7DollarAdBoxes: A Novel Income Stream By Ted Kopelli
Friday, December 28, 2007

7dollaradbox is a fine new service from Ted Kopelli that gives Internet Marketers an additional income stream for Blogs and websites.

The vertical ad display you see at the right margin was created by $7 Ad Box. They look a little like Adsense ads -- but they're not. Instead, they're links to inexpensive products for a wide range of interests.

I call 7dollaradboxes the adbox for short. It's a new revenue stream that adds value for customers and the Master Of Eye Candy Blog itself.

Installation of 7 dollar ad boxes was a breeze; it took me about 15 minutes. The script resides on my server. It was a simple matter of uploading it, setting a few CHMOD permissions and configuring the settings.

Basically it was as easy as pie. I have a decent amount of experience as a webmaster, so I encountered no problems. A webmaster with less experience likely won't be able to do the installation quite as fast, but it's still very easy.

A step-by-step readme file is included.

My feeling is that $7 AdBoxes will become popular on Internet Marketing Blogs.

Bloggers earn a couple of different ways. First, if somebody makes a purchase after clicking on an ad, the Blogger gets paid instantly for the purchase via PayPal.

And 7dollaradbox also has its own Affiliate program, giving marketers a chance to earn commissions paid monthly through the sale of the script itself.

So, two ways to earn:
This is a very attractive script from Ted Kopelli and $7 Ad Box.

Patrick Pretty: I Can't Believe I Ate The Whole Thing
Wednesday, December 26, 2007

Hi Friends,

If you're a middle-aged person living in the United States, you no doubt recollect the old Alka-Seltzer commercial.

This line from it became part of the popular culture:

"I can't believe I ate the whole thing." : -)

I mentioned yesterday that I was going to my sister's house for Christmas dinner. For the record, I ended up eating the whole thing -- twice, in fact.

And that's why I'm happy to have a close personal relationship with Prilosec. Alka-Seltzer would have worked, too, but I didn't have any with me.

If you've been with me for a while, you likely already know that I'm perhaps the only top Poster Model in the entire world who regularly eats at buffets. My Mom served up dinner smorgasbord-style when I was a kid, and it turned into a lifelong preference.

Normally I don't overeat. After all, I am a Regulation Big Deal and necessarily must concern myself with my appearance. I could lose out on a lot of commercials and such if I got fat.

But yesterday I did overeat. Worry not: The Prilosec got me through it. If you're keeping tabs, you might want to mark down that I also overate at Thanksgiving. I plan not to overeat when my full family assembles Saturday for a Holiday celebration.

But in case I do, well . . . Prilosec.

You can learn more about me by reading "My Secret Identity." It shows you "the Patrick Pretty Way" of branding in Internet Marketing -- and puts a couple of the colors of my life on full display. I think you'll like these colors.

My Secret Identity

See you at a Buffet near you soon.

A Christmas Greeting From Patrick Pretty
Tuesday, December 25, 2007

Dear Readers,

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Please have a safe, happy and healthy Holiday Season. May you experience great joy and bask in the warmth of your family.

Today I am having dinner at my sister's home. On Dec. 29, our family will hold its traditional Holiday celebration. It can't always occur on the 25th, owing to work and travel schedules.

But each of us looks forward to this special day of togetherness. We try always to have a similar celebration in July.

Joy to the world!

Patrick Pretty Statement On Baseball Steroid Probe
Thursday, December 13, 2007

Poster Model, Hollywood A-Lister and Lifelong Baseball Fan Patrick Pretty today issued the following statement concerning the findings of Sen. George Mitchell's investigation into steroid use in Major League Baseball.

"Sen. Mitchell's findings are heartbreaking to baseball fans worldwide who cherish the game. My core belief is that baseball owners and general managers are complicit in the players' alleged steroid use, turning a blind eye to it and tarnishing the reputation of baseball.

"Roger Clemens, whose name was mentioned 82 times in the Mitchell Report to Commissioner Bud Selig, has denied the allegations through his attorney. I'd like to hear Roger's personal denial.

"I was particulary saddened to see Mark McGwire's name mentioned because of the great joy I felt during the 1998 season when McGwire and Sammy Sosa were chasing the homerun record of 61 held by Roger Maris. McGwire ended up launching 70 homers that season, shattering the record. Barry Bonds beat McGwire's record only three seasons later, pounding 73 homers.

"I'm heartened to learn, however, that's Sosa's name wasn't mentioned in the Mitchell report. That makes me feel a little bit better about the 1998 season. It also makes me feel better about the shot Sosa hit at Wrigley Field against the Cardinals on July 4, 2003. I was in Wrigley that day, and so I feel better about seeing that homerun now."

'My Secret Identity': What Case Stevens Says
Wednesday, December 12, 2007

"My Secret Identity" was released yesterday. It has been on the receiving end of some warm words by veteran Internet Marketers. Here's what Case Stevens had to say:

"Awesome!

"I already knew about the importance of branding and positioning. But again you amazed me by teaching me so many new things here that I can apply immediately.

"I'm convinced that this ebook can speed up the learning process for many new and even more seasoned marketers and that it also can save them lots of money.

"Apart from these lessons learned, let me emphasize that reading your ebook is like you're talking to me in person. The stories you use to visualize solutions are touching. Your style is stirring.

"It makes me feel like we've been friends for ages, although we only met online back in September.

"To me, that and your honesty, lacking any hype, are the most important lessons. It's exactly why working with you is such a pleasure. You're a real friend!

"And dang, you really know how to set yourself apart!"

-- Case Stevens

Well, thank you, Case! Case is the power behind the "Affordable Internet Marketing" Blog -- a hardworking and earnest gentleman who speaks more than one language.

A few weeks ago he welcomed a new member of the Internet Marketing Inner Circle in Turkish.

I don't know precisely how many languages Case speaks; I do know that he's a person whose judgment, knowledge and work ethic I've come to admire.

Patrick Pretty's 'Secret Identity' Launches Dec. 11
Sunday, December 9, 2007

The site is ready to go, and the reviews are in. "My Secret Identity" will launch Tuesday at 9 a.m. E.T. (U.S.A.).

"My Secret Identity: How Daring To Be Different Can Put You On The Internet Marketing Map And Position You For Online Success" is the follow-up to "Pluck Forever." It is 6,477 words.

Here's what Dr. Mani said:

Patrick, fascinating report!

I enjoyed how you translate simple experiences as a childhood entrepreneur to your adult avocation of Internet Marketing -- and do it in a way that shares powerful marketing lessons by telling a story.

You have set yourself apart in a crowded niche by 'being different' -- and after reading your report, many others will know exactly how to do it -- and why they should dare!

One of my predictions for 2008 is that we'll see regular people becoming global micro-brands. Your guide reveals the safest way to do it . . . with PLUCK!"

"My Secret Identity" is about the lack of color in Internet Marketing. Yes, it reveals my secret identity. But it also educates and informs readers about issues that confront them as they build their online businesses.

One of the biggest of these is how to escape Google's Slush Pile. Many marketers find it hard to claw their way out of the avalanche; they instinctively do the wrong things. This only adds to the slush pile, making it even deeper.

"My Secret Identity" shows you how I got out -- and why some of the top marketers in the world now promote my products.

Life as a Poster Model and Regulation Big Deal has its advantages. "My Secret Identity" shows you how to take advantage of your own creativity to build a memorable brand.

My sincere thanks to the reviewers for their input. "My Secret Identity" is a better product now because of your thoughtful reflections.

I'll announce the official launch of the site Tuesday morning.

Thanks for visiting today, Friend.

Upcoming Products From Patrick Pretty
Wednesday, December 5, 2007

Hello Friends,

Over the next few weeks I'll be launching two new products. One will be ready to go soon. The other will launch once beta-testing is complete.

Expect to hear about this product soon:

"My Secret Identity: How Daring To Be Different Can Put You On The Internet Marketing Map And Position You For Online Success."

It's not quite time to release the name of the second product. Testing, however, is under way. My partners and I will make an announcement as soon as possible.

"My Secret Identity" tells some core truths about the Patrick Pretty brand and Internet Marketing in general. One reviewer has told me she read it cover to cover in a single session -- not even letting a ringing telephone cause her to put it down.

No, I didn't pay her for her comment. :-)

Friends, I love what I do. It's my sincere hope that you love what you do, too.

I'll give you a little clue about "My Secret Identity": It's something I'm proud of. The eBook talks about some of the colors of the IM life. Colors are important. They help tell the story of your life.

As always, I thank you for stopping by.

Sincerely,

Patrick Pretty
