7 Things to Expect in the Online Wealth Breakthrough Seminar:
This March and April, Jomar Hilario the pinoy Internet M'arke'ting Guru will be holding a Online Wealth Breakthrough Seminar. Here's what you can expect to gain from it:
1. How do internet marketers connect the dots between this program and that program and that program? Which program does what and goes first? Which comes next?
2. How to do - step by step - to sell in Facebook or email - in a way that works?
3. How does affiliate marketing really work? What's the secret? How come most people only make so little? They have sales but less than $50!
4. What's required -as a minimum - to succeed in online marketing?
5. What stops most people from earning online using this knowledge?
6. How people really make money online?
7. What are the websites you need to know to keep up to date in online marketing?
So to bridge the gap between your skills (you already know how to blog for example) and your goals (but where's your online income?), attend the Online Wealth Breakthrough Seminar on March 19 in Manila and April 3 in Cebu.

EARN FROM THE INTERNET
Do you want to learn how to create money online?
There will be a Cebu Internet Marketing Workshop on August 14-15.
and a Manila Internet Marketing Workshop on September 3-4.
These are hands-on workshops; you don't just sit there, you get
to use the computer and instantly apply your learnings!.
Here's some feedback from previous attendees:
"At first, I was very hesitant to take the workshop. Jomar made
everything very easy to understand. You donít need to be a tech
savvy person to learn Internet Marketing from the workshop.
The Hands-on or one pc/person makes it impossible for the
attendees not to understand everything. I already feel that I
will succeed in internet marketing.
It ís not just internet marketing that you will learn but also
confidence and motivation in achieving your goals in life.
I think the benefit exceeds the price of the workshop."
- John M.
"The workshop was an eye-opener for me on the tremendous
power of the internet. Now I explore all possibilities on how
to earn and market my products. Internet Marketing enhances
my skills and my creative mind to contribute to the growing
community."- Louie I.
"Sa First day pa lang ng workshop, ramdam ko na agad and
in my mind saying (2 million monthly income, possible, yeees!
I'm gonna get you!). If you follow Jomar's guidelines, it's as
easy as ABC."- Ronnie C.

How To Put Notes in Evernotes
Why is life so complicated? Because we make it so, that's why! But I don't want to get into that right now.
What I want to get into is a way for us to simplify things.
Do you ever notice how, as our lives become more complex, we tend to forget things? And we try to solve this problem by having a desktop and a laptop at the office, a laptop at home, a mobile phone. All of these equipment and gadgets full of schedulers and notes. Not to mention the countless post-its that you stick everywhere. No wonder we're confused. And no wonder we keep on forgetting things.
Studying EVERNOTE is like opening a gift - a wonderful gift. It's full of surprises. And it's full of features that can help simplify your hectic lifestyle. Go ahead and open my gift to you. Go over the tutorial and be surprised yourself. (Click here for the video version)

How To Get Started with Skype
Okay - so, I'm a comfort-zone-person. I find something I like, something that fits my needs to a "T", and I'll probably stay with it forever.
I started using Yahoo Messenger almost 6 years ago - with dial-up connection- yes! (And don't ask me how I got started. I'm not gonna tell.) I got into the YM thing so much I sometimes wake up to someone else's snoring at the other end. (I'm still not going to tell.)
Years later, everybody seems to have switched to Skype. I kept hanging on to my YM. I have the latest version, anyway. (Excuses! Excuses!) Except there's no one to YM with. Not anymore. Even the kids in my family are using Skype. When they see me using the YM, they think I'm from another world.
It's time to learn something different. (I was about to say 'new'. Which is absolutely not true since Skype is on it's nth version already!) I've been staring far too long at the 'offline status' of friends in my YM.
Finally, I have reached the letting-go stage. Well, partly. Am keeping my YM. I just can't bring myself to delete it from my system. But I have downloaded Skype, spent some time getting familiar with it and came up with this tutorial. I'm not even sure someone will still be interested to go through this quick lesson. It's so basic I'm almost embarrassed to share it.
Here it is, anyway - for those who are in the process of finding something new. It's not necessarily something better. But you might have better chances of getting connected as more people are using Skype nowadays. As for me, the kids will stop looking at me with dismay. And I will stop feeling, well, ancient. Don't you feel ever feel outdated when you refuse to go out of a comfort zone?
And here's something that I like about Skype - I can monitor my Facebook Newsfeed while logged-in to Skype. I don't think i can do that with YM. So, it seems, it's goodbye YM, hello Skype! (Click here for video version)

How To Get Started with Spybot-Search & Destroy
If only for this, whatever I paid Jomar Hilario for the VA training is well worth it. (Check out Jomar Hilario's downloadable seminar and you won't need to leave the comforts of your home to learn how to do these turorials)
For years, I have lived with Norton, AVG, Avast - all the while HOPING that my computer (and my files) will always be 'safe'. I said hoping because it really never turned out that way. Somehow some malicious spyware or malware will sneak into the system. And your computer will never be the same again.
Enter Spybot-Search & Destroy! This is what I call living up to it's name. How it searches! And How it destroys! There's probably something better out there. Who cares? I'm perfectly happy with the way Spybot attacks these malicious, sneaky enemies that goes into my laptop.
For weeks, I've been on the internet 20/6. (Come on! Don't tell me you don't get it - I'm not a 7-Eleven branch. Nor am I a call center!) I've been downloading this, downloading that. And my laptop's still running at top speed.
If you don't have Spybot yet, I'm urging you to download it. Watch this tutorial and do the searching and destroying yourself - with Spybot, of course! Click here for the video version.

How To Create Invoices with Express Invoice
If you attended the VA Seminar of Jomar Hilario, you would know that one of the challenges of being a VA is getting payments. I don't know about you! Me? I don't feel very enthusiastic about following-up for money that is due me.
But that's part of the reality of being a VA! Unless you're doing it all for free? Far from it, right?
What then? You need to get paid. Unfortunately, your client seems to have selective amnesia. There must be a way to bill your clients in a professional manner.
The VA seminar mentioned something about Intuit, a software that can send invoices to VA clients.
I didn't even bother to look into this since it's not free anymore.
Once again I found myself doing some research (apparently, a skill that all VAs should have). So now I'm ready to share another 'How-To'. My 7th, if I'm not mistaken. It's a quick tutorial on how to create invoices using Express Invoice.
I suggest you try Express Invoice. It's free. You can work offline and create quotations, sales orders and invoices. Exactly what we're looking for. Everything you create can be recorded including payments made. The beauty of it all is that Express Invoice will automatically send invoices for accounts with unpaid balances. Nice, isn't it?
So, spend a few minutes viewing this tutorial and explore the software later on. It's got other features that I'm sure all VAs will find useful. You can watch the Photo Flash version, if you like.

How To Use Google Calendar
I'm not quite sure why I chose Google Calendar. Maybe I was curious. Or maybe I was on the lookout for a new tool - simpler (?) but more exciting. A tool that will work best for people with several things going on all at the same time -
- personal schedules, business meetings, daily tasks, monthly events - you name it.
I think I'm going to like Google Calendar. I like color-coding things, organizing things in my mind just by looking at the colors. See what it can do by navigating through this tutorial - just might work for you, too. (If you want the video, click here)

How To Create Forms Using Google Docs
I kept asking "why" while doing this tutorial. I've prepared so many forms - HR forms, training surveys, workshop evaluations, survey forms - all sorts. Why is it that I've discovered this wonderful tool just now? Could have made my work life a lot easier!
However,on hindsight, it's probably best. It's like learning how to drive. If you started with the stick shift and then moved to an automatic car, it's very easy to drive both. But if you learned how to drive with an automatic car, odds are ten to 1, you'd never learn to go manual.
Hopefully, I can come up with better forms (and electronic at that) with Google Docs.
Check out the tutorial now. (Click here for video)

How to Prepare Presentations with Google Docs
I remember working for a boss who demanded one-page documents only. No matter how complicated the topic was. Even if it was a documentation of a 1-day meeting. That was part of his dream to go paperless.
I remember getting migraines and stomach upsets in my attempts to deliver the one-pagers. Sometimes I would cheat. Using legal paper size instead of A4 meant more texts. Using size 8 fonts instead of 12 meant the same thing. I got away with them on rare occasions when my boss was too busy to take notice. When he did notice (because he needed a magnifying glass to read my report) he would smile and shake his head as if to say - "Shame on you".
And I remember telling myself - "shame on me." A hundred words, more or less, and I have to cheat? I can do better than that. And I did do better. Without cheating. It was indeed a lesson on working within boundaries -something that proved to be more challenging than having all the freedom to do what I want to do.
Preparing presentations with Google Docs was another opportunity to apply that valuable lesson. There was so much information to share. My first draft was 10,000kb - and I couldn't upload to Scribd.com. I must have revised this tutorial 20x!
I'm now ready to post this tutorial. Just like the one-pagers, I hope I was able to capture the most important information -a much shorter version- but a concise presentation.
Hope you'll learn the basics...

How To Create Blogs With Blogger.com
I started blogging some time 2010. If you visit my blog I Go To Work In My Pajamas you'll know what (or who) got me into this.
My original intention was, of course, to earn on line. That has not happened. Not yet. That's not possible when you keep on hopping from one meeting to another. Dealing with people problems almost every working moment you have. Training left and right.
In between those workshops, I blog whenever I can. Money seems to have taken a backseat. I have come to like blogging for 2 reasons. I get to learn while searching around for topics and I get to share what I've learned. There are people who actually appreciate the posts. That's more than enough reason for me to keep on signing in to blogger.com.
I know it may sound complicated - this idea of blogging and posting. It's actually quite easy. To help the newbies, I'm sharing the video I've prepared on how to get started with Blogger.com. Click here for the video version.
You can learn how to blog, too. And end passive income. In US Dollars. Check out the different workshops of Jomar Hilario:
Found it useful? Any suggestions? I would love to hear from you. Please leave your comments.
BTW, I wasn't in the mood for an actual workshop so I downloaded the VA Training - click here

HOW TO USE PHOTO FLASH MAKER
I was eager to start on my VA assignments. I'm no masochist. Designing 10 "How-to's" would mean sleepless nights and missed TV shows - that much I know. But I can't wait to get started and learn new internet tools.
Surprise! Surprise! My first lesson had nothing to do with technology. It's all about...."finding ways". (Isn't that a tag line of a unibank?)
Anyway, to get started, I decided to brush up on the Movie Maker first. That way, I can immediately convert my slides into a video tutorial once I'm done with them. That shouldn't be hard considering I've had a long standing affair with this Microsoft program.
For some reason, my Movie Maker won't cooperate. After several frustrating attempts I decided to break-up with Movie Maker. I figured - there are "other fishes in the ocean". I just need to go fishing - the worldwide web my ocean. And the 'search button' my 'hook, line and sinker'
Finally, I got my precious catch of the day. Oh, I'm sure techy fishermen out there can get a 'better catch'. I'm quite happy with mine. It's free. I can prepare my videos offline. And it works. If you're going to say there's a "larger, better fish", zip it for now. Let me 'rest on my laurels' for a while.
Watch the tutorial first- then you're welcome to leave comments. There's nothing wrong with getting better at fishing. (For the video version, click here)

I've Always Wanted to be a 'Gimper'
This post was not a post. Originally. I got carried away writing about myself and this is how my 'About Me' looked like...
It would be embarrassing to have a mile-long description of myself on that page! If I were you, I wouldn't even bother to read it. But I hope you would continue reading this one. So you can get to know more about me-
I'M IN TRAINING. But I'll avoid speaking in public- if i can. I love the design portion though. I get so fired-up with nothing but the topic to start with. I have prepared thousands of slides. But what I love doing most are the integrations - those closing summaries you deliver at the end of a workshop or training to wrap it all together. It's challenging to be able to put a 1-day, 2-day session into a 15-minute presentation. And these are prepared right where the action is - while sessions are going on. I usually get these reactions...
I HAVE NO FORMAL TRAINING IN DECORATING. But i do that well. Not according to me. But judged by the people who visit my place of residence. Give me an empty space and I'll convert that into a homey, comfy, budget-friendly place. I love organizing - at work and at home.
I DON'T LIKE CROWDS. But I love organizing events. End to end. From conceptualizing to the actual implementation. My aim? An event to remember. Participants to this 3-day Summer Camp (with 500 pax) couldn't stop talking about it.
I'M A WHIRLWIND. I walk fast. I talk fast. I work fast. I want results fast. But i take it slow when I'm starting a project. I believe in "first things first". The key is in the planning.
I'M NOT TOO KEEN ON TRADITION - THINGS THAT ARE CONVENTIONAL. But I can do policies & procedures - for any industry! I've prepared lots of manuals. And I wouldn't stop with the manuals. I can convert them into orientation programs.
So, I think in so many ways, God has answered my prayer. I've always wanted to be a gimper. And I'm getting to be a real one. I guess, in the VA world, I can be a Concierge. I will bend over backwards so I can do just about anything. NOT because I'm good. But because I have a passion, a fire that cannot be put out - because it's inspired by GOD.

getting started...one BIG, HUGE challenge!
Got the VA training video on 23 January 2011. Because of prior commitments, I viewed it once and vowed to go over it as soon as I can find the time.
Probably viewed it 10x since 2nd week of February. Need to do this right. But first, I need to start. And I couldn't find a way to begin.
Something was wrong. I was home. At my place, right here....
I've freed myself of other commitments. But for some reason, I couldn't get started. The VA lessons just went completely over my head. The last consultancy project I completed stressed me out. Much more than I would admit.
What do you do when you're stressed? Me? I stop. I empty my mind. And I pray. I pray until I feel myself relaxing, my mind refreshed. And i knew just the place where I can do just that - a place where I can watch my very own sunset...like this one....
Well, that's not 'my very own sunset'. That's the mother sunset of 'my very own sunset'. That's a sunset by the lake. And the river that ends on that lake is the same river that I can see right outside my bedroom window. From another home. My mom's home. The place where I grew up. The place where, I was certain, I can work in peace.
And I was right. Been here for a couple of days. Or was it three? What does it matter? What matters is I'm over the difficult part of getting started. My VA work has begun. Not much mileage, perhaps. Not yet! Still, I've gone way past zero. Finally, I have one VA assignment to post. My very first.
Probably viewed it 10x since 2nd week of February. Need to do this right. But first, I need to start. And I couldn't find a way to begin.
Something was wrong. I was home. At my place, right here....
I've freed myself of other commitments. But for some reason, I couldn't get started. The VA lessons just went completely over my head. The last consultancy project I completed stressed me out. Much more than I would admit.
What do you do when you're stressed? Me? I stop. I empty my mind. And I pray. I pray until I feel myself relaxing, my mind refreshed. And i knew just the place where I can do just that - a place where I can watch my very own sunset...like this one....
Well, that's not 'my very own sunset'. That's the mother sunset of 'my very own sunset'. That's a sunset by the lake. And the river that ends on that lake is the same river that I can see right outside my bedroom window. From another home. My mom's home. The place where I grew up. The place where, I was certain, I can work in peace.
