"Yanik Silver's 30th Birthday Bash"

Dear Internet friend,

Wow!! I can't believe I'm turning 30…

It's the big "three-o" for me and I figured that's a darn good reason to throw a HUGE birthday celebration…I'm talking a mega blow out!

This spectacular Customer Appreciation Celebration and 30th Birthday Bash is going on January 16th and 17th, 2004 in Orlando, Florida. Trust, me it's going to be the biggest, most valuable, most extraordinary, "JUMBO" 2-day event you've ever attended (and it's definitely guaranteed to be the most FUN!).

And to the utter amazement of everyone who knows me - I've decided to make the whole thing absolutely FREE!...

That's right, this is my way to express my appreciation for the tremendous support my valued customers and subscribers have given me during my first years online…and I couldn't think of a better way than celebrating my birthday along with the people who made it possible for me to live the kind of life I do.

Plus, I'm going to invite a bunch of my Internet marketing buddies (who also happen to be world-class experts) to be in attendance to make this THE networking and 'deal making' event of the year (probably the decade).

Listen, there are no strings attached to this free offer. And this is definitely not some 'pitch-a-thon'. Not at all. You'll be getting very valuable information you'll never see or hear anywhere else.

Frankly, my "30th Birthday Bash and Customer Celebration" party is going to make all other conferences and seminars added together pale in comparison.

But the one glitch is we can only accommodate an absolute MAXIMUM of 417 attendees (that's what the local Fire Marshall says is the maximum room capacity). Over 62,215+ of my customers and subscribers will hear about this. Plus, several speakers will be inviting their "VIP" customers/subscribers so I fully anticipate this selling out faster than a Hollywood breakup. However, if there are any seats left after the early registration period - they'll be offered at full price. I seriously doubt this will occur so if you set this aside it will most likely be too late to get in.

I am approaching this "celebration" as the biggest event in the history of my business career, and I'm going to be working very hard to make it extremely profitable (and FUN) for everyone who attends.

Let's start with the incredible line-up of featured guest presenters (definitely not the same people you see every other month on the "circuit"):

Featured Expert #1: Corey Rudl

First, I've got none other than Corey Rudl himself.

It's rare for Corey to speak anywhere nowadays because it's just not worth his time. In fact, the last time I saw Corey speak I was sitting in the audience at a $5,000 per person event in Hawaii (and that was over 2 years ago). I had pull in some major favors to get him to show up. Right now if you wanted Corey's personal advice it would cost you a whopping $1,280.00 per hour - but the truth is he rarely has time anymore to consult so you could be waiting for months and months.

But you'll be lucky enough at my 30th Birthday Bash to hear Corey share the same secrets he used to balloon his one-man operation into a $6.6 million Internet company - on a shoestring budget. In fact, last year alone - Corey pulled in over $2.2 million simply using email strategies.

Corey's sites attract over 450,000 visitors every week (Yes, I said every week!). With one small office and 11 employees, his four online businesses broke $6.6 million last year in gross revenue. That's over $472,000 per employee -- even more than Microsoft makes on a per employee basis -- and unthinkable to most offline businesses. This is one more example of how Corey outperforms competitors, using the same strategies he will be teaching you LIVE! (Definitely not the same stuff in his courses, tapes and manuals.)

So it's a safe bet I'm going to be paying careful attention to everything Corey will be talking about.

But that's still just the beginning…

Featured Expert #2: Jim Edwards

My good friend Jim Edwards has also agreed to be on board. In 1997 Jim became one of the true pioneers of the ebook industry. He had no guidance, virtually no help, and was completely self-taught. Yet he managed to sell thousands of dollars worth of ebooks (even though that phrase hadn't even been invented yet!)

Jim got so good at selling products and information on the Internet that he got written up in the New York Times, the Richmond Times Dispatch and a number of other newspapers and radio stations across the USA.

Flash forward to today. Jim currently operates 11 online businesses selling information products, how-to CDs, ebooks, and software. Last year Jim's sales topped out at over $441,000 with more than 8,493 individual sales - 100% of it online (with no employees)!

If anyone can teach you how to set up the type of remote control, 24/7 online "cash machine" like you want ... it's Jim Edwards!

Jim will be covering:

• Unleashing your own "multi-media" product powerhouse. Jim's finally going to come clean on how he creates his breakthrough "I gotta tell you" newsletter, Audio Ebooks, his CD-roms and brand new DVDs.

• How to turn your ordinary $15 ebook into a $1,000.00 mega money maker.

• How to create a non-stop traffic explosion for FREE with simple ezine articles you can whip out in 20 minutes or less (even if you can't write)…plus lots more…

Featured Expert #3: Tom Antion

Next, I've got Tom Antion. Tom has quietly built the biggest email list of people in his own niche of speaking and presenting professionals (over 105,000+ subscribers in 80 countries). Tom's a master of showing people his lazy "sit on your butt" method for making money online.

He'll be covering his "Three Prong Attack to a six figure income". After hearing Tom you'll discover:

• Extremely cheap website development -- Tom has three sites that cost less than $350.00 each to develop which bring in over $100,000.00 per year.
• Permission based email marketing secrets -- With this knowledge you'll never have to waste money on advertising or promotional literature again (including the truth about getting "co-reg" names to perform).
• Product development -- You can have a new product that sells around the world in just a few hours. (I've seen first-hand as Tom creates simple niche projects in several different categories that just keep selling and selling on autopilot.)

Featured Expert #4: Bill Glazer

Bill Glazer is one of my fellow Dan Kennedy Platinum members and I've asked him to come give you the secret key to literally doubling your Internet business. This is something nobody else talks about it (because they don't know about it). I promise it could mean a fortune to you.

What is it?

I'm talking about moving your online-only customers and prospects offline -- and then the reverse -- going offline to drive people online. Bill is a master at using outrageous marketing to get massive results. He'll show you proven and tested methods for using direct mail, postcards, space advertising, "lumpy mail" and lots of other ways to give you a totally unheard of advantage over any online-only competitor.

Bill's presentation will be the "7 Key Principles That You Must Understand In Order To Multiply The Value Of Your Internet Marketing Business."

Trust me, if you are only marketing online you're only making a fraction of what you could be earning so be sure you catch this presentation.

Okay, but we're still not done yet…

Featured Expert #5: Steve Harrison

Since 1986, Steve Harrison has helped more people become guests on radio and TV talks shows than any PR service on the planet. Since 1986, more than 10,000 authors and spokespeople have appeared on radio and TV talk shows as a direct result of working appearing in his company's "Radio Television Interview Report".

His clients have appeared on such national television talk shows as Oprah, the Today Show, Larry King, CNN and thousands of radio stations across the country. His magazine has helped launch such best-selling books as "Embraced by the Light", "Chicken Soup for the Soul" and "Rich Dad Poor Dad".

Do you realize how powerful free media and publicity could be to your Internet business? Knowing how to persuade the media to give you coverage can quite literally put millions of dollars in your pocket. I'm not joking!

Just one good mention in a major publication…a radio interview …or getting on national TV could literally send swarms of hungry visitors to your site.

However, most people shoot themselves in the foot by not knowing how to pitch the major media. Some even get blacklisted. The sad truth is most publicity seekers don't have a clue on how to pitch the media effectively. (They only THINK they do.)

That's why I'm so excited that Steve will be down in Orlando with us sharing his secrets on "How to Sell Tons of Products or Services Online By Getting Free Publicity from Radio, TV, Newspapers, Magazines and Other Media"

Imagine if you could get thousands of new customers without ever spending a penny on advertising! You'll find out:

• What you need to do to appear as a guest on national TV shows like Oprah, Today, and Good Morning America, and the Fox News Channel.

• The real reasons most editors and producers turn people's "story ideas" down and what you can do so it doesn't happen to you

• 10 ways to develop "hooks" that grab the media's interest and make them want to write about you

• What to say (and what not to say) when talking to an editor on the phone
• How to become the "expert" the media call when your topic hits the news and more…

Featured Expert #6: Janet Switzer

For most people Janet's name is completely unknown but to those "in the know" she's the secret weapon behind some of the biggest names in marketing. For her few select clients, she's generated as much as $105,000 in five weeks, $31,000 in a matter of hours - and for her last lucky client - $1,018,729 in just 294 days!

She has the uncanny knack of taking a book, an idea, a training concept or a successful business model and literally creating an information and publishing empire around it. She's done it for some of the best - Jay Abraham, Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, Laurie Beth Jones, Positive Changes Hypnosis and others - often creating tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of dollars in record-time, out of thin air...but more often launching formidable and enviably successful new industry giants in the process.

Janet's specialty is showing you how to take your information product and re-package it as a super expensive package (I'm talking $1,000.00, $5,000.00, $10,000.00 or even $25,000.00 or more).

How about these ringing endorsements? "Janet Switzer is one of the best marketing minds on the planet. She's easily made me hundreds of thousands of dollars with her simple strategies - including one that makes me over $100,000 every time I use it. She can do the same or more for you."
- Mark Victor Hansen, Co-Creator of the New York Times #1 Bestselling Book Series Chicken Soup for the Soul

"The first strategy Janet developed for me turned a $572 expenditure into $31,000 in just six hours. Her second turned $1,280 into $105,000 in just six weeks. It's no wonder I've sought Janet's day-to-day expertise over the past five years...she makes me tons of money, she brings valuable new products and services to my customers, she enables me to do positive things for people - and she accomplishes it all with modest outlays, keen judgment and bullet-proof insight. I regularly recommend her to others."
- Jack Canfield, co-creator of the New York Times #1 bestselling book series Chicken Soup for the Soul and America's foremost expert on self-esteem in the workplace and classroom

If you've ever wanted to transform your ideas into millions of dollars in revenue from certification programs, home-study courses, teleseminars, boot camps, subscription consulting, corporate training contracts and 52 other super-lucrative areas, don't you dare miss this opportunity to meet Janet.

And here's one more last-minute addition…

Featured Expert #7: Marlon Sanders

Some people call Marlon "Zany" and "Crazy" but after his presentation I think you'll call him your "Money Messiah"!

If you've haven't been living under a rock, then I'm sure you know that Marlon Sanders is another Internet marketing legend. His products are seen virtually everywhere on the worldwide web!

There's got to be a reason why Marlon keeps getting invited back to big-ticket seminars to teach copywriting. (At last count he's presented at over 120 events where people paid $3,000.00+.)

However, he's significantly cut back on his speaking schedule so like the other featured experts you won't see Marlon at every event in town. In fact, I really had to twist Marlon's arm to get him to come down to Florida.

I guarantee you'll be shocked and amazed at Marlon's simple formulas for cranking out psychologically charged sales copy to sell just about any product or service you have. Marlon has grudgingly agreed to share his newest secrets and discoveries with you in Orlando.

Okay and then there's me, the birthday boy

Most of you already know me well so I'll skip the intro (if you want more info check out: www.yaniksilver.com)

I'm going to take you on a "tour" of insider secrets of Internet marketing, super powerful web copy, psychological motivators online, instant product development, automatic traffic systems and even more recent developments I haven't shared anywhere else.

You'll get my jealously guarded secrets like these:

• How to make six-figures with resale rights (there's a wrong way and there's a right way)

• How to find, use, re-package and sell public domain information without paying a dime in fees or asking permission. (Trust me, this section alone will be worth your entire trip because there are millions and millions of pages of content all yours for the taking if you understand how public domain works).

• The 13 most powerful psychological tactics you must use to maximize your sales and get customers to buy right now.

• My 7 very personal 'mind set' tweaks that took me from being a "wage slave" to having complete financial freedom and making a sky high six-figure income each year. And much more…

Plus, there is also a Surprise Mystery Presenter who I haven't firmed up yet at the time of this letter. But I promise this person will be leave your head spinning with new ideas and insights.

I think you'll agree with the caliber of speakers I've got lined up for you -- this event could easily go for $1,000.00 - $3,000.00 per seat (and it would still be a steal). In fact, I was toying with the idea of charging several thousand dollars but decided against it in favor of something much more meaningful and personal to me.

I'll let you in on that in a moment - but for now let's continue...

In addition to the guest speakers and my presentations, here are some other valuable components of this phenomenal event you can look forward to:

Since this is going to be huge blow-out I'm inviting a ton of my Internet friends from my "inner circle" to join you and me in Orlando. There will be lots of big-guns and names you'll immediately recognize when you see them. Now I didn't want to print everyone's name here in case you'd be disappointed if someone you were hoping to meet couldn't make it. But I can promise you, I'm good friends with all the top Internet experts and I know a majority of them wouldn't want to miss this party.

Not only will you have ample time to network and "mingle" with these other experts but I'm also going to put them to work for you (no free rides for my buddies ).

In each case, I'll be hand-picking the VIP guests and selected clients/students and literally dragging them up on stage forcing them to reveal their best real-world advice. I'll be grilling each person to pull out their most prized secrets and then you'll have a chance to ask any question you want on these 3 important topics:

Panel #1: Traffic Generating Secrets:

Stop wishing and praying for more traffic to your site! During this panel, you'll get the inside-skinny on the absolute best ways to instantly drive targeted traffic to site from the Internet's head honcho traffic experts.

I'm talking pay-per-click, Google Ad Words, viral ebooks, ezines, articles, linking, smart pages, affiliate programs…you name it - it'll be covered. You'll see exactly what they do to double or triple their web site's traffic.

Panel #2: Powerful Copywriting Secrets:

Here's the real difference between sites that SELL and sites that SUFFER...

There are some sites out there that are literally making an obscene fortune. And the kicker is, these sites are mostly one- or two-paged, single-person, low-budget operations! So, why are huge corporations losing their shirts online while these simple, low-budget sites are selling like crazy? The REAL reason most websites (even huge ones with unlimited marketing budgets) can't turn a profit is because they LACK strong, compelling copy...

Pure and simple. That's why you'll hear and have all your copywriting questions answered by some of the world's best "self-taught" copy wizards, who for their own businesses and/or clients are able to create huge pay days virtually overnight with only words on a computer screen.

Panel #3: Product Development and Creation

In panel #3, you'll hear and have all your questions answered by the top "gurus" of product creation. You know you need to have your own product to keep 100% of the money - but it's not that easy until now….see and hear exactly how these ultra prolific product creators crank out one moneymaking project right after another. If you've ever wanted to create your product (that you can sell over and over again), you can't afford to miss this session.

And it just keeps getting better because I have yet another incredible bonus in store for you -- I'm going to let you….

As some of you know, this year I started a one-year Apprenticeship program where I allowed 12 select individuals to work one-on-one with me to create their Internet empires. The fee was a hefty $14,500.00 and it sold out in no-time flat. (I turned away tens of thousands of dollars from individuals who did not meet my strict qualifications.)

Each Apprentice was required sign a strict confidentiality pledge to be personally hand trained and mentored throughout the year. The result? These individuals are now the Navy SEALS of Internet marketing.

The first 2 projects knocked out by my Apprentice group are already big-time winners. One Apprentice made over $10,120.18 in the first 2 weeks of their launch and it's still pumping hot and heavy.

Another Apprentice was just testing his project with Google Ad Words and accidentally discovered his project has all the signs of a major home run! In the first 8 days, practically doing nothing, it brought in $5,388.70. And his project is easily on target to hit six-figures his first year out. (In fact, this project could actually eclipse some of my best-selling products.)

Plus, I've got a half-dozen other Apprentices "on deck" waiting in the wings to launch. By the Birthday Bash, I fully expect nearly all of them will be launched and making gobs and gobs of money.

So here's what I'm going to do….instead of hearing more from me or another expert - I'm going to let my Apprentices (many of whom are from all over the world including UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, etc) give you a totally uncensored point-by-point blow of exactly how they put their projects together from start to finish…from incubation to putting cash in the bank!

Now keep in mind, this part of the event is NOT going to be some carefully thought out, scripted presentation, where some important information is deliberately left out or only certain selective ideas are shared. This will be a totally off the cuff "show-n-tell" discussion, with each Apprentice thinking on their feet, sharing exactly what worked for them in the real world.

Don't forget, just one Apprentice's "download" would be a $14,500.00 education by itself - but I'm going to do my best to coax several of my successful Apprentices down to Orlando (I can be pretty persuasive at times). So this way you'll be getting multiple tens of thousands of dollars of insight and advice in this session alone.

Now with the 'business' side of things out of the way - let's talk for a moment about all the FUN stuff I've got in store for you.

First, like I promised this is going to be the most FUN you've ever had at an event. We're talking prizes, games, contests, free birthday cake and all kinds of other surprises I don't want to spoil.

And to top it all off -- I've got a overflowing "goodie bag" reserved with your name on it…

Remember when you were a little kid and you'd come home from birthday parties with a little "goodie bag" filled with toys and gifts? Well, I don't know why that stopped. Today when I go to a birthday party I only get stuck with a bill for dinner.

That's why I'm doing something about it and starting the tradition of giving "goodie bags" away again.

I've arranged for you to walk away with a "goodie bag" packed with all kinds of nifty freebies and special info. Many of the presenters and my special VIP guests will be giving you some of their best information, reports, CD, ebooks, software, special discounts, etc. etc. all stuffed into your "goodie bag".

Fact is, I'm sure the total value of everything including in there will be several hundred bucks.

Stay for a 3rd day and you'll actually "DO" what we've been talking about during the previous two days. We're going to bring in a T-1 Internet connection and everyone's laptops will be hooked into the network and online.

In small groups, you'll work on the most important aspects of a real-world Internet marketing project… "product creation"…. "market identification"… "keyword research"… "writing powerful email and web copy"… "creating traffic generation magnets"… "affiliate program implementation"…and much more, with hands-on, over-your-shoulder help from my team of Internet experts-turned coaches. You'll have team leaders who are Apprentices or other highly successful Internet marketers. Plus, I'll have crack team of technical experts to help with "techno dweeb" stuff like coding and HTML. (Don't worry, technical skills are not required on your part.)

You'll present your work and have it critiqued. We'll be racing against the clock. Working under frantic pressure to come up with a real-world, moneymaking Internet project. We're not even stopping to eat - you'll get lunch brought in so you can keep going and keep working.

Because it is a workshop, not a seminar, I have to limit it to no more than 50 registrants, and I may cut it off at 35. I'm still working out all the details as I write this. And there will be not be one minute of this taped so no portion will be available later on.

The fee for this optional third day workshop is only $795 and will be held on January 18, 2004. (Click here to register for the Birthday Bash and/or optional 3rd day workshop)

Now at the risk of sounding insulting,there is no sane case to be made for missing this "Birthday Bash and Customer Celebration" event. Heck, I even made the whole thing FREE (you just have to pay for your travel expenses and meals).

But you can't wait since there are only 417 slots available!

Since this is a FREE event, I'm sure we'll hit the 417 maximum registration number at lightning speed, and will have to turn away dozens of people who fail to respond to this invitation immediately. The only way of being certain of not missing this event is to register right now. Please don't get angry or irritated if you fail to register in time and find out your slot has been taken.

That's why I urge you to get your calendar out and circle this very important date and place:

Friday January 16, 2004 and Saturday January 17, 2004 in Orlando, Florida…Get your registration completed right away by clicking here

Orlando has got to be one of the most enjoyable cities in the country. Not only is the weather beautiful year round (a perfect escape in January) but it's packed with things to do. Be sure to stay an extra day or two and bring the family because within a few surrounding miles you've got all 3 of the Disney theme parks (Disney World, EPCOT and Animal Kingdom). And there's also Universal studios with 2 theme parks (Universal Studios, for movie rides, and Islands of Adventure, for thrills).

What's more, Orlando is also home to countless water parks and other amusements like Sea World and the new Discovery Cove where you can actually swim and interact with dolphins. (Missy and I did this a couple years ago and we had a blast!)

Remember you absolutely have to jump on this now because January is prime vacation time for lots of families heading down to Florida. So why not make this a little tax-deductible vacation for yourself as well? (Please ask your tax professional first.)

There is one simple requirements for getting into the Birthday Bash:
1. There is a $50.00 charitable donation required to attend. The whole $50 will go to Make-a-Wish® of Central and Northern Florida. Your donation will help grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions. I’ve personally donated thousands and thousands of dollars to the Make-a-Wish Foundation ® and I’m hoping that we’ll able to grant at least 2 or 3 wishes with the amount we raise. The $50.00 donation is paid now and is non-refundable to hold your spot -- but there is no fee for the event.

The event is going on at Disney's Coronado Spring Resorts. We have negotiated a special rate of only $131/night with the hotel for seminar attendees (During prime vacation time this is a real steal). Information for registering will be given to you (only) when you have confirmed seminar registration. Let me assure you, Disney's Coronado Spring Resorts is a great resort that you'll really enjoy! It's close to all the Disney parks and other attractions.

And then there's also a second OPTIONAL admission requirement that gets you entered into a fabulous contest!
2. (OPTIONAL) A gag gift for me. Show up with some sort of silly or funny gag gift for me and you'll be entered into a contest for the "best gag gift". The winner will be decided by an attendee vote. You might want to give this gift a bit of thought because the winner will receive either a half-day consultation with me (that's s $2,000.00 value) or $500.00 in cash. And the runner-up will get their choice of one of our best-selling products or $200.00 in cash.

To register, please click here to fill out the form via our safe and secure online server. THERE WILL BE NO PHONE REGISTRATIONS, so please do NOT call our office to register. Since the event is free, I cannot allocate staff time to handle telephone registrations. You will receive a confirming email, including hotel information, shortly after we receive your completed registration. (Patience please - we'll be handling an avalanche of registrations hitting here at once, on top of our regular workload.)

As you'll see on the Registration Form, you may also register up to 2 additional people with you - your spouse, immediate family members, business partners or key employees. There IS a registration fee for these extra attendees of just $49.00 each. Please do not abuse this privilege. And, sorry, since seating is at a premium, no more than 2.

I'm looking forward to seeing you in Orlando!

All the best,

Yanik Silver, AKA "Birthday Boy"

PS #1: It would be a huge mistake to under-value this event just because it is available to you for free. If you can't walk out of here without pages of notes and so many ideas you can't sleep for a week, you'd better hold a mirror up in front of your mouth and check if you're breathing.

PS #2: I know you have to be thinking, "Why is Yanik working so hard to get me to come to a seminar that he is NOT charging for?" Well, this might sound a bit corny, and you might not even believe it, but it's true. I wanted to give something back to the people who have helped me reach financial freedom at such an early age. I thought my 30th birthday is a great reason to celebrate and give you the gifts. I didn't want a seminar fee to be the barrier to keep any of my customers away. I truly value the confidence that you have shown in me by investing in my materials and this is my way of repaying you. (Plus, we're raising money for one of my favorite charities and you'll see how this fits into my 7 personal "wealth mind set tweaks" you'll hear about during my presentation.)
