Our fall courses are now scheduled!  Please mark your calendars:

WordPress 101: Web Design has been scheduled for four Mondays starting Sept. 13, 7-9:30pm EST, plus four Thursdays 3-5pm EST.  This is the internet’s premier training for WordPress website development, oriented towards beginner and intermediate users, not to mention one of the most affordable at just $250.  It consists of 6 lecture/presentation hours and 12 practice hours.  Look at it as an expert-training where you do the work, learning as you go, as I watch over your shoulder answering all your questions – then you go out and create as many sites as you want for each small business you run, in about an hour each.  See below what students have to say about this training.

WordPress 102: Web Marketing is an all-new course.  It runs four Mondays starting Oct. 11, 7-9:30pm, plus four Thursdays 3-5pm EST.  It covers some of the same material as before (newsletter management systems, keyword analysis and optimization, online video etc) but we’ll be taking a much deeper dive into social media and blog marketing. This is the course to learn how to get exposure for your products or services online.  Cost is also $250, or $450 for both courses.

I am not ready to take registrations yet – in fact I am at Burning Man next week (for the second time!) so please be patient with email inquiries – but keep your eye out for another email coming the week of Sept. 7.  There will also be the usual free intro call on Thursday Sept. 9 at 3pm EST.

Here is what some of our students are saying:

“I wanted to thank you for your webinar and your help and assistance during the course. I find it quite amazing I now have a website since just a couple months ago I didn’t have any idea how I was going to accomplish that. Especially since I wanted to do it myself, not hire someone to take it over.” –Leigh Pobst, http://www.reflectionshealingstudio.com/

“Marc is such a delight to work with. With his expertise and instruction, I now have a beautiful and adaptable website for my business “In The Garden, Design, Care & Workshops.” Quite amazing – workable pages up within 2 weeks; looking good in 6 weeks! After many years of procrastination…. I’m enjoying learning “how to” and so excited to finally say “YES, I have a website – www.inthegardendesign.us.”” — Charlotte Kidd

“I can’t tell you how grateful I am to have had the opportunity to work with you on Sam’s site. He is so happy with it and full of expansive ideas. And this was my real goal, so thanks.  You have a special place in my heart and prayers.” – Sister Michaela, www.samkeen.com

“I’m really pleased with the support I received from Marc Beneteau in putting together a web page for a client. I have some limited experience in web design, but nothing in WordPress, and Marc was there every step of the way, not only with the knowledge only a pro has at his fingertips, but with the tenacity of a bulldog in resolving some of the issues and challenges we faced. I think we broke some WordPress ground here, and I would not hesitate to recommend Marc and his services.” – Harry Krause, www.freetradeunionism.org

This astonishing offer just came into my mailbox from my friend and colleague, well-known and very successful internet marketer David Wood:

http://www.getpaidforwhoyouare.com/home.php

I have known David for years, have watched him build an internet empire, which has culminated in this program in which he has condensed his entire business experience into 6 easy-to-follow modules.

The cost?  $97.  Unbelievable.

This program is not just about making money.  It’s about living your purpose and monetizing your passion, some of the same material that I teach in the webinars, and very affordable and well-presented.  You will however need to act soon, as it expires Thursday night Aug. 26 at midnight.

By the way I don’t make any money on this (I could probably find my affiliate link somewhere, but I don’t have time and I need you to see this right away before I can talk to David due to the short offer expiration)

Dear {!firstname},

I just returned from 4 days at the Integral Theory in Action Conference in Pleasant Hill, California.  This is one of the world’s leading interdisciplinary conferences for consciousness development and for business development from an integral or holistic perspective. 

It blew my mind.

And it brought home something that I have been aware of for a while: that in my classes and program I address the technology of success – which is important to master of course – but the far greater issue for most of us is the psychology of success.

Have you ever:

• Wondered why is it so difficult for many of us heart-centered (service-oriented) professionals to make a good living through our passion? 
• Felt like you had to either sacrifice happiness in your pursuit of success, or pursue your happiness (mission or calling) but had difficulty achieving the level of success (income and contribution) that you deeply want?

Well, finally, there is hope.  A lot of people are asking these questions.  There is actually a mass-movement happening right now away from traditional, competitive, dog-eat-dog style of business and towards business as a calling, a mission, that serves both our happiness / fulfillment, and does God’s work in the world. A way of uniting our passion and our livelihood.

Over the coming weeks and months I am going to be introducing you to people who have some ideas on this most thorny problem – who can you help you develop great content, spread your message and gain visibility on the internet. 

Melissa Galt is the first.  Come to a free conference call tomorrow (Tuesday Aug. 3 at 3pm EST) to find out more:

http://wordpressacademy.biz/melissa

Melissa is a mentor of mine, and according to Forbes one of the top 20 women entrepreneurs to follow.  I have been extremely impressed by the quality of her programs, her hard-nosed let’s-get-real style of coaching, her passion for serving, and her authenticity.

For the first time ever, she has gathered her wisdom into a program that will fast-track you to success and happiness through your internet business.  Here is what you will learn on this call:

• Rapidly identify and claim your REAL customer benefits (not what you think)
• Get laser-focused on your ideal client and stop chasing a population
• Easily create great content that attracts your perfect client/customer
• Set up your roadmap for endless customer engagement to keep them hot and buying
• Eliminate writer’s block (and how to get it written for pennies when you hate writing)
• Harness internet power to repurpose your content multiple times automatically
• And more…

The call once again is tomorrow, Tuesday Aug. 3, at 3pm EST, but you must register for it first:

Hope to see you there!

Cheers,

Marc Beneteau

We had a great call last night!  Here is the replay link:

The registration deadline for the WordPress 101 course is approaching, since the course starts Monday July 26 (see the class schedule for the exact dates).  You can immediately register from this link (and remember, with the September session the price increases to the regular $500-600 – heck, you can even register now and take the course in September for half-price, since you can repeat as many times as you want).
