You're An Expert - Share YOUR Wisdom!

Hey Aspiring Gurus!!! If you are trying to make your big-break in the world sharing wisdom with others on your own website then be sure to read this page. I will be more than happy to feature you as an expert and let people know about you! The marketing value to you is tremendous, and believe it or not I'm not even going to charge you a cent for this incredible opportunity!

It's been said that everyone gets 15 minutes of fame. Well here is your chance to be in the lime-light! Ok, sure you won't be as famous as Jennifer Anniston, Anthony Robbins, or Barney the dinosaur by being featured here, but a heck of a lot of people will get the pleasure of seeing something from you. Who knows, you might even get a bunch of adoring fan groupies!

Whether you are a self-proclaimed guru on some subject about making money, complete with a website & a fan club on facebook, or even if you are a complete "nobody" you should really take the time to read through this page. The value of what I'm offering you here, for FREE, is immense, regardless of what your ambition is... to make money, to gather web traffic, or just for a cool learning experience.

What's on this page:

• What is all this anyhow?
• What is in it for you?
• What do you do?
• What if you don't know anything worth sharing?
• How do you send it to me?

What is all this anyhow?

Part of the mission of the Penny Millions project, and the publicity stunt, is to demonstrate these concepts by doing them myself so that you can see how it is done, and so that you know that I'm not a hypocrite (I practice what I preach). You can see everything I do in the "See Me Go" section.

I'm building a specialized "Daily Nuggets" website, utilizing many of the concepts I'm happy to teach you, along with a few more advanced variations, that has a specialized purpose to be of exceptional value to you as part of this website. The website is located at www.InspireMoney.com, and it has a three-fold value for YOU... (1) There you will find plenty of valuable content to learn various ideas on how to make money; it's actually worth your time enjoying the resources provided for you. (2) You can promote yourself & generate traffic to your website, which is valuable to you. (3) You can have personal satisfaction of having a ton of people love you for the inspiring ideas you share.

YOU will be creating short mini-videos (3 to 9 minutes long) explaining an interesting money-making concept. The video discusses one, just one, intriguing concept, and it MUST provide actual value to the viewer - they must feel that they learned something worthwhile, and that it was worth the few minutes of their life to watch it. Don't worry about producing a professional-looking video, these are meant to be amateur videos, but just do the best you can. At the end of the video you are welcome to share your name and invite people to visit your website (or facebook profile/group if you don't have a website), and depending upon how good your video was (or if they just like you) the viewers might just go there. Be sure to read the next section "What's in it for you?" to better understand why this is extremely valuable for you.

What is in it for you?

Initially I speak here to people who are already producing blogs, websites, or in some way market themselves. Five paragraphs down I discuss what is in it for you for those of you who are not currently doing anything on the web. Either way it is still worth reading this whole section regardless of what type of person you are.

First of all, if you are already trying to market yourself on the Internet (you have a website, a facebook group, a blog, or something else) then you should immediately recognize the incredible opportunity I am extending to you... for free!!! Remember that it is my mission to reach over a million subscribers here on Penny Millions (that is a ton of people) and I am happy to let them know about you, and I'm even willing to provide a direct clickable link to your web address!

Those of you who are experienced marketers are probably thinking that I'm crazy; it breaks all the rules! I don't believe in scarcity marketing, hoarding all the people to myself. It is an abundant world, and I consider success and money to be like love. If you try to restrict love to keep it all for yourself you don't have any, but only by giving love, extending it, and sharing it does it grow to an immense magnitude. Whether you recognize it or not the world operates upon the law of reciprocity - givers get. I am delighted to point people to things of exceptional value, and I just trust that directly or indirectly it will somehow come back around to me.

If you produce a video of real value (you are giving of yourself) I am happy to promote it to add value to the lives of everyone I know (I'm giving to you and to them). If the people feel that they have benefited by your video then they'll probably want to know more and end up on your website, blog, group, or whatever is appropriate. If you continue to *GIVE* value to them then they'll be inclined to reciprocate by giving back to you; what they give back to you may take many forms, but it will probably include plenty of money for you. Remember this secret of success... your wealth is in direct proportion to the value you create and share. The more of it you make, and the more people it helps the wealthier you'll be.

The bottom line, if you are trying to market yourself, is that what I am offering you (giving you) for free is of tremendous marketing value to you. YOU SHOULD DO THIS!!! The dividends of participating in this project, taking a couple of hours to produce these videos, can yield returns for you for years to come!

If you are not currently promoting yourself, read this.

What is in it for you to produce these mini videos if you are not a marketer or trying to somehow promote yourself on the web? Actually there are plenty of reasons why you should do this!

First of all you will learn something through the process. The skills you gain from this experience can later be utilized for something else that you do, or for a future Penny Millions project you embark upon.

At the very least you'll get the appreciation of people who were inspired by you. Your ego may get fluffed, you may feel the love from others, you'll be happy & proud of your accomplishment, and you'll accumulate some good karma that can somehow pay you back in the future in ways that right now you couldn't even imagine.

For now you should at least create a facebook profile (it is free to join facebook), and I would be happy to provide you with a link to that under your video. This way your adoring fans can send you their love letters & fan mail, and when you are ready you can later message them about any website, blog, group or whatever you create that will add further value to their lives. If you have any ambition to market yourself in the future then at least you can start now.

Most people need a carrot, some kind of incentive to do something. I hope that what I wrote above enlightens you to the reasons why it would be beneficial for you to share your golden nuggets of wisdom with all of us, but I would now like to share one more "reason", which might not be that strong of a motivator for many of you, but I consider it to be significant.

We are all One, brothers & sisters, and we are all in this together. We perceive each others' interests as separate, but if you think about it aren't we all striving for the same things? Alone we are powerless, but together when we each support one another we are strong. There is tremendous power in SHARING which transcends the obvious superficial level of perception. When you gift a child a toy doesn't that action alone in some way fulfill you? Later, often when and in ways you least expect it, that love gets reciprocated back to you. The same thing applies here, in sharing your nuggets of wisdom with others. Giving is a demonstration of inner strength that yields positive results for you in many ways. Think of the saying "as you sow, so shall you reap", and the Golden Rule, "do unto others as you would have them do unto you". The secret or the key is not to do altruistic stuff with the selfish expectation of reaping the return, you do it primarily with a sense of joy, and you can know that it will come back to you but without expectations of how.

Ok, so now I sound a bit esoteric, but what I just barely touched upon above I do strongly believe. Just observe my actions (i.e. what I am doing on this website) and you can plainly see that I really do believe this to be true, and am practicing what I'm preaching here. Be sure to also read the "Share This" page.

One last thought before we drop this "warm & fuzzy" topic. We are creating a community of people sharing with each other. If I give you a dollar and you give me a dollar then we are each no further ahead. But if I give you an idea, and you give me an idea then we are now each twice as rich! I encourage you to share your golden nuggets (ideas) and enjoy the wisdom of others, and it is my sincere wish for this to grow to be an amazing resource for all of us, brothers & sisters, who are all striving towards our own personal goals of financial freedom.

What do you do?

Again you pick a single topic which you will be speaking about. Remember the maximum length of the video is 9 minutes and 30 seconds (anything even a second longer will not be accepted), so you're not doing a seminar here, and there really isn't enough time to discuss multiple topics. You are creating a "nugget", a single pearl of wisdom, explaining how people can make use of a particular idea.

The point is to create a little video that teaches a useful concept that has something to do about making money. It can be about any money-making topic, applicable for any of the phases of the Penny Millions plan. Remember, most subject matters are broad and a thousand mini videos can be created about a specific sub-topic. For example, talking about trading is a humongous area, but you could break it down to be just for Forex (ignoring stocks, commodities, etc.), however that is still too large. You might want to narrow it down to demonstrating something laser-focuses on a tiny topic like a specific pair of moving-averages and how to profit from them.

Special Note For Network Marketers If you are an experienced network marketer (MLM) you are welcome to share your nuggets of wisdom too. I am creating a special section of the "InspireMoney" website exclusively for those of you interested in this subject. Pick a topic sharing a specialized technique for recruiting, training, or managing your downline and produce a nugget video about that. The training MUST be generic, useful to anyone involved with any networking company, and the video must not mention which company you are involved with. Remember, you are not trying to recruit but rather teach an insightful concept here. Furthermore at the end of the video you can mention how people may find you on facebook, and the web address you provide for me to link to must be to your facebook profile, group, or fan page. The intention of this special MLM project is to create a resource for ALL networkers to enjoy, so they can refer their downlines to learn from all this without the fear that their team will get recruited away from them. Oh and feel free to tell your downline to make use of this resource too! Be sure to read the "MLM Safe" page.

Hmmm, perhaps the above example was way too technical for most of you, and I don't want to scare you off, but it does illustrate how a money-making genre is way too large and can be trimmed down to a specific nugget. How about a video that shows how you bought something at a garage sale and sold it on eBay or Kijiji, explaining how the viewer could do the same. Or how about a video that shares a cool Internet marketing trick explaining how the viewer could do it themselves. What if you share how people could make money sorting through rolls of coins hunting rare specimens. How could someone collect friends on facebook (without getting banned) to build a marketing list? How might someone make money with classified advertising? How can you profit from Google AdSense? Another video about profiting from Google AdWords? How do you install a blog? Why blog? How to blog profitably? How to get a domain name? How to get a website hosted? How to run a lemonade stand? How to make crafts for resale? How to get clients for any business with a specific marketing trick? How to organize your office? How to keep accounting books for their Penny Millions projects? How to search Google for useful information? How to apply "The Secret" for success in business? How to do postcard marketing? How to use the phone effectively for sales? On and on and on and on and on I could go with little suggestions, but why don't you get creative yourself and come up with your own ideas of great little topics that people would enjoy learning about.

Perhaps you could produce a video explaining how to record these videos using a webcam. Explain & demonstrate how easy it is to upload the video to YouTube too. If you create a fantastic video nugget about how to do that then maybe I'll put it here on this page!!!

ToastMasters! Help Please. If you are an experienced ToastMaster speaker then please create a video sharing the toastmasters method of organizing a speech, in the context of what we are doing here. Instruct them to start with a solid intro (explaining what they'll be explaining, and why it is worth the viewers time to watch the whole thing), structuring the body of the presentation (explaining it), and how to wrap up a conclusive close (reiterating what was just explained, and encouraging them to do it themselves). Be sure to explain how to tactfully put at the end of the talk a reference to their own web address inviting people to visit their page on the Internet. Once a toastmaster provides me with a great video I'll replace this message here with your video which will be of benefit to everyone. Thank you in advance for creating this video, and be sure to get it credited as a speech at your club. TIP: As a ToastMaster you are also invited to produce other wonderful videos (read this whole page) as another way for you to practice your craft! Think of it as another platform for you to share your enthralling speeches!

Once you have decided upon a topic then it is time to organize your thoughts about it. You could do something more sophisticated but at least grab a sheet of paper and draft the bullet points of what you plan to discuss. DON'T write a speach, just bullet points of each idea. Once all your ideas are out you then take another piece of paper to write down all the bullet point in the order you plan to cover them.

Be sure to start with a solid introduction, explaining what your little video is about, what the viewer will learn, and why it is worth the viewer's time to watch the whole thing.

Then in the body of the video you will cover all the points that you intend to discuss.

At the end you summarize what they have just learned, and encourage them to put the ideas into practice themselves. You may also now tell them how they may find you on the Internet (your website or facebook address) if they have been inspired by you and would like to find out more about all the wonderful things you do.

Again, don't write a speech, just have bullet points and allow yourself to free-flow. If applicable have props to show in your video, keeping in mind that "show & tell" is a lot more stimulating than just watching your lips move for a few minutes. If you have the technical capabilities to make screen capture videos and/or want to go to the trouble of producing a Power Point presentation, then all the more power to you, but it is not required (though beneficial if you can).

When you are ready, take a shower, comb your hair, grab your webcam or camcorder and start recording your video. You can record right onto your computer or directly into YouTube, whichever works best for you.

Keep in mind that these are amateur videos, so don't stress yourself out about producing something that would be TV quality.

Create a free account at YouTube and upload your video there.

There is just one more thing for you to do before you submit the video you produced to me (instructions on how to submit the video is located below on this page).

You need to write a paragraph explaining what your video is about. Write a paragraph, just a few sentences, about what the video is about and why the visitor should take a few minutes to watch it (what is the benefit). IMPORTANT - be sure to include the relevant key words about what the video is about, and don't be shy to repeat them a couple of times, appropriately, in the body of your paragraph. The reason why this is so important will be revealed later on (when you learn how to make "Daily Nugget" websites yourself).

Now you should have something like this, the following. As an example I've gone to YouTube to find a random cooking video (I searched "vegan pie") and am showing you what your paragraph should look like. I selected a video that I found back in January 2008 and I actually made this pie (with my own home made crust), it was delicious! Keep in mind that I am a really good writer, so don't feel your paragraph has to be as good as mine, just do the best you can. I've deliberately selected this video (non-business related) because I also want to show you that you can do similar stuff for non-business topics (remember, you'll learn more about how to create "Daily Nugget" websites for yourself).

This is a fabulous vegan pie, and who would have thought that tofu could be so delicious in a desert! This exquisite vegan chef reveals the exact step by step instructions on how to make a scrumptious Chocolate Espresso Truffle pie, which is just so easy to make, and your guests will beg you for the recipe. They'll have no clue that there is tofu inside (it's what give it the "cheesecake" like texture), thinking that it's some rich desert that they hesitate yet succumb to devouring a second piece. Watch this less than 5 minute video to learn the secrets of making this easy yet sinfully delicious Chocolate Espresso Truffle pie.

Now if you have your video produced & uploaded to YouTube, and if you have your paragraph written about your video then you are ready to send it to me for publishing. Scroll past the next section to the section explaining how to send it to me.

What if you don't know anything worth sharing?

Seriously, I strongly believe in the quote by Richard Bach that "you teach best that what you most need to learn". You can study something as much as you like, but it is when you attempt to teach the concept to someone else that you really grasp it. Believe me, I've been teaching people cool things for many years, and I've recognized that though I appeared to be the teacher that in fact I was the biggest student! By teaching I learned more than I possibly ever could otherwise. The mental processes of sorting out the ideas to be able to convey them to others makes you integrate the concepts yourself, and makes you realize where the holes are in your knowledge prompting you to go do further research.

If you want to learn about something of interest to you then make a "Nugget Video" about it!!!

Pick a topic that you would like to know more about yourself. To get you started for ideas you can simply flip through the various business books you have at home, in the library or at the book store, and read what the author teaches about some interesting subject.

Google around researching your topic further. If relevant find books that explain the subject of interest. Read, research, learn, ask questions, ask people in forums online, and in general study your subject matter. Also attempt to *DO* what you are learning about! Experience is a better teacher in most cases than exclusively learning from theoretical books.

Then go through the process explained above to create a video about this subject matter. You don't have to be an "expert" or a self-proclaimed guru on the topic. You can be humble and share your gathered wisdom as a fellow wealth-aspirant. Remember that compared to others you now ARE an "expert"; you know more than they do about the subject and they are happy to learn in 3 to 9 minutes the knowledge you gathered about the subject matter.

Trust me and just try this for yourself. Pick a topic that you would like to know more about, research it, then produce a video about it. You'll surprise yourself with how much you'll learn... and hopefully earn from your newly gained knowledge!

How do you send it to me?

The next step is for you to fill out the form (link to it is below) to submit your nugget video submission to me. After I receive your video I will process it and will incorporate it in the appropriate place on the web. Soon after people will start enjoying your video, and hopefully they will come to visit you on the web.

The reason why your video can not be any longer than 9 and a half minutes is because I will download it, add a short video to the front and back side of your video, and then re-upload it to YouTube. The maximum length of a video on YouTube is 10 minutes, so the video can not be longer than that when I upload it.

It is critical that you NOT violate any copyright laws in the video(s) you submit. Do not plagiarize, do not copy content produced by someone else, and by no means send me videos made by someone else. These are serious offences, really, and since you are legally liable for anything you submit YOU could be subject to huge fines and possibly even jail time if you break the law!!! Read the user policies posted on YouTube for further clarity on the matter. If you break the law I will fully cooperate with the law enforcement agencies providing the information I have about you so they can go catch you. Bottom line is just create your own original work and you should be fine.

Submit your video by filling out the form page linked to here, and after you have completed this feel free to create another video to share!

Thank you for sharing your wisdom! We are all looking forward to learning from you, and feel free to enjoy everything that we all produce too!
