DotComSecrets Local Founder Russell Brunson announces limited openings in informational webinars to teach prospective millionaires how they can seek their fortune through offline internet marketing.

Boise, Idaho (PRWEB) February 21, 2012

With economic problems impacting nearly every city in the US, few industries are actually looking to bring in more people right now. But local sales jobs are available to the right candidates if they know where to look.

That’s according to Russell Brunson, president and founder of DotComSecrets Local, who announced today that he will be accepting a limited number of applications for his free webinar about positions available with his company.

Brunson, who is a self-made internet marketing success story, has opened 300 positions for each of three webinars he will be hosting during the coming week. Positions at past webinars went quickly, and thousands of people were turned away.

DotComSecrets Local specializes in matching struggling local businesses with internet marketing experts who can improve their sales dramatically. Webinar attendees will learn about how they can make more than $8,000 per month, or even more, by simply connecting businesses in their towns with Brunson’s company.

Those selected to be local affiliates of the company can earn thousands per week while working part time from their own homes with these offline internet marketing jobs.

Because more businesses are shifting their marketing to the internet, offline internet marketing is the new gold rush for entrepreneurs on the web, according to Brunson. The local marketing jobs created by DotComSecrets Local have helped hundreds of people earn paychecks on their very first day.

Plus DotComSecrets Local has helped thousands of struggling small business move away from costly and ineffective traditional advertising and transfer their marketing focus to the internet, which has exponentially more potential customers and where marketing dollars have a much better return on investment.

Brunson -- an associate of famed motivational speaker Tony Robbins and international business tycoon Richard Branson -- said the same internet marketing techniques that have proven successful for internet superstars Facebook, Google, Foursquare and Twitter can be applied to local business to make their revenues skyrocket.

DotComSecrets Local uses local agents to connect small business with the company so they can start building their business more quickly and more efficiently than they could with traditional marketing techniques.

During this week’s webinars, participants will learn how they can join DCS Local chapters in their own home cities and become highly paid consultants while working part time and from their own homes. These local sales jobs have resulted in some DCS consultants earning more than $8,000 per month while doing no actual work other than connecting small business owners with DCS Local.

Participants also will discover how people with no sales or marketing experience whatsoever were able to start earning paychecks beginning on the very first day with DCS Local.

“We want to help these small businesses and we have the resources to do it,” Brunson said. “We’re just missing one thing that we need to reach them: A local presence. We need somebody on the ground.”

That’s why DCS Local is expanding its offline internet marketing network into every major city and metropolitan area in the US. And it all begins with these webinars.

Brunson stressed that the webinars were expected to fill up fast. Only 300 positions for each webinar will be made available, so those people who want to learn how they can start making thousands of dollars per week while working part time from their own homes should sign up fast before all the positions are filled.

Visible Measures, a company with offices in Boston, describes Metrics as an analytics and advertising platform. Visible Measures said its Metrics tools can provide its customers and clients with visibility into the performance of in social media marketing efforts.

In a press release, Visible Measures said that the Media Rating Council, an industry group that audits and accredits media measurement services, has voted to grant accreditation to a range of Visible Measures’ metrics for digital video.

“For the first time, consumers are actually choosing to watch, share, and evangelize video advertising, and brand marketers need a way to quantify all the resulting earned media,” Visible Measures founder and chief executive Brian Shin said in a statement. “We believe that the social consumption and sharing of branded content affords entirely new opportunities for marketers.”

Visible Measure’s ability to measure and amplify the performance of a video marketing campaign on social media helps advertisers to be more effective, Shin said.

Mexico: where journalists have protested against rising violence against reporters

Copyright: Knight Foundation on Flickr. Some rights reserved The executive director of the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) has called for a "global coalition" between media, governments, business sectors and "civil society organisations" against censorship.

In the press freedom organisation's annual Attacks on the Press report, which documents the "media conditions" across more than 100 countries, Simon refers to "the next information revolution", where those keen to restrict the press have learnt "that maintaining a viable censorship regime is even more urgent in the information age."

He adds: "The reality is that there are few effective legal mechanisms to fight censorship on an international level."
 
In response he called for "the many constituencies that have a stake in ensuring the free flow of information" to work together to form a "global coalition against censorship".

This coalition would include the business sector, for example, which has "operations and supply chains spread throughout the world".

"Navigating political unrest, environmental disaster, and other disruptions is crucial – and it cannot be done effectively when key information is censored."

Others to join the coalition should include governments and groups "with a global agenda", in particular "human rights and environmental organisations", according to Simon.

"The key is to mobilise the many constituencies that have a stake in ensuring the free flow of information – civil society and advocacy groups, businesses, governments, and intergovernmental organisations – and build a global coalition against censorship.

After all, an attack on an Egyptian, Pakistani, or Mexican journalist inhibits the ability of people around the world to receive the information that journalist would have providedJoel Simon, executive director, CPJ"While the ability to seek and receive information is an individual human right, there is a collective interest in ensuring that information flows freely. After all, an attack on an Egyptian, Pakistani, or Mexican journalist inhibits the ability of people around the world to receive the information that journalist would have provided."

The coalition should work to call on "international organisations, including intergovernmental groups such as the Organization of American States and the Council of Europe, as well as the United Nations, to create a legal framework to ensure that press freedom and freedom of information are respected in practice", he added.

"Human rights and press freedom organisations should look for opportunities to adjudicate press freedom cases at the international level in order to build a body of global precedent."

In reference to the impact of the internet, he added that while the online world provides a platform for bloggers and citizen journalists to share information in countries where other communications are restricted, the fact is that many of them "work with few resources and little or no institutional support".

"Just as global citizens have a stake in ensuring that information flows freely, powerful forces – criminal organisations, militant groups, repressive governments – have enormous interest in controlling the news. Censorship within national borders disrupts the flow of information around the world.

"A global coalition against censorship needs to unite behind a simple idea: Censorship anywhere affects people everywhere. It can and should be abolished."

In the preface to the 462 page report, chairman of the CPJ Sandra Mims Rowe also refers to the need for greater protection, adding that "about half of the journalists imprisoned worldwide work primarily online".

"In much of the world, the enemies of free speech are monitoring journalists and bloggers, filtering online content, and attacking news websites."

She adds: "Supplementing the old fashioned beatings used to secure the names of colleagues and sources from journalists, the digital 'army' has employed the phishing of Facebook pages to dupe people into providing passwords and identities."

Now the press freedom group is working to "act as a bridge between Silicon Valley and the journalists who depend on their products".

Last year the CPJ's first internet advocacy coordinator Danny O'Brien brought together technologists and journalists to meet and discuss these issues, she reports.

"While the internet has provided the equivalent of a printing press to millions of people across the world, it has also broadened the power to shutter those presses. Technology is allowing journalists to slip the chains of censorship, but that new found freedom will be fleeting if not defended."

One week into his re-election campaign, French President Nicolas Sarkozy has already courted plenty of controversy.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy

His "La France Forte" or "A strong France" campaign posters have been the subject of parody, with variations on the original of Sarkozy pictured with a tranquil sea behind him modified to include a capsized cruise ship — a reference to the sunken Costa Concordia off the coast of Italy — among the more notable.

Earlier this week his team appeared to have asked Twitter to close down four accounts linked to the spoof posters.

A member of Sarkozy’s team told French newspaper Le Monde that he had asked Twitter to remove the accounts, arguing that they could confusion as they used both Sarkozy’s first and last name.

The "#sarkocensure" hashtag has become one of the most popular in France, with many ridiculing Sarkozy who has in the past called for more regulation of the “Wild West” Internet.

For his visit to a Halal abattoir on Shrove Tuesday or Mardi Gras, some tweeters suggested he might dress up as Francois Hollande, his socialist challenger, to please the crowds.

An Ifop poll published on Sunday showed the French President trailing behind his socialist challenger, although the gap has narrowed. Twenty nine percent of those polled said they would vote for Hollande, while 27 would support Sarkozy. Right-wing Front National candidate Marine Le Pen was in third place with 17.5 percent of the vote.

But Sarkozy, undeterred, will have taken heart from economic data last week which showed the French economy managed to grow in the final quarter of 2011 — if only by 0.2 percent — contrary to that of many of its euro zone peers.

The euro zone as a whole saw a contraction of 0.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Focus on the Economy

Economists fear France will not be able to stay in the lead and that the figures should not offer too much hope that the economy might be more resilient to the periphery’s troubles than feared.

“Prospects for French exports are marred by fairly weak competitiveness and a reliance on trade within the euro-zone, while the previous consumer recovery has already stalled. And with the banking sector still highly exposed to Italy and the peripheral economies, we see France losing its lead before long,” analysts at Capital Economics said in a note.

They point out that with half of its exports going to other euro zone countries, and 40 percent of those to the southern and peripheral economies, the prospect of further sharp falls in demand there bodes very ill for French exporters.

“As the peripheral debt crisis worsens, French GDP is likely to fall sharply, particularly if Italy is dragged back in,” they said.

In an interview with CNBC on Wednesday, Jean Francois Copé, Secretary General of Sarkozy's center-right UMP party said France had to focus its attention on reducing the budget deficit and public spending.

“We have to change the growth model which was totally relying on public spending," Copé said.

He added that his party would scrap France's 35-hour working week.

Sarkozy will argue that his close cooperation with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in fighting the euro zone debt crisis makes him the right man to navigate France through troubled waters.

At his first big rally in Marseille on Monday he sought to project the image of a strong and experienced leader who had helped France to escape what has befallen those in Greece.

The first round of the elections takes place on April 22. Until then, he has many a skeptical French voter to convince.
