      Eric,
      I just finished lesson 1.
      I’m impressed with your “background type resume” and I want to let you know that I learned about eMail filters from this lesson, something I never paid attention to before.
      You’re right on target with information overload and I am looking forward to experience “putting the puzzle pieces together.”
      Indecently, with yahoo there is a filter selection in the actions tab of the eMail, that practically automates white listing a eMail
      Blessings,

      Hello Eric,

      I appreciat you no-nonsense way of presenting your message, especially when you give proofs without the hype.

      I also appreciate your little sidetrip in mentioning your missionary trips and church giving. Today, the combination of character and expertise helps build confidence.

      Guess that’s why yor “Real Guys” offer touched a nerve and sold rather well. I was just able to get in before the deadline. Some of the fake guys have the expertise but use that improperly.

      Anyway, I’m looking forward to these lessons so that I may be able to help myself and others through these.

      Blessings much!

      hi Eric, i am new to internet business and from what i have seen these few days, it seems one would need so much money to be successful in this business because of some people i have come across showing me too many things to buy. i want to know what someone who doesn’t really have a good medium of income at the moment should do atleast to get a little from internet business without requiring so much money to invest as a beginner. thanks for your kind guidance.

      Hi Eric, I am so glad I found you guys and like you said overload of information but you don’t know where to start or started but nothing is happening yet means no money coming yet. Only know some Affiliate Marketing but because cannot spend money at this time only with Free marketing and we’ll see but hopefully I will know how I have to do with you showing step-by-step that will help.

      Eric, thank you for putting together these lessons to hel me. As you said I did have information overload and did not know where to start. I am thankful to hear that you are a Christian. I got a good feeling about you when I began getting your daily emails. I already have my folder made with your emails. God Bless, Cynthia

      Website I did not have it yet. The first three days I was waiting for my account code and pass code since there were few codes I tried and not succeded. To day I finished lesson one with Eric. I still have a lot to learn. Now I need to start building my Website…With the help of others for I am brand new, but old in age (73).I will survive all this since I survived the heat of the Arabian Gulf for 24 years, and now I am in the cold winter of Calgary, Alberta

      OMG! Where have you been all my newbie life!!??? After being a victim of the “guru’s and sharks” for the past 2 years my awareness level, commitment and focus are laser sharp. Look forward to your tutorials to change my financial destiny.

      Hello to everybody! I’ve heard the first lesson. Very motivated. I am undecided to take action because i am 73 years. Also i have the impression that i have to invest hundred of dollars to have some success.

      Hello Eric,
      I have also tried many things on the internet to earn some money. Over time, I also lost a lot of money due to scams. A lot of times I didn’t know what to do, so I took too little action. Well, I hope that this has all ended, now I have found you, the Real Guys. The way you presented yourself to us really built up a confidence in me (and others, I guess). So I almost lost hope to get an online income. But I trust you, and I hope I will succeed this time. It would be a miracle to me. Thanks for your honesty, and I do hope we all will achieve success with your help.

      Hi Eric:

      Starting today-NOW-with your #1 Lesson. Yes, I am one of those “analysis paralysis” guys.

      I intend to come back regularly and post here my progress (if any) after actioning your tips.

      Thanks in advance.

      Best,

      Eric, Thank you so much for this generous information. I appreciate your systematic, one-foot-in-front-of-the-other approach. It’s such a relief and your teaching style is really nice. Thank you again!

      Hi Eric, I think this is for the first time I’ve seen and heard the internet marketer didn’t talk hype. Honestly, it made me peaceful. As a newbie (and especially not a native speaker), with little competency in English Skill: reading, writing, poor vocabularies and structure, even in conversation, WE (most Indonesian people) often have something like a handicap to express our ideas etc. What should we do to ignore the barrier?

      Hello Darminto,

      You might want to consider marketing to other Indonesian people in your own language, instead of English.

      If have have any trouble learning from sites that use English, you could translate the text into your own language using this tool:

      Great intro video. It really struck me how much benefits Online Business can bring to one. Information overload has been the cause of me wanting to do but can’t do.I hope to learn from you & be successful & be able to one day give back to society.

      Hi Eric. I came to learn about you through your ” Real Guys Promotion “. I signed up for your “Tips” but didn’t know that I would be receiving more than I gave. Your partners said you are the go to “Tech” guy, and now I know why. I am impressed with your honesty, and thank you for not trying to impress us with how much you make and with your “toys”. I am looking forward to learning from you and thank God that I found you.

      Hi Eric!

      Well, you are the end of the line for me! Ive tried to get an online business going for quite some time now.I found you on Warrior Forum and decided Ill give it one more honest shot. You are so right on about there being so many of us out here with an overload of disconnected information and don’t know how to apply it. It’s refreshing to see someone who really cares and wants to help others build on a solid foundation through the material you offer here at Eric’s Tips. Thanks for all you will be offering to those like myself over these next months through your continual dedication of helping others “have a life”.

There seem to be a problem with the mail delivery system of my email because i last received your lessons on the 19th of March and it was Lesson 80. Please my you kindly resume sending the lessons begging from Lesson 81 because they are so educative and helpful. Thanks a lot.

      Try looking for a folder called “untitled” That is where it will be if U didn’t give the folder a name. Or, U may have to scan thru all the folders. #3. Resend the lesson.

      Thank you Eric,
      I have been trying to get through the jungle of overload for a while. I have been blessed with many blessings in my life through some recent challenges.

      Your straight forward information and the lifestyle you lead is the exact life style that my wife and I have been working toward. Thank you for wearing an Apron to serve, rather than a Bib to just be fed! Looking forward to the miracles that keep occuring.

      Good afternoon Eric. Great information about how to make money on line is hard to come by. Most of the information is just part of what a person really needs to make a go of it, no matter what the nitch is, but this is different, as we are given all the information, so I also thank you.

      Looking forward to the next lessons. overwelmed right now with all the information i have downloaded, but I’m sure it will come together over time. legit marketing is hard work,takes time, effort, and knowledge, to build; not like those scammers out there with their one button push software programs that say you can make millions. Ha, really? I am glad to find your page.

      Hi Eric. I just signed up not long ago, either with the email I put or my other email. I still need to watch the vid put as I was reading the posts something popped up and I need to go. I thank god for giving me enough time to make this post. By what i have seen and read i can already say you are doing an awesome job. I have a questions. I have started to prepare my own online business and I will be using your vids to help me along the way. I read your post saying that you are going to put all the vids on to a DVD. Could you email me what else you will put on the DVD, what it will come with and how much it will cost? I need you to email me (also with one I can respond to) because I have a few big ideas in mind, and even though there may be some disadvantages or risks, I see that the benefits of my idea (if it works) will be bigger than the disadvantages and we can both thrive on the fruits together. Please email me. 🙂

      Hi,Eric!

      First of all, I want to thank you for sharing the big knowledge you have. I am from México, and as you said in the video, ¨most of the time we are paralyzed by so much info, and don’t take any action´.

      I hope to be able to put into practice what I am going to learn with you.

      May God Bless You And Your Loved Ones.

      Awsome Job! Thank you for taking the time to put this course togather. And not even charge for it, that right there makes you more creditable then any one else. Most these guys claim they make all this money and they can teach you how….for $50 or something but yet if they can how come they have to sell their info. Nice Job Keep It Up, God Bless
