I'm John Counsel, founder and CEO of The Profit Clinic. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and consider this unusual strategic marketing alliance.

Have you noticed a fresh flood of internet marketing newbies in the IM forums recently? I mean, sure... newbies are always there. It goes with the turf. But I've been struck by the increasing number of requests for help and advice to begin building their lists. The numbers are growing, noticeably.

It's almost certainly part of the current surge of serious Net newbies, from both the rising generation of young people, newly-retired executives, mothers wanting to boost the family income while staying at home, 'empty nesters' with time on their hands, frustrated employees looking to find independence and fulfilment... does it really matter why they're here? The fact is, they're arriving daily and many established Internet marketers appear to be overlooking them.

Interestingly, many of these newcomers have no idea who the established experts are or how to find them. And they're increasingly cynical when it comes to "Gurus"* and their over-hyped avalanches of manipulative sales messages and deceptive tactics.

FACT: There's an outstanding opportunity right now for a handful of savvy, ambitious marketers to establish themselves as respected authorities with this growing audience

There's another bonus in this for you, too. You know the stranglehold that the current crop of "Gurus"* has on the Internet marketing scene, and how hard it is to break through that blockade. It can be almost impossible to get the attention (and subscriptions!) of would-be Internet marketers. True?

The noise and clutter created by the "Gurus"* is a major distraction for their confused subscribers. That distraction is no coincidence. It's a deliberate ploy. The longer they can keep them distracted, the longer it will take their victims to wake up to reality and begin looking elsewhere.

So what's the solution to this dilemma? Is there one?

You bet there is! As management doyen, the late Peter Drucker, proclaimed, "business is about two things only: innovation and marketing".

Innovation and marketing, done with integrity and intelligence, will always win against deception and abuse by predators — eventually.

It can take a little time, or a revolutionary breakthrough, to get peoples' attention. But the simplest, fastest and most effective way to do this is usually by a simple flanking manouevre. Slip around the deceivers and abusers (and their captives) to reach a new audience — then seize attention when the sheer size — and respect — of your newfound followers are too obvious to be ignored.

In other words, use lateral thinking.

Then watch as those victims flock to your list. Especially if you treat them with integrity and intelligence, instead of the usual deception and emotional manipulation. (And watch out for those "Gurus", too. They'll want to become your next best friends, whose sole purpose is to remove you as a threat by making you one of them. But remember... cunning is the counterfeit of intelligence, and compromise is the absence of integrity. Tread warily when "Gurus" come calling with smiles and open arms.)

Nothing succeeds like success. But it sometimes takes a little ingenuity to achieve it. That's what we're really talking about here.

"So, John... what is this innovative strategic marketing alliance you're offering?"

And why don't I just call it a "joint venture" like everyone else in Internet marketing?

Look, call me pedantic or anything else you like, but the root cause of most human conflict can be traced back to vague or confusing definitions. I prefer to be precise. It prevents a lot of aggravation.

The fact is, the term "joint venture" is a classic example of opportunistic sellers hijacking precise marketing and business terminology and twisting its meaning to suit themselves. A true joint venture is very different to what Internet marketers mean by the term. What they really mean is actually a strategic marketing alliance.

A joint venture is an independent business enterprise, properly constituted and maintained, owned jointly by two or more joint venture partners.

It's not just a deal between one marketer and a bunch of super-affilliates with huge mailing lists. That's a strategic alliance between sellers. Perfectly legitimate, by the way, but misleading and confusing if it's called a joint venture. You can learn more about this vexed topic by downloading the white paper "Is it Marketing? Or is it Selling? (And do YOU know the difference?)".

Okay... back to the opportunity! If you haven't yet done so, please view the main page here. (It will open in a new window so you don't leave this page.)

Let me spell out the benefits as I see them. If you like what you see, fill out the form below and send it. Then, if I like what I see, I'll send you a non-disclosure agreement to be completed and returned (instructions included for fast, web-based reply). Once that's done, I'll send you the proposal document, with a deadline.

IMPORTANT: This offer is limited to only twenty (20) people. More than that and it becomes unworkable, in ways that will become clear when you see the details of the proposal.

Why not just spell out the proposal up front?

Because the element of surprise is key to the success of this strategic alliance. It's hard to surprise anyone if they have all the details in advance! (Hence the password protection and sign-offs for all stages and documents.)

The other key to our success is timing. We need to hit the ground running, so if you're selected and accept, this will need your highest priority. Not for long, fortunately, but there will be tight deadlines involved that MUST be met or you'll lose your spot. (Yes, reserve places are part of the deal. Miss a deadline and you miss out on everything. Period. This project will not be held to ransom by anyone, for any reason. If you can't commit, please don't apply.)
