For those of you who would like to know more, please read on for a complete description of the course subject, materials included, and cost. We do apologize that this letter is a little long, but Pam and I just wanted everyone to know just how packed this course is and why anyone wanting to begin a successful online business can use our simple to follow, convenient step-by-step online system and construct their very own successful online business.

 

After publishing our first edition of "Cyber Gold" and instructing a live website building course for our local university's continuing education department, Pam and I noticed three dominant thoughts being portrayed while asking ourselves:

 

Why are people so afraid to start an online business that could change their lives?

 

Well, we wanted to know and this is what we found out.

 

The top three concerns are:

 

#1  Building a website looks complicated, can anyone do it?  I don’t know anything about computers.

 

#2   Anyone can build a website, getting traffic to the site is the hard part. How do I get traffic to my site and get sales?

 

#3   How can I find quality, in-demand products to sell if I don’t have my own product, and how do I distribute my products without a warehouse and expensive overhead?

 

We know that starting a small business can be intimidating and that all of these are very understandable concerns and we truly sympathize because we've been there with no one out there to get reliable answers and small business ideas from.

 

 We have been right where you are now and over the years have gained the experience and expertise needed to overcome these top three concerns and turn your desires of building a successful online business and a happier future from a fledgling hope into a science--an exact science.

 

 A process of proven steps that lead you from having no small business plan, no site, no idea, and no hope, to a fully functional and attractive site filled with inventory (that you don’t have to store or pay for up-front and is shipped directly to your customers with YOUR mailing label!), a secure payment process, and up-to-date search engine marketing techniques for steady traffic and steady online sales.

 

 Let’s start by addressing these concerns one at a time…

 

Concern #1

Building a website looks complicated, can anyone do it?  I don’t know anything about computers.

 

Well, WE could tell you all about how simple our course is to follow and how revolutionary it is, but instead thought we would start out by letting our former students tell you themselves…

 

I have had the opportunity to take the “Cyber Gold” course instructed by Pam Mosbrucker and Tobin Alder.  It was an excellent course!  The instructors were very informative and the textbook is well organized and easy to follow.  I started the course almost computer illiterate and had a whole new world opened to me.  It was a great experience.  I have been able to launch a wonderful website.  It was so much fun to learn how to create a website and I look forward to creating more.  I am more than satisfied with the “Cyber Gold” program.  Thank you.

Thanks so much, Holly Gerdes

(Here look at Holly’s website.  No, we're not affiliated, just proud)


Well, that’s all nice and dandy, you might say, but has she sold anything?  Well…

Excellent!  I’ve had so much fun doing this online stuff.  And we’ve made our first sale! Keep in touch, I can’t thank you enough!  I can’t wait to check out the university.

--Holly Gerdes

So what about those of us who are busy?  Must be nice to have all the time to do something you like--but I work all day, how will I find time?

 

 A wise man once said, "if something is important enough, you’ll make the time."

 

But before you begin to make excuses about starting a small business, we just want to point out that Holly took our course this past fall semester (Sept. through Nov.).  She accomplished building a beautiful and successful website (as you can see by visiting the link above) all while taking care of her children, making them Halloween costumes, managing her family and getting ready and prepared for the holidays; and all while entertaining house guests during most of that time period. 

 

And, oh yes, did we  mention she lives out of town and drove from a nearby city 30 miles away twice a week to attend the class?

 

Holly did it, as many others have, and you can do it too!  The "Cyber Gold" course is divided into 6 easy to manage modules outlining step-by-step instructions that lead you through the building process.  Oh, and did we mention the videos?  Yes, in the Member’s Area you’ll also find high quality online video training instruction.  These are step-by-step, giving you personal one-on-one guidance.  More on that later; but for now let’s continue…
 

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Contribution - Read this book first, August 25, 2007
By Dr. Ed Nuhfer
It is difficult to watch television or even to drive around in one's hometown without finding an advertisement enticing the reader to get rich through using her or his computer. Most such efforts are about making the scam artists rich at the expense of the gullible. The victims targeted are motivated people, especially those living in small towns with sparse opportunities. Despite scammers' traps, the Internet truly enables one to remain in such a small town and expand opportunities to make a decent livelihood well beyond those available locally.
 
The authors offer genuine opportunity. They have credibility because they have created their own opportunity in just such a town with sparse resources. Instead of a get-rich quick scheme, these authors offer a very reflective approach through a book that conveys honestly that there is much to know and that maintaining a successful E-commerce business is hard work. However, if seeking a book written to lead the reader by the hand to success, this is the one to buy. Authors address both PC and Macintosh equally--a rarity in most reference books, and you don't need the latest-greatest computer to do anything they tell you to do. Cyber Gold... is well written and well illustrated. If the reader has difficulty understanding the text, there's a picture; if picture and text fail to convey meaning, there's an example. This is a surprisingly fine reference for a person who is a consumer at E-commerce sites too. Knowing how to tell a secure site from an insecure or scam site by its URL is certainly good information for a consumer. Another audience could simply be those who build their own web sites, even if these are not E-Commerce sites. I've purchased books on building web sites such as Dreamweaver for Dummies, and the skills and knowledge are not nearly so clearly presented there as in this resource.
 
This book doesn't present the information in the stuffy style of most references. Instead, the reader feels like he/she is just having a chat with the authors and learning the information through a prose that is genuinely friendly. The publisher of the "...for Dummies" series should hire the authors of Cyber Gold... to rewrite some of their texts. As soon as I cracked open this book, I went to the chapter on meta-tags and immediately improved my own web pages. Not only can readers get a good book, but also it appears from the Amazon pages that readers can take a course from the authors through an accredited university. This is a class act skillfully executed. If the authors put their course online, it will be huge--they may have to attend to that more than the business that they created.
 

(Dr. Ed Nuhfer is a senior geology professor at a prestigious Southern California University)

Is it too complicated?  No.  Others from all walks of life have done this and so can you!  If you ever have questions,  we are here for you—you’re not alone. 

 

We’re here and we’re real.  We will be available to answer questions and will produce instructional aid and materials further ensuring your successful completion.  Try and find that kind of attention with any other online course.  That’s why enrollment is limited, so we can be sure we are giving the best attentive instruction possible.

Thank you Holly and Dr. Nuhfer for your kind words and endorsements, it means the world to Pam and I both, thank you.

And on to our next concern…


 Concern #2

 
Anyone can build a website; getting traffic to the site is the hard part.  How do I get traffic to my site and get sales?

 

Our techniques will show you how to rank in the search engines in 24 hrs!  Yes, that's a bold statement, but it's absolutely true.  It's an exact science.  No more worries about how to get traffic to your website. What we will show you is exactly what Google, MSN, Yahoo, and the rest of the internet wants and exactly what the search engines need for that coveted first page ranking.

 

 How can we be so sure?  Because we have the exact information directly from Google and the other major search engine programmers telling us exactly what the search engine “bots” are looking for when they organize and place/rank your website.

 

  Is it a great secret?  No, but we’ve taken the time and done all the research for you and have seen it work time and time again for all of our students.  We know what works and we are more than happy to show you!

 

If you've noticed lately, search engine placement and tips for building your own home based internet business are real hot topics right now and are all over the internet.  People are talking about and blogging about it--just recently.

 

But, we had it in print, in a published book, more than over a year ago!  Be confident, we really do have the experience to lead you in the right direction.

 

But like we said earlier, don’t take our word for it, read what others have to say themselves…

 

“This book [Cyber Gold] helped me create a website that has climbed to the top of Google, Yahoo, and MSN.com for the search phrase ‘How to Publish a Book.’  I launched August 2007, by December my website drew between 50 and 100 hits per day as a direct result of the Search Engine Optimization strategies discussed in ‘Cyber Gold.’”

“I can not recommend 'Cyber Gold' highly enough.”

 --Stacey Cochran, host of the Raleigh Television Network program "The Artist's Craft"

From taking care of your business licensing to creation of your business identity and finding wholesale product resources; you will create a fully deployable online business ready to roll. 

If you’re looking for quality personal instruction on how to build an e-commerce online business that includes search engine optimization and strategies for making money online, then you’ve come to the right place!

These techniques are covered extensively in "Cyber Gold: A Guidebook on How to Start Your Own Home Based Internet Business, Build an E-Commerce Website, and Complete Search Engine Optimization Strategies," 2nd Edition, but if you’re still unsure, there will be a detailed step-by-step video to show you exactly where and how to optimize your website and find the keywords necessary to make your site explode!

 

Here is what some of our guests at a live panel discussion had to say in North Carolina this past September…

"Pam and Tobin were very knowledgeable about the internet and setting up websites, were clear and relevant with their answers and obviously knew what they were talking about. I wish I could attend the class they are getting ready to teach in Idaho. I did get one of the few available copies of their book, though, so that's nice."  My website: http://www.dothecaribbean.com

"Although I'm not quite ready to create my own webpage yet, I have to say I was so impressed with the info presented by Pam and Tobin. Their book 'Cyber Gold' would be a wonderful reference to anyone building their site and I plan to recommend it to a few people I know just starting out. Glad I attended."

"Very stimulating speakers and group! Best Friday night I have spent in a long time.... "

 

 

Toni
"Very informative”

From the Pacific Northwest to the Eastern shoreline we have been able to deliver quality information that produces quality results!

 

Now on to the last concern…

 

Concern #3

How can I find quality, in-demand products to sell if I don’t have my own product?  And how do I distribute my products without a warehouse and expensive overhead?

 

One word: drop ship.  Now, if you haven’t heard of drop shippers before you’re in for a real treat because without the option of drop shipping, e-commerce as we know it would not only have high overhead, it would be unreliable at best.

 In a nutshell, drop shippers are wholesalers of (or producers of) products and will ship orders directly to your customers. 

So in other words, drop shippers will store all the products, that they make or buy in bulk from larger wholesalers or manufacturers, that you want to sell on your site for you and then, when an order is made on your site, you send them an email (this can also be made to happen automatically with special auto-pilot programs) and they box and ship the item for you directly to your customer with your label and logo right on the shipping box!

 Isn’t that awesome? 

You can literally have hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise you never have to store, insure, or ship.  It’s all done for you!  Now of course the drop shippers will charge a small fee per item shipped (and most don’t even charge a drop ship fee!) but it is usually a small fee, $2.00 to $3.00 at most, and for the most part, a dollar or less.

However, if you have your own product, information, or idea, you are in a great position as well.  Your own product places you in a niche situation almost automatically.  All you have to do is follow our instruction on how to market and find the best keywords for your unique product that will drive buyers right to your site!

And to make it easy, we know two of the best drop ship directories on the net today:  Salehoo and World Wide Brands.  We have used them both and have found them very reliable and extensive.  To check them out, just click the handy links above to find out more.  Four years ago, when Pam and I first heard of drop shippers (then it was a fairly new term and idea and has come a long way since then in convenience and reliability) we felt like we found the mother lode!

 Drop shippers solved all our problems of providing quality products and reliable shipping for all our customers without having to fork out a large amount of cash (that we didn’t have) for storage overhead and pre-paying for a product that may or may not be in demand. 

In other words, if the products we had on our site were not hot and sales became slow for whatever reason, we wouldn’t have to have a “fire sale” like our “brick and mortar” counterparts downtown and take a loss on our inventory--thanks to drop shipping, we would instead just change products on our site--just change a few pictures and descriptions, that’s all.

Neat huh?

Now that the top concerns have been addressed, let’s get to the course and what it has in store for you.  It’s really fantastic! We are so proud of it and are most confident in its ability to not only guide you in creating an awesome website, but also completely optimize and market your products!

 

Hi Pam & Tobin,

 

I met you guys in front of the Walden Bookstore in the mall with my little girl. Just wanted to say I love the book! Wish I would’ve had it when I started my business a year and a half ago. It’s filled with tons of things I need to go back and do, especially on the business side. I was always clueless about the entire dropshipping business. I never knew there were lists of wholesale products out there. That’s awesome! (That’s something I’ve always wanted to know!)

 

BengalDens.com, the local Pocatello Rental Classifieds, is going really well. I’ve learned a ton about SEO and after a year we are one of the most visited real estate sites in Pocatello. So after designing, debugging and running BengalDens.com I realized I had learned .php and mysql databases.

 

The combo works really well with Realtors and Property Managers for their home/rental listings. So I realized I had something to offer, now I'm starting an all-in-one Web Design business called MySitesRock.com. I’m  also going nation-wide next year with an online rental classifieds, Rentology.com. We'll see how it goes!

 

Congratulations on your book! If I can help with ANYTHING just let me know. Sorry I can’t make it to your class this semester. I’m a stay @ home dad with a wife that travels a ton (it’s hard for me to find babysitters, at least during volleyball season)... maybe I can buy you both lunch sometime and pick your brain even more :)

 

Thanks,

CJ Robinson
