Hi,

I’m getting ready for the last hurrah of 2008! It’s gonna be a wild, fun-filled nite. I’ll have another message for you tomorrow as we all lounge around and welcome in 2009. See tomorrow you can officially get the scoop on my new “She Factor Copywriting Bootcamp” that starts January 15. Don’t hurt your head reading. Just have a quick look see and tell me what ya think!

Happy New Year!

Lo

Picture this.

I’m sitting on a cozy bench in an open-air room looking out over a calm, blue ocean. Jake Gyllenhaal is standing next to me (shirtless with amazing abs) wearing a bicycle helmet. He’s making me some sort of healthy drink with nutmeg and smiling that boyish smile.

I’m not that into his concoction, but, hey, it’s Jake. So I give it a try. I notice there’s a platter of fresh carrot sticks on a table next to him that he’s been nibbling on.

(Psst! In a hurry to learn more about dreams? Hop over here! Now back to the dream . . .) http://www.redhotcopy.com/dreaming101teleseminar.html

He walks over to look at the ocean and suddenly my mother is sitting next to me on the bench. I tell her I’m going to marry him. She replies, “No you’re not. You just met him.”

That was it.

Now had I not learned something about dreams from dream expert, Lauri Loewenberg, I might have been a little freaked out.

I mean for starters, I’m happily married. Why would this hunky celebrity show up in my dream? I’ve never even thought of him before. Why is he feeding me healthy things? And why did I want to MARRY him considering I’m already married?

Luckily Lauri was able to interpret it for me today. I’ll share her dream interpretation in just a minute, but first, if you want a shot at having YOUR DREAM interpreted, as well as learning how you can interpret your own, there’s still room on the special teleseminar with Lauri THIS THURSDAY!

You get special treatment as a member of my Red Hot VIP Community so be sure to read it ALL. Plus you get access to a free link to submit YOUR DREAM for Lauri to work her magic on! And when you sign up you’ll also learn to understand the simple language of dreams, you can actually . . .

=> Understand your dreams so you FULLY grasp the secrets of what makes you tick;

=> Listen to your dreams as they reveal your deepest motivations;

=> Know your subconscious and determine what (and WHO) is good for you;

=> Determine when you are on the right track, when you have done the right thing and when you’ve got that perfect idea!

So here are some of Lauri’s insights.

Because what’s going on in your life now often shows up in dreams, I let her know what happened yesterday when I was looking at the cover of the Oprah magazine. (You know, the one where she was thin and now she’s not.) And realized I’ve let myself go a little over the holidays. Not enough exercise or healthy eating.

So Jake showed up in my dream as a SYMBOL of healthier living. At least he looks healthy, exercises, and eats well (I think). Somewhere in my subconscious he presented someone who takes care of himself.

I wanted to MARRY HIM as a commitment to my newer healthy choices. Just like marriage is a commitment, so is a healthy lifestyle.

My mother showed up saying I couldn’t get married as a symbol of my FEAR I wouldn’t be able to ‘commit.’ After all, it’s tough to stay healthy during the holidays with all that yummy food around and late night parties. So I had some fear in the back of my mind.

Pretty cool, isn’t it.

The results?

I actually went to my workout studio today and am eating small, regular meals. So because I listened to my dream, I’m having a fabulously energetic day! Dreams really have to power to change your life, when you KNOW WHAT THEY MEAN.

What’s your dream? I’d love to know! Please join us THIS THURSDAY at 3pm Pacific/6pm Eastern. http://www.redhotcopy.com/dreaming101teleseminar.html

Today as part of my Sterling Inner Circle Mastermind call I discussed (among 4 other hot topics) how to make money over the holidays. One of my suggestions was to hold a teleseminar. I gotta be honest…my entre into teleseminars was in 2004 through Coachville. Excellent overview and I started to dip my toe in the water.

Then I took Alex Mandossian’s Teleseminar Secrets and my business model totally changed. He actually has a call on Thursday, December 4 at 6pm PST/9pm EST. If you can make it, you should. I’ll be there. Register at www.redhotteleseminar.com.

Meanwhile, I can give you a brief overview of how to conduct a teleseminar. Trust me…this is BARE BONES. There are so many ways to do it wrong. Take my advice and learn from Alex.

a. Survey your market to find out what they want. Surveymonkey.com. Don’t waste your time on a topic they won’t pay for.
b. Select a date and time. Depends on your market but Monday – Thursday better usually. If have something from 9am to noon Pacific/noon to 3pm Eastern usually get some global attendees.
c. Decide how long the call will be. 60-75 mins fits on a CD.
d. Decide format of call. Guest or no? Q&A or no? Submit questions ahead of time or no?
e. Come up with a snazzy title. Examples: *Secrets to Getting Fabulous Celebrity Endorsements for Your Book, Your Business & Your Products* or * How To Strategically Grow Your Business Using Facebook & Other Social Media* or *Insider Secrets to Writing Copy that Sells to Women*

h. Write online sales letter.
i. Set up shopping cart or other payment system.
j. Write Autoresponder for purchases.
k. Write success page copy for after purchase with directions explaining what to do. Can be the same copy as Autoresponder.
l. Write promotional copy for ezine, blog, social networking groups.

o. 15 minutes before teleseminar lock up pets, turn off phone ringers, go to the bathroom. Visualize a smooth informative call. Jump around or dance to get your energy up. When dialing in, press *70 to turn off call waiting.
p. After call, create thank you Autoresponder for attendees. Let them know when the audio is available for download.
q. If you’re turning this into a product, you should have it transcribed. I use Elizabeth Douglas at e-douglas@sbcglobal.net. Expect 3-5 days turnaround from most transcriptionists.
