You will find we have examined all 17 businesses in that report, here at SowPub over the last two decades. We had great respect for Jim. When he passed, it was a sad moment for us.

Like many of the ideas in the George Haylings, many of those 17 are dated and not possible to do today. I did very well with Jim when he came online and started his affiliate efforts, had a great catalog of information products.

Also, I think all the ideas of Haylings and Jim Straw have been covered in one of Dien Rice's newsletter. I know he had over 117 ideas in his books.

We had a private study group for the Jim Straw products a long time ago here too.

He is missed and you've found some gold if applied.

Gordon

Thanks Gordon.

Jim said, if he were starting out today, he would focus on selling other's content and spend less time CREATING his own. He quickly adapted to affiliate marketing, and because of his copy writing skill, became a master at offers of the programs he chose to affiliate with. I think that is some pretty good food for thought.

It is the most started of Internet Marketing programs, but due to the lack of marketing skill, one of the lowest paying too. But for those who can learn to convert traffic, it is a gold mine.

PS I think Jim, maybe, was involved in more businesses than any other Entrepreneur I knew. Gifted and generous man.

Wow. Awesome point of view.

In fact I just came across to this video from him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOzCMKLCY9Q

And it makes all the sense.

Thanks Gordon.

Hi Glenn,

Thank you - the Chef's hats arrived today.

Please give me a clue on what I should do with them. If not, I will be using them when I go to a friend's house to do some cooking with her.

Also I have been listening to the Rasputin audio book. I am chapter 3 and a couple of times almost spit out my tea laughing so hard.

Again thank you for the hats.

Cheers,

Jock
