  1. I’ve been watching all the videos, and they are amazing.

    Finally, a launch that is showing real-time results during the launch! That in and of itself is a huge credit to amish.

    Thanks for keeping us all updated, and I can’t wait to hear what the bonus is. ; )

    Talk Soon,
    Will

    Well I’ve heard of non-traditional uses of airplane bathrooms but this is a first! I attended Amish’s seminar this last fall and have had access to the software for a couple of months- it is really cool and feature packed. I think for this launch it is going to be updated significantly.

    Mike Hill Reply:

    yeah, honestly, i thought most of this stuff these guys put out is crap. But this is pretty sick. :) VERY bummed I will be on that cruise ship, but at the same time happy i will be.. Like Christmas, but being at a killer place with your family at christmas not able to drive your new car you just got! :)

  9. Mike,

    A video from the bathroom of an airplane… that has to be an internet marketing first!

    Enjoy your trip to Mexico.

  10. Yes, the videos from Amish are awesome and the software looks to really be amazing. Watching the lastest video really shows you how time consuming it is to research, deploy, and optimize an advertising campaign, just on google alone. Even with this great software, it takes Amish 26 minutes just to “overview” the whole process.

    Also, this software is going to be like $3,000 so you better have deep pockets. It’s probably worth it if your marketing efforts are already making $100K a year, but if your a newbie, don’t think your going to plugin a few keywords and start making $462 a day. It’s possible, just very unlikely.

    [Reply]

    Mike Hill Reply:

    yeah it is awesome looking for sure! I cant wait to get my hands on it.

    Here’s the thing to time and scale. You barely touch on this, but a lot of others are greatly concerned with the time that it takes to set things up…

    1. making money online takes time
    2. You must be wiling to dedicate the time needed or dont start for sure, you are setting yourself up for failure and frustration. I usually say, if you ask how much time it will take, its probably not going to work because you end up starting from the wrong perspective. Dont get me wrong, i know its “just a question”, but its more than that, its a way of thinking in my humble opinion (IMHO)
    3. Not sure of the cost yet, but i know it will not be cheap because it comes with the training too. But i know it will not be some 500 thing. this is real business for sure.
    4. The thing I like about this is that if you are starting off small, you can use this kind of thing to really make money because your not limited to just your own knowledge and having to have a huge budget. For example, i picked up a clickbank campaign about 10 days ago. since then i have made about $500 in profit from it with under 20 urls that i target. One of them no one else was targeting. SO, i didnt have to have a huge budget, i think im spending about 20-50/day right now on that camp. So, do you have to spend a lot to prove to yourself you can make money online? heck no! what you do have to do is believe, push, and never give up.
    5. if you do go PPV know that most of those guys DO have a 1k min buy in. However, since he also covers ppc, google as you know has a $20 buy in??? Beuller??? I dont know for sure.

    OK, I hope this come across with all the love, respect, and push that its intended to give to you Clair, I just want you guys to do well :)

    - Mike

    P.S. if anyone reads this post can you please reply, i dont know if you guys read each others comments and id like to know if i should be going this in depth on these :)

    I see it. I don’t really know Amish, but I do trust you, Mike (even though I don’t know you). How secure would our campaign data be using Amish’s system.

    The last thing I want to worry about is finding a successful campaign only to have to compete against Amish’s company.

    It’s a valid concern – maybe someone can get him to address that. Thanks for sharing this.

    yeah, your not alone, got that a few times today. Ill find out on that one :)

    thanks Laurence :)

    Will Reply:

    Mike,

    Nice video but c’mon – don’t try and tell us that you do not know the cost yet – you are promoting it and have an affiliate link under your video above and then trying to tell us you do not know the cost of it? C’mon, we aren’t that silly.

    Anyway, for those wondering, this certainly isn’t targeted at beginners. The software and training has a $3,000 price tag. Ouch! Just another course priced way out of the reach of the people who need this stuff the most.

    Ah well, they will never learn…

    Mike Hill Reply:

    I really dont buddy. If i did, what i would say is “I know its going to be over X”, but i wouldn’t say I dont know unless I really didn’t know. I would respect his wishes to not disclose the price, but one thing you can count on Will is that i wont lie, theres no need for it :)

    There is a debate to be had on the price vs need theory, but thats one for another time. Lets just say if ANYONE really needed it, they could find a way. Start a partnership with 3 other people and the price instantly becomes only 750 each (if it were 3K, but seriously, if you know, you know more than me). So far all i have paid attention to is the content, i dont send emails based on price or bounty, just based on value and i feel this has huge value :)

    remind me to tell you the story of George Tran who could NOT afford to attend the conference the “gurus” were at in 1999, so he waited in the lobby and talked his way in..
    where there is desire, opportunity presents it self (its a long story, im totally summarizing)

    Hope you know i say these things to show, there is no “if”, there is only “how” and “do”.

    Hi Mike:

    Mike Hill Reply:

    yeah, thats one thing I love about the IM guys, they all love to top one another, it does keep raising the bar on the content. Thats half the reason i released Tsunami, to REALLY raise the bar high. I think it did help :) (at least i keep telling myself that)

    Hi Mike,

    I think most of us appreciate your comments, personally, the deeper the better mate. Being new to most of this, you are educating me on what I need to know. I must say I have learnt a great deal sense reading your blog comments and that of all the participants. So do please continue to do what you do mike, and thank you and all participants.

  11. I’ve never seen anything better than this!!! Thank you so much. I use it on my blog now.

  12. Well, something has got to be pretty breakthrough when it gets Mike Hill out of his seat and into an airplane bathroom. Hopefully the price will be within reach of many.

  13. Hello Mike

    Is Amish Stuff for beginners Too?

    [Reply]

    Mike Hill Reply:

    I would say yes Joe, but then again, I have seen those with ZERO experience to some amazing stuff. I dont put limits on anyone, but i do see a lot of people put limits on themselves. :( I would say, if you can read, look up terms that are talked about, then probably yes. HOWEVER, i have not went through the program yet, I am salivating to badly! Heres the good part, if you get ANYTHING like this and you feel like you’re just not dedicated enough, get your money back, i dont know any of these guys that would ever say no to a refund request. Obviously dont take months to decide that… as my dad used to say “shit or get off the pot”. Guess thats why I am the way I am today.. had someone push me to execute constantly and never say “cant” :) Joe, come back and tell me what you do or dont do ok? I love follow up :)

    [Reply]

  14. Hey Mike, I have to agree this system is very slick. I have had day dreams of building something similar for my own use. My only concerns here are…
    1. they would have access to all my campaign data
    and
    2. so many other people are going to have access to this after such a big launch.

    Your thoughts?

    P.S. have fun on the cruise buddy! wish I could have made it this year. Will we see you in Vegas? at ASW ? cheers.

    [Reply]

    Mike Hill Reply:

    me too!

    1. yeah, I was wondering about that too, ill ask Amish.

    2. how many wont matter in this one I dont think Thatcher, there are SO MANY micro niches that people will NEVER consider. So many will just take the big 2-5 and leave it at that. I know for a fact I will would easily make back 10x costs on something like this. FAST

    WHAT! your not coming :( bummer, i just got to know you at the end of last cruise. No not making it for ASW, I pretty much have all the connections i will ever need for two lifetimes, now its all about doing fun stuff, family time, and hoping to give back to you guys and everyone in our extended family :)

    Thatcher Reply:

    Hey man cool thanks. Yeah its a bummer I can’t make it on the cruise, next year for sure. OH and yes I’m pretty sure most people are reading all the comments and your responses, so keep it up :) – Rock on.

    Hi Mike,

    Wow!

    Being a (relative newbie and) member of CPAT you’ve given us the opportunity to be a part of ‘an insider club’. Learning curve is now shooting skywards.

    Love how you continue giving freely.

    Be interested to know your thoughts once you’ve checked it out.

  16. Hi Mike,

    Amish has been doing a great job to grow his business and always thinking what is the next greatest thing to help people to get start an online business. One of the feedback I have provided and never got a response is that it would be great to charge a little more money and provide helpdesk support on the tool. Do you know they will provide PDF report to support the video training?

    In addition, not sure if it is appropriate or not to inquire to see if there are other people would be interested to form a group buy on this product. I am sure this is not going to be a cheap product and we can also help each other out.

    So ….. having said that, please accept my apologies if this is inappropriate to solicit a group buy here.

    Thanks again and love reading your response to the reader.

    Cheers,

    Suzi

    hmm, i dont know. To my knowledge were the only ones yet who actually offer point to point email support. Ill ask him :) and Ill ask about the group. I dont know if its “PC” or not either, so lets ask and beg forgiveness :)

    Mike,

    I respect your insight and opinion, so please post your honest evaluation ‘after’ you’ve go through their system. I’m also interested in what you think about managing campaigns inside their system where they will have complete access to exactly how all these people are doing everything, especially for really successful campaigns… Could be a real nice competitor swipe file and market research all in one… for them. These guys are known for being the kings of black hat techniques. Am I over-reacting?

    [Reply]

    Mike Hill Reply:

    you got it steve. Honestly, thats why i didnt go to the event. I had heard some things like that too, but after talking more with Amish I havent seen any black hat in this at all. I dont do black hat. Ill find out about that whole “who can see my stuff” and post here for you guys. Ill happily let you know after i review too. My only concern would be him closin the doors and guys who want it losing out. I error on the side of getting then return if i have to if its a no go..that being said, its obvious, I’m not opposed to saying “cough up my money back” to anyone. However, i never start with that intent :) Keep an eye out buddy ill post ASAP (board the boat tomorrow) :)

    [Reply]

  19. Well, Mike, I’d say this qualifies you for at least an honorary memebership in the Mile High Club, and that’s from a former travel agent for umpteen years.

    Yes, I saw the videos and agree with you.

    Yes, I read the comments and if I see you’ve responded, I keep reading, so no, you are not wasting your breath.

    Have fun in the sun, for me too, I’m stuck in the New England snow!!

    That software is killer. I can tell why you’re so excited….I am too. I’ll be checking my mailbox for your link on Monday. I’ll be on the cruise with you so I hope the Internet is fast enough on that thing for me to reserve my spot.

  21. I’ve seen it for some time now, only thing is Amish has not presented a price for this software…it’s mind blowing???

    [Reply]

  22. This looks similar to the Firepow (blog building) software, except ten times better! That software alone is $127 a month to use as a member. . .

  24. Mike,

    So hyped on it as well. Such a teaser to finally see behind the curtains. I was blown away at how thorough MB is, as well as how simple/clean the interface is. For such a powerful complex software… that thing was like dumby-proof. Very very cool.

    Looking forward to your garnish on this.

    Enjoy the cruise!

    Ps. Your airplane bathroom vid was priceless real-deal awesome. Cheers’

  25. Software price point is @ $2997 with possible monthly for hosting on their servers. Not to hard to find the price if you know where to look.

    Even at half the price if you hooked up your own affiliate link through a friend, truth be told…..looks great, but it’s still going to take $ to make $.

    Failed campaigns…..takes $ to run ‘em and failed=lost, what about being accepted into the networks.

    Not trying to put a downer on it…..but it always seems that there’s always an answer in that new shiny object every 2 months or so.

    All true things about buying media costing money, possibility of losing money AND that it takes money to make money.. could not agree with those more :)

    not a downer at all Lee. These are all the points that continue to keep the market thinner and profitable. Now that there have been recent changes with offers and visa, its going to get even thinner! Which for those willing to play, makes it better! Ad rates just went down AGAIN :) :) :)

    In media buying, its hard to sell for more than market value,, the key is to buy WAY below market value. Timing is everything

    I appreciate all feedback Lee :) Night buddy,

  27. Hi Mike,
    Thanks for your review. Being a newbie a positive review from a respected marketer like yourself gave me confidence to buy the Magic Bullet System. I have just bought the MB during the second release through your email link.
    Can you please advise how do I now go about getting your CPA Tsunami bonus?
    Thanks
