Butterfly Marketing July 24, 2009
Posted by Pat in : nothing in particular , comments closedA few few years ago when Butterfly Marketing first came out, I wanted the script. That’s because I’m a real sucker for scripts because I love to play with them, but Butterfly Marketing was out of my reach at the time. I think there was an early offer that I missed and then it went to something like $1,997 - a lot of money to find if you haven’t got it. Actually it’s a lot of money even if you have it!
So I was intrigued to get a promo email about something Mike Filsaime is doing with Butterfly Marketing 2.0 fairly soon. I’ve discovered that he’s actually giving away 5,000 copies of his home study course, the updated manuscript and the software scripts - but only if you’re quick enough. I’ve registered on the notification list and I’ll be there when it’s launched to see if I can catch one of the free copies. I know the power of the script and as an internet marketing tool it’s very powerful.
Of course, as with anything in life, there are subtle implications. For example, it’s not a completely unconditional offer. You have to pay about $30 for shipping - which seems perfectly reasonable as this is a physical product that gets shipped to your door - and there is a continuity element for his marketing newsletter, but it’s clear on his website and the video that there is a continuity aspect.
It’s also likely to be over-subscribed so a lot of people who go to get it may find that others have beaten them to one of the coveted 5,000 slots. But for the quick movers amongst it will save you a chunk of change ($1,997) and then some. And it will give you a platform for managing your entire internet marketing empire.
Butterfly Marketing has a pre-launch notification list to give early signups a one hour head start on the public. You just have to enter your name and email address. And after you’ve confirmed your email address be sure to watch the video with Jordan Hall. It’s an inspiring story of a young guy who’s taken action and really done well.There are several lessons in the video so it’s worth watching a few times and paying close attention.
The perfect time to celebrate Shakespeare love poems and other sonnets July 24, 2009
Posted by Pat in : nothing in particular , comments closedFor those who care for the poems of past, this year and the month of May can be considered as one of the best ways to relish these poems. And to be more exact, this is the time to show appreciation once again to the great sonnet works of Shakespeare, Shakespeare being one of the big names when it comes to cute love poems and sonnets about love. But why is May a perfect time to celebrate love and cherish the poems of Shakespeare?
The year as the 400th year of Shakespeare’s sonnets and poems.
Well the third week of the month of May marks the 400th anniversary of the publication of Shakespeare’s sonnets. According to records, the first edition of the sonnets which include some great poems was released on May 20, 1609 and this was made possible by Thomas Thorpe. Other sources will zero-in on a different date, but still they are one in saying that the first edition of the master’s sonnets was published in 1609, thus the year 2009 marks the 400th year of the sonnet’s existence. After 400 years of being published, Shakespeare words as used on his poems remain true, popular and continues to promote love. And the question is, will there be modern words as well that can lasts for the next 400 years and match the longevity of the words and the poems of this great master?
What are sonnets and love poems?
As a lead off to the celebration, some Shakespearean scholars have noted that Thorpe may have released the poems and the sonnets of Shakespeare without the consent of the author. But whether or not there was consent, the important thing is that the precious gems of Shakespeare in the form of sonnets and poems has been made available and has inspired many generations of lovers. The sonnets of the poet are actually forms of poems, and these sonnets are considered as the most common forms of poetry. Sonnets that talk of love, called love poems in general are poems composed of thirteen lines and these poems contain a set rhyme and arranged in a logical structure. But perhaps the best description for these sonnets is that these sonnets are associated with love poetry and as such they are known as love poems. Poems in the form of sonnets are known to use the poetic diction that is based more on vivid imagery.
Reasons why sonnets and love poems of Shakespeare and other masters stand the test of time.
And the best known poems and sonnets are the ones written by Shakespeare. The sonnets and poems of Shakespeare introduced many generations of lovers to timeless poems’ lines. Lovers and couples who know their love poems know these lines’ “shall I compare thee to a summer’s day” or perhaps the more vivid “remembrance of things past”. Poems of this celebrated poet contain lines that express many thoughts about love and even betrayal. Sonnets and poems that talk about love are considered as the most personal poems around, may be because these poems addresses one of the most important emotions known to man- to love. These kinds of poems are here to stay, as long as man continues to love. Just look at the works of Shakespeare- it continues to make the romantics’ heart beat faster even after 400 years.
