As a consumer I have extensions loaded on browsers to that make sure that I never ever, ever, see any PPC. It is strictly banned from my online experience (a disliked with a burni
Ouf! For a second there, I thought you were about to sell your soul to PPC in return for cold hard cash. Not going this route yet either, but they almost got me with their infographic! (Yes, yes, did you notice it above the video, almost gave in, lol.)
Just came from checking my savings acc (I used to have 6 of them when I was corporate lol)... It needs resuscitation :~|... I have no soul to sell G, though am beginning to think about selling my furniture ;)
Haha, I've done that! Now I only have the basics, nothing left to sale, lol.
I hope your account gets a good defibrillation sooner than later!
Cheers G,
Interesting - getting back to basics hey (A Billy Bragg album quote, seeing as music has come up lately)...
Good amount of soul searching since the last comment (still didn't find it :) ). Though, did come to the realization that all this kit is just weighing me down... It's off to ebay today, I'm cashing in / or out.. I'm starting to like the sound of the 'digital nomad' lifestyle - time to shed some weight... Homelessness will be a fun new frontier. Better re-read a few Tim Ferris books :)
Yep, the new rich - It has nothing to do with material wealth, it's all about 'experiences'. Ironically most folk subscribing to this lifestyle that I've read about - have no shortage of cash, even though it is far from being a focus... I feel they are onto something - sustainable :)

Yup, I'm on to them too. Quite interesting lifestyle, resonates with my values. The cartoon "me" thanks you for noticing it's arrival to WA. Better than having a picture: no bad hair day, no tired look and you are portrayed much cuter than you actually are, lol.
Haven't considered it yet mate, but... I do like gaining some knowledge on it... sure am thankin' ya' Damien!
Yeah Kattie, I like a clean browsing experience. I don't wish for anyone to tell me what 'they' think I need - I'll do my own shopping thanks.
Alternatives to PPC are Solo Emails. I find them more cost effective. Also lots of free traffic through traffic exchanges is another technique if you don't mind surfing the exchanges to accumulate credits. To a lesser extent safelists could be also be used for free traffic; but can be a burden to manage.
Cheers, Mike for the input. I'd lean toward mail, though careful not to spam.
Regards, d.
There are many things I'd call myself before saying I'm an IM'er Guy. That would be WAY down the list, would not even make the 1st page actually. I think you may be assuming my friend, fair enough, this is an IM site - Though, I came here for other resources / reasons (just so you know).
Totally agree with you Damien. Even when I see a PPC on a Goolge search I will copy the URL and paste it in a new window, rather than click! I haven't gone to the extreme of installing PPC blockers... I find them as annoying and distasteful as ads on bus tickets, or on the back of your grocery bill!
Anyone under 30 probably would be wondering what the hell are we going on about Geoff...
I read, just yesterday how many thousand product brandings the average American sees in just ONE day - I was too shocked for my mind to remember the figure - & I'm not usually too bad with stats. I block all ads possible. They are easy to find if needed - which is close to never.

This guy's vid will give any entrepreneur something to think about (I'd hope);
http://goo.gl/JZCN6D
Runs for ~ 42 mins.
If you're mind's not ticking away by
That was an informative and actually quite amazing 42 minutes. Old is new, face to face and yet technical!
Well done, Damien - some food for thought here, for sure. The techy stuff is what I continue to battle with. Any previous success with sales has always been face to face. All this electronic intercourse stuff leaves me a bit cold and frustrated.
:) g!
Lol... Afraid i better keep my response to myself re your comment here George... Classic George is all I can say (this is of course a family show after all ;) ). d
Wow, imagine that... back to a hand written letter!!! I really like this Jason guy... thanks Damien!
Hmmm.... Santa Monica and 4'th... I would almost go back to work to experience a workplace like this!!! Catch a plane up here Damien, I'll pick ya' up at LAX and we'll go check this out! (-;
Only if you're the founder Randy...
Better get a move on!
I'll be waiting, & i don't expect to be flown commercial...
:D
Hmmm... I can see that you're a man with high expectations. I like your attitude, partner.... a lot!!!
Big dreams cost no more than little ones brother, & falling short on a massive dream is still probably going to leave the average successfully fulfilled dream in the dust.
All a mater of priorities of course mate. To a healthy portion of folk, bank balances, buckets of gold & private jets etc, are not what they dream about. Honesty, integrity, & loyalty are a few currencies that come to mind - You're a rich man my friend ;)
Always good to hear from you Randy, & I would sit around your camp fire, founder or not my friend!
Very interesting video and with a lot of good points to think about. Ha, just wish my day job would think like this. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Damien, thank you for info. You give, very wonderful to know the future entrepreneur going to be and very interest how to achieve.
My pleasure Happy & yes, this person has an interesting idea where things are headed for the entrepreneur.

Do you consider yourself a web professional?
Or want to?
If you're a new member to this site & are still finding your way around the online world in general,
Well, I am not considering I am the pro, but know a little bit about it.
Still lot to learn.
Evidently, learning is a lifelong ongoing never-ending thing. In other words, it is for as long as you are alive and well.
Ade
Thanks Damien. I like their definitions - and am very glad that Kyle and Carson have the expertise to make things comparatively easy for us non-technically minded 'oldies'.
Yes Isabella, it's a remarkable teaching skill to be able to simplify the complex.
Isabella, you can't fool me though, my very 1st or perhaps 2nd question here, a database question, was answered by none other than a granny :D. I was so grateful (& still am), for your help then, after several other's had little idea what I was actually asking - you nailed it!!!
Thanks - d
"Of all of the career industries, the Web profession requires perhaps the greatest cross-disciplinary interaction and development processes requiring the whole brain (left and right) connections."
That is what I like, I regard my knowledge as shallow and wide, but I love digging down to make things make sense, and to be able to make them work.
That said, I steer the heck away from some areas...Good one, D, good one.
Andy
I really enjoy your musings, your choice of words, what you chose to say and the extra likes you give me from time to time!
Dito to T here.
Spend your time on the 20% that gives you the 80% return, isn't that the natural rule of thumb Andy?
d
Close enough to most aspects, missing a few skills, hihi. Maybe that's why I'm still hoping to completely agree with the pay scale/salary. ;)
Constant change is the norm. That is so true!! Many years ago I was quite upset... I had learned what all the function keys did in Wordperfect and then Windows came along and MS Word and I had to start learning all over.... By now I am quite used to it. Not sure I'd go so far as to say 'I like that'.
So true, especially in this data age. I felt a little cheated as a graphic designer trained for print when the web came along. It's taken a while, though I enjoy the challenge now of transferring & learning skills.
It's kind of exciting to realize that you are in a group of humans, learning a particular thing for the first time in our evolutionary path.
Yup, Damien, and it's exciting to see how our children and grandchildren grow up with all this and regard things that we, some 30 years or so ago, would still have thought of as impossible, as perfectly normal.
Yeah well, every time I think I know what i'm doing something else that I am not familiar with comes up! A bit more to do before I can consider myself any where near a professional!
I think you doing pretty well now Terea.
With some of your responses I have seen from you given to others sounds professional enough for me to accept your advice. You have my respect. Maybe another reason why you're at 4.
Thank you, your words are very kind. I am good at learning and many people have spent their time teaching me. I just want to return the favor, and I make lot's of nice friends, which makes it all worth the time and effort!
I am very happy that you are 'clearing the learning path' in front of me, Terea. Have finally bought my first two domains and am now going to seriously work at this. Feel as if I'd just had a new baby - the same sort of worry that you might be doing it some harm through ignorance and inexperience...
It all comes down to accumulation & action T.
You personally are learning every day. You can surprise yourself how far you come when you're consistent over time. As an example, I started working with Ph0t*sh*p over 20 years ago & I'm still learning new tricks - I will forever, day by day.
Though, knowing it well enough to use reasonably well, may only need a few weeks of solid dedication, depending on several individual factors of course - everyone is different.
There is nobody who knows it all - just keep drilling in & learning new tricks. Your speciality will be fine tuned along the way.
