Google Sniper 2.0 and George Brown
This post will be edited over the next few days and become the start of a series of posts, essentially an extended review of George Brown’s Google Sniper 2.0 as I learn to use it and see just how effective it is {or perhaps, isn’t!}.
Nonetheless, I have had a few years of experience with George Montague Brown, and he has always shown integrity in himself and his products. He is relatively young and has very recently been in the IM “trenches” – he worked as a furniture mover before he began to be successful at IM. He understands hardship and hard work.
This looks to be an excellent product – but only time and usage will tell! Since it is a ClickBank product, I have up to 60 days to get a refund if I’m not satisfied.
Shortly, I will tell you about my experience and initial impressions of it

After a very “splashy” opening to the video, it eventually settles down and George talks about concerns that most Internet Marketers have in common. It is worth looking at. If you feel inclined to do so, please leave your comments about the video here – thanks!
WordPress, Themes, WP Plugins and SΩCRATES
When I returned to posting here on April 1st after a long absence, both WordPress and my Socrates theme versions were quite out of date. Surprisingly enough, by first upgrading WordPress and then Socrates, there was only one minor glitch which disappeared almost spontaneously after re-saving some settings.
Later, I looked at the installed plugins – all of them were out of date. So I manually clicked on “update” for each one {a dozen+ of them}, and all seems well.
So I’m happy to be back writing here!
However, I’ll be adding many more plugins here. Why? Over the last year, I have purchased numerous WP plugins, mostly as WSOs. And many of these can and will improve my site, both in functionality and in SEO terms.
As I add plugins, I will post observations {as focused posts} for some of these, telling you what they have accomplished. And in a few cases, with some of the best ones, I will furnish you with some buyer’s links!
And, if you like the Socrates theme you see here, go to the vey bottom of this page and click on the word SΩCRATES in the lower right-hand corner of this page – it will open in a new page!
Synchronicity, Warrior Special Offers and Mark Thompson
For a variety of reasons, many things all came “together” at almost the same time – hence the post title, Synchronicity…
My enthusiasm and excitement with IM {Internet Marketing} returned. I began to look for a way to move forward without worrying too much whether I had made precisely the right choices of direction.
There are many people selling things from the Warrior Forum through the Warrior Plus website. These are typically called WSOs {Warrior Special Offers}. Over that past two years, I have purchased many, many {100s!} WSOs. Of course, they fall into the categories of the good, the bad and the ugly. In most cases, I don’t have time to completely digest them – the bad. But when I’m focusing on a very specific area, such as Adsense, I usually find that I have several WSO products on the topic. Then I can go directly to these and get ideas and understanding, usually things which I can implement quite quickly – the good. BUT, occasionally, the product really is poor – the ugly! {Should have opened it up right away and decided whether to ask for a refund in those cases – ah well, live and learn!}
The WSOs are largely, but certainly not entirely, focused on Internet Marketing. The good news is that when a somewhat experienced Internet Marketer goes into a niche which is not IM, they are usually competing with individuals who don’t have a great deal of experience with marketing products on the Internet. As a result, you can often leverage what you know about IM to be quite successful in non-IM niches! So your experience in IM becomes a definite asset!
One of the individuals/warriors whose WSOs I learned to respect and trust is Mark Thompson. This past Sunday, April 1st, I was reviewing one of the WSOs I had purchased from Mark, and was led to his site. There I found a great set of 5 posts made by him over time, wrapped up as a short set of tips called “Internet Marketing 101″. These 5 posts captured my intent and helped me to focus. One of the benefits of reading these is this major realization: you are not building one or more websites, trying to exploit one or more niches for profits, trying to sell reports or IM “how to” products – You are BUILDING a BUSINESS!!!
This means that you should have a design and plans for this business – where do you want it to go, to grow, and how will you get there? As you begin to change your mindset and think more in this vein, everything you do will start to be examined in this light – is it contributing to my business? That said, most WSOs are very useful to help you build a piece of your business, but only that. But Mark Thompson has several WSOs which precisely deal with how to design and build your business.
Without writing too much more, it is enough to say that a whole bunch of ideas and plans and… => all came together at the same time as I was reading these tips gathered together in “Mark Thompson’s Internet Marketing 101″. They really capture the essence of IM and will inspire you: Mark Thompson’s Internet Marketing 101.
Do yourself a favour and check out his writings on IM. In a few days, I’ll be promoting one or moreof his WSOs in one of my posts here. {I may just return here nd add them to this post!}
