Corporate Thugs Target Consumer Groups And Consumer Lawyers - Duration: 11:19.
We've all heard the worn-out jokes about lawyers coming from comedians and politicians, and
even our friends.
They refer to lawyers as opportunistic ambulance chasers who are only out to make a quick buck
off of someone else's suffering.
These comments aren't as innocuous as you might think.
In fact, they're focused and developed as a highly financed, well-coordinated, decades-long
smear campaign carried out by business interest groups like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and
the world's biggest insurance corporations.
In 1971, Lewis Powell, before he became a justice on the United States Supreme Court,
sent a memo to business and political leaders, where he outlined what he believed were the
challenges facing the business community, coming from a group that he referred to as
the New Leftists.
During Powell's entire career, as a matter of fact, as a lawyer and as a judge, he was
a loyal, loyal servant to a system where the interest of corporations was always superior
to the interest of consumers who were victimized by those corporations.
In this memo, Powell suggested that business groups, specifically the U.S. Chamber of Commerce,
needed to come forward with direct campaigns in the media and by lobbying politicians to
paint anti-corporatist groups like trial lawyers and consumer groups as enemies of democracy
who are only out to serve themselves.
By the 1980s, the campaign was well underway, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the insurance
industry was leading the charge to discredit and dehumanize and vilify trial lawyers because
they were the only ones holding corporations accountable when they killed or crippled American
consumers with defective products.
Sadly, the public was willing to buy into those lies.
The Chamber of Commerce created a new department that they called the Institute for Legal Reform.
This group was created to be the attack dog of big business and Republicans.
Their only job was to go after trial lawyers for two reasons.
The first reason was because businesses didn't want to pay for their crimes.
The second is because, at the time, trial lawyers were the largest donor group for the
Democratic Party, a trend that's only ended once Citizens United allowed Wall Street bankers
to buy the loyalty of the Democrats.
Once the Chamber and their allies in the political world smeared the image of trial lawyers as
a whole, they began to target specific attorneys and law firms.
In a report issued by the Institute for Legal Reform in October of 2013, the group specifically
listed law firms and individual lawyers who they believed posed the biggest threats to
the profits, the profits of big business.
The attacks from corporate interest groups and politicians took a sinister turn.
In the last few years, they've provided just a small glimpse of what corporations really
want to accomplish, and that is putting consumer trial lawyers behind bars.
That leaves government regulatory agencies as dysfunctional as the FDA, as dysfunctional
as the SEC and the EPA, to keep their eye on corporations and try to keep corporations
honest.
Then, of course, there's America's corporate media that today is fully owned and operated
by huge corporate advertisers who threaten to pull billions of dollars in advertising
from ABC and CBS and NBC if those corporate media types go too far in protecting consumers
against corrupt corporations.
My guest tonight understands the attacks on trial lawyers better than anyone.
He was targeted for prosecution for filing claims against oil giant BP after the Deepwater
Horizon disaster.
Thankfully, he was acquitted by a jury of all 66 counts brought against him by the federal
government.
Throughout the course of his trial, in which he represented himself, he proved that he
was actually a victim of fraud himself.
Joining me now to talk about this is attorney Mikal Watts.
Mikal, take us right to the beginning of the story.
What were you doing that made BP so angry, where the federal government actually sided
up with BP, along with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, in this fight?
Mike, I think it's interesting that in the largest environmental disaster in American
history, an oil spill that lasted 85 days and killed 11 good men, the United States
Department of Justice did not succeed in convicting a single individual within BP for the crimes
that led to that catastrophe.
What it did do is it set up, in conjunction with BP, a fraud task force, where average
citizens were hauled before courts all throughout the Gulf of Mexico and accused of submitting
fraudulent claims against BP.
Unfortunately, as part of that effort, our law firm got swept up in the middle of it
within two weeks of the time that the trial was supposed to begin, so the timing was very
suspicious.
Yeah, it was well-planned.
There's no question BP ... The ugly thing about this is that the U.S. government got
so close to the wishes of BP, it became like a lapdog for BP in many ways.
What did BP do to try to stop you from doing your job?
How extensive was it even before you went to trial?
Where do I start, right?
The bottom line is that about 360 different lawyers working together were putting together
the evidence against BP and the fraud allocution trial where the judge was going to decide
who was responsible for what percentage of the fault and who was liable for punitive
damages.
That trial was supposed to begin on February the 25th of 2013, and much to my shock, 17
days before, two of my offices were raided by the United States Secret Service.
There was an assistant United States prosecutor from the Southern District of Mississippi
who traveled to Texas to oversee the raids.
I was in Miami at the American Association of Justice Winter Convention and found out
about it through frantic phone calls, frantic texts.
We didn't know what was happening.
What I knew is is that I was one of the primary lawyers that was supposed to take on BP in
what was the trial of the century supposed to start 17 days later, and all of the sudden
my offices got raided.
It was a surprise, to say the least.
Mikal, I can tell you, let me say this for you.
You were regarded as one of the most effective trial lawyers on the team that was supposed
to be ...
I appreciate that.
... trying the case against BP.
You had taken the key depositions.
You had hammered BP.
You showed their criminal conduct.
You showed 100 different ways that the feds should have thrown these corporate thugs in
prison.
Deposition after deposition, you showed that, so I have a hard time believing this was just
a coincidence that all of a sudden BP talks the federal government into prosecuting you.
Let me get to the good part of this story.
You took them on, and you said, "Okay, you want a story?
Let me try my own case in front of you in trial."
You tried the case in Mississippi.
What were the results?
The results were as I predicted.
We didn't do anything wrong.
We knew it from the start.
It was a completely specious prosecution, what the motives were.
It's hard to even fathom that a United States attorney would try to wreck a law firm and
the 140 people that work there with the scant evidence that they had.
It helped that we didn't do it.
I felt that I was uniquely situated to defend myself, so I could talk to the jury every
day about what was happening and extol the virtue of what mass tort lawyers like you
and I do on a daily basis.
I think that that helped get the jury behind what was going on in terms of what the goals
were, and this case against BP was a righteous lawsuit.
Mikal, one thing you did is you rocked the world of a federal prosecutor who routinely
had set up for corporations versus trial lawyers.
You weren't the first one.
This was not the first time a corporation talked the government into going after a trial
lawyer.
You rocked this guy's world.
I think he quit right after the case.
Tell me about it.
In terms of not being the first time, some of the most prominent trial lawyers in the
United States ... A gentleman and a friend of mine now, Paul Minor, who you knew well,
in Mississippi was indicted and sentenced to 11 years for something that is beyond me
that he did anything wrong.
I think it was outrageous.
The largest class-action lawyers in the country got prosecuted for things that, I don't know,
I didn't see anything criminal there.
Dickie Scruggs, everybody is prosecuted under the Bush administration.
Mikal, I know you lived through the time when corporate America had the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce, they had the biggest insurance companies in the world, that had this plan that they
had focused for a decade how to go after trial lawyers.
Then it finally evolved to one thing we're going to do is, if it's a trial lawyer going
after a corporation, we're going to figure out how to put that trial lawyer in prison.
Let me ask you this.
Out of this, if you were to give us your ideas about what needs to be reformed, I mean immediately,
what do we need to do to change this scam type of prosecution that's been taking place
in the last 10 years?
The bottom line is it's without doubt that for the last 40 years it has been a goal of
the opponents of the Democratic Party to defund the party by going after trial lawyers, and
that's been a very conscientious, deliberate effort with $660 million of paid advertising
designed to, in effect, affect juries before they sit.
This phenomenon of criminalizing our politics, as has happened since Karl Rove took over
the Bush White House in the early 2000s and going after trial lawyers criminally, is I
guess now about 12 or 13 years old.
It's just shocking that this kind of thing could happen here in the United States.
To answer your question, there's a lot of things that ought to be done.
First, the entire federal criminal justice system is built upon the pressure that the
government can put on individuals who cannot bear that pressure, getting people to roll
over on people, to say things that aren't true, to threaten witnesses.
If they don't do X, they don't do Y, they're going to get prosecuted along with them.
Buy your peace by rolling over on someone else.
We were able to show that that happened in our case, but there's absolutely no consequence
whatsoever to any United States attorney that brings charges, however specious, however
false, however ridiculous as the charges against me were.
At the end of the day, I just got to go home, but there was no consequence on the prosecutor
for leaking evidence to the press, for bringing false charges, for pressuring people, for
putting their lives at jeopardy, just so that this guy could get a notch on his belt.
It was wrong then.
It's wrong now.
That needs to change.
There needs to be a substantial process where the United States Department of Justice remembers
that when its prosecutors take that oath, they're swearing, not that they're going to
get every conviction, but that they're going to do justice, and the goal is convictions.
This is a prosecutor that probably should not have been around that long after we saw
what he did in other cases.
Mikal, thank you.
Congratulations.
Keep up the fight.
I'm glad you're out there.

Tomorrow is Camp Nanowrimo! [CC] - Duration: 2:52.
Hello Rebel, and welcome back to my life.
It's March 31st, and you know what that means!
… You … DO you know what it means?
I don't, actually, I was hoping you did.
Well, among other things, it means that tomorrow is the start of Camp Nanowrimo!
I'm trying to remember if I've ever intentionally done a Nanowrimo event and completed it.
I don't … think so?
Like, I know there have been past Novembers and Aprils where I've written 50,000 words,
or more than that, and completed a book, but never as an active participant of the event.
I'm gonna give this one a shot, because by the time you're watching this, I'm
either done or very close to being done with the outline for Yerrin, the sixth book in
the Nightblade Epic.
Oh, did I not mention that?
Did I not mention that the restoration project is OVER and I am now writing a NEW BOOK?!?!?!
(I'm a little bit excited about it.)
So over the years I've tried many different productivity tricks to get myself to produce
the amount of things I need to produce in the time I need to produce them.
And one of the biggest ones, for me, for my overall productivity, was learning to monitor
the amount of time I was putting into my books, rather than the results.
In other words, when I tried to hit a daily word count, I would miss more often than I
would hit.
But then sometimes I would have days where I went WAAAY over my word count goal.
If I was supposed to write 6,000 words in a day, I would write 16,000 words instead.
Now, you'd think that would be a good thing, but that usually meant I would take it easier
on myself the next day, since I had this "buffer."
And then that day would bleed over into the next day, and soon I wasn't hitting my word
counts at all, and some days I'd find it impossible to get started at all.
So now my number one priority is to get four HOURS of work in every day, Monday through
Saturday, with Sundays off.
I'm allowed to work Sundays if I want to, but I'm also allowed to take the day off.
Sometimes those four hours are less productive, sometimes they're more productive.
But I know that if I'm in my chair and writing for those four hours, I am going to get words
down every single day, and after a period of time, that will result in a book.
So I'm going to take the same approach to Camp Nanowrimo starting tomorrow, but there
is a problem with this, which is that I'm going to be measuring myself against a different
goal.
Like, I'll be updating my word count every day, but there's definitely going to be
some days where my daily word count is a lot less than other days.
And I can see myself becoming discouraged by days with lower word counts, which could
lead to more days with lower word counts, and on and on into this dwindling spiral.
On top of all that … I'm going to try to do VEDA?
That is a HORRIBLE idea, I know.
But.
I'm going to do it anyway.
Despite the fact that, as you're watching this, I'm driving down to San Francisco,
and tomorrow I'm going to be driving again.
I'm still going to try to post a vlog every day.
I don't know.
I feel like I haven't done anything SUPER INTENSE in a really long time, and I kind
of miss it.
I like moments of intense overwork, every once in a while, as long as it doesn't become
constant, because that gets unhealthy.
So here's to signing off on a great March and looking forward to an April of intense
work and production that hopefully leads to an even better May.
That's it for today, Rebel.
Subscribe if you haven't already, and wish me luck in April!
It's going to be a hell of a month.
Thank you so much for watching, and I will see you tomorrow.
Maybe?
Byyye!

The Wrong Hire Can Hurt Your Business Badly - Duration: 18:44.
Let's try that again. I was getting
too many notifications all at once and it was distracting so
Best selves hiring process is now over year old when we first started hiring people
We started hiring people who?
Were available people that we knew?
people who
Who we thought would be a right fit?
But it just turned out that that process that we were using that process that we were putting in place it
Wasn't good. It wasn't
We weren't putting the right people in
in the right places and
It hurt our growth, so hiring is a big thing especially when you're growing and scaling a company
We're to a point now where the next thing the only place to get us
To where we want to go is just hire more people so we need to think about how we're going to hire people
how are we going to hire not just people but the best people and
Best self has actually developed
it or curated a
awesome awesome
Awesome team that we absolutely love we have the best in customer service the best designers
the best marketers the best
writers the best
Operations people and we've actually poached most of these people
From other companies they had jobs it would brought them on
because of this process and
And we were able to do it quickly and efficiently without
Pounding our head against the wall
And that's what hiring was to us in the beginning. It was like
I've got hire. Somebody in what's cool
How do I do this what a you know whom can we fit for this role? [who] [do] we need? I don't even know and
It ended up just turning out to be us like I said before
Picking people around us picking people who we thought would be ideal
And then what we found out was when we did that approach
We'd waste time we waste money. We right waste energy
Resources and and we waste our business because we've spent all this time at
a baseline where if we would just hire the right person
All of a sudden the right things would fall into place, and we would start scaling up
so
Enough about why it's important to hire the right people
now let's get into
How we're going to do this so because this is a whiteboard training
I will not have access to the comments
but please please leave comments below because I'm always in turtle in the hustle afterwards and
oh
Absolutely James training for the wrong people is so expensive it it is
you'll you'll spend all this time and money training them getting them up to speed get it giving them all the skills and and
the inner workings of your business
and what makes you guys unique just to find out that they can't implement or aren't implementing to your standards and
And you keep saying hey, what's going on or how come you're not like we're on. We're up on this level
But you're still down here what where's that gap? It's because you got the wrong person
in most cases
so
Because this video is going to be on a whiteboard. I won't be able to see your comments, so please leave comments below
like this video and
and
I will take a pause here and there to come in and see what your comments are
But always even if you're watching this video after its recorded
Drop some comments in because I love talking about it, and I want to hear what questions. You guys have so
Without further ado let me Spin this camera around
[alright], so it's a simple 5-step process
for this and
First and foremost you need to figure out okay? Who do you want? That's that's a giggly. What role will will they do and
in this
when you're figuring out, what role
That person's going to do for your company and what?
tasks and Assignments, or don't do you're going to write an epic job opening and
What this will do this will curate and weed out a majority of people
So for us for best self our company's thought everyone works Rameau everyone's
normally in a
Younger Mindset although, we do have older people in our company
But they just fit they understand the culture they get it and that's what they like, so when ripe job openings
We make it fun
We make it light-hearted, but we also tell them up front who the four Andrews it not for so we've got the people who?
Who aren't a?
Aren't they right fit?
immediately, so if someone looking for an office job, and someone's looking for
for a nine-to-five
We tell them hey hey that's not that's not this position
But we also make it fun. [all] [right]. So maybe you don't want a nine-to-five, but maybe you want to work with a
Cool team that a start up you're going to get your hands dirty you're going to do a lot of things that you have no
No idea what to do, but that's okay all of us are
In that boat you're going to wear many hats
Don't just think we're going to
Sit you down with one simple role that you do over and over again. We're going to ask you to do things that
that aren't really specific for this and in doing so
Well Katherine
and I have done and actually katherine she designed this this fun image actually two of them now because we
Got tired of using the first one
But it's like Katherine and I standing next to one another and a stick figure with his arm over made
And it's like this could be you it just shows a little
Different aspect than what people are normally used to when reading job openings, so whether you're looking for a ceo low
Which should be one of your first hires?
If you're looking [for] a more person or customer service person put it in there like hey
this could be you and just make it fun and
in doing so we got the people who are looking for that specific position and
Tory will weed out people who are not geared towards that and you'll also attract the right people
so
This will take a big majority of your time to craft the right one don't just pumps up and out because you want
this is the face of your company if you're going to attract people really put the time and energy into it and
Catherine and I would actually spend hours and hours writing going back and forth between hey
Does this look good all right? And then we we constantly edit it and feed it back back and forth to one another until
It was up to our standards
So after that's written
You're going to what you want to do. Here's the worst part is now you're going to get all these applicants
Are you going to read resumes and do this [and] that no?
that's not how you do this you want to automate this system, and you wanted to be automatically to vet and
Quickly decipher who's who Convolve instructions and who can't?
Now most of this is from the book who and if you're only going to read one book on higher
And I highly recommend reading that who by Jeffrey Smart ugly business
Don't quote me on that
and
also, this is another system that we so most of [the] came from who but we also Sort of match this together with
with Noah Kagan's hiring process
so it's sort of like a blend between the two that Catherine are like alright this fits off this list or a company and
That's why I'm providing it to you
So what is this automated betting system, so in this job opening? You're going to have instructions
You're going to [get] the person to call to action
email jobs at
Desafio with
subject Line x y and z and
So the body of the email include links to your Facebook and link it for example
so those are the instructions
so what happens when someone emails jobs at bet Cellco with the subject line that it was said in the
instructions, but
Doesn't have the links to their Facebook or linkedin profile in their body they go to the trash
So this whole process is
is A
two-pronged approach so number one is
Setting up the email back end to automatically filter
the responses that come in that don't meet the instructions and dump them into the trash and
Then if they do meet the requirements it to send ache and auto response
so
this won't just a
Gmail
automation
Which is the delete?
or canned responses
so if they don't meet the requirements
Mating send an email to [Java] vessel with the correct
subject line
Or the correct text or url in the body if they don't it gets deleted, but if they do
They get a canned response now. What does this canned response?
say this canned response gives them a
Google form
form
Url in
the email
That says hey. Thank you for applying. We love to find out more about you, and if you're a right fit for our company
Take 15 to 30 minutes to fill out this Google form
And tell us a little bit more about yourself
Now what this does
When they go to that google for its intensive its hey, how would you solve this problem? How would you do this?
Tell me more about that
it's very detailed it open-ended because
What you're going to do is you're you don't want to have a drop down and give them multiple choice answers
You don't want to them to rate stuff on a one to ten scale that that really doesn't determine
At face value what when you're glancing at the responses who you're going to pick
So what this does number one it has a barrier to you so far
You haven't done anything except write the email and if you're savvy enough, you just have a va that set up this
Automated process and if you don't have a va just do it yourself a little take 20 minutes of your time
So maybe you spent an hour in 20 minutes, and now we're crafting this this epic
job opening and 20 minutes putting together this and
Now you keep you keep yourself away from all the app applicants coming in
So this Google form it's all going to be open-ended questions. How would you do [this] write this out?
How would you promote x Y&Z tell us about a problem that you that you overcame?
stuff like that if you need if you need examples
I'm sure we can send some or just jump into
Our hiring process that we're doing right now for a marketing person
This is that's the reason why I feel like this
And you can just reverse engineer it if you want, so
what what they'll do is, they'll fill that out and
Then now that you have all these responses in pretty much a google spreadsheet. You'll export all the answers into a google spreadsheet
You'll read those answers now. So now you haven't you haven't even talked to anybody yet
But now you're reading all the answers seeing how to respond to every question, and you'll wait those
answers on a one-to-five scale
so you'll just add a separate column next to the answer and the response and
Rate it on a one to five five being the best
one beer and
And you will go through every answer
Then what you'll do is, you'll sort and categorize their answers total them up and now you can pick your top three
pick top three
so say you have a list of
25
applicants
So far you haven't talked to any of them
But you're already here on the top three that you may choose based on the responses
And it was a very simple system. That was in place now now after [that]. I'm going to stop here
I'm going to come around to the other side of the camera to see if you guys have any questions
All right king says ah yeah James who?
James had a question about the book
Called who all right? So I'm going to keep going
There's nobody there's a couple of you watching right now with not many people have questions
[all] [right], so after you pick the top three
You'll set up a 15 minute. Call you or whoever their direct report is now now where we are with best self
I don't even set up this 15 min a call this goes to someone
My assistant her name's guess it were hired a marketing person
She because she will be this person's direct report and Jess is now my direct report
So we create the buffer space
but if you're just starting out
You'll have a 15 minute hold each now why do you do a 15 minute call instead of diving right into an interview?
The reason you do this is because you can eat when you're talking to someone you can see if literal
responses match up to their personality and
What you're trying to get here to see if they're a good cultural fit to see if there are?
If they're you'll know
from their dialogue from their language inning from
from how how they craft their responses and just talk casually to you if if
They have what it takes now from now you may bring all three of those people to the next round
But at least you talk to them first, and you know what you're getting yourself into if you talk to someone
You're like whoa. No way. I don't know how this guy got got to be top three
But I'm glad my time it was only 15 minutes that looks. That's what this is geared towards
Now last but not least this is this is the mother lode
This is going to be a long haul and this call for this person
Once you get down to this process after they go through the 15 minute call then they do
Maybe it an hour to two hours sometimes three hours
depending on
Depending on how how in-depth you want to get every day?
But what you're doing on this cold is you are digging in and deep as possible?
starting from the beginning
Tell me about great school. Tell me about [growing] up. Tell me who your friends were
Tell me about high [school]. Did you play any sports?
tell me about your girlfriend's your best friends your
Boyfriend's tell me about your parents. How many sisters and brothers?
Do you have if any then tell me about college? Did you go to college? Did you drop out?
Why did you drop out below the love and what you're going to do is you're going to find patterns that are coming up?
whether they play sport and drop that played sports and dropped out whether they join clubs whether they
participated in in
Anything and everything why they chose those extra curricular activities?
someone so forth and then really find out if that person is a right fit for you and your company and
a right fit to bring on to your team and
and this is where
the main Assessment
And then you and your team after once you'll have a discussion. Oh, well. I really like this person
I really like that person, but you know what so and so just really outshined everybody else
And I think we should bring them on and then you go to negotiating the salary and so on and so forth
but this is the five step process from
From what how to really start getting people right from the beginning all the way to make them
making them a higher and this is the process we use and
We use it today
We love it because we spent so much time bringing in or boarding people like I said in the beginning of this video
that that we really wanted something in place, and this is working really well for us right now and
I hope you guys can implement it into your business again if you have any questions about this video
Please drop it in the comments. Let me know if you like this if you got some value out of it and
Yes, thanks, everyone

Keywords - How To Spy on Websites Meta Keywords for Keyword Discovery - Duration: 5:37.
Hi there guys, I get people asking me
all the time how I find my keywords now yes
I do head on over to the Google Keyword tool,
thats always gotta be there and you've gotta find out what people are paying for
however, let's look at it this way. I've got three
email marketing services that I'm gonna share with you today okay, Depixion
we've got MailChimp and
the other email marketing company
is Aweber, so if I was to be
setting up campaign that wanted to
be an affiliate
for one of these services, I'm not sayin
any particular one is is better or worse than the other because I'm not getting
into that
in this video this video is more
about the keywords for email marketing services, now
let's say that Aweber is the company that we're gonna be the affiliate for
and and this is how we want to make money
okay now lets choose Aweber
on its own, then two of its competitors in the email marketing solutions
business
so there we Depixion and MailChimp. So what you wanna do
is right click: Now these guys spend
thousands of pounds in testing and tracking
everything that they do and they're not gonna use keywords
that aren't converting so we're taking
keywords that a lot of marketers are using
scrappin those and find out what the companies are actually
using as their keywords, in effect the "money keywords",
okay so what you want to do is go onto the,
the main page you wanna have a look at, right click
and go to something called "view page source"
okay that's going to open up
all this what looks like gobbledygook but it's not it's good
meta-data and what you're looking for here
is keywords, so depixion.email
is targeting email marketing, automation marketing,
free account, free email marketing,
and email suite, but even the words like automation,
is gonna be email marketing automation, email marketing free account,
email marketing email suite,
that's, that's how their keywords are working for this.
So what we'll look at next
is MailChimp, so head on over to MailChimp here and again
do your right-click
and "view page source" and lovely
lovely code here the background of their website
and what we're looking for is keywords okay
so this is a great example of
an email marketing company using keywords
like each word is separate, now
these aren't exactly the ones we're gonna be targeting, but it really gives
you a good idea of what you can
so email marketing resources, email marketing
HTML newsletters, email marketing free,
oh, sorry, email marketing fr ee account,
so this is a really good idea to have a look
and put on the back burner for now, but we'll see how
Aweber deals with their keywords. So what we'll do now is head on over to
Aweber and see what their keywords
that they're targeting and see if we can get any information from there
now this is a little bit more difficult to have a look through
but just have a have a quick look through and you'll find
keywords just here okay
but that's a lovely example other the background
some of the websites, now this is very interested
they are targeting email marketing, auto responders,
and email newsletters. So for one of the biggest players in the game
they are telling the search engines that they are only, they only have keywords for
only three things, so they are super super targeted
and I think Aweber know
that there the money keywords: and that's what they using
to to market their email marketing services
so there you have it guys
we've had a look at finding keywords
for email marketing services, now
one is who we were actually gonna use as are affiliate
or we would be the affiliate for okay
we've used two free services
so free email marketing services by
MailChimp and a new player
that I've just found is Depixion.email
so if you just have a look at Depixion email
in a Google search this all come up as well I
but what we were pretty much saying today
was about finding good keywords
that are money keywords so
happy days, I hope this helps and
go out and find some more keywords with the "view source", cheers guys :)
