Are you an Internet Marketer?

Are you happy with your adsense earnings?

Need some inspiration?

How about:

Shoemoney “Skills to pay the bills”

In case you have difficulty reading the check, it’s issued by Google and is an adsense check for the amount of $132,994.97 issued in the month of September 2005.

Shoemoney (aka Jeremy Schoemaker) helpfully points out:

This was the bigest paper check I have ever received. It was way back in August of 2005 and since I have moved to wire transfers so dont look for anything bigger from me.

Inspired?

Head down to Shoemoney’s blog. He’s 100% uncensored in talking about his strategies and results, documenting the ups AND the downs. I especially like a recent post: Finding Your Own Groove.

What’re we to take from this?

Work hard. Work fast. Work smart. You’ll get results.

It won’t take one month, but even 8 months is very decent.

Make it a point to check out the top bloggers every day. Go through every post.

Take notes. Take action.

Even better than that. Take up the opportunity to pick Shoemoney’s brains and the brains of:

• Search Engine Optimization guru Aaron Wall
• Internet consultant and author Dave Tailor
• Forum expert Lee Dodd

Here’s the lineup for Elite Retreat:

Imagine a 30-person mastermind group.

75% personal discussions. 25% lectures.

That format is just about perfect as Dave Taylor says “I believe that the most valuable hours of a conference are after hours rather than during the lectures.” in his post Are you a passive listener or an active participant?

Elite Retreat project manager Andrea Schoemaker says: “Registration opens on November 1st and will be limited availability of 30 participants…This event is likely to sell out fast so don’t delay in your registration.”

Registration, incidentally, is by application. Do note that “Attendees will be chosen by an application only process.”

[Note: If you go for the conference and you ask Shoemoney what an RSS feed is, I won’t be responsible for the consequences. See “Internet Marketing newbies a nuisance?“]

There will be an incentive to early registration for Elite Retreat .
