Who Taught Today’s Online Millionaires?
Posted on August 11, 2006
You may have heard this week that marketer Mike Filsaime broke a sales record with a $97 version of his previously released home study course called Butterfly Marketing. This newest offering was a slightly rewritten version of just the manuscript and a few bonus audios but without the Butterfly software and video content.
The launch set records. His payment processor Clickbank, nearly choked. Over $300,000 in sales in just 24 hours.
If you’re on a few internet marketing guru’s mailing lists you likely saw a variety of offers and specials for this. Many top name marketers added on those “order from my link” bonuses to sweeten the deal and make the sale. (None of which I found sweeter than saving 70% and ordering through my own link.)
As I read my copy of the manuscript I tried to keep a new-comer’s perspective. “What would this knowledge mean to me if I was just starting out with an online business?” and “Does this apply to every type of online business?”
The report and my thoughts around it, kept me up all night. Reading and brainstorming…and thinking of a variety of business markets and strategies.
But there was one recurring theme to my thoughts in those late night hours - “Where did Mike Filsaime learn all these marketing strategies that made his online business such a monstrous success?”
The answer was staring me right in the face…
From page 6 of 124 of the manuscript, “I just want to say thanks to two people…”
The first is to Mike’s father.
Then the second acknowledgement: “I also want to thank Mark Joyner. It’s his footsteps and concepts I learned from. I did not invent many of the things I will discuss. Many of them I learned from Mark.” — Mike Filsaime, Butterfly Marketing Manuscript
Actually, Mark is mentioned over 20 times in those 124 pages, so my question is…
“Why am I learning this from Mike? Especially when Mike is only teaching a few of the ways…?”
Now I don’t mean to take away any of Mike Filsaime’s glory. He’s a brilliant marketer, and a great teacher in his own right.
But the strategies don’t suit all markets, business mandates, or personal styles.
That’s when I whipped out my Joyner DVDs and found the answers.
* Answers that I could apply to more than just one website.
* Answers that taught me more about the variety of markets I’m involved in…
And now, Mark’s finally releasing these to the world, available now.
I fully expect to see you on the site.
Honestly and truly,
To your business success,
Laura Childs

I can’t believe it!
As I was one of the first to see Mark Joyner’s return to internet marketing I had no idea the team was planning on releasing an unadvertised bonus worth $4,000 on launch day (today).
As a matter of fact, I haven’t even seen that bonus yet - and I’m steaming!
As far as I know, that bonus has only ever been released to a very select group of online entrepreneurs - the kind of business men and women that build websites with an exit strategy in mind…
If you’re truly ready to learn and apply the strategies that has made Mark Joyner a high-priced consultant and his proteges millions, there is no better time than today to get this information. After today, they’re pulling that unadvertised bonus.
Below you’ll see part of the email Matt Gill just sent me and why you want to check this website out - today.

Laura:
?? So what’s the $4000 bonus? I don’t see where that is explained?
Doug
Hello again Doug!
We just talked on the phone but I’m replying here as well so everyone else knows that the bonus offered today was an unadvertised bonus - it couldn’t be mentioned on the site (and wasn’t an upsell, it was a true free bonus).
Although I now know what it is (and am excited about it) I still haven’t watched it. I’m excited about it because I’ve heard the material spurred a lot of lightbulb moments for many marketers over the past few years.
At any rate, I see you ordered your Mark Joyner package. I’m thrilled for both of us! I know there are a few sites I own that are duds and I’m going to be taking Mark’s high end advice and turning them into something more profitable - then selling them so I can focus on my main event.
We both have some work ahead of us yes?
Mark, Matt and Kevin are likely best resources for any clarification or answers to questions you may have about the content, but I want you to know that I’m still working through this material as well so count me in as one of your resources as well - even just to bounce ideas around with.
Stay in touch! You’ve got my email address and my phone number, don’t hesitate to use them!
Laura
