Why didn’t someone tell me?

Ken says,”Have you ever found yourself thinking this…

“I wish someone told me that a long time ago.”

A colleague just wrote to thank me about a little “tweak” to his thinking that’s already made a HUGE difference in his performance.

It’s amazing how often it’s the little things – the “throw away” ideas – that make the biggest difference in the profitability of a business.

That’s why I always keep my radar on.

I never know where the next great idea is coming from.

***** The plain fact of life and business is…

There are a lot of pieces to the “success” puzzle.

It’s one of the things that makes business so challenging (or interesting depending on your point of view.)

But there is an OVERVIEW that makes it easier to put all the pieces together.

Over the years, I’ve helped a lot of marketers (including a lot of big names) stop spinning their wheels, get out of their ruts and get financial traction.

The amazing track record of System Seminar grads shows that there’s something VERY DIFFERENT about the way I teach – and that difference is my PERSPECTIVE on business building that you probably won’t find anywhere else…at any price.

This past summer I decided to collect all the major “aha!” moments I’ve experienced over 30 years of making money – many of them I’ve never heard anyone else talk about.

I soon realized they’d be valuable to others so I organized them into a one day workshop called The System Intensive.

I’ve been getting a lot of questions about the System Intensive, so I thought I’d answer them all in one place:

*** Question and Answers about the System Intensive

1. How does the System Intensive differ from the System Seminar?

Answer: The System Seminar is the big annual conference attended by serious Internet marketers from all over the world.

It has 25 + faculty members, runs over three days, costs thousands in tuition (depending on when you sign up), and requires that you fly to Chicago. Last year over 400 entrepreneurs attended.

The System Intensive is me, for one day, and – as an experiment – I’ve been taking it around the US and Canada and offering it locally to groups of 30 or less.

2. What do you cover in the System Intensive?

Getting traffic to your web site, converting the traffic you get, and monetizing the customers you have at the highest possible level.

Thanks to the System Seminar and other quality educational programs, there really is no mystery any more about the *mechanics* of Internet marketing.

The *details* of what you need to know are literally an open book.

As just one example of many, System grad Howie Jacobson just published a mass market book called “AdWords for Dummies.” There is more hard-hitting, practical info in Howie’s book (for just $24.99) that you’d get from most multi-thousand dollar “mentoring” programs.

And Howie is just one of dozens of experts who’ve mastered one or more parts of the puzzle and is sharing them openly.

But even with this great technical info, there’s still one BIG thing missing.

That’s the insight on how to put all the pieces together into a business that makes money.

I can’t count the number of Internet marketers I’ve met who know way more than me *technically* but who don’t know how to put their knowledge together into a money machine.

As I’ve talked with these folks over the years, I’ve identified major, but common, holes in understanding that hold most entrepreneurs back from the success they’re capable of.

3. What’s included with the Intensive?

First, the one day Intensive.

But that’s just the beginning….

* You also get your own copy of System Smart Beginners. This is the 15 Hour home study course that covers the essential details of Internet marketing that everyone beginner and pro must know. (We normally sell this for $495.)

* You also get 59 days of free access to the System Club site, the ultra-exclusive archive formally for System Seminar graduates only. Dozens of in depth audio trainings on every subject under the sun in online and offline marketing from world’s leading marketing experts.

* And if you’re a beginner or someone early in your your Internet career, free access to the System Smart Beginners coaching program.

These special “extras” are only available to you if you attend the System Intensive. There’s no other way on earth to get them free (or even at a discount)

If you’ve been looking for a way to break out of a rut or you simply feel ready to take your business to a higher level, no one has a better track record than the System.

I hope to see you at one of the west coast System Intensives.

Best,

Ken McCarthy Founder,
The System Seminar

P.S. You don’t have to buy a “pig in a poke.”

Like the System Seminar itself, the System Intensive already has a solid track record.

Here’s what people who’ve already taken the program in Chicago, New York and Toronto had to say about it:

“I just wanted to THANK YOU one more time for a truly exceptional seminar. I am not a newbie (I have worked in the Internet for the last 7 years including a major launch with AOL) and I am not easily impressed (I have worked for large companies like PepsiCo and Accenture). I can honestly said that your 1-day System Intensive was exceptional and of enormous value to me and my company.”

-Diego Saenz

“Rearrange your schedule and make it a priority to attend the System Intensive. You’ll get so many ideas that you can’t help to make money.”

-Felicia GoPaul

“I just want to express my appreciation to you for being a stand-up guy and telling it like it is when it comes to Internet marketing. Before I learned about you,

I actually tried to learn Internet marketing from a couple of other gurus (I won’t share their names) and found out that there’s a lot of “smoke and mirrors” in the Internet marketing world.

I actually feel lucky to have learned that lesson early on, because it made me that much more appreciative when I did find someone who was straightforward and truthful.

I watched your “pre-System” videos for 2 years, so when I heard that you were doing the System Intensive in my city, I jumped on without a second thought.

As expected, I walked away from that day with solid, real methods that I could put into action right away. I think what makes your seminars unique is that you combine the new with the old-newer technology with time-tested methods of building a real business, and that’s what really works. Your seminars are very special and can help just about anyone build their business on the Internet.

“System Intensive 2007 is one of those mind-shifting events you hope for, but rarely encounter in marketing circles.

Conducted in a guru-free zone, Ken’s master class in marketing is an interactive research lab that compels you to: focus on your mission, perfect your sales process, test new techniques and deliver value.

Beginning marketers learned how to start and market a web-based business.

Intermediate to experienced marketers offered to share their successes and failures with other students.

Even the most advanced marketers benefited from Ken’s conversations about conversion.

In about 8 hours, you’ll walk out with fresh perspectives, new contacts and an action plan to take your business to the place where you really need to be: one that delivers value for your clients.”

“A very good place to go to set you business mind right!” Tex Johnson UK

“The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. If you’re new to the Internet, and you want to quickly arm yourself with a rock-solid foundation in proven online and offline fundamentals, attend Ken’s System Intensive.

Doing so, can easily save you thousands of dollars because there will be no need, I think, to waste your time and money attending other pitch-a-thon events that take place on an almost monthly basis.

So, if you want to STOP going around in circles, STOP getting distracted by the latest guru of the month club…take what I’m saying here to heart.

As a result, of attending his hype-free event, I’ve co-founded a mastermind group in the Chicago metro area with some of the entrepreneurs I met. Each of us brings a special skill set that’s invaluable to the other members of the group. How much is that worth? Priceless.

And, oh yes, let me not forget. Even if you’re a grizzled old veteran of the Internet, it’s still a good idea to attend the System Intensive because mastery comes from reviewing the fundamentals, again and again.”

“The System Intensive helped me take everything I’ve learned over the years and put it all together into a comprehensive strategy. Again, I was amazed by the quality of the content and the people I met.”

– Kristie McDonald – Nitro-toyz (featured success story in the StomperNet newsletter.)

“If you have any interest in developing an Internet-based business or integrating Internet marketing into your brick and mortar business, this seminar is a MUST. It will save you a lot of time and money and put the focus on the things you need to know to make money that are based in reality.”

– Martha Conway – No nonsense PR expert who has worked with Dan Kennedy

“I wanted to thank you for holding the System Intensive in Toronto. It was a fantastic learning experience and was really great working in a small group atmosphere. I learned a great deal from the presentation as well as from your members.”

There are just three System Intensives left.

* One in LA, THIS Saturday – November 3, 2007
* In San Francisco – November 10, 2007 and
* In Vancouver – November 17. 2007

Then, that’s it for 2007 and I honestly don’t know if I’ll ever have the occasion to offer these again.

So if you’re interested, now’s the time”.
