Alex Jeffreys Spills The Beans on the Newbies Nightmare!
June 29th, 2009
Things have been going a bit ballistic around here the past week or so. You might know that I run a hosting company, D9Hosting.com with my biz partner, Dan Thompson, and we’ve been run off our feet getting ready to launch our new-look website with our new packages and prices – so I’m sure you can imagine, my head’s spinning a bit and I’ve been pulling a few all-nighters.
Couple this with the fact that my eldest son is about to start senior school in a couple of months and I’ve been rushing around getting him all kitted out for that – arrghh!! Juggling, juggling, lol.
Anyway, because of all this I’ve been a bit slow on the up-take letting my readers know about Alex Jeffreys’ coaching program that opened the other day. And there’s no way I can do a proper endorsement until I’ve had the pre-requisite `Paula Brett nosey-parker rummage around:)
First of all, if you’re reading this today, i.e. 29th June, there are only a few spaces left. Yes, I know, that’s what everyone says, but seriously, I was in on Alex’s last coaching course and I KNOW that he really does shut the door with a huge clang when the numbers are met and the slightly overweight lady sings.
So if you’re in a hurry, go see if you can grab one of the final spots here
BUT… if you’d like to know more about why I’m recommending you don’t miss out on this…. read on…
I first started chatting to Alex on, of all places, Twitter. You know, the usual banter backwards and forwards. Then we sent each other a few DMs and Alex sent me some links to some of products.
He told me that he was starting a coaching course and that he was really excited about it. I wished him luck with it and hoped that it would go well for him and his new students. He then invited me onto the coaching to take a look (I think my reputation for being a nosey-parker and having a good old rummage around preceeds me, lol)
This was really exciting for me, as I’d never really had the opportunity to see behind the scenes on something like this before. Of course, you probably know that I was involved in, my mentor, John Thornhill’s coaching but this was going to be different.
Not only was Alex Jeffreys someone who I didn’t know very well, but I didn’t know a great deal about his methods and modus operandi. I decided to try an experiment and put myself back in the `newbie’ mindset, to try and see if this course would’ve been the magic button for me back when I was first starting out.
From November last year to February this year, I can tell you, I was spellbound. Alex is one of the most innovative and exciting marketers around today, and I really mean that.
He’s full of energy and the best thing is, he’s totally down to earth, he might even be a little too down to earth for some people who aren’t keen on hearing the odd expletive here and there!!
But seriously, every week I couldn’t wait for the next webinar. Yes, I attended every single one and boy were they marathons.
Alex would speak on his topic for the week and then he would take questions. And it wasn’t just the odd question, he would answer every single one of the questions that his students asked.
Impossible you say, but no, it wasn’t. Sometimes he would answer questions for 3 or 4 hours, and he wouldn’t log off until everyone had their answers, he was so dedicated to every single one of his students succeeding and not being left behind. Impressive!
I actually met Alex, in person, in February, when I attended an event in London. This was a big thing for me, as I’d never had the nerve to step out from behind my computer screen and meet other marketers face to face before.
John Thornhill and Dave Nicholson had invited me too, but I procrastinated and evaded. Too scared, too nervous!!
Then Alex said you’ve GOT to come and he bugged and bugged and bugged me until I relented. I was even fashionably late and he Twittered me the whole time I was driving to the event. Every 10 minutes i was getting bleeps on my phone from Twitter “where are you” “are you nearly here yet”
Despite my initial fear, I was so glad I went. Alex and his other students kept me laughing and chatting and swapping ideas for 12 whole hours. I arrived at 4.30 in the afternoon and I didn’t leave that hotel bar until 4.30 in the morning. I have to say, I was the only sober one and I was able to take a few embarrassing photos of the `lads’

Recently, Alex held an end-of-course, free, two-day seminar in Las Vegas for his students and I decided that I had to follow things through till the end and attend this. I wanted to meet more of his students and to see how they’d faired on the course, how they’d come along since the beginning, the previous November.
Me, Gary Simpson, Nikki Stephens, Rob Brooks, Lesley Morgan
And I could kill two birds with one stone — I also wanted to meet up with Omar Martin,
whose latest product with Mike Filsaime I was involved in and I knew that Mike’s Butterfly Marketing event was in Vegas two days later too.
OK, OK, I admit it…. I also fancied a fun junket to Vegas! There, I’ve said it!
Mike Filsaime, Me
I have to say I was absolultely delighted to meet up with some of Alex’s students and to swap stories of how they’d done during and after being on his coaching course. Obviously, not all of Alex’s students were able to make it to Vegas, but the ones who did all have an amazing story to tell about Alex’s coaching and how it helped them.
Garry Parkes openly admits that he wouldn’t have any of the success he has online now if it hadn’t been for Alex’s coaching.
Dean Holland actually decided he was going to quit his job when he returned from Vegas and he did. And all because he got in on Alex’s coaching course.
Nikki Stephens, Garry Parkes, Me
Dan Briffa (who refers to me as his second mother, which I’m sure ages me!!!) made $6k in the couple of weeks before he flew out to Vegas, and again, swears he wouldn’t have done so without Alex’s coaching
Mike Ottman has also quit his job just a few months after finishing Alex’s last coaching course.
And there were tons of other success stories from normal, every day, fun, hard-working, like-minded people, all determined to succeed, all proactive enough to get themselves a mentor, listen to his advice and align themselves with Alex Jeffreys and his method of marketing online for maximum impact and monetary results.
So, I have to say…
- I’ve met the man, was impressed.
- I’ve seen the coaching, was impressed.
- I’ve met the students and seen the results — again, very impressive!
Of course, grabbing yourself a mentor and following a coaching programme may not be for you. You might be quite happy as you are, but I would seriously urge you to at least take a look with an open mind — it could be something that changes your life and takes you to the next level.
Oh, and if you feel that one lump sum payment is a bit too much to pay out in one go, Alex has made things easy by introducing a payment plan, so together with the 60-day money back guarantee, you might at least dip your toe in, join up, follow along, meet some great people, forge some great relationships for the future, swap ideas, learn and go forward with your online business. I can promise you, you won’t regret it.
