<h3><strong><span id="more-407"></span></strong></h3>
<p>I had a similar accident 12 years ago that changed my life. (<a title="Opens in a new window" href="http://www.micaljohnson.com/car_accident.htm" target="_blank">I was hit by a semi-truck</a>) After my accident I had to re-evaluate my life and what I wanted to do. It was extremely painful to walk for almost 4 years! It took me a few years of  pain and searching before I figured it out, but when I did I totally emmersed myself in my new profession&#8230;commissioned sales!</p>
<p>I was an egar student learning everything I could from all the &#8220;Old dogs&#8221; and quickly became the #1 sales guy for the company I was with. Fast forward a few years and I was now doing Internet Marketing.</p>
<p>Then it happened!</p>
<p>Another life changing event&#8230;</p>
<p>I was following some of the Internet Marketing Guru&#8217;s when everyone was talking about this &#8220;new&#8221; product coming out. They were all raving about it saying how it was going to change the way we did business online.</p>
<p>Man were they right. The product was called <a href="http://tampaseo.butterflymarketing.com">Butterfly Marketing</a>. As I tallied up all my savings and bought the product I knew that when I could get it to work it was going to change the way I did business online.</p>
<p>In the home study course (<a title="Opens in a new window" href="http://www.micaljohnson.com/images/bfmcoursefull.gif" target="_blank">Here&#8217;s Mine</a>) Mike Filsaime talks about a couple of key concept</p>
<ul>
<li>Using Upsells</li>
<li>Getting others to promote your product</li>
</ul>
<p>I know what you are saying&#8230; these concepts are not new. I learned those years before when I first started selling. What was different was his application of it and how he did it online. Mike had automated almost the entire process.</p>
<p>Wow!</p>
<p>Everything I had been trying to do online putting together different software packages spending countless hours trying to make them work together had been done for me. I&#8217;m sure you can imagine my frustration of not being able to put all my sales and marketing knowlege to work for me online. I had been trying in vain to put together a system that I knew from my experience would work. Arrrgh! The agrevation of it all.</p>
<p>I made my payment to Mike and eagerly awaited my package to come in the mail. When it arrived with a big **Thud** at my doorstep I tore into it and didn&#8217;t stop until I was done. It took me almost 3 days of reading, watching videos and listening to interviews over and over again to realize that this was going to be another life changing event for me.</p>
<p>This Changed My Life.</p>
<p>Fast forward a couple of years later and I closed my brick and mortar office and do everything from my laptop sitting at Starbucks or where ever I decide to do business.</p>
<p>Why?&#8230;</p>
<p>Because I can! Thanks Mike <img src='http://www.micaljohnson.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt="icon wink This Changed My Life..." class='wp-smiley' title="This Changed My Life..." /> </p>
<p>Do I have a point to all this?  Ofcourse I do&#8230;</p>
<p>Mike Filsaime has done it again. But this time he is giving away the new, updated version of what I payed <strong>$1500</strong> for!!</p>
<p>Well, I am a little upset about it, but I am happy at the same time. I know this will be better that the first Butterfly Marketing product without the <strong>$1500</strong> price tag, which is even more now! (What is Mike thinking?)</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know what kind of things motivate you but for me changing my life for the better and making a sure<a title="My Daughter Gabriella" href="http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&amp;friendID=100865158&amp;albumID=1413422&amp;imageID=30979240" target="_blank"> my daughter</a> is taken care of motivates me.</p>
<p>On March 24th @ 1pm EST exactly (or sooner if you are on his earlybird list) Mike will be giving out 5,000 copies of his <a title="BFM 2.0" href="http://tampaseo.butterflymarketing.com">Butterfly Markeing 2.0</a> ( I know what I will be doing)</p>
<p>To join me in this life changing event go to the <a href="http://tampaseo.butterflymarketing.com">Butterfly Marketing 2.0</a> web site and watch the video then sign up for the early bird waiting list on the right hand side.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget Spread the word and share this moment with a friend after all this is the <a href="http://tampaseo.butterflymarketing.com">Butterfly Marketing</a> way.</p>
