Real AdWords Training Program In Singapore
Hello from the Seminar Room of the Lee Kong Chian School of Business in the Singapore Management University (SMU) at the Real AdWords Training Program!
The Real AdWords Training Program is the first of many workshops that I will be partnering up with my good friend and native Singaporean, Ewen Chia.
About four years ago, I first interacted with Ewen Chia as a customer of his many affiliate marketing products, and he was one of the first Internet Marketers I came across while learning the ropes of Internet and affiliate marketing.
It wasn’t until December of 2006 when I visited Singapore for the first time did I finally meet Ewen Chia in person in the restroom of the Shangri-La Hotel (yes, this was another JV restroom encounter haha).
We had briefly discussed working together then, but things finally got rolling again last November when we shared the stage at Fabian Lim’s Asia Internet Congress in Singapore.
As we continued our discussions over email, the birth of the Real AdWords Training Program was born, which is why I have the pleasure of working with Ewen Chia this weekend and the primary reason for this Asia trip.
The Real AdWords Training Program was a lot of fun to do in a sold out classroom format at the Singapore Management University.
I very much felt like a University professor in front of the room, and it definitely had an impact in helping make the workshop more hands on and interactive.
Because most of the room at the Real AdWords Training Program comprised of newbie Internet Marketers, in addition to the content delivery, we were doing a lot of hand holding, live demonstrations and Q&As.
And as with all of my workshops, I always encourage people to work on their campaigns as they learn the information throughout the weekend, and those who did actually got some pretty cool results.
There were students who built their first websites, designed their first landing pages, drove traffic to a website for the first time, and even made their first sale before the weekend was over!
All in all, I would say that this was a very successful event, and all the attendees of the Real AdWords Training Program had nothing but good things to say about the workshop.
Even though the Real AdWords Training Program was my primary reason for going to Singapore, I do have several more highlights from my trip.
For example, Alex Mandossian gave me a shoutout on stage at T. Harv Eker’s Guerilla Business Intensive (Funny quote from Alex Mandossian on stage: "By the way, if you really want to learn how to use Google AdWords… That guy over there who looks like he doesn’t know anything – he’s the guy who created their optimization training…")
In addition, Ewen Chia and Stuart Tan both took turns taking me out for exquisite local cuisines, meeting and training Ewen Chia’s team and Stuart Tan’s students, and tons of fun times at hanging out, drinking and watching movies with my friends Cassey Lim, Yanli Zhang and Benjamin Gay.
Although we weren’t able to capture every moment on camera (cuz it broke!), these are some of the good times we actually did so I can share them with you here…

Hey Simon,
Great site with great content! Keep up the good work man!
Nick – Thanks buddy!
Look forward to meeting you in NY for http://www.3sidesoftraffic.com
Hi Simon,
Indeed, it was both an eye & a mind opening session for me. I had chance upon the training program quite by chance. I was just toying around with my 1st blog just weeks before the session starts and was goggling on the web. One thing leads to another, and I found myself in the workshop next.
I’m very much a hands on person and learn as you go method suits me well. Coupled with “itchy and clicky fingers” a.k.a. “Try & Test” it out. Guess what my clicky fingers landed me some surprising result this time round. Sorry, I didn’t have the “voice” to share a testimonial towards the end of the two day’s session. I had a massive voice killer for three weeks! Nonetheless, here’s the testimonial for your Real AdWords Training Program in Singapore. Let’s keep it short and sweet the AdWords way. LOL.

Hi there,
It’s me again, been a while isn’t it. Guess what after that initial sale, I had drought for a while. I guess it quite typical of someone who’s new. During those dry seasons, I had calls from an attendee of the same course, still trying to figure out if adwords work.
Seriously, those thoughts are real especially when we are new. I only hope he had not given it up. I was still tweaking my ad and trying to figure out what’s not right, as well as to learn from others. I may have gotten 1 ad tweaked correctly, had a 2nd and 3rd sale coming in between 1st and 3rd week last month. (It’s not a high gravity product.) Stat looks something like @ 100 clicks/sale now.
Any thoughts of looking at adwords from the lenses of a newbie? I do believe there are quite a lot of questions that a newbie would have when they are starting out.
Gee, I think I’m going to add you on FB, since I’m there most of the time.
Regards,
Karen Chia
