Mike Filsaime
First reviewed Oct 2009
One of my regulars wrote to me regarding an Adwords "webinar" by Mike Filsaime. His question was...
"I know this guy is a very "Big noise" and worth loads of mulla, BUT..... when I get stuff like this I don't have a friggin' clue whether it's of any use - or whether by hitting the delete button I am effectively chuckin' away the crown jewels."
The short answer to the question is that Mike Filsaime is not some fly-by-night or con-artist. He's the real deal and worth listening to. He started off as a big shot car dealer in the USA. He then moved into the arena of marketing and advertising. He specialises in the latest list building and traffic generation techniques, and certainly knows his onions.
His website claims that he spoke at over 75 Marketing conferences in 2 years, across the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and Malaysia. Which makes him sound more like a touring rock act. All in all then, a person who has made his mark.
However, if you're considering any type of traffic system or web-marketing strategy, a word of caution. You can have all the Adwords and other list building strategies in the world... but you still need something to sell, a website, newsletter or business to which you can apply these strategies. Sometimes people get sucked into the latest newfangled web-marketing strategies without actually having a core business to promote.
As Mike Filsaime says: "Internet Marketing is really just about how to raise awareness for your product, and make your name known throughout the world."
