Trevor Mauch and Patrick Riddle Private Money Bluprint Launch – Pre-Launch 4/21: Launch 5/7
It’s kinda crazy when I look back at how JVupdate started back in December ‘08 (just a few months back)… and how much of a following it’s drawn in our industry. There’s over 190 REI marketers/gurus/etc. now in the group (almost every big name in REI is a member… there are a few “big dogs” that I’m going after to join up)… and it’s already been directly responsible for nearly six figures in EXTRA revenues for our members (it’s only been 2 and a half months).
Kinda cool if you ask me 
But… I’m pretty darn excited about this post… well… because frankly I’m pretty biased on this one… and you won’t be disappointed.
I’m not going to throw out claims that “this is the best course ever!“… or “it’s going to be the biggest launch EVER!“… etc. It’s going to be solid… but not the biggest ever… and frankly it seems like there’s a new “best course ever” coming out every week nowadays (a lot of them are REALLY GOOD… some suck… us JVupdaters create just QUALITY products though… right?).
My approach is to do all I can to create the highest value and quality product humanly possible… to be honest and keep my integrity through the whole process… and let the course we release do the talking. Just from the students who’ve seen it… they’re blown away and I can tell you there truly isn’t anything on the market that takes this take on Getting Private Money… guaranteed.
Anyhow… enough blabbing… onto the launch update!
- Trevor
The When:
- Launch Dates: Trevor (I’ll be talking in the 3rd person the rest of this post
has set pre-launch to start on 4/31 and open the doors on the product on 5/07.
The Who:
- Trevor Mauch of www.theREIbrain.com, JVupdate.com, and privatemoneyblueprint.com. And Patrick Riddle (a full-time investor) of Palmetto Property Solutions and www.mustknowinvesting.com
- Other contributors include fellow JVupdater Susan Lassiter-Lyons of www.theinvestorinsights.com, and a top national SEC attorney (disclosed in the program). Susan has recruited over $24 million in private money over the last 6 years for her own deals and her clients… she’s the real deal.
Patrick and I met back in mid 2008… he was a full-time investor in South Carolina (and has been for 6 years… he’s known no other career)… and after a several month “courting” period (that sounds weird…) I delved into his real estate business and found that he’s the real deal… and has recruited over $6 million in private money in 5 years… turning that into almost $3 million in cash and equity in his pocket. He’s down to earth, honest… and has a great story that will resonate with the market.
The What:
The product for the launch is the full and enhanced “home study” version of our 8 week online Private Money Blueprint coaching program we did a pilot launch of back in November ‘08 which sold out to our internal list and a few JV’s within 2 days at a price point of $900 (in hindsight we could have easily charged $1200).
One of our students was able to recruit a bit over $600k in private money within 3 weeks after the program ended using what he learned… he said that will translate into approx. $200k in profits in the next 8 months alone. There are some great results based testimonials from the original group of 20 students we took on as well.
Here’s what the MAIN Home Study course is…
- 236 page 6 Module (not big font double spaced… this is single spaced… packed w/ step by step instruction) home study manual
- 4 full color “Blueprint” process maps on specific areas of getting private money (we’re hoping to add another 1-2 blueprints before launch)
- 6 weekly action plans (specific time based action plans after each module)
- 6 main module full length video DVD’s (each is approx. 2 hours of instruction and Q&A w/ action plan and resources at end)
- 1 Bonus DVD module on Lender Luncheons, 1 bonus CD module of an interview with an actual private lender, 1 bonus CD module of a 90 minute consultation I paid a nationally known SEC attorney $295/hr to do… much of the call was based on members specific questions and a survey we did to our list (no joke… we paid him $600 for the teleseminar and his preparation time)
- Resource CD w/ currently 31 forms/templates/scripts, etc.
- Private Money Powerpoint Presentation and speaking script
- Free 30 minute 1 on 1 coaching w/ Patrick
- Unlimited access to the online members area where all of the course content and downloads are available for download (including MP3 of the course audios) if they’d rather sit at their computer to learn… and we update the area w/ new video tutorials from member questions.
- … and more unadvertised bonuses that they’ll get via online and USPS mailed packages after they purchase
We’re having an upsell for a more hands on coaching package with Patrick which will include weekly Q&A for 4 weeks after they get the course, group coaching calls once a week for 2 months, and 2 personal 1 on 1 coaching sessions w/ Patrick and ongoing email coaching for a year.
Here’s the product and price points…
- Private Money Blueprint Home Study – $497
- Personal Coaching Upsell - $997
- Private Money Monthly Continuity Program – $67/mo
Then, we’re doing a “launch within a launch” and upselling all of the students to our private money recruiting websites made with Wordpress (these things rock) that we’ve been using in our own businesses recently. Those will be from $25-$49 a month depending on the package.
After the launch dies down we’re going to go into a “downsell launch” where we sell all of the non buyers into the Private Money Getting websites (also buyer and seller websites are part of the package w/ squeeze pages)… so about a week after the initial launch there will be a 2nd wave of sales. Kinda cool huh?
The How (how you make money that is):
First… we’ll have the JV partner page up early April where “it’ll all go down”… we’ll get that link to ya when it’s ready.
As far as how the heck you walk away with FREE MONEY FOREVER is pretty cut and dry.
- You’ll get 50% commissions on main course, Private Money Monthly continuity, and the upsell… those alone will convert like mad and we’re going to be doing some cool high value stuff with the members to keep the stick rates high.
- On all of the Private Money website upgrades (which will be high because we’re doing case study based marketing using the sites… frankly… they kick butt… give results… and the people using them swear by them now)… on those sales it’ll be an ongoing 20% of revenues (which isn’t huge per customer)… but the stick rate on these is going to be outrageous… so you’ll be getting checks this time next year for most of your customers who sign up for these sites.
We brought in one of the top launch guys from OUTSIDE of the REI space to manage the launch. He’s good friends with Jeff and John Walker and is a damn good marketer… his name is Chris Brisson and he’s worked w/ a ton of big name marketers in the IM industry… great dude. This thing will be done right… you can count on it.
Prizes... once we get the launch blog up and rolling you’ll see the launch prizes. We’re not going to be able to compete w/ the Dodge Charger (Jeff, you really raised the bar with that one… that rocked!)… but there’s going to be some rockin’ goodies up for grabs throughout the launch… if any of you are golfers I’m thinking about something really cool for ya (let me know how many golfers there are out there…).
All in all guys and gals… the one aspect that we believe in more than anything is to put out an EXTREMELY HIGH VALUE product and not cut any corners, pour a ton of effort into customer service and keeping the stick rate high as heck… and to have fun during the whole darn process.
That’s it… that’s all.
If you want to get on board w/ us and and our team for the launch here’s the details for ya…
For right now… just email me or my launch manager directly and just say in the subject line “yeeeaaayyyaaa… I’m In!” (I’m serious… no jokes)… or you can give me a ring… but you gotta say that little line above right when you call
Once we have the launch blog up you can sign up there (but I’d rather hear you say “yeeeaaaayyyaaaa… I’m In!”… more fun)

Tim Mai Product Launch And Birthday Bash – Pre-launch 3/31: Launch 4/8
Alright JVupdaters… Tim Mai connected w/ me and let us know about his big launch and birthday bash starting the end of this month (March) and really ramping up the 2nd week in April.
I’ve taken a lot of time to really look at the details of the launch and see what it is… and what it isn’t… and it looks like it’s going to be pretty darn impressive. Ya… Tim had a few hiccups with the last launch… but we’ve all learned from them… and the way they’ve put this launch together it is extremely tight and they’re pulling all of the stops. Shaping up to be another doosey.
Anyhow… on with the show…
- Trevor
P.S. – Tim… I got your postcard… I love you too man! (by the way… was that picture on the front of the postcard what I think it was?? lol)
The When:
- Launch Dates: Tim has set pre-launch to start on 3/31 and open the doors on the product on 4/08.
The Who:
- Tim Mai of www.dodeals.com
We all know Tim (don’t we)… well Tim and his army of VA’s from Philippines are ramrodding this launch in the wake of his huge original launch back in ‘08… it’s shaping up to be a great one! That’s a pic of his VA team in the Philippines… they’re excited and ready to go (okay… that’s a little bit of an exaggeration on the size of this team… but not much
The What:
Okay, the way Tim is going about the launch looks like it’s going to be quite a bit different from his last rodeo. During his last launch it was a $7 upfront loss-leader w/ a $197 continuity and upsells.
I actually like the strategy for this go around a lot better and the stick rate on the continuity is going to be WAY HIGHER as a result of the way they are structuring the sale. Before Tim sold the $7 blueprints and the continuity was attached as a bonus… this time the continuity is what they are selling… so people are going into the purchase with the mindset that they are buying the continuity… hence… stick rates will rock.
Here’s the product and price points…
- Dodeals.com Gold Membership – $97 upfront and $97/mo
- Dodeals.com Gold Plus Membership - $197/mo as an upsell
- VirtualVesting Fortunes Online Course – $997 upsell
Essentially… they’re taking the approach Than took w/ his Wholesaling U launch… which produces much higher stick rates and buyers.
You can check out the product over at the dodeals.com site:
If you don’t have a membership hit Tim up for a comp one so you can see what’s inside
Tim (actually… one of his 42 VA’s) put together a great flow process on the whole sales process over at his launch blog… check ‘er out.
The How (how you make money that is):
First… just head on over to Tim’s JV partner page to see the details… I’ll summarize them here.
Here’s the affiliate page link you should go to:
http://www.momonie.com (you’ll need to get the UN and PW from Tim to get in)
Basically, it’s pretty cut and dry.
You’ll get 50% commissions on the continuity and upsells… that’ll really add up at $97 to $197/mo.
One thing Tim is doing that is going to be really cool is he’s bringing on some big time guys from outside of the REI space as consultants and to help out in the actual content of the launch.
Also… as always there’s going to be some pretty damn great prizes up for grabs… including 2 virtual assistants for a whole year… and Tim will find the VAs for you… and pay for them both for a year for ya… that’s huge. How much more can you get done with 2 more people working FULL-TIME for you and your business???
Ya… that’s a valuable prize… to say the least.
- Les Brown is doing the initial opt in video for Tim… pretty cool huh?
- And other guys like Marshall Sylver… and I may be mistaken but Russell Brunson is playing a role in the launch somehow (Tim… give me a reverse karate chop to the neck if I’m wrong there… )
If you want to get on board w/ Tim and his team for their launch board w/ his launch here’s the details for ya…

Jeff Vacek Go BE Productive Personal Management/Productivity Program – 3/26 Launch
Hey guys and gals…
Here w/ yet another launch update for the JVupdate crowd.
This launch isn’t real estate specific… but it’s from a dude whos been in the real estate space for a while (mostly behind the scenes as a JV broker)… and he’s a great dude to get to know who has some really good connections in the REI space.
So, this product is on personal management and productivity… which is a soft topic… but especially in the mindset a lot of people are in right now because of the economy it’s a timely product.
Check er out… it’s coming up soon (this month)… so it may be a way to break up your promotions to your list w/ a non “rei how to” thingy… and come at it with an angle of they have to master these skills in order to make the REI how-to stuff the most effective (which is 100% true… I’m a living testament).
Here we go…
- Trevor
Launch Cliff Notes:
- $497 and $797 pricepoints w/ 50% commission
- $87 a month continuity (10% commission)
- Directamundo (I’m in that mood) link to his launch blog for more details: http://gobeproductivelaunch.com/
The When:
- Launch Dates: Jeff has set pre-launch to start on 3/19 and open the doors on the product on 3/26.
The Who:
- Jeff Vacek of www.jeffvacek.com
(he’s of course the dude on the left… the other one is Yanik… in case you didn’t know
Jeff is a cool dude (he even made up a new word in his launch blog video… “downloadative”… I’m always making up new words all the time so I love it!)… and he has some great connections… so JVing (a new word I just made up) w/ Jeff on this launch will be a great in to get a hold of his rolodex of REI promoters (he’s got a huge JV rolodex… I’m jealous .
The What:
Okay, when I dug into Jeff’s Go Be Productive program I was thinking that it would be a bit like Eben Pagen’s productivity course (Jeff is in his mastermind program… another great connection)… but then I dug into the membership area and it’s some damn good stuff… and it’s definitely a different take on productivity.
Here’s the product in Jeff’s own words…
“This month I’m launching the most comprehensive productivity and personal management training course ever developed for entrepreneurs.
It’s called “Go BE Productive”. The Go BE Productive course will be delivered online through a private members area, complete with video and audio training modules, written course supplements and all concepts personally taught by me.
Let me be crystal clear that this is NOT just another time management course with the typical band-aid remedies for squeezing out an extra hour of productivity here or there. This is about helping your subscribers get down to the actual source of what’s holding them back and keeping them from building the business they really want.
This course is ultimately geared toward real estate investors, internet marketers and other small business owners or entrepreneurs. The sequence and materials are specifically designed to take them deep into their own habits and behaviors, identify and dismantle the root obstacles causing the blocks, then literally catapult them to a level of focus and productivity they’ve never known previously. To put it simply, this course is changing entrepreneurial lives and your subscribers will thank you for introducing it to them.”

I’m back… really here it is in simple terms:
- Online training w/ group calls, personal coaching, and accountability (you can actually look into the members area and the content… the JV login details are on his launch blog)
- Weekly trainings
- Excellent and specific steps to be more productive
Really… you need to check out the content to get the full meal deal on what it really is… I’m not doing it justice here.
Price Point:
- Gold program pricepont: $497 (or 3 pay of $197)
- Platinum program pricepoint: $797
- Continuity $87/month
The How (how you make money that is):
First… just head on over to Jeff’s JV partner page to see the details… he’s got a great overview video, launch outline pdf, access to the members area where you can review the content, and you can join there too…
I’ll summarize them here.
Basically, it’s pretty cut and dry.
You’ll get 50% commissions on the product sales (the $497 and $797 sales)… putting $248 or $398 in your pocket for every sale. And, just from looking at the product (Jeff gives you the product on his launch blog to check out)… there will be very low return rates on this thing… and it’s a great value to compliment REI “how to” courses.
And, you get 10% on the $87/mo continuity.
Prizes:
Jeff’s got launch prizes for opt ins and sales… and he’s made it simple… but attractive… he’s paying extra cash to the top 10 JV’s ($10,000 for the top sales and $5,000 for the most opt ins)… pretty darn cool if you ask me.
I haven’t seen the launch videos and content… I’m sure they’ll be great… and from what I hear there are some pretty big JV’s promoting Jeff’s launch.
If you want to connect w/ Jeff to get on board w/ his launch here’s the details for ya…

Dwan Bent-Twyford Membership Site Launch 3/24 – 3/26
NOTE: Alrighty… I’m going to fess up big time here… and I apologize… w/ all of my traveling this past 2 weeks (Vegas, then Palm Springs, then San Francisco all in a 10 day span) this launch update slipped through the cracks on us.
We had their launch update done last week… everything was done but I didn’t follow up with my VA to make sure it was published… and I just got to the email in my inbox from Dwan’s team that reminded me of it.
So, here’s the deal… this launch is coming up soon (very soon)… and there’s a great way for you to make some money and get some subscribers in return… but you need to act fast to get Dwan and her team your bonus offer (like… before the week is over… ya, that fast). Again, us JVupdate dudes had this launch info a week back… so I’ll take the flogging on the short notice.
The cliff notes on this launch:
- Low price point ($29.95 monthly membership)
- Should convert well
- 20% continuity
- Add your bonus and get free subscribers (buyers) in return
So… here we go…
The When:
- Launch Dates: Dwan has set to open the doors on 3/24 and has 2 emails planned to go out (one on 3/24 and another on 3/26)
The Who:
- Dwan Bent-Twyford of www.theieu.com
The What:
Alrighty… Gale at Dwans office shot me over the description of her membership site launch and I don’t think I can do a better job explaining it… so I’ll just do the ol’ copy and paste below.
Here ’tis…
—
“I am very excited to announce that we are launching our brand new
member site. We are going to offer so many benefits to our members:
- A FREE website to help them attract distressed homeowners
- Weekly coaching with me or Bill – live
- Weekly training videos covering every topic in real estate
- A “members board” to ask questions and chat with others
- A members “buy & sell” area so that members can buy and sell properties to each other
- Free forms, legal documents, contracts, land trusts and more
- A FREE gift from YOU
- Access to you – our valued advisory board member
- A copy of our “How to Get Started Investing in Real Estate with No Money Down – Really” training program
- A FREE copy of my “From Denny’s to Diamonds” book
- Our FREE video of “Overcoming Your Fears”
- And much, much more!
—-
Okay, I’m back… essentially it’s a membership site at $29.99 a month that includes all of the stuff above.
If the membership base grows to enough people it could really be a great way for you to get in front of buyers… who you can then convert into your own customers down the road after you’ve built credibility and trust w/ them.
Dwan and her team are using a $1 trial offer... where the customer will get in the door for $1 for an entire month (high converting type of offer)… then the membership at $29.95 will kick in every 30 days after that.
Price Point:
- Membership pricepont: $29.95/month
The How (how you make money that is):
What Dwan and her team are giving us affiliates a couple ways to make money (one direct way… and an indirect way).
- You’ll get 20% commissions for life on each customer
- Your bonus will be injected right into their autoresponder and sales process… so over the years as people join they’ll continually see your bonus and be directed to your site go “get what you got”.
Cool?
Here’s a copy and paste of a bit more details on how affiliates will benefit.
–
“We are launching the site through a series of two letters that we’d like you to email on March 24th and 26th. We will send you the letters and you simply email them out. Most people who are launching sites now, pay you a small amount for your initial sales. We want to you to prosper by giving you 20% for life!
Another fantastic benefit for you is that we will leave your free bonus on the site for as long as you will allow us to. I want each of you to offer an amazing bonus that you can leave in place. If you want to offer a free bonus for a set time-period.that is okay, too. We are looking to accommodate you and your needs.
Every person that joins our membership site will receive an auto responder listing all the fantastic bonuses.
And so on. I realize that there will be many bonuses and to make certain that your incredible bonus does not get lost in the madness, we will send several letters to the new members reminding them of all the amazing bonuses. I will also record several videos highlighting each and every bonus separately to insure that you don’t get lost in the shuffle. In addition, if you would like us to place a 1 hour call from you talking about you, your business, and your bonus in the members section, we will do that as well. It has to be a teaching call… no sales. We will guide them to your site once they listen to the call. You will be introduced as an advisory board member and national expert in your field.
We are asked to promote many events throughout the year. We have promoted many of you several times and now we are asking the same in return. We are getting thousands of new opt ins a month and we’d like to send a letter to our new opt ins offering YOUR fantastic bonuses if they join the member site. What that means for YOU is that YOUR bonus will be continuously sent out many times this year and every year!
Your site will get many, many hits from it all. We had 2,000 new opt ins just last week from our radio and joint venture promos. That would have been 2,000 NEW people who would have been exposed to you..in just one week!”
Here’s the affiliate page link you should go to to sign up:
https://www.mcssl.com/SYS/?m=132395&c=s
Basically, it’s pretty cut and dry.
You’ll get 20% commissions for life on the $29.95 membership… that alone probably won’t really add up to a ton… but the real value can come in the fact that your bonus and offer will be put in front of every member that comes in the program multiple times (through emails, video, etc.) to maximize your exposure to the paying members. Could be a pretty darn valuable lead gen tool if the membership program gets big numbers.
If you want to connect w/ Dwan to get on board w/ her launch here’s the details for ya…
- Click here to become an affiliate
- Send Dwan your bonus by March 18th (like… asap) so I can prepare the promotional letters… (email below)
- Send Michael (email address is: Michael [at] tazsol [dot] com) a description of your promo and the link to your site by Friday, March 11th (there’s still time… get it in before 3/18).
That’s it… easy peasy.
