REGISTER HERE!
The event is free and open to ANYONE who has an interest in making money online. In the world of online marketing there simply is not a recession - we were recently in DC at Yanik’s event and everyone we know is doing very, very, very well. The field is still wide open to anyone with a bit of creativity, the ability to learn, and a desire to escape the rat race.
June’s special guest was - Jeff ”Herschey” Schwerdt
Jeff “Herschey” Schwerdt is only 31 years old, but he thought he’d be dead by now…or still flying F-16 Fighter Jets with the US Air Force!
We are glad he’s not dead because he flew in from Phoenix, Arizona to share with you what he discovered after a disabling injury left him unable to continue his lifelong dream of flying fighter jets… This discovery has created massive wealth for himself and his clients using the Holy Grail of internet marketing.
Zero Investment… Massive Results… FAST!
He has a fast and powerful method to bring in cash whether you are a beginner with no list or product of your own. You see after 987 hours of flight time in one of the fastest jets in the world, SLOW WAS NOT APPEALING. So while he was laying in bed recovering from his flying-related medical issues, he found a fast way to make massive amounts of cash online!
Jeff talked to us about how he took the only weapons at his disposal (a Beat Up Laptop And A $279 Camera) and within 3 weeks was not exactly getting rich… BUT he more than doubled his results and made $2,650.
Within 6 months he got to the point where he made $13,532 in 3 weeks! And his strategy gave him the ability to continue doing that consistently. It wasn’t much longer before he got to the point where he decided to start sharing his
methods (now called Quick Video Marketing) to others and saw that this could work for virtually anyone in business!
May’s special guest was - Craig Perrine

Craig Perrine (Austin, Texas) is an Internet Marketing strategist and the co-author of the Best Seller ‘Inspired Marketing’ (Wiley, 2008) with Dr. Joe Vitale.
He started in offline direct marketing in the mid 1990s and has helped generate millions in sales for companies large and small from diverse industries.
His first successful six figure info product business was in the stock market niche in 1993 and was a runaway success after years of struggling.
After years running his own info product business, Craig jumped with both feet into the Dot Com mania in the late nineties in search of massive stock option payday.
While he did generate millions in sales with those companies he worked with, none of them turned out to live up to expectations of going public and in fact the last one laid everyone off abruptly, including Craig.
Somewhat wiser from the experience, in 2001 Craig went back into direct marketing, this time with a focus on the Internet using the power of email marketing.
His first client generated over $610,000 in sales from a single promotion to a small email list and after several such successes, Craig chose to focus exclusively on creating his own internet businesses.
In 2003 he got his first major online success when he partnered with Kevin Wilke and Matt Gill and NitroMarketing.com out of Dallas and launched several projects together that generated sales approaching a million dollars.
During that time with Nitro, Craig learned how to build huge lists, perfected email copywriting tactics, and learned what mistakes beginning marketers made when using email. In the pivotal time period around 2004 when the CanSpam law went into effect, Craig perfected strategies to build solid relationships with permission based subscriber lists and created courses and coaching programs to help teach marketers how to profit using the power of email effectively.
In 2005 Craig became known as the ‘Maverick Marketer’ and launched MaverickMarketer.com and became a frequent speaker at leading Internet marketing seminars. He is also featured in many other best-selling online marketing books and courses.
Today Craig speaks on Inspired Marketing, has several ongoing joint venture projects and new products launching in the coming months.
April’s special guest was - John Alanis
John Alanis has been in direct and information marketing for 12 years. He started out in the steel art business in 1995, got into information marketing in 1996 via the Jeff Paul/Dan Kennedy System, and he worked with Michael Kimble of Group M Marketing for 7 yrs.
John started his current information marketing business in May of 2004, teaching men how to get women to approach them first for a date, no matter their looks age or income. He started this business with no merchant account, no list, no joint venture partners, and no money invested, just the knowledge in his own head and the unique selling proposition. In three months he was at $15K a month, 8 months at $40K a month, then $100K a month 11 months later where he’s more or less stayed.
John uses all forms of media in his business- direct mail, magazine ads, email, social media, ppc, banners, articles, seo,
online video, publicity and even occasional radio ads. He writes all his own copy, and is well known for sending two
emails a day to his list, based around an “attractive character” he’s dubbed the King of Let ‘em Come to You.
John’s primary website is www.WomenApproachYou.com
John is currently a member of Dan Kennedy’s Platinum Inner Circle & a prior speaker at Yanik Silver’s Underground
Marketing event.

ABOUT The Austin Internet Marketing Entrepreneur Network (AIMEN)
You are welcome to join us at our networking parties if you are an internet entrepreneur, are a friend or aspire to be one.
Austin has so many Internet Marketing superstars that I decided to coordinate a good excuse to get together and network at least once a month.
These events are casual, fun & informal. There are lots of opportunities to mingle, get to know each other & share your businesses’ opportunities and/or needs with fellow internet marketers.
I also invite internet marketers from Dallas, Houston and San Antonio… and from ALL OVER the world. Feel free to pass this website and information along to anyone you know who may be interested in joining us.
Unless notified in advance, our parties will happen the 2nd Tuesday of each month from 7 to 9:30pm at Six Lounge in Austin, TX at the southwest corner of 4th and Colorado Streets. So bring your appetite, your thirst and let’s have a good time, make some money, making new friends & great connections.
If you have any particularly good ideas, suggestions or thoughts about how to make these events more profitable, compelling and just plain cool, feel free to contact me: mrdavegonzalez [at] gmail dot com. I welcome your ideas.
