7 Ways To Travel The World For Free
Posted by James in Affiliate, Conversions, How To, Interview, James Schramko, Lifestyle, List Building, SEO
If you are a regular reader of Internet Marketing Speed you know I get out and about fairly often. I am typing this in the airport lounge at LAX (L.A Airport) right now.
Just in the last year or so for example I have been to:
The North Coast of New South Wales
Brisbane Queensland
Surfers Paradise Queensland – 5 Times
Los Angeles – 6 Times
Las Vegas
San Diego – 2 Times
Washington D.C
Baltimore
Detroit
Canada
Mexico
And later this year I am heading off to:
New Zealand
Dubai
Melbourne
Brisbane
Ireland
London
France
Switzerland
Would you like to know how you can do this for FREE using the power of Internet Marketing?
Here are 7 ways you can do this. I have done most of them and it works.
1) Pick a quality Internet Marketing seminar / event / summit / workshop and grab an affiliate link. Set up a blog / website and start promoting it. If you use the names of the speakers and also some Geo (area) targeted PPC you can make good sales. This can easily cover travel costs. Many events have ticket prices from $197 to $10,000. Commissions can be thousands. (It does not have to be just an Internet Marketing Event).
2) Attend an event and take notes. If you do that you can implement the lessons and make great profits to be able to fund a trip. I went to a local event first ($97 ticket) and turned that information into a six figure business.
3) Promote the speakers products. Use launch affiliate commissions to fund your trip. Find out who is speaking and sell the products they have online. They are out there generating buzz and being advertised. Ride the wave!
4) Speak at the event! If you speak at an event you are usually either payed to be there or you can sell your program after your presentation. This is a great way to travel anywhere in the world you like. It is a little more work however you can make a tidy profit. If you are starting out down this path try speaking for free to your local internet marketing group or business group. I did. Next you can speak at a workshop for someone else and then get on a bigger stage!
5) Run your own event. This is a HOT thing to do right now and all you need to start with is a few clients willing to be trained for a day or two. If you can sell workshops (from stage or webinars) you can self fund your trips to other places. Venue hire is cheap and you can leverage the event with video and a DVD.
6) Meet others at event and do Joint Ventures. This has resulted in Millions of dollars for many people. I was speaking with Jeff Johnson yesterday and he mentioned that ALL his guru buddies were people he met at events. I can vouch for the power of personal networking at these events.
7) Buy the recordings of an event and implement them! I bought these courses (recordings of live events):
Traffic secrets – doubled my business
PPC Classroom – hone PPC
7 Figure Code – business organization
Product Launch Formula – launch products
Yaniks Underground – secret techniques from real marketers
Here are how live events have boosted my results and why you should attend them too
Internet Mastery Secrets – met Mike Filsaime, Ed Dale and Kirt Christensen
Underground – met Yanik Silver, Brad Fallon, Perry Belcher, Jeff Johnson, Jeff Walker and many others….
Mass Control2 – met John Carlton, John Reese, Frank Kern, Shawn Casey, Trey, J Mo and many others….
Underground Training Lab – met Eben Pagan, Perry Belcher, Ryan Deiss, Dean Jackson, Bob Silber
I had time to do some planning with Brad Fallon for our new Affiliate Pounce Launch
One of the best ways to get all this going fast is to grab the exclusive bonus I am offering for Eben Pagans course. It is the best on the market and my bonuses are awesome! He is offering a live event as part of his product. Check Eben Pagan Bonus

It doesn’t get any simpler than that James. There have been so many courses just around those 7 you listed and I’m sure there will be many more. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing.

Great post, you got my mind whirring! I have already lined up my first Internet marketing seminar, but how boring is this. It’s going to be in Brisbane and I live in….. Brisbane.
Still, it’s a start.

No wonder you are so interesting to talk to James, you mix with some real movers and shakers. I’ve made a decision to start travelling the world for free too!

Nice one James
This is also how I started my career in Internet Marketing and have traveled the world and fulfilled my dreams with an Internet Marketing Business.
Develop your skills and there is virtually nothing you can’t achieve.
Offline marketing is also becoming very popular and is where you upgrade people sites with the skills you develop and can make you a small fortune.
Enjoy

I can 100% vouch for what you are saying James, you have to get off your duff put yourself into unfamiliar situations, Detroit & the Renaissance Center is one huge concrete rabbit warren my internal GPS was totally useless; as I couldn’t see the sun to get my N,E,S,W bearings, kept on getting lost especially after a few,
. One big Arsed Scary Place!
The payoff= learning & life experience takes off in leaps & bounds, everyday I found something to fascinate, amuse & sometimes confuse the hell out of me, felt like a newborn discovering the world. I learnt so many valuable lessons & not all of them about Internet Marketing .
Looking forward to getting home, but not the travel, eish it’s a long way, but it’s been an enlightening month.
BTW, I like the new look, very slick dudes

Thanks for all the comments folks!
I just arrived in Brisbane
Nearly home.
@Rob – don’t worry about Brisbane being boring. This is probably the smartest way to start! Have fun with it and develop relationships.
@Quentin – I really enjoyed meeting you last September in Queensland. All my readers can learn a LOT from you!

James, you are a smart bloke. What a way to experience the world and still make coin at the same time as increasing your knowledge.
Your ideas at Ultimate Marketing Seminar have given me a great action plan and I love your bonus ideas for affiliate promos. I can really crank that up further and offer a wow experience.
I have envisioned my future life and that includes plenty of travel while having the income to ensure I’m not eating out of dumpsters!
thankyou
