Nobody Sphinn this, please…

Hype in the marketplace… affiliates running wild… but what's it really about?

Today, you're going to get a chance to join a coaching and training program that my colleagues and I have spent 18 months building. That program is called Stompernet… and if you think you know what it is, you're probably wrong.

This is personal for me:

• I am a full time faculty member responsible for developing our search marketing curriculum.
• I am a principal player in the development of Stompernet over the past 18 months.
• I get to work with a team of more than a dozen other brilliant faculty members from a variety of fields.
• I get to work 1 on 1 with Stompernet members through our forums, live events, and my faculty office hours.
• I get a chance to impact the lives of a lot of small business owners by helping them grow their business.
• Plus, they gave me a cool hat and named me "Dean of Faculty," so I make sure everyone else's training is top notch. (It is.)

Naturally, I want as many "SEO Fast Start" readers to join me as possible, but I know that even if you decide to join today, you're probably not going to join through the link I'm about to give you.

That's because it's not an affiliate link. I'm not going to earn a commission if you join through that link… and a lot of our affiliate partners (like Ed Dale, Frank Kern, Eben Pagan, and Rich Schefren) are going to be offering some really great spiffs if you sign up with them.

The only "bonus" I can offer you is a little bit more of my time. If you join with me, through my link, you'll get an extra group coaching call with me each month for your first 3 months in Stompernet. I'm not doing it for a commission - I'm doing it because I want you to succeed and get the most out of the program. After 18 months of working on the inside, with more than a thousand members, I think I've got a pretty good perspective on how to do that.

But if that's not exciting for you, I understand. I can't afford to ship you a giant box of DVDs. I can't let you into my "Super Platinum Xenon Insider Secret Mastermind Circle" because I don't have one. So, if you get a "better offer," don't feel bad about taking it, but do let me know that you've joined.

What Stompernet Is and Isn't:

A lot of people have the idea that Stompernet is some kind of a "business opportunity," or SEO training program, or get-rich-quick scheme. It's not - although we do have some really excellent SEO training inside.

Stompernet is, and always has been, a coaching and training program for business owners. The purpose of this program is to teach people how to run their business, offering as much specialized training as necessary on-demand, so that our members' businesses will grow and they will prosper.

Comparisons to familiar programs are bound to fail because there is simply nothing like it, anywhere.

The SEO training we offer is darned good, the best in my opinion, but that's only a small part of it.  My Adwords course is a part of it. Andy Edmonds' analytics training is part of it.

But naming a few of the training programs gives short shrift to what we've actually built for you in the past year and a half.

We have a team of 15 (!) world class experts as faculty members, developing content and supporting our members through 4-times-per-week "faculty office hours" coaching calls.

Those calls are really cool - we get to answer individual questions, speaking one on one with a student, and it's incredible how much ground we can cover by doing it that way.

Faculty office hours are cool - but so are the forums

But you hardly need to get the faculty members on the phone, because they're in our forums, along with a couple dozen paid expert moderators, and fellow business owners who have usually "been there and done that" before you showed up.

There are over 100,000 posts in those forums, and I've made 3,158 of them. So, when I say that Stompernet is the place to be if you want me to help you grow your business, I'm not kidding - that's where I am.

Sometimes you need more than a quick answer from the forums, which is when you'll probably head over to our media library, and watch one of hundreds of training videos on topics from Adwords to Analytics to Blogging to Conversion to Email Marketing to Outsourcing to SEO to Usability to Zoology.

OK, we don't have anything on Zoology, I just wanted to say something that started with a Z.

Stompernet isn't for everyone.

That's not because you need a bunch of technical knowledge, we've got you covered on that part.

If you're an SEO consultant and you just want to absorb the "latest and greatest," you're not going to enjoy Stompernet after the first month or two. If you want to learn how to grow your consulting business, or about a million other ways you could help your clients grow, I think you'll love it.

If you are a business owner and you want to grow, if you're willing to apply the lessons, and you can take constructive feedback for what it is, then I hope you'll consider joining us today.

If you think you might want to work with me and the rest of my team at Stompernet to grow your business, I know you'll want to take the time to fully explore what this is about. Our latest video shows you exactly what it looks like inside the Stompernet portal - it's only 11 minutes long, so take a peek.

You don't have a lot of time, though - the doors open at 3pm Eastern, and membership is limited.

Because this is a *very* high touch program, we have to limit the number of members we can take in. We can help more people than you might think, but a lot less than what the demand has been. That's why we haven't reopened our doors in more than a year.

We might be open for 24 hours this time, or we might be open for a lot less than that. Once we're full, the doors will close again.

There are some really cool "fast action bonuses" offered to those who take decisive action and join quickly… If you need to take your time and think it over, I understand completely, but I don't want to hear any complaints if you miss out.

If it helps your thinking any, there is a 30-day guarantee so you can spend almost an entire month with us before you decide if it's really right for you.

All right. Enough already - you know what's going on. If you already know you want to join, you can camp out on the countdown page, or wait for an email notification. Once the doors open, there's going to be a mad rush to get those bonuses.

Thanks!

Dan

UPDATE TUESDAY MAY 27:

We had some duplicate signups on Friday, so the doors are open to fill those last few spots, right now. We'll close again by 6pm Eastern time (US).
