Got an email today from Keith Wellman that read:

“Ben,

Yesterday Mr. Jeff Wellman launched
Lay Off Your Boss 2…

He did not do as well as expected,
however, this kind of thing happens
all the time in this market that
we are in…

so he has changed up the gameplan a bit…

He is taking off the $77 price and
willing to let you try it out for
one month to see what it is all
about…

[Link was here]

Keith Wellman”

Imagine, an internet marketer actually admitting that his father’s product launch didn’t do very well! Some refreshingly rare honesty from Wellman Junior.

It’s such a shame he let me down…

I always thought the day would come where “Mark Warren” would mess up and show the world how he has been deceiving people with his various sites and identities.

In fact, I’ve already written about how I was sure that “Warren” was using different names to promote his Ultimate Wealth Package opportunity.

See the following pages to find out more about my suspicions:

Mark Warren, the man behind Dannys-Scam-Review.com

Mark Warren and the Ultimate Wealth Package – Review

As it turns out, it seems Mark Warren had to close down his Ultimate Wealth Package after it was removed from Clickbank. I’ve no idea why it was removed so I won’t make any accusations.

Shortly after this package was removed from Clickbank, Warren’s other site “Danny’s Scam Review” disappeared. No surprise really as this so-called “review” site was just a dodgy site written by Warren under the pseudonym “Danny Caldwell” in order to promote the Ultimate Wealth Package.

Yep, Mark Warren was shilling his own products by pretending to be an impartial advisor.

It’s pretty common on the ‘net where morals are in short supply.

Over summer 2007, “Mark Warren” seemingly decided to move his domains from GoDaddy into his own registrar (called ‘Your Affiliate Site LLC’).

Of course, as anybody knows, if you want to move a domain from one registrar to another, you have to remove the “Whois” protection. So, for a short time, the real registrant of Mark Warren’s domains was visible whilst the transfer took place.

Yep, rather than hiding behind a “Domains by Proxy” name, Warren had to expose himself as follows:

The UltimateWealthPackage.com:

Registrant:
Mark Jenney
60 E Rio Salado Pkwy
Suite 900
Tempe, Arizona 85281
United States

Dannys-scam-review.com:

Registrant:
Mark Jenney
526 Wooster Rd N
Barberton, Ohio 44203
United States

InstantMoneyVault.com:

Registrant:
Mark Jenney
526 Wooster Rd N
Barberton, Ohio 44203
United States

So, as we already thought, Mark Warren is actually Mark Jenney of Barberton, Ohio, USA.

It seems that Jenney was happy to tell all and sundry about being a shill when he attended offline internet marketing seminars.

One person I know who likes to stay part of the “guru” set let slip that Warren was well known for being behind both the Ultimate Wealth Package and Danny’s Scam Review.

The only reason this secret informer told me is that he was very drunk and name-dropping at the seminar I attended in October.

Mark Warren or Mark Jenney or Danny Caldwell or Michelle Andrews isn’t currently promoting anything but I would hazard a guess he’ll be back soon with a new get-rich-quick scheme.

I’m just surprised he was silly enough to let his carefully kept secret out…

I don’t know whether it’s a lack of enthusiasm or just general disappointment with the whole industry but I’ve fallen out of love with information products at the moment.

Each week a new “expert” announces themselves to the world in order to sell a $27, $37 or $77 eBook. The latest new internet marketing “expert” is as disappointing as previous ones, and is doing the usual trick – hiding his real name.

I’m always wary of people who avoid using their real names in the “make money online” industry. It could be completely innocent but it just throws suspicion onto them straight away. Why do they feel the need to hide who they are?

I guess we’ll never know. The problem I see with using a fake name is that you can never really “come out” and be known as your real name – you’ll have to continue to use your fake name throughout your career selling “make money” products. This causes other problems when people find out you’ve been using a fake name and the longer the lie goes on, the harder it will be to get out of it.

Or maybe I’m just thinking too much about it all!

It seems that my general “malaise” with info products has been building up slowly.

As I look back through my records from the last 6 months or so I can only see a couple of information products that I have bought (or been given).

There was the 7 Figure Code, the 12 Month Millionaire (that I never actually got around to reading) and the ‘Site Stealer’ course.

(There is another one which was good but I am not going to mention that one at the moment)

So, compared to the 6 months previous to that, I have barely been spending any money at all. Except, of course, for all the domain names I have been buying.

Hundreds of them.

And I’ve managed to snag some pretty nice names – a couple of which previously belonged to marketers who are commonly known in the internet marketing community as ‘gurus‘.

I decided a clear-out was needed so I have listed some of the domains for sale on this page:

Premium Quality Domain Names For Sale

If you are interested in any of these great names, please email me and we can have a chat and maybe work out a deal.

And make sure to keep an eye on that page because I’ll be adding more great domains as time goes on!

If there’s one thing that stops a lot of marketers from selling a lot of product – it’s the fact they don’t have a good sales letter.

Even if they have a superb product – a huge seminar package on DVD for example – it’s very hard to make any sales without a good sales letter.

So, up step Dan Lok and Ewen Chia.

They have put together a superb resource containing loads of extremely successful sales letters.

A private collection of winning ads and salesletters

So, instead of sitting there struggling for words to use, you adapt proven copy from these successful adverts.

It’s the missing link for people who are struggling with their sales copy!

Until Sunday it’s available for a knock-down price in the Weekend Super Deal:

https://www.WeekendSuperDeal.com

BUT, don’t purchase without using the following code:

A4SPS9

That particular code will give you an even bigger discount so make sure you use it!

Have a great weekend,

Ben

Back in July 2007 I bought Mike Filsaime’s 7 Figure Code course.

Mike held a JV competition and offered a whole host of expensive prizes for those marketers who made the most affiliate sales.

1st place got a Rolex watch and a cruise, 2nd place got a 50″ flat screen TV plus a cruise, 3rd got a MacBook and a cruise… all the way down to 16th place – who got a set of steak knives.

Of course, each marketer also got some commission for each sale they made which at a standard 50% was probably about $250 per sale.

Once the competition ended we discovered that the top performing affiliate had sold a massive 302 units through his affiliate link and so very likely gaining around $75,000 in commissions as well as the prizes.

Now, obviously it was very lucrative to get a lot of sales for this particular launch so all the “top gun” marketers offered some amazing bonus packages to anybody who bought through their affiliate link.

For the customers this was great. Not only did you get the 7 Figure Code for your $497 but you also got a load of extras simply for buying through one particular link!

Or at least that’s how it should work…

As it turns out, some marketers did not fulfill their promises and never sent out all of the bonuses they had lined up.

And I happened to fall victim to one particular marketer who failed to deliver the full package of bonuses he promised me back in July 2007.
