Rich Schefren’s ‘The Final Chapter Of The Internet Business Manifesto’

Rich has just released the final chapter in his trilogy that makes up the complete Internet Business Manifesto. You can download the Final Chapter for free from this link:

The Final Chapter - Rich SchefrenStrategicProfits.com/finalchapter

Here is the background story for those who have no idea what the manifesto is…

The Internet Business Manifesto

I recently raved about two e-books by Rich Schefren, an Internet business coach who seemed to have every well known Internet business expert listed as a client. Behind the scenes Rich had managed to place himself as the coach of the gurus, an enviable position to be in, which gave him the platform to exponentially expand his coaching business with an Internet marketing launch. In a process that lasted mere weeks Rich sold 3.5 million worth of coaching and defined himself as one of the best in the field of Internet business strategy.

Did I mention I also signed up for his coaching program? Yep, I’m forking over $400 US a month in his twelve month business growth program and so far I’m pleased with how things are going. Rich knows his stuff.

Besides the credibility Rich has established thanks to his current client list, there really were two very specific reasons why Rich’s launch was so successful. His two books, The Internet Business Manifesto and The Missing Chapter were seminal pieces that hit the nail on the head regarding a lot of the problems Internet business folk face.

Quite frankly, if it wasn’t for how well Rich described my situation in his two books, in particular what he wrote about in the missing chapter - and how much I agreed with his solutions to my problems (outsourcing/out-tasking, systems, strategies and tactics) - I would not have joined his program. His books convinced me this was the guy to help me move past my current situation of Internet business self employment to actually owning a profitable business that is not dependent on me.

If you don’t have the first two books I suggest you read them now. You can find the links in my article here or by going to Rich’s blog, StrategicProfits.com.

Once again, you can download the Final Chapter for free from this link:

Note that because I am now part of Rich’s coaching program I was provided with an affiliate link for the third free e-book in the trilogy. This last book is part of a new launch (I bet you wouldn’t have guessed that!), but I’m not entirely what the launch is for yet because it has a lot to do with a company called Agora (more on this later).

However, even if I was not an affiliate this time I’d recommend the book because it’s just so darn interesting and relevant for anyone interested in Internet business and online marketing. It has a few typos in its current form (just like my blog articles :) ), but don’t let that distract you from the content - it’s thought provoking stuff.

Also - make sure you read page 16 closely as you will see my name gets a mention! I can’t tell you how happy I was to see my name listed along with many top experts - given that there will probably be about 30,000 or so people reading the final chapter I can’t thank Rich enough for the exposure he’s provided for me.

Why Rich Is Worth Listening To

Rich interacts with many people who do what I do and what you probably do or want to do if you are a regular reader of my blog. He has the personal phone number for a bunch of the top experts in the industry, people like Mike Filsaime, John Carlton, Jeff Walker, Gary Ambrose and Brad Fallon. But there is one big reason why Rich is clued-in on a different level to all the others - he’s in touch with the COMPANIES who do Internet marketing as a business.

One company in particular, Agora Publishing, Rich has partnered with. Have you ever heard of Agora before? No? Me neither, not until Rich started referring to them on a regular basis. I don’t know much about Agora other than the fact that Rich has partnered with them and that they do $270 million selling information products online. Yes, that is $270 MILLION.

Agora Publishing

Agora is not an “Internet business guru” although based on their sales volume there are certainly some smart people working for them. There is no expert acting as the “face” of the business and the marketing efforts do not focus on personal branding the expertize of one individual or we would know about them already.

This is a company that enters into markets online with a front-end/back-end strategy that can be applied to almost any marketplace. They don’t specialize in selling Internet marketing products to Internet marketers like so many of the Internet marketing gurus do, they DO Internet marketing to sell products in many niches. That is how you set up a multi-million dollar business - create a system and then apply it to all the gaps in the marketplace online.

I initially went to an old Agora website that is, quite frankly, ugly, but if you go to the new one you will see it’s a bit spiffier, albeit they use a flash splash page (that’s a no-no in my book). Looking deeper into the site you will see that health, travel and finance seems to be their areas of expertize and they use a newsletter+book format. Even though Agora itself isn’t branded as an expert, they do appear to use experts and personal branding for each niche they operate in - which makes perfect sense of course - but this is the fist instance I have seen of a company being in charge of it all rather than an individual.

I believe what sets Rich apart from the rest is his access to what goes on at Agora, and that is one of the reasons why I will continue to listen to him. I don’t know what his exact plans are for his partnership with Agora but I do know something is in the works and no doubt we will all hear about it soon.

I am eager to learn more about how Agora markets online. Based on the tidbits of info Rich has dropped in his coaching calls I like what I hear - they have already sparked a few ideas for my own sales funnel process for the upcoming Blog Traffic School.

For the time being we can enjoy the final chapter of Rich’s manifesto.

I agree. Lots of good stuff in there. It’s practically a product itself.

I had never heard of agora before, but I have heard of Michael Masterson. I read one of his books a couple of years ago and liked it quite a bit. I was surprised to see his name come up in “The Final Chapter,” but not too surprised to hear he was one of the main reasons for Agora’s success.

Hey Yaro - congratulations on appearing on page 16! I’m sure it’s the start of many accolades to come. I haven’t yet read the whole thing, but I look forward to doing so if it’s up to Rich’s usual high quality. Hope Canada’s treating you well! Will

[…] I also wrote a few blog articles about the books, one on the manifesto and missing chapter and one on the final chapter. […]
