What
If We Could Create A Profitable New
Product Together... While
Taking An Exotic Caribbean Vacation?
"You Are Invited To Join Me And My Family, Along With A Select Group Of Marketing Maniacs, For A Breathtaking 8-Day Luxury New Year's Cruise To The Caribbean!
Welcome Aboard
The Amazing "Product Creation Vacation!"
NO "kiss my ring" speakers, we
are all equals, and YOU can walk
away with your
own profitable new product created while
relaxing aboard a world-class cruise-ship.
If
you've ever wished you could just sit
back and enjoy uninterrupted vacation
time
while brainstorming with your marketing
buddies, here's your chance...
Because I'm not trying to sell
you anything -- except an idea!
If you're reading this, you
were invited by me, Jay
Jennings (or one of my friends),
to join our small, intimate group
of marketing friends for an 8-day fun-filled
New Year's Cruise vacation.
It's
the Product Creation Vacation!
First, for the people
who are devotees of Joe Friday, here
are just the facts:
Who:
Jay Jennings and other hard-core internet
marketers.
What:
Cruise to five Caribbean islands.
When:
January 5-13, 2008
Where:
Sailing out of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
Why:
To create info
products together, brainstorm,
and have fun!
Now, for those of us who
need a little
more info, here's the
complete scoop...
My family and I are going
on a cruise next January (a great time
to leave Alaska!) and I'm going to take
along my laptop, and my audio/video
gear, and create at least one info product while I'm on board - and there will
still be plenty of time for all the
activities with the family.
I was involved with a
cruise-based brainstorming session a
few years ago and know how much energy
a bunch of marketers can create, and
it hit me that I could recapture that
magic with a group of people who are
passionate about putting together their
own info product (either your first,
or your latest).
My friend Captain Lou
is the "cruise master" so
I called him and he's pulling everything
together for me -- including getting
a"war room" ready for us on
the ship (the cruise lines calls it
a meeting room, but I know what's going
to happen in there!).
Here's
What's Happening...
Mid-October:
You'll receive a package from me containing
the software that I use to put together
info products. Also, if any other participants
have things to share, I'll include those
as well (this is a group, not a dictatorship,
so I'm not limiting it to "my" stuff).
Mid-November:
The first of two pre-sailing conference
calls. This one will be mainly to get
acquainted with everyone and find out
what types of info products everyone's
interested in as well as to start our
brains churning on the possibilities we have before us.
Mid-December:
Second of two pre-sailing conference
calls. A brainstorm call designed to
make sure everybody's ready to go for
the cruise -- including, what do you
need to bring for creating your info
product, what can I help you with (finding
an expert for an interview? raw materials
to turn into multimedia?), etc.
On the cruise:
Four 3-hour workshops
session. In addition to actually
working on our products, I'll
show exactly how I put together multimedia
info products, including sessions on
using audio and video in your product and how to create digital and physical
products. We'll also go over those things
that surround your info product including
your web site, copywriting, launching
(with and without JV partners), etc.
And it's not just about
me -- we'll have some people on board
who have expertise in different areas
and we'll all share ideas and knowledge
(what works, what doesn't work, etc.).
Seven 1-hour brainstorming
sessions. Every evening we'll
get together for an hour of hardcore
planning and brainstorming about online
marketing. On the last cruise I was
on, one evening we "took over" the ship's library, gathered around
a big table, and had the coolest mastermind
session I've ever been involved with.
You can track successful ideas that are
online today back to that session around
the table!
Mid-January:
The first of two wrap-up calls. Getting
ready to launch your new product (if
you haven't already)...
Mid-February:
The last of the wrap-up calls. Go over
anything else about product creation
and brainstorm new ideas and directions.
Afterwards:
I'd like the cruise group to metamorphose
into a regular mastermind group that
gets together via the phone or web once
a week for brainstorming. I can point
to my involvement in such a group as
being the catalyst for a lot of my online
success.
I expect great things
to come from this cruise - in fact,
I expect some products to come out of
this one week at sea that will
rock the internet marketing world.
You're going to be able to say, "I
was part of the group that brainstormed
that idea" and marketers around
the world are going to wish they were
in your shoes.
That's the main info about the product
creation end of things -- but that's
only a SMALL part of the whole trip.
Your family, for instance, will probably
be more concerned with everything else
that's happening, and not the incredible
synergy that will be happening in our
workshop room!
Keep reading for all of
that information...
...on the other hand,
if you don't care about the details
and are ready to put down a deposit
on your room, use this link and do that
right now before all the rooms are gone (it's not a marketing gimmick, it's a fact of life in the cruise world!).
Dude! In doing what I do everyday, I found out about a cruise where some very well-known millionaire marketers will be going to the Caribbean in January. Wow, wouldn't it be a coincidence if our cruise just happened to be on the same ship at the same time? Weird, eh? (No, I'm not allowed to say who it is, and might get slapped for even saying that much!)
This cruise
is NOT about pitching products
from the podium...it's about a group
of like-minded friends getting together
to enjoy an 8-day vacation of 'fun in
the sun' in the Caribbean and having
a great time!
Although
it's inevitable that
when internet marketers get together
they will talk about business, I want
to make it clear that the focus
of the 2008 New Year's Cruise
is two-pronged:
To create
your own information product, and...
To enjoy
a relaxing vacation with your family
and friends.
Assure your spouse that this will NOT
be "all marketing, all the time!"
If they need more reassurance than you
can give them, have them contact my
wife Wanda and get her take on it. (It
went something along the lines of, "If
you think we're going to go on a cruise
where you play with your marketing friends
the entire time while I watch the kids,
you'd better think again!")
I'm looking
at this as a way to have a fantastic
vacation with my family -- and do some
hard-core brainstorming about marketing
with like-minded people. You can still
come even if you're single, but I hope
you take this opportunity to bring along as much of your family as you can.
This is
the opportunity to spend 8 days and
8 nights having fun with a small group
of people who "speak your language"...enjoying
social time with old friends, and building
new friendships that will last a lifetime.
One reason we picked Carnival is because of the activities they have for kids!
Have
You Ever Wished You Could Just Sit Back
And Enjoy Uninterrupted Social Time,
Face-to-Face, With Your Marketing Friends?
(And Still Walk Away With A New Product You've
Just Created!)
Let's be
honest...
One of
the primary reasons you, I, and many
other successful people attend live
seminars and events is for the chance
to visit, in person, with our
business peers and friends.
Most people tend to be very social creatures... especially
after they haven't seen anyone except
their spouse, their children, their
pets, and their computers for a few
months straight.
We LIVE
for the moments we can actually hang
around, in person, with the
friends we've made while working from
home, and to make new friends. Unfortunately,
live events just don't offer enough
unstructured time to do this beyond
a superficial level...
Between
speakers, dinners, business networking,
and other scheduled activities, you
barely have time to talk with your friends
at all...in fact, most often you're
only able to yell "hi" to someone as
you cross paths going in and out of
the meeting room!
And, when you finally do steal
a moment to visit with a friend, you're
inevitably interrupted by someone who
wants to introduce themselves to you.
Now that's
not a bad thing...in fact, it's great
for business.
However,
wouldn't it be fantastic to participate
in a social event that offers plenty
of free, unstructured time...to simply
catch up, hang
out, and have
fun with your family and friends?
And, since everyone loves
to cruise...
I decided to combine the two concepts,
and invite you (and whatever friends
and relatives you'd like to bring along)
to spend 8 days... relaxing
on the sun-drenched decks of a ship,
exploring exotic ports of the Caribbean,
and generally enjoying each
other's company as we work together on our products
and brainstorm.
The
ONLY Thing That's
Required From You During
The Entire
8 Days Is That You Have
A Great Time !
In
addition to an enjoyable vacation, all
of us will profit by cementing
relationships and sharing product creation
strategies with one another in a laid-back,
friendly, tropical setting.
To make
sure everyone has a chance to meet each
other, we'll have a few informal gatherings during
our days at sea... attendance
is completely OPTIONAL.
But, you may find you want to
attend.
For
The Die-Hard Internet Marketers
In Our Group!
I've
reserved a private meeting room during
our days at sea so we can hold...
Closed-Door
Brainstorming and Product Creation
Sessions!
... Meet
one-on-one, or in small groups, with
your marketing buddies to share ideas
in a comfortable and confidential
setting.
But
How Can We Be Away From Our Online Businesses
For A Full Week?
The Carnival Liberty has
a huge Internet Cafe and
Wifi hotspots throughout the ship
should you want to bring your laptop.
Plus cheap Internet access in every
port as low as 5 cents a minute...so
we never have to be out of touch for
long, or AT ALL!
Most cell phones now work
even when we are out deep at sea!
Just tell your cellular provider that
you'll be sailing on the Carnival
Liberty from Jan. 5th to the 13th.
The first part of January
is typically SLOW for most
of our businesses, because it's right
AFTER the big holiday rush season,
making it the perfect time to ESCAPE
and REFRESH ourselves with an even
bigger vision and plans for NEXT year!
What
Makes the 2008 New Year's Product
Creation Vacation So Unique?
The
opportunity to have fun 24/7 for 8
days and 8 nights with like-minded
friends who rarely have the chance
to get together for fun.
The opportunity to brainstorm
with other top Marketers in a relaxing,
fun atmosphere like no other
you've ever experienced.
The opportunity to visit
exotic locations and share
the experience with your family and
friends.. these are moments you'll
remember for a lifetime!
The
2008 New Year's Cruise Is A
Product Creation Vacation
Unlike Any Other You Will Ever Experience...
On this
unique cruise, you'll have 8 fun-filled
days and nights to relax, socialize,
and PLAY! For instance...
Celebrate
with friends at our private,
open bar "Bon Voyage" party.
Enjoy delicious
gourmet meals...24 hours
a day.
Relax by the
pool or in a hot tub with
your spouse.
Hang out with
friends while drinking
a Margarita and listening to sensuous
salsa music .
Enjoy the
glitter and excitement
of a Broadway-style show after dinner.
Treat yourself
to a 5-star meal at the
ship's specialty restaurant (you'll
enjoy this so much, you should plan
to do it TWICE!)...the food will
just melt in your mouth.
Explore exotic
ports of call -- San Juan,
St. Thomas, Antigua, Tortola, Nassau -- lounge on white sand beaches
and sail, snorkel, scuba dive, visit
forts and castles. underwater caves and
the lost city of Atlantis.

stores onboard ship and
at the many ports of call.

beautiful seascape from
atop the cruise liner's deck.

night away at one of the
ship's hot nightclubs.

with a luxurious full-body massage.

in onboard games and contests

Reminisce
with friends about all
the fun you had on the cruise during
our farewell breakfast.
You'll
Have A Blast Exploring Five Exciting
Ports of Call With Your Friends And
Family...
We'll
be sailing on Carnival's Top-of-the-Line
FUN-Ship...the "Liberty."
The Carnival
Liberty - Home of the
Product Creation Vacation
We
chose Carnival for two very important
reasons:
Cruise connoisseurs know
that Carnival is the way to go when
traveling with a group where FUNis the #1 priority.
"Camp Carnival" is second to none
regarding quality childcare
and organized activities
for children. Since my kids are a big part of why I'm doing this, that's important!

Sleep late if you wish, skip a formal

WHAT to see and do when we visit our
amazing ports of call.....
Historic San Juan, once nothing
more than cobblestone streets
and the distinctive architecture
of the Spanish who founded it,
is now a modern world capital.
Among the peaceful shaded courtyards
and commanding colonial fortresses
of El Morro and San Cristobal,
you'll find a cosmopolitan city
of wide boulevards, lively cafes,
highly regarded galleries and
designer boutiques. This is
where the old world meets the
new - and you can enjoy them
both.
ST.
THOMAS, USVI
Not all of St. Thomas' treasures
are buried. Most of them are
right in the open on this gorgeous
island, home of the infamous
Bluebeard's Tower. Whether looking
for jewels, crystal, perfume
and fine wines in the shops
of Charlotte Amalie, or soaking
up the sun on the incredible
beaches, you'll marvel at the
wealth of history on this treasure-filled
paradise.
ANTIGUA
The largest of the British
Leeward Islands offers you warm,
steady winds, a coastline of
safe harbors and a nearly unbroken
wall of coral reef. These same
attributes that once attracted
the British Royal Navy, also
established Antigua as one of
the premier tourist destinations
in the Caribbean.
TORTOLA,
BVI
Sail
across the channel on yachts
destined for Norman, Cooper,
Salt or Pepper Islands. Here
you can swim and snorkel into
underwater caves and among colorful
coral reefs. A scenic island
tour takes you up Fort Hill
to Cane Garden Bay where you
can relax on spectacular white-sand
beaches. Enjoy the tales of
this historic waterway as you
retrace the paths of Christopher
Columbus and Sir Frances Drake.
NASSAU,
BAHAMAS
What makes Nassau so special?
Picture an idyllic place with
stretches of perfect white-sand
beaches, gracefully swaying
coconut palms offering oases
of shade, and warm, crystal-clear
waters revealing the secrets
of incredible multi-colored
marine life. Whether you spend
the day shopping for duty-free
gifts and mementos, taking a
carriage ride past sorbet-colored
buildings, or touring in a glass-bottom
boat, chances are you'll leave
this happy place in the Bahamas
with lots of beautiful memories.
