As my Cathay Pacific flight landed in SFO after my 18 hour journey from Singapore to San Francisco, I turned on my Blackberry to hundreds of new messages accrued from over the past several weeks while I was in Asia.

Quite a number of them were sent recently by my buddy, Stu McLaren, who was pretty persistent in contacting me through emails, instant messaging, both the public and private streams on Twitter and even leaving me a comment on my blog

Poor Stu McLaren must’ve been freakin out, cuz he actually had me scheduled to kick off his annual Marketing Predictions Call, which is a virtual event Stu McLaren puts together every year to raise money for a charity called World Teacher Aid, an organization founded by his wife, Amy McLaren.

The reason I’ve agreed to volunteer my time with Stu McLaren is not just because Stu and Amy McLaren are my friends, and not just the mere fact that I’ll be training and giving online entrepreneurs 2009 insights that will help them learn more about Internet Marketing…

Even more importantly, I am taking this as an opportunity (especially in the spirits of the Holiday Season) to give back by helping out a worthy cause…

You see, Amy McLaren’s World Teacher Aid is a non-profit organization that focuses on bringing education to children by building schools and establishing feeding programs all around the world, as well as funding full-time salaries and supporting children in less fortunate countries like Uganda, Ghana, El Salvador and Kenya.

Every year, Stu McLaren holds an online fundraising event for his wife’s cause by interviewing the top Internet Marketers in the world, and this year promises to be the biggest one yet with four times as many volunteered marketing experts than last year!

I’m very honored to be a part of Stu McLaren’s Marketing Predictions Call this year, and will be sharing my Google predictions during my scheduled interview TONIGHT…

And over the next several weeks, expect a ton more amazing and pitch-free information and marketing insights for the upcoming year from literally some of the most talented and top notch Internet Marketing experts in the world!

Hello from Room 744 of the Renaissance Hotels and Resorts at Rex Wisehart’s The Capital Factor in Denver, Colorado!

As you may already know, I had spent over half of 2008 thus far in Asia to work on various projects to expand my business overseas.

However, what you may not know is that if it weren’t for Rex Wisehart’s The Capital Factor in Denver, Colorado this weekend, I would still be in Asia right now.

That’s because in addition to building and training my team overseas, several tradeshows that are relevant to my various businesses are happening right now in Hong Kong and China.

Instead of sticking around in Asia to participate in these events, I decided to return back to the United States early specifically to fulfill my commitment to Rex Wisehart to speak at The Capital Factor.

It was my first sales presentation in over 2 months, and it’s also my last one of its kind for at least the next few months.

The reason is that after serious consideration, I have decided to make some changes to my business, and as far as speaking is concerned, I am going to be a lot more selective when it comes to the event as well as the event organizer.

You may still see me on the stage from time to time at various conferences, but they will be much different – You’ll see what I mean in the upcoming weeks.

So why did I decide to make an exception for The Capital Factor, and was it a good decision?

Well, in addition to being great friends with Rex Wisehart, I knew that it was an event that I personally needed to attend to help build my own business.

And yes, I was right!

Not only did I have the priviledge to share the stage with some of the most brilliant business, finance, motivational and marketing minds in the world, such as Armand Morin, Rick Raddatz, Brendon Burchard, Jermaine Griggs, David Bullock, Wes Jankowski, Carolyn McCormick, Jim Arkebauer, Bob Smith, C.L. Osborn, Mindy Jones, Phil Winn, Darrel Hornbacher, Wayne Van Dyck and Dick Bruso …

… But I have also learned a ton of business related information and built new friendships with many top notch individuals who were in attendance at The Capital Factor.

I also had a ton of fun with The Capital Factor crew at the Rockies vs. Diamondbacks opening game at Coors Field on Friday, speakers dinner at the Tavern Lowry on Sunday evening, as well as at the event throughout the weekend.

The Capital Factor is one of very few events I remember in recent memory where I stuck around to watch presentations from the speakers, most of whom I have never seen speak before because they are in a different industry, and was able to pick up a ton of extremely helpful new information.

If you weren’t able to make it to The Capital Factor live yourself this past weekend in Denver, you should definitely get your hands on The Capital Factor DVDs so you don’t miss out on this amazing information.

After months of keeping my mouth shut, Rick Raddatz finally revealed the identity of his latest masterpiece:

Instant Teleseminar (Powered by Nfinite)

When I visited Rick Raddatz in Denver in February, he confessed that his huge project was in the works. Once we were up in the mountains at his Breckenridge vacation home, Rick gave a live demo of all of his products and services (including additional ones that are due to come out later this year!).

The one that I was particularly excited about was Instant Teleseminar. At the time, Rick Raddatz called the product Nfinite. But after giving it more thought, Rick decided to go with Instant Teleseminar to go along with his Instant brand.

I had the chance to talk to Rick Raddatz again this past weekend at Big Seminar, and he has added so many new features to Instant Teleseminar that I couldn’t wait for it to be released so that I can share it with you!

Finally, it has arrived…

If you have never heard of Instant Teleseminar, it is an extremely sophisticated new service that combines the power of voice and sound through the telephone with the unlimited potential of visual learning through web simulcast!

With Instant Teleseminar, Rick Raddatz has created a complete turnkey system that attracts prospects, build lists and increases sales.

Whether you already do teleseminars or don’t even have a product yet, Instant Teleseminar is a simple and powerful system that will take your business to the next level.
