Impossible Tusk…

Sometimes you have so much work to do that you feel ike you won’t or can’t do anything at all.

So, how do you eat an Elephant? One bite at a time. Of course, it is an analogy for that list of work you and I must do.

You might feel like there is so much to do, that you can’t do anything at all. If you have got to this stage you need to take bite-sized chunks and just work through it.

I feel like this at the moment, but hopefully, I will regurgitate a few of the bite-sized pieces and make a dent in my Elephant

Here we go…

I like picking up new ideas and, amazingly, there is so much valuable training on-tap on the internet.

Marry that in with the excellent training provided here a WA and you should be laughing all the way to the bank. I recently watched a pretty good session with "Click Bank" titled ...

"What is the Hole in Your Sales Bucket"

Let me cut to the chase, and I promise I will not bombard you with 1 hour of "sales attack". Which is probably the best way to describe it.

The information/training was quite good and very positive but I wonder if these guys know what a complete turn-off it is to listen to a "sales interrogation"

In a nutshell, they were talking about "shadow sales funnels". And if you are like me, you have probably never heard of this, then again you may well have...lol.

Most of us have some form of sales funnel within our websites that hopefully steer people through a purchasing process. What the 'shadow sales funnel" does is overcome the trust issue.

When we are thinking about purchasing something online the one thing that I think about is "if I buy this here, will I get ripped off or not? Can I trust this person or this company?" Then I generally look up that person or company by doing a Google or Bing or whatever search.

The "shadow sales funnel" provides the information that the searcher is looking for. Namely, information about you and your social website pages, testimonials and what you stand for and against, and information about your 'tribe' or followers. Basically, as much info about you as possible to build up the level of trust to the tipping point where the reader is confident enough to purchase.

This information can be found on your website, through to all your 'social websites" If you Google up A.J Rivera you will get an idea about the amount of info that is provided.

My Google Search

I just did a search on my name …. And I popped up number 1 amongst a few other Stephens. I am the handsome one in the bottom right hand corner. lol, looking very “smarmy” lol.

Prince Partha's Potions pale.

As promised I said before I would provide an updated and easier-to-understand "Tip" from Parthas' past.

It goes like this....

Using Keywords to Rank.
I think it’s safe to say that there are quite a few one-person online businesses out there.
So, what we’re going to do today is find bloggers and websites, at a guess I’m going to say that they are all still in their…let’s say, first 3 years of business.
So, there will obviously be varying levels of skill, knowledge, and FINANCIAL success
So I’m going to show you how to find bloggers (just like us), who are in their first few years of business, and they are monetizing either with AMAZON or GOOGLE ADSENSE or PREMIUM DISPLAY ADS (Mediavine, Adthrive, etc.)
Realistically, these will be people who are already making money online, once more, probably at varying levels, but it’s safe to say that all these blogs we find are earning something.
Then, I will introduce you to a neat little trick.
We will use these blogs to find EASY TO RANK KEYWORDS & ARTICLE TOPICS.

There are 4 - 5 pages of notes with images, so excuse me if I do not include them in this blog.

And to cut a long story short....OMG, I really am mixing metaphors today...

Part of the whole "tips and tricks" had to involve downloading "Mozbar", "Whats my serp" or "Microsoft Edge extension"...

This is what it does.

MozBar extension

The all new MozBar V4 from Moz!

Last Updated - December 13, 2024 (Version 4.1.1)

Community Users get access to Domain Authority and Page Authority - up to 1,000 calls per month.

These are the Reviews

I do not recommend using it Mozbar

Unfortunately, now they collect Money and now paid this version.

Now everything is Paid and you also have monthly limits on the MOZbar.

Remove it as it as immediately

Completely broken, use to be a great extension that gave you a ton of info at a glance, now it doesn't work and lots more clicking around, bloated and useless.

Changed system

Sooo....They have changed this extension so it can not be used in the way Partha was using it, and the other extensions are the same. Never one for conspiracy theories..( There are little green Annunaki running around on the dark side of the moon" ) lol.

And there was also a need for the Google search bar to have an unlimited word count, but unfortunately, it is now limited to 32 words which completely stuffs up this "trick"

I can not help but think that this was done intentionally to stop exactly what Partha was doing. Albeit I will continue to play around with it and see if I can get some results from it.


The Only Constant is Change.

The only thing we can be sure of is constant change that not always works for us. Continually using and looking for tools that make our online business easier is, in my opinion, one of the ways to go. And with the great support from Kyle and Carson, we have at our fingertips (along with other online AI tools) the tools to keep us at the front of the pack.

P.S. I hope my sleepless befuddled brain has cleared enough for my frantic regurgitations to be understandable...LOL...

If anyone actually wants a copy of the pared-down Partha "permutations" please send me an address to send it to..


Frighteningly it feels like I am channeling Partha's prosaic permutations...arrgghh..lol.. let me out of here..


Have a great night..Night all.

Can't say I have tried them... but I will certainly be on the lookout next time I am ale shopping my friend! :-)

The name of the game is change.
So we must change with it.
Now that I know what a shadow sales funnel is, I will be interested in researching existing ones and trying my own.
