Happy New Year From Thailand
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
As I type this message Im sat in an internet cafe on vacation in Phuket Thailand.
And I wanted to be one of the first to wish you a Happy New Year,
so here goes …
… HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!
There you go,
now with thats said,
I have something very special I want to share with you,
infact it’s been life changing for me, so make sure to
read all of this.
before I start …
Please bare with me as Im typing off a thai keyboard
and there is alot going on around me,
(many people talking in many different launages)
Plus each time I look outside the internet cafe door
I see something that just amazes me,
Thailand Rocks 
Anyway,
I really do have something very special I want to share with you,
that could change your life for ever,
So lets get started …
I’ve been told by many online marketers that January is the best time
to make money from your mailing list online.
And Im sure if you’re on other marketers mailing lists, you will see them
hammer there lists with promotions selling selling selling ,
So here’s my plan …
… I want to give you BETTER information for FREE,
than the information others are trying to sell to you,
Sound good?
if so lets continue …
I’ve spent the past two weeks relaxing on vacation
in the wonderful resort of Phuket Thailand.
Which has given me plenty of time to reflect on my life
and what I want to accheve this year and beyond.
Before I came on this vacation my goal for 2008
was to make $250,000 this year online.
its not a bad goal huh, and its double what I made in 2007.
BUT !!! <<< and a BIG but,
Ive been reading the book
“The Four Hour Work Week”
Here is the life changing disision for you ok
if you are serious about making money online
I recommend you invest $20 and buy the book
The Four Hour Work Week from Amazon.com
Its great for new comers (newbies) and experienced marketers too,
many people have told me in the past,
“The right book will fall into your hands at the right time”
And its seems that saying has come up trumps again,
After reading this book it has totally changed my life,
Yes its a life changing book, (and for the better)
it has even inspired me to write a book that Im going to start working on shortly,
(the name is secret for now)
but I’ll make sure to give you a copy at no charge, (so keep an eye out)
at the moment I have to hold back on that book as Ive already started
working on my next book called,
“Post Launch Porfits secrets”
As well as working on that book I have mapped out my goals for 2008
to make sure I make an impact on your life as well as many others.
Which will help me go onto write the book Im most looking forward to writing,
Post Launch Profits “Post Launch”
Its going to blow you away …
as I see this being ten times more educational than Post Launch Profits ever was,
and again,
There will be no charge for you,
infact as Im typing this I can feel the hairs on my neck stand up
as I know I can help many people succeed online,
but only if YOU want to help yourself,
On my return home I will make sure to give you further details
on what I have planned for you,
but for the moment Im holding myself accountable to YOU !!!
so here goes …
… my new year resolution is to :-
WORK LESS AND MAKE MORE MONEY.
and my GOAL is to:-
TEACH YOU HOW TO DO THE SAME.
Deal ?
now to start this process I need you to hold yourself accountable to me.
Are you ready to start?
If you are ready to start the journey to internet riches with me,
You can start by posting a comment below with your new years resolution
and what you want to accheve this year.
you can even let me know what you want me to help you with
Reader's Comments
Well I hate to say it Alex….
But I passed out on the coach about 9:00 PM
New Years Eve, LOL………..
You know how tired Us marketers can get sometimes.. But I’m glad your having a Ball
Brother and can’t wait for the Video.
HAPPY NEW YEARS..
Roy Fielding
I want to work less hours and make more money than I did last year also. I am off to buy that book.
I am a newbie and am pumped. I will make a fortune on line and I can’t wait to start. Cheers to 2008 - my (and hopefully your) best year yet!
Hi ,
Good luck to you mate,and if you ask me I would like to be able to do the same one of these days!
Thanks and a happy and healthy 2008!
Hi Alex,
Your last release (Post Launch Profits) was an amazing read, and it seemed to target EXACTLY what the average person needed to get their online business into top gear. In fact I’d say that even the total newbie was able to understand what they needed to do to create their own income producing online business.
If your new product is even half as good as the last one, I can’t wait to read it and promote it to my readers.
All the best and I’m sooooo envious of your lifestyle.
Your friend,
Dave Isaacs
Hi Alex,
Well done very inspirational! I am a 59 year old driving a 7.5 tonne truck due to a failed soft toy business.I have just purchased my 1st website and will sell through this but am determined to become an internet marketeer and have set this as my 2008 goal.
All the best fro the New Year looking forward………..
Happy New Year to you Alex!
I am lucky since I have moved my residence from Hong Kong to Chiang Mai, Thailand only a couple of months ago. I agree with you that Thailand rocks.
Next time when you visit Thailand you should also consider coming to Chiang Mai, “the Rose of the North”.
My plans for this year are to launch my homepage http://www.webmediabiz.com within the next 2 weeks or so and to write 6 unique eBooks related to imports from China since I am living in Asia for nearly 2 decades now.
I will not be able to reach your target right away but I will do everything to move into that direction.
Happy New Year Alex,
I am glad you are having a great time. I can’t afford to go to the beach to reflect and plan so I will be content just sitting in the bathtub here in snowy - cold - Ontario, Canada.
My goal this year is to accept the help and advice of yourself and other marketers like Roy Fielding. I want to make a full time living frorm the imternet in 2008.
Cheers
I have a goal for 2008: to teach others how to build their business by fostering relationships. What would you like to learn Alex and when do you want to start. Now we are both going to have to be held accountable?
I like your goals Roy!
Mine include 10x my earnings from 2007 so I hope your video will help me achieve that.
Looking forward to making a great 2008!
Sounds great. Phuket. And the books you’ve planned.
Hope you come back from the Orient refreshed and re-charged and that you’ll pass some of that re-charging on to us, too.
Hi, Mr Alex,
Happy New Year, although a bit late for wishing you.
And my New Year resolution is to stop working
for my Boss and start earning from the internet
business.
And my goal is to be a million in two years time.
I mean to earn a hundred thousand within the
first 6 months of 2008. Can you help me to
achieve this ? Thank you so much for the
time being.
Regards,
Kong
Hey Alex! You look very happy & relaxed… vacation feels good, eh?!?
In the past few years things have changed so fast, I gave up on New Year’s resolutions. Instead, I make sure to re-evaluate and re-committ to identified goals & objectives. Right now this means continuing to “let go of stuff” in my Ebay store, and WRITE more, blogs, forums, articles, news for members, plus 3 books I have in development.
I’m just getting started so the make more money part is #1. In 2009, I have some important travel goals. If in 08, I only get a couple of longs weekends, that would be great.
So, I wish you a happy, healthy & prosperous 2008 and look forward to hearing from you again soon!
My website is under construction.
I did not do any party because I have not made any cent since I started in the net marketing.
I only receive big promises like you did just now.
I am looking forward to your promise. Others are on holiday but I cannot afford it that is the whole family is at home today being the first day of the year.
You can see that I am working now just to keep myself busy.
Can you something for me just to put a laughter in my face this year.
Thanks.
I spent a wonderful, relaxing day with my family at home with a buffet in the evening and a movie. My goal is to make $100,000 in 2008 with my current two full time jobs as well as learn as much as I can from you as my mentor to “Work less and make more money” so that I can replace that income and start working from home. I have already ordered “The Four Hour Work Week” from Amazon. Looking forward to your video in the New Year.
All the best, in your success
Lets keep on track together
Bud McKenzie
To start the New Year I would like to have a Blog just like you
Dear Jeffrey:
My main goal is to purchase a single level home.
My second goal is to buy a new Cadallic.
Also I would like to have your permission to become an affiliate for your Ebook. I really enjoyed the read. This high quality material.
I know I can sell a hundred copies easily.
Happy New Year
Tom Roche
Hi Alex,
I just wanted to wish you Happy New Year!
I’m working very hard, on bringing the value in
2008!
Congratulations on your fabulous New Year, I’m looking forward to that video!
Hi, I find your material interesting but here is my problem. I don’t have a website and don’t know how or where to get one or what to put in it. I am retired and don’t have a lot of extra money to start something with and have very little experience with computers and the internet. So if you can get me going on something to make money this way, I would be one hell of a success story for you. Steve
I laud you on completing the book!!
Hi Alex
Yours was the first email I opened in 2008
and it’s helped me set my goals for the New Year!
I had never heard of you until a couple of weeks ago, and since then I have been reading your Post Launch Profits eBook and watching your Video Series (by the way, when do we get to see videos 4,9,10,11 and 13?) and going over all the other Free bits that were made available, and I can now see that if all of this knowledge is applied correctly, I will be putting my websites to much better use it 2008!
I’m a patient guy, and to ‘WORK LESS AND MAKE MORE MONEY’ has sort of been the theme of my New Years Resolutions for the last four years….. But…. if you can teach me!
Well….. What more can I ask for
Enjoy the rest of your holiday and more importantly, enjoy the time with your Family!
I’m look forward to your next email
Happy New Year
Mike Swingle
Nice to hear about how wonderful your vacation is. I’ve been reading the 4 hr work week for the past couple of weeks when I have the time. It is life changing. To see that anyone can live like the NR is awesome!!! It really gives you hope to know that “you can do it too”! I’m excited about 2008. I really belive, for me, 2007 was a preparation year and that 2008 is the implimentation year.
Here is to success for you and all of your people!!!
ps….how cool would it be to all meet up in Thiland and celibrate our successes together!!!
happy New Year to you and yours. Look forward to reading more as time goes on.
My resolution is to get into the money on the internet. Something I think you know plenty about!
To be financially independent.
Ah Thailand… awesome! Great book as you know. Now’s the time to setup your muses Alex.
Have a great new year boss man…!

Chris
Hi Alex
Good to see you are having fun on holiday.
Happy New Year to you and I look forward to “bumping” into you at another IM event!
My new years resolution is to make Women Internet Marketers even bigger in 2008 than it was in 2007.
I now have the social network, membership site and womeninternetmarketers.tv
All I need to do now is continue to provide lots of value and do loads of promotions of ME!
Less promoting everyone else as the expert and more blowing my own trumpet! You know how us Brits have trouble with that lol
Take care dude

My New Year’s Resolution is to leave the past in the past and to live right here, right now.
My online business goal is 10000K a month net.
I have opted out of most folks email lists. yours is one of the few I have kept. And I feel a lot better not getting pounded everyday by calls to action.
Thanks for being sane.

Hey Alex,
Yea, I love that, working less for more money, this is my style, for sure.
My plan for 2008 is to… and a Lamborghini.
I studied a Lambo in Gatwick during my travel change. Wow, I just say wow what a caaar…
Have a blessed new Year of 2008 filled with prosperity!

Happy New Year to you and your wife.
I am studying your Easy Profit Auctions program and it is a great piece of work.
The only problem I have is that I keep recieving all these free ebooks and videos from everybody. I think I have a new term for it. It’s called IMADD (Internet Marketing Attention Deficit Disorder). I am sure most people can relate to that.
I need to stay focus on your program, do the work, make money with it, then move on to the next.
Anyways, take care.

My resolution is to be more consistent.
In eating chocolate, that is.
Happy New Year to you!

Anxiously waiting for your notification
Hi Alex, and a very happy new year to you.
I would just like to say that I would like to
start the journey to internet riches with you.
My new years resolution is to work less and
earn more, who would’nt want that?
I’ve built my own website from scratch in the hope of using it as a stepping stone to earning a decent living via the internet.
Please review it and give me your expert opinion, as to how I can inprove it in any way,
all constructive criticism is more than welcome.
Best Regards
John.
Hey Alex,
Happy New Year! I’m glad you’re enjoying your vacation.
I just finished reading Four Hour Workweek and I agree with you… It’s great!
Ryan
Hi Alex,
It’s a tough ol life at times. My resolution for this year is to stop faffing around buying loads of useless information and concentrate on getting my website up and running properly.
Happy New Year
Hey Alex,
Hope your slapping on the sun tan lotion!
This year I wish to achieve lots more affiliates
promoting my product.
I want to get a brand new mini cooper too!
Not asking for much am I!
Say Hi to Katie, and Cameron Sally x
Hey Alex,
My New Years resolution is:
I resolve to replace my current income from Uncle Sam, I’m in the Army, and be able to spend as much time with my family as Possible.
What you can help me with:
I’m a Newbie in every since of the word. I do have some Knowledge, but when working with someone new, I think it is best to go in knowing nothing inorder to best duplicate the successful ones success. So I guess I’m saying anything and everything you want to help me with.
HAPPY NEW YEARS…
Alex,
This is the first time I’ve ever done this so, to say I’m a real novice is a terrible understatement. I am reading the same book right now and I couldn’t agree more with you. Because of many life issues, I am VERY driven to position my wife and I so we can do what he speaks of in that book. My 2008 goal is to learn how and develop a six figure plus internet business that really helps people and allows us to work from anywhere and start enjoying life and this wonderful world we live in.
Thanks for your help and we are looking forward to working with you.
Chris
I need help in getting my site promoted.and getting a list.
I would like to earn at least 75,000.in 2008
Do you think you can help me,with out a lot of expence?
Hers to us all having a SUPER HAPPY NEW YEAR>
Ella Gibbons
Happy New Year .
I cant wait to get your new book.
As we live in Australia we spend most of our holidays in Phuket. It’s a fabulous place to unwind and the golf’s great!
Happy New Year.
Ken Nickless
Hey Alex,
My new year resolution is to finish everything I star..
Welcome to 2008
Christopher
I think there are many of us who got interested in IM not to become the next “guru” and make an obscene income, but rather to make a decent income while getting back some control over our time.
So here is my challenge to you, Alex… Don’t tell me how I can make $100/day doing something that will take 10 hrs/day. Teach me how I can get the most LEVERAGE for my time. For example, I’d love someone to write an Ebook on the 10 top biggest BANG methods for my internet BUCK (or time). Or how I can make the most working the least. A “4 Hour Work Week for the Internet”.
All the best,
-Gene Chamson
Good life!!!
Great book!
Thanks.
oh…
Happy new year!!
Thailand? Come on Jefferey, must be just a tad warmer than Wisconsin! LOL
My first resolution is a personal one, to quit smoking. After that it is to do more this year and become more independent financially. To do better and help others more this year.
Happy New Year & to everyones success,
Scott
Resolution for 2008 is to make some money on the net instead of spending it.
Hope you can help in the new year haven’t been able to get anything going in 2007 and spent enough money to own a new computer, However I’ve also been quite ill and too tired to do a normal days work only one side of my heart is working so some days don’t even turn on the computer.
All the best in 2008
Len
Happy New Year back to you. My resolution is to launch my online site and equal (at a minimum) my current job salary and look to hand in the fun notice.
Hello,
My new years resolution is to replace my current income and be able to quit my job by next year… and to become better at copyrighting
Hey Alex,
I am glad to here you guy’s are having fun.
I have heard that Thailand is an incredible place.
Happy New Year!
Regards
Ron
Hey Alex can’t wait for the New Years Video…
Also your book ideas have me interested, can’t wait to see them…
What I want to accomplish this year as my New Years resolution is $200, 000 online…
Anything you can provide to help me reach this plateau would be greatly appreciated…
HAPPY NEW YEAR
Jim Derr
Hey Alex,
Glad your able to be off in Thailand on Vacation! Enjoy!
My goal for 2008 is to make $200,000 in net profits through affiliate marketing, personal sales and adsense and/or similar revenues. I have spent the last 6 months learning the basics to be able to make this thing fly. So 2008 is
the year for me to lift off and start flying! I am also gathering in the things I know about and am looking at creating my own product(s) this year so that I can brand myself. Thanks for all your great help and support Alex….Please keep it up!
By the way…..the last guy that posted before me…….you gotta click on his name link in the post and watch some of his utube videos….They are hilarious! This guy is funny! Watch the one with the bandage on his head & in shades…..Tooo good! Thanks and Happy New Year to all! Lisa aka Raebwons.
I don’t usually read these things but decided that I should.
This is the 2nd time I’ve come across, “The Four Hour Work Week” so thank you.
I’ve decided that this will be my year to count my blessings, live life fully, declare & strive for what I want. One of my main goals is financial abundance & I know the internet is an excellent source of financial abundance.
I plan on starting an internet based travel business & would love to have some techniques that actually work for marketing. I’m hoping that you have some gems to offer.
Happy New Year, & many blessings to you.
Thanks for the book recommendation.
Happy New Year!
Hey Alex,
Thanks for recommending “The 4-Hour Workweek” it’s been on my list to read for too long and I’m glad you got alot out of it. Have a safe trip home from Thailand and enjoy the New Year!

Hey Alex –
Thanks for the goodies. I just hope I don’t bust a brain cell trying to absorb all this at once, but it sure looks good. Here’s to a WHEE! of a New Year!
Sandra
My goal is to make $5,000 a month online.
That will replace my full time job which I earn $2,000 a month after tax but have to work like a rat race.
Hey Alex,
Glad to hear your having a great time! I would love to see Thailand and be writing to you from an Internet cafe. One day I’ll do just that!
But, until then I have a lot of work to do. I became disabled a couple years ago and after my self pity time and my pissed of at the world time and my not giving a damn about anything time, I decided, with the help of my family that never gave up on me, that I did give a damn and wanted to start getting some sort of a life back.
I just put this site up and don’t have anything uploaded yet. Frankly, I’m having trouble getting my plr products uploaded. I can’t seam to figure out how to do it! I have got this far by trial and error, mostly error and wasted money.
I am on disability and a very limited income so wasted money means food off my families table!
I could use any help you would be willing to offer.
Thanks,
Rusty
PS. Sorry didn’t mean to write a book!
By the way,
Happy New Year!!
Hi Alex
Happy new year to you
You seem to be having maverlous time in Thailand.
Enjoy each second and be blessed always.
This year I am moving out of my comfort zone and stepping up and moving up to create change in my life.
I have lived in a limiting belief system for the past 10 years. In the process I have learned that it only takes actions for change to take place.
My resolution this year is to act.
I really would like to know more about internet marketing, about what you do.
I have read some e-books that I have downloaded from the internet but I am not sure where to start, and how to begin.
Please assist.
Be blessed

Hi Alex,
When you’re not in Thailand, where’s home?
I’m English but have lived most of my life in South-East Asia, currently in Indonesia and always looking for people that I have a sporting chance of meeting face to face.
To your success,
Peter.
happy new year
Happy New Year to you too, Alex from one Roath boy to another. Glad to see you’re getting a little “me” time. I just finished reading Post Launch Profits and must say I can’t wait for your next book.
Here’s to you
Ray Harries
Hey Alex!
I’m also spending New Years on vacation. My family and I are in Germany now visiting her family. It’s been wonderful!
I’ve been around taking pictures and just enjoying the time away. You can see the pictures here on my blog:
http://www.thephotogformula.com/Blog
I believe 2008 to be the year for me to finally break into internet marketing. I’m in the process of developing my first product, in the digital photography niche.
One of my short term goals is to make enough money that I can take my wife anywhere she wants to go for our 10 year anniversary, which is May. So I have some work to do!
Thank you for what you have done so far, and I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us next.
Happy 2008!
Nate
Alex,
I want to be there where you are now in a years time or sooner if possible.
I have been podering on how to get my internet business off the ground for a while now.
I have had endless self help e-books thrown at me and I do not want to miss out on an oppurtunity to get aboard the money express.
I know I will have to dedicate time and some money in order to get to that point where I do not have to work anymore for someone else.
Look forward to chatting to you in 2008.
Rob
Hello Alex you realise being in Thailand this time of year you are missing out on the lovely frosty mornings,cloudy damp days and cold nights we brits love so much.
Like Roy I also missed the new year working12hour days New Years Day, mean”t early to bed.
Which with your guidance I can avoid next year
Enjoy the rest of your holiday and a happy new year Alex.
Frank.
Hi Alex,
As you know I am a 74 years young American Citizen living in Cairo, Egypt. I am very interested in making money on the Internet but have been advised you can not make money on the Internet here. I live on a very limited income (can not get a job here as I am too young) so I need help. I do not have a lot of money to invest (or lose) and it is a problem get things through the mail here as sometimes it is gets lost somewhere. Can you help me ???
Have a good vacation
Bill Hiner
250,000 not a bad goal, I just wish to make
a few dollars
Hi Alex it all sounds good i want more than any thing to change my life and familys to somthing better,im new on the internet but moving fast,i have 3 manuls to sell if you want to JV please get back to me kind regards lee
I don`t have a web site yet but just finished setting up my domain name and hosting account. For me this was a big thing. I am 69 years toung and I am tring to start a web business. This would give my wife and I the means to fiw up our home and travel to England in2008. Looking forward to hearing from you again. Thanks Dan.
Hi Alex
I glad to know you are enjoying in Phuket Thailand. Yes, my house is in a province near Bangkok. I am a Thai sure! I think you are the great IM. I would like to learn more from you with hope that I can meet some freedom of money.
I hope you have fun in Thailand. I would like you satisfy here. Happy New Year 2008.
Got an email from Liz Tomey talking about you. Liz has always given great info so I thought I’d check you out. I did a quick scan through your free ebook and was really impressed with the contents. We used to hate marketing but tried it last year anyway and did quite well though we did it part time, slacked in some months and had a few stumbles along the way. I’m certain 2008 will be a big year for us if we stay focused. Oh yeah, I like that quote you mentioned by Zig Ziglar: “You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough others get what they want.” Special Thanks to unselfish marketers like you for all the good stuff you give. You Rock!
My goals for 2008 are to earn a stead $250 a week (modest) and develop a dreaming ecourse that will give readers an exact method for understanding their dreams.
Alex,
Happy New Year. Thanks for all of your updates. My goal right now is to make $10,000 a month. I believe it will happen. Keep up the good work.
Larry
Hi Alex
Thanks for the New Year’s greeting for Patong! I was there in Phuket recently after reading your Post Launch Profits, and i can say it was an inspiration!
Every day whilst sitting at the beach, i was thinking about 2008, that it will be a great year and i’ll be making passive online income to take vacations in Thailand (and all over the world) knowing my internet business is funding the trip.
My Phuket photos are on Facebook. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=13443&l=5645f&id=516862332
Do you have a Facebook account? Internet marketers such as Derek Gehl, Joel Comm and Matt Bacak are in my Facebook circle of friends.
For me personally, my aim is to concentrate on Adsense and Affiliate Marketing, with the aim of USD7k/month by June 2008, doubling thereafter to USD15k/month by December. Setting up small niche websites (virtual real-estate) and eventually launching my own niche products and doing JV’s - as outlined in your Post Launch Profits ebook.
enjoy your holiday and hear from you soon
cheers
Edmund
Hi Alex,
Your desire to share your goal with everyone brought a smile to my heart! I, too, want start an Internet business that I can work from ANYWHERE in the world, ANYTIME I choose. Additionally, I want to do it with PASSION! Please show me how.
What’s the plan for 2008.
Focus. Focus. Focus and oh yeah,
Simplify.
Hi Alex
Just wanted to drop you a line or two for the hardest working man on the internet and a good friend. Keep up the good work Alex and I hope you and your family are having a great time while on vacation.
Happy New Year
