		<description>Matt,

I'm not so much a gamer (I'm very fussy with what I like, having bought just 2-3 games in the past 10 years or so), but I do have an interest in games design and spent a few years (2004 until just recently) developing mods (for the Total War series).

Of course, games sites are highly competitive so I'd imagine you'd really have to do it from some unique angle...

I got my first computer in 1983 so I may be familiar with some of the same games as your mother ;)

Best of luck with it!</description>

		<description>Ok, ok I get it. I do recall some excellent videos Andy Beard put out some time ago about "natural" search engine optimization and long tail keyword phrases. He showed his site - one of them doing over a million a year in revenue!
The site was myweddingfavors.com! I learned a whole lot about layout and designing.

Andy has a blog, (not the neatest, but it's got good info) over at http://andybeard.eu/ he's worth a look as he's got a TON of stuff on there! Really! He's quieter than a lot of the other gurus out there, but he's still bringing in the cash with his businesses.

I got a game site that I'm helping to get set up (ok, my mom's the web designer, she's doing most of the work. :) )
But we are working on setting up a wordpress blog to link the site up to to garner more traffic. We both are really glad that there were so many free gaming sites to list on the downloads page. 
(I don't have to quit gaming just cause my bank acct. is on life support and my wallet's so thin a sheet of paper looks thick! Yippee! Time for stress relief! Time to trash some baddies messing up my financial future - all those trolls and ogres in D.C. lol!)

I'm offering some great information, my mom's an old time gamer from the mid-1970's and is an awesome gamemaster! She games my siblings and friends on the weekends. It's a great chance for having family fun that doesn't cost a cent! My kid sister's even getting in on the act of starting up an online business!

I think the site is coming along, but maybe adding a video to get a list started wouldn't be a bad idea. Hmm? What could we offer to get folks to sign up though? Any ideas? Don't know if you know any gamers, lol we're a weird breed, sorta like Jason &#38; Frank, the millionaire surfer dudes. LOL!

Peace. Out.</description>

		<description>Hi Matt,

No, you don't have to use yourself in the video... in fact how Michael teaches them is without placing yourself in the video, except maybe a photo of yourself, but no video!  I'm sure your "mug" is just fine though :)

I know you would love to know my sites and I fully understand that... I've always wanted to know myself when marketers would come out with something new.  But having come so far I now also appreciate why the marketers never reveal the exact sites.  I have chosen not to release the exact sites for these reasons: competition and partnership…  If you have a successful website do you want everyone copying yours exactly and having to compete directly with them or do you want people competing in a manner that won't affect your direct income? Rather, I would love to see everyone succeed with me and in order to do that we all have to have our own styles. 

In other words, when you have a site up and successful would you want me to directly compete with you or would you prefer to be in the same market and enabling yourself to be business partners supporting each other? If you see what I’ve done your mind will automatically try to do what it’s been exposed to rather than coming up with your own unique patterns and ideas (this doesn’t mean we wouldn’t follow the same guidelines simply that we wouldn’t copy the exact business model).   Ultimately knowing my exact sites and copying them not only hurts me but also hurts your potential for success.

I hope this makes sense. I know it is a long story short version, but please don’t hesitate to respond if this doesn’t quite make sense to you. I thought about this long before the Golden Thread program became a part of my life. It really is the way to go for you and for me, at least until you’ve had a chance to build your own sites. 

On a side note, if I show you my sites I would actually be giving you the ability to try and learn the Golden Thread program without purchasing it… therefore devaluing the product for both Michael and the people who have purchased it.  This would happen because you wouldn’t have the coaching to properly implement a profitable cash cannon only the knowledge to make a different type of video.
 
Best Wishes,
Shannon</description>

		<description>I was wondering, is there any way you would let us see what your sites look like so that we can get a first hand look at how your cash cannons work on your sites?

I'm still not sure how these cc's work. Can you make one without being in it? I doubt anyone would want to see my mug in a video - I'm not going to break the camera, but I don't even like having pictures taken, why would I want to be in a video?

Anyone else want to see Shannon's sites?</description>

		<description>Thanks Ed,

I have used various forms but mostly articles, link exchanges, blog posts and social bookmarking.  I have more recently started with PPC, but it is not my main source and still not something I'm ready to teach others about.  

Hope that helps Ed!

		<description>Hi Shannon
Great job and love your honesty.
May I ask what methods of traffic you use to get visitors to each one of your "Cash Cannons" or sites?
Is it PPC, Article Marketing, Forum Postings? 

This is the one question that I don't think was answered or if it was I must have missed it. 

Thanks in advance and congrats on your success

		<description>Hi Kim,

I know how frustrating the buildup for a product launch can be... I have been around this market for a few years and have been witness to just a couple of launches... wink, wink!

Last time I spoke with Michael, he was still working out all the details and I'm not 100% positive what he is going to be offering the program for... I can speculate, but that isn't what you want.  

The good news is that there is less than 3 days to wait now :)  I'm sorry I can't answer your question better.

Best Wishes,

		<description>Hi Michael,

Great job at your shot with using video on your site... video is definitely the way we are headed and I'm happy to see you are trying your hand at it!

Your video is not what I would call a "cash cannon" but it is a great start!  Good luck with your launch and yes I may just need to create a cash cannon for a product in the forex market, not something I have ventured into yet but it has always intrigued me! 

Good Luck Michael!

Best Wishes,
Shannon</description>

		<description>Hi, I am very happy with your success, I have a question for you, what is this going to cost? It seems everyone wants to launch a product, but they do not want to tell you the price before hand, just a big build up, and bam!! I would like to read the sales copy, and know the price before hand, just my 2 cents worth!</description>

		<description>Hi Barry,

Thanks again!

Michael knows and understands IM... that is how he has made his millions.  I was always afraid of the IM market in the past... afraid of the gurus and trying to compete I guess.  Anyway, I've always been in other markets because of this, so since this is what I know I have stuck with this.  

I have ventured more into IM recently and love this aspect of it (replying to comments on my blog).  I know a lot about marketing on the Internet through my years of being online and am now having fun teaching others what I know!

Yes Barry, I will be sending out my affiliate link on Monday and the way Michael set it up is that the affiliate link you click on when you choose to purchase the program is the affiliate that will get the credit and therefore those are the affiliate bonuses you will receive.  

Best Wishes,
Shannon</description>

		<description>Hey Shannon,

Again...fantastic results! It almost seems unbelievable that this system works so well but I am definitely giving it a shot.

Just out of curiosity, Michael seems to think the IM market is one of the best but you are venturing out into other types of marketing....any particular reasons why?

I am going to be jumping in on the early bird notice come Monday so do you know if I can go through your affiliate link to do that?

Thanks!
