Sorry For The Delays...

Hello All,

I am sorry about the delays in getting back to the blog, but I have been quite busy trying to get everything put together for the new course. It is not done yet, but should be relatively shortly. I will keep you all posted on the progress and let you know the exact day that I am going to release it.

Those of you watching this blog will have the first shot at the course and a "DISCOUNTED" price, as you have all been great with your comments and feedback. I will wait about 3-4 days before I post the course to the public.

A lot of you have been asking what the price will be for the new course. I can assure you that it will NOT be expensive. When I say "expensive", I mean that it WILL be less than $300. Don't let that number scare you. I just threw it out there. I am still waiting to see what my cost is going to be for fulfillment.

Anyways, back to work. Have lots to finish to make this course complete, and I also have all of these customers knocking down my door (actually calling on my phone all the time)... So you can imagine the amount of work I have to do.

I thank you all very much for keeping up with me on this, and for your patience with me also.

The Challenge Is Over....How did I do???

Well. The challenge is OVER. Did I make $30,000???? No. After figuring out the expenses and such, I made a total of $19,231. So I was quite a bit short of the $30,000. I am quite happy with the results though, as my business has increased IMMENSELY!!! I have literally gotten a FLOOD of business over the last two weeks and may actually have to hire some people to do some of the work for me. As it stands right now, I have over 632 Large Ticket items lined up that I need to get all the information on.

I am working on getting all the results of this challenge compiled. It will take me about 2 weeks to put it all together. It will take an additional 2 weeks to have the first draft done of the complete system. I am sorry if that seems like a long time, but to make the workbooks and videos and everything else (such as templates and contracts and forms), takes a while. On top of that, I have a TON of clients now to keep happy.

I really do want to thank all of you for your continued support and motivational thoughts and words. I really do hope that I can help some of you to become financially independent in the near future. Like I said, this won't make you a millionaire, but it CAN make a decent income. Working only a few hours a week, it is possible to make $3,000 or more a month. Yes, there is work involved, and yes there is other investments involved. You WILL NOT find a business out there that has NO OVERHEAD. It is just not possible. You have to advertise, you have to do the leg work, you have to DO SOMETHING, to GET SOMETHING.

I should have the introductory video completed by next weekend. I will let you all know. From there, I will have a series of videos that will show other aspects of this business and what it can do for you.

Thank you all very much,

Marc Whealdon

Tick Tock, Tick Tock...Time Is Counting Down...

Hello All,

Just another update here. Things are drawing to an end for this 30 day challenge, and I think that I have done quite well so far. I have about 4 days left for the challenge and to date, I have not made the $30,000, but I have made about $21,000. Not too bad for a months work. I will have proof of earnings and everything in the videos. I am still having the videos completed. I did not want to put out any of the videos until the challenge was done. That way, I can show what I did over the 30 days and what the outcome was.

I do have to say, that it has opened my eyes to the true possibilities of this business and has motivated me to work even more. I have met some great people and have made many very valuable contacts through this challenge. I have had clients from Germany to Los Angeles,CA. I even now have some from Australia. So that goes to show that this can be global.

I will be completely revamping the "How to Become A Professional Locator" manual to be a complete training course. People will have to opportunity to work for themselves and make a very good income, or possibly work "with" me and be an associate of my company. The new guide will actually be a complete training system with books, forms, contracts, DVD training videos, checklists and templates. I think that this has to be one of the best "Home Business" opportunities to come along in quite some time. I do not just say that since it it my business, but I can actually PROVE that it works.

This challenge has given me a better understanding of my own business and what can be accomplished with just a little work and perseverance. When I started this challenge, I did not use ANY of my current clients. All of this was done from NOTHING. I used no money out of my pocket to start this challenge and to date, have not had to pay anything out. (except for some gas money and time). I will have some bills coming in later this month, but that is part of the beauty of this business. You can start with nothing and not be charged for work done until almost a month later. That way, the money that you make, pays for your expenses.

It may take me some time to put the new Training Course together, and have it ready for shipping, but I will have a couple of the videos up very soon that will prove the income made and give some basic information about the business.

Anyone who purchased my ebook will receive the updated version free of charge. Once the updated version is complete and ready to ship, anyone purchasing the Course will have to pay the new price for the Business Training package, which has not been determined yet, as I have to figure what my costs are going to be for publishing and such.

Even though I have not made the full $30,000, I still think that making about $21,000 in a month is pretty good. I think in the last 20 some days, I have spent about 25 hours actually working. I will have to check my records for the exact amount of time that I spent working though. Most of that time was in the first two weeks. Once you have your client base, you can probably work about 5 hours a week and still make a great income.

I will keep you all posted as to when the videos will be up and running. I will also let you all know when the new Training Package is done.

Here's to $30,000 in 30 days....(or at least $21,000)...lol

Update for July 31, 2007 (9 days left)...

Hello All,

Things are going pretty well, I may not make the $30,000, but I know that I will have at least $19,000 in NET profit. I am finding that having to rely on others has made things a little difficult. Everyone wants stuff CHEAP. I can understand that, but it does make things a little more difficult. Last week, I did a little over $24,000 in gross sales, so that means that last week alone, I made $2,400+ in my pocket. I do have someone that wants 25 of the 2006 Pete's that I have available, but we are still negotiating on price per unit. If that pans out before the 9th Of August, then I will have reached my goal.

Most of this challenge has been quite interesting and has definitely shown that it IS possible to make $30,000 in 30 days. My main setbacks have been relying on others. Scheduling and such to meet with potential clients and such. So for the first week to week and a half, I was working on obtaining clients. When I finally acquired the necessary clients, it was all ready almost 2 weeks into this challenge. So I only had another 16 days to make the income point of the challenge. I think that I am doing quite well considering the timeframe. I said that I would start with NOTHING, and I did. Even making a couple thousand dollars a week is a good income, but I do want to try to reach the goal of $30,000 in 30 days. Well, back to work.

Keep an eye out for the NEW AND IMPROVED "How To Become A Professional Locator". It is now going to be a complete home study course on building a profitable business from home with step-by-step manuals, DVD's, Forms, Workbooks, Check Lists, and much more. This will be coming out after the challenge is done and all of the videos have been done and edited and put to DVD.

Here's To $30,000 in 30 days,

Update for July 25, 2007

Hello all,

Another update. Time is counting down. I do think that I have enough business now to do the $30,000 but I think that it will take another week or so to collect all of the money. Things are looking great and I honestly do not see a slowdown in the business that I am generating.

Another thing, I do all of this WITHOUT any advertising. The only advertising I do is the actual sales of the items. I am thinking about doing some radio ads that may draw in even more business, but as of right now, I have over $3,000,000 in business lined up. I think that I could get everything sold, but not all of that in the 30 days that this challenge is for. But even so, $300,000 in a couple of months is a GREAT income. I will still keep everyone posted as to the outcome of my challenge. If it is ACTUAL cash received, then I would have to say that I will be around $10-15,000 mark for the 30 days.

Here's to $30,000 in 30 days,

Update for July 22, 2007

Hello All,

Well, time is ticking and things are going pretty good. I think that I can reach my goal, but I am not sure if I will actually have the "cash-in-hand" by the 30 day mark. I know that I will have enough of the sales completed to reach my goal, but it may take another week before I get the actual money.

I have a ton of things to do over the next week, and I just hope that I have enough time to do it all. To make $30,000 in 30 days, does take some work. If it was easy, everyone would be making that kind of money. I never said that it would be easy, and, in all actuality, it is really not that hard. It just takes time and effort to put everything together to make it work.

I will continue to keep you all posted of my progress.

Just a Quick Update...

Hello all,

Just a quick update as to how things are going. I have yet another account that I will be meeting with tomorrow morning. I will keep you posted on how that goes as well. I was wrong about the trucks in an earlier post...I initially thought that he had 12...but in truth, there are 33 2006 Peterbilts and 4 2007. so that is 37 tucks total.

I also have a whole bunch of other accounts to handle too. In total, since I started this challenge, I have acquired 21 accounts with clients. I have only met with 3 so far, but I will meet with the rest of them this week and next week. Busy, busy, busy...

I do not foresee an end to the amount of business that I have been able to drum up since this challenge started. I, myself, am amazed at the responses that I have gotten from potential clients when I speak with them. None have turned me down yet.\

Anyways, I will keep you all posted.

Just Got a New Account....

Hello all,

I just acquired a new account today. I have been asked to find buyers for twelve (12) 2006 Peterbuilt Trucks. Each one sells for between $78,000 and $85,000. As most of you know all ready, that would mean a possible $93,600 in my pocket.

I also have another account that I will be gathering the information on tomorrow. I will let you know how that goes. I am still having some problems with the videos, but I promise you all that I will have them soon. Sorry for the delays in the videos, but I am still learning myself.

Things are looking great at this point as long as I can find the time necessary to list all of these items. If all goes well, I will be on track to possibly make about $100,000+ but I am not sure yet. I may have most of the sales completed in the 30 days, but I am not sure if I will have all the money collected within that time. It may be a week or so later for all the funds to find their way into my hands.

I will continue to keep you all posted on the progress and I think this is going to turn out quite well. If I can pull off this $30,000 in 30 days, then I will continue to try and reach that goal every month.

Here's to $30,000 in 30 days,

Go Ahead And Leave Your Comments and Suggestions

Hello All,

For those of you who are watching this blog, please feel free to leave any comments and suggestions that you may have. I didn't notice that I had the comments moderated. That has been changed now.

Things are going very well and I will start to see results this week. I have a couple of appointments on Monday that may turn out to be quite well. I will have some videos for everyone very soon.

What Started This Callenge???

Hello all,

Just to let you know, the thing that started this whole challenge is the release of my home-business ebook "How To Become A Professional Locator". It is a step-by-step guide to becoming a professional locator and make your living online.

I wanted to prove that this REALLY works. No B.S. I will show that just about anyone can make a good income with this business. If you would like to check out a copy of our ebook, please go to www.eprolocator.com

Keep a watchful eye on here as I will be posting some videos very soon. These videos will be proof that this works. I truly think that you will be surprised at how easy this is to do.

Thing Are Going Great...

Hello all,

Today is a GREAT day!!!! I just got off the phone with a gentleman that has almost 5,000 items for me to sell for him. Everything from Cushman Scooters to Carnival equipment. I think I may have just made my $30,000. Motorhomes, corvettes, roller coasters, kids rides, concession trailers, cushman tracksters and scooters. I meet with him on Monday to sign the necessary paperwork and get all the information together. I will let you know how things go.

I should have the videos done VERY soon. I had to buy a new charger for the camera that I rented as it did not come with one and the rental place could not find it either. But I will get them done soon.

Update for Day 3...

Hello all,

Update for Day 3...

Well, today I have found another $134,365 in gross items. So that will bring my total to $261,985 Gross. Now that may seem that I am very close to my goal, but it's not. I figure that I have to find another $200,000+ in Gross Items to allow for items that do not sell. I will be posting most of these items this weekend, so I will know the outcome in about 2 weeks.

I will continue locating items to sell even if I go over the $30,000. Now don't get me wrong, this is not easy. Yes, I can make on average about 5 to $6,000 a month, but to make this amount in 30 days is really going to be a test of my marketing and salesmanship. It is not hard work, just wondering how time is going to play into this.

I know that this is not completely IM, but since all the sales are done online and since all of my work is handled online, it does fall into that realm. I provide a service as a home-based business. The products that I sell and locate for people are items just the same, just because I do not sell ebooks, or have 20 mini-sites to sell affiliate products from, does not mean that this is not internet marketing. I don't feel that the product matters, but the outcome and the venue used to sell. We are all trying to "sell" on the internet. That is what IM is.

Well, I have to go do some more work.

Here's to $30,000 in 30 days,

DAY 2....Off I Go Again...

Well, this is the start of Day 2. I am hoping to collect enough information today to net me $5,000. As you have seen from Day 1, I all ready have enough information to possibly net me about $4,700. So if I reach my goal today...that would mean that I will have a net of $9,700. Almost a third of the way there in 2 days. That would be great.

I will not know the outcome of this until a little over a week from now. But I am going to keep adding to it even if I go over the $30,000 mark as long as I still have time left. I will spend about 8 hours today collecting information and making my contacts. Hopefully, I will be able to hold it out. I did not sleep last night so I am pretty tired all ready, but hey, who needs sleep (yet anyways...lol)

Here's to $30,000 in 30 days,

End of Day 1...Results Are Good So Far...

Hello All,

Update for Day 1,

Well, at the end of the day, I have enough products lined up to make me a net of $4,700. Now, I won't actually know if that will be the outcome of todays work, until about 1 week from now, but it is a good start. Tomorrow I will do the same, but will line up even more products. I will continue to do this every day for the remaining 29 days of this challenge.

I do not have video of todays work, but I will get video done of the remaining days. I am sorry, but I did not have someone to run the video while I was doing the work. I have someone lined up to do the video now though, so it should prove to be quite interesting.

Here's to $30,000 in 30 days,

Marc Whealdon

Things Are Looking Good So Far...

Hello all,

Just a quick update, I just spent a couple of hours gathering some data and if all goes well, I found enough data to net me about $4,500. Not bad for a couple of hours work. I am getting back to it and maybe I can find enough to net me about $10,000 today alone.

Now don't get me wrong, it will be easy to make the first $10,000 after that, it will be more difficult. Because I will be running on overdrive to fit everything into a 24 hour day. (Actually it will be more like about a 10 hour day).

Anyways, I am on my way to the $30,000 goal and have 29 more days to go.

Here's To $30,000 in 30 days,

Marc Whealdon

It's Go Time....Today's The Start...

Well, today is the start of my challenge. Getting a late start as I overslept, but I guess that is ok. Most of today I will be collecting data to work with. I will let you all know my results this evening. I figure I have to collect enough data today to net me $1,000. Actually, every day for the next 30 days, I have to do the same. Some days it may be more, some days it may be less.

Well, off I go. I have to get busy.

The Challenge.....

Hello All,

My name is Marc Whealdon, and I am going to prove that just about anyone can make money online starting from NOTHING.

I am going to try to make $30,000 in 30 days. This is the challenge that I have taken. Over the next 30 days from today, July 10, 2007, I will be video taping my progress in making $30,000 in 30 days.

I will start with nothing but my video camera and this blog. I will keep my progress updated on this blog so that you may follow along. When the 30 days are up, I will post my results. I will be posting updates as to my progress on a regular basis, but at the end, I will show how much I actually made. It may be more, or it may be less. We will just have to see how well I do.

I do not have any special training, and I do not have a bunch of merchandise laying around that I can sell quickly. I am starting with just some basic sales and computer knowledge, nothing special.

I will be using a mixture of selling venues such as eBay and various other sales venues online. I will document all of it though so that you can see for yourself just exactly what I did.

I don't want to mislead anyone though. The FULL amount of information will not be given away for free. I will post progress and proof through video and pictures of what I have completed. To get the full version, step-by-step instructions, you will have to order my ebook.

This challenge is to show that my Home Business works. Those of you who have bought my ebook all ready, will get a copy of the completed DVD. For those of you who have not seen my ebook, you can get a copy at www.eprolocator.com

So, follow along and see what CAN be done. I live in small town Iowa. The town that I live in only has a population of about 5,000. The nearest bigger town is 45 miles away. We don't even have a Wal-Mart here. So if I can do it, just about ANYONE can.

Wish me luck, and may we all prosper in these hard times.

Sincerely,

Marc Whealdon
