“The Buyer Code” Review

Simply put, “The Buyer Code” and Mr. Rob Walker, is the absolute BEST affiliate marketing tool……EVER!! Don’t bother to purchase affiliate marketing software and training from other so-called “gurus”. I’ve spent thousands on exactly that, and got somewhere, but nowhere near where I wanted to be….needed to be.

There are four sections:

  • Newbie Video
  • Intermediate Video
  • Google Section
  • Advanced Section

I would further outline the sections; however, I feel that if you want that edge, you need to see the product.

“The Buyer Code” and Mr. Walker do not assume a knowledge base and, for the affiliate marketing newbie, it is heaven-sent. It is targeted for the newbie and everything is there for the newbie; from identifying and explaining what affiliate marketing is; identifying the four core players and their roles: the merchants, the network, the publisher (also known as ‘the affiliate’), and the customer; niche marketing; tags; sitemaps; terms and application; how to build a website; providing the software; identifying resources and products; to advanced marketing tools; and so very much more.

Mr. Walker’s videos are a step-by-step, “over the shoulder” tutorial that is very easy to follow and, foremost, to understand. Whatever your level of expertise, my advice is to view each video, print out the.pdf files, and view it again, then actively “mirror” Mr. Walker’s tutorial to your own marketing goals. Each video is worth its weight in gold. What was once overwhelming is now translated to working websites and product endorsement.

Another reason “The Buyer Code” is the best affiliate marketing tool is their support system. Trust me; another “guru” had non-existent support staff. I tried emailing, follow-up emails, even a hard-copy letter, but I did not even receive acknowledgement of receiving the emails or letter. Talk about absolute frustration. Of course, I requested a refund. I wish I could have requested a refund for “anguish and frustration” at the very least…..very respectfully, of course.

Holiday Gift Ideas for the Biker In Your Family

It’s never too early to start thinking about that special gift for the motorcyclist in the family. It doesn’t matter whether that person is your husband, your wife, your brother-you name it-there’s always some motorcycle related gift they would just love to receive. And it doesn’t matter whether the rider is into cruisers (think Royal Star Venture S), sportbikes (love that Yamaha YZF-R1), or dual-sports (go for a V-Strom), there’s always gear they want but just haven’t had the extra cash to pick up. What better gift could there be?

One warning, however, before we proceed: Bikers tend to be very specific about the type of gear they prefer. Just rushing out and picking up any old pair of motorcycle gloves is not necessarily a good idea. Sure, you might get lucky, and that basic pair of doe-skin gauntlets you come home with might be exactly what your cruiser rider wants. Someone on a different type of bike, however, might be far more interested in some of those high-tech gloves that have padding on every finger and various other strategic locations.

Nope, it’s better to inquire discreetly and feel them out. Let’s stick with gloves. First, take a look at what they have now. Ask them what it is about their current gloves that led them to buy them in the first place. Have them explain the features and why each one is important to them. For instance, some gloves come with a little squeegee stitched to the back of the thumb, for wiping moisture off your helmet visor. Some people love that; others couldn’t care less. Find out what it is that matters to your rider.

GoPro Camera Review – Which One Should You Get?

GoPro is a company owned by Woodman Labs out of Half Moon Bay, California. The company designs compact wearable, waterproof, and shockproof cameras. Their line of high definition cameras are designed for adventure photography and are easily attached to helmet cameras and many other types of surfaces such as surfboards, bikes, and cars to record video in stunning 1080p high definition. If you have sport activity and wish you could record yourself, GoPro wearable cameras are so small that you won’t even notice them on you.

The main advantages of a GoPro camera is that it enables you to record amazing moments in your life that were previously incapable of recording. Traditional camcorders have always been too big to take on many popular activities like snowboarding, hiking, and surfing, but with the GoPro line of cameras you finally can. With the newest of three cameras being the GoPro HD Hero2, which was released in November 2011, you may be wondering which model to get, and if a less expensive one delivers sufficient results.

The GoPro HD Hero2 Professional is the most advanced high-definition camera, it shoots up to 1080p at 30 frames per second and it retails for around $299.99. The main improvements have consisted of better image quality, photo features, video resolution, and a wider field of view. GoPro has created a lens that is 2x sharper than previous models so that the high-definition recordings are even sharper and more vibrant. The camera is also capable of shooting 11, 8, and 5 megapixel photos. In additional, new modes of taking pictures have been added, included up to 10 photos in one second.
