Quick Update from the Airport

This is a LONG overdue post, and this post won’t do any justice, but I’ll least let you guys in that I’m still alive. Currently sitting at the President’s Lounge at Intercontinental Airport in Houston waiting for my Emirates flight to Dubai and eventually heading to New Delhi, India.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I will be writing a full review of my experience at Top Affiliate Challenge and posting it in a few days. Overall, it was an amazing experience and I’ve taken a slightly new direction because of it. Just want to give a shout out to the winner, Jonathan Van Clute, for taking the crown and simply being a badass.

I’ll also get back on my regular blog updating routine, so be sure to check back often.

Until then, I’ll be enjoying the Boeing 777-200LR to Dubai.

    Hey Carl, glad to know you’re going to share what you learned in TAC. I’m quite impressed how you did in the show.

    You, Mr. Ken McArthur and your mindset on things definitely made an impact on how I view things now.

    Thanks

    Well, at least you have Ken’s book to read on your 15+ hour flight back to Dubai.

    I just finished mine a few days ago.

    Looking forward to your TAC experience post. ;-)

    Congrats on placing 2nd.

    Carl: congrats on your success on TAC. Coming in directly behind van Clute is quite an accomplishment. Can’t wait to read about your behind-the-scene experiences.

    Carl congrats again on coming 2nd in the Top Affiliate Challenge, I am guessing that since TAC you are going to forget your ‘longtail’ marketing & concentrate on the Van Clute marketing method.

    Thanks guys! My review might be a lengthy one :)

    @Mark C - The fundamentals in the longtail guide carry over everywhere. Think keywords, keywords, and keywords.

    However you’re right, my focus has shifted towards mastering the “Van Clute” method ;)

    Hi Carl,

    I watched TAC pretty religiously and it was cool to see you win 2nd place - congrats! Thanks for sharing some good info on TAC and on this blog - very nice. Looking forward to more of your posts.

    Congrats on manifesting your dreams!!!! Having just read your old blog (typeCarl), I see that you have came a long way in such a short time (one year)!! It interesting to see how your first plan (partnering with a questionable character)did not work. However it led you to discover somethings about yourself and to internet marketing. To come from a newbe to making $100,000+ in five months, to being on TAFC, and now in India (which was your ultimate goal), is an incredible journey!!!
