      Hi Eric,

      Thanks a lot for detailed information! Same problem to me I have many pieces of puzzles. I am working on B2B marketplaces like alibaba.com and as well have a E-commerce website. I would like to learn about SEO, Internet marketing and Link building to compete my competitors and take place on Goole’s 1st page.

      Best Regards,

      Hi Eric, great gesture you are making and I hope it will be a fantastic way for me and my wife to survive. We live in Argentina and both have been without work for almost one year now. Savings are almost gone and we need something to make money. For that reason I was wondering if it would be possible to receive your lessons faster. Like very fast. I have “all the time in he world” to read and learn them. Perhaps you could also share some tips and trics with us to start a startup faster. Sorry for this cry for help, but we are desperate.
      Hope to hear from you soon. God bless, Nick and Flavia.

      Thanks for being a “real” person. I appreciate that you didn’t show us shot after shot of how much you made on different clickbank accounts, etc. We could tell you have been successful. As a Christian I appreciate that you “walk the walk.” I look forward to learning from you and getting to know you.

      Hey Eric and crew, Hope all is well with you guys! No doubt you have been told already, the trainings are awesome!!! Thank you much. I just wanted to know if I can share these tips and training videos with my team mates and downline? I like getting a consent from people before I tap into their products and/or services and I like giving the originator the full credit. I wanted to use some of your videos in my autoresponder emails to train my team and refer them back to your website for more tips. With that said, I also wanted to find out if you have an affiliate program. Thanks again, and all the best!!!

      I am so sorry I wrote a book. I am just in panic mode. The box poped up and I just started typing. I read a bunch of comments and answeres. Something I should have said before. Thank you for doing what you have done I know my answeres are in there somewhere. I just hope I can find what I need in time. Time is what I dont have much of. I can go anywhere USA. If I have to in fact I am already planning it along with many other plans. But if I cant generate at least 8-9 hundred a week soon I will be in big trouble. But the part about opm, & opp has got me super excited about how to expand. this is Terry saying I am ever hopeful. Thanks Eric

      Eric, your videos are outstanding. My problem is that they take a long time to load. After they have loaded, I can view them easily. But I would like to eliminate the wait. Is there a way I can copy the videos to my computer so I can view without the wait?

      HALLELUJAH!! 1 023 099 Thank you’s. After 7 months of LEARNING but no EARNING I came across your website. I’ll only get my credit card tommorrow. Luckily – otherwise I would have been in serious debt by now. Just one quick question : Paypal is available in South Africa but you can only send money with paypal but are not allowed to receive money (apparently some SA Reservebank criteria not met) Is there any other legitimate way to get around this or will your system allow other payment processors that will work in South Africa? This is very frustrating – please help?

      I was really depressed this morning but now I
      feel a lot better. You really sound sincere
      and I’m looking forward to the next 99 lessons
      and will follow them to the letter.

      Keep well and warm regards.

      Hi Eric,
      It is good to know that I am dealing with a Christian person. Val Waldeck recommended you to me. I am a 68 yr. old who is mentally challenged by IT. I managed to get the above website going as a start and which I am rather proud of as it is the first time that I have started writing and I just cannot stop.My problem at the moment is trying to get some of the affiliate programmes that I have chosen loaded onto my site. Google Adsense does its own thing. I am also trying to do marketing by e-mail.
      Thank you very much so far. I have a feeling that I am going to enjoy your lessons,
      Regards Butch Hannan

      I have just read all the comments you have posted. It is both curious and sad that so many of us have had to go through such a painful process with the learning curve. Some of us were not lucky enough to be be born after the computer age began so for most of us, the curve was even steeper. I also agree which some who have been scammed and by scammed I mean really scammed. I have been in business for most of my life and although I found that as in everyday life, you must be careful of the scam artists, I have never seen the really blatent big time scammers as there are proliferating on the internet. I look forward to following your lessons with a peace of mind and hope that I can finally start to see some real progress in my internet endeavors. Thank you.

      Hi Eric,
      I have just completed lesson 1, did what you suggested and then started reading the comments. I eventually gave up, how do you make the time! I agree with all of the comments I read, so all I can say is, God bless you and your family. Best regards Allan.

      please,how do i participate in clickbank affiliate marketing because my country [Nigeria] is no allowed.thanks once more because after your first mail sent to me,my eyes open more on affiliate marketing

      Hello Patrick,

      Many affiliate programs pay via PayPal. Nigerians are not allowed to have accounts with PayPal because Nigeria has been blacklisted. So the best solution for now is to join only Affiliate Programs that issue Checks or make payments via E-gold, AlertPay or any other payment options assessable to Nigerians.

      Hello Eric. Why are you giving these lessons away for free? If you are an online business person, why would you want to create more competition? I am curious.

      Thanks

      As you will see throughout the lessons, I am monetizing them in several ways. One of the primary ways is simply as a personal branding tool, which has helped me build and expand my platform as an expert in this industry. Also, I plan on selling them in the near future.

      I’m a teacher and recently started selling electric scooters (ebikes) with an online presence. Actually, I only have an online presence, since I felt I could not afford a retail location. I outsourced my website creation and am happy with the overall structure and feel, but need to find better ways to reach out to potential customers and to persuade people to consider this new product.

      I’m looking forward to learning from your lessons! Thanks for sharing freely.
