Everything you "know" about Web 2.0 is WRONG
But we're here to make it right. Brace yourselves, folks. This video is a doozy.
Personally, I think it's the best one in the whole Going Natural 2.0 series so far. We'll let Andy Edmonds off the hook for now and let another esteemed StomperNet faculty member take the wheel. Don Crowther's been in the secret StomperNet labs for the past several months, wrapping his arms around this whole "social media" thing you may have heard about. And he's uncovered the TRUTH about some of the biggest myths out there:
- Social Media sites are filled with pre-teens, not viable prospects… WRONG!
- Social Media site visitors don't spend money online… WRONG!
- Social media sites are just a fad… WRONG!
Listen, we've been getting incredible results from our experiments, and our research indicates we're only seeing the tip of this Web 2.0 iceberg. And that's a GREAT metaphor because unlike other internet marketing opportunities, Social Marketing can be DANGEROUS to your business! If you do this WRONG, that "iceberg" will sink your business like the Titanic.
Fortunately for you, we've taken the time to figure out the SMART way to leverage this opportunity, and in this new video, we tell you what's up.
Turn off the phone, close your email and IM - you need to see this today.
Wow! You guys have the social media networking thing down!
2008 is becoming the year the internet marketing community really takes on & capitalizes on the "Attention Age Doctrine" that make these sites important to our business' future earnings.
This is another reason Stompernet is the premier community for forward thinking netpreneurs!
Thanks for the priceless content you guys have come up with.

Awesome, can't wait to watch it. The player is not working in firefox though. I am able to watch the video in IE7.
Another incredible video guys. Way to give clear, actionable tips for everyone to put to use for their business.
I look forward to the report!
Best Regards,
Craig
Most informative, thanks much.
I learned more with your video than 2 years prior. WOW
Thanks for the Great Video Don… & Guys…
Greg White
You folks at stomper net are good guys.
The video and free report are just more proof that this is the golden age for running a online business.
People listen up and take action.
All the best to you and yours!

Wow! This information is mind-boggling, but pleasantly so. I'm still reworking my site away from flash version to get up to speed with the previous disclosures. Now, I feel more inclined to set up a separate blog instead, to try this out, and just point to that site and see what happens. Thanks for a birthday present that promises super results.

Excellent Videos. Excellent Info. Well done. Looking forward for the Free report.
I started my website about a year ago with internet speedway and have not sold anything as yet although they advertise how much sales and orders you will get while you are sleeping I"ve spent money on all type of marketing this is the most promising I have heard of so far and I am excited about this social marketing.
Don & Andy,
THAT WAS AWESOME!!! I don't know what happened to the formal announcement at 12:00 noon EST but at about 1:30 or 2:00 I got an e-mail from Chris Malta with the link to Video #4 about SMARTS. THANK YOU! I am new to internet marketing (see my two other posts in your forums) and don't even have my first site up and running yet but I am absolutely thrilled with the stuff you guys are producing. And the best part is, since I am only listening to Andy, Brad and the faculty at StomerNet (through only the free content that is available…since you haven't yet given me the opportunity to join StomperNet) I am building my site(s) using only the best info available. I am not getting distracted with other worthless or counter productive strategies.
Kudos to you all. Keep it coming. I will be one of the first to sign up for Don's coaching program for SMARTS. I can't wait for Wednesday! My credit card is ready.
Thanks guys, you all are the best. And thanks so much for caring about all of "us" enough to release so much valuable content for free. You could just as easily be greedy and keep it all to yourselves but you don't and that is what I love about you all the most.
Thank you.
Hi Don and Andy;
Thank you for the great information about social marketing. I have been following this type of information and yes, I can see it is rocking.
Don, you have spelled it out with a much clearer understanding. My business partner and myself have hesitated to make a move on social marketing with the fear of making a mistake. I can see this is the mistake as we need to "step out and make a difference." You know the deal "Do the uncomfortable until it becomes comfortable."
Thanks again for the great video and I will still be here with "my nose pressed against the windows of Stompernet" and looking forward to any information you guys are willing to share.
As always, you guys are the greatest!!
Great video. This really puts things in perspective and confirms my own research. It also makes it easier to conceptualize web 2.0 and where we're headed, and how important social networking/media/marketing has become. Thanks!
I can hardly wait to get my hands on your report. I learned so much just from this video. Many thanks and blessings on you all.
"Brilliant" !
You video has great information - and all of it sounds doable! I'm excited about the possibilities of expanding the reach of my website for gay Christians. Thanks for the great information!

Thanks for all of your info. I'm looking forward to getting The Free report on Social
MARKETING Tool Kit. Video has worked for me were I got 3,000 hits on my video on utube.
Go to youtube and type in Windshield test. You will see my 2 videos from autoneeds1.
Wow, what a great video. Can't wait to see the report! Thanks!!
Got it now. Firefox must have cached a bad copy of the page or something?
I got it to play on IE.
Good stuff so far Don.
Can I just say… WOW?!?
I loved the video; there were a couple of techniques that I've been using already to promote a new business that I plan on launching next week, but I've been clueless to the value of bookmarking, and loved the information about Scribd. I've been looking for a place to upload my whitepapers and other text-based information. Video is great, but it is time consuming at best, and in the long run, how much interesting videos can you post???
All in all, GREAT stuff!

I really like to read and get information about all the web and internet marketing, and i think
that your videos are one of the top in video
quality and quality of information
thank you
Sandbox…what sandbox? I know fora fact that everything that this video is saying is true! I use some of these techniques all the time. But I learned some new ones. I can't believe you guys are revealing these powerful techniques! You gotta be keeping some really good gems to yourself. I wish I was a fly on your wall:)

Absolutely magnificent video!! Thanks
A magnificent video. I already know about and use these tactics but your video just inspires me to do a little extra work or should I call it play.
I really hope people HEED the warning about RESPONSIBLE social marketing.
If you lie you will burn in social hell!
Peter
With all sincere respect, I don't know what the catch is…BUT I am very very greatful for your education which is exceptional.We are looking forward to applying this education to our http://www.callofthedog site.
Thanks so much.
(Reply from Andy Jenkins - The catch is Lee, every time you watch one of our videos, we take a piece of your soul.)
(Kidding…Kidding…)
Very Powerful! Great Video!
Sweet Video. I have over 8,000 MyBlogLog contacts and love social networks. I'm anxious to read your report. The video was awesome.
Michael
Wow, What a great video, there was alot of great information which will take some time to digest. Thank you for your hard work.
Hi Don & the Stompernet mavons,
Wow!
What great content.
I had a tear in my eye at the end
when Don said that there are NO secrets - just stuff you don't know yet!
Love your work.
Very sociable.
Thank you - Anita
This stuff is just so cool.
I can't thank you enough for sharing and modeling the real philosophy of "social" networking.
Thanks for all that you give to us.
Bob Cotto
Wow!This is a fantastic video. I have been using Social Marker for awhile now but not to the extent I should be. This video will make it difficult for many of us to get sleep! I look forward to the report!
What a great, professionally produced video - and so very true.
It was even better to see some of my sites featured under the "Squidoo Marketing Strategies" screenshot which showed that I hold 7 of the top ten spots in Google (it was 8 but I forgot to ping my PR5 lens over the last few days!)
Those positions come from my blogs, my technorati tags, articles in ezinearticles.com and my Squidoo lenses.
I developed a strategy called the Squidoo-Google dance which builds on the interplay between Google, blogs, Squidoo and article directories like Ezinearticles.com.
I can confirm firsthand that Stompernet is really onto something here. I am anxiously waiting for the release of Don's SMARTS report. Best wishes for 2008 - the year of social marketing (last year was embryonic!).
These videos are cram packed with usable content. Nuggets to get your brain ticking over. Easy enough for even the newest of newbies to Internet Marketing to start with.
Thanks for such great information.
Don, I've started a retail internet site with absolutely NO knowledge about how to market it. Your very informative video has made me feel comfortable in getting more sales by explaining the social marketing aspect of the internet. And I'm glad to know the warnings of true social marketing. I'm looking forward to getting the report soon and hope to get ball rolling on my finances. Thanks!
It's not very often I bother to sign up to a waiting list for a free report but this video has just blown me away.
Top job and can't wait to get my hands on the report (so to speak)
WOW!! Watching the video was absolutely exciting! In an imprssive way you proved that social marketing really is rocking. Marketers should re - think their strategies. I'll do so for sure.
I'am looking forward to the report.
Great work
Thank you.

I have watched all the videos that you have kindly given out to the community and the Social Networking video was a KNOCKOUT!
Very impressive and amazing information. There is no excuse not to act.
Keep them coming.
Regards
People like me should stop being 'busy' for a second and do what your instructions said to do. Sit down have a coffee, listen and learn, and your giving this stuff for FREE.
I am an ecommerce consultant based in Scotland and I am going to use one word for what I have just watched and learned. The word I use which you guys across the pond invented is AWESOME!!
My message for 2008 remains the same as it was in 2007/06/05 - Business owners - GET PROPERLY EDUCATED - if your going to do business online and wanting to succeed, either navigate your way here, or use us STOMPER DISCIPLES to teach you the way to succeed as we have learned from our stomping great cousins across the oceans at STOMPERNET. Keep it coming guys, many light bulbs came on from watching this video!!
Andy,
The wheels are turning! I am a first time eCommerce site builder and I was Doomed before I started. Thanks to you guys I will see you on the other side. You guys have began a new page in history. I would love to see you give Bill a run for his money! Don't lose site of the fact that most of us are still laymen. It won't be long before I go global and as a result of your resources I hope to become a prime example of "What to Do"!
The videos from you guys are just incredible, keep them coming. You offer great info for all of us.
Thanks for some excellent info in all of your videos. And for the video creation tips, too.
Look forward to the report coming soon.
I don't know if we can imagine exactly how powerful the concept of Social Marketing may become when used in wisely executed techniques.
I will be curious to see how Google reacts when they really figure out that they may no longer be the biggest game around. Will that slap become a stomp in a new reference frame ?
Thanks again
I was waiting all weekend for this video to release, just to reassure myself that web 2.0 marketing is what I thought is going to be. You guys really know your stuff!
This is the quality content I've been looking for a long time. Thanx for the the video and keep them coming!
Dontrell
Great video guys. You really know how to create a buzz around a new product.
Your whole launch is a case in point of the power of social media.
I must say it looks like blogs and these social networking sites are doing it big on Google. I will certainly begin to use these powerful tools in my internet marketing when I am promoting my websites on internet. My eyes have really been opened for these possibilities.
Thanks for sharing

Awesome information!! This has been very eye opening! I can't wait to get the email!
Wow great video, I am a graduate of the thirtyday challenge and this is the perfect next step.
A great overview and insight to Web 2.0 marketing strategy.
This going natural series is excellent and if ever I had any uncertainties about Web 2 I don't now. Cant wait for the next part.
Stompernet you are the business
What a fantastic video to watch for a young e-commerce adventurer. Site rank has been a concern for me and I have been looking for interesting ways to get the name of my business out there and bettering my sales.
However, I'll read the full report before making a move. But, that doesn't mean I don't have ideas fermenting as I type this!
Great video! Looking forward to more of them!
Nice video…some of them things you mention in your video I'm currently engaged in, so I'm to see the current potential of social bookmark.
This is awesome great job!Can/t wait to get the report!
To Andy and all his crew: First of all I want to say thank you! You people are nothing short of awsome in everything and I mean everything you do. I admit it..I'm an over 50 newbie, who has started and quit and re-started since I was 37 when there was only 640K available. I have not accomplished a whole lot, but I've seen a whole lot..and you people are the best I've ever seen. With your wisdom, I will, change that not accomplished a whole lot completely around to getting something done with purpose and meaning. Once again…Thank you! Larry Brown
This is very timely information. I am just launching a new business site with one unique product and this is going to add a big punch. I am thankful for your willingness to share what you have learned.
Gentleman:
This has been an excellent, informative lesson. Looking forward to the report and putting your suggestions into use.
Kindest regards,
Professor Click
I thoroughly enjoyed the video and the content is excellent and certainly of a quality thast most people would be selling it as a oroduct.
Totally thought provoking.
Thank you.
This IS by far the best one in the whole Going Natural 2.0 series so far. Thank you Andy Edmonds for all that you have done so far, looking for more great work from you in the future! I see why you esteemed StomperNet faculty member Don Crowther! Maybe he’s been in the secret StomperNet labs for the past several months, wrapping his arms around this whole “social media” thing we have heard about, but it’s great to see him come out to the light and enlighten us! Thank-you Don for uncovering the TRUTH about some of the biggest myths out there. Social Media sites ARE filled with viable prospects. Social Media site visitors DO spend money online. Social media sites are NOT just a fad. Thank-you for sharing your incredible results from your experiments, and your research. Thank-you for taking the time to figure out the SMART way to leverage this opportunity!
Feel F.R.E.E. to call me with any questions.
I look forward to working with you.

Thank you so much for all the outstanding content in these videos, especially the one on social marketing. I am so excited to get a hold of this teaching. I feel like I know where to start now.
Hopefully, it will help me to reach my goals in my richly scented candle store and the other products I am selling.
Please keep it coming!
Thanks.
Hey, I just needed to say keep up the GREAT work, I don't think I've every attentively sat in front of my computer for 50 minutes watching a video (and I'm a HEAVY computer user).
I like how, if you leave the video that you're watching, when you go back it remembers exactly where you left off. ;-).
I was poking around at some of the sites that you were speaking about in the video and I didn't switch my tab. But when I went back it knew where I left.
Long story short that REALLY made me realize that you guy think of everything!
Excellent video skills also.
My nerd is showing, but it was Spiderman that gave us the "great power/great responsibility" line, not Superman.
Nevertheless, this was a great video!
(Reply from Andy Jenkins - DARN! :o) We were hoping that our "geek" population was low enough to skate by on that one. We'll change it once we've had more than 3 hours sleep in a row.)
Just watched the video, Great Stuff!! Can't wait to get the report for "The rest of the story." Gotta get started with all this new stuff!
I loved the video and am eagerly waiting to consume the report. I gotta get started driving traffic with this new stuff>
It just never ceases to amaze me how you guys stay out on the razor's edge. Keep it up!
uhhhh how do i get started and where do i get a real and powerful domain name, website so i can start this hmmmmm?
nonetheless this was interesting
WOW!
I am really looking forward to the repo9rt coming out Wednesday.
Great job.
Cindy
Thanks,
I have heard a lot about Web 2.0 before from many others, but this excellent presentation drove the point home. This was real, no yawning, wow entertainment.
Thanks,

Thanks so much for your advice. You guys rock! The graphics are great, the video is very entertaining and at the same time it taught me a lot about Web 2.0 technologies for my online business.
I hope you keep the flow of good content coming.

What a great video Don… thanks for the timely info on social marketing. I knew there had to be a concerted method to approach the social sector… I just didn't know it, and the stats of spending power of the socialites…wow… that is impressive. I had a feeling they had spare money to spend online, just didn't realize how much. Don, look forward to the report and any more videos you produce… (nice job on the production there).
Thanks again guys.
'till next time

Hey Guys,
I can't wait for more info on Social Marketing. Greed is a powerful motivation for anyone in online business (including me). But your videos give new insight on how to approach this strategy. I know I will be paying close attention.
Thanks,
Vixx
Looking at this one and only video at 5 p.m. german time upt to the end. What a great stuff also for old europe online marketing. I will implement your lesson into my just starting business. So whatch out the changes. It might be a european success story.
Many thank's for this great SOCIAL present. Yours Wolfgang Frenzel
Fantastic information full of valuable content. And incredibly professionally done. Entertaining to make learning fun!
Excellent!
Thanks Don for this great video. I have been using social networks and posting to social bookmarking sites for quite a long time now and know you can't be more right.
Those of you who are relatively new to social bookmarking please listen to what Don said - Do NOT abuse the bookmarking sites especially Digg and Propeller.
My Digg account got banned twice. Not because I was submitting trash but because I was submitting my staff only. You need to Digg other people's stories also. Keep it like 40:60 and you will be safe. It's crucial because if you get banned you loose all your links in Digg as they are all deleted with your account.

Excellent video! Why oh why did you have to release this now? It is going to get very busy… but I love it.
I think you are bang on! I've actually been doing this for about a week (but not to the extent that you have outlined tonight). I created a new site on Sunday 8 pm Pacific time and by Monday noon I was #6 on Google on page 1!
At the same time I've been reading everything you throw at me and watching all of the videos. It was probably video #2 that kicked me into action.
I took three weeks off work to get good at CSS, Dreamweaver, Video editing and Xara Xtreme (simply the most powerful vector graphics program on the planet) and Rapid CSS 2007. These tools along with the knowledge you've provided is going to really set me up well to take advantage of this next era.
This past month has been like my old university days all over again. I had three days last week where I crashed for the night at 4:45 am! I should also plug a this book I discovered on some material that someone sent to me… it might have been you.. but the book is fantastic! It's called "Four Hour Work Week!" by Timothy Ferriss.
I look forward to seeing your Coaching Course. If I can afford it, I will certainly be there. If the quality of it matches the quality of the free stuff… well… how can I lose?
Great work guys..and gals!!
Nick Walsh
Great ideas. I plan on doing some of this tomorrow to promote my site. I would do it now, but it's late and I'm bummed that the Buckeyes just lost to LSU. We may have lost the last two, but at least we've been in the title game 3 of the last 6 years.
Go Bucks!!!

Thanks Stompernet, Yes i agree that the people on your network can be your potential customers/client. Thanks a lot for giving us this great information.
I have just finished watching the Social Marketing video and I found it very informative, and easy and exciting to watch. Mainly I wanted to say that it is good to know how valuable these social marketing sites really are. Of course I have been hearing about them, and hesitated to spend a lot more time jumping on the bandwagon of every new trendy technique or site that came out. Hearing this new research and the information you have shared about them makes it easier to decide to take the plunge, now that I know it will be well worth my time.
I have 2 ecommerce websites and am getting ready to create another one with info-products, and none of them to date is getting enough traffic to make them profitable. I am so excited to learn all of the techniques you have shared on your videos, and especially this last one.
It's very late now, or I would jump right into creating a Squidoo lens and putting some articles on Scribd. You can bet that's what I will be doing tomorrow!
Thank you, guys, for sharing all of this information - and for free! I really wanted to be part of your Stompernet university, but because none of my sites was earning any money, it was just not in my budget. Hopefully that will change in the future!

Amazing Video! I want to thank you for the tips and techniques for social marketing.
I've already applied the tips giving and in less than a minute my digg was at #1 for the keyword. #1 NUMBER ONE! … can you hear me?. I said, #1 on Google! Beating out 300,000 sites in just SECONDS! Not hours … not minutes but Seconds. HELLO?????. Now you hear me. I'm amazed.
Thanks to Don, Andy and Stompernet.
Aloha,

I thought I knew quite a lot about Web 2.0 but obviously this article proves it is all wrong! Great article!
Check out http://www.lushable.com for more web 2.0 news
Great stuff, thanks for this.
Stomper Guys,
Just watched your lastest video. VERY Interesting! I never thought of using Social sites they way you present it. You just keep coming up with wonderful new strategies all the time.
Thanks
Darwin
WOW That movie was really a eye opener. I had thought about doing some marketing on myspace, youtube, and other sites but didn't really know where to start. Looking forward to hearing more in your Report about this new way to market. I have done yahoo and google but they add up so fast for the little guy
Great Job guys and see ya soon
Shawn from Garden Grove, California
YES!
This is too koOol!

There's a lot of truth behind this video but it is nothing ground breaking - using social media to build links and traffic has been used for at least a year.
I'm also pretty confused by the scribd part as it says by putting links within your documents you will get SE friendly links - but the example given is a word document that is loaded in a flash player - so these links aren't seen by Google.
Eitherway a good video for newbies.
HELLO DON ! TALK ABOUT EXCITMENT ITS HOT IN HERE , THIS IS THE BEST NEWS IVE HERD IN ALL MY INTERNET ENTREPRENEURSHIP MONTHS-DAYS- HOURS SECONDS YOU"VE PULLED OUT ALL THE STOPS TRULY I CANT CONTAIN MYSELF, ITS LATE BUT I CANT TURN IN YET I CAN ALMOST STAY UP TILL WEDNESDAY 9 ! THANKS TO ALL YOUR RESEARCH AND TENACIOUS WILL THIS IS WITHOUT QUESTION GOING TO BE A SUPER YEAR . HERE TO YOU IN APRECIATION VINCENT ELVIS 1/8/2008
I have just watched the video and I feel like throwing up.
The information is that good.
I feel dizzy just knowing that I don't know what you know… yet.
Great video guys, passed it around, so much traffic to be made there if done right!
Great video that makes me urge to read the report.
I'm impatient to learn how I can improve my site with more traffic!

Thanks for the great videos and keep up with the excellent work (even after the product launch).
The video has blown me away.
I am very very very impressed.
The video is very appealing and exaustive, but misses a forgotten word - "Ethics"!
It shows the general marketing strategy to follow, mentions the tools and the ways to implement the best legal practices and, yet, always respects the individual.
This is quite ethical. As this word is not mentioned there, I just wanted to bring it forward, where it could be noticed by anyone.
Best wishes to you, Don Crowther and "task force". You all well deserve Professional Success and Personal Happiness for 2008 and beyond!
PT
This is one of the best videos iv'e seen in a long time. This information would normally cost you 1000's! Thank you guys, really amazing.

Excellent "six star" video with timely information clearly explained. I also had trouble with the vid loading in Firefox AND I did and do not want use IE…. so I just cleared the Firefox cache and it played just fine. I tried to load it when it was first posted… minutes before it was an access denied page. ANY way… BIG THANK YOU!
Hey Stompernet
You guys are so hot on this! Thanks for the free info and strategies to help us get started. This is such an exciting era to be in and I'd like to thank Rich Schefren who directed me to your Social Marketing video.
Having worked for one of the fastest growing social media sites of 06 & 07, I can truly say that this is an opportunity that no-one wants to miss. And can I also add, tread carefully, like Don says DON'T DONT DON'T BULLDOZE your way into a community with spamming and trolling activity.
The community will be your media: they can build you up but set a foot wrong with them and they will kill you and all your efforts. Love them and they'll love you back.
This is ethical marketing at it's best and thanks to Stomper and Strategic Profits they're showing the way.
Looking forward to Wednesday to get my report!
Thanks again
Desiree in London
Wow, I can't believe what great guys you two are to do this great video and give it for free. I learned more in this video than I ever learned in my last 2 years in trying to increase online traffic.
It's like getting a super present for Christmas or my birthday. Thanks, Guys! I think this will be my year to get back into real networking.
Everyone should see these videos. I can't wait for your report…
Thanks so much.
Awesome! Thanks a tonne, guys. Will set to work on those strategies post haste.
@ Money from the Sky - you probably need a plug-in for Firefox (Flash?). I watched the video in FF.
I have been looking for a better way to improve my traffic. I am very impressed and hope to implement it soon.
Thanks.
Great video! I think a lot of us are tracking the social media World BUT we don't have a systematic tool to capitalize on it. I look forward to learning more.
Yes Don,
This video is the best so far.
The animations are fun to see
Your voice is full of enthusiasm and exciting.
But most of all it is so full of fantastic information I was having to replay bits to take notes.
And you have squashed my fear of trying to make a video, as I thought it would be really hard to do.
I can not find the words to Thank You enough
So I will just say
I Love you and the Stompernet team
Sandra
Although I work in adult and all these advices are more for the mainstream business, I really saw the light somehow, lol.
Oh, and I hope this video isn't going to be a step to push ppl spam the social networks…
Another great video, cant wait for the report
Fantastic Video, I was completely blown away by it. Everything was so clearly explained and I can't wait to see what's in the report.
Even I will be able to do this!!
Keep up the brilliant work.
Jane.
I found this to be very interesting and very educational. I am excited in trying my hand at this new type of Social Marketing. I am new at this and hopefully will learn to enhance my business and to help others to enhance theirs.
Barbara
Great Video! I love the strategies you are using for social media marketing. Excited to see your report!
This is one of the BEST videos I have ever seen on Social Networking. You have really really done hard work for it to convince us.
We trust you and hope your tips and suggestions will give us results.

This looks to be the best Going Natural video to date, and I can't wait to get started using Don's tips. I've had a MySpace and Facebook account for years, but haven't really known what to do with them. Now, I'm motivated to start using Social Marketing to it's fullest extent.
Thanks for the video!

How does a person, who is running an internet marketing business by him/her self capitalize on social marketing without working 24 hours a day.
It seems like there are soo many different places to go and soooo many different things to do, it's just overwhelming.
I was so happy when all this info. came my way. which came from worlwidebands I am just getting into all of this with my new website. so much info. but people like you that put out video that can actually see and here it , it's great I look forward to diving into more. I do see that social interaction is where it is and where it is going in the near future. GREAT STUFF!
Thank you
Tina
I don't do "Applause"… but Don you get a full Standing Ovation!
You've given a heads up to something new… not a rehash of everything that's been around… and the evidence was compelling.
Well done.

Hello,
I have watched the video and it really got me fired up. I am ready to take all your advice and information to systematically optimize my presence on the net. Best video that I've seen in awhile.
Thanks,
Rollie
Wow i have a short attention span but your video really made me sit and watch the entire movie. This is some really great stuff. Great job guys
Hi Don,
I just finished watching your video and have been blown by it. Hearing this new research and the information you have shared about, it has made it easier for me to take the plunge, I will definately be using your strategies I cannot wait to get my hands on the report. I have not used any of the programs you mentioned in the video. Thanks a million…
It is the best yet. I can't wait to see the report. The tip on Scribd was great.."a secret" to me but now I know.
Thanks,
Jim
It's shocking that you're giving these jewels away!
I know that the minutes spent on your awesome video today will mean that this is the year I become financially independent.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Amazing !!! Totally Amazing…
I am from the 30DC group of 2007 and have been fascinated by all this web 2.0 stuff.
It couldn't have been more timely in that my company is working on a project with a local "brick and mortar" store on this exact subject!!!
Thanks for all your tips and tricks. Looking forward to the report
Yates
Great, great content - thank you for helping us sort through the maze
What an amazing and funny video, I think Don should be on TV. What was weird was that i felt like i was in a classroom and not in the kitchen at home (that's where i really was)
I loved the fact that you gave some really actionable strategies and then calmed us down before galloping off into "social land"
Really looking forward to the report and best of luck with the launch of the coaching programme

There is no question, Stompernet is a
"class act". To Andy, Dan and the gang
"well done…(5 stars)" I look forward to the training program you are about to offer.
I do hope it is affordable for the average Joe.
Jonny
Don, I apologize for the mispelling of your name in my previous post. You are the man.
Jonny
I just finished watching the video. Although it is bit long - full 50min 38sec - it was worth the time spent.
I cannot way to see the report.
Great job!
Your increadible techniques really shakes the internet marketing world.. Bravo for StomperNet..
I have some question about Google stop word..
Do you mean it is bad to target keywords or put key title with google stop word such as the words "HOW" and "AN"..
I plan to target this keyword, "how to start an internet business" because it show 286 million search results when I typed it at http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en
Wow! Thank you so much for the free video. I have learned so much about Social marketing and can't wait to get started. I am heeding your warning, however, and doing a little research on each site before jumping in. The phrase "There are no secret, there's just stuff you don't know" was powerful. I feel you can use that in many aspects of your life. Thanks again, Vicky
Another great video. I thought I knew a lot - but thanks for the extra resources.
Awesome video guys! I totally agree that social network marketing is the wave of the future…
Peter
Really it is a great video with great techniques!
I've been getting more and more interested in the seo of things and then I got directed to Stomperblog. I must admit Wow!! You guys have it down pat. I like what I see and look forward to more good information. Keep up the good work and I'll be waiting.
I am an entrepreneur at heart and just 8 weeks ago opened my first Yahoo! ecommerce store! While researching SEO I found your video. WOW! Although I am new to the world of ecommerce, every fiber in me said you are on to a powerful trend.
I'm pleased you are leaving the *high cost* model and plan to make your Mentoring Program more financially accessible. Perhaps you will even consider offering different Mentoring Packages at different costs.
Good work folks. Thank you, Thank you. This is very exciting!
I just spend a bit of my time listening with great interest to this video. I plan to listen several more times while I take notes and digest all of this new info about social media.
My one request is for reasonable and fair cost for membership at stomper net. As a some business person along with other expenses an $80 dollar a month fee is way to high for me and other small business owners.
However I do appreciate the free information that hopefully will jumpstart me into entering the social media party. After all good manners and the desire to met new people is like throwing a party. We plan the party, games, rereshment and send out the invites. If we do it well and offer a evening full of valueable interaction with others we are all rewarded.
Thanks the 4 ideas are invaulable and I appreicate it.
Stompernet Team,
I just wanted to introduce myself and thank you for the best Social Markteting, Web 2.0 and just plain good training videos I have seen to date, "Hands Down"…
There are many top notch pros out there that I follow on a regular basis but the Going Natural Series is #1. The level of detail and the simplistic way the techiques are delivered is amazing.
*** The Production Value Alone is Worth The Price Admission! *** Oh yeah, it was FREE.
Keep it up…
PS: If you guys are still doing private training and or coaching let me know?
A fabulous video, I had noticed a certain 'buzz' about s. marketing but, never really got 'it' until now. Thanks for the insight. Top Marks. Alan
Great Video you have outdone yourselves again. Can't wait for the free report.
I always find your videos very impressive and mind expanding! Keep em coming.
WOW!! You guys at Stomper Rock!!
I really liked this video and learned a lot. Waiting to read the report.
This is a great heads up. I have taken your message to heart and am already modifying my web sites and starting my marketing campaign. Sleepless nights ahead, but worth it. What an open field. Thanks again and hurry up with more.
Nice site… I am sure it will help out my blog's popularity.
Keep up the great work!
Very good even though a bit long to watch. To break it down into smaller videos and a summary at the end of the video would make it even better.

Just like everyone else who has taken the time to watch all of these videos I've got to say WoW ! ! Thank you very much staff of StomperNet for all the insightful information.

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.!!!!!

ABSOLUTE "TOP CLASS"
NO DOUBT, WHY STOMPERNET IS THE " HOLY GRAIL"
AND LIGHT YEARS AHEAD IN THE FIELD OF IM.
THANKS GUYS,JUST YOUR FREE CONTENT HAS
BLASTED MY BUSINESS……..GOD BLESS
ANDY, BRAD AND THE STOMPERNET TEAM.
Love the video, it really states what we are doing here at monthlyvideocash.com.
Early adopters will rule this strategy!
What you teach in this video can make thousands of dollars for everyone who put it into action.
But most guys have problems acting, they just watch these videos, read the reports, they get impressed but they never do anything.
but for someone like me, it makes as much money as you really don't know what to do with it.
Thanks dude,
You're a very good motivator.
I will watch your video again,
it's really motivative.
Wow! There's no question that social interaction is the way that the Internet is going. And you guys really have it down! Great material!
Thx guys…I plan to implement this to the full extent!!!
Most impressive! Thank you so much for this content. I'm passing it on to my team.
Have you ever seen a "GROWN MAN CRY"?
This is really good stuff. I am a newbee to the Social Video Marketing online. I must say you make this so simple that a "direct mail person" -like me, realy easy to understand! Can not wait to see what else you have to share for FREE or for a any price????
Thanks a million
This is incredible.
You guys are the bomb.
I just hope that I can afford to be in the coaching program when its released.

Excellent video! It's not often I sit through a video of more than 10 minutes, but this was outstanding! Well done!
You guys are great. It's 1:00 AM and I don't think I'll get to sleep until 3:00 just thinking about the possibilities you've opened up for me and my business.
Thank you!
Hey Guys - Great Video. Can we embed the video in our own blog?

How does this reconcile with other "expert" research?
e.g. Aaron Wall\'s piece found here > http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2008/01/08/what-is-social-media-traffic-worth
You guys at stomper net are always pulling it off! well done on a great informative video. Your rightly mention that social marketing is the next big thing for us online marketing folks.
58 minutes of pure information (it would have taken me a few days to get through this in written form)
Thank you.
Hi Guys,
Boy oh boy, watching this video is far better than any drug or stimulant on the suface of the world. My system is in top gear, and I am just trying to control my energies.
Men, it back to the drawing board to modify my plans and strategies for my online business.
Thanks a million guys, you gat me hooked now.
Hi Andy,
I had researched on the potential of social marketing before, particularly blogging and squidoo but none was jam packed with so much insight and usable information. Well done !!
I watched the video twice and forwarded the link to a couple of close friends which where blown away. Hope the competition doesn't get to know about this video
nice one don,
this video came at just the right time for me as im setting up a new e biz
jon
Thanks so much Andy & Brad & Dan & Team! Was I shocked? Yes! Was I scared? Yes!
If you visit our site - http://www.poshwoman.com - we have really spent a good time developing and testing it with a low budget, trying to figure out so many things that your team covered under a few minutes in your video.
In fact, web 2.0 has been like a new frontier, which we found difficult to either understand or use. It looks so wide and complex, yet this single video just simplifies the whole issue and I am sure I will use every bit of info here to take our business to the next level. I have been taking notes and I just wish I can gain access to more info about some of the things mentioned briefly. For example Dan mentioned that there are over 1982 social network sites one can take advantage of, and he was only able to show strategies using just a few of them.
I am going to watch this video a few times more.
Wow! guys thanks so much for sharing these info with the public!
Fantastic information, and beautifully presented. Simply some of the best marketing info on the net. Thank you for the enlightenment.
Absolutely amazing and surprisingly simple

absolutely awesome video…i've been boring anyone who would listen about squidoo for some time now (http://www.squidoo.com/lensmasters/Debs) …but it looks like squidoo is just the tip of the iceberg! can't thank you enough for all the great work you guys are doing!
I decided to try my hand with a site similar to facebook, KoolKonnects.com and Fribblers.com, both are in development and I have not done much yet both are #1 in Google.
Awesome video, I look forward to the report to see how I can best use these new websites.
Excellent Videos. Excellent Info. Well done
Thanks for all the great videos and tips!
We're ready to stomp on our competition now!
We think that we've just had a Eureka moment! We are still very very very green when it comes to marketing online - infact we know diddly sqwat. We always thought we'd be wasting our time trying to compete with the big guys, but you have cleared a path for us! We're really hopeful of what your fantastic help will bring. Thanks and looking forward to the report. Gary (London)
W O W ! !
That presentation was superb. full of great ideas on how to start a new life in 2008!.
Uncomparably unselfish, sharing a gold-mine to chosen people. You are blessed and you really know how to share those blessings.
This is the real meaning of social marketing, planting the right seed in good soil and expecting a bountiful harvest.
More power and continue doing the right-thing. God bless to all.

Gift Baskets On The Go By T.D. Pearce
Great! I watched the whole thing, normally I would have dozed off, but your videos are so entertaining and informative! I'm thinking of how to use the information with my current sites.
Hello all,
Glad that I am here. John Reese mentioned you in his latest newsletter and highly recommended your social marketing guide.
This site is sure great — and I will be coming for more ideas.
Thanks
I have one comment, i watched the video, i see that facebook got a 1400 ROI, however, roi for traffic is nothing special. I can generate 1 million clicks to my website spendin less than 250 dollars. However, they will not lead sales that are any worthwhile. Who says that the facebook results provide larger PROFIT than google and that is my question. Did google lead to less profit or facebook, cause that is the bottom line.
WOW!
I'm amazed, impressed, blown away….etc.
I'm a newbie to all this and I'm on information overload for sure. Can't wait to learn more.
Mate, this is Jim Yaghi here from Australia. I do a lot of Network Marketing training online and one of my biggest focuses has been on lead generation. Until recently all my teaching has been about using PPC marketing and SEO.
Naturally I've been following your videos closely and learned a lot of stuff that has helped me and my team to get incredible results on Google's search.
But this video is killer. It tops the lot.
There's a lot of ridiculous guides to marketing on social networks and I've been trying to find something that really shows how it's done.
Your video is packed full of information that really shows you how to use social networks or web 2.0 to market one's business and generate leads.
I'm going to go apply this right now and come back and report some massive results.
Keep up the great work.
Jim Yaghi
Just watched your video on social marketing,I will have to watch it again as my head has just exploded,it's so full of great info,I will be trying to use these strategies as soon as I have read the report.
Thanks to all at Stompernet.
Thank you Don and the StomperNet team for being so generous with the wonderful free information and videos that you've made available to us.
I'm barely making anything as yet, but I'm pretty confident that by using what you teach, that others and myself will be able to start making great profitable changes in the near future.
Please keep up your brilliant unselfish work!
Best wishes and warm regards.
Anthony
There are no secrets to anything, there are just things you don’t know, yet! This is an outstanding video about Social Marketing. Congrats!
Teodor
Great Video.
And yes, I was "there" along with Al Gore, as an ISP, before there was such a thing as even a browser.
This is surely the next, Next Big Thing. Great work! My mind is racing on how to best put your concepts and techniques, along with my 18 years of Internet and marketing skills and abilities to work in truly taking advantage of this exciting opportunity.
P.S. Are you guys hiring?
If not, I'm sure you and many other organizations will be Googling and/or Social Marketing to add individuals to their teams that understand/embrace and can implement such strategies on behalf of their companies.
"Even beyond my experience and expertise in Internet, Sales and Marketing - I see my Drive, Dedication and self-motivated Desire to be the very best at that which I do, as being key to my continued success."
I listened intently and enjoyed every word of this amazing video. I have always wanted to post on the social sites but did not know how and now, I am pumped up and ready to get on the move. Awaiting for the report anxiously but where is it? It is already 1/9/08!!
Waiting anxiously for the report to show up today. Very impressed by the quality, expertise and free tips rendered by you all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I like the way you want to help others like me to do good on the internet. The power of helping and not putting your ego in the front.
That is real love, to share your wealth of informaton with us. Keep up your good work because you will be rewarded in the end

You have provided a plethora of information, almost too much to ingest. I must take an issue with your presentation style. I spent 50 minutes watching the video, another 30 minutes scanning the pdf document all the time wondering "What's the Catch?" You hinted, you mentioned, you poked around, and NO (what's the word?) you never sprung the trap. Does this type of marketing work for you? I don't want to say that I wasted time, but if you are trying to sell me something, let's see it. I am always trying to sell something, something OK http://www.liberty-flag.com - I did it!
BTW} I lived just 3 miles from the tornado's you spoke about in your report. NW Kenosha now I'm in central WI

This is honestly amazing… I love the energy put into the video and the content is outstanding… Awesome work!
HI,
The information you are providing is sensational. It is too much for me to assimilate in one sitting! I am just getting started. Such a newbie that I don't have a web site yet. I have my domain name, so far. I knew there were strategies, but a lot of it is 'greek' to me. I can't pay big bucks to have a web site done for me. I want to learn from the brightest and the most successful. A lot of the jargon is hard for me to understdand. The most difficult is how to script your pages so the search engines don't pass you by. I can't quite get my blonde brain cells wrapped around the concept. That was a video or two ago. Anyway, I am curious about the coaching program. I am hoping it won't be over priced, as to prohibit the new kids on the block, who are just getting started from partaking of this excellent adventure.
I am a certified health coach, love what I do and I might add, I am good at it. I need a web site to help me on my quest.
Judy Ritsema
(Reply from Don Crowther: Judy, would you be interested if I told you that you could use some of the strategies we're going to discuss without even owning a web site? And that you could create a flood of people contacting you directly from your social media work? Now, that said, I would strongly recommend that you develop a website, so that we can start creating search engine rankings for it. But if you're not feeling ready for a site right now, you could actually build an entire business without ever having one.)
HI,
I am seeking out Don Crowther. You replied to my comment about web site building. When you said that we will be discussing strategies for creating contacts, do you mean the coaching program? I would like to do a web site. If I just need to go do it and worry about how it is presented, then I will go get one started. I think that is what I need. Where to start? If I can use these strategies while learning about web sites, I would definitely appreciate with much gratitude, any assistance during the interim of building my business. Please, give me some suggestions or actions to begin whilst I journey toward my goals.
Thanks for being here!
Judy
Keep up the great videos.
We've been incorporating alot of your
information into our Joint Venture Social Network, currently Beta. We look forward to your next video.
~Leah and Bill
Great video, there is just so much new information you are sharing.
I enjoyed the video, thanks. I'll post a blurb on my websites resources page - I appreciate collecting useful information to share with others. For my homework, I will try 2 new things this week - scribd.com and squidoo.com, and thanks for the tips!
This IS by far the best one in the whole Going Natural 2.0 series so far. Thank you Andy Edmonds for all that you have done so far, looking for more great work from you in the future! I see why you esteemed StomperNet faculty member Don Crowther! Maybe he’s been in the secret StomperNet labs for the past several months, wrapping his arms around this whole “social media” thing we have heard about, but it’s great to see him come out to the light and enlighten us! Thank-you Don for uncovering the TRUTH about some of the biggest myths out there. Social Media sites ARE filled with viable prospects. Social Media site visitors DO spend money online. Social media sites are NOT just a fad. Thank-you for sharing your incredible results from your experiments, and your research. Thank-you for taking the time to figure out the SMART way to leverage this opportunity!
