What is an opportunity?

Stupid question? No really, let's try to define it.

I'd say it's the prospect for one of two things:

Either gain. Or avoidance of pain.

And, of course, an opportunity is time-sensitive. It comes and goes. The whole scarcity deal.

I'm not the type to beat around the bush, so let me come right out with the fact that I have an opportunity for you, buried right in this blog post.

I think it's a solid opportunity, but hey, that's just me. I don't like to "sell" people on opportunities I offer. The kind of people  I like to surround myself with, usually recognize a good opportunity, and jump on it, before it disappears.

Not that it is I who make the opportunity disappear. It's just in the nature of the beast. These constellations that form opportunity aren't always under our control. In fact, most of the time, they are serendipitous. I'm a strong believer in that.

Take David Wolfe, Len Foley, Daniel Vitalis, and Mike Adams, for example. Amish and I had a chance to meet face-to-face with all of these guys this past weekend in Atlanta. Even if you don't know who these guys are (you should!), the point is, we jumped on a plane and went. We seized an opportunity when we saw it.

[If you remember, we're helping David Wolfe's Sun Food business, and his membership site operated by Len Foley. It's one of those weird "hobbies" that Amish and I can afford to spend time on, ever since we've put our Pay-Per-Click 2.0 business on cruise control with HexaTrack PRO.]

Before I explain the opportunity I have for you, let me explain why our Atlanta get-together was so unique, anyone –including you!– would have jumped on it right away:

• David Wolfe seems to be more than your next nutrition "guru"; people literally go nuts over this guy wherever he speaks. Freaks us out a little that we're now working with him, "on the side" so to speak, building his massive raw food business www.sunfood.com.
• Len Foley is one of those elusive super internet marketers out there, best known as owner of dozens of successful membership sites, and viral video maker. As a raw foodist, he spread the superviral video "The Bionic Burger" on YouTube. Look it up! Len charges tens of thousands of dollars upfront before he'll build your membership site.
• Daniel Vitalis (shown here holding a medicinal mushroom), calls himself an herbal tonic and elixir master. We think rightfully so; we tried his concoctions. He runs www.elixircraft.com, and yes, we're into that weird kind of stuff.
• Mike Adams (tall dude), another one of these behind-the-scenes guys that few have ever heard of. But how does a membership base of 1.2 million subscribers at his site nutritionnews.com sound?

We're not at 1.2 million members yet with HexaTrack, but comparing membership sizes is not what this Atlanta meeting was about. It was about the opportunity to meet, and exchange value. Every good opportunity means you get at least as much out of it as the other guy.

(Thank God we don't have 1.2 million HexaTrack members; as you remember our servers melted down a couple weeks ago with just 8,000 members.. The ghosts from that meltdown, are by the way, the reason why the opportunity that I have for you is so, umm, timely…)

"Okay the suspense is unbearable. Larry what is the opportunity for me?"

My development director Jeffery gave me a recommendation the other day: No more new HexaTrack users, or the server overwhelm from last week is going to happen again. And I'd rather pull the plug than stand for another service outage again.

See, I don't like to apologize for screwups. I like to avoid screwups in the first place. Amish is too nice to make heads roll when necessary; I have no problem with it. So I'm taking Jeffery's recommendation very seriously. 8,000+ members is enough, so we will freeze HexaTrack membership status as of Monday, June 9, 2008. I don't care if some people will be butthurt about this. Leave it Larry to always do what has to be done.

That means:

• After the freeze, all current membership accounts will continue to get support; in fact much more so, now that we can take a break from marketing HexaTrack
• However, no new membership signups, not FREE nor PRO (that's right, you can't even offer us money to take you on)
• No upgrades from HexaTrack FREE to PRO. That means if you decide to let this pass and stay with a FREE account (the account level with limited features and no PPC 2.0 training), it will stay at that level until we re-open (which could be months).

The reverse is true as well: If you read this before 12 noon Pacific Time on Monday June 9th, you may manage to sneak into one of the last PRO 2.0 membership slots we're accepting now.

And to make good on our prior promise of a gift from us to you for the long server downtime last month…

 

…we're offering HexaTrack PRO 2.0 for just $1 for the first month, plus we waive the $50 set-up fee — this weekend only! Click here to sign up for a buck and use the coupon code: bestweekendever (Offer ends Monday June 9, 12 noon Pacific / 3 pm Eastern)

So it's official… you can now get into HexaTrack PRO 2.0 for just a buck, and with your $1 trial membership, get our full Pay-Per-Click 2.0 training delivered to you month after month, in form of:

• Training videos
• PDFs
• Interactive software

We call Pay-Per-Click 2.0 (PPC 2.0), or "the art and science of getting riduclously low per-click prices and ludicrously high conversions." It's done by combining traditional Google Adwords (or other traffic sources) with Web 2.0 technologies such as video, social networking, social bookmarking, blogging, and so on. Join the HexaTrack PRO 2.0 tribe and you'll see. Hey it's only a buck, damnit!

So here's the hard timeline for this $1 offer (and the subsequent account freeze):

Thursday June 5, 2008: Price structure changes from $97 to $1 for the first month (no set-up fee; subsequent months are $147). Use the coupon code: bestweekendever

Thursday - Sunday: Amish and I have an awesome value video for you which is all about the inner transformation that we are really all about… on the surface, the video is about nutrition… but on a deeper level, it's about the mental junk food you're addicted to.

(Shall you too convert from a follower, dreamer and "biz-opper" to a true Internet marketer that takes charge of his life and his destiny, by taking advantage of the connections between things…)

Monday, June 9, 2008: All offers will be yanked, no new HexaTrack FREE or PRO for anyone. Instead, there will be a waiting list, for the time after our next server upgrade, when we're prepared to take on more users…

P.S. Please comment below on this offer. Fair? Too little? Too much? Remember my definition of an opportunity is that you get at least as much out of the bargain as the other party, if not more. HexaTrack PRO is only a buck for the first month this weekend. I think that fits the definition of "you getting the better end of the deal". Nuff said. Join our tribe here, before we close memberships and don't forget your coupon code: bestweekendever
