I decided to see if Michael's videos live up totheir promise by trying them out myself. Here'swhat I found:

*************************************************Overall Quality*************************************************

The first thing I noticed when I opened up thefirst video was the stunning production quality.He used Camtasia Studio for the production, whichis now the industry standard for creatinghigh-quality screen capture video products. Theaudio is near studio quality, and the graphicsare very professional. These videos were made bysomeone who KNOWS what he's doing. Well done!

I also liked how Michael divided the videos up bysection, and then again by sub-section. Forexample, one video is all about the subject line,and then there are different parts of that videothat each cover a certain area of crafting akiller subject line.

Now let's move onto...

*************************************************THE ACTUAL VIDEOS*************************************************

Here's a brief summary of each video. Obviouslyit's impossible to list every single thing here,but I want you to get a feel for what each onecovered, and how well it covered it.

This video served as an introduction to the wholecourse. You get to see a picture of Michael inhis every day life, and he establishes hiscredibility right up front by talking about someof his massive successes online. He even providesproof of credibility by displaying two checks inthe amount of $50,000 and $25,000 which provethat, when it comes to the subject of makingmoney with email promos, he knows his stuff.

This is a good lesson for anyone to get. Wheneveryou're teaching people how to do something, it'sgood to establish your credibility up front, sothat there's no doubt about whether or not you'requalified to talk about the subject. Most productdevelopers either skip or minimize this step.

VIDEO 8 - COMMON MISTAKES PEOPLE MAKE

I loved this video, because it showed me somemistakes that I was making that I wasn't evenaware of. Unless you're a seasoned pro, you'reprobably guilty of some of the things thatMichael talks about in this video as well, andthat's why it's so valuable. I've shaved yearsoff my learning curve, because now I can avoidsome of the costly mistakes that I was bound tomake in the learning process.

VIDEO 9 - HOW TO CREATE FOLLOW-UP EMAIL PROMOTIONS

This video alone is going to make me a lot ofmoney. Why? Because I used to only send out oneemail promo for each affiliate promotion I wasdoing. Michael showed me in this video howimportant it is to send a follow-up promotion,and he showed me exactly how to do it. He coveredthings like:

Purses & Microbiology

This was posted directly from my email. Simply sent the email and the post was added to my site. Blogger.com is so easy to use.

Have you ever noticed gals who sit their purses on public restroom floors beside the toilet - and then go directly to their dining tables?

Happens a lot! It's not always the 'restaurant food' that causes stomach distress. Sometimes "what you don't know 'will' hurt you"! Read on...Mom got so upset when a guest came in the door and plopped their purses down on the counter where she was cooking or setting up the buffet. She always said that purses are really dirty, because of Where they have been. Smart Momma!!! It's something just about every woman carries with them. While we may know what's inside our purses, do you have any idea what's on the outside?

Shauna Lake put purses to the test - for bacteria** - with surprising results. You may think twice about where you put your purse. Women carry purses everywhere; from the office to public restrooms to the floor of the car. Most women won't be caught without their purses, but did you ever stop to think about where your purse goes during the day?

"I drive a school bus, so my purse has been on the floor of the bus a lot," says one woman. "On the floor of my car, probably in restrooms."

"I put my purse in grocery shopping carts, on the floor of bathroom stalls while changing a diaper," says another woman and of course in my home which should be clean."

We decided to find out if purses harbor a lot of bacteria. We learned how to test them at Nelson Laboratories in Salt Lake , then we set out to test the average woman's purse. Most women told us they didn't stop to think about what was on the bottom of their purse. Most said they usually set their purses on top of kitchen tables and counters where food is prepared. Most of the ladies we talked to told us they wouldn't be surprised if their purses were at least a little bit dirty. It turns out purses are so surprisingly dirty, even the microbiologist who tested them was shocked. Microbiologist Amy Karren of Nelson Labs says nearly all of the purses tested were not only high in bacteria, but high in harmful kinds of bacteria.

Pseudomonas can cause eye infections, staphylococcus aurous can cause serious skin infections, and salmonella and e-coli found on the purses could make people very sick. In one sampling, four of five purses tested positive for salmonella, and that's not the worst of it.

"There is fecal contamination on the purses," says Amy.

Leather or vinyl purses tended to be cleaner than cloth purses, and lifestyle seemed to play a role. People with kids tended to have dirtier purses than those without, with one exception. The purse of one single woman who frequented nightclubs had one of the worst contaminations of all. "Some type of feces, or even possibly vomit or something like that," says Amy. So the moral of this story - your purse won't kill you, but it does has the potential to make you very sick if you keep it on places where you eat. Use hooks to hang your purse at home and in restrooms, and don't put it on your desk, a restaurant table, or on your kitchen countertop.

Experts say you should think of your purse the same way you would a pair of shoes. "If you think about putting a pair of shoes onto your countertops, that's the same thing you're doing when you put your purse on the countertops." Do you really want to bring that home with you?

The microbiologists at Nelson also said cleaning a purse will help. Wash cloth purses and use leather cleaner to clean the bottom of leather purses.
