This week I had the honour of shaking the hand and presenting a seminar on internet marketing to a man who knew John F Kennedy! 87 years young, and still a practising lawyer.
Today, I am preparing for a full days intensive training for a room full of 12 people. My favourite kind of teaching. Small, intensive and powerful. Here’s a sneak peek at the notes for today (you’ll have to turn your head and click to enlarge)…

An exclusive seminar for all business owners that want to get more out of their online marketing…
The Art of Blogging For Business
Presented by Ken McCarthy and Mark Attwood
November 16th, Cheshire, England
Back in 1994, Ken McCarthy held the world’s first Internet Marketing Seminar in San Francisco. You can see it on YouTube here:
Ken was the first person to recognize that the internet is a direct response medium. His students have gone on to make billions online over the past decade and a half.
Since 2003 he has run the world’s most highly respected internet marketing seminar, The System, in Chicago every year.
I had the privilege of speaking at Ken’s System UK Intensive in London in September this year.
I also gave Ken, a New Yorker, his first taste of the North of England by showing him around my home town of Manchester.
If you have no idea who I am, this is a clip of me speaking at the British Library in London in the summer of ’09. It was a 90 minute talk at Rachel Elnaugh’s “Marketing Magicians” event, and this is me talking about the long tail opportunity:
There’s more info on me here, here and here. (If the pages change, don’t worry, that’s just me split testing them).
Anyway – Ken was so taken with it, and so intrigued by the way I use blogs to generate income, that he suggested we hold a one-off, one day seminar on the subject in Manchester on November 16th. BTW: this is NOT about affiliate marketing or “Flogs” (fake blogs) or any of that stuff.
It’s about how real business owners can use readily available software and, mixed with the right strategy, can harness that power to generate more online reputation, seo power, traffic, indirect income and much, much more. Take a look around the testimonials on this site to get an insight into the non-Guru, non-BS approach I take to marketing education.
Then take a look at where this blog ranks for the term “internet marketing expert” on the UK Google server (this pic taken at 12.05pm on Saturday 17th October, click to enlarge):
This was achieved in a matter of a few months, almost accidentally, with no on-page SEO initially, with a blog that I only started in February, with much lower PR than other pages in the same niche and with less links than much of the competition.
It’s just one of scores of quality blogs I operate pulling in serious traffic and long term business growth.

There are only six spots available, and it’s first-come, first served.

To apply, please use THIS FORM BELOW only. To get full details on what one of my clinics can do for your business and to see a ton of video testimonials, go to my Internet Marketing Course page (but don’t sign up there, sign up below):
I’ll be closing the doors to this as soon as it’s full. If you miss out, you’ll have to go on the waiting list (although we don’t know when we’ll have time to do another at the moment). I can promise you that we will be having some special guests at this clinic, and the promise of a big bonfire complete with sticky toffee apples!
I just got my copy of the DVD of Rachel Elnaugh’s Marketing Magicians event at the British Library in June.
Take a look at it:
It’s a fantastic package crammed full of super-useful information from a diverse bunch of speakers, including me!
Royston Guest – a really useful and inspiring speech about how important referrals are in your business. I guarantee you are not doing everything Royston recommends, and you are losing sales because of it.
Thomas Mahon – a remarkable story of a tailor and his blog. Thomas was inspired to “start a conversation” on a blog. He did this – by blogging about what goes into making his Saville Row suits. He’s got a full international order book because of it. A superb lesson on how powerful blogging really is.
Me – I give away Waaaay Too Much Information in my talk. One attendee told me the other day that he’d halved his PPC budget and quadrupled his hits just from the adwords info I give on here.
Alan Forest Smith – from hairdresser to powerhouse direct marketer, Alan is a remarkable speaker.
Sue Stone – an inspirational talk from officially “the happiest woman in Britain”. Seriously, Sue has clients from all over the place and she teaches them to be happy applying the law of attraction and positive thinking.
Rachel Elnaugh – The First Lady of Dragons Den has been there and bought the T-shirt. Red Letter Days was an amazing achievement. The fact that it went down was heartbreaking, but Rachel’s fighting fit and gives an impressive talk here on branding that will inspire you. A true testament to the fact that being a successful entrepreneur is as much about how many times you can pick yourself up off the floor as anything else. Go and read Rachel’s book: “Business Nightmares”
Here’s a clip of me speaking at the event. There’s 1 hour and 20 minutes of me on the DVD.
There are some more clips in my Members Area, but if you want the whole shebang, I suggest you buy it today:
You’ll get a copy in the post within 14 days of us receiving the order. There is only a limited stock, so I’d get this valuable piece of business education as soon as you can. When you’ve watched it, feel free to come back and leave some comments here.
