The Secret To A Million Dollar Launch…

Posted by Mike

Yanik Silver and I are trying to raise $30,000 for Charity.

PICTURES ARE LOCATED HERE: 

http://30kSkyDive.com

We are jumping from a plane at 30,000 feet, tandem style, each of us with an expert.

We are matching the funds donated. As of now we have about $4400 raised so that means we are up to $8800 when we match.

We are asking everyone to donate anything as the funds go to help
young entrepreneurs in Africa through Richard Branson’s Virgin Unite
Charity.

The dive that Yanik and I are doing on July 20th will be one of the highest civilian dives in history.

It is called a H.A.L.O. for “High Altitude” and “Low Open” and it
will be 35 degrees below zero (F) and we will need special suits with
oxygen masks to do the dive or we would not be able to breathe.

The dive will last for 2 minutes and 30 seconds as we free fall to earth for this charity event.

Yes, I am getting nervous, but I am so excited I can not even really
worry about being scared. But I am sure when I get up there I might
just freeze. We shall see :)

For more information or to donate, please go here

http://www.maverickbusinessadventures.com/halo/

All donations over $100 get special marketing gifts from Yanik and
Me. So make sure to help out and get some cool learning material as you
help these young kids in Africa.

Of course it is tax deductible

Well, exactly 3 years ago, I was sitting in a Las Vegas Hotel off the strip at a cafe with Brad Fallon and Paulie Sabol.

We were at the Green Valley Ranch Resort at John Childer’s event.

Brad was talking about how he was #1 in Google for the search term - the coolest guy on the planet -

Over the years, over 100 people have tried to rank #1 for this term in Google. While Brad slipped for a day or 2, no one has been able to take him down.

Yes, it is all in fun, but some people have tried very hard to take him down… including yours truly.

You see, in July of 2005, when Brad was telling me this story, I raced him to my laptop to register the domain name http://thecoolestguyontheplanet.com

I won! I got the domain purchased faster than he could.

Now, while I was not able to knock him off, at least I am happy to know, according to Google, I am the 2nd coolest guy on the planet.

Maybe in a few years (and if I really really try) I might just be the coolest guy on the planet.

So much for this experiment.

Official Baja Maverick Video

May 11, 2008 10:29 PM
Posted by Mike

Finally, a video from Maverick Business Adventures that shows the true spirit of the trip we were on.

This official video, narrated by Yanik Silver (founder) is fun and really gets behind the scenes.

In this video you will see Jesse James, star of the hit TV show Monster Garage as well as all of the people that were on the trip. (Yes, there were 5 Mikes.)

You can even spot me wearing a DO-rag.

Later this week, I will be heading to Las Vegas to do a Triple Threat Top Gun Maverick Extreme Vacation. We will be doing a ZeroG Dive, as well as a Top-Gun Combat Simulated Dog-Fight, and on Day 3 we will be doing a helicoptertour to the Grand Canyon.

The guest business person will be the most popular person in the world of skate boarding. (It is in his contract that we can not mention his name. If you know anything about the world of X-games and skate boarding, only one name would come to mind.)

I will be getting videos for you to watch of that as well, but for now, enjoy this awesome video put together by the Maverick Business Adventures team.

Enjoy!

Hi!

 

I want to take this time to
wish you a very happy holiday and I hope 2006 is even better for you than 2005.

 

I want to thank you for being a
member of my newsletter and I hope we can continue our relationship in the
future.

 

I want to share a story with
you that gives hope to all of us that we can make our dreams come true.

 

Last year I had a member post
on my guestbook how he felt he was being exploited by Guru’s. He felt the only
way they make money online was by telling others how

to make money online… You
know the deal.

 

It turns out, he was just
frustrated, like many of us get when we can taste success so bad and it hurts
when others have it and we struggle to find it.

 

So I asked him to call me and I
spoke to him so firm words of truth and stop the self pity nonsense. Then we
looked at how he was marking and we made some

small adjustments.

 

Basically, we focused on list
building and relationship marketing and making some joint venture partners thru
real relationships by meeting people in person.

 

He took my advice to heart and
I consulted him on his first project. He is a very bright guy, so he did not
need the consulting as much as he needed the kick in the butt

and a mental colon cleanse to
realize that he really could do whatever he set his mind to.

 

You see, he was buried in debt.
hated his hard working Low paying job, had new babies in the home, and his
finances were putting stress on his marriage. (Sound

familiar?)

 

Since we spoke, he has been to
several offline events and seminars. He has made JV partner and relationships
with some of the biggest names in marketing.

 

Fast forward only 8 months.

 

He is now debt free and making
more money online each month than he makes at his job. I did not ask him
permission, but I would like to share the email he just sent to me.

 

I am the guy the cries (yes,
it’s true) in movies- or when you see that 60 year reunion on TV from 2 kids
separated at a young age during WWII in Germany.

 

So when I read this email he
sent me, my eyes watered up. Without getting mushy… his email made my
Christmas.

 

Here is his email to me…

 

Subject: (personal) from
***** *******

Date: 12/24/2005 2:10:29
PM Eastern Standard Time

 

Mike,


I wanted to take the time to write you an email before 2005 ends. Thank
you for all your help. You have become a true friend and gave a gift to my
family that is hard to repay. We have paid off all our debt, we’re going
full time at the end of January (was going to be April 1st), and our
income keeps growing as well as my list :) You didn’t even have to think
about it when I asked you for that interview for ***** and were even
willing to do a promotion. Thank you Mike for being there. I hope you and
your family have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year!

 

 Sincerely,

 ***** ******* 

 


I want to remind you to follow your dreams. Make 2006 a great year. Remember, we
do this so we can have a better life not only for us, but for our families.

 

The entrepreneurial spirit is
one of the greatest gifts you can have in a free society. Don’t let anyone
poison your mind and remember to think positive. - Fire your negative friends
and make sure to become what you know you can in your heart.

 

 

I wish you and your family a
happy holiday and the best of health to all of you.

 

So feel free to respond to this
email and to wish our fellow members a happy holiday on my guestbook here:

God Bless,

The Coolest Guy On The Planet - SEO Experiment

Brad Fallon, friend of mine, is known as one of,
if not, the premier SEO expert in the world. He and his fellow buddies, Andy
Jenkins, Brad Callen, and others have a friendly game to see who can be number
one in Google and yahoo for

THE COOLEST GUY ON THE PLANET

While playing Blackjack in Las Vegas with Brad,
he told me he was number one for that search term, I thought he was kidding. But
I found it to be true and he told me of this competition he has with his other
friends. So I told him I was going to get the domain. He looked and me and we
both almost ran each other over to run to our rooms and get the domain name.

Well, I WON! - I got the domain name before he
could.

To see how I am trying to go from Not RANKED in
the search engines and my quest to be number one and knock off the king using
article submission services, you may want to read the article here…



http://www.the-coolest-guy-on-the-planet.com/

This is a real case study to see if back links
from articles really work (we know they do) and how well they work. I hope you
find it fun to track this over the next few weeks and months.

Thanks,

Mike Filsaime

P.S. Lots of people found the site because I
linked it to my homepages to get index in Google. When they arrived at the site
they must have thought I had a real big head. Anyways, it is all in fun and
really very calculated and it will be a learning experience for me. There are
ways to have fun and learn at the same time and I hope you find this enjoying
while you learn with me.

Re: Me on the Joe and Mable Show
(Link to listen below)

Hi,

I hope you liked my last email yesterday about my trip in Europe.

In that email I told you that I had 3 emails for you in the next 3 days that
were COOL and FUNNY.

Well, for the 1ST one of 3, I may be
NUTS
but I think you will find this site a fresh spin on marketing.

Here is a site that FRESH and FUNNY.

I was a guest "ACTOR" on the show this month.

(No Academy Awards here for me)

So if you want to know some personal secrets about how I suffer from obsessive -
compulsive habits (such as having to do things in even numbers on both sides of
my body, LOL) you may find this pretty funny. I even let you in on my simple
"Macaroni and Cheese"
style Mickey Mouse Diet.

(I like simple frozen foods and
Chef-Boy-Ar-Dee and Ellio’s Pizza
)

So now that you know that I am a "not-so-normal" head case with a
bad diet, try not to laugh to much when you hear this fun audio.

Thanks,

Mike Filsaime

P.S.
If you want to tell me I am nuts (I already know), just go to 
www.replytomike.com

P.P.S.

Don’t forget to look out for the next 2 emails I have to share with you about
some great stuff I came across recently…
