Now I’m also going to show you that it is very possible and I must add – humanly possible—for anyone or any ordinary individual to pull off a massive product launch on a huge scale and achieve extraordinary income within a short period of time.
I want to make a disclaimer before I continue. This does not imply that this is a get-rich quick scheme because you have to put in a lot of effort and that is undeniable. You have to put a lot of effort into launching a product successfully and all the steps must be done in a correct co-ordination otherwise even if you do implement a lot of effort into launching your product, it could actually fail if you don’t follow the steps correctly or reach out to your market in a way that has mass appeal.
If you study the launches of successful million dollar makers on the Internet, you will find out that they will all have 4 criteria’s where they launch a new product which is firstly revolutionary. Secondly it has mass appeal. Thirdly it is something that helps people solve their problems or help make people’s lives a little bit easier. And with some touching up on the advertising side, they make people very excited, and as a result they have created a million dollar success.
This is something that differentiates the top Internet marketers and those who are just getting by every day. You may want to ask yourself seriously; which side do you want to be on?

The Land Between - Finding God...

Jeff Manion

In this Ebook edition of The Land Between, author Jeff Manion uses the biblical story of the Israelites’ journey through Sinai desert as a metaphor for being in undesired, transitional space. After enduring generations of slavery in Egypt, the descendants of Jacob travel through the desert (the land between) toward their new home in Canaan. They crave the food of their former home in Egypt and despise their present environment. They are unable to go back and incapable of moving forward. The Land Between explores the way in which the Israelites’ reactions can provide insight and guidance on how to respond to God during our own seasons of difficult transition. It also provides fresh biblical insight for people traveling through undesired transitions—foreclosure, unemployment, parents in declining health, post-graduate uncertainty, business failure—who are looking for hope, guidance, and encouragement. While it is possible to move through transitions and learn little, they provide our greatest opportunity for spiritual growth. God desires to meet us in our chaos and emotional upheaval, and he intends for us to encounter his goodness and provision during these upsetting seasons.
