I have just a few things to share with you...
 

A couple of weeks ago I gave you a pictorial tour around my
backyard.  It started with a "visit" from a wild rabbit that
I took a picture of and shared with you.

Now this I found amazing...I had more click-thrus on that
picture of a wild rabbit than I did on a free ebook give-
away a few issues back.  If you missed that pictorial issue,
you can find it in the archives.  The ezine is entitled, 
"It's been a beautiful day".  The archives are located here:

So what can we learn from this?  What kind of feedback did  I get?  Several readers sent me an email commenting about
how they appreciated my sharing my family with them.  Those
pictures proved that I am a real person...not unlike you.
Readers identified with me, enjoyed the rabbit, the dogs,
and the chickens.  

So I would encourage you to just be real!  Tell your story
and invite people to be your friend.  As you pursue your
online business, building a relationship with your list 
will prove to be one of the most important elements in your
success formula.  You can take that to the bank...
 

Speaking of the bank, I want to thank each of you who made a purchase through one of my affiliate links last month.
It was my best month online so far...Thank you very much! 
 

One of my friends online who is a fellow Kentuckian lives
just down the interstate from me.  He and his wife are
homeschoolers...they have chosen to educate their children
from home and have some really neat resources that they use.

One of these resources is a collection of old radio shows.
These are great for any of you nostalgia buffs as they date
back to the 40's and 50's.  Jim Erskine, my friend, makes 
them available on one of his websites.  

Each week he offers a free selection as a download from his website.  Sign up for his newsletter and you can build your 
own collection of nostalgic radio shows.

The last few weeks I have been busy with Subscribe-a-rama.
I have shipped out several gifts to the lucky winners.  Two
so far went overseas...one to Wales and the other to the
Philippines.  

As soon as I hear back from the other winners, I'll be shipping out more gifts.  Be sure and check your inbox every day to see if you are a winner.  

And make sure you keep your inbox empty...I'm surprised how many folks let their email inbox fill up.  Email bounces 
when you do that, and you could miss a very important 
notice.  
 

Are you interested in building your own opt-in list for your
ezine?  Several people asked me where I got the idea for
Subscribe-a-rama.  

Well, I wish I could say it was a totally original idea, but
that would be stretching the truth just a little.  

Actually I got the idea from a new resource made available 
by Alex Sampson.  It actually has four more ideas for ways 
to build your opt-in list included in the recently released 
video-ebook.  

It has video tutorials explaining how to set up different 
techniques, and takes you step by step through the whole 
process. It's a very good resource if you need to accelerate
your list building efforts.  

Alex is practically giving this thing away...
You won't believe how little he is asking for it...
Look here:

I had a big long spiel about email addresses and providers 
that I just clipped and saved for another time...this ezine
is already long enough today.  

If you haven't joined in the Subscribe-a-rama party,
it's still not too late.  It ends on the 23rd of August, 
so you've got a couple more weeks to be a winner.  

And then the big gift packages will be given away...

Still waiting to hear from Zara, Colin, Evajean, Shirley,
Artie, Bimal, and James...your gifts are waiting...

Til next time,

Be blessed,

JDB
