I’m keeping a running total and listing those who donate with a link to their website (good for your SEO) here and you can check out my leery taste in dressing gowns too >>>>
Apart from all that excitement, there has been more!! My brain is completely fried this week…..
Every now and then something comes along on the internet and you just know in your heart that it’s gonna be huge and that you have got to learn it quick. Just such a thing came along yesterday lunchtime, in between two of my internet marketing mentoring clients.
I was idly checking my Twitter conversations and I noticed Ed Dale twittering to someone else about a live TV broadcast from one of his “Thirty Day Challenge” mentee’s (is that a word?) and saying that we had to check it out. Something made me click and over I went.
And my life changed. Bam! And forever, I suspect.
I don’t think of myself as a very early adopter (took me ages to cotton onto the benefits of using Facebook, MySpace, YouTube etc) but I jumped on this one alright. Check us out at www.TheMoneyGym.tv
From first reading about it and then grasping what it was (about 5 mins) and then from the lightbulb moment to the account / profile implementation (15 minutes), then to live show being broadcast (4.5 hours - and that last would have been quicker if I had not had some other coaching calls).
Bless my clients, they had to have the first five minutes or so, listening to me banging on about this too!
This is one intuitive bit of software! I love software that you can puzzle out just by looking at it and then clicking around – does that make me Visual/Kinaesthetic, I wonder?
Especially as it auto-connects with (mashes up with?) Facebook, MySpace, YouTube and Twitter, not to mention interating with your blog (via Twitter for Wordpress and Typepad users at the moment).
So what is it?
Live TV, broadcast from your office or home……or anywhere really. So what? You may ask.
Well think about how YouTube has taken off – and how many accidental mega-stars have been created via YouTube.
Gary Vaynerchuck on WineLibrary.tv for starters. He’s getting 60,000 views per day on his wine tasting programmes on YouTube. See Gary in action here >>>>
Well, this website – called Justin.tv after the REALLY young guy who started it - is YouTube on steroids.
Kathy Sierra at her presentation at SXSW last weekend had a great take on why Gary has become so famous and his show’s so watched.
She thinks that Gary is succeeding not because he’s entertaining and educated about wine, but because he makes his viewers more entertaining and educated about wine.
And not least because his viewers feel a really strong sense of connection with him because they are interacting with him on the blog in the first person, telling their stories of trying new wines and how they are enjoying their wine more. See Kathy and Gary in action here >>>
Now, I would LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU to become more inspirational and educated. I would really love you to interact with me more and tell me your stories. And more importantly I would love you to tell us what you need from us, to help you in your wealth creation journey.
Here is the easiest fun ways to do that:
1. Come to one of our Let’s Talk Money days – next one in April http://www.TheMoneyGym.com/LetsTalkMoney
2. Watch and chat live with me on one of my new TV shows – http://www.MoneyGym.tv
3. Join us on one of our Wealth Surgery webinars on the 1st Tuesday evening of every month – more info at http://www.TheMoneyGymClub.com – join free, login and then register for the webinar at the “Next Events > Tele-Seminars” link on the left hand side.
4. Comment on the blog at http://www.TheMoneyGym.com/Blog - after every post there is a “comments” link and if you click that, you can leave your comment (they are moderated but I get an email immediately and approve everything except Spam)
Have fun, we most certainly are this week!

I’m trying to get this embed thing working so I can show you what it’s all about . The embed code is playing up though. Will keep trying.
In the meantime just go over to http://www.justin.tv/wealthcoach
I have found the MOST exciting thing on the internet - knocks even YouTube into touch!
Joel Comm was twittering about Justin.tv and I thought “oh no! not another place to upload my videos to…..” when I went to take a look and thought MAN! this is amazing.
Check out http://www.JustIn.tv/wealthcoach to see the show I broadcast between internet marketing coachiing clients today.
I’m doing another test broadcast at 17.00 uk time, so if you want to join me, and ask questions about wealth creation and how to make more money, live, using the chat function, I will do my best to concentrate and answer them!
So exciting!

Wealth Creation Expert Nicola Cairncross says: You know that phrase “Feel the fear and do it anyway”? I’m going to do just that at 8pm tonight on our Money Gym Wealth Creation Webinar for all members. What’s the score? I’m going live on camera and I’m going to give you a peek behind the scenes at The Money Gym….
Judith is moving house and I’m on air alone and I thought I would have some fun.
Not only will I be hosting the 8pm webinar and fielding questions that come in via the webinar page, but I will be answering questions live on air!
I’ll be filming myself at the same time and will be able to swap back and forth from the camera to my computer to let you see behind the nitty gritty of the webinar. I got the idea from reading Gary Conn’s blog http://www.garryconn.com so thanks Gary!
A phone-in come TV show! Then I’ll be broadcasting the recording on our blog here at www.MoneyGym.tv but also on our TV channel on YouTube www.YouTube.com/wealthcoach If it works, I will do it regularly.
Phew! I’m scared stiff but I think it will be fun.
