This year I’ve made the transformation from extremely busy high school teacher to full time marketer, and my business has grown in ways that I could never have imagined.
Regular readers of my newsletter will know though that I don’t measure my success by how much money I’ve earned, and instead I like to evaluate my performance by the number of people I’ve helped achieve their online goals.
You see, becoming a full time internet marketer was simply incredible, but helping others achieve their marketing dreams is what really makes me tick.
You can take the teacher out of the classroom but you can’t take the classroom out of the teacher!
I love helping others, and just because I’m no longer a high school teacher doesn’t mean I can’t now spend my time sharing what I know with the people who are desperately trying to establish an online business, just like I was a few short months ago.
When I was a struggling beginner one thing that frustrated me about online marketing was the fact that many of the people who were enjoying the most success stashed their secrets and never actually shared what was working for them on the ground.
Well, that’s certainly not how I want to do things, and it’s my sincere intention to try and share as much as I possibly can with my readers so that I can try and help people quit their day jobs in 2008, just like I did in 2007.
Which is why I’ve decided to break the rules a bit by giving you the opportunity to ask me almost ANYTHING about my online business, so that you can learn from my success and apply it to your own internet ventures.
What to know the single biggest reason why I went from zero to $20,000 a month in just 161 days? No problem and just ask!
Want to know how I managed to secure powerful and profitable JVs with the leading names in the industry, even as a complete beginner, and how you could do the same? No problem and just ask!
Want to know how I’ve built a wildly responsive mailing list that allows me to send out emails that earn me $1,000++ a pop, eight times a month? Great question so get asking!
I’ve achieved a lot over the last few months, and I want to share that with as many people as possible so feel free to ask me anything, and I’ll do my best to give you a cracking answer that reveals all.
Here’s what you need to do….
Think of a question that you’d like to ask me and then post it in the comments below. And if you can’t narrow it down to one question? Not a problem, and feel free to post as many as you want!
I’ll let this run for a few days and then an independent judge will select the best 10 questions and I’ll answer them all in glorious detail.
My answers will be compiled in a FREE book which I’ll send to my subscribers early next week and it won’t cost you even one cent!
This is going to be a FANTASTIC free book, and if you ask the right questions below then you’re going to get an absolute killer freebie that will reveal my deepest marketing secrets, and which will show you how you can duplicate my success.
And here’s where it gets really interesting….
This will be YOUR book and you get to control the questions that are asked on the inside, but I really don’t want to stop there.
You see, I appreciate you taking the time to post your questions below, which is why the best question will also win a massive cash prize too!
Above you can see a money jar that I’ve been filling up during 2007, and the person with the best question gets the lot.
Now, I’m guestimating there will be $172.67 in this jar, which is not a bad prize for asking a quick question on a blog!
Once the winner has been picked I’ll count up the money, and then I’ll send you the balance via Paypal since I figure that the costs of sending the jar would probably exceed the value of the money on the inside. 
And of course, if the contents is less than $172.67 then I’ll just make up the balance myself, and if it’s more then you get to have an even better New Year!
I’m not going to bore you with a massive list of judging criteria though, and all I’ll say is that the question which is likely to provoke the most insightful, valuable, and revealing answer, will win the cash prize.
And that’s pretty much it!
I’ve enjoyed some huge success this year, and now I want to continue by sharing all that I know with others. This is a fantastic opportunity to pick my brain and ask all those questions which have been knawing away at you for months.
And don’t forget that you can post UNLIMITED questions too, and the more questions you ask the better your chance of success.
I want to make the free ebook that follows an incredibly valuable resource for all my subscribers, so please take the time to post a question now.
And who knows….your question might get featured in my next free viral ebook AND you might win a big jar of money too!
Post your questions below now and I can’t wait to read what you come up with…

Hi Lee
I am wondering what are the tools and how do you use them on a daily basis in operating your IM business?
Best wishes,
George
Holy cow Lee! We’re going to keep you verrry busy with all these questions.
That’s going to be some ebook!
Lee,
I have not taken the time to read all the questions
You have gotten quite the response 
… I know I’m not the only one with information overload!! Too be honest I may have read the answer to the following someplace, but with IO I just can’t remember now… So here goes; Is there an ebook, report, paper etc. that lists 1. Get autoresponder 2. Get a delivery system 3. etc. I make lists or I’m all over the place. Heck maybe I’m giving someone an idea for a Ebook or report.
I know there is room in this for all of us, I’m just having a tough time getting started.
Thanks,
Keith
Hi Lee I would be very interested in how you got started and your secrets to your success
Hello Lee,
I’m amazed by the response you have had to your competition. I will probably get a few answers to my questions from those already posted and a few more.
My main questions:
1. Having seen the number of questions raised will you answer more than 10 in detail?
2. How much time do you spend answering emails from those on your list?
3. Have you met John Thornhill?
4. Is it necessary to have a lot of technical knowledge to do what you have done?
5. Is eBay an essential part of your success?
6. Is it essential to have a list and why?
7. How frequently should one contact those on the list?
8. Can my ordinary pc from PC World cope if you helped me to be successful too?
9. There seem to be plenty of ebooks on offer but what are your views on ebook readers such as the one launched by Amazon in the US?
10. If there is one piece of advice you could give me to be successful too what would it be?
I have been in direct selling most of my adult life and I once attended a Tack Selling course in London where they said that to be successful in selling you simply had to make it easy for the customer to buy, I think you put that into practice by what you do – please keep doing it!
Looking forward to hearing the result of your competition.
Happy new year Lee,
Stuart
Hi Lee,
Wonderful idea and you have a lot of worthwhile questions already to answer.
I was touched by AJAY’s questions above – I would respond to them.
Regards, Kevin
Hi Lee, I would like to know if it is possible to earn a good living with one niche/website or do you need to have several? How do you know when you are ready to move on to the next money making project?
How do you find the time to put into your business being a mom of two boys and a new neice I have custody of I hardly can find enough time?
How does one stay focused, Step by Step?
Thanks
Denise
Hi Lee,
This is a wonderful idea! I’ve seen a lot of marketers use surveys to get feedback but this way people get to see the questions that everyone has and know that they aren’t alone in wondering what or how.
My question is…
Would there be any chance of you writing about your own experiences – from the very beginning up until now? I mean, in detail including thought processes and reasons why or why not for everything so that it’s kind of a “you are there” experience for the reader.
The reason I’m asking that is because it would be very difficult for you to give me an answer to my marketing questions that would suit me personally since you don’t know anything about me. But – you know yourself and what you did very well and I always learn so much by reading about or watching other people, what they do (or don’t do) and why.
I don’t know anyone who has had the kind of success you have so having the privilege of reading your story would be like seeing the beautiful bright sunrise after a long night of groping in the pitch black darkness for me.
Thank you Lee!
Lynn
Lee,
I have a website & domain name now what?
I look forward to this report I have found you articles & information inspirational Thanks
Hi Lee,
I have 3 questions:-
1) For anyone creating their first info product, would you consider it’s primary purpose to be to make money or to build a list to monetize?
2) Although I see the merits in info products because they make money and build a list simultaneously, the actual product only has a limited shelf life before sales start tailing off. Would you therefore recommend membership sites or software products as a better long term business model?
3) What’s the best way to incentivise people to distribute a viral ebook?
Cheers…Graham
Ajay – please do not apologise for your comments. They are from the heart and I completely understand your entire sentiment, and I know exactly where you are coming from.
You make some valid points, and you’ve raised some extremely interesting arguments, and I hope to address these in the coming weeks.
I find myself desperately wanting to reply to each and every post, but it simply isn’t possible or I’ll never get the free ebook done!
I never expected such a powerful response, and I’m so grateful to everyone who has submitted some questions.
Now I just have to pick someone to choose which 10 will make it into the book, and which 1 gets the cash prize.
This is not going to be easy, and I suspect that choosing someone to pick the winner will be hard as well!
Thanks again and keep them coming….

Hi Lee,
Okay, so here is my question. What was the very first thing that made you a steady income on the internet and what exact steps did you take to get there?
What are the three most important things you need to suceed as in internet business man/woman?
There are a lot of scams on the net and when getting into business it seems as though most people get scammed at some stage. If this happened to you, are you willing to specifically name and shame the scammers that you know of?
What were the three biggest mistakes you made when getting into online business?
If this question is the best, will the money be converted to Australian Dollars?
Hi Lee,
I have a lot of “guru’s” providing me with all sorts of “free” information. Unfortunately I have found that when they do share the specifics of how to start earning income, all the links are invalid for me as I live in Australia and can not use a lot of the methods/products/resources that they provide. I am willing to put in something more valuable than money (as I have none) I will put in time.
How do I start from scratch in Australia?
Do you build all your websites etc yourself, or do you have them done professionally?
I have heard many people talk of “what they did” to earn income, will you tell us precisely “how you did it?”
A lot of people for example might know that you may have used affiliates, how do you go about getting them etc.
Lee,
what are your top 3 tips for focusing on one particular thing, instead of switching around all over the map and making no real money?
Lee, By the responses, you are sitting in front of the largest classroom you will ever have. All with their hands up saying “Please Sir” and for a change all the class are eager and listening. Remember most are in first grade at “Earning a Living on Line”, once you have dealt with us you can go on to the “advanced classes”. I think Ive just given you an income for life. Good Luck.
There is a huge amount of Marketing information out there, and many of us are now on the Lists of many, many knowledgable experts. While few match up to your consistent level of quality, these ‘gurus’ regularly send us emails packed with useful information which often seems indispensible, and yet we cannot read much of it and still have time to get our own thing going.
I suspect this is a widespread problem for people who are just starting out, and possibly for more experienced marketers too – after all, even experts such as yourself need to keep abreast of what’s going on in the fast-changing world of IM.
So we’ve all got to be very choosy as to whom we follow. Obviously this will depend on our own field of endeavour: if we seek to be super-affiliates, say, we will choose different mentors from those who want to make it big in ebay, or product development.
There are a number of main IM areas, and my question to you would be which few people – aside form yourself of course – you would recommend for each, to give us valuable information regularly and yet still keep our email and blog-reading time to a sensible level. In other words, whom do you think we really can’t do without?
My other question is how on earth are you going to sort out only ten questions from this amazing collection?!
My question is simple, straight forward and like much of your advice…no nonsense!!!
CAN I HAVE THE MONEY PLEASE LEE?
A quick justification…this money will give ma a little float to buy into some of the things you have said I need to obtain to start my life as an internet marketer such as web hosting, name, and an autoresponder and maybe some fancy graphics for my first venture.
I hope this question will have a positive reception as it involves doing and not just talking! Give me a helping hand and I will let you and your readers know how I am getting on….
…..go on you know it makes sense
……………go on think of the spin offs that you could make from giving the prize to me…..the follow ups……maybe a whole ebook……
…..think of the leverage you could get……win-win!!
GO on Go on Go on
Just so I don’t get lost in the shuffle…. Minimum configuration/ hardware needed for my desktop/laptop to start and grow a multilevel, multiniche, mulitisite web presence and the ability to keep all the balls in the air including creating cd’s and dvd’s and manipulating video and digital images.
What do I need to stop crashing and hanging up? Do I really need 2 gig processor or will 1 gig do? Thanks
Have you bought your own server yet? When did you feel the need to do that? When you went with a membership site?
My question is can an absolute “newbie” with little capital and computer knowledge really grow a business from scratch.
All the emails I have thus far been sent have said to me “you need to do this, buy that and sit back and relax” But it seems too easy, has jargon a newbie can not comprehend and looks just like every other scam. Will you please write an ebook for the newbie who knows nothing with specific steps as to how they can make semi decent income online?
My question is- Are successful internet marketers made or born ? It seems to me that you either have the inbuilt skill to succeed online or you don’t.
This is true of lots of businesses whether online or not.
Do you think this is true? Or can you convince me otherwise.
Respected Sir,
Thank you very much for replying to my post.I am extremely happy to know that you are going to solve some of our problems.I do not know whether I will be on your list of free ebook recievers,or not.But I know one thing for sure,that I will positively buy your book,as it will have addressed some of my problems.Of course, buying a book,means earning some more slave dollars! But in this part of world, we are NOT afraid of hard work!It may take some more time.But I am sure your book will be worth of putting all that hard work
and time invested in waiting. Thanks again. AJAY
Hi Lee,
I am one of the older generation, hoping to secure myself a decent pension through internet marketing. I was inspired by one of Sara Brown’s viral ebooks which I bought on ebay out of curiosity and still think it was the best 99p I ever spent. I have since spent 2 years reading ebooks and trying to get the courage to go for it. From where I stand it seems that many of us won’t start because we fear failure. Here are my questions:
1. Did you have many failures/flops when you first started out and how did you find the courage and conviction to keep on trying?
2. Did you find yourself, like me, spending a lot of money on bad ebooks and how did you sort out the wheat from the chaff?
I have read all the questions above and would like to suggest my own top 10:
1. By John Szram: “If you had a budget of precisely ZERO dollars what would be the first thing you would do to start generating an income using free resources?”
2. By Bonnie: “Where would you tell us newbies to start?”
3. By Vern: “What is the single most important advice you would give to the struggling/new marketer who wants to quit their job and make real money online?”
4. By Tam: “What are the three biggest mistakes you made when getting into online business?”
5. By Paul Duxbury: “What was the big mistake that taught you most?”
6. By James Garvin: “What was the biggest obstacle you had to overcome in the beginning?”
7. By Peggy Baron: “How did you, Lee, go about building your list from scratch?”
8. By Nathan: “What are your top 3 tips for focusing on one particular thing…?”
9. By James Garvin: “How much time per week did you spend building your business compared to how much time you spend on it now?”
10. By Thomas Wilkinson: “Have you ever had a product surprise you and do a big bellyflop? Did you ever figure out why?”
By far the most popular question seems to be asking for a blueprint to getting starting in the IM world.
Looking forward to the resulting ebook, Lee. Keep up the excellent work, you are an inspiration to many. Thank you.
Hi Lee, I’m retired and live on a small pension. I don’t have the resources to buy much to set up my business. So, my question is how do you set up an automatic system and how much does it cost upfront?
Thanks and have the best of the new year.
Gordon
Hi Lee,
You really need to have your own products as you say in your membership site. Then you can look for affiliates to help sales.
Hey Lee,
Here are my questions:
1. How did you started it all?
2. How did you got your first visitors (what technique did you used)?
3. How did you got your first sales?
4. How did you find great deals?
Thanks.
Peter
I supppose one of the main reasons why most fail to start is fear of failure itself. For me however there is the constant fear that I might be accused, perhaps inadvertantly, of spamming and losing my ISP. The problem is most acute when you have no list,no idea how to create one and are contantly bing told “The money is in the list” For any business there is the need to attract customers,easy enough if you have thousands of Dollars to spare but how to do this on a shoestring? I don’t know how geneuine you are, that can only come with experience,but I have found that the offers that are made from the States in the main usually offer something free or relatively cheap then bludgion you with an up sell that you cannot do without, or so the sales pitch goes. Why cannot the so called gurus help clients with ways to make a little money to then have the oppotunity to buy the upsell if it is genuinly helpful.Most want to kill the golden goose before it has had a chance to produce anything let alone a golden egg.I suppose That the question I am asking in reality is – where does one start?
Hi Lee,
I have a question, so here it is:
In your estimation, after considering
the experiences of others, and your own
experiences, what is the most important
“character trait” that a person must have
if they are to make a living online?
Thanks!
Laurie
I know one thing to be a successful salesperson, you must learn to ask the right “questions”. That is my questions to you. To sell anything you must ask the right questions. What are some good questions to ask your buyers/customers.
Thank, Joey T.
Dear Lee,
I am a newbie.
Every successful Internet Marketer shown report of how the make thousands of dollar online.
Can you show me the ways How I can make just $100.00 daily from the Internet, please?
How can I see your answers to these questions? Are they posted on a web site somewhere accessible?
Thanks,
