 10,000 people in just 1 week… All to anyone that told me where to ship it.
I am not quite sure if anything like this has ever been done before, but we sure did raise the bar.
If you want to get your hands on this, click the video below to see if this offer is still available.
This official video, narrated by Yanik Silver (founder) is fun and really gets behind the scenes.
In this video you will see Jesse James, star of the hit TV show Monster Garage as well as all of the people that were on the trip. (Yes, there were 5 Mikes.)
You can even spot me wearing a DO-rag.
Later this week, I will be heading to Las Vegas to do a Triple Threat Top Gun Maverick Extreme Vacation. We will be doing a ZeroG Dive, as well as a Top-Gun Combat Simulated Dog-Fight, and on Day 3 we will be doing a helicoptertour to the Grand Canyon.
The guest business person will be the most popular person in the world of skate boarding. (It is in his contract that we can not mention his name. If you know anything about the world of X-games and skate boarding, only one name would come to mind.)
I will be getting videos for you to watch of that as well, but for now, enjoy this awesome video put together by the Maverick Business Adventures team.
If you were watching the first ever internet marketing reality show, “The Next Internet Millionaire,” then I’m sure you remember one of the highly favored contestants.
His name is Jason Marshall.
He was in the final 4 out of 12 contestants and requested to be eliminated from the competition even though he was favored to win.
Why did he decide to back out of the competition?
No one really knows for sure.
But I have a hunch that it was because he was meant to do bigger, more important things with his life…
…like help a young man named Petey.
Jason is working with Petey who has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
This disease is terminal and degenerates Petey’s muscles at a rapid rate.
The symptoms hit by 7 and at this point (age 12) he is in a wheelchair full time. He will then be on a respirator as those muscles get worse.
Life expectancy is early 20s.
He suffers so many limitations in his life. Jason wants to take care of what he can to help make Petey’s life a little easier!
This year he was able to orchestrate getting Petey a power chair and it has totally changed his life. The only problem is that they always went out places but now they can’t.
Jason can’t transport his chair with the current vehicle that he has.
So he’s doing a firesale to raise money for an accessible van.
That’s where your help is needed.
He’s managed to get top marketers to donate some of their best selling products towards this package.
Some contributors include:
* Me
* Joel Comm
* David Cavanagh
* 13 Year Old Affiliate Marketing Phenom David Wilkinson
That’s just a few of the many people that have contributed some incredible products that you can get for mere pennies on the dollar.
And all the money will go towards helping Jason to help Petey.
Go see what these guys and many others are doing to help them get the van they need for Petey to get everywhere he needs to go without any problems.
Today I came across a BRILLIANT campaign from Burger King where they tell their customers that they no longer sell the whopper. (Those of you in Australia know this as Hungry Jacks.)
They filmed their customers literally FREAKING OUT and you are then told to see how they freak out at WHOPPERFREAKOUT.com
They even give you embed code to place on your site. I am placing the video below.
I recently did a presentation talking about that fact that you CAN manufacture BUZZ and then when combined with keys to viral marketing, it can explode over the Internet in just days. They use a great catalyst with the television spots. Then along with humor and controversy, the buzz is created. Two very important factors in creating Buzz.And then, they leave you hanging for more, so you must go to the site.
After seeing the full video, you are then given a choice to embed the video and send an email about the site to a friend. (Which I did.)
Anyways, here is the video below, or you can visit the site yourself to see it all in action.
NEVER before in history could a REAL TRUE grass roots campaign have taken effect with JUST THE RIGHT message and and NOT the right amount of money.
Just 20 years ago, if you wanted anyone to hear you, you had to have the money in your party and not always the message. Or heck… you could have been like Ross Perot and bought your way into a party nomination
How may good presidents have we never seen because they did not have the money to go against people with deep pockets and lots of money pouring in from lobbyist?
Ron Paul has the right message (for many) as is obvious by his popularity with web savvy people (like me.) Yes, I even donated to his campaign and I wear his shirt on my little carton below (many of you picked up on that.)
But here is a person that, along with his team, REALLY AND TRULY get social media marketing better tha, honestly, anyone I have ever seen.
THEY ALL LAUGHED WHEN I SAID I WANT TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT…. THEN I RELEASED MY YOUTUBE VIDEOS…
Here is a guy that some would have laughed at 4 years ago because he had very very very little financial backing. TODAY, he as set a record for the MOST MONEY EVER RAISED in one day in the history of American politics! Way to go Ron!
I honestly feel, that you are witnessing the future of American and World politics. Finally GRASS ROOTS can get the message out.
But with that said, I think Ron Paul is actually 4 or even 8, or 12 years ahead of his time. He has changed the way politicians get the message out. Again, you need a good message to do it.
While I AM a Ron Paul supporter, I also encourage you to watch his marketing and how he uses social media better than any person in the history of the Internet.
He raised $6 Million in one day! Never had that been done before.
