A Huge Announcement from Brad Fallon

What a month! Jumping in as the CEO of StomperNet just one month ago has been like jumping into the cockpit of a 747. Mid-air.

But that's okay. I kind of like it. Actually I like it a lot. I like to work fast and I talk even faster. I love getting things done, like, yesterday. I especially love building and growing companies at lightning speed.

So that's why – one month into my stint as StomperNet's CEO – I'm happy to announce a little growth spurt in our Faculty ranks.

Try seven new faculty members (see their bios below).

Some of these names you will definitely recognize, some might be new to you, but all of them are incredible. We are thrilled to have them join us and we are excited about the enthusiasm they have already shown. (This particular airplane ride's about to get a lot more fun.)

Talk soon,
Brad Fallon

Dave Taylor, of AskDaveTaylor.com fame and Intuitive Systems. He's baaacck! As one of our exceptionally popular original faculty members, Dave is back from his StomperNet Faculty hiatus. Dave is an absolute expert at helping your company learn how to grow through savvy use of business blogging and associated social networks and new media, business or technical topics, leading a class of adult learners, or writing a business or technical book for neophytes, my central focus remains the same: to explain complex concepts and technologies in a way that lets you gain insight into the subject. His most recent books are The Complete Idiot's Guide to Growing Your Business with Google (Penguin/Alpha) (widely hailed as a must-read by business experts), Teach Yourself Unix System Administration in 24 Hours (Sams/Macmillan) (which focuses on three operating systems: Red Hat Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X), Solaris 9 for Dummies (Wiley), Learning Unix for Mac OS X Panther (O'Reilly), Wicked Cool Shell Scripts (NoStarch), and Creating Cool Web Sites (Wiley).

Erik Stafford – Described by Ross Goldberg as "…the best person I know when it comes to helping newbies, guiding them into a business model that works, and teaching the basics of internet business in a way that can be understood."

 Erik formed Stafford Marketing, LLC in late 2006, launched The Faster Webmaster in early 2007, and has been helping people get started building online businesses ever since. He looks forward to conducting site reviews for Stompers, especially focusing on copy, design, and sales funnel (magic offer) strategies.

Alan Bechtold – Alan's been in publishing for over 30 years and been online since before the real "internet" existed with online bulletin boards. He's a self-described " A jack of all trades and a master of info-publishing and marketing." His primary focus in StomperNet will be teaching creative writing for content, info product creation, and copywriting.

Melanie Benson Strick – Melanie's a brilliant marketer specializing in business growth, team building, and breaking through the 6 figure area into 7, 8, and beyond. Melanie really knows her stuff. She's known as The Million Dollar Lifestyle Business Coach because she knows first-hand how to build a successful, thriving, freedom-based company with her secret weapon — LEVERAGE. With over 12 years in corporate America and eight years as a business owner, Melanie works exclusively with entrepreneurs who are ready for a “sustainable” lifestyle business. Melanie’s clients, who are typically coaches, consultants, authors, speakers, trainers, service professionals and information marketers, average a 172% revenue increase while creating more time for living their dream lifestyle.

Vin Montello – Vin's the brilliant copywriter behind some of the greatest successes on Clickbank. His copy is some of the best we've ever seen. And he's excited to help Stompers make their copy some of the best their customer's have ever seen.

David Wilkinson – Finally, we'd love to introduce a faculty member who can only be described as a "phenom." He's a 15-year-old super affiliate from the U.K. who makes five figures per month and he's still in high school. (Think you might be able to learn something about affiliate marketing from him.)
