As anyone who has tried to break into internet marketing is aware, there are a lot of claims of big bucks and fast money out there. The hype is mind numbing after a while and it is enough to make anyone jaded and cynical. For that reason I am trying to not to over hype The Secret Classroom. The Secret Classroom is a series of videos presented and moderated by Joel Comm. In my opinion The Secret Classroom is an excellent foundation for anyone trying to break into the internet marketing field. I recommend this product not because you will make a million dollars by 2:00 this afternoon; I recommend this product because of the great foundation it provides. Every one of the presenters is an expert in a different area and provides a ton of information about their area of expertise. This series is about how to put an internet business together. It talks about putting together a business plan. It talks about how to brand your business. It talks about how to use search engine optimization. It talks about how to present compelling copy with your marketing efforts. And it talks about much more. The premise for the video is that these internet marketing experts got together and had a competition to see who they would choose to participate with them in a joint venture with for a new product launch. The winner would become the “Next Internet Millionaire”. For 2 weeks these participants attended the sessions and participated in competitions to see who would make it through to the next round. That is the underlying story behind the presentations. This product was actually made in 2007 but it is amazingly still very much relevant with the possible exception of some of the social media information. In order to present full disclosure about the video series I thought I would give you a list of the pros and cons for the product. Pros
- It is over 20 incredible hours of insider insight from people who are leaders in this field.
- I learned more from this product than any single product I have ever bought.
- The experts each present their own specialty in ways that are reproducible and easy to understand.
- Any one of these videos is worth the price I paid for them all.
- The program includes downloadable workbooks which help the viewer follow the presentations.
Cons
- The camera stays on the speaker even though there are occasional non visible slides he is referring to.
- The sound is occasionally inconsistent as participants in the audience speak.
- As previously mentioned, some of the social media references seem to be out of date.
